We study the behavior of eigenvalues of a magnetic Aharonov-Bohm operator with non-half-integer circulation and Dirichlet boundary conditions in a planar domain. As the pole is moving in the interior of the domain, we estimate the rate of the eigenvalue variation in terms of the vanishing order of the limit eigenfunction at the limit pole. We also provide an accurate blow-up analysis for scaled eigenfunctions and prove a sharp estimate for their rate of convergence.

Blue phases of cholesteric liquid crystals offer a spectacular example of naturally occurring disclination line networks. Here we numerically solve the hydrodynamic equations of motion to investigate the response of three types of blue phases to an imposed Poiseuille flow. We show that shear forces bend and twist and can unzip the disclination lines. Under gentle forcing the network opposes the flow and the apparent viscosity is significantly higher than that of an isotropic liquid. With increased forcing we find strong shear thinning corresponding to the disruption of the defect network. As the viscosity starts to drop, the imposed flow sets the network into motion. Disclinations break-up and re-form with their neighbours in the flow direction. This gives rise to oscillations in the time-dependent measurement of the average stress.

We present a numerical algorithm for predicting the optimal conditions for the effective alignment of magnetic particles in dense powders during the compactization process using an externally applied field. This task is especially important for the permanent magnets development due to the fact that alignment of anisotropy axes of nanocomposite grains increases both remanence and coercivity of magnetic materials. In contrast to previously known methods where magnetic moment of each particle was assumed to be 'fixed' with respect to the particle itself, our approach takes into account the (field-dependent) deviation of this moment from the particle anisotropy axis that occurs even for magnetically 'hard' particles possessing a strong mechanical contact. We show, that this deviation leads to the existence of the optimal value of the applied field for which the particle orientation (or alignment) time is minimal. The influence of the external pressure and internal mechanical friction on the details of the compactization/orientation process is also studied.

Expansion in Higher Harmonics of Boson Stars using a Generalized Ruffini-Bonazzola Approach, Part 1: Bound States

The method pioneered by Ruffini and Bonazzola (RB) to describe boson stars involves an expansion of the boson field which is linear in creation and annihilation operators. In the nonrelativistic limit, the equation of motion of RB is equivalent to the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Further, the RB expansion constitutes an exact solution to a non-interacting field theory, and has been used as a reasonable ansatz for an interacting one. In this work, we show how one can go beyond the RB ansatz towards an exact solution of the interacting operator Klein-Gordon equation, which can be solved iteratively to ever higher precision. Our Generalized Ruffini-Bonazzola approach takes into account contributions from nontrivial harmonic dependence of the wavefunction, using a sum of terms with energy $k\,E_0$, where $k\geq1$ and $E_0$ is the chemical potential of a single bound axion. The method critically depends on an expansion in a parameter $\Delta \equiv \sqrt{1 - E_0{}^2/m^2} < 1$, where $m$ is the mass of the boson. In the case of the axion potential, we calculate corrections which are relevant for axion stars in the transition or dense branches of solutions. We find with high precision the local minimum of the mass, $M_{min}\approx 463\,f^2/m$, at $\Delta\approx0.27$, where $f$ is the axion decay constant. This point marks the crossover from the transition branch to the dense branch of solutions, and a corresponding crossover from structural instability to stability.

A new anomaly-free gauged $U(1)_\ell$ lepton-number model is studied. Two standard model lepton generations acquire the same but oppositive sign $U(1)_\ell$ charges, while four exotic chiral leptons cancel the anomalies of the remaining lepton family. We discuss a simplified case which has the universal Yukawa couplings. It agrees with all the experimental constraints and predicts $m_e, m_\mu \ll m_\tau$, and the latter is of the electroweak scale. Due to the interference between the SM and $U(1)_\ell$ gauge interactions, this model robustly predicts that $e,\mu,\tau$ have distinctive forward-backward asymmetries at the $e^+e^-$ colliders. It can be searched for at the $e^+e^-$ machine with $\sim$ TeV center-of-mass energy and an integrated luminosity $\sim ab^{-1}$.

We present a new event generator based on the three-fluid hydrodynamics approach for the early stage of the collision, followed by a particlization at the hydrodynamic decoupling surface to join to a microscopic transport model, UrQMD, to account for hadronic final state interactions. We present first results for nuclear collisions of the FAIR/NICA energy scan program (Au+Au collisions, $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=4-11$ GeV). We address the directed flow of protons and pions as well as the proton rapidity distribution for two model EoS, one with a first order phase transition the other with a crossover type softening at high densities. The new simulation program has the unique feature that it can describe a hadron-to-quark matter transition which proceeds in the baryon stopping regime that is not accessible to previous simulation programs designed for higher energies.

We derive the relativistic transformation laws for the annihilation operators of the scalar field, the massive spin-1 vector field, the electromagnetic field and the spinor field. The technique developed here involves straightforward mathematical techniques based on fundamental quantum field theory, and is applicable to the study of entanglement in arbitrary coordinate transformations. In particular, it predicts particle creation for non-inertial motion. Furthermore, we present a unified description of relativistic transformations and multi-particle interferometry with bosons and fermions, which encompasses linear optical quantum computing.

The notion of a Bing cell is introduced, and it is used to define invariants, link groups, of 4-manifolds. Bing cells combine some features of both surfaces and 4-dimensional handlebodies, and the link group \lambda(M) measures certain aspects of the handle structure of a 4-manifold M. This group is a quotient of the fundamental group, and examples of manifolds are given with \pi_1(M) not equal to \lambda(M). The main construction of the paper is a generalization of the Milnor group, which is used to formulate an obstruction to embeddability of Bing cells into 4-space. Applications to the A-B slice problem and to the structure of topological arbiters are discussed.

Advances in self-supervised learning have significantly reduced the amount of transcribed audio required for training. However, the majority of work in this area is focused on read speech. We explore limited supervision in the domain of conversational speech. While we assume the amount of in-domain data is limited, we augment the model with open source read speech data. The XLS-R model has been shown to perform well with limited adaptation data and serves as a strong baseline. We use untranscribed data for self-supervised learning and semi-supervised training in an autoregressive encoder-decoder model. We demonstrate that by using the XLS-R model for pseudotranscription, a much smaller autoregressive model can outperform a finetuned XLS-R model when transcribed in-domain data is limited, reducing WER by as much as 8% absolute.

We show that all algebraic Type-O, Type-N and Type-D and some Kundt-Type solutions of Topologically Massive Gravity are inherited by its holographically well-defined deformation, that is the recently found Minimal Massive Gravity. This construction provides a large class of constant scalar curvature solutions to the theory. We also study the consistency of the field equations both in the source-free and matter-coupled cases. Since the field equations of MMG do not come from a Lagrangian that depends on the metric and its derivatives only, it lacks the Bianchi identity valid for all non-singular metrics. But it turns out that for the solutions of the equations, Bianchi identity is satisfied. This is a necessary condition for the consistency of the classical field equations but not a sufficient one, since the the rank-two tensor equations are susceptible to double-divergence. We show that for the source-free case the double-divergence of the field equations vanish for the solutions. In the matter-coupled case, we show that the double-divergence of the left-hand side and the right-hand side are equal to each other for the solutions of the theory. This construction completes the proof of the the consistency of the field equations.

