Title: Gelfand DualityAbstract: If X and Y are locally compact Hausdorff spaces, and C_0(X) and C_0(Y) are the rings of complex-valued functions over the respective spaces that vanish at infinity, then X and Y are homeomorphic if and only if C_0(X) and C_0(Y) are isomorphic as rings. A question arises: is a commutative ring satisfying similar axioms to a ring of complex-valued functions vanishing at infinity (even with no reference to an underlying space in its definition) canonically isomorphic...

Title: Can Computational Modeling Inform Intervention Strategies to Mitigate the Impact of Developmental Abnormalities? Abstract: Branched, tree-like structures, such as the lung airways and mammary ducts, are vital for fluid transport in mammals. They facilitate the secretion and distribution of essential substances, as well as the removal of waste, thereby supporting diverse physiological functions. The formation of these tree-like structures typically begins during embryonic development...
