This paper is a sequel to "Exponential periods and o-minimality I" that the authors wrote together with Philipp Habegger. We complete the comparison between different definitions of exponential periods, and show that they all lead to the same notion. In the first paper, we show that naive exponential periods are absolutely convergent exponential periods. We also show that naive exponential periods are up to signs volumes of definable sets in the o-minimal structure generated by $\mathbb{Q}$, the real exponential function and ${\sin}|_{[0,1]}$. In this paper, we compare these definitions with cohomological exponential periods and periods of exponential Nori motives. In particular, naive exponential periods are the same as periods of exponential Nori motives, which justifies that the definition of naive exponential periods singles out the correct set of complex numbers to be called exponential periods.

Many key environmental, industrial, and energy processes rely on controlling fluid transport within subsurface porous media. These media are typically structurally heterogeneous, often with vertically-layered strata of distinct permeabilities -- leading to uneven partitioning of flow across strata, which can be undesirable. Here, using direct in situ visualization, we demonstrate that polymer additives can homogenize this flow by inducing a purely-elastic flow instability that generates random spatiotemporal fluctuations and excess flow resistance in individual strata. In particular, we find that this instability arises at smaller imposed flow rates in higher-permeability strata, diverting flow towards lower-permeability strata and helping to homogenize the flow. Guided by the experiments, we develop a parallel-resistor model that quantitatively predicts the flow rate at which this homogenization is optimized for a given stratified medium. Thus, our work provides a new approach to homogenizing fluid and passive scalar transport in heterogeneous porous media.

Problem Roulette (PR), an online study service at the University of Michigan, offers points-free formative practice to students preparing for examinations in introductory STEM courses. Using four years of PR data involving millions of problem attempts by thousands of students, we quantify benefits of increased practice study volume in introductory physics. After conditioning mean final grade on standardized (ACT/SAT) math test score, we analyze deviations based on student study volume. We find a strong effect; mean course grade rises quadratically with the logarithm of the total number of PR questions encountered over the term ($N_{\rm Q,tot}$), with an overall gain of $0.77 \pm 0.12$ grade points between $1 < N_{\rm Q,tot} < 1000$. The gains are persistent across the range of math test score represented in our sample. While $N_{\rm Q,tot}$ surely correlates with other study habits, the benefits of increased study in general still hold. A model for final grade using test score and study volume largely accounts for demographic stratification, including by sex, parental education level, number of parents at home, nationality / underrepresented minority status, and regional income level, with two significant exceptions: students whose parents did not earn a college degree, who earn $-0.27 \pm 0.04$ grade points ($6.1\sigma$) below expectations and underrepresented minority students at $-0.14 \pm 0.04$ points ($3.6\sigma$). Residual scatter in final grade remains comparable to the maximal study gains, implying that the model is far from deterministic: individual variation trumps mean trends. Our findings can help motivate students to study more and help teachers to identify which types of students may especially need such encouragement.

Recent redshift-distance measurements of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at cosmological distances suggest that two-third of the energy density of the universe is dominated by dark energy component with an effective negative pressure. This dark energy component is described by the equation of state $p_{x} = w \rho_{x}$ $(w \geq -1)$. We use gravitational lensing statistics to constrain the equation of state of this dark energy. We use $n(\Delta\theta)$, image separation distribution function of lensed quasars, as a tool to probe $w$. We find that for the observed range of $\Omega_m \sim 0.2 - 0.4$, $w$ should lie between $-0.8 \leq w \leq -0.4$ in order to have five lensed quasars in a sample of 867 optical quasars. This limit is highly sensitive to lens and Schechter parameters and evolution of galaxies.

Decoherence of molecular wave packets in an anharmonic potential

The time evolution of anharmonic molecular wave packets is investigated under the influence of the environment consisting of harmonic oscillators. These oscillators represent photon or phonon modes and assumed to be in thermal equilibrium. Our model explicitly incorporates the fact that in the case of a nonequidistant spectrum the rates of the environment induced transitions are different for each transition. The nonunitary time evolution is visualized by the aid of the Wigner function related to the vibrational state of the molecule. The time scale of decoherence is much shorter than that of dissipation, and gives rise to states which are mixtures of localized states along the phase space orbit of the corresponding classical particle. This behavior is to a large extent independent of the coupling strength, the temperature of the environment and also of the initial state.

We continue our study of the set $\mathfrak I_c$ of inner functions $u$ in $H^\infty$ with the property that there is $\eta\in ]0,1[$ such that the level set $\Omega_u(\eta):=\{z\in\mathbb D: |u(z)|<\eta\}$ is connected. These functions are called one-component inner functions. They play an important role in function theory and operator theory. Here we show that the composition of two one-component inner functions is again in $\mathfrak I_c$. We also give conditions under which a factor of one-component inner function belongs to $\mathfrak I_c$.

In this paper, we introduce a novel class of interacting vacuum models, based on recasting the equation of state originally developed in the context of lattice kinetic theory by Shan \& Chen as the coupling between the vacuum and cold dark matter (CDM). This coupling allows the vacuum to evolve and is nonlinear around a characteristic energy scale $\rho_*$, changing into a linear coupling with a typical power law evolution at scales much lower and much higher than $\rho_*$. Focusing on the simplest sub-class of models where the interaction consists only of an energy exchange and the CDM remains geodesic, we first illustrate the various possible models that can arise from the Shan--Chen coupling, with several different behaviours at both early and late times depending on the values of the model parameters selected. We then place the first observational constraints on this Shan--Chen interacting vacuum scenario, performing an MCMC analysis to find those values of the model and cosmological parameters which are favoured by observational data. We focus on models where the nonlinearity of the coupling is relevant at late times, choosing for the reference energy scale $\rho_*$, the critical energy density in $\Lambda$CDM. We show that the observational data we use are compatible with a wide range of models which result in different cosmologies. However, we also show that $\Lambda$CDM is preferred over all of the Shan--Chen interacting vacuum models that we study, and comment on the inability of these models to relax the $H_0$ and $\sigma_8$ tensions.

We present a mapping of a two-dimensional system of interacting bosons in a strong perpendicular magnetic field to an equivalent system of interacting bosons on the square lattice in the absence of the field. The mapping utilizes a magnetic Bloch and the corresponding magnetic Wannier single-particle basis in the lowest Landau level. By construction, the ground states of the resulting model of interacting bosons on the square lattice are gapped fractionalized liquids or gapless Bose metal states with broken time reversal symmetry at specific rational filling fractions.

We investigate the nature and impact of shell effects on nuclear level density (NLD) and particle emission probability as a function of temperature in a microscopic theoretical framework of Statistical Model for nuclei ranging from neutron deficient to neutron rich isotopes of Z$=$ 27$-$35. Critical temperatures are traced for neighbouring even, odd, closed shell and mid$-$shell nuclei which respond to excitations differently due to their varying stability and structural effects. Importance of the shell effects and shell correction energy is reflected significantly in NLD variation which slowly diminishes with increasing excitation energy indicating the quenching of shell effects. The enhancement of LD parameter with the deformation and rotation and the fade out of enhancement with increasing excitations has been shown. The weakening of magicity of N$=$28 near the proton drip line has been observed in the inverse level density parameter 'K'($=$ A/a) and $\beta$ variation though it is usually uncommon to see this effect in excited nuclei. Variation of our calculated NLD for odd $^{69}$As and even $^{70}$Ge exhibits structural effects and agrees very well with the variation of experimental values. Our evaluated level density parameter 'a' values are compared with RIPL-2 (Reference Input Parameter Library) data which show good agreement.

Exact Solution to the Chow-Robbins Game for almost all n, using the Catalan Triangle

The payoff in the Chow-Robbins coin-tossing game is the proportion of heads when you stop. Knowing when to stop to maximize expectation was addressed by Chow and Robbins(1965), who proved there exist integers ${k_n}$ such that it is optimal to stop when heads minus tails reaches this. Finding ${k_n}$ exactly was unsolved except for finitely many cases by computer. We show ${k_n} = \left\lceil {\alpha \sqrt n \,\, - 1/2\,\, + \,\,\frac{{\left( { - 2\zeta ( - 1/2)} \right)\sqrt \alpha }}{{\sqrt \pi }}{n^{ - 1/4}}} \right\rceil$ for almost all n, where $\alpha $ is the Shepp-Walker constant.This comes from our estimate ${\beta_n} = \alpha \sqrt n \,\, - 1/2\,\, + \,\,\frac{{\left( { - 2\zeta ( - 1/2)} \right)\sqrt \alpha }}{{\sqrt \pi }}{n^{ - 1/4}} + O\left( {{n^{ - 7/24}}} \right)$ of real numbers defined by Dvoretzky(1967) for a more general Value function which is continuous in its first argument and easier to analyze. An $O({n^{ - 1/4}})$ dependence was conjectured by Christensen and Fischer(2022) from numerical evidence. Our proof uses moments involving Catalan and Catalan triangle numbers which appear in a tree resulting from backward induction, and a generalized backward induction principle. It was motivated by an idea of H\"aggstr\"om and W\"astlund(2013) to use backward induction of upper and lower Value bounds from a horizon, which they used numerically to settle a few cases. Christensen and Fischer, with much better bounds, settled many more cases. We use Skorohod's embedding to get simple upper and lower bounds from the Brownian analog; our upper bound is the one found by Christensen and Fischer in a different way. We use them first for many more examples, but the new idea is to use them algebraically in the tree, with feedback to get a sharper Value estimate near the border, to settle almost all n.