Background: The rate at which fitness declines as an organism's genome accumulates random mutations is an important variable in several evolutionary theories. At an intuitive level, it might seem natural that random mutations should tend to interact synergistically, such that the rate of mean fitness decline accelerates as the number of random mutations is increased. However, in a number of recent studies, a prevalence of antagonistic epistasis (the tendency of multiple mutations to have a mitigating rather than reinforcing effect) has been observed. Results: We studied in silico the net amount and form of epistatic interactions in RNA secondary structure folding by measuring the fraction of neutral mutants as a function of mutational distance d. We found a clear prevalence of antagonistic epistasis in RNA secondary structure folding. By relating the fraction of neutral mutants at distance d to the average neutrality at distance d, we showed that this prevalence derives from the existence of many compensatory mutations at larger mutational distances. Conclusions: Our findings imply that the average direction of epistasis in simple fitness landscapes is directly related to the density with which fitness peaks are distributed in these landscapes.

An EMO Joint Pruning with Multiple Sub-networks: Fast and Effect

The network pruning algorithm based on evolutionary multi-objective (EMO) can balance the pruning rate and performance of the network. However, its population-based nature often suffers from the complex pruning optimization space and the highly resource-consuming pruning structure verification process, which limits its application. To this end, this paper proposes an EMO joint pruning with multiple sub-networks (EMO-PMS) to reduce space complexity and resource consumption. First, a divide-and-conquer EMO network pruning framework is proposed, which decomposes the complex EMO pruning task on the whole network into easier sub-tasks on multiple sub-networks. On the one hand, this decomposition reduces the pruning optimization space and decreases the optimization difficulty; on the other hand, the smaller network structure converges faster, so the computational resource consumption of the proposed algorithm is lower. Secondly, a sub-network training method based on cross-network constraints is designed so that the sub-network can process the features generated by the previous one through feature constraints. This method allows sub-networks optimized independently to collaborate better and improves the overall performance of the pruned network. Finally, a multiple sub-networks joint pruning method based on EMO is proposed. For one thing, it can accurately measure the feature processing capability of the sub-networks with the pre-trained feature selector. For another, it can combine multi-objective pruning results on multiple sub-networks through global performance impairment ranking to design a joint pruning scheme. The proposed algorithm is validated on three datasets with different challenging. Compared with fifteen advanced pruning algorithms, the experiment results exhibit the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

Magnetic tunnel junction-based molecular spintronics devices (MTJMSDs) are designed by covalently connecting the paramagnetic molecules across two ferromagnets (FM) electrodes of a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). MTJMSD provides opportunities to connect FM electrodes of a vast range of anisotropy properties to a variety of molecules of length scale. Our prior studies showed that the paramagnetic molecules can produce strong antiferromagnetic coupling with FM electrodes. The device properties of MTJMSD depend upon various factors such as anisotropy, spin fluctuation, thermal energy, etc. In this paper, we report a theoretical Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) study to explain the impact of anisotropy on the MTJMSD equilibrium properties. We studied the energy variation of the MTJMSD system with time as a function of FM electrode anisotropy. Experimentally designed FM electrodes of MTJMSD contain multi-layers of different ferromagnetic materials. These materials possess in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy characteristics. To understand the competing effect of in-plane and out-of-plane anisotropy, we have computationally applied anisotropies on the left FM electrode. For the MCS study, the orientation of the device was kept along YZ plane. As a result, the applied anisotropy along the X-direction (\mathbit{A}_{\mathbit{Lx}}) and Y-direction (\mathbit{A}_{\mathbit{Ly}}) represent out-of-plane and in-plane anisotropy, respectively. We found that increasing anisotropy strength starts exhibiting diverse domain structures within an FM electrode. Increasing the magnitude of anisotropy was found to create stripe-shaped domains with opposite spins. These domains represent the different magnetic phases. However, the application of equal magnitude of in-plane and out-of-plane cancels the strip domain formation and lowers the magnetic moment of overall MTJMSD.

We present a full-sky derivation of weak lensing observables in the Post-Friedmann (PF) formalism. Weak lensing has the characteristic of mixing small scales and large scales since it is affected by inhomogeneities integrated along the photon trajectory. With the PF formalism, we develop a modelling of lensing observables which encompasses both leading order relativistic effects and effects that are due to the fully non-linear matter distribution at small scales. We derive the reduced shear, convergence and rotation up to order $1/c^4$ in the PF approximation, accounting for scalar, vector and tensor perturbations, as well as galaxies' peculiar velocities. We discuss the various contributions that break the Kaiser-Squires relation between the shear and the convergence at different orders. We pay particular attention to the impact of the frame-dragging vector potential on lensing observables and we discuss potential ways to measure this effect in future lensing surveys.

Within the context of scalar-tensor gravity, we explore the generalized second law (GSL) of gravitational thermodynamics. We extend the action of ordinary scalar-tensor gravity theory to the case in which there is a non-minimal coupling between the scalar field and the matter field (as chameleon field). Then, we derive the field equations governing the gravity and the scalar field. For a FRW universe filled only with ordinary matter, we obtain the modified Friedmann equations as well as the evolution equation of the scalar field. Furthermore, we assume the boundary of the universe to be enclosed by the dynamical apparent horizon which is in thermal equilibrium with the Hawking temperature. We obtain a general expression for the GSL of thermodynamics in the scalar-tensor gravity model. For some viable scalar-tensor models, we first obtain the evolutionary behaviors of the matter density, the scale factor, the Hubble parameter, the scalar field, the deceleration parameter as well as the effective equation of state (EoS) parameter. We conclude that in most of the models, the deceleration parameter approaches a de Sitter regime at late times, as expected. Also the effective EoS parameter acts like the LCDM model at late times. Finally, we examine the validity of the GSL for the selected models.

The paper Borovkova et al. [4] uses moment matching method to obtain closed form formulas for spread and basket call option prices under log normal models. In this note, we also use moment matching method to obtain semi-closed form formulas for the price of spread options under exponential L\'evy models with mean-variance mixture. Unlike the semi-closed form formulas in Caldana and Fusai [5], where spread prices were expressed by using Fourier inversion formula for general price dynamics, our formula expresses spread prices in terms of the mixing distribution. Numerical tests show that our formulas give accurate spread prices also

Calculations of neutrino-nucleus cross sections begin with the neutrino-nucleon interaction, making the latter critically important to flagship neutrino oscillation experiments, despite limited measurements with poor statistics. Alternatively, lattice QCD (LQCD) can be used to determine these interactions from the Standard Model with quantifiable theoretical uncertainties. Recent LQCD results of $g_{\mathrm{A}}$ are in excellent agreement with data, and results for the (quasi-)elastic nucleon form factors with full uncertainty budgets are expected within a few years. We review the status of the field and LQCD results for the nucleon axial form factor, $F_{\mathrm{A}}(Q^2)$, a major source of uncertainty in modeling sub-GeV neutrino-nucleon interactions. Results from different LQCD calculations are consistent, but collectively disagree with existing models, with potential implications for current and future neutrino oscillation experiments. We describe a road map to solidify confidence in the LQCD results and discuss future calculations of more complicated processes, important to few-GeV neutrino oscillation experiments.

