Christian therapist seeks right to counsel gay teens to change feelings
The Supreme Court will consider whether therapists’ free speech rights outweigh a law that bans therapy that seeks to change sexual identity. Almost 30 states have such bans.

Well-posedness for the periodic Hyperbolic nonlinear Schrödinger equations
We establish local well-posedness for the hyperbolic nonlinear Schrodinger equation (HNLS) in the critical spaces. Following the approach of Killip and Visan, we derive scale-invariant Strichartz estimates for HNLS on both rational and irrational tori, thereby removing the epsilon-loss of derivative present in the hyperbolic Strichartz estimates of Bourgain and Demeter.

Day 3: Octavia Butler.
Incredibly dark, graphic, and disturbing near-future science fiction, which has proved absolutely prophetic. In the 1990's she was writing about a charismatic Conservative Christian and white nationalist president elected in 2024, and the horrors his paramilitary followers would unleash, including forced labor & indoctrination camps. Did I mention those books include ebikes & pseudo-cellphones too? Characters fleeing north from a disastrous social collapse in Loss Angeles? This is "The Parable of the Sower" and "The Parable of the Talents" and the later was tragically rushed to an end because of Butler's declining health.
Her work deals unflinchingly with racism and the darker parts of society, and to those who might say "her depiction of social collapse is overblown," I'd say that while it's not literally the world we live in, it's *effectively* the world that the poorest of us live in. If you're a homeless undocumented latinx person in LA right now, I'm not sure how meaningfully different your world is from the one she depicts.
Her work comes with a strong content warning for lots of things, including racial violence, sexual abuse and slavery, including of children, animal harm, etc., so it's not for everyone. Reading it in 2023 was certainly an incredible trip. Her politics are really cool though; with explicit pro-LGBTQ themes and tinges of what might today be considered #SolarPunk.

Distinct dimensions for attractors of bi-Lipschitz iterated function systems
In this paper, we construct an iterated function system on the line consisting of two bi-Lipschitz contractions whose attractor has distinct lower, Hausdorff, lower box, upper box, and Assouad dimensions, thereby providing negative answers to certain folklore questions. Furthermore, as a by-product of our study of bi-Lipschitz IFSs, we construct IFSs within this family that exhibit interesting fractal behaviour. In particular, we prove the following two statements: (i) There exists a bi-Lipsc…

LoRA-fine-tuned Large Vision Models for Automated Assessment of Post-SBRT Lung Injury
This study investigates the efficacy of Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) for fine-tuning large Vision Models, DinoV2 and SwinV2, to diagnose Radiation-Induced Lung Injury (RILI) from X-ray CT scans following Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT). To evaluate the robustness and efficiency of this approach, we compare LoRA with traditional full fine-tuning and inference-only (no fine-tuning) methods. Cropped images of two sizes (50 mm3 and 75 mm3), centered at the treatment isocenter, in addition …

Spectrometry of Captured Highly Charged Ions Produced Following Antiproton Annihilations
We report the first capture and time-of-flight spectrometry of highly charged ions produced following antiproton annihilations in a Penning-Malmberg trap. At the AEgIS experiment, we employed a multi-step nested-trap technique to isolate ions from antiproton annihilations with ultra-low-density helium and argon gas. The capture and identification of highly-charged argon ions in charge-states up to $Ar^{5+}$ demonstrates a new method for in-trap synthesis. This work establishes a clear path towa…

Log2Sig: Frequency-Aware Insider Threat Detection via Multivariate Behavioral Signal Decomposition
Insider threat detection presents a significant challenge due to the deceptive nature of malicious behaviors, which often resemble legitimate user operations. However, existing approaches typically model system logs as flat event sequences, thereby failing to capture the inherent frequency dynamics and multiscale disturbance patterns embedded in user behavior. To address these limitations, we propose Log2Sig, a robust anomaly detection framework that transforms user logs into multivariate behav…
