We present deep F606W, F814W ACS photometry of the recently discovered globular cluster B514, the outermost known globular in the M31 galaxy. The cluster appears quite extended and member stars are unequivocally identified out to ~200 pc from the center. The Color Magnitude Diagram reveals a steep Red Giant Branch (RGB), and a Horizontal Branch (HB) extending blue ward of the instability strip, indicating that B514 is a classical old metal-poor globular cluster. The RGB locus and the position of the RGB Bump are both consistent with a metallicity [Fe/H] ~ -1.8, in excellent agreement with spectroscopic estimates. A preliminary estimate of the integrated absolute V magnitude (M_V< -9.1) suggests that B514 is among the brightest globulars of M31.

We explore the following question: Is a decision-making program fair, for some useful definition of fairness? First, we describe how several algorithmic fairness questions can be phrased as program verification problems. Second, we discuss an automated verification technique for proving or disproving fairness of decision-making programs with respect to a probabilistic model of the population.

In this paper, a time variable cosmological constant (CC) from renormalization group equations (RGEs) is explored, where the renormalization scale $\mu^2=R^{-2}_{CC}=Max(\dot{H}+2H^2,-\dot{H})$ is taken. The cosmological parameters, such as dimensionless energy density, deceleration parameter and effective equation of state of CC etc, are derived. Also, the cosmic observational constraints are implemented to test the model's consistence. The results show that it is compatible with cosmic data. So, it would be a viable dark energy model.

Domino Denoise: An Accurate Blind Zero-Shot Denoiser using Domino Tilings

Because noise can interfere with downstream analysis, image denoising has come to occupy an important place in the image processing toolbox. The most accurate state-of-the-art denoisers typically train on a representative dataset. But gathering a training set is not always feasible, so interest has grown in blind zero-shot denoisers that train only on the image they are denoising. The most accurate blind-zero shot methods are blind-spot networks, which mask pixels and attempt to infer them from their surroundings. Other methods exist where all neurons participate in forward inference, however they are not as accurate and are susceptible to overfitting. Here we present a hybrid approach. We first introduce a semi blind-spot network where the network can see only a small percentage of inputs during gradient update. We then resolve overfitting by introducing a validation scheme where we split pixels into two groups and fill in pixel gaps using domino tilings. Our method achieves an average PSNR increase of $0.28$ and a three fold increase in speed over the current gold standard blind zero-shot denoiser Self2Self on synthetic Gaussian noise. We demonstrate the broader applicability of Pixel Domino Tiling by inserting it into a preciously published method.

We study the effect that the dark matter background (DMB) has on the gravitational energy content and, in general, on the star formation efficiency of a molecular cloud (MC). We first analyze the effect that a dark matter halo, described by the Navarro et al. (1996) density profile, has on the energy budget of a spherical, homogeneous, cloud located at different distances from the halo center. We found that MCs located in the innermost regions of a massive galaxy can feel a contraction force greater than their self-gravity due to the incorporation of the potential of the galaxy's dark matter halo. We also calculated analytically the gravitational perturbation that a MC produces over a uniform DMB (uniform at the scales of a MC) and how this perturbation will affect the evolution of the MC itself. The study shows that the star formation in a MC will be considerably enhanced if the cloud is located in a dense and low velocity dark matter environment. We confirm our results by measuring the star formation efficiency in numerical simulations of the formation and evolution of MCs within different DMBs. Our study indicates that there are situations where the dark matter's gravitational contribution to the evolution of the molecular clouds should not be neglected.

GraphTER: Unsupervised Learning of Graph Transformation Equivariant Representations via Auto-Encoding Node-wise Transformations

Recent advances in Graph Convolutional Neural Networks (GCNNs) have shown their efficiency for non-Euclidean data on graphs, which often require a large amount of labeled data with high cost. It it thus critical to learn graph feature representations in an unsupervised manner in practice. To this end, we propose a novel unsupervised learning of Graph Transformation Equivariant Representations (GraphTER), aiming to capture intrinsic patterns of graph structure under both global and local transformations. Specifically, we allow to sample different groups of nodes from a graph and then transform them node-wise isotropically or anisotropically. Then, we self-train a representation encoder to capture the graph structures by reconstructing these node-wise transformations from the feature representations of the original and transformed graphs. In experiments, we apply the learned GraphTER to graphs of 3D point cloud data, and results on point cloud segmentation/classification show that GraphTER significantly outperforms state-of-the-art unsupervised approaches and pushes greatly closer towards the upper bound set by the fully supervised counterparts. The code is available at: https://github.com/gyshgx868/graph-ter.

On Bisimulation in Absence of Restriction

cs.LO
http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
We revisit the standard bisimulation equalities in process models free of the restriction operator. As is well-known, in general the weak bisimilarity is coarser than the strong bisimilarity because it abstracts from internal actions. In absence of restriction, those internal actions become somewhat visible, so one might wonder if the weak bisimilarity is still 'weak'. We show that in both CCScore (i.e., Milner's standard CCS without $\tau$-prefix, summation and relabelling) and its higher-order variant (named HOCCScore), the weak bisimilarity indeed remains weak, i.e., still strictly coarser than the strong bisimilarity, even without the restriction operator. These results can be extended to other first-order or higher-order process models. Essentially, this is due to the direct or indirect existence of the replication operation, which can keep a process retaining its state (i.e., capacity of interaction). By virtue of these observations, we examine a variant of the weak bisimilarity, called quasi-strong bisimilarity. This quasi-strong bisimilarity requires the matching of internal actions to be conducted in the strong manner, as for the strong bisimilarity, and the matching of visible actions to have no trailing internal actions. We exhibit that in CCScore without the restriction operator, the weak bisimilarity exactly collapses onto this quasi-strong bisimilarity, which is moreover shown to coincide with the branching bisimilarity. These results reveal that in absence of the restriction operation, some ingredient of the weak bisimilarity indeed turns into strong, particularly the matching of internal actions.

This paper studies a prototype of inverse obstacle scattering problems whose governing equation is the Helmholtz equation in two dimensions. An explicit method to extract information about the location and shape of unknown obstacles from the far field operator with a fixed wave number is given. The method is based on: an explicit construction of a modification of Mittag-Leffler's function via the Vekua transform and the study of the asymptotic behaviour; an explicit density in the Herglotz wave function that approximates the modification of Mittag-Leffler's function in the bounded domain surrounding unknown obstacles; a system of inequalities derived from Kirsch's factorization formula of the far field operator. Then an indicator function which can be calculated from the far field operator acting on the density is introduced. It is shown that the asymptotic behaviour of the indicator function yields information about the visible part of the exterior of the obstacles.

We propose an algorithm based on Newton's method and subdivision for finding all zeros of a polynomial system in a bounded region of the plane. This algorithm can be used to find the intersections between a line and a surface, which has applications in graphics and computer-aided geometric design. The algorithm can operate on polynomials represented in any basis that satisfies a few conditions. The power basis, the Bernstein basis, and the first-kind Chebyshev basis are among those compatible with the algorithm. The main novelty of our algorithm is an analysis showing that its running is bounded only in terms of the condition number of the polynomial's zeros and a constant depending on the polynomial basis.

In this paper, we study the domain wall motion induced by vertical current flow in asymmetric magnetic tunnel junctions. The domain wall motion in the free layer is mainly dictated by the current-induced field-like torque acting on it. We show that as we increase the MTJ asymmetry, by considering dissimilar ferromagnetic contacts, a linear-in-voltage field-like torque behavior is accompanied by an enhancement in the domain wall displacement efficiency and a higher degree of bidirectional propagation. Our analysis is based on a combination of a quantum transport model and magnetization dynamics as described by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, along with comparison to the intrinsic characteristics of a benchmark in-plane current injection domain wall device.

We report on the observation of spin whirls in a radially expanding polariton condensate formed under non-resonant optical excitation. Real space imaging of polarization- and time-resolved photoluminescence reveal a spiralling polarization pattern in the plane of the microcavity. Simulations of the spatiotemporal dynamics of a spinor condensate reveal the crucial role of polariton interactions with a spinor exciton reservoir. Harnessing spin dependent interactions between the exciton reservoir and polariton condensates allows for the manipulation of spin currents and the realization of dynamic collective spin effects in solid state systems.

The effect of scattering with non-zero impact parameters between consituents in relativistic heavy ion collisions is investigated. In solving the relativistic Boltzmann equation, the characteristic range of the collision kernel is varied from approximately one fm to zero while leaving the mean-free path unchanged. Modifying this range is shown to significantly affect spectra and flow observables. The finite range is shown to provide effective viscosities, shear, bulk viscosity and heat conductivity, with the viscous coefficients being proportional to the square of the interaction range.

We prove that various classical tree forcings -- for instance Sacks forcing, Mathias forcing, Laver forcing, Miller forcing and Silver forcing -- preserve the statement that every real has a sharp and hence analytic determinacy. We then lift this result via methods of inner model theory to obtain level-by-level preservation of projective determinacy (PD). Assuming PD, we further prove that projective generic absoluteness holds and no new equivalence classes classes are added to thin projective transitive relations by these forcings.