Cross sections for neutron capture in the range of unresolved resonances are predicted simultaneously to level distances at the neutron threshold for more than 100 spin-0 target nuclei with A >70. Assuming triaxiality in nearly all these nuclei a combined parameterization for both, level density and photon strength is presented. The strength functions used are based on a global fit to IVGDR shapes by the sum of three Lorentzians adding up to the TRK sum rule and theory-based predictions for the A-dependence of pole energies and spreading widths. For the small spins reached by capture level densities are well described by only one free global parameter; a significant collective enhancement due to the deviation from axial symmetry is observed. Reliable predictions for compound nuclear reactions also outside the valley of stability as expected from the derived global parameterization are important for nuclear astrophysics and for the transmutation of nuclear waste.

The production of heavy and light neutrinos in $e^+e^-$ future colliders is considered. The cross section for the process $e^+e^- \rightarrow \nu N$ and then the heavy neutrino decay $N \rightarrow W^{\pm} e^{\mp}$ is determined for experimentally possible values of mixing matrix elements. The bound on the heavy neutrino-electron mixing is estimated in models without right-handed currents. The role of neutrino CP eigenvalues and the mass of the lightest Higgs particle are investigated. The angular distribution of charged leptons in the total CM frame resulting from the heavy neutrino decay and from the main $W^+W^-$ production background process are briefly compared.

Deep Gaussian Processes (DGPs) were proposed as an expressive Bayesian model capable of a mathematically grounded estimation of uncertainty. The expressivity of DPGs results from not only the compositional character but the distribution propagation within the hierarchy. Recently, [1] pointed out that the hierarchical structure of DGP well suited modeling the multi-fidelity regression, in which one is provided sparse observations with high precision and plenty of low fidelity observations. We propose the conditional DGP model in which the latent GPs are directly supported by the fixed lower fidelity data. Then the moment matching method in [2] is applied to approximate the marginal prior of conditional DGP with a GP. The obtained effective kernels are implicit functions of the lower-fidelity data, manifesting the expressivity contributed by distribution propagation within the hierarchy. The hyperparameters are learned via optimizing the approximate marginal likelihood. Experiments with synthetic and high dimensional data show comparable performance against other multi-fidelity regression methods, variational inference, and multi-output GP. We conclude that, with the low fidelity data and the hierarchical DGP structure, the effective kernel encodes the inductive bias for true function allowing the compositional freedom discussed in [3,4].

Gravitational lensing by scalar-tensor wormholes and the energy conditions

We study gravitational lensing by a class of zero Ricci scalar wormholes which arise as solutions in a scalar-tensor theory of gravity. An attempt is made to find a possible link between lensing features, stable/unstable photon orbits and the energy conditions on the matter required to support these spacetimes. Our analysis shows (for this class of wormholes) that light rays always exhibit a positive deflection if the energy conditions are satisfied (nonexotic matter content). In contrast, if the energy conditions are violated (exotic matter), the net deflection of a light ray may be positive, negative or even zero, depending on values of the metric and impact parameters. This prompts us to introduce a surface defined by a turning point value at which the net deflection of a light ray is equal to zero, even though we have a curved spacetime geometry. We argue that the existence of such a surface may be linked to exotic/energy condition violating matter. Wormholes in modified gravity with matter satisfying the energy conditions do not seem to have such a zero deflection surface. Finally, we study strong gravitational lensing briefly and also look into the formation of Einstein and relativistic Einstein rings. We conclude with some estimates on the wormhole mass, throat-radius and the detectability of the Einstein rings.

In this paper, we study various cosmological parameters and quantities in scalar-tensor gravity from inflation and swampland conjecture. Therefore, by selecting different models such as power-law, exponential, and logarithmic in the framework of scalar-tensor theory, we obtain potential, tensor-to-scalar ratio, and the scalar spectral index. Next, we examine new constraints and compare the corresponding results with the latest observable data. Here, we take advantage of the obtained results and determine the compatibility or incompatibility of the corresponding model with the swampland conjectures

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) are relatively new security primitives used for device authentication and device-specific secret key generation. In this paper we focus on SRAM-PUFs. The SRAM-PUFs enjoy uniqueness and randomness properties stemming from the intrinsic randomness of SRAM memory cells, which is a result of manufacturing variations. This randomness can be translated into the cryptographic keys thus avoiding the need to store and manage the device cryptographic keys. Therefore these properties, combined with the fact that SRAM memory can be often found in today's IoT devices, make SRAM-PUFs a promising candidate for securing and authentication of the resource-constrained IoT devices. PUF observations are always effected by noise and environmental changes. Therefore secret-generation schemes with helper data are used to guarantee reliable regeneration of the PUF-based secret keys. Error correction codes (ECCs) are an essential part of these schemes. In this work, we propose a practical error correction construction for PUF-based secret generation that are based on polar codes. The resulting scheme can generate $128$-bit keys using $1024$ SRAM-PUF bits and $896$ helper data bits and achieve a failure probability of $10^{-9}$ or lower for a practical SRAM-PUFs setting with bit error probability of $15\%$. The method is based on successive cancellation combined with list decoding and hash-based checking that makes use of the hash that is already available at the decoder. In addition, an adaptive list decoder for polar codes is investigated. This decoder increases the list size only if needed.

In functional linear regression, the parameters estimation involves solving a non necessarily well-posed problem and it has points of contact with a range of methodologies, including statistical smoothing, deconvolution and projection on finite-dimensional subspaces. We discuss the standard approach based explicitly on functional principal components analysis, nevertheless the choice of the number of basis components remains something subjective and not always properly discussed and justified. In this work we discuss inferential properties of least square estimation in this context with different choices of projection subspaces, as well as we study asymptotic behaviour increasing the dimension of subspaces.

We use the Pearson cross-correlation statistic proposed by Liu and Jackson, and employed by Creswell et al., to look for statistically significant correlations between the LIGO Hanford and Livingston detectors at the time of the binary black hole merger GW150914. We compute this statistic for the calibrated strain data released by LIGO, using both the residuals provided by LIGO and using our own subtraction of a maximum-likelihood waveform that is constructed to model binary black hole mergers in general relativity. To assign a significance to the values obtained, we calculate the cross-correlation of both simulated Gaussian noise and data from the LIGO detectors at times during which no detection of gravitational waves has been claimed. We find that after subtracting the maximum likelihood waveform there are no statistically significant correlations between the residuals of the two detectors at the time of GW150914.

