Title: A refined derived Torelli theorem for enriques surfaces, II: the non-generic case
Abstract We prove that two Enriques surfaces defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2 are isomorphic if their Kuznetsov components are equivalent. This improves and completes our previous result joint with Nuer where the same statement is proved for generic Enriques surfaces.  more » « less

    Chaplygin’s hodograph method of classical fluid mechanics is applied to explicitly solve the Plateau problem of finding minimal surfaces. The minimal surfaces are formed between two mirror-symmetric polygonal frames having a common axis of symmetry. Two classes of minimal surfaces are found: the class of regular surfaces continuously connecting the supporting frames forming a tube with complex shape; and the class of singular surfaces which have a partitioning film closing the tube in between. As an illustration of the general solution, minimal surfaces supported by triangular frames are fully described. The theory is experimentally validated using soap films. The general solution is compared with the known particular solutions obtained by the Weierstrass inverse method.

    Abstract Slippery surfaces (i.e., surfaces that display high liquid droplet mobility) are receiving significant attention due to their biofluidic applications. Non‐textured, all‐solid, slippery hydrophilic (SLIC) surfaces are an emerging class of rare and counter‐intuitive surfaces. In this work, the interactions of blood and bacteria with SLIC surfaces are investigated. The SLIC surfaces demonstrate significantly lower platelet and leukocyte adhesion (≈97.2% decrease in surface coverage), and correspondingly low platelet activation, as well as significantly lower bacterial adhesion (≈99.7% decrease in surface coverage of liveEscherichia Coliand ≈99.6% decrease in surface coverage of liveStaphylococcus Aureus) and proliferation compared to untreated silicon substrates, indicating their potential for practical biomedical applications. The study envisions that the SLIC surfaces will pave the path to improved biomedical devices with favorable blood and bacteria interactions.

    Abstract Achieving mobile liquid droplets on solid surfaces is crucial for various practical applications, such as self‐cleaning and anti‐fouling coatings. The last two decades have witnessed remarkable progress in designing functional surfaces, including super‐repellent surfaces and lubricant‐infused surfaces, which allow droplets to roll/slide on the surfaces. However, it remains a challenge to enable droplet motion on hydrophilic solid surfaces. In this work, we demonstrate mobile droplets containing ionic surfactants on smooth hydrophilic surfaces that are charged similarly to surfactant molecules. The ionic surfactant‐laden droplets display ultra‐low contact angle and ultra‐low sliding angle simultaneously on the hydrophilic surfaces. The sliding of the droplet is enabled by the adsorbed surfactant ahead of three‐phase contact line, which is regulated by the electrostatic interaction between ionic surfactant and charged solid surface. The droplet can maintain its motion even when the hydrophilic surface has defects. Furthermore, we demonstrate controlled manipulation of ionic surfactant‐laden droplets on hydrophilic surfaces with different patterns. We envision that our simple technique for achieving mobile droplets on hydrophilic surfaces can pave the way to novel slippery surfaces for different applications.

    Hypothesis Understanding the microscopic driving force of water wetting is challenging and important for design of materials. The relations between structure, dynamics and hydrogen bonds of interfacial water can be investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. Experiments and simulations Contact angles at the alumina (0001) and ( ) surfaces are studied using both classical molecular dynamics simulations and experiments. To test the superhydrophilicity, the free energy cost of removing waters near the interfaces are calculated using the density fluctuations method. The strength of hydrogen bonds is determined by their lifetime and geometry. Findings Both surfaces are superhydrophilic and the (0001) surface is more hydrophilic. Interactions between surfaces and interfacial waters promote a templating effect whereby the latter are aligned in a pattern that follows the underlying lattice of the surfaces. Translational and rotational dynamics of interfacial water molecules are slower than in bulk water. Hydrogen bonds between water and both surfaces are asymmetric, water-to-aluminol ones are stronger than aluminol-to-water ones. Molecular dynamics simulations eliminate the impacts of surface contamination when measuring contact angles and the results reveal the microscopic origin of the macroscopic superhydrophilicity of alumina surfaces: strong water-to-aluminol hydrogen bonds.

    We investigate the problem of when big mapping class groups are generated by involutions. Restricting our attention to the class of self-similar surfaces, which are surfaces with self-similar ends spaces, as defined by Mann and Rafi, and with 0 or infinite genus, we show that when the set of maximal ends is infinite, then the mapping class groups of these surfaces are generated by involutions, normally generated by a single involution, and uniformly perfect. In fact, we derive this statement as a corollary of the corresponding statement for the homeomorphism groups of these surfaces. On the other hand, among self-similar surfaces with one maximal end, we produce infinitely many examples in which their big mapping class groups are neither perfect nor generated by torsion elements. These groups also do not have the automatic continuity property.