In this paper we study the Cauchy problem for one multidimensional compressible nonlocal model of the dissipative quasi-geostrophic equations. First, we obtain the local existence and uniqueness of the smooth non-negative solution or the strong solution in time. Secondly, for the sub-critical and critical case $1\le\alpha\leq 2$, we obtain the global existence and uniqueness results of the nonnegative smooth solution. Then, we prove the global existence of the weak solution for $0\le \alpha\le 2$ and $\nu\ge 0$. Finally, for the sub-critical case, we establish the global $H^1$ and $L^p, p>2,$ decay rate of the smooth solution as $t\to\infty$.

We introduce a notion of coarse embedding at infinity into Hilbert space for metric spaces, which is a weakening of the notion of fibred coarse embedding and a far generalization of Gromov's concept of coarse embedding. It turns out that a residually finite group admits a coarse embedding into Hilbert space if and only if one (or equivalently, every) box space of the group admits a coarse embedding at infinity into Hilbert space. Moreover, we introduce a concept of generalized expander at infinity and show that it is an obstruction to coarse embeddability at infinity.

Archival Vilnius CCD photometric observations are presented for the heavily reddened star cluster Melotte 105, resulting in colour-magnitude diagrams and spectral class estimates. There is considerable lack of agreement between studies for reddening, age, and distance for this cluster explaining why the archival data are being made available by this paper. The derived reddening E(B-V =0.34 +/- 0.04 mag and the distance V-M =12.9 +/- 0.3 mag directly from the Vilnius photometry. The Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) and Vilnius photometric data of the cluster were used to estimate the structural parameters of the cluster, probability of stellar membership in the cluster, the distance modulus and the cluster age. Lack of $Y$ band observations prevented determination of metal abundance. The values of the colour excess and distance module are determined by two different methods (i.e., Q and Zero Age Main Sequence, or ZAMS, methods). A distance modulus of 12.85 +/- 0.07 mag was derived by ZAMS fitting, in good agreement with the above estimate. ZAMS fitting indicates a reddening of 0.403 +/- 0.02 mag, within two sigma of the estimate above. The cluster's metallicity and age are estimated to be 0.24 dex and 240 +/-25 Myr, respectively. The derived mass function is in good agreement with the Salpeter slope. The cluster space velocity components (U, V, W) were determined as (-3.90 +/- 3.34, -13.76 +/- 5.69, +3.45 +/- 0.41) km/s. Perigalactic and apogalactic distances were obtained as R_{p} = 6.85 and R_{a} = 7.44 kpc respectively. The maximum vertical distance from the Galactic plane was calculated as Z_{max} = 84 pc and the eccentricity of the orbit was determined as e = 0.042.

We provide improved upper bounds for the simultaneous sketching complexity of edit distance. Consider two parties, Alice with input $x\in\Sigma^n$ and Bob with input $y\in\Sigma^n$, that share public randomness and are given a promise that the edit distance $\mathsf{ed}(x,y)$ between their two strings is at most some given value $k$. Alice must send a message $sx$ and Bob must send $sy$ to a third party Charlie, who does not know the inputs but shares the same public randomness and also knows $k$. Charlie must output $\mathsf{ed}(x,y)$ precisely as well as a sequence of $\mathsf{ed}(x,y)$ edits required to transform $x$ into $y$. The goal is to minimize the lengths $|sx|, |sy|$ of the messages sent. The protocol of Belazzougui and Zhang (FOCS 2016), building upon the random walk method of Chakraborty, Goldenberg, and Kouck\'y (STOC 2016), achieves a maximum message length of $\tilde O(k^8)$ bits, where $\tilde O(\cdot)$ hides $\mathrm{poly}(\log n)$ factors. In this work we build upon Belazzougui and Zhang's protocol and provide an improved analysis demonstrating that a slight modification of their construction achieves a bound of $\tilde O(k^3)$.

In highly-dense IEEE 802.11 deployments, areas covered by multiple Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) will be common. This opens the door for stations equipped with multiple IEEE 802.11 interfaces to use several WLANs simultaneously, which not only may improve user experience, achieving a better connection with higher throughput and resilience; but it may also improve the network utilization. In this paper we investigate such a scenario. First, using a test-bed, consisting of a single station equipped with two interfaces and two access points, we observe that the file transfer time between the station and a destination server can be significantly reduced, studying with special attention the case in which both links do not have the same available bandwidth. Then, using a Markovian model that captures the scenario's dynamics in presence of multiple stations, we observe that in addition to improve individual station's performance, we can also improve the utilization of a multi-Access Points network despite increasing the contention level.

We propose a new mechanism for the thermal Hall effect in exchange spin-wave systems, which is induced by the magnon-phonon interaction. Using symmetry arguments, we first show that this effect is quite general, and exists whenever the mirror symmetry in the direction of the magnetization is broken. We then demonstrate our result in a collinear ferromagnet on a square lattice, with perpendicular easy-axis anisotropy and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction from mirror symmetry breaking. We show that the thermal Hall conductivity is controlled by the resonant contribution from the anti-crossing points between the magnon and phonon branches, and estimate its size to be comparable to that of the magnon mediated thermal Hall effect.

The VIolation of Pauli exclusion principle -2 experiment, or VIP-2 experiment, at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso searches for x-rays from copper atomic transition that are prohibited by the Pauli Exclusion Principle. Candidate direct violation events come from the transition of a $2p$ electron to the ground state that is already occupied by two electrons. From the first data taking campaign in 2016 of VIP-2 experiment, we determined a best upper limit of 3.4 $\times$ 10$^{-29}$ for the probability that such a violation exists. Significant improvement in the control of the experimental systematics was also achieved, although not explicitly reflected in the improved upper limit. By introducing a simultaneous spectral fit of the signal and background data in the analysis, we succeeded in taking into account systematic errors that could not be evaluated previously in this type of measurements.

Knowledge representation and reasoning capacities are vital to cognitive robotics because they provide higher level cognitive functions for reasoning about actions, environments, goals, perception, etc. Although Answer Set Programming (ASP) is well suited for modelling such functions, there was so far no seamless way to use ASP in a robotic environment. We address this shortcoming and show how a recently developed reactive ASP system can be harnessed to provide appropriate reasoning capacities within a robotic system. To be more precise, we furnish a package integrating the reactive ASP solver oClingo with the popular open-source robotic middleware ROS. The resulting system, ROSoClingo, provides a generic way by which an ASP program can be used to control the behaviour of a robot and to respond to the results of the robot's actions.

Solar Orbiter is the first space mission observing the solar plasma both in situ and remotely, from a close distance, in and out of the ecliptic. The ultimate goal is to understand how the Sun produces and controls the heliosphere, filling the Solar System and driving the planetary environments. With six remote-sensing and four in-situ instrument suites, the coordination and planning of the operations are essential to address the following four top-level science questions: (1) What drives the solar wind and where does the coronal magnetic field originate? (2) How do solar transients drive heliospheric variability? (3) How do solar eruptions produce energetic particle radiation that fills the heliosphere? (4) How does the solar dynamo work and drive connections between the Sun and the heliosphere? Maximising the mission's science return requires considering the characteristics of each orbit, including the relative position of the spacecraft to Earth (affecting downlink rates), trajectory events (such as gravitational assist manoeuvres), and the phase of the solar activity cycle. Furthermore, since each orbit's science telemetry will be downloaded over the course of the following orbit, science operations must be planned at mission level, rather than at the level of individual orbits. It is important to explore the way in which those science questions are translated into an actual plan of observations that fits into the mission, thus ensuring that no opportunities are missed. First, the overarching goals are broken down into specific, answerable questions along with the required observations and the so-called Science Activity Plan (SAP) is developed to achieve this. The SAP groups objectives that require similar observations into Solar Orbiter Observing Plans (SOOPs), resulting in a strategic, top-level view of the optimal opportunities for science observations during the mission lifetime.

Kaluza's mertic with the cylinder condition is considered without the weak gravitational field approximation. It is shown that these hypoteses lead to a non-gauge-invariant electromagnetic theory in a curved space-time. The problem of electro-gravitational unification is considered from this point of view.

The physics of the electronic excitation in semiconductors induced by sub-GeV dark matter (DM) have been extensively discussed in literature, under the framework of the standard plane wave (PW) and pseudopotential calculation scheme. In this paper, we investigate the implication of the all-electron (AE) reconstruction on estimation of the DM-induced electronic transition event rates. As a benchmark study, we first calculate the wavefunctions in silicon and germanium bulk crystals based on both the AE and pseudo (PS) schemes within the projector augmented wave (PAW) framework, and then make comparisons between the calculated excitation event rates obtained from these two approaches. It turns out that in process where large momentum transfer is kinetically allowed, the two calculated event rates can differ by a factor of a few. Such discrepancies are found to stem from the high-momentum components neglected in the PS scheme. It is thus implied that the correction from the AE wavefunction in the core region is necessary for an accurate estimate of the DM-induced transition event rate in semiconductors.

