On the Model Checking Problem for Some Extension of CTL* by Anton Romanovich Gnatenko, Vladimir Anatolyevich Zakharov

“…To provide temporal logics with the ability to define properties of transformations that characterize the behavior ofreactive systems, we introduced new extensions ofthese logics, which have two distinctive features: 1) temporal operators are parameterized, and languages in the input alphabet oftransducers are used as parameters; 2) languages in the output alphabet oftransducers are used as basic predicates. …”

Opioidergic tuning of social attachment: reciprocal relationship between social deprivation and opioid abuse by Julia A. Galiza Soares, Samantha N. Sutley-Koury, Matthew B. Pomrenze, Matthew B. Pomrenze, Jason M. Tucciarone

“…This review addresses the apparent bidirectional causal relationship between social deprivation and opioid addiction susceptibility, investigating the role of opioid transmission in attachment bond formation and prosocial behavior. We propose that early social deprivation disrupts the neurobiological substrates associated with opioid transmission, leading to deficits in social attachment and reinforcing addictive behaviors. …”