We study single electron transport through a graphene quantum dot with magnetic adsorbates. We focus on the relation between the spin order of the adsorbates and the linear conductance of the device. The electronic structure of the graphene dot with magnetic adsorbates is modeled through numerical diagonalization of a tight-binding model with an exchange potential. We consider several mechanisms by which the adsorbate magnetic state can influence transport in a single electron transistor: by tuning the addition energy, by changing the tunneling rate and, in the case of spin polarized electrodes, through magnetoresistive effects. Whereas the first mechanism is always present, the others require that the electrode has either an energy or spin dependent density of states. We find that graphene dots are optimal systems to detect the spin state of a few magnetic centers.

We apply the lubrication approximation to solve for the flow generated by a peristaltic traveling wave in a finite, planar channel, and examine the effect of channel length. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is hypothesized to be peristaltically transported by arterial pulsations through the perivascular spaces in the brain. Previous studies of peristaltic perivascular models have chosen model lengths ranging from sub-wavelength, which is more physiologically realistic, to full wavelength. Here, we solve for peristaltic flow rates for arbitrary lengths, and find that sub-wavelength channels significantly modulate the mean value, phase, and amplitude of flow rate for sinusoidal and general peristaltic waveforms. The boundary conditions create an internal pressure gradient such that the instantaneous flow rate varies along the length of the channel, and the difference between the ends and the middle of the channel is more pronounced for very short channels. This longitudinal distribution in flow rate is not observed \emph{in vivo} in perivascular spaces at the surface of the brain, and hence sub-wavelength peristaltic models whose boundary conditions are isolated from the larger perivascular network are limited in their ability to reproduce perivascular flows.

The impact of unocculted stellar surface heterogeneities in the form of cool spots and hot faculae on the spectrum of a transiting planet has been a daunting problem for the characterization of exoplanet atmospheres. The wavelength-dependent nature of stellar surface heterogeneities imprinting their signatures on planetary transmission spectra are of concern particularly for systems of sub-Neptunes orbiting M-dwarfs. Here we present a systematic exploration of the impact of this spot-contamination on simulated near infrared transmission spectra of sub-Neptune planets. From our analysis, we find that improper correction of stellar surface heterogeneities on transmission spectra can lead to significant bias when inferring planetary atmospheric properties. However, this bias is negligible for lower fractions of heterogeneities (<1%). Additionally, we find that acquiring a priori knowledge of stellar heterogeneities does not improve precision in constraining planetary parameters if the heterogeneities are appropriately marginalized within a retrieval---however these are conditional on our confidence of stellar atmospheric models being accurate representations of the true photosphere. In sum, to acquire unbiased constraints when characterizing planetary atmospheres with the James Webb Space Telescope, we recommend performing joint retrievals of both the disk-integrated spectrum of the star and the stellar contamination corrected transmission spectrum.

We propose a quantum fitting scheme to estimate the magnetic field gradient with $N$-atom spins preparing in W state, which attains the Heisenberg-scaling accuracy. Our scheme combines the quantum multi-parameter estimation and the least square linear fitting method to achieve the quantum Cram\'{e}r-Rao bound (QCRB). We show that the estimated quantity achieves the Heisenberg-scaling accuracy. In single parameter estimation with assumption that the magnetic field is strictly linear, two optimal measurements can achieve the identical Heisenberg-scaling accuracy. Proper interpretation of the super-Heisenberg-scaling accuracy is presented. The scheme of quantum metrology combined with data fitting provides a new method in fast high precision measurements.

We describe topology of random simplicial complexes in the lower and upper models in the medial regime, i.e. under the assumption that the probability parameters $p_\sigma$ approach neither $0$ nor $1$. We show that nontrivial Betti numbers of typical lower and upper random simplicial complexes in the medial regime lie in a narrow range of dimensions. For instance, an upper random simplicial complex $Y$ on $n$ vertices in the medial regime with high probability has non-vanishing Betti numbers $b_{j}(Y)$ only for $k+c <n-j<k+\log_2 k +c'$ where $k=\log_2 \ln n$ and $c, c' $ are constants. A lower random simplicial complex on $n$ vertices in the medial regime is with high probability $(k+a)$-connected and its dimension $d$ satisfies $d\sim k+\log_2 k+ a'$ where $a, \, a'$ are constants. The paper develops a new technique, based on Alexander duality, which relates the lower and upper models.

Recent theoretical calculations and photoemission spectroscopy measurements on the bulk Bi2Se3 material show that it is a three-dimensional topological insulator possessing conductive surface states with nondegenerate spins, attractive for dissipationless electronics and spintronics applications. Nanoscale topological insulator materials have a large surface-to-volume ratio that can manifest the conductive surface states and are promising candidates for devices. Here we report the synthesis and characterization of high quality single crystalline Bi2Se3 nanomaterials with a variety of morphologies. The synthesis of Bi2Se3 nanowires and nanoribbons employs Au-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism. Nanowires, which exhibit rough surfaces, are formed by stacking nanoplatelets along the axial direction of the wires. Nanoribbons are grown along [11-20] direction with a rectangular cross-section and have diverse morphologies, including quasi-one-dimensional, sheetlike, zigzag and sawtooth shapes. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies on nanoribbons show atomically smooth surfaces with ~ 1 nm step edges, indicating single Se-Bi-Se-Bi-Se quintuple layers. STM measurements reveal a honeycomb atomic lattice, suggesting that the STM tip couples not only to the top Se atomic layer, but also to the Bi atomic layer underneath, which opens up the possibility to investigate the contribution of different atomic orbitals to the topological surface states. Transport measurements of a single nanoribbon device (four terminal resistance and Hall resistance) show great promise for nanoribbons as candidates to study topological surface states.

We prove a Limiting Absorption Principle for Schr{\"o}dinger operators in tubes about infinite curves embedded in the Euclidian space with different types of boundary conditions. The argument is based on the Mourre theory with conjugate operators different from the generator of dilations which is usually used in this case, and permits to prove a Limiting Absorption Principle for Schr{\"o}dinger operators in singular waveguides.

This paper studies the entropy of tree-shifts of finite type with and without boundary conditions. We demonstrate that computing the entropy of a tree-shift of finite type is equivalent to solving a system of nonlinear recurrence equations. Furthermore, the entropy of the binary Markov tree-shifts over two symbols is either $0$ or $\ln 2$. Meanwhile, the realization of a class of reals including multinacci numbers is elaborated, which indicates that tree-shifts are capable of rich phenomena. By considering the influence of three different types of boundary conditions, say, the periodic, Dirichlet, and Neumann boundary conditions, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the coincidence of entropy with and without boundary conditions are addressed.

We introduce the Fastron, a configuration space (C-space) model to be used as a proxy to kinematic-based collision detection. The Fastron allows iterative updates to account for a changing environment through a combination of a novel formulation of the kernel perceptron learning algorithm and an active learning strategy. Our simulations on a 7 degree-of-freedom arm indicate that proxy collision checks may be performed at least 2 times faster than an efficient polyhedral collision checker and at least 8 times faster than an efficient high-precision collision checker. The Fastron model provides conservative collision status predictions by padding C-space obstacles, and proxy collision checking time does not scale poorly as the number of workspace obstacles increases. All results were achieved without GPU acceleration or parallel computing.

A finite-temperature effective free energy of the boundary of a quantized thermal Hall system is derived microscopically from the bulk two-dimensional Dirac fermion coupled with a gravitational field. In two spatial dimensions, the thermal Hall conductivity of fully gapped insulators and superconductors is quantized and given by the bulk Chern number, in analogy to the quantized electric Hall conductivity in quantum Hall systems. From the perspective of effective action functionals, two distinct types of the field theory have been proposed to describe the quantized thermal Hall effect. One of these, known as the gravitational Chern-Simons action, is a kind of topological field theory, and the other is a phenomenological theory relevant to the St\v{r}eda formula. In order to solve this problem, we derive microscopically an effective theory that accounts for the quantized thermal Hall effect. In this paper, the two-dimensional Dirac fermion under a static background gravitational field is considered in equilibrium at a finite temperature, from which an effective boundary free energy functional of the gravitational field is derived. This boundary theory is shown to explain the quantized thermal Hall conductivity and thermal Hall current in the bulk by assuming the Lorentz symmetry. The bulk effective theory is consistently determined via the boundary effective theory

In this paper, we consider the conjugate gradient method for solving the problem of minimizing a quadratic function with additive noise in the gradient. Three concepts of noise were considered: antagonistic noise in the linear term, stochastic noise in the linear term, and noise in the quadratic term, as well as combinations of the first and second with the last. It was experimentally obtained that error accumulation is absent for any of the considered concepts, which differs from the folklore opinion that, as in accelerated methods, error accumulation must take place. The paper gives motivation for why the error may not accumulate. The dependence of the solution error both on the magnitude (scale) of the noise and on the size of the solution using the conjugate gradient method was also experimentally investigated. Hypotheses about the dependence of the error in the solution on the noise scale and the size (2-norm) of the solution are proposed and tested for all the concepts considered. It turned out that the error in the solution (by function) linearly depends on the noise scale. The work contains graphs illustrating each individual study, as well as a detailed description of numerical experiments, which includes an account of the methods of the noise of both the vector and the matrix.

