Open AccessType 1 interferons and Foxo1 down-regulation play a key role in age-related T-cell exhaustion in mice
Foxo family transcription factors are critically involved in multiple processes, such as metabolism, quiescence, cell survival and cell differentiation. Although continuous, high activity of Foxo transcription...

Open AccessThe approximate functional equation of some Diophantine series
We prove that a family of Diophantine series satisfies an approximate functional equation. It generalizes a result by Rivoal and Roques and proves an extended version of a conjecture posed in their paper. We a...

Randomness Quality and Trade-Offs for CA Random String Generators
We present classical theories for randomness, starting from mathematical ones to others focusing on randomness testing, more useful in computer science. Those characterisations are made by bounding the computa...

Mobile Real-Time Eye-Tracking for Gaze-Aware Security Surveillance Support Systems
The validity of two commercial-off-the-shelf eye trackers, including a fixed system and a mobile device, was compared in the context of a gaze-based assistant tool implemented to aid security surveillance. Pa...

Sur certaines équations fonctionnelles approchées, liées à la transformation de Gauss
In line with classical work by Hardy, Littlewood and Wilton, we study a class of functional equations involving the Gauss transformation from the theory of continued fractions. This allows us to reprove, among...

Multifractal analysis of the Brjuno function
The Brjuno function B is a 1-periodic, nowhere locally bounded function, introduced by Yoccoz because it encapsulates a key information concerning analytic small divisor problems in dimension 1. We show that ...

Open AccessProfiling the lymphoid-resident T cell pool reveals modulation by age and microbiota
Despite being implicated in non-lymphoid tissues, non-recirculating T cells may also exist in secondary lymphoid organs (SLO). However, a detailed characterization of this lymphoid-resident T cell pool has not...

How to Help Teachers Adapt to Learners? Teachers’ Perspective on a Competency and Error-Type Centered Dashboard
The main research goal of this paper is to reveal what information helps teachers adapt to students within a dashboard, how they use it, and how to provide better support. In this research, we observe informat...

On Radius 1 Nontrivial Reversible and Number-Conserving Cellular Automata
Reversibiliity and number-conservation are widely studied physics-like constraints for cellular automata (CA). Although both seem to be ‘natural’ constraints for a CA, it was conjectured that one-dimensional r...

An Intrinsically Universal Family of Causal Graph Dynamics
Causal Graph Dynamics generalize Cellular Automata, extending them to bounded degree, time varying graphs. The dynamics rewrites the graph in discrete time-steps, with respect to two physics-like symmetries: c...
