Existence and partial regularity of suitable weak solutions to the 3D Navier-Stokes-Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equations

In this paper, we investigate the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation, which describes a two-phase mixture of the viscous incompressible fluid with particles or bubbles through a frictional force term. In the three-dimensional whole space, we construct a new class of suitable weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes-Vlasov-Fokker-Planck system satisfying energy estimates and three local or global energy inequalities of different forms. These obtained local energy inequalities play an important role in characterizing the measure of the singularity set of weak solutions. The main difficulties in deriving these inequalities lie in establishing the convergence of the density function $f$ in bounded or unbounded domains and dealing with the convergence of the non-local frictional force term. The strong convergence of both $f$ and $f \log f$ weighted by $|v|^k$ is proved by exploring some new a priori quantities of the velocity with the help of Tao's $L^p$ decomposition and the DiPerna-Lions compactness method. Moreover, as an immediate consequence of the existence result, we are able to describe the Hausdorff dimension of set of singular points of the fluid velocity $u$ and also establish the $α$-Hölder continuity of $f$ at the regular points of $u$.

Blow-up suppression for the nematic liquid crystal flow via Couette flow on $\mathbb{R}^2$

As is well known, for the harmonic heat flow or liquid crystal flow in two-dimension, the solution may blow up when the initial energy is greater than $8π$. Motivated by Lai--Lin--Wang--Wei--Zhou (CPAM, 2022), where singular solutions were constructed in the presence of small-scale velocity fields, it is natural to ask whether large-scale velocities may play a stabilizing role, preventing the concentration of blow-up. Here we show that the blow-up phenomenon can be suppressed by a Couette flow whose amplitude is large enough under a weak assumption on the anisotropic norm of the initial data. In particular, we construct examples with initial energy exceeding $8π$ that satisfy our assumptions.

ClueTracer: Question-to-Vision Clue Tracing for Training-Free Hallucination Suppression in Multimodal Reasoning

Large multimodal reasoning models solve challenging visual problems via explicit long-chain inference: they gather visual clues from images and decode clues into textual tokens. Yet this capability also increases hallucinations, where the model generates content that is not supported by the input image or the question. To understand this failure mode, we identify \emph{reasoning drift}: during clue gathering, the model over-focuses on question-irrelevant entities, diluting focus on task-relevant cues and gradually decoupling the reasoning trace from visual grounding. As a consequence, many inference-time localization or intervention methods developed for non-reasoning models fail to pinpoint the true clues in reasoning settings. Motivated by these insights, we introduce ClueRecall, a metric for assessing visual clue retrieval, and present ClueTracer, a training-free, parameter-free, and architecture-agnostic plugin for hallucination suppression. ClueTracer starts from the question and traces how key clues propagate along the model's reasoning pathway (question $\rightarrow$ outputs $\rightarrow$ visual tokens), thereby localizing task-relevant patches while suppressing spurious attention to irrelevant regions. Remarkably, \textbf{without any additional training}, ClueTracer improves all \textbf{reasoning} architectures (including \texttt{R1-OneVision}, \texttt{Ocean-R1}, \texttt{MM-Eureka}, \emph{etc}.) by $\mathbf{1.21\times}$ on reasoning benchmarks. When transferred to \textbf{non-reasoning} settings, it yields a $\mathbf{1.14\times}$ gain.

Atomic imaging of 2D transition metal dihalides

Transition metal di-iodides such as FeI2, NiI2 and CoI2 are an emerging class of 2D magnets exhibiting rich and diverse magnetic behaviour, but their study at the monolayer limit has been severely hindered by fabrication challenges due to their air-sensitivity. Here, we introduce a polymer-free method for clean, rapid, and high-yield assembly of hermetically encapsulated suspended samples of air-sensitive monolayers. Applying it to di-iodides enables atomic resolution characterisation of thin samples - down to the monolayer limit - for the first time. Our imaging, combined with complementary first-principles calculations, reveals an unusually small energy barrier between alternate stable stacking polytypes in few-layer films, enabling extrinsic control of the stacking phase. We also observe stable isolated iodine vacancies that do not aggregate to form extended structures, and identify and verify the stability of the various edge configurations of thin samples. These results establish the unique structural characteristics of these materials in the thin limit, and more broadly demonstrate the utility of our transfer platform for creating atomically clean suspended vdW heterostructures.

