Semantics, Specification Logic, and Hoare Logic of Exact Real Computation

We propose a simple imperative programming language, ERC, that features arbitrary real numbers as primitive data type, exactly. Equipped with a denotational semantics, ERC provides a formal programming language-theoretic foundation to the algorithmic processing of real numbers. In order to capture multi-valuedness, which is well-known to be essential to real number computation, we use a Plotkin powerdomain and make our programming language semantics computable and complete: all and only real functions computable in computable analysis can be realized in ERC. The base programming language supports real arithmetic as well as implicit limits; expansions support additional primitive operations (such as a user-defined exponential function). By restricting integers to Presburger arithmetic and real coercion to the `precision' embedding $\mathbb{Z}\ni p\mapsto 2^p\in\mathbb{R}$, we arrive at a first-order theory which we prove to be decidable and model-complete. Based on said logic as specification language for preconditions and postconditions, we extend Hoare logic to a sound (w.r.t. the denotational semantics) and expressive system for deriving correct total correctness specifications. Various examples demonstrate the practicality and convenience of our language and the extended Hoare logic.

Illuminating the coevolution of photosynthesis and Bacteria

Life harnessing light energy transformed the relationship between biology and Earth-bringing a massive flux of organic carbon and oxidants to Earth's surface that gave way to today's organotrophy- and respiration-dominated biosphere. However, our understanding of how life drove this transition has largely relied on the geological record; much remains unresolved due to the complexity and paucity of the genetic record tied to photosynthesis. Here, through holistic phylogenetic comparison of the bacterial domain and all photosynthetic machinery (totally spanning >10,000 genomes), we identify evolutionary congruence between three independent biological systems-bacteria, (bacterio)chlorophyll-mediated light metabolism (chlorophototrophy), and carbon fixation-and uncover their intertwined history. Our analyses uniformly mapped progenitors of extant light-metabolizing machinery (reaction centers, [bacterio]chlorophyll synthases, and magnesium-chelatases) and enzymes facilitating the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle (form I RuBisCO and phosphoribulokinase) to the same ancient Terrabacteria organism near the base of the bacterial domain. These phylogenies consistently showed that extant phototrophs ultimately derived light metabolism from this bacterium, the last phototroph common ancestor (LPCA). LPCA was a non-oxygen-generating (anoxygenic) phototroph that already possessed carbon fixation and two reaction centers, a type I analogous to extant forms and a primitive type II. Analyses also indicate chlorophototrophy originated before LPCA. We further reconstructed evolution of chlorophototrophs/chlorophototrophy post-LPCA, including vertical inheritance in Terrabacteria, the rise of oxygen-generating chlorophototrophy in one descendant branch near the Great Oxidation Event, and subsequent emergence of Cyanobacteria. These collectively unveil a detailed view of the coevolution of light metabolism and Bacteria having clear congruence with the geological record.

Compositional evidence for chondrule origins of low‐Ca pyroxenes in comet Wild 2 and a giant cluster IDP

AbstractA literature compilation of 1136 low‐Ca pyroxene compositions from chondrules from 12 primitive type 2–3 carbonaceous, ordinary and enstatite chondrite groups define unique regions on an Al2O3 and Cr2O3 diagram when compared to low‐Ca pyroxenes from equilibrated type 4‐6 chondrites. Measured compositions of 100 low‐Ca pyroxenes from comet Wild 2 and a giant cluster IDP of probable cometary origin are similar to each other and fall in the type 2–3 chondrite chondrule region suggesting that most of the pyroxenes likely formed in the solar nebula like conventional chondrules. The data imply that most low Ca‐pyroxenes from comet Wild 2 and the giant cluster IDP formed from igneous crystallization processes and did not experience significant thermal metamorphism, indicating that the low‐Ca pyroxenes were unlikely incorporated into large parent bodies prior to accretion in their respective comet bodies. An intriguing group of nine low‐Ca pyroxenes from comet Wild 2 with low Cr and Al that fall where type 4–6 chondrites are located are interpreted as products of condensation. The compositional data combined with previously measured oxygen isotopes on 17 low‐Ca pyroxenes support earlier conclusions that comet samples have links with carbonaceous, ordinary, and possibly enstatite chondrite groups. Our results provide additional evidence that comets accreted materials from multiple chondrule reservoirs throughout the solar nebula.