We investigate both theoretically and experimentally the effect of thermal motion of laser cooled atoms on the coherence of Rabi oscillations induced by an inhomogeneous driving field. The experimental results are in excellent agreement with the derived analytical expressions. For freely falling atoms with negligible collisions, as those used in our experiment, we find that the amplitude of the Rabi oscillations decays with time $t$ as $\exp[-(t/\tau)^4]$, where the coherence time $\tau$ drops with increasing temperature and field gradient. We discuss the consequences of these results regarding the fidelity of Rabi rotations of atomic qubits. We also show that the process is equivalent to the loss of coherence of atoms undergoing a Ramsey sequence in the presence of static magnetic field gradients - a common situation in many applications. In addition, our results are relevant for determining the resolution when utilizing atoms as field probes. Using numerical calculations, our model can be easily extended to situations in which the atoms are confined by a potential or to situations where collisions are important.

In this article we survey and examine the realizability of $p$-groups as Galois groups over arbitrary fields. In particular we consider various cohomological criteria that lead to necessary and sufficient conditions for the realizability of such a group as a Galois group, the embedding problem (i.e., realizability over a given subextension), descriptions of such extensions, automatic realizations among $p$-groups, and related topics.

The Clauser-Horne-Shimony and Holt inequality applies when measurements with binary outcomes are performed on physical systems under the assumption of local realism. Testing such inequalities in the quantum realm usually involves either measurements of two--valued quantum observables or pre-defining a context dependent binning procedure. Here we establish the conditions to test the Clauser-Horne-Shimony and Holt inequality using any quantum observable. Our result applies to observables with an arbitrary spectrum and no prior knowledge of their underlying Hilbert space's dimension is required. Finally, we demonstrate the proposed general measurement strategy, that can be seen as positive operator valued measurements performed on the system, using the formalism of modular variables applied to the transverse degrees of freedom of single photons.

Approximating convex bodies succinctly by convex polytopes is a fundamental problem in discrete geometry. A convex body $K$ of diameter $\mathrm{diam}(K)$ is given in Euclidean $d$-dimensional space, where $d$ is a constant. Given an error parameter $\varepsilon > 0$, the objective is to determine a polytope of minimum combinatorial complexity whose Hausdorff distance from $K$ is at most $\varepsilon \cdot \mathrm{diam}(K)$. By combinatorial complexity we mean the total number of faces of all dimensions of the polytope. A well-known result by Dudley implies that $O(1/\varepsilon^{(d-1)/2})$ facets suffice, and a dual result by Bronshteyn and Ivanov similarly bounds the number of vertices, but neither result bounds the total combinatorial complexity. We show that there exists an approximating polytope whose total combinatorial complexity is $\tilde{O}(1/\varepsilon^{(d-1)/2})$, where $\tilde{O}$ conceals a polylogarithmic factor in $1/\varepsilon$. This is a significant improvement upon the best known bound, which is roughly $O(1/\varepsilon^{d-2})$. Our result is based on a novel combination of both old and new ideas. First, we employ Macbeath regions, a classical structure from the theory of convexity. The construction of our approximating polytope employs a new stratified placement of these regions. Second, in order to analyze the combinatorial complexity of the approximating polytope, we present a tight analysis of a width-based variant of B\'{a}r\'{a}ny and Larman's economical cap covering. Finally, we use a deterministic adaptation of the witness-collector technique (developed recently by Devillers et al.) in the context of our stratified construction.

LordNet: Learning to Solve Parametric Partial Differential Equations without Simulated Data

Neural operators, as a powerful approximation to the non-linear operators between infinite-dimensional function spaces, have proved to be promising in accelerating the solution of partial differential equations (PDE). However, it requires a large amount of simulated data which can be costly to collect, resulting in a chicken-egg dilemma and limiting its usage in solving PDEs. To jump out of the dilemma, we propose a general data-free paradigm where the neural network directly learns physics from the mean squared residual (MSR) loss constructed by the discretized PDE. We investigate the physical information in the MSR loss and identify the challenge that the neural network must have the capacity to model the long range entanglements in the spatial domain of the PDE, whose patterns vary in different PDEs. Therefore, we propose the low-rank decomposition network (LordNet) which is tunable and also efficient to model various entanglements. Specifically, LordNet learns a low-rank approximation to the global entanglements with simple fully connected layers, which extracts the dominant pattern with reduced computational cost. The experiments on solving Poisson's equation and Navier-Stokes equation demonstrate that the physical constraints by the MSR loss can lead to better accuracy and generalization ability of the neural network. In addition, LordNet outperforms other modern neural network architectures in both PDEs with the fewest parameters and the fastest inference speed. For Navier-Stokes equation, the learned operator is over 50 times faster than the finite difference solution with the same computational resources.

We report on the direct observation of vortex states confined in equilateral and isosceles triangular dots of weak pinning amorphous superconducting thin films with a scanning superconducting quantum interference device microscope. The observed images illustrate not only pieces of a triangular vortex lattice as commensurate vortex states, but also incommensurate vortex states including metastable ones. We comparatively analyze vortex configurations found in different sample geometries and discuss the symmetry and stability of commensurate and incommensurate vortex configurations against deformations of the sample shape.

Electron tunneling through a double quantum dot molecule, in the Kondo regime, under the effect of a magnetic field and an applied voltage, is studied. This system possesses a complex response to the applied fields characterized by a tristable solution for the conductance. The different nature of the solutions are studied in and out thermodynamical equilibrium. It is shown that the interdot coupling and the fields can be used to control the region of multistability. The mean-field slave-boson formalism is used to obtain the solution of the problem.

We revisit techniques for performing cosmological simulations with both baryons and cold dark matter when each fluid has different initial conditions, as is the case at the end of the radiation era. Most simulations do not reproduce the linear prediction for the difference between the cold dark matter and baryon perturbations. We show that this is due to the common use of offset regular grids when setting up the particle initial conditions. The correct behaviour can be obtained without any loss of simulation resolution by using a Lagrangian glass for the baryon particles. We further show that the difference between cold dark matter and baryons may affect predictions for the Lyman-alpha forest flux power spectrum at the 5% level, potentially impacting current cosmological constraints.

Considering the entanglement between quantum field degrees of freedom inside and outside the horizon as a plausible source of black hole entropy, we address the question: {\it where are the degrees of freedom that give rise to this entropy located?} When the field is in ground state, the black hole area law is obeyed and the degrees of freedom near the horizon contribute most to the entropy. However, for excited state, or a superposition of ground state and excited state, power-law corrections to the area law are obtained, and more significant contributions from the degrees of freedom far from the horizon are shown.

We present high-resolution L'-band imaging of the inner scattered light structure of Class 0 protostar L1527 IRS (IRAS 04368+2557) taken with the Gemini North telescope. The central point-source like feature seen in Spitzer Space Telescope IRAC images is resolved in the Gemini image into a compact bipolar structure with a narrow dark lane in the center. Two scattered light lobes are extended ~1.8" (200 AU) perpendicular to the direction of the outflow and ~2.5" (350 AU) along the outflow axis; the narrow dark lane between the scattered light lobes is ~0.45" (60 AU) thick. The observations are consistent with our initial modeling of a bright inner cavity separated by a dark lane due to extinction along the line of sight of the central protostar by the disk (Tobin et al. 2008). The bright, compact scattered light might be due to complex inner structure generated by the outflow, as suggested in our first paper, or it may more likely be the upper layers of the disk forming from infalling matter.

In genomics, pattern matching against a sequence of nucleotides plays a pivotal role for DNA sequence alignment and comparing genomes. This helps tackling some diseases, such as cancer in humans. The complexity of searching biological sequences in big databases has transformed sequence alignment problem into a challenging field of research in bioinformatics. A large number of research has been carried to solve this problem based on electronic computers. The required extensive amount of computations for handling this huge database in electronic computers leads to vast amounts of energy consumption for electrical processing and cooling. On the other hand, optical processing due to its parallel nature is much faster than electrical counterpart at a fraction of energy consumption level and cost. In this paper, an algorithm based on optical parallel processing is proposed that not only locate similarity between sequences but also determines the exact location of edits. The proposed algorithm is based on partitioning the read sequence into some parts, namely, windows, then, computing their correlation with reference sequence in parallel. Multiple metamaterial based optical correlators are used in parallel to optically implement the architecture. Design limitations and challenges of the architecture are also discussed in details. The simulation results, comparing with the well-known BLAST algorithm, demonstrate superior speed, accuracy, and much lower power consumption.

In this paper, we report on the construction of a new and independent pipeline for analyzing the public data from the first observing run of advanced LIGO for mergers of compact binary systems. The pipeline incorporates different techniques and makes independent implementation choices in all its stages including the search design, the method to construct template banks, the automatic routines to detect bad data segments ("glitches") and to insulate good data from them, the procedure to account for the non-stationary nature of the detector noise, the signal-quality vetoes at the single-detector level and the methods to combine results from multiple detectors. Our pipeline enabled us to identify a new binary black-hole merger GW151216 in the public LIGO data. This paper serves as a bird's eye view of the pipeline's important stages. Full details and derivations underlying the various stages will appear in accompanying papers.

