2025 NFL midseason team grades: Colts, Patriots earn 'A' for unexpected rise; Bengals get 'F' for poor defense

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/…

A federal vaccine committee decided on Friday to end the decades-long recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B,
a highly infectious virus that leads to chronic liver disease in most infected children.
The vote was a victory for Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has sought for decades to overhaul the childhood vaccine schedule.
But the divisiveness and dysfunction of the committee in making the decision raises questions about the r…

Clique number of xor-powers of Kneser graphs
Let $f_\ell(n, k)$ denote the clique number of the xor-product of $\ell$ isomorphic Kneser graphs KG(n,k). Alon and Lubetzky investigated the case of complete graphs as a coding theory problem and showed $f_\ell(n,1)\leq \ell n +1$. Imolay, Kocsis, and Schweitzer proved that $f_2(n,k)\leq n/k +c(k)$. Here, the order of magnitude of $c(k)$ is determined to be $Θ\left( k \binom{2k}{k} \right)$. By explicit constructions and by an algebraic proof, it is shown that $\ell n- 2\ell-1 \leq f_\ell(n…

The centered maximal operator removes the non-concave Cantor part from the gradient
We study regularity of the centered Hardy--Littlewood maximal function $M f$ of a function $f$ of bounded variation in $\mathbb R^d$, $d\in \mathbb N$. In particular, we show that at $|D^c f|$-a.e. point $x$ where $f$ has a non-concave blow-up, it holds that $M f(x)>f^*(x)$. We further deduce from this that if the variation measure of $f$ has no jump part and its Cantor part has non-concave blow-ups, then BV regularity of $M f$ can be upgraded to Sobolev regularity.

Noncoincidence $f(Q)$-Cosmology with Dark Matter Coupled to Gravity
We investigate FLRW cosmology in the framework of symmetric teleparallel $f(Q)$ gravity with a nonminimal coupling between dark matter and the gravitational field. In the noncoincidence gauge, the field equations admit an equivalent multi-scalar field representation, which we investigate the phase-space using the Hubble-normalization approach. We classify all stationary points for arbitrary function $f(Q)$ and we discuss the physical properties of the asymptotic solutions. For the power-law the…

Hardness and Algorithmic Results for Roman \{3\}-Domination
A Roman $\{3\}$-dominating function on a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a function $f: V \rightarrow \{0, 1, 2, 3\}$ such that for each vertex $u \in V$, if $f(u) = 0$ then $\sum_{v \in N(u)} f(v) \geq 3$ and if $f(u) = 1$ then $\sum_{v \in N(u)} f(v) \geq 2$. The weight of a Roman $\{3\}$-dominating function $f$ is $\sum_{u \in V} f(u)$. The objective of \rtd{} is to compute a Roman $\{3\}$-dominating function of minimum weight.

How Do Language Models Compose Functions?
While large language models (LLMs) appear to be increasingly capable of solving compositional tasks, it is an open question whether they do so using compositional mechanisms. In this work, we investigate how feedforward LLMs solve two-hop factual recall tasks, which can be expressed compositionally as $g(f(x))$. We first confirm that modern LLMs continue to suffer from the "compositionality gap": i.e. their ability to compute both $z = f(x)$ and $y = g(z)$ does not entail their ability to compu…

Symmetric Division of Linear Ordinary Differential Operators
The symmetric product of two ordinary linear differential operators $L_1,L_2$ is an operator whose solution set contains the product $f_1f_2$ of any solution $f_1$ of $L_1$ and any solution $f_2$ of~$L_2$. It is well known how to compute the symmetric product of two given operators $L_1,L_2$. In this paper we consider the corresponding division problem: given a symmetric product $L$ and one of its factors, what can we say about the other factors?

Some of the nation’s top health officials and Donald Trump have cast doubt on a vaccine that doctors call lifesaving.
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has repeatedly questioned whether babies should continue to receive the vaccine on their first day of life,
arguing that the disease is mainly transmitted through sexual contact and sharing needles.
But the virus can also pass from mother to child at birth.
In September, Mr. Trump said that he thought children …

Hepatitis B Vaccine, Once a Public Health Win, Is Under Threat From RFK Jr.
Rates of the disease have fallen since 1991, when all newborns began receiving the shot. An influential panel is scheduled to vote Thursday on eligibility for the vaccine.