The equilibrium composition of neutron star matter is achieved through weak interactions (direct and inverse beta decays), which proceed on relatively long time scales. If the density of a matter element is perturbed, it will relax to the new chemical equilibrium through non-equilibrium reactions, which produce entropy that is partly released through neutrino emission, while a similar fraction heats the matter and is eventually radiated as thermal photons. We examined two possible mechanisms causing such density perturbations: 1) the reduction in centrifugal force caused by spin-down (particularly in millisecond pulsars), leading to "rotochemical heating", and 2) a hypothetical time-variation of the gravitational constant, as predicted by some theories of gravity and current cosmological models, leading to "gravitochemical heating". If only slow weak interactions are allowed in the neutron star (modified Urca reactions, with or without Cooper pairing), rotochemical heating can account for the observed ultraviolet emission from the closest millisecond pulsar, PSR J0437-4715, which also provides a constraint on |dG/dt| of the same order as the best available in the literature.

On the other hand, the finite number of discrete bound states are associated with the Racah polynomials. We are honored to dedicate this work to Prof. Hashim A.

Due to its semantic succinctness and novelty of expression, poetry is a great test bed for semantic change analysis. However, so far there is a scarcity of large diachronic corpora. Here, we provide a large corpus of German poetry which consists of about 75k poems with more than 11 million tokens, with poems ranging from the 16th to early 20th century. We then track semantic change in this corpus by investigating the rise of tropes (`love is magic') over time and detecting change points of meaning, which we find to occur particularly within the German Romantic period. Additionally, through self-similarity, we reconstruct literary periods and find evidence that the law of linear semantic change also applies to poetry.

We present an analysis of the Evershed effect observed with a resolution of 0.2 arcsec. Using the new Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope and its Littrow spectrograph, we scan a significant part of a sunspot penumbra. Spectra of the non-magnetic line Fe I 7090.4 A allows us to measure Doppler shifts without magnetic contamination. The observed line profiles are asymmetric. The Doppler shift depends on the part of the line used for measuring, indicating that the velocity structure of penumbrae remains unresolved even with our angular resolution. The observed line profiles are properly reproduced if two components with velocities between zero and several km/s co-exist in the resolution elements. Using Doppler shifts at fixed line depths, we find a local correlation between upflows and bright structures, and downflows and dark structures. This association is not specific of the outer penumbra but it also occurs in the inner penumbra. The existence of such correlation was originally reported by Beckers & Schroter (1969), and it is suggestive of energy transport by convection in penumbrae.

The galaxy Luminosity Function (LF) has been estimated in the rest frame B luminosity at 0<z<1.25 and at 1700 {\AA} for 2.5<z<4.5 from deep multicolor surveys in the HDF-N, HDF-S, NTT-DF. The results have been compared with a recent version of galaxy formation models in the framework of hierarchical clustering in a flat Cold Dark Matter Universe with cosmological constant. The results show a general agreement for z<= 1, although the model LF has a steeper average slope at the faint end; at z~3 such feature results in an overprediction of the number of faint (I_{AB}~ 27) galaxies, while the agreement at the bright end becomes critically sensitive to the details of dust absorption at such redshifts. The discrepancies at the faint end show that a refined treatement of the physical processes involving smaller galaxies is to be pursued in the models, in terms of aggregation processes and/or stellar feedback heavily affecting the luminosity of the low luminosity objects. The implications of our results on the evolution of the cosmological star formation rate are discussed.

We describe a new formulation of the functional renormalization group (RG) for interacting fermions within a Wilsonian momentum-shell approach. We show that the Luttinger-Ward functional is a fixed point of the RG, and derive the infinite hierarchy of flow equations satisfied by the two-particle-irreducible (2PI) vertices. In the one-loop approximation, this hierarchy reduces to two equations that determine the self-energy and the 2PI two-particle vertex $\Phi^{(2)}$. Susceptibilities are calculated from the Bethe-Salpeter equation that relates them to $\Phi^{(2)}$. While the one-loop approximation breaks down at low energy in one-dimensional systems (for reasons that we discuss), it reproduces the exact results both in the normal and ordered phases in single-channel (i.e. mean-field) theories, as shown on the example of BCS theory. The possibility to continue the RG flow into broken-symmetry phases is an essential feature of the 2PI RG scheme and is due to the fact that the 2PI two-particle vertex, contrary to its 1PI counterpart, is not singular at a phase transition. Moreover, the normal phase RG equations can be directly used to derive the Ginzburg-Landau expansion of the thermodynamic potential near a phase transition. We discuss the implementation of the 2PI RG scheme to interacting fermion systems beyond the examples (one-dimensional systems and BCS superconductors) considered in this paper.

Photonic RF transversal signal processors, which are equivalent to reconfigurable electrical digital signal processors but implemented with photonic technologies, have been widely used for modern high-speed information processing. With the capability of generating large numbers of wavelength channels with compact micro-resonators, optical microcombs bring new opportunities for realizing photonic RF transversal signal processors that have greatly reduced size, power consumption, and complexity. Recently, a variety of signal processing functions have been demonstrated using microcomb-based photonic RF transversal signal processors. Here, we provide detailed analysis for quantifying the processing accuracy of microcomb-based photonic RF transversal signal processors. First, we investigate the theoretical limitations of the processing accuracy determined by tap number, signal bandwidth, and pulse waveform. Next, we discuss the practical error sources from different components of the signal processors. Finally, we analyze the contributions of the theoretical limitations and the experimental factors to the overall processing inaccuracy both theoretically and experimentally. These results provide a useful guide for designing microcomb-based photonic RF transversal signal processors to optimize their accuracy.

Dynamics of large-scale network processes underlies crucial phenomena ranging across all sciences. Forward simulation of large network models is often computationally prohibitive. Yet, most networks have intrinsic community structure. We exploit these communities and propose a fast simulation algorithm for network dynamics. In particular, aggregating the inputs a node receives constitutes the limiting factor in numerically simulating large-scale network dynamics. We develop community integration algorithms (CIAs) significantly reducing function-evaluations. We obtain a substantial reduction from polynomial to linear computational complexity. We illustrate our results in multiple applications including classical and higher-order Kuramoto-type systems for synchronisation and Cucker--Smale systems exhibiting flocking behaviour on synthetic as well as real-world networks. Numerical comparison and theoretical analysis confirm the robustness and efficiency of CIAs.

The Houghton groups $H_1, H_2, \ldots$ are a family of infinite groups. In 1975 Wiegold showed that $H_3$ was invariably generated (IG) but $H_1\le H_3$ was not. A natural question is then whether the groups $H_2, H_3, \ldots$ are all IG. Wiegold also ends by saying that, in the examples he had found of an IG group with a subgroup that is not IG, the subgroup was never of finite index. Another natural question is then whether there is a subgroup of finite index in $H_3$ that is not IG. In this note we prove, for each $n\in \{2, 3, \ldots\}$, that $H_n$ and all of its finite index subgroups are IG. The independent work of Minasyan and Goffer-Lazarovich in June 2020 frames this note quite nicely: they showed that an IG group can have a finite index subgroup that is not IG.

Recently, sufficient conditions of stability or instability for time-delay systems have been proven to be necessary. In this way, a remarkable necessary and sufficient condition has then been developed by Gomez et al. It is presented as a simple test of positive definiteness of a matrix issued from the Lyapunov matrix. In this paper, an extension of this result is presented. Without going into details, the uniform discretization of the state has been replaced by projections on the first Legendre polynomials. Like Gomez et al., based on convergence arguments, the necessity is obtained in finite order, which can be calculated analytically. Compared to them, by relying on the fast convergence rate of Legendre approximation, the required order to ensure stability has been reduced. Thanks to this major modification, as shown in the example section, it is possible the find stable regions for low orders and unstable ones for even smaller orders.

Univalence, originally a type theoretical notion at the heart of Voevodsky's Univalent Foundations Program, has found general importance as a higher categorical property that characterizes descent and hence classifying maps in $(\infty,1)$-categories. Completeness is a property of Segal spaces introduced by Rezk that characterizes those Segal spaces which are $(\infty,1)$-categories. In this paper, first, we make rigorous an analogy between univalence and completeness that has found various informal expressions in the higher categorical research community to date, and second, study its ramifications. The core aspect of this analogy can be understood as a translation between internal and external notions, motivated by model categorical considerations of Joyal and Tierney. As a result, we characterize the internal notion of univalence in logical model categories by the external notion of completeness defined as the right Quillen condition of suitably indexed Set-weighted limit functors. Furthermore, we extend the analogy and show that univalent completion in the sense of van den Berg and Moerdijk translates to Rezk-completion of associated Segal objects as well. Motivated by these correspondences, we exhibit univalence as a homotopical locality condition whenever univalent completion exists.