Nonlinear absorption of femtosecond laser pulses provides a unique opportunity to confine energy deposition in any medium to a region that is below the focal diameter of a pulse. Illumination of a polymer film through a transparent high bandgap material such as glass, followed by nonlinear absorption of 800 nm light in polymers, allows us to further restrict absorption to a very thin layer along the propagation direction. We demonstrate this confinement by simulating femtosecond-laser-induced polymer modification by linear, two-photon and three-photon absorption, and discuss the control over energy absorption in polymers that multiphoton processes offer. Energy deposited behind a thin polymer film induces a protruding blister. We present experimental results of blister diameter and height scaling with pulse energy. Using 0.95 NA focussing, we obtained laser-induced blisters with diameters as small as 700 nm suggesting blister-based Laser-Induced Forward Transfer is possible on and below the single-micron scale. Sub-micrometer blister formation using femtosecond lasers also offers a novel method of direct, precise laser-writing of microstructures on films with single laser pulses. This method is a possible alternative to lithography, laser milling, and laser-based additive machining which leaves the surface composition unchanged.

We recall and partially improve four versions of smooth, non-abelian gerbes: Cech cocycles, classifying maps, bundle gerbes, and principal 2-bundles. We prove that all these four versions are equivalent, and so establish new relations between interesting recent developments. Prominent partial results we prove are a bijection between continuous and smooth non-abelian cohomology, and an explicit equivalence between bundle gerbes and principal 2-bundles as 2-stacks.

In recent years, there has been a growing trend of using data-driven methods in industrial settings. These kinds of methods often process video images or parts, therefore the integrity of such images is crucial. Sometimes datasets, e.g. consisting of images, can be sophisticated for various reasons. It becomes critical to understand how the manipulation of video and images can impact the effectiveness of a machine learning method. Our case study aims precisely to analyze the Linemod dataset, considered the state of the art in 6D pose estimation context. That dataset presents images accompanied by ArUco markers; it is evident that such markers will not be available in real-world contexts. We analyze how the presence of the markers affects the pose estimation accuracy, and how this bias may be mitigated through data augmentation and other methods. Our work aims to show how the presence of these markers goes to modify, in the testing phase, the effectiveness of the deep learning method used. In particular, we will demonstrate, through the tool of saliency maps, how the focus of the neural network is captured in part by these ArUco markers. Finally, a new dataset, obtained by applying geometric tools to Linemod, will be proposed in order to demonstrate our hypothesis and uncovering the bias. Our results demonstrate the potential for bias in 6DOF pose estimation networks, and suggest methods for reducing this bias when training with markers.

In this paper, we propose two simple yet efficient computational algorithms to obtain approximate optimal designs for multi-dimensional linear regression on a large variety of design spaces. We focus on the two commonly used optimal criteria, $D$- and $A$-optimal criteria. For $D$-optimality, we provide an alternative proof for the monotonic convergence for $D$-optimal criterion and propose an efficient computational algorithm to obtain the approximate $D$-optimal design. We further show that the proposed algorithm converges to the $D$-optimal design, and then prove that the approximate $D$-optimal design converges to the continuous $D$-optimal design under certain conditions. For $A$-optimality, we provide an efficient algorithm to obtain approximate $A$-optimal design and conjecture the monotonicity of the proposed algorithm. Numerical comparisons suggest that the proposed algorithms perform well and they are comparable or superior to some existing algorithms.

We propose a method that uses near-infrared plus uvby photometry to identify potentially extensive circumstellar dusty environment about F and A stars. The method has been applied to a sample of ~900 metal rich reddened F stars with 2MASS and uvby data, suggesting the presence of circumstellar dust emitting in the near infrared for ~70 stars. The log T_e - M_V diagram suggests that most, if not all, of them are likely pre-mainsequence (PMS). They seem to be consistent with being a continuation of the class of Herbig Ae/Be PMS stars into the spectral type F. Their number drops sharply downward of log T_e ~ 3.84 (spectral types later than ~F5), which may provide new clues to the PMS evolution of stars with 1 to 2 solar mass. We present a list of 21 most conspicuous candidate stars with circumstellar dust. About half of them are associated with the extended star-forming region around rho Oph. The brightest of these 21 stars, with V < 7.5, turn out to be IRAS sources, suggesting the presence of heated dust emitting in the far infrared. Also in this list, HD 81270 is reported as a very unusual star moving away from the Galactic plane at a projected speed of 70 km/sec.

First results of ALICE on the production of nuclei and antinuclei in pp collisions at \surd s = 7 TeV are presented. These particles are identified using the energy loss (dE/dx) measurements in the Time Projection Chamber. The Inner Tracking System allows a precise determination of the event vertex, by which primary and secondary particles are well separated. The high statistics of over 350 M events give a significant number of light nuclei and antinuclei such as (anti)deuterons, (anti)tritons, (anti)Helium3 and possibly (anti)hypertritons. The study of nuclei and antinuclei will help to understand their production mechanisms. Antinuclei production as a function of particle multiplicity in an event is discussed in this respect. Various particle ratios obtained from these collisions using predictions from a statistical model are also presented.

We derive the necessary conditions for implementing a regulator that depends on both momentum and frequency in the nonperturbative renormalization group flow equations of out-of-equilibrium statistical systems. We consider model A as a benchmark and compute its dynamical critical exponent $z$. This allows us to show that frequency regulators compatible with causality and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem can be devised. We show that when the Principle of Minimal Sensitivity (PMS) is employed to optimize the critical exponents $\eta$, $\nu$ and $z$, the use of frequency regulators becomes necessary to make the PMS a self-consistent criterion.

We suggest to subject anharmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensates to sinusoidal forcing with a smooth, slowly changing envelope, and to measure the coherence of the system after such pulses. In a series of measurements with successively increased maximum forcing strength one then expects an adiabatic return of the condensate to its initial state as long as the pulses remain sufficiently weak. In contrast, once the maximum driving amplitude exceeds a certain critical value there should be a drastic loss of coherence, reflecting significant heating induced by the pulse. This predicted experimental signature is traced to the loss of an effective adiabatic invariant, and to the ensuing breakdown of adiabatic motion of the system's Floquet state when the many-body dynamics become chaotic. Our scenario is illustrated with the help of a two-site model of a forced bosonic Josephson junction, but should also hold for other, experimentally accessible configurations.

First-Order Algorithms Without Lipschitz Gradient: A Sequential Local Optimization Approach

First-order algorithms have been popular for solving convex and non-convex optimization problems. A key assumption for the majority of these algorithms is that the gradient of the objective function is globally Lipschitz continuous, but many contemporary problems such as tensor decomposition fail to satisfy such an assumption. This paper develops a sequential local optimization (SLO) framework of first-order algorithms that can effectively optimize problems without Lipschitz gradient. Operating on the assumption that the gradients are {\it locally} Lipschitz continuous over any compact set, the proposed framework carefully restricts the distance between two successive iterates. We show that the proposed framework can easily adapt to existing first-order methods such as gradient descent (GD), normalized gradient descent (NGD), accelerated gradient descent (AGD), as well as GD with Armijo line search. Remarkably, the latter algorithm is totally parameter-free and do not even require the knowledge of local Lipschitz constants. We show that for the proposed algorithms to achieve gradient error bound of $\|\nabla f(x)\|^2\le \epsilon$, it requires at most $\mathcal{O}(\frac{1}{\epsilon}\times \mathcal{L}(Y))$ total access to the gradient oracle, where $\mathcal{L}(Y)$ characterizes how the local Lipschitz constants grow with the size of a given set $Y$. Moreover, we show that the variant of AGD improves the dependency on both $\epsilon$ and the growth function $\mathcal{L}(Y)$. The proposed algorithms complement the existing Bregman Proximal Gradient (BPG) algorithm, because they do not require the global information about problem structure to construct and solve Bregman proximal mappings.

Motor imagery based brain-computer interfaces (MI-BCIs) allow the control of devices and communication by imagining different muscle movements. However, most studies have reported a problem of "BCI-illiteracy" that does not have enough performance to use MI-BCI. Therefore, understanding subjects with poor performance and finding the cause of performance variation is still an important challenge. In this study, we proposed predictors of MI performance using effective connectivity in resting-state EEG. As a result, the high and low MI performance groups had a significant difference as 23% MI performance difference. We also found that connection from right lateral parietal to left lateral parietal in resting-state EEG was correlated significantly with MI performance (r = -0.37). These findings could help to understand BCI-illiteracy and to consider alternatives that are appropriate for the subject.

Let $f$ be a polynomial map from $\mathbb R^m$ to $\mathbb R^n$ with $m>n$. Fix a point $t_0\in \mathbb R^n$ and choose an $n$-dimensional ball $D_{t_0}$ centered at $t_0$ and small enough with respect to the canonical stratification of $\mathbb R^n$ given according to the bifurcation set of $f$. We show that the restriction of $f$ to $f^{-1}(D_{t_0})$ is a Serre fibration if and only if certain relative homotopy groups defined for arcs on the closures of strata on $D_{t_0}$ with endpoint $t_0$ are all trivial. We present an example of atypical fiber of a fibration over an arc that cannot be detected by the integral homology groups of the atypical fiber and its nearby fiber, but is detected by our relative homotopy groups.