Thermal radiation and soret/dufour effects on amplitude and oscillating frequency of darcian mixed convective heat and mass rate of nanofluid along porous plate

The influence of thermal radiations and Soret/Dufour significantly increases the mass and heat transport in material science, geothermal process, chemical rectors and heat exchangers due to temperature and concentration variation of nanoparticles. Main objective is to enhance the amplitude, oscillation and frequency of heat transfer using the Soret and Dufour characteristics in Darcian radiating flow of thermophoretic nanoparticles along vertical porous surface. The dimensionless analysis is performed to develop the convenient form of governing thermodynamic Darcian nanofluid formulation. To develop the programming algorithm in FORTRAN language, the primitive variable formulation is used for both time-dependent and steady models. The numerical and graphical outcomes of primitive type equations under boundary conditions are explored by using implicit finite difference approach with Gaussian elimination scheme. Various pertinent parameters are used to elaborate the steady fluid velocity, surface temperature and steady concentrated nanoparticle volume fraction. Valuable novelty of current research is to use steady results for fluctuating shear stress, fluctuation heating rate and fluctuating mass rate. It is found that the influence of Soret and Dufour parameter enhances the fluid velocity and temperature distribution with maximum variations. It is noticed that the temperature distribution enhances as thermal radiation parameter increases. The oscillation and transient stability of heating rate enhances with prominent variations as thermal radiation and Soret/Dufour parameter increases. It is depicted that amplitude in shear stress and mass rate enhances as Soret and Dufour parameter enhances.

Intermetallic compounds in equilibrium with aluminum in Al–Ca–Cu ternary alloying system

The structure and properties of the new (Al,Cu)4Ca, Al27Ca3Cu7, and Al8CaCu4 intermetallic compounds in equilibrium with aluminum solid solution in the ternary Al–Ca–Cu alloying system were comprehensively analyzed. The (Al,Cu)4Ca intermetallic compound is treated as a line phase based on the Al4Ca phase with Cu substituted by Al. The solubility of copper in the compound reaches 10 at.% (19 wt.%), which leads to marked changes in the crystal lattice structure, physical and mechanical properties of the compound. For instance, the density of the compound increases from 2.22 to 2.79 g/cm3 and the microhardness from HV 180 to HV 250. The Al27Ca3Cu7 phase is treated as a strict stoichiometric ternary compound with a primitive BaHg11 type crystal structure of the Pm3m space group. The lattice parameter is accepted to be 8.514 Å corresponding to a density of 3.45 g/cm3. The Al8CaCu4 phase is also a strict stoichiometric ternary compound with a tetragonal crystal lattice structure of the Mn12Th type. The phase has the highest microhardness (HV 505) and density (4.57 g/cm3). The alloys pertaining to the binary (Al)+(Al,Cu)4Ca phase field and the quasi-binary (Al)+Al27Ca3Cu7 section can be considered promising as the base for new natural aluminum matrix composites.

The Glucose-Succinate Pathway: A Crucial Anaerobic Metabolic Pathway in the Scallop Chlamys farreri Experiencing Heat Stress.