This paper presents an Expert Decision Support System for the identification of time-invariant, aeroacoustic source types. The system comprises two steps: first, acoustic properties are calculated based on spectral and spatial information. Second, clustering is performed based on these properties. The clustering aims at helping and guiding an expert for quick identification of different source types, providing an understanding of how sources differ. This supports the expert in determining similar or atypical behavior. A variety of features are proposed for capturing the characteristics of the sources. These features represent aeroacoustic properties that can be interpreted by both the machine and by experts. The features are independent of the absolute Mach number which enables the proposed method to cluster data measured at different flow configurations. The method is evaluated on deconvolved beamforming data from two scaled airframe half-model measurements. For this exemplary data, the proposed support system method results in clusters that mostly correspond to the source types identified by the authors. The clustering also provides the mean feature values and the cluster hierarchy for each cluster and for each cluster member a clustering confidence. This additional information makes the results transparent and allows the expert to understand the clustering choices.

On Fatou sets containing Baker omitted value

An omitted value of a transcendental meromorphic function $f$ is called a Baker omitted value, in short \textit{bov} if there is a disk $D$ centered at the bov such that each component of the boundary of $f^{-1}(D)$ is bounded. Assuming that the bov is in the Fatou set of $f$, this article investigates the dynamics of the function. Firstly, the connectivity of all the Fatou components are determined. If $U$ is the Fatou component containing the bov then it is proved that a Fatou component $U'$ is infinitely connected if and only if it lands on $U$, i.e. $f^{k}(U') \subset U$ for some $k \geq 1$. Every other Fatou component is either simply connected or lands on a Herman ring. Further, assuming that the number of critical points in the Fatou set whose forward orbits do not intersect $U$ is finite, we have shown that the connectivity of each Fatou component belongs to a finite set. This set is independent of the Fatou components. It is proved that the Fatou component containing the bov is completely invariant whenever it is forward invariant. Further, if the invariant Fatou component is an attracting domain and compactly contains all the critical values of the function then the Julia set is totally disconnected. Baker domains are shown to be non-existent whenever the bov is in the Fatou set. It is also proved that, if there is a $2$-periodic Baker domain (these are not ruled out when the bov is in the Julia set), or a $2$-periodic attracting or parabolic domain containing the bov then the function has no Herman ring. Some examples exhibiting different possibilities for the Fatou set are discussed. This includes the first example of a meromorphic function with an omitted value which has two infinitely connected Fatou components.

In this article we report a novel analytic solution for a cosmological model with a matter content described by a one component dissipative fluid, in the framework of the causal Israel-Stewart theory. Some physically well motivated analytical relations for the bulk viscous coefficient, the relaxation time and a bariotropic equation of state are postulated. We study within the parameter space, which label the solution, a suited region compatible with an accelerated expansion of the universe for late times, as well as stability properties of the solution at the critical parameter values $ \gamma = 1$ and for $ s = 1/2 $. We study as well the consequences that arise from the positiveness of the entropy production along the time evolution. In general, the accelerated expansion at late times is only possible when $\epsilon\geq 1/18$, which implies a very large non-adiabatic contribution the speed of sound.

Metric learning is the process of learning a tailored distance metric for a particular task. This advanced subfield of machine learning is useful to any machine learning or data mining task that relies on the computation of distances or similarities over objects. In recently years, machine learning techniques have been extensively used in aviation and aerospace engineering to make predictions, extract patterns, discover knowledge, etc. Nevertheless, metric learning, an element that can advance the performance of complex machine learning tasks, has so far been hardly utilized in relevant literature. In this study, we apply classic metric learning formulations with novel components on aviation environmental impact modeling. Through a weakly-supervised metric learning task, we achieve significant improvement in the newly emerged problem of aircraft characterization and segmentation for environmental impacts. The result will enable the more efficient and accurate modeling of aircraft environmental impacts, a focal topic in sustainable aviation. This work is also a demonstration that shows the potential and value of metric learning in a wide variety of similar studies in the transportation domain.

We prove that the Cauchy problem for the Dirac-Klein-Gordon system of equations in 1D is globally well-posed in a range of Sobolev spaces of negative index for the Dirac spinor and positive index for the scalar field. The main ingredient in the proof is the theory of almost conservation law and I-method introduced by Colliander, Keel, Staffilani, Takaoka and Tao. Our proof also relies on the null structure in the system, and bilinear spacetime estimates of Klainerman-Machedon type.

The halo mass function and filaments in full cosmological simulations with fuzzy dark matter

Fuzzy dark matter (FDM) is a dark matter candidate consisting of ultra-light scalar particles with masses around $10^{-22} \mathrm{eV}/c^2$, a regime where cold bosonic matter behaves as a collective wave rather than individual particles. It has increasingly attracted attention due to its rich phenomenology on astrophysical scales, with implications for the small-scale tensions present within the standard cosmological model, $\Lambda$CDM. Although constraints on FDM are accumulating in many different contexts, very few have been verified by self-consistent numerical simulations. We present new large numerical simulations of cosmic structure formation with FDM, solving the full Schr\"odinger-Poisson (SP) equations using the AxiREPO code, which implements a pseudo-spectral numerical method. Combined with our previous simulations, they allow us to draw a four-way comparison of matter clustering, contrasting results (such as power spectra) for each combination of initial conditions (FDM vs. CDM) and dynamics (SP vs. $N$-body). By disentangling the impact of initial conditions and non-linear dynamics, we can gauge the validity of approximate methods used in previous works, such as ordinary $N$-body simulations with an FDM initial power spectrum. Due to the comparatively large volume achieved in our FDM simulations, we are able to measure the FDM halo mass function from full wave simulations for the first time, and compare to previous results obtained using analytic or approximate approaches. We find that, due to the cut-off of small-scale power in the FDM power spectrum, haloes are linked via continuous, smooth, and dense filaments throughout the entire simulation volume (unlike for the standard $\Lambda$CDM power spectrum), posing significant challenges for reliably identifying haloes. We also investigate the density profiles of these filaments and compare to their CDM counterparts.

We calculate nucleon-nucleon scattering at low energies and large impact parameter in the Skyrme model within the framework for soliton scattering proposed by Manton. This corresponds to a truncation of the degrees of freedom to the twelve collective coordinates which essentially describe the rigid body motion of the pair of Skyrmions. We take to its logical conclusion the result that the induced kinetic energy for these collective coordinates in the product ansatz behaves as one over the separation and hence can dominate over the potential. This behaviour implies to leading order that we can drop the potential and the resulting motion reduces simply to geodesic motion on the manifold parametrized by the variables of the product ansatz. We formulate the semi-classical quantization of these variables to obtain the motion corresponding to the nucleonic states of the Skyrme model. This is the appropriate description for the nucleons in order to consider their scattering within Manton's framework in the semi-classical approximation. We investigate the implications for the scattering of nucleons with various initial polarizations using the approximation method of ``variation of constants''.

Many services today massively and continuously produce log files of different and varying formats. These logs are important since they contain information about the application activities, which is necessary for improvements by analyzing the behavior and maintaining the security and stability of the system. It is a common practice to store log files in a compressed form to reduce the sheer size of these files. A compression algorithm identifies frequent patterns in a log file to remove redundant information. This work presents an approach to detect frequent patterns in textual data that can be simultaneously registered during the file compression process with low consumption of resources. The log file can be visualized with the possibility to explore the extracted patterns using metrics based on such properties as frequency, length and root prefixes of the acquired pattern. This allows an analyst to gain the relevant insights more efficiently reducing the need for manual labor-intensive inspection in the log data. The extension of the implemented dictionary-based compression algorithm has the advantage of recognizing patterns in log files of any format and eliminates the need to manually perform preparation for any preprocessing of log files.

We study the optical properties of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers under the influence of strong out-of-plane magnetic fields, using the effective massive Dirac model. We pay attention to the role of spin-orbit coupling effects, doping level and electron-electron interactions, treated at the Hartree-Fock level. We find that optically-induced valley and spin imbalance, commonly attained with circularly polarized light, can also be obtained with linearly polarized light in the doped regime. Additionally, we explore an exchange-driven mechanism to enhance the spin-orbit splitting of the conduction band, in n-doped systems, controlling both the carrier density and the intensity of the applied magnetic field.

Structured Query Language (SQL) remains the standard language used in Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMSs) and has found applications in healthcare (patient registries), businesses (inventories, trend analysis), military, education, etc. Although SQL statements are English-like, the process of writing SQL queries is often problematic for nontechnical end-users in the industry. Similarly, formulating and comprehending written queries can be confusing, especially for undergraduate students. One of the pivotal reasons given for these difficulties lies with the simple syntax of SQL, which is often misleading and hard to understand. An ideal solution is to present these two audiences: undergraduate students and nontechnical end-users with learning and practice tools. These tools are mostly electronic and can be used to aid their understanding, as well as enable them to write correct SQL queries. This work proposes a new approach aimed at understanding and writing correct SQL queries using principles from Formal Language and Automata Theory. We present algorithms based on: regular expressions for the recognition of simple query constructs, context-free grammars for the recognition of nested queries, and a jumping finite automaton for the synthesis of SQL queries from natural language descriptions. As proof of concept, these algorithms were further implemented into interactive software tools aimed at improving SQL comprehension. Evaluation of these tools showed that the majority of participants agreed that the tools were intuitive and aided their understanding of SQL queries. These tools should, therefore, find applications in aiding SQL comprehension at higher learning institutions and assist in the writing of correct queries in data-centered industries.

