Mutations of the HRPT2 gene, which are responsible for hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome, have been implicated in the development of a high proportion of parathyroid carcinomas. The aim of this study was to investigate differences in expression of the most important genes connected with parathyroid carcinoma between HPT-JT syndrome due to an HRPT2 splicing mutation, normal parathy...

Some of the essential tasks of a multiagent system (MAS) include distributed probabilistic reasoning, constraint reasoning, and decision making. Junction tree (JT) based agent organizations have been adopted by some MAS frameworks for their advantages of efficient communication and sound inference. In addition, JT organizations have the potential capacity to support a high degree of agent priva...

The multideterminental-DFT approach was performed in order to calculate the Jahn-Teller (JT) parameters for the JT active molecules. Within the harmonic approximation the JT distortion can be analysed as a linear combination of all totally symmetric normal modes in any of the low symmetry minimum energy conformation, which allows to calculate the Intrinsic Distortion Path (IDP), exactly from th...

Materials, consisting of Jahn-Teller (JT) ions, such as cuprates and manganites, display many outstanding properties, including high temperature superconductivity and colossal magnetoresistance. There, the role of JT effect, although widely recognized, is still elusive. Here we show that these materials have vibronic excitations, related to local deformations rotating around JT ions in the dyna...

QT interval decreases with increasing heart rate (HR), hence to define normal values of QT interval for different heart rates requires the application of a QT interval rate correction formula. However, it’s unknown the influence of HR on the ratios between several ventricular repolarization intervals, that can be useful as risk predictors of malignant ventricular arrhythmias. This study analyze...

The fullerene anion, C60 , within the Ih point group, is a spherical molecule subject to the T h Jahn–Teller (JT) distortion. The descent in symmetry goes to the three epikernel subgroups, namely D5d, D3d, and D2h. The last one completely removes the electronic degeneracy, whereas D5d and D3d structures are subject to further JT distortion, leading to C2h minimum energy structure. The multidete...

A new approach is presented for modeling perovskite frameworks with disordered Jahn-Teller (JT) distortions and has been applied to study the elastic response of the LaMnO3 structure to defects in the JT ordering. Surprisingly, antiphase domain boundary defects in the pattern of ordered JT octahedra, along the [110] and [110] bonding directions, are found to produce 1D stripe patterns rotated 4...

We propose a family of attributed graph kernels based on mutual information measures, i.e., the Jensen-Tsallis (JT) q-differences (for q ∈ [1, 2]) between probability distributions over the graphs. To this end, we first assign a probability to each vertex of the graph through a continuous-time quantum walk (CTQW). We then adopt the tree-index approach [1] to strengthen the original vertex label...