Recently, the increase in marine temperatures has become an important global marine environmental issue. The ability of energy supply in marine animals plays a crucial role in avoiding the stress of elevated temperatures. The investigation into anaerobic metabolism, an essential mechanism for regulating energy provision under heat stress, is limited in mollusks. In this study, key enzymes of four anaerobic metabolic pathways were identified in the genome of scallop Chlamys farreri, respectively including five opine dehydrogenases (CfOpDHs), two aspartate aminotransferases (CfASTs) divided into cytoplasmic (CfAST1) and mitochondrial subtype (CfAST2), and two phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinases (CfPEPCKs) divided into a primitive type (CfPEPCK2) and a cytoplasmic subtype (CfPEPCK1). It was surprising that lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), a key enzyme in the anaerobic metabolism of the glucose-lactate pathway in vertebrates, was absent in the genome of scallops. Phylogenetic analysis verified that CfOpDHs clustered according to the phylogenetic relationships of the organisms rather than substrate specificity. Furthermore, CfOpDHs, CfASTs, and CfPEPCKs displayed distinct expression patterns throughout the developmental process and showed a prominent expression in muscle, foot, kidney, male gonad, and ganglia tissues. Notably, CfASTs displayed the highest level of expression among these genes during the developmental process and in adult tissues. Under heat stress, the expression of CfASTs exhibited a general downregulation trend in the six tissues examined. The expression of CfOpDHs also displayed a downregulation trend in most tissues, except CfOpDH1/3 in striated muscle showing significant up-regulation at some time points. Remarkably, CfPEPCK1 was significantly upregulated in all six tested tissues at almost all time points. Therefore, we speculated that the glucose-succinate pathway, catalyzed by CfPEPCK1, serves as the primary anaerobic metabolic pathway in mollusks experiencing heat stress, with CfOpDH3 catalyzing the glucose-opine pathway in striated muscle as supplementary. Additionally, the high and stable expression level of CfASTs is crucial for the maintenance of the essential functions of aspartate aminotransferase (AST). This study provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the key enzymes involved in anaerobic metabolism pathways, which holds significant importance in understanding the mechanism of energy supply in mollusks.

Cyclooctatetraene‐Embedded Carbon Nanorings

AbstractWith the prosperity of the development of carbon nanorings, certain topologically or functionally unique units‐embedded carbon nanorings have sprung up in the past decade. Herein, we report the facile and efficient synthesis of three cyclooctatetraene‐embedded carbon nanorings (COTCNRs) that contain three (COTCNR1 and COTCNR2) and four (COTCNR3) COT units in a one‐pot Yamamoto coupling. These nanorings feature hoop‐shaped segments of Gyroid (G‐), Diamond (D‐), and Primitive (P‐) type carbon schwarzites. The conformations of the trimeric nanorings COTCNR1 and COTCNR2 are shape‐persistent, whereas the tetrameric COTCNR3 possesses a flexible carbon skeleton which undergoes conformational changes upon forming host–guest complexes with fullerenes (C60 and C70), whose co‐crystals may potentially serve as fullerene‐based semiconducting supramolecular wires with electrical conductivities on the order of 10−7 S cm−1 (for C60⊂COTCNR3) and 10−8 S cm−1 (for C70⊂COTCNR3) under ambient conditions. This research not only describes highly efficient one‐step syntheses of three cyclooctatetraene‐embedded carbon nanorings which feature hoop‐shaped segments of distinctive topological carbon schwarzites, but also demonstrates the potential application in electronics of the one‐dimensional fullerene arrays secured by COTCNR3.

Integrating Chemical Information into Reinforcement Learning for Enhanced Molecular Geometry Optimization.

Geometry optimization is a crucial step in computational chemistry, and the efficiency of optimization algorithms plays a pivotal role in reducing computational costs. In this study, we introduce a novel reinforcement-learning-based optimizer that surpasses traditional methods in terms of efficiency. What sets our model apart is its ability to incorporate chemical information into the optimization process. By exploring different state representations that integrate gradients, displacements, primitive type labels, and additional chemical information from the SchNet model, our reinforcement learning optimizer achieves exceptional results. It demonstrates an average reduction of about 50% or more in optimization steps compared to the conventional optimization algorithms that we examined when dealing with challenging initial geometries. Moreover, the reinforcement learning optimizer exhibits promising transferability across various levels of theory, emphasizing its versatility and potential for enhancing molecular geometry optimization. This research highlights the significance of leveraging reinforcement learning algorithms to harness chemical knowledge, paving the way for future advancements in computational chemistry.