Fact-based Visual Question Answering (FVQA) requires external knowledge beyond visible content to answer questions about an image, which is challenging but indispensable to achieve general VQA. One limitation of existing FVQA solutions is that they jointly embed all kinds of information without fine-grained selection, which introduces unexpected noises for reasoning the final answer. How to capture the question-oriented and information-complementary evidence remains a key challenge to solve the problem. In this paper, we depict an image by a multi-modal heterogeneous graph, which contains multiple layers of information corresponding to the visual, semantic and factual features. On top of the multi-layer graph representations, we propose a modality-aware heterogeneous graph convolutional network to capture evidence from different layers that is most relevant to the given question. Specifically, the intra-modal graph convolution selects evidence from each modality and cross-modal graph convolution aggregates relevant information across different modalities. By stacking this process multiple times, our model performs iterative reasoning and predicts the optimal answer by analyzing all question-oriented evidence. We achieve a new state-of-the-art performance on the FVQA task and demonstrate the effectiveness and interpretability of our model with extensive experiments.

Mechanisms for non-invasive target drug delivery using microbubbles and ultrasound have attracted growing interest. Microbubbles can be loaded with a therapeutic payload and tracked via ultrasound imaging to selectively release their payload at ultrasound-targeted locations. In this study, an ultrasonic trapping method is proposed for simultaneously imaging and controlling the location of microbubbles in flow by using acoustic radiation force. Targeted drug delivery methods are expected to benefit from the use of the ultrasonic trap, since trapping will increase the MB concentration at a desired location in human body. The ultrasonic trap was generated by using an ultrasound research system UARP II and a linear array transducer. The trap was designed asymmetrically to produces a weaker radiation force at the inlet of the trap to further facilitate microbubble entrance. A pulse sequence was generated that can switch between a long duration trapping waveform and short duration imaging waveform. High frame rate plane wave imaging was chosen for monitoring trapped microbubbles at 1 kHz. The working principle of the ultrasonic trap was explained and demonstrated in an ultrasound phantom by injecting SonoVue microbubbles flowing at 80 mL/min flow rate in a 3.5 mm diameter vessel.

Some dividing cells sense their shape by becoming polarized along their long axis. Cell polarity is controlled in part by polarity proteins like Rho GTPases cycling between active membrane-bound forms and inactive cytosolic forms, modeled as a "wave-pinning" reaction-diffusion process. Does shape sensing emerge from wave-pinning? We show that wave pinning senses the cell's long axis. Simulating wave-pinning on a curved surface, we find that high-activity domains migrate to peaks and troughs of the surface. For smooth surfaces, a simple rule of minimizing the domain perimeter while keeping its area fixed predicts the final position of the domain and its shape. However, when we introduce roughness to our surfaces, shape sensing can be disrupted, and high-activity domains can become localized to locations other than the global peaks and valleys of the surface. On rough surfaces, the domains of the wave-pinning model are more robust in finding the peaks and troughs than the minimization rule, though both can become trapped in steady states away from the peaks and valleys. We can control the robustness of shape sensing by altering the Rho GTPase diffusivity and the domain size. We also find that the shape sensing properties of cell polarity models can explain how domains localize to curved regions of deformed cells. Our results help to understand the factors that allow cells to sense their shape - and the limits that membrane roughness can place on this process.

As a consequence of motions driven by external forces, self-fields originate within an electron bunch, which are different from the static case. In the case of magnetic external forces acting on an ultrarelativistic beam, the longitudinal self-interactions are responsible for CSR (Coherent Synchrotron Radiation)-related phenomena, which have been studied extensively. On the other hand, transverse self-interactions are present too. At the time being, several existing theoretical analysis of transverse dynamics rely on the so-called cancellation effect, which has been around for more than ten years. In this paper we explain why in our view such an effect is not of practical nor of theoretical importance.

Employing the concept of three-body radial distribution function and using the two-body correlation functions, calculated based on the lowest order constrained variational method, we investigated the effect of the three-body force (TBF) on the nuclear matter properties, for Argonne and Urbana $\it{v_{14}}$ potentials. As such, the results for nuclear matter density, incompressibility, energy per nucleon, and symmetry energy are presented at the saturation point. The inclusion of a phenomenological TBF resulted in closer values of the saturation density, incompressibility, and symmetry energy to the empirical ones for the symmetric nuclear matter. This is especially the case for the Urbana $\it{v_{14}}$ potential. In addition, an empirically-verified parabolic approximation of the interaction energy was utilized to perform an approximate study of the nuclear matter with neutron excess. Hence, at densities higher than about 0.3~fm$^{-3}$ and for proton-to-neutron density ratios close to the symmetric nuclear matter, the inclusion of TBF resulted in an extra attraction for the Argonne as compared to the Urbana $\it{v_{14}}$ potential.

We study two-phase displacement via the steady compression of an air reservoir connected to an oil-filled capillary tube. Our experiments and modelling reveal complex displacement dynamics depending on compression rate and reservoir volume that, for large reservoirs, depend on a single dimensionless compressibility number. We identify two distinct displacement regimes, separated by a critical value of the compressibility number. While the subcritical regime exhibits quasi-steady displacement after an initial transient, the supercritical regime exhibits burst-like expulsion.

We describe the use of explicit isogenies to translate instances of the Discrete Logarithm Problem (DLP) from Jacobians of hyperelliptic genus 3 curves to Jacobians of non-hyperelliptic genus 3 curves, where they are vulnerable to faster index calculus attacks. We provide explicit formulae for isogenies with kernel isomorphic to $(\ZZ/2\ZZ)^3$ (over an algebraic closure of the base field) for any hyperelliptic genus 3 curve over a field of characteristic not 2 or 3. These isogenies are rational for a positive fraction of all hyperelliptic genus 3 curves defined over a finite field of characteristic $p > 3$. Subject to reasonable assumptions, our constructions give an explicit and efficient reduction of instances of the DLP from hyperelliptic to non-hyperelliptic Jacobians for around 18.57% of all hyperelliptic genus 3 curves over a given finite field. We conclude with a discussion on extending these ideas to isogenies with more general kernels. A condensed version of this work appeared in the proceedings of the EUROCRYPT 2008 conference.

We revisit the static potential for the $Q Q \bar Q \bar Q$ system using SU(3) lattice simulations, studying both the colour singlets groundstate and first excited state. We consider geometries where the two static quarks and the two anti-quarks are at the corners of rectangles of different sizes. We analyse the transition between a tetraquark system and a two meson system with a two by two correlator matrix. We compare the potentials computed with quenched QCD and with dynamical quarks. We also compare our simulations with the results of previous studies and analyze quantitatively fits of our results with anzatse inspired in the string flip-flop model and in its possible colour excitations.