CoPHo: Classifier-guided Conditional Topology Generation with Persistent Homology

The structure of topology underpins much of the research on performance and robustness, yet available topology data are typically scarce, necessitating the generation of synthetic graphs with desired properties for testing or release. Prior diffusion-based approaches either embed conditions into the diffusion model, requiring retraining for each attribute and hindering real-time applicability, or use classifier-based guidance post-training, which does not account for topology scale and practical constraints. In this paper, we show from a discrete perspective that gradients from a pre-trained graph-level classifier can be incorporated into the discrete reverse diffusion posterior to steer generation toward specified structural properties. Based on this insight, we propose Classifier-guided Conditional Topology Generation with Persistent Homology (CoPHo), which builds a persistent homology filtration over intermediate graphs and interprets features as guidance signals that steer generation toward the desired properties at each denoising step. Experiments on four generic/network datasets demonstrate that CoPHo outperforms existing methods at matching target metrics, and we further validate its transferability on the QM9 molecular dataset.

Blow-up suppression of the Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system via Taylor-Couette flow

Motivated by the use of Taylor-Couette flow in extracorporeal circulation devices [K$\ddot{\rm o}$rfer et al., 2003, 26(4): 331-338], where it leads to an accumulation of platelets and plasma proteins in the vortex center and therefore to a decreased probability of contact between platelets and material surfaces and its protein adsorption per square unit is significantly lower than laminar flow. Increased platelet adhesion or protein adsorption on the device surface can induce platelet aggregation or thrombosis, which is analogous to the ``blow-up phenomenon" in mathematical modeling. Here we mathematically analyze this stability mechanism and demonstrate that sufficiently strong flow can prevent blow-up from occurring. In details, we investigate the two-dimensional Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system in an annular domain around a Taylor-Couette flow $U(r,θ)=A\big(r+\frac{1}{r} \big)(-\sinθ, \cosθ)^{T}$ with $(r,θ)\in[1,R]\times\mathbb{S}^{1}$, and prove that the solutions are globally bounded without any smallness restriction on the initial cell mass or velocity when $A$ is large.

Quantitative blow-up suppression for the Patlak-Keller-Segel(-Navier-Stokes) system via Couette flow on $\mathbb{R}^2$

It is well known that solutions to the Patlak--Keller--Segel system on $\mathbb{R}^2$ blow up in finite time if the initial mass exceeds $8π$. In this paper, we investigate the mixing effect induced by a Couette flow $(Ay, 0)$ with a quantitatively determined amplitude $A$, which suppresses bacterial aggregation. For the Patlak--Keller--Segel system advected by such a flow on $\mathbb{R}^2$, we prove that the solutions remain global in time even for large initial mass, provided the amplitude $A$ is sufficiently large. Specifically, global well-posedness holds if $A$ satisfies a lower bound of the form $C_* \left(\| \langle D_x\rangle^{m} \langle {D_x}^{-1}\rangle^εn_{\mathrm{in}} \|_{L^2}^2+1\right)^{9/2}$. A notable feature of our result is the explicit estimate of the sufficient constant, given by $C_* = 2,058,614$. Furthermore, for the coupled Patlak--Keller--Segel--Navier--Stokes system near the Couette flow, we establish an analogous global existence result, provided the amplitude is sufficiently large in form of $C_*\|(n_{\rm in}, |D_x|^{1/3} n_{\rm in},ω_{\rm in})\|_{Y_{m,ε}}^9$.

Global bounded solutions of the 3D Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system via Couette flow and logistic source

As is well-known, the solutions to the Patlak-Keller-Segel system in 3D may blow up in finite time regardless of any initial cell mass. In this paper, we investigate the existence of global bounded solutions of the 3D Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system with a large initial cell mass via Couette flow or logistic source in a finite channel. On the one hand, it is proved that as long as the Couette flow is strong enough and the initial velocity is small, the bounded solutions of the system are global in time without any limitation on the initial mass $M$ if the logistic source term exists. On the other hand, if the logistic source term vanishes, it is proved that as long as the Couette flow is strong enough and the initial velocity is small, the solutions with a finite initial mass $M$, whose lower bound is $ \left(\frac{8π}{9}\right)^-$, are global in time.

SAC-MIL: Spatial-Aware Correlated Multiple Instance Learning for Histopathology Whole Slide Image Classification

We propose Spatial-Aware Correlated Multiple Instance Learning (SAC-MIL) for performing WSI classification. SAC-MIL consists of a positional encoding module to encode position information and a SAC block to perform full instance correlations. The positional encoding module utilizes the instance coordinates within the slide to encode the spatial relationships instead of the instance index in the input WSI sequence. The positional encoding module can also handle the length extrapolation issue where the training and testing sequences have different lengths. The SAC block is an MLP-based method that performs full instance correlation in linear time complexity with respect to the sequence length. Due to the simple structure of MLP, it is easy to deploy since it does not require custom CUDA kernels, compared to Transformer-based methods for WSI classification. SAC-MIL has achieved state-of-the-art performance on the CAMELYON-16, TCGA-LUNG, and TCGA-BRAC datasets. The code will be released upon acceptance.

