A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and
quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …

The interior of a living cell is a crowded, heterogenuous, fluctuating environment. Hence, a
major challenge in modeling intracellular transport is to analyze stochastic processes within …

Passive macromolecular diffusion through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) is thought to
decrease dramatically beyond a 30–60-kD size threshold. Using thousands of independent …

One of the major challenges in modern biology is to understand how the molecular
components of a living cell operate in a highly noisy environment. What are the specific …

Internal membrane bound structures sequester all genetic material in eukaryotic cells. The
most prominent of these structures is the nucleus, which is bounded by a double membrane …

Unlike equilibrium statistical mechanics, with its well-established foundations, a similar
widely accepted framework for non-equilibrium statistical mechanics (NESM) remains …

Although the nuclear pore complex (NPC) is best known for its primary function as the key
regulator of molecular traffic between the cytoplasm and the nucleus, a growing body of …

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are proteinaceous assemblies of approximately 50 MDa
that selectively transport cargoes across the nuclear envelope. To determine the molecular …

A molecular motor is made of either a single macromolecule or a macromolecular complex.
Just like their macroscopic counterparts, molecular motors “transduce” input energy into …

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) act as effective and robust gateways to the nucleus,
allowing only the passage of selected macromolecules across the nuclear envelope. NPCs …
