TL;DR: The overwhelming evidence in support of both excitatory GABA during development, and the implications this has in developmental neurobiology are summarized.
Abstract: During brain development, there is a progressive reduction of intracellular chloride associated with a shift in GABA polarity: GABA depolarizes and occasionally excites immature neurons, subsequently hyperpolarizing them at later stages of development. This sequence, which has been observed in a wide range of animal species, brain structures and preparations, is thought to play an important role in activity-dependent formation and modulation of functional circuits. This sequence has also been considerably reinforced recently with new data pointing to an evolutionary preserved rule. In a recent ‘Hypothesis and Theory Article’, the excitatory action of GABA in early brain development is suggested to be “an experimental artefact” (Bregestovski and Bernard, 2012). The authors suggest that the excitatory action of GABA is due to an inadequate/insufficient energy supply in glucose-perfused slices and/or to the damage produced by the slicing procedure. However, these observations have been repeatedly contradicted by many groups and are inconsistent with a large body of evidence including the fact that the developmental shift is neither restricted to slices nor to rodents. We summarize the overwhelming evidence in support of both excitatory GABA during development, and the implications this has in developmental neurobiology.

TL;DR: The quantum annealing scheme, even with a drastically simple form of kinetic energy, appears definitely superior to the classical one, when tested on a 1002-city instance of the standard TSPLIB.
Abstract: We propose a path-integral Monte Carlo quantum annealing scheme for the symmetric traveling-salesman problem, based on a highly constrained Ising-like representation, and we compare its performance against standard thermal simulated annealing. The Monte Carlo moves implemented are standard, and consist in restructuring a tour by exchanging two links (two-opt moves). The quantum annealing scheme, even with a drastically simple form of kinetic energy, appears definitely superior to the classical one, when tested on a 1002-city instance of the standard TSPLIB.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss convergence of pointed metric measure spaces in absence of any compactness condition and show that all of them are equivalent and that for doubling spaces these are also equivalent to the measured-Gromov-Hausdorff convergence.
Abstract: Aim of this paper is to discuss convergence of pointed metric measure spaces in absence of any compactness condition. We propose various definitions, show that all of them are equivalent and that for doubling spaces these are also equivalent to the well known measured-Gromov-Hausdorff convergence. Then we show that the curvature conditions CD(K,∞) and RCD(K,∞) are stable under this notion of convergence and that the heat flow passes to the limit as well, both in the Wasserstein and in the L-framework. We also prove the variational convergence of Cheeger energies in the naturally adapted Γ-Mosco sense and the convergence of the spectra of the Laplacian in the case of spaces either uniformly bounded or satisfying the RCD(K,∞) condition with K > 0. When applied to Riemannian manifolds, our results allow for sequences with diverging dimensions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerically exact approach to nonequilibrium real-time dynamics that is applicable to quantum impurity models coupled to biased noninteracting leads, such as those relevant to quantum transport in nanoscale devices, is proposed.
Abstract: We propose a numerically exact approach to nonequilibrium real-time dynamics that is applicable to quantum impurity models coupled to biased noninteracting leads, such as those relevant to quantum transport in nanoscale devices. The method is based on a diagrammatic Monte Carlo sampling of the real-time perturbation theory along the Keldysh contour. We benchmark the method on a noninteracting resonant-level model and, as a first nontrivial application, we study zero-temperature nonequilibrium transport through a vibrating molecule.