Spatial distribution and classification of Algerian meteorites: Qualitative and quantitative inventory

This paper deals with statistical classification of the Algerian meteorites, based on the Metbull database, as well as their distribution in space and time. The Algerian-recognized meteorites number 1,230, six of which are observed falls. All types and classes are represented, ranging from ordinary chondrites to rare achondrites.Among the most scientifically significant meteorite types, are the carbonaceous chondrites, in particular: (a) Acfer 059 that yields an age of 4,564.7 ± 0.6 Ma; (b) Acfer 086 which is a ‘CV3’ type that contains the molecule hemolithin which is similar to terrestrial proteins; (c) Acfer 094 (found in 1990), which is a C2-ungrouped type that is considered as the oldest known meteorite containing pre-solar grains; and (d) NWA 2,364 which is also a ‘CV3’ type meteorite that yields an age of 4,568.2 Ma, and contains predominantly of CAIs (calcium-aluminum inclusions).Other undifferentiated achondrites of a primitive type and the asteroidal HED meteorites have also been identified. Among the iron meteorites, two specimens (Zeghamra and Tamentit) display a mass of several hundreds of kilograms. Erg Chech “EC002” is considered as the oldest of the solar system with an age of 5,668 Ma. The SNC-type Martian meteorites comprise ten recognized specimens, whilst the lunar meteorites, such as the Issaouane-n-Irrarrene 001, are the latest to be found. Using all recognized Algerian meteorites, a distribution map is established based on the Metbull database. Chronological evolution of both the number of finds in the Acfer stranding field, and the number of finds in Algeria since 1864, is discussed. In addition to meteorites, Algeria hosts four hypervelocity impact structures, namely: Amguid, Talemzane-Maadna, Ouarkziz, and Tin Bider.

Modulation of dog–owner relationship and dog social and cognitive behavior by owner temperament and dog breed group

As companion dogs spend most of their lives with humans, the human–dog relationship and owner temperament may affect the dog behavior. In this study (n = 440), we investigated the relationship between the dog owner temperament (ATQ-R), owner-perceived dog–owner relationship (MDORS) and the dog behavior in three behavioral tests: the object-choice test, the unsolvable task, and the cylinder test. Dog owner temperament influenced the dog–owner relationship. Owners with high negative affectivity showed higher emotional closeness and perceived costs of their dog, whereas owners with high effortful control showed lower emotional closeness and perceived costs. Higher dog activity during the behavioral tests was also connected with owner-perceived lower emotional closeness. Furthermore, dog breed group modulated the connection between the owner temperament and dog behavior. Owner’s high negative affectivity correlated with herding dogs’ lower scores in the object choice test, while the behavior of primitive type dogs was unaffected by the owner temperament. Our results confirm that human characteristics are associated with the owner-reported dog–owner relationship, and owner temperament may have a modulatory effect on the dog social and cognitive behavior depending on the dog breed group, which should be investigated further.

Deep formation of Earth’s earliest continental crust consistent with subduction

About four billion years ago, Earth’s outer layer is thought to have been composed mostly of a 25- to 50-km-thick basaltic crust that differentiated to form the oldest stable continental crust. However, the tectonic processes responsible for the formation of this continental material remain controversial. Suggested explanations include convergent plate boundary processes akin to subduction operating today and a variety of relatively shallow (<50 km) non-plate-tectonic intracrustal mechanisms. Here we perform high-pressure–temperature melting experiments on an oceanic plateau analogue for the early basaltic crust and show that magmas with the composition of the early continental crust cannot form at pressures <1.4 GPa (~50 km depth). This suggests that Eoarchaean continental magmas are formed in deep (>50 km) subduction-like environments. Our results support previous Eoarchaean field evidence and analyses of igneous rocks that date to 4.0–3.6 billion years ago, which are consistent with subduction-like processes and suggest a primitive type of plate tectonics operated as long as 4 billion years ago on early Earth.

Biochemical Symmetrization/ Desymmetrization of Organic Compounds: Dendrimeric Relationship with Molecular Formulas