We present the results of our investigation on the phenomenon of mass segregation in young star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds. HST/WFPC2 observations on NGC 1818, NGC 2004 & NGC 2100 in the Large Magellanic Cloud and NGC 330 in the Small Magellanic Cloud have been used for the application of diagnostic tools for mass segregation: i) the radial density profiles of the clusters for various mass groups and ii) their mass functions (MFs) at various radii around their centres. All four clusters are found to be mass segregated, but each one in a different manner. Specifically not all the clusters in the sample show the same dependence of their density profiles on the selected magnitude range, with NGC 1818 giving evidence of a strong such relation and NGC 330 showing only a hint of the phenomenon. NGC 2004 did not also show any significant signature of mass segregation in its density profiles. The MFs radial dependence provides clear proof of the phenomenon for NGC 1818, NGC 2100 and NGC 2004, while for NGC 330 it gives only indications. An investigation on the constraints introduced by the application of both diagnostic tools is presented. We also discuss the problems related to the construction of a reliable MF for a cluster and their impact on the investigation of the phenomenon of mass segregation. We find that the MFs of these clusters as they were constructed with two methods, are comparable to Salpeter's IMF. A discussion is given on the dynamical status of the clusters and a test is applied on the equipartition among several mass groups in them. Both showed that the observed mass segregation in the clusters is of primordial nature.

Absorption cells filled with diatomic iodine are frequently employed as wavelength reference for high-precision stellar radial velocity determination due their long-term stability and low cost. Despite their wide-spread usage in the community, there is little documentation on how to determine the ideal operating temperature of an individual cell. We have developed a new approach to measuring the effective molecular temperature inside a gas absorption cell and searching for effects detrimental to a high precision wavelength reference, utilizing the Boltzmann distribution of relative line depths within absorption bands of single vibrational transitions. With a high resolution Fourier transform spectrometer, we took a series of 632 spectra at temperatures between 23{\deg}C and 66{\deg}C. These spectra provide a sufficient basis to test the algorithm and demonstrate the stability and repeatability of the temperature determination via molecular lines on a single iodine absorption cell. The achievable radial velocity precision is found to be independent of the cell temperature and a detailed analysis shows a wavelength dependency, which originates in the resolving power of the spectrometer in use and the signal-to-noise ratio. Two effects were found to cause apparent absolute shifts in radial velocity, a temperature-induced shift of the order of 1 m/s/K and a more significant effect resulting in abrupt jumps of 50 m/s is determined to be caused by the temperature crossing the dew point of the molecular iodine.

Algorithmic Pluralism: A Structural Approach Towards Equal Opportunity

While the idea of equal opportunity enjoys a broad consensus, many disagree about what it means for opportunities to be equal. The algorithmic fairness community often relies on formal approaches to quantitatively determine if opportunities are allocated equally. A more structural approach put forth by Joseph Fishkin focuses on the wider network of decisions that determine which opportunities are allocated to whom. In this so-called opportunity structure, decision points represent bottlenecks that are often chained together so that the output of one decision is an input to the next. By evaluating the severity and legitimacy of these bottlenecks, Fishkin offers a qualitative framework to assess whether equal opportunity is infringed upon in a structural way. We adopt this structural viewpoint and use it to reframe many interdisciplinary discussions about equal opportunity in systems of algorithmic decision-making. Drawing on examples from education, healthcare, and criminal justice, we recommend prioritizing regulatory and design-based interventions that alleviate severe bottlenecks in order to help expand access to opportunities in a pluralistic way.

Acoustic analogues of black holes (dumb holes) are generated when a supersonic fluid flow entrains sound waves and forms a trapped region from which sound cannot escape. The surface of no return, the acoustic horizon, is qualitatively very similar to the event horizon of a general relativity black hole. In particular Hawking radiation (a thermal bath of phonons with temperature proportional to the ``surface gravity'') is expected to occur. In this note we consider quasi-one-dimensional supersonic flow of a Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) in a Laval nozzle (converging-diverging nozzle), with a view to finding which experimental settings could magnify this effect and provide an observable signal. We identify an experimentally plausible configuration with a Hawking temperature of order 70 n K; to be contrasted with a condensation temperature of the order of 90 n K.

We present a study of the polarization properties of emission lines from single InGaN/GaN quantum dots (QDs). The QDs, formed by spinodal decomposition within ultra-thin InGaN quantum wells, are investigated using single-QD cathodoluminescence (CL). The emission lines exhibit a systematic linear polarization in the orthogonal crystal directions [1 1 -2 0] and [-1 1 0 0]--a symmetry that is non-native to hexagonal crystals. Eight-band k.p calculations reveal a mechanism that can explain the observed polarizations: The character of the hole(s) in an excitonic complex determines the polarization direction of the respective emission if the QD is slightly elongated. Transitions involving A-band holes are polarized parallel to the elongation; transitions involving B-type holes are polarized in the orthogonal direction. The energetic separation of both hole states is smaller than 10 meV. The mechanism leading to the linear polarizations is not restricted to InGaN QDs, but should occur in other wurtzite-nitride QDs and in materials with similar valence band structure.

Although there has been much interest in estimating divergence and admixture from genomic data, it has proven difficult to distinguish gene flow after divergence from alternative histories involving structure in the ancestral population. The lack of a formal test to distinguish these scenarios has sparked recent controversy about the possibility of interbreeding between Neandertals and modern humans in Eurasia. We derive the probability of mutational configurations in non-recombining sequence blocks under alternative histories of divergence with admixture and ancestral structure. Dividing the genome into short blocks makes it possible to compute maximum likelihood estimates of parameters under both models. We apply this method to triplets of human Neandertal genomes and quantify the relative support for models of long-term population structure in the ancestral African popuation and admixture from Neandertals into Eurasian populations after their expansion out of Africa. Our analysis allows us -- for the first time -- to formally reject a history of ancestral population structure and instead reveals strong support for admixture from Neandertals into Eurasian populations at a higher rate (3.4%-7.9%) than suggested previously.

We report temporal changes in Raman-scattering spectra of detwinned YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ single crystals under exposure to red laser light polarized along the crystallographic $a$-axis. A recent publication by Bakr et al. (Phys. Rev. B 88 214517 (2013)) identified new Raman-active modes that appear upon cooling below $T \sim 200$ K, and attributed these modes to charge ordering phenomena observed in x-ray scattering and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments on the same materials. Here we report that the intensities of these modes depend not only on temperature and oxygen content, but also on the cumulative photon dose absorbed by the YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ samples. The light-induced changes in the Raman spectra exhibit a stretched-exponential time dependence, with a characteristic time that increases strongly upon cooling. They also depend strongly on doping and are most pronounced for $x \sim 0.6$. In fully illuminated samples, the mode intensities exhibit a monotonic temperature dependence indicative of a second-order phase transition. The findings indicate a metastable state generated by light-induced rearrangement of the oxygen dopants. We hypothesize that the new Raman phonons are associated with a three-dimensional charge-ordered state induced by light illumination, analogous to a state that was recently observed by resonant x-ray scattering in oxygen-disordered YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ films.