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study contact between a rigid, nonadhesive, spherical tip with radius of order 30nm and a flat elastic substrate covered with a fluid monolayer of adsorbed chain molecules. Previous studies of bare surfaces showed that the atomic scale deviations from a sphere that are present on any tip constructed from discrete atoms lead to significant deviations from continuum theory and dramatic variability in friction forces. Introducing an adsorbed monolayer leads to larger deviations from continuum theory, but decreases the variations between tips with different atomic structure. Although the film is fluid, it remains in the contact and behaves qualitatively like a thin elastic coating except for certain tips at high loads. Measures of the contact area based on the moments or outer limits of the pressure distribution and on counting contacting atoms are compared. The number of tip atoms making contact in a time interval grows as a power of the interval when the film is present and logarithmically with the interval for bare surfaces. Friction is measured by displacing the tip at a constant velocity or pulling the tip with a spring. Both static and kinetic friction rise linearly with load at small loads. Transitions in the state of the film lead to nonlinear behavior at large loads. The friction is less clearly correlated with contact area than load.

We compute transverse momentum and momentum integrated multiplicity distributions consistently in the IP-Glasma model for proton-proton and proton-lead collisions at the LHC, in deuteron-gold collisions at RHIC, and in heavy ion collisions at both RHIC and LHC energies. Several sources of sub-nucleon scale contributions to the multiplicity distributions are identified. Our results, which are constrained by inclusive and diffractive deeply inelastic scattering data from HERA, are compared to measured distributions for a range of collision energies. These results are an essential first step in quantifying the relative role of initial and final state effects on multiparticle correlations in light and heavy ion collisions.

We study the radiative lepton flavor violating l_i -> l_j\gamma decays in the two Higgs doublet model, respecting the Randall Sundrum scenario and estimate the contributions of the KK modes of left (right) handed charged lepton doublets (singlets) on the branching ratios. We observe that the branching ratios are sensitive to the contributions of the charged lepton KK modes.

The spontaneous spinning of a rattleback placed on a vibrating platform is investigated. The rattleback is a toy with some curious properties. When placed on a surface with reasonable friction, the rattleback has a preferred direction of spin. If rotated anti to it, longitudinal vibrations are set up and spin direction is reversed. In this paper, the dynamics of a rattleback placed on a sinusoidally vibrating platform are simulated. We can expect base vibrations to excite the pitch motion of the rattleback, which, because of the coupling between pitch and spin motion, should cause the rattleback to spin. Results are presented which show that this indeed is the case- the rattleback has a mono-peak spin resonance with respect to base vibrations. The rattleback, thus, transduces translating vibrations into continuous rotary motion and, therefore, is ideal for applications in Energy harvesting and Vibration sensing. The dynamic response of the rattleback was found to be composed of two principal frequencies that appeared in the pitch and rolling motions. One of the frequencies was found to have a large coupling with the spin of the rattleback. Spin resonance was found to occur when the base oscillatory frequency was twice the value of the coupled frequency. A linearized model is developed which can predict the values of the two frequencies accurately and analytical expressions for the same in terms of the parameters of the rattleback have been derived. The analysis, thus, forms an effective and easy method for obtaining the spin resonant frequency of a given rattleback. Novel ideas for applications utilizing the phenomenon of spin resonance, for example, an energy harvester composed of a magnetized rattleback surrounded by ferromagnetic walls and a small scale vibration sensor comprising an array of several magnetized rattlebacks, are included.

Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) provide an efficient way to model real-world sequential decision making processes. Motivated by the problem of maintenance and inspection of a group of infrastructure components with independent dynamics, this paper presents an algorithm to find the optimal policy for a multi-component budget-constrained POMDP. We first introduce a budgeted-POMDP model (b-POMDP) which enables us to find the optimal policy for a POMDP while adhering to budget constraints. Next, we prove that the value function or maximal collected reward for a b-POMDP is a concave function of the budget for the finite horizon case. Our second contribution is an algorithm to calculate the optimal policy for a multi-component budget-constrained POMDP by finding the optimal budget split among the individual component POMDPs. The optimal budget split is posed as a welfare maximization problem and the solution is computed by exploiting the concave nature of the value function. We illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm by proposing a maintenance and inspection policy for a group of real-world infrastructure components with different deterioration dynamics, inspection and maintenance costs. We show that the proposed algorithm vastly outperforms the policy currently used in practice.

The motion of a thin layer of granular material on a plate undergoing sinusoidal vibrations is considered. We develop equations of motion for the local thickness and the horizontal velocity of the layer. The driving comes from the violent impact of the grains on the plate. A linear stability theory reveals that the waves are excited non-resonantly, in contrast to the usual Faraday waves in liquids. Together with the experimentally observed continuum scaling, the model suggests a close connection between the neutral curve and the dispersion relation of the waves, which agrees quite well with experiments. For strong hysteresis we find localized oscillon solutions.

Haag's theorem cries out for explanation and critical assessment: it sounds the alarm that something is (perhaps) not right in one of the standard way of constructing interacting fields to be used in generating predictions for scattering experiments. Viewpoints as to the precise nature of the problem, the appropriate solution, and subsequently-called-for developments in areas of physics, mathematics, and philosophy differ widely. In this paper, we develop and deploy a conceptual framework for critically assessing these disparate responses to Haag's theorem. Doing so reveals the driving force of more general questions as to the nature and purpose of foundational work in physics.

Whereas many studies have examined stabilization of emulsions and foams in low salinity aqueous phases with nanoparticles (NPs) with and without added surfactants, interest has grown recently in much higher salinities relevant to subsurface oil and gas applications. It is shown for the first time that NPs grafted with well-defined low molecular weight ligands colloidally stable in concentrated brine (in particular, API brine, 8% NaCl + 2% CaCl2) and are interfacially active at the brine-air interface. These properties were achieved for three types of ligands: a nonionic diol called GLYMO and two short poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) oligomers with 6-12 EO repeat units. Carbon dioxide-in-water (C/W) foams could be formed only with modified NPs with higher surface pressures at the A/W interface. Furthermore, these ligands were sufficiently CO2-philic that the hydrophilic/CO2-philic balance of silica NPs was low enough for stabilization of CO2-in-water (C/W) foam with API brine. Additionally, NPs with these three ligands formed stable dispersions with various free molecular surfactants in DI water and even API brine (8% NaCl + 2% CaCl2) at room temperature. A wide variety of mixtures of NPs plus anionic, nonionic, or cationic mixtures that formed stable dispersions were also found to stabilize C/W foams in porous media at high salinity. These results provide a basis for future studies of the mechanism of foam stabilization with NPs and NP/surfactant mixtures at high salinity.

The physical mechanism for metal ablation induced by femtosecond laser irradiation was investigated. Results of calculations based on finite-temperature density functional theory (FTDFT) indicate that condensed copper becomes unstable at high electron temperatures due to an increase of electronic entropy at large volume, where the local density of states near the Fermi energy increases. Based on these results, an electronic entropy-driven (EED) model is proposed to explain metal ablation with a femtosecond laser. In addition, a mathematical model is developed for simulation of the laser ablation, where the effect of the electronic entropy is included. This mathematical model can quantitatively describe the experimental data in the low-laser-fuence region, where the electronic entropy effect is determined to be especially important.

We propose to use the intrinsic two-level system (TLS) defect states found naturally in integrated optomechanical devices for exploring cavity QED-like phenomena with localized phonons. The Jaynes-Cummings-type interaction between TLS and mechanics can reach the strong coupling regime for existing nano-optomechanical systems, observable via clear signatures in the optomechanical output spectrum. These signatures persist even at finite temperature, and we derive an explicit expression for the temperature at which they vanish. Further, the ability to drive the defect with a microwave field allows for realization of phonon blockade, and the available controls are sufficient to deterministically prepare non-classical states of the mechanical resonator.

Very recently a novel implementation of type-II seesaw mechanism for neutrino mass has been proposed in SU(5) grand unified theory with a number of desirable new physical phenomena beyond the standard model.Introducing heavy right-haded neutrinos and extra fermion singlets, in this work we show how the type-I seeaw cancellation mechanism works in this SU(5) framework. Besides predicting verifiable LFV decays, we further show that the model predicts dominant double beta decay with normal hierarchy or inverted hierarchy of active light neutrino masses in concordance with cosmological bound. In addition, a novel mechanism for heavy right-handed neutrino mass generation independent of type-II seesaw predicted mass hierarchy, is suggested in this work.

