Prospects for a lossless negative dielectric constant material for optical devices are studied. Simulations show that with sufficient gain, a mixture of two semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) can produce an effective dielectric constant that is lossless and negative. This permits, in concept, arbitrarily small scaling of the optical mode volume, a major goal in the field of nanophotonics. The proposed implementation of a lossless negative dielectric constant material based on colloidal QDs opens a tractable path.

The rapid development of Digital Twin (DT) technology has underlined challenges in resource-constrained mobile devices, especially in the application of extended realities (XR), which includes Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). These challenges lead to computational inefficiencies that negatively impact user experience when dealing with sizeable 3D model assets. This article applies multiple lossless compression algorithms to improve the efficiency of digital twin asset delivery in Unity's AssetBundle and Addressable asset management frameworks.

Article Synopsis
- Hyperbolic metamaterials (HMM) exhibit both metal and dielectric properties simultaneously, enabling advanced applications like super-resolution imaging but suffer from intrinsic losses that limit their effectiveness.
- The development of active HMM, which incorporates gain materials to offset losses, has sparked research into topological aspects of HMM, fostering innovations like lossless HMM using all-dielectric materials.
- Recent studies focus on topological transitions and edge states in HMM, alongside potential advancements through twistronics, highlighting a promising area for future exploration.

With the advent and improvement of ontological dictionaries (WordNet, Babelnet), the use of synsets-based text representations is gaining popularity in classification tasks. More recently, ontological dictionaries were used for reducing dimensionality in this kind of representation (, Semantic Dimensionality Reduction System (SDRS) (Vélez de Mendizabal et al., 2020)).

Cyclic peptides are an important class of molecules that gained significant attention in the field of drug discovery due to their unique pharmacological characteristics and enhanced proteolytic stability. Yet, gastrointestinal degradation remains a major hurdle in the discovery of orally bioavailable cyclic peptides. Soft spot identification (SSID) of the regions in the cyclic peptide sequence susceptible to amide hydrolysis by proteases is used in the discovery stage to guide medicinal chemistry design.

Several lossy compressors have achieved superior compression rates for mass spectrometry (MS) data at the cost of storage precision. Currently, the impacts of precision losses on MS data processing have not been thoroughly evaluated, which is critical for the future development of lossy compressors. We first evaluated different storage precision (32 bit and 64 bit) in lossless mzML files.
