1. Default mode timescales are not the longest and do not differ in mild-to-moderate depression: a registered resting-state test

   Spatiotemporal accounts of depression predict that the default mode network (DMN) integrates over the longest intrinsic timescales, longer than control and salience networks, and that depression lengthens DMN timescales, prolongs DMN-dominant states, narrows transitions between network states and tracks brooding rumination. We tested these predictions in a registered analysis of public eyes-closed resting-state fMRI from people with depression and controls. Salience timescales were the shortest, but the DMN's were shorter than the control network's by -0.0416 s (CI -0.07 to -0.0125), opposite to the predicted order. Depression did not change DMN timescales (AUC 0.4015, CI 0.2708 to 0.5378), DMN dwell time or transition entropy, and brooding tracked neither. These data do not support the tested predictions.

   • Published.Published: In eyes-closed resting-state fMRI from 72 adults (OpenNeuro ds002748; 100 Schaefer parcels, 0.01-0.1 Hz band-pass, TR 2.5 s), the intrinsic timescale ACW-50 of the salience network is shorter than that of the default mode network (Hodges-Lehmann difference 0.0391 s, 95% CI 0.0057 to 0.0731) and of the control network (0.0751 s, 0.0397 to 0.1085), but the default mode network's is not the longest: it is shorter than the control network's by 0.0416 s (95% CI 0.0125 to 0.07).
   • Published.Published: In the same data, 51 adults with mild-to-moderate depression and 21 controls did not differ in default mode network ACW-50 (probability a depressed participant's value exceeds a control's 0.4015, 95% CI 0.2708 to 0.5378), in mean dwell time of default-mode-dominant states (0.5131, 0.3679 to 0.6536) or in the entropy of transitions among default-mode-, salience- and control-dominant states (0.549, 0.3987 to 0.6975); the design had 80% power only for differences near an AUC of 0.70.
   • Published.Published: Within the 45 depressed participants with Ruminative Responses Scale scores, brooding was not correlated with default mode network ACW-50 (Spearman rho 0.1065, 95% CI -0.1848 to 0.3812) or with default-mode-dominant dwell time (rho -0.2063, -0.4732 to 0.0887).

2. Capacity and idle power limit assigned carbon reductions from daily batch scheduling

   How much does scheduling a daily batch by historical grid intensity help when computing capacity and idle power are explicit? We evaluate seasonal clock-time profiles trained on 2023 public Great Britain data, with equal work and equal energy in every comparison. At 50% utilization, assigned carbon falls by 11.63% in 2024 and 12.81% in 2025 relative to uniform processing. Setting idle power to 50% of maximum power reduces these advantages to 3.88% and 4.27%. Some dates have higher assigned carbon after shifting. These results describe a fixed historical workload benchmark and an accounting signal; they do not measure avoided emissions.

3. Divergent Efficacy of Adaptive Versus Continuous Therapy Across Pre-Existing and De Novo Resistance Regimes

   Does adaptive therapy consistently outperform continuous maximum tolerated dose treatment? Simulating stochastic birth-death-mutation processes and competitive dynamics reveals a sharp bifurcation governed by baseline clonality. Under de novo mutation, continuous treatment achieves complete clonal eradication in 96.6% of simulated tumors, whereas adaptive therapy achieves 0% eradications due to mutational influx during drug holidays. Conversely, with 2% pre-existing resistance, adaptive therapy prolongs mean time to progression from 68.6 days to 74.8 days while reducing cumulative drug exposure by 18.1%. In competitive dynamics, the adaptive-to-continuous progression-time ratio contracts from 1.11 under a 20% fitness cost to 1.09 under neutral resistance. Thus, adaptive therapy requires established pre-existing resistance to provide clinical benefit.

   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Under de novo mutation without pre-existing resistance, continuous maximum tolerated dose therapy achieves complete stochastic clonal eradication in 96.6% of simulated tumors, whereas adaptive therapy achieves 0.0% eradications and incurs progression across all trials due to mutational influx during treatment holidays.

   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Across deterministic competitive dynamics, the time-to-progression ratio of adaptive relative to continuous therapy contracts from 1.11 at a resistant fitness cost of 0.20 to 1.09 at zero fitness cost, confirming that carrying-capacity crowding alone provides only modest progression delay in the absence of a competitive proliferation penalty.

4. Exact discrete Wright-Fisher fixation probabilities and conditional absorption times characterize selection boundaries across finite populations

   Does continuous diffusion accurately capture discrete Wright-Fisher allele fixation across finite populations? Solving exact absorbing Markov chains reveals that Kimura's diffusion approximation systematically overestimates single-mutant fixation probability, with relative error scaling from 0.29% at selection coefficient 0.01 in population size 100 to 3.31% at selection coefficient 0.1 in population size 20. Using Doob $h$-transforms, conditional absorption times demonstrate trajectory time symmetry: fixation times for deleterious and beneficial alleles differ by at most 3.02% across all evaluated populations and selection coefficients up to 0.05. In the neutral limit, discrete fixation probabilities match the theoretical inverse population size with residual 0, and conditional absorption time for population size 100 reaches 196.74 generations, within 1.63% of the asymptotic bound of 200 generations.