Stability threshold of Couette flow for Boussinesq equations in $\mathbb{R}^2$

This paper establishes the asymptotic stability threshold for the Couette flow $(y,0)$ under the 2D Boussinesq system in $\mathbb{R}^2$. It was proved that for initial perturbations in Sobolev spaces with controlled low horizontal frequencies, the stability threshold is at most $\left\{\frac{1}{3}+, \frac{2}{3}+\right\}$, extending the known threshold results from the periodic case $\mathbb{T}_x \times \mathbb{R}_y$ to the whole space. The core innovations are twofold: First, the $\langle D_x^{-1} \rangle$ control on the initial data simultaneously resolves horizontal frequency singularities and optimizes integral indices when applying Young's convolution inequality. Second, we develop a modified multiplier $\mathcal{M}_3$ that effectively absorbs the $|D_x|^{1/3}$ derivative structure induced by the temperature equation while handling nonlinear echo cascades.

Nexus-INR: Diverse Knowledge-guided Arbitrary-Scale Multimodal Medical Image Super-Resolution

Arbitrary-resolution super-resolution (ARSR) provides crucial flexibility for medical image analysis by adapting to diverse spatial resolutions. However, traditional CNN-based methods are inherently ill-suited for ARSR, as they are typically designed for fixed upsampling factors. While INR-based methods overcome this limitation, they still struggle to effectively process and leverage multi-modal images with varying resolutions and details. In this paper, we propose Nexus-INR, a Diverse Knowledge-guided ARSR framework, which employs varied information and downstream tasks to achieve high-quality, adaptive-resolution medical image super-resolution. Specifically, Nexus-INR contains three key components. A dual-branch encoder with an auxiliary classification task to effectively disentangle shared anatomical structures and modality-specific features; a knowledge distillation module using cross-modal attention that guides low-resolution modality reconstruction with high-resolution reference, enhanced by self-supervised consistency loss; an integrated segmentation module that embeds anatomical semantics to improve both reconstruction quality and downstream segmentation performance. Experiments on the BraTS2020 dataset for both super-resolution and downstream segmentation demonstrate that Nexus-INR outperforms state-of-the-art methods across various metrics.

Contrastive Cross-Bag Augmentation for Multiple Instance Learning-based Whole Slide Image Classification

Recent pseudo-bag augmentation methods for Multiple Instance Learning (MIL)-based Whole Slide Image (WSI) classification sample instances from a limited number of bags, resulting in constrained diversity. To address this issue, we propose Contrastive Cross-Bag Augmentation ($C^2Aug$) to sample instances from all bags with the same class to increase the diversity of pseudo-bags. However, introducing new instances into the pseudo-bag increases the number of critical instances (e.g., tumor instances). This increase results in a reduced occurrence of pseudo-bags containing few critical instances, thereby limiting model performance, particularly on test slides with small tumor areas. To address this, we introduce a bag-level and group-level contrastive learning framework to enhance the discrimination of features with distinct semantic meanings, thereby improving model performance. Experimental results demonstrate that $C^2Aug$ consistently outperforms state-of-the-art approaches across multiple evaluation metrics.

Proximity screening greatly enhances electronic quality of graphene

The electronic quality of two-dimensional systems is crucial when exploring quantum transport phenomena. In semiconductor heterostructures, decades of optimization have yielded record-quality two-dimensional gases with transport and quantum mobilities reaching close to 10$^8$ and 10$^6$ cm$^2$/Vs, respectively. Although the quality of graphene devices has also been improving, it remains comparatively lower. Here we report a transformative improvement in the electronic quality of graphene by employing graphite gates placed in its immediate proximity, at 1 nm separation. The resulting screening reduces charge inhomogeneity by two orders of magnitude, bringing it down to a few 10$^7$ cm$^-2$ and limiting potential fluctuations to less than 1 meV. Quantum mobilities reach 10$^7$ cm$^2$/Vs, surpassing those in the highest-quality semiconductor heterostructures by an order of magnitude, and the transport mobilities match their record. This quality enables Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in fields as low as 1 mT and quantum Hall plateaus below 5 mT. Although proximity screening predictably suppresses electron-electron interactions, fractional quantum Hall states remain observable with their energy gaps reduced only by a factor of 3-5 compared to unscreened devices, demonstrating that many-body phenomena at spatial scales shorter than 10 nm remain robust. Our results offer a reliable route to improving electronic quality in graphene and other two-dimensional systems, which should facilitate the exploration of new physics previously obscured by disorder.