An accurate objective speech intelligibility prediction algorithms is of great interest for many applications such as speech enhancement for hearing aids. Most algorithms measures the signal-to-noise ratios or correlations between the acoustic features of clean reference signals and degraded signals. However, these hand-picked acoustic features are usually not explicitly correlated with recognition. Meanwhile, deep neural network (DNN) based automatic speech recogniser (ASR) is approaching human performance in some speech recognition tasks. This work leverages the hidden representations from DNN-based ASR as features for speech intelligibility prediction in hearing-impaired listeners. The experiments based on a hearing aid intelligibility database show that the proposed method could make better prediction than a widely used short-time objective intelligibility (STOI) based binaural measure.

On Encoding LF in a Predicate Logic over Simply-Typed Lambda Terms

Felty and Miller have described what they claim to be a faithful encoding of the dependently typed lambda calculus LF in the logic of hereditary Harrop formulas, a sublogic of an intuitionistic variant of Church's Simple Theory of Types. Their encoding is based roughly on translating object expressions in LF into terms in a simply typed lambda calculus by erasing dependencies in typing and then recapturing the erased dependencies through the use of predicates. Unfortunately, this idea does not quite work. In particular, we provide a counterexample to the claim that the described encoding is faithful. The underlying reason for the falsity of the claim is that the mapping from dependently typed lambda terms to simply typed ones is not one-to-one and hence the inverse transformation is ambiguous. This observation has a broad implication for other related encodings.

Future precision measurements of Higgs boson decays will determine the branching fraction for the decay into two photons with a precision at the one percent level. To fully exploit such measurements, equally precise theoretical predictions need to be available. To this end we compute four-loop QCD corrections in the large top quark mass expansion to the Higgs boson--photon form factor, which enter the two-photon decay width at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. Furthermore we obtain corrections to the two-photon decay width stemming from the emission of additional gluons, which contribute for the first time at next-to-next-to-leading order. Finally, we combine our results with other available perturbative corrections and estimate the residual uncertainty due to missing higher-order contributions.

With the recent discoveries of terrestrial planets around active M-dwarfs, destruction processes masking the possible presence of life are receiving increased attention in the exoplanet community. We investigate potential biosignatures of planets having Earth-like (N$_2$-O$_2$) atmospheres orbiting in the habitable zone of the M-dwarf star AD Leo. These are bombarded by high energetic particles which can create showers of secondary particles at the surface. We apply our cloud-free 1D climate-chemistry model to study the influence of key particle shower parameters and chemical efficiencies of NOx and HOx production from cosmic rays. We determine the effect of stellar radiation and cosmic rays upon atmospheric composition, temperature, and spectral appearance. Despite strong stratospheric O$_3$ destruction by cosmic rays, smog O$_3$ can significantly build up in the lower atmosphere of our modeled planet around AD Leo related to low stellar UVB. N$_2$O abundances decrease with increasing flaring energies but a sink reaction for N$_2$O with excited oxygen becomes weaker, stabilizing its abundance. CH$_4$ is removed mainly by Cl in the upper atmosphere for strong flaring cases and not via hydroxyl as is otherwise usually the case. Cosmic rays weaken the role of CH$_4$ in heating the middle atmosphere so that H$_2$O absorption becomes more important. We additionally underline the importance of HNO$_3$ as a possible marker for strong stellar particle showers. In a nutshell, uncertainty in NOx and HOx production from cosmic rays significantly influences biosignature abundances and spectral appearance.

In bilayer quantum Hall (BLQH) systems at $\nu$=2, three different kinds of ground states are expected to be realized, i.e. a spin polarized phase (spin phase), a pseudospin polarized phase (ppin phase) and a canted antiferromagnetic phase (C-phase). An SU(4) scheme gives a powerful tool to investigate BLQH systems which have not only the spin SU(2) but also the layer (pseudospin) SU(2) degrees of freedom. In this paper, we discuss an origin of the C-phase in the SU(4) context and investigate SU(4) coherent effects to it. We show peculiar operators in the SU(4) group which do not exist in SU$_{\text{spin}}$(2)$\otimes$SU$_{\text{ppin}}$(2) group play a key role to its realization. It is also pointed out that not only spins but also pseudospins are ``canted'' in the C-phase.

Aims. The synthesis of the cosmic X-ray background (CXB) requires a large population of Compton-thick active galactic nuclei that have not been detected so far. We probe whether bright infrared galaxies could harbor a population of Compton-thick nuclei and if they could contribute significantly. Methods. We analyzed 112 Msec of INTEGRAL observations obtained on 613 galaxies from the IRAS Revised Bright Galaxy Sample. We derived the average hard X-ray (18-80 keV) emission of Seyfert and various non Seyfert galaxy subsamples to estimate their relative contribution to the locally emitted CXB. Results. The Seyfert 1 & 2 are detected at hard X-rays. None of the other galaxy subsamples were detected. ULIRGs are at least 5 times under-luminous at hard X-rays when compared to Seyferts. The upper limit obtained for the average non Seyfert galaxies is as low as 7E-13 erg/s cm2. On average, these galaxies do not contain active nuclei brighter than 10E41 erg/s at hard X-rays. The total hard X-ray flux detected from the sample is 4.9E-9 erg/s cm2 (about 1% of the CXB), and 64% of this originates in absorbed active nuclei. Local non-Seyfert galaxies contribute for less than 7% and do not harbor the Compton-thick nuclei assumed to synthesize the locally emitted CXB.

Photonic lanterns are an important enabling technology for astrophotonics with a wide range of potential applications including fibre Bragg grating OH suppression, integrated photonic spectrographs and fibre scramblers for high resolution spectroscopy. The behaviour of photonic lanterns differs in several important respects from the conventional fibre systems more frequently used in astronomical instruments and a detailed understanding of this behaviour is required in order to make the most effective use of this promising technology. To this end we have undertaken a laboratory study of photonic lanterns with the aim of developing an empirical model for the mapping from input to output illumination distributions. We have measured overall transmission and near field output light distributions as a function of input angle of incidence for photonic lanterns with between 19 and 61 cores. We present the results of this work, highlight the key differences between photonic lanterns and conventional fibres, and illustrate the implications for instrument design via a case study, the design of the PRAXIS spectrograph. The empirical photonic lantern model was incorporated into an end-to-end PRAXIS performance model which was used to optimise the design parameters of the instrument. We describe the methods used and the resulting conclusions. The details of photonic lantern behaviour proved particularly important in selecting the optimum on sky field of view per fibre and in modelling of the instrument thermal background.