In a recent Letter, Gopalakrishnan, Martin, and Demler [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111 (2013) 185304] show that quasi-two-dimensional dipolar Bose gases, subject to a Rashba spin-orbit coupling, exhibit a variety of spatially ordered, or crystalline, ground states, including a pentagonal quasicrystal. Indeed, as the authors say, realizing quasicrystalline condensates would provide new ways to explore the physics of quasicrystals, and in particular to study the quantum dynamics of their unique collective phason modes. Yet, the authors conclude that "there are typically additional phasons in quantum-mechanical quasicrystals, when compared with their classical equivalents." In this Comment I review the notion of phason modes in quasicrystals, and explain why their number does not depend on whether they are classical or quantum.

A Data Efficient and Feasible Level Set Method for Stochastic Convex Optimization with Expectation Constraints

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Stochastic convex optimization problems with expectation constraints (SOECs) are encountered in statistics and machine learning, business, and engineering. In data-rich environments, the SOEC objective and constraints contain expectations defined with respect to large datasets. Therefore, efficient algorithms for solving such SOECs need to limit the fraction of data points that they use, which we refer to as algorithmic data complexity. Recent stochastic first order methods exhibit low data complexity when handling SOECs but guarantee near-feasibility and near-optimality only at convergence. These methods may thus return highly infeasible solutions when heuristically terminated, as is often the case, due to theoretical convergence criteria being highly conservative. This issue limits the use of first order methods in several applications where the SOEC constraints encode implementation requirements. We design a stochastic feasible level set method (SFLS) for SOECs that has low data complexity and emphasizes feasibility before convergence. Specifically, our level-set method solves a root-finding problem by calling a novel first order oracle that computes a stochastic upper bound on the level-set function by extending mirror descent and online validation techniques. We establish that SFLS maintains a high-probability feasible solution at each root-finding iteration and exhibits favorable iteration complexity compared to state-of-the-art deterministic feasible level set and stochastic subgradient methods. Numerical experiments on three diverse applications validate the low data complexity of SFLS relative to the former approach and highlight how SFLS finds feasible solutions with small optimality gaps significantly faster than the latter method.

4D Multi-atlas Label Fusion using Longitudinal Images

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Longitudinal reproducibility is an essential concern in automated medical image segmentation, yet has proven to be an elusive objective as manual brain structure tracings have shown more than 10% variability. To improve reproducibility, lon-gitudinal segmentation (4D) approaches have been investigated to reconcile tem-poral variations with traditional 3D approaches. In the past decade, multi-atlas la-bel fusion has become a state-of-the-art segmentation technique for 3D image and many efforts have been made to adapt it to a 4D longitudinal fashion. However, the previous methods were either limited by using application specified energy function (e.g., surface fusion and multi model fusion) or only considered tem-poral smoothness on two consecutive time points (t and t+1) under sparsity as-sumption. Therefore, a 4D multi-atlas label fusion theory for general label fusion purpose and simultaneously considering temporal consistency on all time points is appealing. Herein, we propose a novel longitudinal label fusion algorithm, called 4D joint label fusion (4DJLF), to incorporate the temporal consistency modeling via non-local patch-intensity covariance models. The advantages of 4DJLF include: (1) 4DJLF is under the general label fusion framework by simul-taneously incorporating the spatial and temporal covariance on all longitudinal time points. (2) The proposed algorithm is a longitudinal generalization of a lead-ing joint label fusion method (JLF) that has proven adaptable to a wide variety of applications. (3) The spatial temporal consistency of atlases is modeled in a prob-abilistic model inspired from both voting based and statistical fusion. The pro-posed approach improves the consistency of the longitudinal segmentation while retaining sensitivity compared with original JLF approach using the same set of atlases. The method is available online in open-source.

Always Best Packet Switching (ABPS) is a novel approach for wireless communications that enables mobile nodes, equipped with multiple network interface cards (NICs), to dynamically determine the most appropriate NIC to use. Using ABPS, a mobile node can seamlessly switch to a different NIC in order to get better performance, without causing communication interruptions at the application level. To make this possible, NICs are kept always active and a software monitor constantly probes the channels for available access points. While this ensures maximum connection availability, considerable energy may be wasted when no access points are available for a given NIC. In this paper we address this issue by investigating the use of an "oracle" able to provide information on network availability. This allows to dynamically switch on/off NICs based on reported availability, thus reducing the power consumption. We present a Markov model which allows us to estimate the impact of the oracle on the ABPS mechanism: results show that significant reduction in energy consumption can be achieved with minimal impact on connection availability. We conclude by describing a prototype implementation of the oracle based on Web services and geolocalization.

As a particular application of our techniques, we prove uniform bounds for oscillatory Carleson operators near a single scale version of the quadratic Carleson operator.

The content ranking problem in a social news website, is typically a function that maximizes a scalar metric of interest like dwell-time. However, like in most real-world applications we are interested in more than one metric---for instance simultaneously maximizing click-through rate, monetization metrics, dwell-time---and also satisfy the traffic requirements promised to different publishers. All this needs to be done on online data and under the settings where the objective function and the constraints can dynamically change; this could happen if for instance new publishers are added, some contracts are adjusted, or if some contracts are over. In this paper, we formulate this problem as a constrained, dynamic, multi-objective optimization problem. We propose a novel framework that extends a successful genetic optimization algorithm, NSGA-II, to solve this online, data-driven problem. We design the modules of NSGA-II to suit our problem. We evaluate optimization performance using Hypervolume and introduce a confidence interval metric for assessing the practicality of a solution. We demonstrate the application of this framework on a real-world Article Ranking problem. We observe that we make considerable improvements in both time and performance over a brute-force baseline technique that is currently in production.

We constructed a frequently updated, near-real-time global power generation dataset: Carbon Monitor-Power since January, 2016 at national levels with near-global coverage and hourly-to-daily time resolution. The data presented here are collected from 37 countries across all continents for eight source groups, including three types of fossil sources (coal, gas, and oil), nuclear energy and four groups of renewable energy sources (solar energy, wind energy, hydro energy and other renewables including biomass, geothermal, etc.). The global near-real-time power dataset shows the dynamics of the global power system, including its hourly, daily, weekly and seasonal patterns as influenced by daily periodical activities, weekends, seasonal cycles, regular and irregular events (i.e., holidays) and extreme events (i.e., the COVID-19 pandemic). The Carbon Monitor-Power dataset reveals that the COVID-19 pandemic caused strong disruptions in some countries (i.e., China and India), leading to a temporary or long-lasting shift to low carbon intensity, while it had only little impact in some other countries (i.e., Australia). This dataset offers a large range of opportunities for power-related scientific research and policy-making.

The capability of mobile devices to use multiple interfaces to support a single session is becoming more prevalent. Prime examples include the desire to implement WiFi offloading and the introduction of 5G. Furthermore, an increasing fraction of Internet traffic is becoming delay sensitive. These two trends drive the need to investigate methods that enable communication over multiple parallel heterogeneous networks, while also ensuring that delay constraints are met. This paper approaches these challenges using a multi-path streaming code that uses forward error correction to reduce the in-order delivery delay of packets in networks with poor link quality and transient connectivity. A simple analysis is developed that provides a good approximation of the in-order delivery delay. Furthermore, numerical results help show that the delay penalty of communicating over multiple paths is insignificant when considering the potential throughput gains obtained through the fusion of multiple networks.

We investigate the coronal imaging capabilities of the Solar UltraViolet Imager (SUVI) on the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-R series spacecraft. Nominally Sun-pointed, SUVI provides solar images in six Extreme UltraViolet (EUV) wavelengths. On-orbit data indicated that SUVI had sufficient dynamic range and sensitivity to image the corona to the largest heights above the Sun to date while simultaneously imaging the Sun. We undertook a campaign to investigate the existence of the EUV signal well beyond the nominal Sun-centered imaging area of the solar EUV imagers. We off-pointed SUVI line-of-sight by almost one imaging area around the Sun. We present the details of the campaign conducted when the solar cycle is at near the minimum and some results that affirm the EUV presence to beyond three solar radii.

We use loop induced processes like meson oscillations and rare b hadron decays to determine the absolute values of the CKM matrix elements $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$ and compare our results to the standard determinations based on inclusive and exclusive semileptonic tree-level decays of B mesons. For many years there have been tensions between the inclusive and exclusive determinations. Assuming the absence of new physics, we find that meson oscillation data shows a slight preference for the inclusive value of $|V_{cb}|$ and the exclusive value for $|V_{ub}|$. Rare b decay data prefers values for $|V_{cb}|$ far below the inclusive and exclusive determinations, offering a new perspective on some of the persistent rare b decay anomalies.

The speed, bandwidth and cost characteristics of today's PC graphics cards make them an attractive target as general purpose computational platforms. High performance can be achieved also for lattice simulations but the actual implementation can be cumbersome. This paper outlines the architecture and programming model of modern graphics cards for the lattice practitioner with the goal of exploiting these chips for Monte Carlo simulations. Sample code is also given.

A deep (R ~ 19.5) photographic Halpha Survey of the southern Galactic Plane was recently completed using the UK Schmidt Telescope at the AAO. In addition, we have recently started a similar, CCD-based survey of the northern Galactic Plane using the Wide Field Camera on the INT. Both surveys aim to provide information on many types of emission line objects, such as planetary nebulae, luminous blue variables and interacting binaries. Here, we focus specifically on the ability of Halpha emission line surveys to discover cataclysmic variables (CVs). Follow-up observations have already begun, and we present initial spectra of a candidate CV discovered by these surveys. We also present results from analyzing the properties of known CVs in the Southern Survey. By calculating the recovery rate of these objects, we estimate the efficiency of Halpha-based searches in finding CVs.