Many of today's deep neural network accelerators, e.g., Google's TPU and NVIDIA's tensor core, are built around accelerating the general matrix multiplication (i.e., GEMM). However, supporting convolution on GEMM-based accelerators is not trivial. The naive method explicitly lowers the convolution to GEMM, commonly known as im2col, which introduces significant performance and memory overhead. Existing implicit im2col algorithms require unscalable hardware and are inefficient in supporting important convolution variants such as strided convolution. In this paper, we propose a memory-efficient and hardware-friendly implicit im2col algorithm used by Google's TPU, which dynamically converts a convolution into a GEMM with practically zero performance and memory overhead, fully unleashing the power of GEMM engines. Through comprehensive experimental results, we quantitatively argue that this algorithm has been adopted in commercial closed-source platforms, and we are the first to describe its high-level idea and implementation details. Finally, we show that our algorithm can also be generally applied to Nvidia's Tensor Cores (TC), matching and out-performing the measured performance on TCs.

Reconfigurable surfaces facilitating energy-efficient, intelligent surface wave propagation have recently emerged as a technology that finds applications in many-core systems and 6G wireless communications. In this paper, we consider the porosity-based reconfigurable surface where there are cavities that can be filled on-demand with fluid metal such as Galinstan, in order to create adaptable channels for efficient wave propagation. We aim to investigate the propagation phenomenon of signal fluctuation resulting from the diffraction of discrete porosity and study how different porosity patterns affect this phenomenon. Our results cover the frequency range between 21.7GHz and 31.6GHz when a WR-34 waveguide is used as the transducer.

We theoretically propose a new route to control magnetic and topological orders in a broad class of insulating magnets with a DC electric field. We show from the strong-coupling expansion that magnetic exchange interactions along the electric-field direction are generally enhanced in Mott insulators. We demonstrate that several magnetic or topological ordered phases such as quantum spin liquids and Haldane-gap states can be derived if we apply a strong enough DC electric field to typical frustrated or low-dimensional magnets. Our proposal is effective especially for weak Mott insulators and magnets in the vicinity of quantum critical points, and would also be applicable for magnets under low-frequency AC electric fields such as terahertz laser pulses. A similar strategy of controlling exchange interactions can also be utilized in cold atomic systems.

The centrality in a network is a popular metric for agents' network positions and is often used in regression models to model the network effect on an outcome variable of interest. In empirical studies, researchers often adopt a two-stage procedure to first estimate the centrality and then infer the network effect using the estimated centrality. Despite its prevalent adoption, this two-stage procedure lacks theoretical backing and can fail in both estimation and inference. We, therefore, propose a unified framework, under which we prove the shortcomings of the two-stage in centrality estimation and the undesirable consequences in the regression. We then propose a novel supervised network centrality estimation (SuperCENT) methodology that simultaneously yields superior estimations of the centrality and the network effect and provides valid and narrower confidence intervals than those from the two-stage. We showcase the superiority of SuperCENT in predicting the currency risk premium based on the global trade network.

The LIGO/Virgo detected a gravitational wave (GW) event, named GW200224_222234 (a.k.a. S200224ca) and classified as a binary-black-hole coalescence, on February 24, 2020. Given its relatively small localization skymap (71 deg$^2$ for a 90% credible region; revised to 50 deg$^2$ in GWTC-3), we performed target-of-opportunity observations using the Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) in the $r2$- and $z$-bands. Observations were conducted on February 25 and 28 and March 23, 2020, with the first epoch beginning 12.3 h after the GW detection. The survey covered the highest probability sky area of 56.6 deg$^2$, corresponding to a 91% probability. This was the first deep follow-up ($m_{r}\gtrsim24, m_{z}\gtrsim23$) for a binary-black-hole merger covering $>$90% of the localization. By performing image subtraction and candidate screening including light curve fitting with transient templates and examples, we found 22 off-nucleus transients that were not ruled out as the counterparts of GW200224_222234 with only our Subaru/HSC data. We also performed GTC/OSIRIS spectroscopy of the probable host galaxies for five candidates; two are likely to be located within the 3D skymap, whereas the others are not. In conclusion, 19 transients remain as possible optical counterparts of GW200224_222234; however, we could not identify a unique promising counterpart. If there are no counterparts in the remaining candidates, the upper limits of optical luminosity are $\nu L_{\nu} < 5.2^{+2.4}_{-1.9}\times 10^{41}$ erg s$^{-1}$ and $\nu L_{\nu} < 1.8^{+0.8}_{-0.6}\times 10^{42}$ erg s$^{-1}$ in the $r2$- and $z$-bands, respectively, at $\sim$12 h after GW detection. We also discuss improvements in the strategies of optical follow-ups for future GW events.

We present a new approach to calculating magnetic fringing fields from head-to-head type domain walls in planar magnetic nanowires. In contrast to calculations based on micromagnetically simulated structures the descriptions of the fields are for the most part analytic and thus significantly less time and resource intensive. The models presented begin with an intuitive picture of domain walls, which is built upon in a phenomenological manner. Comparisons with fields calculated using micromagnetic methods show good quantitative agreement.

Consider a system of coalescing random walks where each individual performs random walk over a finite graph G, or (more generally) evolves according to some reversible Markov chain generator Q. Let C be the first time at which all walkers have coalesced into a single cluster. C is closely related to the consensus time of the voter model for this G or Q. We prove that the expected value of C is at most a constant multiple of the largest hitting time of an element in the state space. This solves a problem posed by Aldous and Fill and gives sharp bounds in many examples, including all vertex-transitive graphs. We also obtain results on the expected time until only k>1 clusters remain. Our proof tools include a new exponential inequality for the meeting time of a reversible Markov chain and a deterministic trajectory, which we believe to be of independent interest.

Analysis of the 24-Hour Activity Cycle: An illustration examining the association with cognitive function in the Adult Changes in Thought (ACT) Study

The 24-hour activity cycle (24HAC) is a new paradigm for studying activity behaviors in relation to health outcomes. This approach captures the interrelatedness of the daily time spent in physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep. We illustrate and compare the use of three popular approaches, namely isotemporal substitution model (ISM), compositional data analysis (CoDA), and latent profile analysis (LPA) for modeling outcome associations with the 24HAC. We apply these approaches to assess an association with a cognitive outcome, measured by CASI item response theory (IRT) score, in a cohort of 1034 older adults (mean [range] age = 77 [65-100]; 55.8% female; 90% White) who were part of the Adult Changes in Thought (ACT) Activity Monitoring (ACT-AM) sub-study. PA and SB were assessed with thigh-worn activPAL accelerometers for 7 days. We highlight differences in assumptions between the three approaches, discuss statistical challenges, and provide guidance on interpretation and selecting an appropriate approach. ISM is easiest to apply and interpret; however, the typical ISM model assumes a linear association. CoDA specifies a non-linear association through isometric logratio transformations that are more challenging to apply and interpret. LPA can classify individuals into groups with similar time-use patterns. Inference on associations of latent profiles with health outcomes need to account for the uncertainty of the LPA classifications which is often ignored. The selection of the most appropriate method should be guided by the scientific questions of interest and the applicability of each model's assumptions. The analytic results did not suggest that less time spent on SB and more in PA was associated with better cognitive function. Further research is needed into the health implications of the distinct 24HAC patterns identified in this cohort.

A Benchmark and a Baseline for Robust Multi-view Depth Estimation

Recent deep learning approaches for multi-view depth estimation are employed either in a depth-from-video or a multi-view stereo setting. Despite different settings, these approaches are technically similar: they correlate multiple source views with a keyview to estimate a depth map for the keyview. In this work, we introduce the Robust Multi-View Depth Benchmark that is built upon a set of public datasets and allows evaluation in both settings on data from different domains. We evaluate recent approaches and find imbalanced performances across domains. Further, we consider a third setting, where camera poses are available and the objective is to estimate the corresponding depth maps with their correct scale. We show that recent approaches do not generalize across datasets in this setting. This is because their cost volume output runs out of distribution. To resolve this, we present the Robust MVD Baseline model for multi-view depth estimation, which is built upon existing components but employs a novel scale augmentation procedure. It can be applied for robust multi-view depth estimation, independent of the target data. We provide code for the proposed benchmark and baseline model at https://github.com/lmb-freiburg/robustmvd.

We investigate the phase coherence properties of ultracold Bose gases in optical lattices, with special emphasis on the Mott insulating phase. We show that phase coherence on short length scales persists even deep in the insulating phase, preserving a finite visibility of the interference pattern observed after free expansion. This behavior can be attributed to a coherent admixture of particle/hole pairs to the perfect Mott state for small but finite tunneling. In addition, small but reproducible ``kinks'' are seen in the visibility, in a broad range of atom numbers. We interpret them as signatures for density redistribution in the shell structure of the trapped Mott insulator.

We manipulate correlations between Rydberg excitations in cold atom samples using a rotary-echo technique. The correlations are due to interactions between the Rydberg atoms. In the rotary-echo excitation sequence, the phase of the excitation pulse is flipped at a selected time during the pulse. We measure the resultant change in the spatial pair correlation function of the excitations via direct position-sensitive atom imaging. For zero detuning of the lasers from the interaction-free Rydberg-excitation resonance, the pair-correlation value at the most likely nearest-neighbor Rydberg-atom distance is substantially enhanced when the phase is flipped at the middle of the excitation pulse. In this case, the rotary echo eliminates most uncorrelated (un-paired) atoms, leaving an abundance of correlated atom pairs at the end of the sequence. In off-resonant cases, a complementary behavior is observed. We further characterize the effect of the rotary-echo excitation sequence on the excitation-number statistics of the atom sample.