Suppression of blow-up for the 3D Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system via the Couette flow

As is well known, for the 3D Patlak-Keller-Segel system, regardless of whether they are parabolic-elliptic or parabolic-parabolic forms, finite-time blow-up may occur for arbitrarily small values of the initial mass. In this paper, it is proved for the first time that one can prevent the finite-time blow-up when the initial mass is less than a certain critical threshold via the stabilizing effect of the moving Navier-Stokes flows. In details, we investigate the nonlinear stability of the Couette flow $(Ay, 0, 0)$ in the Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system and show that if the Couette flow is sufficiently strong (A is large enough), then the solutions for Patlak-Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system are global in time provided that the initial velocity is sufficiently small and the initial cell mass is less than $\frac{24}{5} π^2$.

Liouville type theorems for the fractional Navier-Stokes equations without the integrability condition of velocity in $\mathbb{R}^3$

Motivated by the classification of solutions of harmonic functions, we investigate Liouville type theorems for the fractional Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$ under some conditions on the boundedness of fractional derivatives. We prove that the smooth solution must be a trivial solution provided that it uniformly converges to a nonzero constant vector at infinity by applying Lizorkin's multiplier theorem to establish \(L^p\) estimates for the fractional linear Oseen system and Coifman-McIntosh-Meyer type commutator estimates for the dissipation term. It is noteworthy that the integrability of velocity is not required here.

Stability threshold of Couette flow for 3D Boussinesq system in Sobolev spaces

In this paper, we investigate the nonlinear stability and transition threshold for the 3D Boussinesq system in Sobolev space under the high Reynolds number and small thermal diffusion in $\mathbb{T}\times\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{T} $. It is proved that if the initial velocity $v_{\rm in}$ and the initial temperature $ θ_{\rm in} $ satisfy $ \|v_{\rm in}-(y,0,0)\|_{H^{2}}\leq \varepsilonν, \|θ_{\rm in}\|_{H^{2}}\leq \varepsilonν^{2} $, respectively for some $ \varepsilon>0 $ independent of the Reynolds number or thermal diffusion, then the solutions of 3D Boussinesq system are global in time.

Multi-Sensor Fusion-Based Mobile Manipulator Remote Control for Intelligent Smart Home Assistance

This paper proposes a wearable-controlled mobile manipulator system for intelligent smart home assistance, integrating MEMS capacitive microphones, IMU sensors, vibration motors, and pressure feedback to enhance human-robot interaction. The wearable device captures forearm muscle activity and converts it into real-time control signals for mobile manipulation. The wearable device achieves an offline classification accuracy of 88.33\%\ across six distinct movement-force classes for hand gestures by using a CNN-LSTM model, while real-world experiments involving five participants yield a practical accuracy of 83.33\%\ with an average system response time of 1.2 seconds. In Human-Robot synergy in navigation and grasping tasks, the robot achieved a 98\%\ task success rate with an average trajectory deviation of only 3.6 cm. Finally, the wearable-controlled mobile manipulator system achieved a 93.3\%\ gripping success rate, a transfer success of 95.6\%\, and a full-task success rate of 91.1\%\ during object grasping and transfer tests, in which a total of 9 object-texture combinations were evaluated. These three experiments' results validate the effectiveness of MEMS-based wearable sensing combined with multi-sensor fusion for reliable and intuitive control of assistive robots in smart home scenarios.

DIVD: Deblurring with Improved Video Diffusion Model

Video deblurring presents a considerable challenge owing to the complexity of blur, which frequently results from a combination of camera shakes, and object motions. In the field of video deblurring, many previous works have primarily concentrated on distortion-based metrics, such as PSNR. However, this approach often results in a weak correlation with human perception and yields reconstructions that lack realism. Diffusion models and video diffusion models have respectively excelled in the fields of image and video generation, particularly achieving remarkable results in terms of image authenticity and realistic perception. However, due to the computational complexity and challenges inherent in adapting diffusion models, there is still uncertainty regarding the potential of video diffusion models in video deblurring tasks. To explore the viability of video diffusion models in the task of video deblurring, we introduce a diffusion model specifically for this purpose. In this field, leveraging highly correlated information between adjacent frames and addressing the challenge of temporal misalignment are crucial research directions. To tackle these challenges, many improvements based on the video diffusion model are introduced in this work. As a result, our model outperforms existing models and achieves state-of-the-art results on a range of perceptual metrics. Our model preserves a significant amount of detail in the images while maintaining competitive distortion metrics. Furthermore, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first time the diffusion model has been applied in video deblurring to overcome the limitations mentioned above.