A criterion for systematization of organic compounds is described. Organic compounds (estimated to 16-20 millions) are of three types: (A) symmetric (especially meso and C2 symmetric), (B) possible symmetry generators, i.e. compounds possessing a real or imaginary, but plausible, symmetric correspondent: irrechi (from irregular distribution of chiral carbons) and constitutional), and (C) archaic (or primitive) that are neither symmetric nor possible symmetry generators. Symmetric compounds are a minority in organic chemistry. The three groups are (bio) chemically interchangeable. In preceding papers we have demonstrated that almost all natural micromolecular combinations are either symmetric or possible symmetry generators; archaic (primitive) type is also represented in natural chemistry. On the other hand, it should be stressed that symmetric compounds, both meso and C2 symmetrical (C2 symm.) have been found almost exclusively in plants and microorganisms, and they are usually produced from constitutional (constit.) precursors. A series of symmetrization/desymmetrization reactions are presented, and the proof is evidenced that they can establish a new and coherent concept in biochemistry and organic chemistry. Symmetrization reactions can be followed according to chemical type involved: oxidation, cyclization, esterification, glycosylation, methylation, etc. This approach is valid to all major classes of compounds. A dendrimeric relationship is presented within molecular formulae.

The Campinas-Jaguariúna Sill, NE Paraná Magmatic Province, Brazil: Insights on the mechanisms of emplacement and differentiation from geochemical and magnetic data

The Paraná Magmatic Province (PMP), one of the largest magmatic provinces on Earth, is composed of lava flows, dike swarms and sills that occupy thousands of kilometers across central-eastern South America. The Campinas-Jaguariúna Sill (CJS) is a large (>50 m thick and ±150 km2) diabase intrusion showing frequent medium- to coarse-grained gabbroic segregations and was emplaced at the interface between the Precambrian basement and sedimentary rocks in the northeastern Paraná Basin. This paper applies airborne magnetic and geochemical modeling to help understand the emplacement mechanisms and petrological evolution of the CJS. Magnetic field filtering techniques demonstrate that the CJS continues for tens of kilometers in the subsurface; analogous features are shown to be associated with other neighbor diabase occurrences, creating lobe-shaped structures that seem to freeze their original geometry and are not fully exposed by the current erosion levels. Petrological modeling indicates that the parental magma of the CJS was emplaced at ∼1 kbar, 1000 ppm H2O, and oxygen fugacity near FMQ-1. The gabbroic segregations, exposed as cm- to dm-sized sheets and eye-shaped lenses, are more evolved than the host diabase and can be shown by geochemical modeling to correspond to residual melts formed by crystal fractionation in a closed system. The parent magma of the CJS is akin to the more primitive Paranapanema magma type of the PMP, and we tested the possibility that sills intruding upper sedimentary layers may be part of a single episode of intrusions. For this purpose, we used geochemical data from the well-studied Limeira Sill, which is akin to the more evolved Pitanga magma type. Our modeling shows that, under crystal fractionation in the representative system condition, the CJS starting compositions cannot generate the Limeira rocks.

Compressive behavior and property prediction of gradient cellular structures fabricated by selective laser melting

Triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures are ideal for applications such as lightweight and bone implantation. Compared with uniform structures, functionally graded cellular materials (FGCMs) are more attractive due to their diverse performance and excellent adaptability to actual requirements. A series of uniform cellular structures including Primitive and Gyroid type are designed and manufactured by selective laser melting (SLM) to understand the morphology, geometry characteristics as well as mechanical properties. Then, the transversely and longitudinally graded cellular structures are proposed to understand its relation to uniform cellular structures. The results show that the actual porosity of cellular structures is slightly lower than the designed, with a small deviation of 2.2%− 3.7%. The elastic modulus and yield strength of uniform cellular structures decrease gradually with increase of porosity. The mechanical properties of uniform cellular structures relative to solid counterparts can be predicted from Gibson-Ashby equations. The porosity gradient TPMS structures are found the mechanical accumulation of uniform cellular substructures. The mechanical properties of gradient TPMS structures can be modelled by composite theories.

Experimental investigation on seaweed (sargassum wightii) derived using methanolic extracts

Seaweeds are a primitive type of plant and macro algae, which usually grow in the regions of backwaters, estuaries, and seas, especially in shallow water. They are typically formed, attached, and visualized to the coral reef, rocks, and other substrata wherever available.The seaweeds are collected from the Kanyakumari region and processed for methanol production. The methanol is extracted from the processed seaweed using the Saccharification method. The physicochemical properties of methanol are determined as per ASTM standards. The yield (%) of methanol production depends on the concentration of the substrate and the time duration (24, 48, and 72 h). It is observed that for a substrate concentration of 15%,amaximum yield of methanolis observed. In contrast, when the substrate concentrations lie below 10%, there is a decrease in the methanol yield for all the time durations investigated.Therefore, the maximum yield (51.2%) of methanol is obtained for a substrate concentration of 15% with a time period of about 48 h.The present work concentrated on producing methanol from a high concentration and choice of seaweed (Sargassum wightii).