Individually, each provides an important constraint to any given model; in concert, the four represent a fundamental (intractable) boundary condition for chemodynamical simulations. We review the current state-of-the-art semi-analytical and chemodynamical models for the Milky Way, emphasising the strengths and weaknesses of both approaches.

Series of $I(V)$ characteristic and bias-dependent differential resistance $dV/dI(V)$ for point-contacts on the single crystals of two-band superconductor MgB$_2$ were measured in magnetic field up to 9 T. We have obtained magnetic field dependences of the excess current on the $I(V)$ curves and analyzed them using Koshelev and Golubov (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 90}, 177002 (2003)) theoretical results for the mixed state of a dirty two-band superconductor. Introducing a simple model for the excess current in the point contact in the mixed state our data can be qualitatively described utilizing theoretical magnetic filed behavior of the $\sigma$ and $\pi$-band superconducting order parameters and the corresponding averaged electronic density of states in MgB$_2$.

The biggest challenge in hybrid systems verification is the handling of differential equations. Because computable closed-form solutions only exist for very simple differential equations, proof certificates have been proposed for more scalable verification. Search procedures for these proof certificates are still rather ad-hoc, though, because the problem structure is only understood poorly. We investigate differential invariants, which define an induction principle for differential equations and which can be checked for invariance along a differential equation just by using their differential structure, without having to solve them. We study the structural properties of differential invariants. To analyze trade-offs for proof search complexity, we identify more than a dozen relations between several classes of differential invariants and compare their deductive power. As our main results, we analyze the deductive power of differential cuts and the deductive power of differential invariants with auxiliary differential variables. We refute the differential cut elimination hypothesis and show that, unlike standard cuts, differential cuts are fundamental proof principles that strictly increase the deductive power. We also prove that the deductive power increases further when adding auxiliary differential variables to the dynamics.

We show that the skein vector space of the 3-torus is finitely generated. We show that it is generated by 9 elements: the empty set, some simple closed curves representing the non null elements of the first homology group with coefficients in \Z_2, and a link consisting of two parallel copies of one of the previous non empty knots.

A fiber withdrawn from a bath of a dilute particulate suspension exhibits different coating regimes depending on the physical properties of the fluid, the withdrawal speed, the particle sizes, and the radius of the fiber. Our experiments indicate that only the liquid without particles is entrained for thin coating films. Beyond a threshold capillary number, the fiber is coated by a liquid film with entrained particles. We systematically characterize the role of the capillary number, the particle size, and the fiber radius on the threshold speed for particle entrainment. We discuss the boundary between these two regimes and show that the thickness of the liquid film at the stagnation point controls the entrainment process. The radius of the fiber provides a new degree of control in capillary filtering, allowing greater control over the size of the particles entrained in the film.

Multidefender Security Games

Stackelberg security game models and associated computational tools have seen deployment in a number of high-consequence security settings, such as LAX canine patrols and Federal Air Marshal Service. These models focus on isolated systems with only one defender, despite being part of a more complex system with multiple players. Furthermore, many real systems such as transportation networks and the power grid exhibit interdependencies between targets and, consequently, between decision makers jointly charged with protecting them. To understand such multidefender strategic interactions present in security, we investigate game theoretic models of security games with multiple defenders. Unlike most prior analysis, we focus on the situations in which each defender must protect multiple targets, so that even a single defender's best response decision is, in general, highly non-trivial. We start with an analytical investigation of multidefender security games with independent targets, offering an equilibrium and price-of-anarchy analysis of three models with increasing generality. In all models, we find that defenders have the incentive to over-protect targets, at times significantly. Additionally, in the simpler models, we find that the price of anarchy is unbounded, linearly increasing both in the number of defenders and the number of targets per defender. Considering interdependencies among targets, we develop a novel mixed-integer linear programming formulation to compute a defender's best response, and make use of this formulation in approximating Nash equilibria of the game. We apply this approach towards computational strategic analysis of several models of networks representing interdependencies, including real-world power networks. Our analysis shows how network structure and the probability of failure spread determine the propensity of defenders to over- or under-invest in security.

The occurrence of a pygmy dipole resonance in proton rich Ar-32 and Ar-34 is studied using the unitary correlator operator method interaction Vucom, based on Argonne V18. Predictions from the random phase approximation (RPA) and the shell model in a no-core basis are compared. It is found that the inclusion of configuration mixing up to two-particle--two-holes broadens the pygmy strength slightly and reduces sensibly its strength, as compared to the RPA predictions. For Ar-32 a clear peak associated with a pygmy resonance is found. For Ar-34, the pygmy states are obtained close to the giant dipole resonance and mix with it.

How and when do galaxies form? Studies of the microwave background radiation reveal that the Universe is spectacularly homogenous at redshift z~1000. Observations of the local Universe reveal that by z=0 much of the luminous matter has condensed into mature, gravitationally-bound structures. One of the primary challenges to astronomers today is to achieve a robust understanding of this process of galaxy formation and evolution. Locating and studying young galaxies at large look-back times is an essential aspect of this program. We review the systematic observational techniques used to identify galaxies at early cosmic epochs. In the past few years, the study of normal, star-forming galaxies at z>3 has become possible; indeed, successful methods have been developed to push the frontier past z=5. We are now directly observing individual galaxies within a Gyr of the Big Bang. We present a detailed review of the many search methods used for identifying distant galaxies, consider the biases inherent in different search strategies, and discuss early results of these studies. We conclude with goals for future studies at the start of the 21st century.

New constraints on a light CP-odd Higgs boson and related NMSSM Ideal Higgs Scenarios

Recent BaBar limits on $\br(\Upsilon(3S)\to \gam a\to \gam \tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\br(\Upsilon(3S)\to \gam a\to \gam \mu^+\mu^-)$ provide increased constraints on the $a b\anti b$ coupling of a CP-odd Higgs boson, $a$, with $m_a<M_{\Upsilon(3S)}$. We extract these limits from the BaBar data and compare to the limits previously obtained using other data sets, especially the CLEO-III $\br(\Upsilon(1S)\to \gam\to\tau^+\tau^-)$ limits. Comparisons are made to predictions in the context of "ideal"-Higgs NMSSM scenarios, in which the lightest CP-even Higgs boson, $h_1$, can have mass below $105\gev$ (as preferred by precision electroweak data) and yet can escape old LEP limits by virtue of decays to a pair of the lightest CP-odd Higgs bosons, $h_1\to a_1a_1$, with $m_{a_1}<2m_B$. Most such scenarios with $m_{a_1}<2m_\tau$ are eliminated, but the bulk of the $m_{a_1}>7.5\gev$ scenarios, which are theoretically the most favored, survive. We also outline the impact of the new ALEPH LEP results in the $\epem\to Z+4\tau$ channel. For $\tan\beta\geq 3$, only NMSSM ideal Higgs scenarios with $m_{h_1}\gsim 98\gev$ and $m_{a_1}$ close to $2m_B $ satisfy the ALEPH limits. For $\tan\beta\lsim 2$, the ALEPH limits are easily satisfied for the most theoretically preferred NMSSM scenarios, which are those with $m_{a_1}$ close to $2m_B$ and $m_{h_1}\sim 90\gev-100\gev$.

We compute the energy dependence of the P_T-integrated cross section of directly produced quarkonia in pp collisions at next-to-leading order (NLO), namely up to alpha_s^3, within nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD). Our analysis is based on the idea that the P_T-integrated and the P_T-differential cross sections can be treated as two different observables. The colour-octet NRQCD parameters needed to predict the P_T-integrated yield can thus be extracted from the fits of the P_T-differential cross sections at mid and large P_T. For the first time, the total cross section is evaluated in NRQCD at full NLO accuracy using the recent NLO fits of the P_T-differential yields at RHIC, the Tevatron and the LHC. Both the normalisation and the energy dependence of the J/psi, psi' and Upsilon(1S), we obtained, are in disagreement with the data irrespective of the fit method. The same is true if one uses CEM-like colour-octet NRQCD parameters. If, on the contrary, one disregards the colour-octet contribution, the existing data in the TeV range are well described by the alpha_s^3 contribution in the colour-singlet model --which, at alpha_s^4, however shows an unphysical energy dependence. A similar observation is made for eta(c,b). This calls for a full NNLO or for a resummation of the initial-state radiation in this channel. In any case, past claims that colour-octet transitions are dominantly responsible for low-P_T quarkonium production are not supported by our results. This may impact the interpretation of quarkonium suppression in high-energy proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions.

