Non-linear bi-algebraic curves and surfaces in moduli spaces of Abelian differentials by Deroin, Bertrand, Matheus, Carlos

“…Partly inspired by the case of homogenous spaces carrying bi-algebraic structures (such as torii, Abelian varieties and Shimura varieties), Klingler and Lerer recently showed that any bi-algebraic curve in a stratum of the moduli space of Abelian differentials is linear provided that the so-called condition $(\star )$ is fulfilled.In this note, we construct a non-linear bi-algebraic curve, resp. surface, of Abelian differentials of genus $7$, resp. $10$.…”

Development and Characterization of a Hydrogel Containing Chloramphenicol-Loaded Binary Ethosomes for Effective Transdermal Permeation and Treatment Acne in Rat Model by Liu RJ, Li M, Zhu Q, Liu HY, Zhang XX, Han XY, Yu MJ, Zhou JW, Han CY

“…CLSM and ATR-FTIR confirm that loading CAM into a binary ethosomes enables drugs to pass more easily through the stratum corneum. In vivo testing and histopathological analysis demonstrated that the CAM-BE hydrogel significantly inhibited swelling in the rat auricle, compared to both the free CAM hydrogel and adapalene hydrogel.Conclusion: With their strong anti-inflammatory properties and improved skin penetration, binary ethosomes could be a viable new CAM delivery method. …”