Non-singular Bouncing Cosmology in $f(R,G,T)$--Quintom model

https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.00688 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2510.00688

Non-singular Bouncing Cosmology in $f(R,G,T)$--Quintom model
We present a unified framework for non-singular bouncing cosmologies in modified gravity, combining $f(R,G,T)$ geometry with quintom scalar dynamics in a flat FLRW universe. While single-field models achieve phantom divide line (PDL) crossing and stable bounces, our $f(R,G,T)$-quintom coupling provides a novel implementation of a \textit{double} PDL crossing of $ω_{\text{eff}}$ during the bounce. We address stability concerns through Hamiltonian analysis, showing that FLRW symmetry constrain…

There are siblings of $χ$ which are permutations for $n$ even
Let $1$ be the all-one vector and $\odot$ denote the component-wise multiplication of two vectors in $\mathbb F_2^n$. We study the vector space $Γ_n$ over $\mathbb F_2$ generated by the functions $γ_{2k}:\mathbb F_2^n \to \mathbb F_2^n, k\geq 0$, where $$ γ_{2k} = S^{2k}\odot(1+S^{2k-1})\odot(1+S^{2k-3})\odot\ldots\odot(1+S) $$ and $S:\mathbb F_2^n\to\mathbb F_2^n$ is the cyclic left shift function. The functions in $Γ_n$ are shift-invariant and the well known $χ$ function used in several …

Opprop:NRK må stemme mot Israels deltakelse!
Palestinakomiteen i Norge krever at NRK tar et tydelig standpunkt mot Israels deltakelse i Eurovision Song Contest 2026. Som allmennkringkaster har NRK et særskilt ansvar.
Vi oppfordrer alle til å signere og dele oppropet som skal overleveres til NRK fŸr avstemmingen i European Broadcasting Union (EBU) som er i starten av desember.

Energy conditions and gravitational baryogenesis in $f(R, {\cal R})$ gravity

Energy conditions and gravitational baryogenesis in $f(R, {\cal R})$ gravity
In this work, first we examine the energy conditions in the context of the generalized metric-Palatini hybrid gravity, known as $f(R, {\cal R})$ gravity. We show that for the proposed model in this study, {\it i.e.} $ f(R, {\cal R})= R +α{\cal R}^{n} $, one of the four fundamental energy conditions, specifically the strong energy condition, does not hold for some values of $n$. Therefore, it seems that hybrid gravity can provide a model for the accelerated expansion of the universe. In continu…

Furst Haugen forstår tydeligvis ikke hvordan politikk virker. Ved å «nekte å ta side» så *har* NRK tatt side. De har tatt side med de som mener det er helt greit at et land som begår et aktivt folkemord får lov til å renvaske seg gjennom en festlig musikkonkurranse. Den falske påstanden om å «ikke ta side» vil alltid bekrefte overfor overgriperen at den kan fortsette som fŸr uten konsekvenser.

Schur log-concavity and the quantum Pascal triangle

Schur log-concavity and the quantum Pascal triangle
We say a sequence $f_0, f_1, f_2, \ldots$ of symmetric functions is Schur log-concave if $f_n^2 - f_{n-1}f_{n+1}$ is Schur positive for all $n\ge1$. We conjecture that a very general class of sequences of Schur functions satisfies this property, and show it for sequences of Schur functions indexed by partitions with growing first part and column. Our findings are related to work of Lam, Postnikov and Pylyavskyy on Schur positivity, and of Butler, Sagan, and the second author on $q$-log-concavit…

While officially unconfirmed,
the air base is widely believed to be the host to U.S. nuclear weapons under NATO’s nuclear sharing arrangements.
The base is also set to serve as the home to F-35 fighter jets beginning in 2027, Belga News Agency reported.
The incident comes amid a surge in mysterious drone sightings across European countries,
raising fears of Russian involvement in hybrid warfare and renewed concern about the alliance's security

Cosmological Scenarios in $f(Q,C)$ gravity with a dynamical degree of freedom

Cosmological Scenarios in $f(Q,C)$ gravity with a dynamical degree of freedom
The $f(Q,C)$ theory, which extends symmetric teleparallel gravity by including the boundary term $C$ in addition to the non-metricity scalar $Q$, provides a unifying framework that encompasses both $f(Q)$ and $f(\mathring{R})$ gravities. In this work, we develop a comprehensive dynamical system analysis of $f(Q,C)$ cosmology formulated within the non-coincident affine connection branches. Unlike the coincident case, these branches introduce a dynamical degree of freedom that significantly enric…