Code Coverage Aware Test Generation Using Constraint Solver

Code coverage has been used in the software testing context mostly as a metric to assess a generated test suite's quality. Recently, code coverage analysis is used as a white-box testing technique for test optimization. Most of the research activities focus on using code coverage for test prioritization and selection within automated testing strategies. Less effort has been paid in the literature to use code coverage for test generation. This paper introduces a new Code Coverage-based Test Case Generation (CCTG) concept that changes the current practices by utilizing the code coverage analysis in the test generation process. CCTG uses the code coverage data to calculate the input parameters' impact for a constraint solver to automate the generation of effective test suites. We applied this approach to a few real-world case studies. The results showed that the new test generation approach could generate effective test cases and detect new faults.

The new formula depends non-trivially on the speed of sound and on the shape or width parameter of the measured (pseudo)rapidity distribution.

In this paper, we critically review the potential of today's terrestrial wireless communication systems including wireless cellular technologies (GSM, UMTS, LTE, NR), wireless local area networks (WLANs), and wireless sensor networks (WSNs), for estimating channel state information (CSI), the ratio between training and information symbols and the rate of channel variation, and the potential use of CSI in environment aware wireless communications. The research reveals, that early communication systems provide means for narrowband channel estimation and the CSI is only available as channel attenuation based on signal level measurements. By increasing the spectral bandwidth of communications, the CSI is estimated in some form of channel impulse response (CIR) in almost all currently used radio technologies, but this information is generally not available outside the communication systems. Also, the CSI is estimated only for the channel with active communications. The new radio technology (NR) offers the possibility of estimating the CIR for non-active channels as well, and thus the possibility of initiating environmentally aware wireless communications.

Humans can determine a proper strategy to grasp an object according to the measured physical attributes or the prior knowledge of the object. This paper proposes an approach to determining the strategy of dexterous grasping by using an anthropomorphic robotic hand simply based on a label or a description of an object. Object attributes are parsed from natural-language descriptions and augmented with an object knowledge base that is scraped from retailer websites. A novel metric named joint probability distance is defined to measure distance between object attributes. The probability distribution of grasp types for the given object is learned using a deep neural network which takes in object features as input. The action of the multi-fingered hand with redundant degrees of freedom (DoF) is controlled by a linear inverse-kinematics model of grasp topology and scales. The grasping strategy generated by the proposed approach is evaluated both by simulation and execution on a Sawyer robot with an AR10 robotic hand.

In this paper, we propose a new method to calculate the mode functions in the noncommutative power-law inflation model. In this model, all the modes created when the stringy space-time uncertainty relation is satisfied are generated inside the Hubble horizon during inflation. It turns out that a linear term describing the noncommutative space-time effect contributes to the power spectra of the scalar and tensor perturbations. Confronting this model with latest results from \textit{Planck} and BICEP2, we constrain the parameters in this model and we find it is well consistent with observations.

In this paper, we establish a precise connection between higher rho invariants and delocalized eta invariants. Given an element in a discrete group, if its conjugacy class has polynomial growth, then there is a natural trace map on the $K_0$-group of its group $C^\ast$-algebra. For each such trace map, we construct a determinant map on secondary higher invariants. We show that, under the evaluation of this determinant map, the image of a higher rho invariant is precisely the corresponding delocalized eta invariant of Lott. As a consequence, we show that if the Baum-Connes conjecture holds for a group, then Lott's delocalized eta invariants take values in algebraic numbers. We also generalize Lott's delocalized eta invariant to the case where the corresponding conjugacy class does not have polynomial growth, provided that the strong Novikov conjecture holds for the group.

In this paper, we consider a downlink orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system from a base station to a high-speed train (HST) equipped with fully/partly calibrated massive uniform linear antenna-array (ULA) in wireless environments with abundant scatterers. Multiple Doppler frequency offsets (DFOs) stemming from intensive propagation paths together with transceiver oscillator frequency offset (OFO) result in a fast time-varying frequency-selective channel. We develop an angle domain carrier frequency offset (CFO, general designation for DFO and OFO) estimation approach. A high-resolution beamforming network is designed to separate different DFOs into a set of parallel branches in angle domain such that each branch is mainly affected by a single dominant DFO. Then, a joint estimation algorithm for both maximum DFO and OFO is developed for fully calibrated ULA. Next, its estimation mean square error (MSE) performance is analyzed under inter-subarray mismatches. To mitigate the detrimental effects of inter-subarray mismatches, we introduce a calibration-oriented beamforming parameter (COBP) and develop the corresponding modified joint estimation algorithm for partly calibrated ULA. Moreover, the Cramer-Rao lower bound of CFO estimation is derived. Both theoretical and numerical results are provided to corroborate the proposed method.

The SU(3) symmetry breaking effects are taken into account by including the contributions from the strange quark mass and assuming different values for the strange and the up down quark condensates. We find $g_{K N \Lambda}/\sqrt{4 \pi} = - 1.96 $ and $g_{K N \Sigma}/\sqrt{4 \pi} = 0.33 $

We revisit the Schwinger effect in de Sitter, anti-de Sitter spaces and charged black holes, and explore the interplay between quantum electrodynamics and the quantum gravity effect at one-loop level. We then advance a thermal interpretation of the Schwinger effect in curved spacetimes. Finally, we show that the Schwinger effect in a near-extremal black hole differs from Hawking radiation of charged particles in a non-extremal black hole and is factorized into those in an anti-de Sitter space and a Rindler space with the surface gravity for acceleration.

We report results of a search for light Dark Matter WIMPs with CDEX-1 experiment at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory, based on 53.9 kg-days of data from a p-type point-contact germanium detector enclosed by a NaI(Tl) crystal scintillator as anti-Compton detector. The event rate and spectrum above the analysis threshold of 475 eVee are consistent with the understood background model. Part of the allowed regions for WIMP-nucleus coherent elastic scattering at WIMP mass of 6-20 GeV are probed and excluded. Independent of interaction channels, this result contradicts the interpretation that the anomalous excesses of the CoGeNT experiment are induced by Dark Matter, since identical detector techniques are used in both experiments.

Locate and Label: A Two-stage Identifier for Nested Named Entity Recognition

Named entity recognition (NER) is a well-studied task in natural language processing. Traditional NER research only deals with flat entities and ignores nested entities. The span-based methods treat entity recognition as a span classification task. Although these methods have the innate ability to handle nested NER, they suffer from high computational cost, ignorance of boundary information, under-utilization of the spans that partially match with entities, and difficulties in long entity recognition. To tackle these issues, we propose a two-stage entity identifier. First we generate span proposals by filtering and boundary regression on the seed spans to locate the entities, and then label the boundary-adjusted span proposals with the corresponding categories. Our method effectively utilizes the boundary information of entities and partially matched spans during training. Through boundary regression, entities of any length can be covered theoretically, which improves the ability to recognize long entities. In addition, many low-quality seed spans are filtered out in the first stage, which reduces the time complexity of inference. Experiments on nested NER datasets demonstrate that our proposed method outperforms previous state-of-the-art models.

Three methods are used to reconstruct two-dimensional instantaneous velocity fields in a turbulent flow under rotation. The first two methods both use the linear proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), which are Gappy POD (GPOD) and Extended POD (EPOD), while the third one reconstructs the flow using a fully non-linear Convolutional Neural Network embedded in a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). First, we show that there is always an optimal number of modes regarding a specific gap for the GPOD with dimension reduction. Moreover, adopting a Lasso regularizer for GPOD provides comparable reconstruction results. In order to systematically compare the applicability of the three tools, we consider a square gap at changing the size. Results show that compared with POD-based methods, GAN reconstruction not only has a smaller $L_2$ error, but also better turbulent statistics of both the velocity module and the velocity module gradient. This can be attributed to the ability of nonlinearity expression of the network and the presence of adversarial loss during the GAN training. We also investigate effects of the adversarial ratio, which controls the compromising between the $L_2$ error and the statistical properties. Finally, we assess the reconstruction on random gappiness. All methods perform well for small- and medium-size gaps, while GAN works better when the gappiness is large.

We present VLA NH3 and PdBI NH2D and H13NC observations of the star forming core ahead of HH 80N, the optically obscured northern counterpart of the Herbig-Haro objects HH 80/81. The main goal is to determine the kinematical information of the high density regions of the core ($n\lesssim 10^5$ cm$^{-3}$), missed in previous works due to the depletion of the species observed (e.g. CS). The obtained maps show different kinematical signatures between the eastern and western parts of the core, suggesting a possible dynamical interaction of the core with the HH 80/81/80N outflow. The analysis of the Position-Velocity (PV) plots of these species rules out a previous interpretation of having a molecular ring-like structure of $6\times 10^4$ AU of radius traced by CS infalling onto a central protostar found in the core (IRS1). High degree of deuteration, with respect to the central part of the core harboring IRS1, is derived in the eastern part, where a dust condensation (SE) is located. This deuteration trend of NH3 suggests that SE is in a prestellar evolutionary stage, earlier than that of the IRS1. Since SE is the closest condensation to the HH 80N/81/80N outflow, in case of having outflow-core dynamical interaction, it should be perturbed first and be the most evolved condensation in the core. Therefore, the derived evolutionary sequence for SE and IRS1 makes the outflow triggered star formation on IRS1 unlikely.
