Mehr als zwei Drittel der im Jahr 2024 errichteten Wohngebäude heizen mit Wärmepumpen
In immer mehr neuen Wohngebäuden in Deutschland werden Wärmepumpen zum Heizen genutzt. Mehr als zwei Drittel (69,4 %) der knapp 76 100 im Jahr 2024 fertiggestellten Wohngebäude nutzen Wärmepumpen zur primären, also überwiegend für das Heizen eingesetzten Energie. Gegenüber 2023 stieg der Anteil um rund 5 Prozentpunkte, gegenüber 2014 (31,8 %) hat er sich mehr als verdoppelt, wie das Statistische Bundesamt (Destatis) mitteilt. Wärmepumpen kommen vor allem in Ein- und Zweifamilienhä…

Change of bifurcation type in 2D free boundary model of a moving cell with nonlinear diffusion
We introduce a 2D free boundary problem with nonlinear diffusion that models a living cell moving on a substrate. We prove that this nonlinearity results in a qualitative of solution behavior compared to the linear diffusion case (Rybalko et al. TAMS 2023), namely the switch between direct and inverse pitchfork bifurcation. Our objectives are twofold: (i) develop a rigorous framework to prove existence of bifurcation and determining its type (subcritical vs. superctitical) and (ii) the deri…

"The environmental burden of the United States’ bitcoin mining boom
Bitcoin mines—massive computing clusters generating cryptocurrency tokens—consume vast amounts of electricity. .... From mid-2022 to mid-2023, the 34 mines consumed 32.3 terawatt-hours of electricity—33% more than Los Angeles—85% of which came from fossil fuels. We estimated that 1.9 million Americans were exposed to ≥0.1 μg/m3 of additional PM2.5 pollution from Bitcoin mines"

The environmental burden of the United States’ bitcoin mining boom - Nature Communications
The paper maps air pollution from power plants supplying electricity to US Bitcoin mines. It finds that 1.9 million people in 2022-2023 breathed toxic amounts of Bitcoin mine attributable pollution, particularly around New York City and Houston.

Gaming the Metrics? Bibliometric Anomalies and the Integrity Crisis in Global University Rankings
Global university rankings have transformed how certain institutions define success, often elevating metrics over meaning. This study examines universities with rapid research growth suggestive of metric-driven behaviors. Among the 1,000 most publishing institutions, 98 showed extreme output increases between 2018-2019 and 2023-2024. Of these, eighteen were selected for exhibiting sharp declines in first and corresponding authorship. Compared to national, regional, and international norms, thes…

Pairwise Rearrangement is Fixed-Parameter Tractable in the Single Cut-and-Join Model
Genome rearrangement is a common model for molecular evolution. In this paper, we consider the Pairwise Rearrangement problem, which takes as input two genomes and asks for the number of minimum-length sequences of permissible operations transforming the first genome into the second. In the Single Cut-and-Join model (Bergeron, Medvedev, & Stoye, J. Comput. Biol. 2010), Pairwise Rearrangement is $\#\textsf{P}$-complete (Bailey, et. al., COCOON 2023), which implies that exact sampling is intracta…