We experimentally demonstrated entanglement extraction scheme by using photons at the telecommunication band for optical-fiber-based quantum communications. We generated two pairs of non-degenerate polarization entangled photons at 780~nm and 1551~nm by spontaneous parametric down-conversion and distributed the two photons at 1551~nm through a collective phase damping channel which gives the same amount of random phase shift on the two photons. Through local operation and classical communication, we extracted an entangled photon pair from two phase-disturbed photon pairs. An observed fidelity of the extracted photon pair to a maximally entangled photon pair was 0.73 $\pm$ 0.07 which clearly shows the recovery of entanglement.

Motivated by the gamma-ray excess observed from the region surrounding the Galactic Center, we explore particle dark matter models that could potentially account for the spectrum and normalization of this signal. Taking a model-independent approach, we consider an exhaustive list of tree-level diagrams for dark matter annihilation, and determine which could account for the observed gamma-ray emission while simultaneously predicting a thermal relic abundance equal to the measured cosmological dark matter density. We identify a wide variety of models that can meet these criteria without conflicting with existing constraints from direct detection experiments or the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The prospects for detection in near future dark matter experiments and/or the upcoming 14 TeV LHC appear quite promising.

In 1980, White conjectured that the toric ideal associated to a matroid is generated by binomials corresponding to a symmetric exchange. In this paper, we prove that classes of matroids for which the toric ideal is generated by quadrics and that has quadratic Gr\"obner bases, are closed under series and parallel extensions, series and parallel connections, and 2-sums.

The equations of evolutionary change by natural selection are commonly expressed in statistical terms. Fisher's fundamental theorem emphasizes the variance in fitness. Quantitative genetics expresses selection with covariances and regressions. Population genetic equations depend on genetic variances. How can we read those statistical expressions with respect to the meaning of natural selection? One possibility is to relate the statistical expressions to the amount of information that populations accumulate by selection. However, the connection between selection and information theory has never been compelling. Here, I show the correct relations between statistical expressions for selection and information theory expressions for selection. Those relations link selection to the fundamental concepts of entropy and information in the theories of physics, statistics, and communication. We can now read the equations of selection in terms of their natural meaning. Selection causes populations to accumulate information about the environment.

In this work we study the short-range contributions that induce effective lepton number violating (LNV) interactions. We obtain a full set of constraints on the effective short-range couplings from a large variety of low-energy $|\Delta L|= 2$ processes of pseudoscalar mesons $K, D, D_s, B$, and $\tau$-lepton. These constraints provide complementary and additional information to the one obtained from the neutrinoless double-$\beta$ ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay. As expected, the bounds on electron-electron short-range couplings are the only ones that are strongly constrained by the $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay. Although weaker, LNV effective couplings with different flavours are not accessible to $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay and these can be probe by the $|\Delta L|= 2$ processes in consideration.

Spectral extremal problems for hypergraphs

In this paper we consider spectral extremal problems for hypergraphs. We give two general criteria under which such results may be deduced from `strong stability' forms of the corresponding (pure) extremal results. These results hold for the \alpha-spectral radius defined using the \alpha-norm for any \alpha>1; the usual spectrum is the case \alpha=2. Our results imply that any hypergraph Tur\'{a}n problem which has the stability property and whose extremal construction satisfies some rather mild continuity assumptions admits a corresponding spectral result. A particular example is to determine the maximum \alpha-spectral radius of any 3-uniform hypergraph on n vertices not containing the Fano plane, when n is sufficiently large. Another is to determine the maximum \alpha-spectral radius of any graph on n vertices not containing some fixed colour-critical graph, when n is sufficiently large; this generalizes a theorem of Nikiforov who proved stronger results in the case \alpha=2. We also obtain an \alpha-spectral version of the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem on t-intersecting k-uniform hypergraphs.

This paper approaches the problem of understanding collective agency from a logical and game-theoretical perspective. Instead of collective intentionality, our analysis highlights the role of Pareto optimality. To facilitate the analysis, we propose a logic of preference and functional dependence by extending the logic of functional dependence. In this logic, we can express Pareto optimality and thus reason about collective agency.

Zilber's Exponential Algebraic Closedness conjecture (also known as Zilber's Nullstellensatz) gives conditions under which a complex algebraic variety should intersect the graph of the exponential map of a semiabelian variety. We prove the special case of the conjecture where the variety has dominant projection to the domain of the exponential map, for abelian varieties and for algebraic tori. Furthermore, in the situation where the intersection is 0-dimensional, we exhibit structure in the intersection by parametrizing the sufficiently large points as the images of the period lattice under a (multivalued) analytic map. Our approach is complex geometric, in contrast to a real analytic proof given by Brownawell and Masser just for the case of algebraic tori.

Quantum critical points exist at zero temperature, yet, experimentally their influence seems to extend over a large part of the phase diagram of systems such as heavy-fermion compounds and high-temperature superconductors. Theoretically, however, it is generally not known over what range of parameters the physics is governed by the quantum critical point. We answer this question for the spin-density wave to fermi-liquid quantum critical point in the two-dimensional Hubbard model. This problem is in the $d=2,z=2$ universality class. We use the Two-Particle Self-Consistent approach, which is accurate from weak to intermediate coupling, and whose critical behavior is the same as for the self-consistent-renormalized approach of Moriya. Despite the presence of logarithmic corrections, numerical results demonstrate that quantum critical scaling for the static magnetic susceptibility can extend up to very high temperatures but that the commensurate to incommensurate crossover leads to deviations to scaling.

The Mittag-Leffler process $X=(X_t)_{t\ge 0}$ is introduced. This Markov process has the property that its marginal random variables $X_t$ are Mittag-Leffler distributed with parameter $e^{-t}$, $t\in [0,\infty)$, and the semigroup $(T_t)_{t\ge 0}$ of $X$ satisfies $T_tf(x)={\mathbb E}(f(x^{e^{-t}}X_t))$ for all $x\ge 0$ and all bounded measurable functions $f:[0,\infty)\to{\mathbb R}$. Further characteristics of the process $X$ are derived, for example an explicit formula for the joint moments of its finite dimensional distributions. The main result states that the block counting process of the Bolthausen-Sznitman $n$-coalescent, properly scaled, converges in the Skorohod topology to the Mittag-Leffler process $X$ as the sample size $n$ tends to infinity.

After birth setting up an effective immune system is a major challenge for all living organisms. In this paper we show that this process can be explored by using the age-specific infant death rate as a kind of sensor. This is made possible because, as shown by the authors in Berrut et al. (2016), between birth and a critical age t_c, for all mammals the death rate decreases with age as an hyperbolic function. For humans t_c is equal to 10 years. At some ages the hyperbolic fall displays spikes which, it is assumed, correspond to specific events in the organism's response to exogenous factors. One of these spikes occurs 10 days after birth and there is another at the age of about 300 days. It is shown that the first spike is related to viral infections whereas the second is related to bacterial diseases. By going back to former time periods during which infant mortality was much higher than currently, it is possible to get a magnified view of these peaks which in turn may give us useful information about how an organism adapts to new conditions. Apart from pathogens, the same methodology can be used to study the response to changes in other external conditions, e.g. supply of food, temperature or oxygen level.