Deep learning has been widely used to analyze digitized hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained histopathology whole slide images. Automated cancer segmentation using deep learning can be used to diagnose malignancy and to find novel morphological patterns to predict molecular subtypes. To train pixel-wise cancer segmentation models, manual annotation from pathologists is generally a bottleneck due to its time-consuming nature. In this paper, we propose Deep Interactive Learning with a pretrained segmentation model from a different cancer type to reduce manual annotation time. Instead of annotating all pixels from cancer and non-cancer regions on giga-pixel whole slide images, an iterative process of annotating mislabeled regions from a segmentation model and training/finetuning the model with the additional annotation can reduce the time. Especially, employing a pretrained segmentation model can further reduce the time than starting annotation from scratch. We trained an accurate ovarian cancer segmentation model with a pretrained breast segmentation model by 3.5 hours of manual annotation which achieved intersection-over-union of 0.74, recall of 0.86, and precision of 0.84. With automatically extracted high-grade serous ovarian cancer patches, we attempted to train another deep learning model to predict BRCA mutation. The segmentation model and code have been released at https://github.com/MSKCC-Computational-Pathology/DMMN-ovary.

High precision cross-section data of the deuteron-proton breakup reaction at 130 MeV deuteron energy are compared with the theoretical predictions obtained with a coupled-channel extension of the CD Bonn potential with virtual Delta-isobar excitation, without and with inclusion of the long-range Coulomb force. The Coulomb effect is studied on the basis of the cross-section data set, extended in this work to about 1500 data points by including breakup geometries characterized by small polar angles of the two protons. The experimental data clearly prefer predictions obtained with the Coulomb interaction included. The strongest effects are observed in regions in which the relative energy of the two protons is the smallest.

Coherent states for a general Lie superalgebra are defined following the method originally proposed by Perelomov. Algebraic and geometrical properties of the systems of states thus obtained are examined, with particular attention to the possibility of defining a K\"ahler structure over the states supermanifold and to the connection between this supermanifold and the coadjoint orbits of the dynamical supergroup. The theory is then applied to some compact forms of contragradient Lie superalgebras.

Diodes used in most high power devices are inherently open. It is shown that under such circumstances, there is a loss of electromagnetic radiation leading to a lower critical current as compared to closed diodes. The power loss can be incorporated in the standard Child-Langmuir framework by introducing an effective potential. The modified Child-Langmuir law can be used to predict the maximum power loss for a given plate separation and potential difference as well as the maximum transmitted current for this power loss. The effectiveness of the theory is tested numerically.

Few-body systems with large scattering length a have universal properties that do not depend on the details of their interactions at short distances. The rate constant for three-body recombination of bosonic atoms of mass m into a shallow dimer scales as \hbar a^4/m times a log-periodic function of the scattering length. We calculate the leading and subleading corrections to the rate constant which are due to the effective range of the atoms and study the correlation between the rate constant and the atom-dimer scattering length. Our results are applied to 4He atoms as a test case.

The microscopic mechanism of itinerant ferromagnetism is a long-standing problem due to the lack of non-perturbative methods to handle strong magnetic fluctuations of itinerant electrons. We have non-pertubatively studied thermodynamic properties and magnetic phase transitions of a two-dimensional multi-orbital Hubbard model exhibiting ferromagnetic ground states. Quantum Monte-Carlo simulations are employed, which are proved in a wide density region free of the sign problem usually suffered by simulations for fermions. Both Hund's coupling and electron itinerancy are essential for establishing the ferromagnetic coherence. No local magnetic moments exist in the system as a priori, nevertheless, the spin channel remains incoherent showing the Curie-Weiss type spin magnetic susceptibility down to very low temperatures at which the charge channel is already coherent exhibiting a weakly temperature-dependent compressibility. For the SU(2) invariant systems, the spin susceptibility further grows exponentially as approaching zero temperature in two dimensions. In the paramagnetic phase close to the Curie temperature, the momentum space Fermi distributions exhibit strong resemblance to those in the fully polarized state. The long-range ferromagnetic ordering appears when the symmetry is reduced to the Ising class, and the Curie temperature is accurately determined. These simulations provide helpful guidance to searching for novel ferromagnetic materials in both strongly correlated $d$-orbital transition metal oxide layers and the $p$-orbital ultra-cold atom optical lattice systems.

Brittle fractures of inhomogeneous materials like rocks, concrete, or ceramics are of two types: Nominally brittle and driven by the propagation of a single dominant crack or quasi-brittle and resulting from the accumulation of many microcracks. The latter goes along with acoustic noise, whose analysis has revealed that events form aftershock sequences obeying characteristic laws reminiscent of those in seismology. Yet, their origin lacks explanation. Here we show that such a statistical organization is not only specific to the multi-cracking situations of quasi-brittle failure and seismology, but also rules the acoustic events produced by a propagating crack. This simpler situation has permitted us to relate these laws to the overall scale-free distribution of inter-event time and energy and to uncover their selection by the crack speed. These results provide a comprehensive picture of how acoustic events are organized upon material failure in the most fundamental of fracture states: single propagating cracks.

We study properties of a periodically driven system coupled to a thermal bath. As a nontrivial example, we consider periodically driven metallic system coupled to a superconducting bath. The effect of the superconductor on the driven system is two-fold: it (a) modifies density of states in the metal via the proximity effect and (b) acts as a thermal bath for light-excited quasi-particles. Using Keldysh formalism, we calculate, nonpertubatively in the system-bath coupling, the steady-state properties of the system and obtain non-equilibrium distribution function. The latter allows one to calculate observable quantities which can be spectroscopically measured in tunneling experiments.

We introduce and study a model of a logarithmic gas with inverse temperature $\beta$ on an arbitrary smooth closed contour in the plane. This model generalizes Dyson's gas (the $\beta$-ensemble) on the unit circle. We compute the non-vanishing terms of the large $N$ expansion of the free energy ($N$ is the number of particles) by iterating the "loop equation" that is the Ward identity with respect to reparametrizations and dilatation of the contour. We show that the main contribution to the free energy is expressed through the spectral determinant of the Neumann jump operator associated with the contour, or equivalently through the Fredholm determinant of the Neumann-Poincare (double layer) operator. This result connects the statistical mechanics of the Dyson gas to the spectral geometry of the interior and exterior domains of the supporting contour.

We analyse the clustering of cosmic voids using a numerical simulation and the main galaxy sample from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We take into account the classification of voids into two types that resemble different evolutionary modes: those with a rising integrated density profile (void-in-void mode, or R-type) and voids with shells (void-in-cloud mode, or S-type). The results show that voids of the same type have stronger clustering than the full sample. We use the correlation analysis to define void clumps, associations with at least two voids separated by a distance of at most the mean void separation. In order to study the spatial configuration of void clumps, we compute the minimal spanning tree and analyse their multiplicity, maximum length and elongation parameter. We further study the dynamics of the smaller sphere that encloses all the voids in each clump. Although the global densities of void clumps are different according to their member-void types, the bulk motions of these spheres are remarkably lower than those of randomly placed spheres with the same radii distribution. In addition, the coherence of pairwise void motions does not strongly depend on whether voids belong to the same clump. Void clumps are useful to analyse the large-scale flows around voids, since voids embedded in large underdense regions are mostly in the void-in-void regime, were the expansion of the larger region produces the separation of voids. Similarly, voids around overdense regions form clumps that are in collapse, as reflected in the relative velocities of voids that are mostly approaching.

Context. Low mass stars are currently the best targets for searches for rocky planets in the habitable zone of their host star. Over the last 13 years, precise radial velocities measured with the HARPS spectrograph have identified over a dozen super-Earths and Earth-mass planets (msin i<10Mearth ) around M dwarfs, with a well understood selection function. This well defined sample informs on their frequency of occurrence and on the distribution of their orbital parameters, and therefore already constrains our understanding of planetary formation. The subset of these low-mass planets that were found within the habitable zone of their host star also provide prized targets for future atmospheric biomarkers searches. Aims. We are working to extend this planetary sample to lower masses and longer periods through dense and long-term monitoring of the radial velocity of a small M dwarf sample. Methods. We obtained large numbers of HARPS spectra for the M dwarfs GJ 3138, GJ 3323, GJ 273, GJ 628 and GJ 3293, from which we derived radial velocities (RVs) and spectroscopic activity indicators. We searched them for variabilities, periodicities, Keplerian modulations and correlations, and attribute the radial-velocity variations to combinations of planetary companions and stellar activity. Results. We detect 12 planets, of which 9 are new with masses ranging from 1.17 to 10.5 Mearth . Those planets have relatively short orbital periods (P<40 d), except two of them with periods of 217.6 and 257.8 days. Among these systems, GJ 273 harbor two planets with masses close to the one of the Earth. With a distance of 3.8 parsec only, GJ 273 is the second nearest known planetary system - after Proxima Centauri - with a planet orbiting the circumstellar habitable zone.