Efficient Extensional Binary Tries

Lookup tables (finite maps) are a ubiquitous data structure. In pure functional languages they are best represented using trees instead of hash tables. In pure functional languages within constructive logic, without a primitive integer type, they are well represented using binary tries instead of search trees. In this work, we introduce canonical binary tries, an improved binary-trie data structure that enjoys a natural extensionality property, quite useful in proofs, and supports sparseness more efficiently. We provide full proofs of correctness in Coq. We provide microbenchmark measurements of canonical binary tries versus several other data structures for finite maps, in a variety of application contexts; as well as measurement of canonical versus original tries in two big, real systems. The application context of data structures contained in theorem statements imposes unusual requirements for which canonical tries are particularly well suited.

Fibrous or Prismatic? A Comparison of the Lamello-Fibrillar Nacre in Early Cambrian and Modern Lophotrochozoans.

The Precambrian-Cambrian interval saw the first appearance of disparate modern metazoan phyla equipped with a wide array of mineralized exo- and endo-skeletons. However, the current knowledge of this remarkable metazoan skeletonization bio-event and its environmental interactions is limited because uncertainties have persisted in determining the mineralogy, microstructure, and hierarchical complexity of these earliest animal skeletons. This study characterizes in detail a previously poorly understood fibrous microstructure-the lamello-fibrillar (LF) nacre-in early Cambrian mollusk and hyolith shells and compares it with shell microstructures in modern counterparts (coleoid cuttlebones and serpulid tubes). This comparative study highlights key differences in the LF nacre amongst different lophotrochozoan groups in terms of mineralogical compositions and architectural organization of crystals. The results demonstrate that the LF nacre is a microstructural motif confined to the Mollusca. This study demonstrates that similar fibrous microstructure in Cambrian mollusks and hyoliths actually represent a primitive type of prismatic microstructure constituted of calcitic prisms. Revision of these fibrous microstructures in Cambrian fossils demonstrates that calcitic shells are prevalent in the so-called aragonite sea of the earliest Cambrian. This has important implications for understanding the relationship between seawater chemistry and skeletal mineralogy at the time when skeletons were first acquired by early lophotrochozoan biomineralizers.

Making sugar-free bread with wheat flour and halotolerant &lt;i&gt;Hyphopichia burtonii&lt;/i&gt;-enriched culture

We re-evaluated the feasibility of fermentation seeds made from Inaniwa udon, a traditional wheat noodle. Inaniwa udon dough was cultivated in a 5 % saline medium at 29 ˚C for three days (hereinafter ‘Hyphopichia-enriched starter’). Without adding sugar or yeast, this Hyphopichia-enriched starter could be used to make a primitive type of bread whose ingredients were limited to flour, salt and a starter. A typical strain of this culture, Hyphopichia burtonii M2, had much higher α-amylase activity than the type culture of H. burtonii, NBRC 10837T. When used for bread making, both strong and weak flour yielded bread with a specific volume of 2.0–2.2 cm3/g. The fresh bread crumb tended to be dark in color, with an L* of 63–70.

Investigations on the compressive behaviour of novel cell size graded primitive lattice structure produced by Metal Additive Manufacturing

In this research work, a novel cell size graded sheet primitive type Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) lattice structure is designed and built using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) of SS316L powder. Manufacturability and compressive behaviour are analyzed and compared with the uniform Primitive structures. The pore opening diameter was measured using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The graded structure revealed a higher quasi-elastic modulus than the uniform structures, while the Energy Absorption characteristics are almost the same in all of them. The graded structure exhibited a distinct order of crushing among the layers. Overall, such structures are found to be worthy candidates for load-bearing parts with considerable energy absorption in biomedical applications.
