On topological solutions to a generalized Chern-Simons equation on lattice graphs

For $n \geq 2$, consider $\mathbb{Z}^n$ as a lattice graph. We explore a generalized Chern-Simons equation on $\mathbb{Z}^n$. Employing the method of exhaustion, we prove that there exists a global solution that also qualifies as a topological solution. Our results extend those of Hua et al. [arXiv:2310.13905] and complement the findings of Chao and Hou [J. Math. Anal. Appl. $\bf{519}$(1), 126787(2023)], as well as those of Hou and Qiao [J. Math. Phys. $\bf{65}$(8), 081503(2024)].

A cytokine-enhanced viral infection model with CTL immune response, distributed delay and saturation incidence

In this paper, we propose a delayed cytokine-enhanced viral infection model incorporating saturation incidence and immune response. We compute the basic reproduction numbers and introduce a convex cone to discuss the impact of non-negative initial data on solutions. By defining appropriate Lyapunov functionals and employing LaSalle's invariance principle, we investigate the stability of three equilibria: the disease-free equilibrium, the immunity-inactivated equilibrium, and the immunity-activated equilibrium. We establish conditions under which these equilibria are globally asymptotically stable. Numerical analyses not only corroborate the theoretical results but also reveal that intervention in virus infection can be achieved by extending the delay period.

Existence and asymptotic behaviors of solutions to Chern-Simons systems and equations on finite graphs

In this paper, we consider a system of equations arising from the $\text{U}(1)\times \text{U}(1)$ Abelian Chern-Simons model \begin{eqnarray*}\left\{\begin{aligned} Δu &=λ\left(a(b-a)\mathrm{e}^u-b(b-a)\mathrm{e}^{\upsilon}+a^2\mathrm{e}^{2u}-ab\mathrm{e}^{2\upsilon}+b(b-a)\mathrm{e}^{u+\upsilon} \right)+4π\sum\limits_{j=1}^{k_1}m_jδ_{p_j},\\ Δ\upsilon&=λ\left(-b(b-a)\mathrm{e}^u+a(b-a)\mathrm{e}^{\upsilon}-ab\mathrm{e}^{2u}+a^2\mathrm{e}^{2\upsilon}+b(b-a)\mathrm{e}^{u+\upsilon} \right)+4π\sum\limits_{j=1}^{k_2}n_jδ_{q_j}, \end{aligned} \right. \end{eqnarray*} on finite graphs. Here $λ>0$, $b>a>0$, $m_j>0\, (j=1,2,\cdot\cdot\cdot,k_1)$, $n_j>0\,(j=1,2,\cdot\cdot\cdot,k_2)$, $δ_{p}$ is the Dirac delta mass at vertex $p$. We establish the iteration scheme and prove existence of solutions. We also develop a new method to get the asymptotic behaviors of solutions as $λ$ goes to infinity. This method is also applicable to the Chern-Simons system $$\left\{\begin{aligned} Δu &=λ\mathrm{e}^{\upsilon}(\mathrm{e}^{u}-1) +4π\sum\limits_{j=1}^{k_1}m_jδ_{p_j},\\ Δ\upsilon&=λ\mathrm{e}^{u}(\mathrm{e}^{\upsilon}-1)+4π\sum\limits_{j=1}^{k_2}n_jδ_{q_j}, \end{aligned} \right. $$ and the classical Chern-Simons equation $$ Δu=λ\mathrm{e}^u(\mathrm{e}^u-1)+4π\sum\limits_{j=1}^{N}δ_{p_j}.$$

Crystallization-Arrested Viscoelastic Phase Separation in Semiconducting Polymer Gels

Through a combination of rheological characterization and temperature-variable imaging methods, a novel gelation pathway in dilute solutions of a semiconducting polymer to achieve interconnected, crystalline networks with hierarchical porosity is reported. Upon rapid cooling, solutions of regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (RR-P3HT) in ortho-dichlorobenzene formed thermoreversible gels. Temperature-variable confocal microscopy revealed cooling-induced structural rearrangement to progress through viscoelastic phase separation. The phase separation process arrested prematurely during the formation of micron-sized solvent-rich "holes" within the RR-P3HT matrix due to intrachain crystallization. Cryogen-based scanning electron microscopy of RR P3HT gels revealed the existence of an interfibrillar network exhibiting nano-sized pores. Remarkably, these networks formed to equal gel strengths when a third component, either small molecule phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) or non-crystallizing regiorandom (Rra)-P3HT, was added to the solution. Organic solar cells in which the active layers were deposited from phase-separated solutions displayed 45% higher efficiency compared to reference cells.