We give a classification of Gorenstein Fano bi-equivariant compactifications of semisimple complex Lie groups with rank two, and determine which of them are equivariant K-stable and admit (singular) K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics. As a consequence, we obtain several explicit examples of K-stable Fano varieties admitting (singular) K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics. We also compute the greatest Ricci lower bounds, equivalently the delta invariants for K-unstable varieties. This gives us three new examples on which each solution of the K\"{a}hler-Ricci flow is of type II.

Pd-metal graphite (Pd-MG) has a layered structure, where each Pd sheet is sandwiched between adjacent graphene sheets. DC magnetization and AC magnetic susceptibility of Pd-MG have been measured using a SQUID magnetometer. Pd-MG undergoes a superconducting transition at $T_{c}$ ($= 3.63 \pm 0.04$ K). The superconductivity occurs in Pd sheets. The relaxation of $M_{ZFC}$ (aging), which is common to spin glass systems, is also observed below $T_{c}$. The relaxation rate $S(t)$ shows a peak at a characteristic time $t_{cr}$, which is longer than a wait time $t_{w}$. The irreversibility between $\chi_{ZFC}$ and $\chi_{FC}$ occurs well above $T_{c}$. The susceptibility $\chi_{FC}$ obeys a Curie-Weiss behavior with a negative Curie-Weiss temperature ($-13.1 \leq \Theta \leq -5.4$ K). The growth of antiferromagnetic order is limited by the disordered nature of nanographites, forming spin glass-like behavior at low temperatures in graphene sheets.

We calculate the nonequilibrium dynamic evolution of a one-dimensional system of two-component fermionic atoms after a strong local quench by using a time-dependent spin-density-functional theory. The interaction quench is also considered to see its influence on the spin-charge separation. It is shown that the charge velocity is larger than the spin velocity for the system of on-site repulsive interaction (Luttinger liquid), and vise versa for the system of on-site attractive interaction (Luther-Emery liquid). We find that both the interaction quench and polarization suppress the spin-charge separation.

Following an idea of Tyurin, we show that in some cases, those vector bundles which come from X form a Lagrangian subvariety of M . We illustrate this with a number of concrete examples.

This paper shows how to manage null entries in pairwise comparisons matrices. Although assessments can be imprecise, since subjective criteria are involved, the classical pairwise comparisons theory expects all of them to be available. In practice, some experts may not be able (or available) to provide all assessments. Therefore managing null entries is a necessary extension of the pairwise comparisons method. It is shown that certain null entries can be recovered on the basis of the transitivity property which each pairwise comparisons matrix is expected to satisfy.

We introduce a new set of models and adaptive psychometric testing methods for multidimensional psychophysics. In contrast to traditional adaptive staircase methods like PEST and QUEST, the method is multi-dimensional and does not require a grid over contextual dimensions, retaining sub-exponential scaling in the number of stimulus dimensions. In contrast to more recent multi-dimensional adaptive methods, our underlying model does not require a parametric assumption about the interaction between intensity and the additional dimensions. In addition, we introduce a new active sampling policy that explicitly targets psychometric detection threshold estimation and does so substantially faster than policies that attempt to estimate the full psychometric function (though it still provides estimates of the function, albeit with lower accuracy). Finally, we introduce AEPsych, a user-friendly open-source package for nonparametric psychophysics that makes these technically-challenging methods accessible to the broader community.

Understanding nonlinear structure formation is crucial for fully exploring the data generated by stage IV surveys, requiring accurate modelling of the power spectrum. This is challenging for deviations from $\Lambda$CDM, but we must ensure that alternatives are well tested, to avoid false detections. We present an extension of the halo model reaction framework for interacting dark energy. We modify the halo model including the additional force present in the Dark Scattering model and implement it into ReACT. The reaction is combined with a pseudo spectrum from EuclidEmulator2 and compared to N-body simulations. Using standard mass function and concentration-mass relation, we find predictions to be 1 % accurate at $z=0$ up to $k=0.8~h/{\rm Mpc}$ for the largest interaction strength tested ($\xi=50$ b/GeV), improving to $2~h/{\rm Mpc}$ at $z=1$. For smaller interaction strength ($10$ b/GeV), we find 1 % agreement at $z=1$ up to scales above $3.5~h/{\rm Mpc}$, being close to $1~h/{\rm Mpc}$ at $z=0$. Finally, we improve our predictions with the inclusion of baryonic feedback and massive neutrinos and study degeneracies between the effects of these contributions and those of the interaction. Limiting the scales to where our modelling is 1 % accurate, we find a degeneracy between the interaction and feedback, but not with massive neutrinos. We expect the degeneracy with feedback to be resolvable by including smaller scales. This work represents the first analytical tool for calculating the nonlinear spectrum for interacting dark energy models.

Diagnosing the spatial-temporal pattern of magnetic flux on the Sun is vital for understanding the origin of solar magnetism and activity. Here, we report a new form of flux appearance, magnetic outbreak, using observations with an extremely high spatial resolution of 0.16 arcsec from the 1.6-m Goode Solar Telescope (GST) at the Big Bear Solar Observatory. Magnetic outbreak refers to an early growth of unipolar magnetic flux and its later explosion into fragments, in association with plasma upflow and exploding granulations; each individual fragment has flux of 10$^{16}$-10$^{17}$ Mx, moving apart with velocity of 0.5-2.2 km/s. The magnetic outbreak takes place in the hecto-Gauss region of pore moats. In this study, we identify six events of magnetic outbreak during 6-hour observations over an approximate 40$\times$40 arcsec$^{2}$ field of view. The newly discovered magnetic outbreak might be the first evidence of the long-anticipated convective blowup.

Quasicrystals can be considered, from the point of view of their electronic properties, as being intermediate between metals and insulators. For example, experiments show that quasicrystalline alloys such as AlCuFe or AlPdMn have conductivities far smaller than those of the metals that these alloys are composed from. Wave functions in a quasicrystal are typically intermediate in character between the extended states of a crystal and the exponentially localized states in the insulating phase, and this is also reflected in the energy spectrum and the density of states. In the theoretical studies we consider in this review, the quasicrystals are described by a pure hopping tight binding model on simple tilings. We focus on spectral properties, which we compare with those of other complex systems, in particular, the Anderson model of a disordered metal.

We describe a novel Godunov-type numerical method for solving the equations of resistive relativistic magnetohydrodynamics. In the proposed approach, the spatial components of both magnetic and electric fields are located at zone interfaces and are evolved using the constrained transport formalism. Direct application of Stokes' theorem to Faraday's and Ampere's laws ensures that the resulting discretization is divergence-free for the magnetic field and charge-conserving for the electric field. Hydrodynamic variables retain, instead, the usual zone-centred representation commonly adopted in finite-volume schemes. Temporal discretization is based on Runge-Kutta implicit-explicit (IMEX) schemes in order to resolve the temporal scale disparity introduced by the stiff source term in Ampere's law. The implicit step is accomplished by means of an improved and more efficient Newton-Broyden multidimensional root-finding algorithm. The explicit step relies on a multidimensional Riemann solver to compute the line-averaged electric and magnetic fields at zone edges and it employs a one-dimensional Riemann solver at zone interfaces to update zone-centred hydrodynamic quantities. For the latter, we introduce a five-wave solver based on the frozen limit of the relaxation system whereby the solution to the Riemann problem can be decomposed into an outer Maxwell solver and an inner hydrodynamic solver. A number of numerical benchmarks demonstrate that our method is superior in stability and robustness to the more popular charge-conserving divergence cleaning approach where both primary electric and magnetic fields are zone-centered. In addition, the employment of a less diffusive Riemann solver noticeably improves the accuracy of the computations.

We consider maximal almost disjoint families of block subspaces of countable vector spaces, focusing on questions of their size and definability. We prove that the minimum infinite cardinality of such a family cannot be decided in ZFC and that the "spectrum" of cardinalities of mad families of subspaces can be made arbitrarily large, in analogy to results for mad families on $\omega$ . We apply the author's local Ramsey theory for vector spaces to give partial results concerning their definability.

In the Next-to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) deviations from the SM signal strengths of the 125 GeV Higgs boson are expected, because of the mixing with the additional singlet-like Higgs boson and/or additional decays into pairs of light particles, like neutralinos, pseudo-scalar Higgs bosons or singlet Higgs bosons. In this paper the size of the possible deviations and their expected correlations or anti-correlations between \textit{bosonic} and \textit{fermionic} final states are analyzed using the efficient parameter scanning technique with complete coverage presented in a companion paper. The regions of parameter space with correlated or anti-correlated deviations of the signal strengths are identified.

An isotropic electromagnetic field in a plasma of thermalized electrons undergoes changes in energy as a result of Compton scattering and an Einstein-Hopf drag force on the electrons, eventually approaching a Bose-Einstein photon distribution at the electron temperature. The rate of change of feld energy due to the combined effects of Compton scattering and the drag force is shown to be described by the Kompaneets equation for photon diffusion in frequency space. A similarity is noted between this approach and Einstein's derivation of the Planck spectrum based on the recoil of atoms as they absorb and emit radiation.

