abstract = {{AbstractThe quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM‐D) is routinely used to investigate structured samples. Here, a simulation technique is described, that predicts the shifts of frequency and half bandwidth, Δfn and ΔΓn, of a quartz resonator operating on different overtone orders, n, induced by structured samples in contact with the resonator surface in liquid. The technique, abbreviated as FreqD‐LBM, solves the Stokes equation in the frequency domain. The solution provides the complex amplitude of the area‐averaged tangential stress at the resonator surface, from which Δfn and ΔΓn are derived. Because the dynamical variables are complex amplitudes, the viscosity can be complex, as well. The technique naturally covers viscoelasticity. Limitations are linked to the grid resolution and to problems at large viscosity. Validation steps include viscoelastic films, rough surfaces, an oscillating cylinder in a viscous medium, and a free‐floating sphere above the resonator. Application examples are soft adsorbed particles, stiff adsorbed particles, and a large, immobile spherical cap above the resonator, which allows to study the high‐frequency properties of the material in the gap. FreqDLBM runs on an office PC and does not require expert knowledge of numerical techniques. It is accessible to an experimentalist.}},

abstract = {{The solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the anode of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has been studied thoroughly due to its crucial importance to the battery’s long-term performance. At the same time, most studies of the SEI apply ex situ characterization methods, which may introduce artifacts or misinterpretations as they do not investigate the SEI in its unaltered state immersed in liquid battery electrolyte. Thus, in this work, we focus on using the non-destructive combination of electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (EQCM-D) and impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in the same electrochemical cell. EQCM-D can not only probe the solidified products of the SEI but also allows for the monitoring of viscoelastic layers and viscosity changes of the electrolyte at the interphase during the SEI formation. EIS complements those results by providing electrochemical properties of the formed interphase. Our results highlight substantial differences in the physical and electrochemical properties between the SEI formed on copper and on amorphous carbon and show how formation parameters and the additive vinylene carbonate (VC) influence their growth. The EQCM-D results show consistently that much thicker SEIs are formed on carbon substrates in comparison to copper substrates.}},

abstract = {{By monitoring the solidification of droplets of plant latices with a fast quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), droplets from Campanula glomerata were found to solidify much faster than droplets from Euphorbia characias and also faster than droplets from all technical latices tested. A similar conclusion was drawn from optical videos, where the plants were injured and the milky fluid was stretched (sometimes forming fibers) after the cut. Rapid solidification cannot be explained with physical drying because physical drying is transport-limited and therefore is inherently slow. It can, however, be explained with coagulation being triggered by a sudden decrease in hydrostatic pressure. A mechanism based on a pressure drop is corroborated by optical videos of both plants being injured under water. While the liquid exuded by E. characias keeps streaming away, the liquid exuded by C. glomerata quickly forms a plug even under water. Presumably, the pressure drop causes an influx of serum into the laticifers. The serum, in turn, triggers a transition from a liquid–liquid phase separated state (an LLPS state) of a resin and hardener to a single-phase state. QCM measurements, optical videos, and cryo-SEM images suggest that LLPS plays a role in the solidification of C. glomerata.}},

abstract = {{Various polycations and polyanions were sequentially adsorbed onto the gold electrode of a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring. The study focused on determining the adsorption kinetics, viscoelastic properties, and electroresponsivity of polyelectrolyte layers. For the first time, it was demonstrated that the structure (compact or expanded) of the layers can be determined by electroresponsivity. Viscoelastic modeling alone did not provide a conclusive answer as to whether the layers were compact or expanded. The study was further enriched by streaming potential and contact angle measurements, where polyelectrolyte multilayers were formed on mica. It was found that successive adsorption of layers led to periodic inversion of the zeta potential. Systematic differences were observed between the different top layers, which were explained by intermixing between layers. The presence or absence of interpenetration, as determined by the measurements of streaming potential and contact angles, correlated well with electroresponsivity.}},

abstract = {{Intersection distribution and non-hitting index are concepts introduced recently by Li and Pott as a new way to view the behaviour of a collection of finite field polynomials. With both an algebraic interpretation via the intersection of a polynomial with a set of lines, and a geometric interpretation via a (q+1)-set possessing an internal nucleus, the concepts have proved their usefulness as a new way to view various long-standing problems, and have applications in areas such as Kakeya sets. In this paper, by exploiting connections with diverse areas including the theory of algebraic curves, cyclotomy and the enumeration of irreducible polynomials, we establish new results and resolve various Open Problems of Li and Pott. We prove geometric results which shed new light on the relationship between intersection distribution and projective equivalence of polynomials, and algebraic results which describe and characterise the degree of Sf - the index of the largest non-zero entry in the intersection distribution of f. We provide new insights into the non-hitting spectrum, and show the limitations of the non-hitting index as a tool for characterisation. Finally, the benefits provided by the connections to other areas are evidenced in two short new proofs of the cubic case. }},

abstract = {{Two fundamental ways to represent a group are as permutations and as matrices. In this paper, we study linear representations of groups that intertwine with a permutation representation. Recently, D'Alconzo and Di Scala investigated how small the matrices in such a linear representation can be. The minimal dimension of such a representation is the \emph{linear dimension of the group action} and this has applications in cryptography and cryptosystems.
We develop the idea of linear dimension from an algebraic point of view by using the theory of permutation modules. We give structural results about representations of minimal dimension and investigate the implications of faithfulness, transitivity and primitivity on the linear dimension. Furthermore, we compute the linear dimension of several classes of finite primitive permutation groups. We also study wreath products, allowing us to determine the linear dimension of imprimitive group actions. Finally, we give the linear dimension of almost simple finite $2$-transitive groups, some of which may be used for further applications in cryptography. Our results also open up many new questions about linear representations of group actions.}},
