Conditions for Large-Sample Majorization of Pairs of Flat States in Terms of $α$-$z$ Relative Entropies
In this work, we offer the first operational interpretation of the $α$-$z$ relative entropies, which were introduced by Jakšić {\it et al.} \cite{Jaksic2012} and Audenaert and Datta \cite{Audenaert_Datta_2015}, where the $α$ and $z$ parameters are truly independent from each other. Namely, we show that these relative entropies appear in the conditions for large-sample or catalytic relative majorization of pairs of flat states and certain generalizations of them. Additionally, the optimal ra…

Reports of some feds shooting pepperball shots from the parking structure into a crowd that refuses to disperse. Pepperballs met with chants of "Fuck you" from the crowd." — Bluesky

Machine Learning-Driven Enzyme Mining: Opportunities, Challenges, and Future Perspectives
Enzyme mining is rapidly evolving as a data-driven strategy to identify biocatalysts with tailored functions from the vast landscape of uncharacterized proteins. The integration of machine learning into these workflows enables high-throughput prediction of enzyme functions, including Enzyme Commission numbers, Gene Ontology terms, substrate specificity, and key catalytic properties such as kinetic parameters, optimal temperature, pH, solubility, and thermophilicity. This review provides a syste…

Mass-transport-limited reaction rates and molecular diffusion in the van der Waals gap beneath graphene
The confinement of molecules within the van der Waals (vdW) gap between a two-dimensional 2D material and a catalytic substrate offers a promising route toward the development of molecule-selective catalysts with increased reaction rates. However, identifying the kinetic limitations of such confined reactions remains challenging. Here, we employ an inverted wedding-cake configuration of multilayer graphene on platinum to study the dynamics of graphene etching in the vdW gap by various molecules…

Topology induced modifications in the critical behavior of the Yaldram Khan catalytic reaction model
In this work, we investigated how the use of complex networks as catalytic surfaces can affect the phase diagram of the Yaldram-Khan model, as well as how the order of the phase transitions present in the seminal work behaves when the randomness is added to the model. The study was conducted by taking into consideration two well-known random networks, the Erdos-Renyi network (ERN), with its long-range randomness, and the random geometric graph (RGG), with its spatially constrained randomness. W…

Real-space methods for ab initio modelling of surfaces and interfaces under external potential bias
Accurate ab initio modelling of surfaces and interfaces, especially under an applied external potential bias, is important for describing and characterizing various phenomena that occur in electronic, catalytic, and energy storage devices. Leveraging the ability of real-space density functional theory (DFT) codes to accommodate generic boundary conditions, we introduce two methods for applying an external potential bias that can be suitable for modelling surfaces and interfaces. In the first me…