We bring a totally new concept for plasma simulation, other than the conventional two ways: Fluid/Kinetic Continuum (FKC) method and Particle-in-Cell (PIC) method. This method is based on Pure Monte Carlo (PMC), but far beyond traditional treatments. PMC solves all the equations (kinetic, fluid, field) and treats all the procedures (collisions, others) in the system via MC method. As shown in two paradigms, many advantages have found. It has shown the capability to be the third importance approach for plasma simulation or even completely substitute the other two in the future. It's also suitable for many unsolved problems, then bring plasma simulation to a new era.

About half of the lines and half of the species (in particular N2H+, SiO, C34S, DCN, DNC, DCO+, HC3N, H2CO, H2CS, SO2) have not been previously reported in S255IR and partly in S255N at high angular resolution. Our data reveal several new clumps in the S255IR and S255N areas by their millimeter wave continuum emission. Masses of these clumps are estimated at a few solar masses. The line widths greatly exceed expected thermal widths. These clumps have practically no association with NIR or radio continuum sources, implying a very early stage of evolution. At the same time, our SiO data indicate the presence of high-velocity outflows related to some of these clumps. In some cases, strong molecular emission at velocities of the quiescent gas has no detectable counterpart in the continuum. We discuss the main features of the distribution of NH3, N2H+, and deuterated molecules. We estimate properties of decimeter wave radio continuum sources and their relationship with the molecular material.

Single particle dynamics in electron microscopes, ion or electron lithographic instruments, particle accelerators, and particle spectrographs is described by weakly nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Therefore, the linear part of the equation of motion is usually solved and the nonlinear effects are then found in successive order by iteration methods. A Hamiltonian nature of these equations can lead to simplified computations of particle transport through an optical device when a suitable computational method is used. Many ingenious microscopic and lithographic devices were found by H. Rose and his group due to the simple structure of the eikonal method. In the area of accelerator physics the eikonal method has never become popular. Here I will therefore generalize the eikonal method and derive it from a Hamiltonian quite familiar to the accelerator physics community. With the event of high energy polarized electron beams and plans for high energy proton beams, nonlinear effects in spin motion have become important in high energy accelerators. I will introduce a successive approximation for the nonlinear effects in the coupled spin and orbit motion of charged particles which resembles some of the simplifications resulting from the eikonal method for the pure orbit motion.

In addition a procedure to obtain a vectorial quantizer is given, in order to achieve a fully vectorial speech encoder. We also present several results with the proposed system

We report the evolution of charge density wave states under pressure for two NbS3 phases triclinic (phase I) and monoclinic (phase II) at room temperature. Raman and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques are applied. The x-ray studies on the monoclinic phase under pressure show a compression of the lattice at different rates below and above 7 GPa but without a change in space group symmetry. The Raman spectra of the two phases evolve similarly with pressure; all peaks almost disappear in the 6-8 GPa range, indicating a transition from an insulating to a metallic state, and peaks at new positions appear above 8 GPa. The results suggest suppression of the ambient charge-density waves and their subsequent recovery with new orderings above 8 GPa.

We present a detailed analysis of a high resolution spectrum of the damped Ly$\alpha$ system at $z_{\rm abs}$~=~2.8112toward PKS~0528-250. The absorption redshift is slightly larger than the emission redshift of the quasar. We estimate the column density of H$_2$ molecules $N$(H$_2$)~$\sim$~6$\times$10$^{16}$~cm$^{-2}$ and the fractional abundance of H$_2$, $f$~=~5.4$\times$10$^{-5}$. The excitation temperature derived for different transitions suggests that the kinetic temperature of the cloud is $\sim$200~K and the density $n$~$\sim$~1000~cm$^{-3}$. The cloud therefore has a dimension of $\sim$1~pc along the line of sight. Since it obscures the broad-line emission region, its transverse dimension should be larger than 10~pc.\par We obtain upper limits on the column densities of C~{\sc i} ($<$~10$^{12.7}$~cm$^{-2}$) and CO ($<$~10$^{13.2}$~cm$^{-2}$; $N$(CO)/$N$(H~{\sc i})~$<$~7$\times$10$^{-9}$).We suggest that the ratio $N$(H$_2$)/$N$(C~{\sc i}) is a useful indicator of the physical conditions in the absorber. Simple photo-ionization models assuming solar relative abundances show that radiation fields with spectra similar to typical AGNs or starbursts are unable to reproduce all the constraints and in particular the surprisingly small $N$(C~{\sc i})/ $N$(H$_2$) and $N$(Mg~{\sc i})/$N$(H$_2$) ratios. In view of the models we explored, the most likely ionizing spectrum is a composite of a UV- "big bump" possibly produced by a local starburst and a power-law spectrum from the QSO that provides the X-rays. Dust is needed to explain the production of molecules in the cloud. The amount of dust is broadly consistent with the [Cr/Zn] abundance determination.

Insulators with non-trivial topology support mid-gap modes localized at the boundaries of the sample. We consider the spinless Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (SBHZ) model, one of the simplest models of a Chern insulator, in contact with external reservoirs (metallic leads) at its opposite ends. We study scattering states formed by these edge modes using the non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism. These special states give rise to perfect transmission from one lead to another, leading to quantized two-terminal conductance. We look at the charge and current density profiles, associated to these modes, in the insulator as well as in the leads. As expected, we find that the current inside the insulator is localized along the edges of the sample. Surprisingly, we find that even in the leads, the current density is localized and shows an interesting zigzag pattern. We also look at finite-size effects on the quantized two-terminal conductance and its dependence on system-reservoir coupling.

Top-K SpMV is a key component of similarity-search on sparse embeddings. This sparse workload does not perform well on general-purpose NUMA systems that employ traditional caching strategies. Instead, modern FPGA accelerator cards have a few tricks up their sleeve. We introduce a Top-K SpMV FPGA design that leverages reduced precision and a novel packet-wise CSR matrix compression, enabling custom data layouts and delivering bandwidth efficiency often unreachable even in architectures with higher peak bandwidth. With HBM-based boards, we are 100x faster than a multi-threaded CPU implementation and 2x faster than a GPU with 20% higher bandwidth, with 14.2x higher power-efficiency.

Describing the kinetics of polymer reactions, such as the formation of loops and hairpins in nucleic acids or polypeptides, is complicated by the structural dynamics of their chains. Although both intramolecular reactions, such as cyclization, and intermolecular reactions have been studied extensively, both experimentally and theoretically, there is to date no exact explicit analytical treatment of transport-limited polymer reaction kinetics, even in the case of the simplest (Rouse) model of monomers connected by linear springs. We introduce a new analytical approach to calculate the mean reaction time of polymer reactions that encompasses the non-Markovian dynamics of monomer motion. This requires that the conformational statistics of the polymer at the very instant of reaction be determined, which provides, as a by-product, new information on the reaction path. We show that the typical reactive conformation of the polymer is more extended than the equilibrium conformation, which leads to reaction times significantly shorter than predicted by the existing classical Markovian theory.

Estimating the position of the whole-body centre of mass (CoM) based on skin markers and anthropometric tables requires tracking the pelvis and lower body, which is impossible for wheelchair users due to occlusion. In this work, we present a method to track the user's whole-body CoM using visible markers affixed to the user and wheelchair where the user remains seated in their wheelchair, by expressing the pelvis and lower body segments in wheelchair coordinates. The accuracy of this method was evaluated on the anterior-posterior (AP) and medial-lateral (ML) axes by comparing the projected CoM to the centre of pressure measured by four force plates, for 11 able-bodied participants adopting 9 static postures that include extreme reaching postures. The estimation accuracy was within 33 mm (AP) and 9 mm (ML), with a precision within 23 mm (AP) and 12 mm (ML). Tracking the whole-body CoM during wheelchair propulsion will allow researchers to better understand the dynamics of propulsion, which may help devise new approaches to increase the energy transfer from the arms to the ground and reduce the risks of developing musculoskeletal disorders.

We employ an efficient numerical approach to simulate a stationary distribution of test objects, which results from their gravitational scattering on the four giant planets, with accounting for effects of mean motion resonances. Using the observed distribution of the Kuiper belt objects, we reconstruct, in the space of orbital coordinates, the distribution function $n(a,e,i)$ for the population of minor bodies beyond Jupiter. We confirm that thousands of large yet cold comets and Centaurs might be located between the orbits of Jupiter and Neptune. Moreover, we find as an important result that they are concentrated into four circumsolar belts, with a highly non-uniform and well structured distribution of the objects. This huge yet unrevealed population, with only a few of its representatives presently known, is expected to have, like our simulations demonstrate, a rich resonant structure containing both density maxima and gaps. The resonant structure is formed due to gravitational perturbations, i.e. in a non-dissipative way. If plotted in the ($a,e,i$)-space of orbital coordinates, the belts contain gaps (including those between resonant groups), quite similar to the Kirkwood gaps in the main asteroid belt. An appreciable fraction of the test bodies reveals, for some time, an accumulation near (rather than in) the resonances, both interior and exterior, with the giant planets. An accompanying paper considers the population simulated in this work as the major source of dust in the outer Solar system. The simple but fast and efficient numerical approach employed in this work would allow the reader for applying it to many other problems of his/her interest.

The cosmological and astrophysical implications of a shadow matter model which could also have interesting experimental consequences are examined. The model has identical microphysics for both the ordinary and shadow worlds but requires a macroscopic asymmetry from nucleosynthesis constraints. It is proposed that this macroscopic asymmetry can be generated at the quark-hadron phase transition.