Dynamic networks are structured interconnections of dynamical systems (modules) driven by external excitation and disturbance signals. In order to identify their dynamical properties and/or their topology consistently from measured data, we need to make sure that the network model set is identifiable. We introduce the notion of network identifiability, as a property of a parameterized model set, that ensures that different network models can be distinguished from each other when performing identification on the basis of measured data. Different from the classical notion of (parameter) identifiability, we focus on the distinction between network models in terms of their transfer functions. For a given structured model set with a pre-chosen topology, identifiability typically requires conditions on the presence and location of excitation signals, and on presence, location and correlation of disturbance signals. Because in a dynamic network, disturbances cannot always be considered to be of full-rank, the reduced-rank situation is also covered, meaning that the number of driving white noise processes can be strictly less than the number of disturbance variables.

We consider theoretically the energy loss of electrons scattered to high angles when assuming that the primary beam can be limited to a single atom. We discuss the possibility of identifying the isotopes of light elements and of extracting information about phonons in this signal. The energy loss is related to the mass of the much heavier nucleus, and is spread out due to atomic vibrations. Importantly, while the width of the broadening is much larger than the energy separation of isotopes, only the shift in the peak positions must be detected if the beam is limited to a single atom. We conclude that the experimental case will be challenging but is not excluded by the physical principles as far as considered here. Moreover, the initial experiments demonstrate the separation of gold and carbon based on a signal that is related to their mass, rather than their atomic number.

Bilevel hyperparameter optimization for support vector classification: theoretical analysis and a solution method

Support vector classification (SVC) is a classical and well-performed learning method for classification problems. A regularization parameter, which significantly affects the classification performance, has to be chosen and this is usually done by the cross-validation procedure. In this paper, we reformulate the hyperparameter selection problem for support vector classification as a bilevel optimization problem in which the upper-level problem minimizes the average number of misclassified data points over all the cross-validation folds, and the lower-level problems are the l1-loss SVC problems, with each one for each fold in T-fold cross-validation. The resulting bilevel optimization model is then converted to a mathematical program with equilibrium constraints (MPEC). To solve this MPEC, we propose a global relaxation cross-validation algorithm (GR-CV) based on the well-know Sholtes-type global relaxation method (GRM). It is proven to converge to a C-stationary point. Moreover, we prove that the MPEC-tailored version of the Mangasarian-Fromovitz constraint qualification (MFCQ), which is a key property to guarantee the convergence of the GRM, automatically holds at each feasible point of this MPEC. Extensive numerical results verify the efficiency of the proposed approach. In particular, compared with other methods, our algorithm enjoys superior generalization performance over almost all the data sets used in this paper.

We present Herschel-PACS observations of rest-frame mid-infrared and far-infrared spectral line emissions from two lensed, ultra-luminous infrared galaxies at high redshift: MIPS J142824.0+352619 (MIPS J1428), a starburst-dominated system at z = 1.3, and IRAS F10214+4724 (F10214), a source at z = 2.3 hosting both star-formation and a luminous AGN. We have detected [OI]63 micron and [OIII]52 micron in MIPS J1428, and tentatively [OIII]52 micron in F10214. Together with the recent ZEUS-CSO [CII]158 micron detection in MIPS J1428 we can for the first time combine [OI], [CII] and far-IR (FIR) continuum measurements for photo-dissociation (PDR) modeling of an ultra-luminous (L_IR > 10^12 L_sun) star forming galaxy at the peak epoch of cosmic star formation. We find that MIPS J1428, contrary to average local ULIRGs, does not show a deficit in [OI] relative to FIR. The combination of far-UV flux G_0 and gas density n (derived from the PDR models), as well as the star formation efficiency (derived from CO and FIR) is similar to normal or starburst galaxies, despite the high infrared luminosity of this system. In contrast, F10214 has stringent upper limits on [OIV] and [SIII], and an [OIII]/FIR ratio at least an order of magnitude lower than local starbursts or AGN, similar to local ULIRGs.

We present both binarity and pulsation of KIC 6220497 from the {\it Kepler} observations. The light curve synthesis shows that the eclipsing system is a semi-detached Algol with parameters of $q$ = 0.243$\pm$0.001, $i$ = 77.3$\pm$0.3 deg, and $\Delta T$ = 3,372$\pm$58 K, in which the detached primary component fills its Roche lobe by $\sim$87\%. A multiple frequency analysis of the eclipse-subtracted light residuals reveals 33 frequencies in the range of 0.75$-$20.22 d$^{-1}$ with amplitudes between 0.27 and 4.56 mmag. Among these, four are pulsation frequencies in fundamental ($f_1$, $f_5$) and $p$ ($f_2$, $f_7$) modes, and six are orbital frequency ($f_8$, $f_{31}$) and its harmonics ($f_6$, $f_{11}$, $f_{20}$, $f_{24}$), which can be attributed to tidally excited modes. For the pulsation frequencies, the pulsation constants of 0.16$-$0.33 d and the period ratios of $P_{\rm pul}/P_{\rm orb}$ = 0.042$-$0.089 indicate that the primary component is a $\delta$ Sct pulsating star and, thus, KIC 6220497 is an oscillating eclipsing Algol (oEA) star. The dominant pulsation period of 0.1174051$\pm$0.0000004 d is significantly longer than that expected from empirical relations that link the pulsation period with the orbital period. The surface gravity of $\log g_1$ = 3.78$\pm$0.03 is clearly smaller than those of the other oEA stars with similar orbital periods. The pulsation period and the surface gravity of the pulsating primary demonstrate that KIC 6220497 would be the more evolved EB, compared with normal oEA stars.

We use techniques of Malliavin calculus to study the convergence in law of a family of generalized Rosenblatt processes $Z_\gamma$ with kernels defined by parameters $\gamma$ taking values in a tetrahedral region $\Delta$ of $\RR^q$. We prove that, as $\gamma$ converges to a face of $\Delta$, the process $Z_\gamma$ converges to a compound Gaussian distribution with random variance given by the square of a Rosenblatt process of one lower rank. The convergence in law is shown to be stable. This work generalizes a previous result of Bai and Taqqu, who proved the result in the case $q=2$ and without stability.

Until recently Jeffrey Bub and Itamar Pitowsky, in the framework of an information theoretic view of quantum mechanics, claimed first that to the measurement problem in its ordinary formulation there correspond in effect two measurement problems (simply called the big and the small measurement problems), with a different degree of relevance and, second, that the analysis of a quantum measurement is a problem only if other assumptions, taken by Pitowsky and Bub to be unnecessary 'dogmas', are assumed. Here I critically discuss this unconventional stance on the measurement problem and argue that the Bub and Pitowsky arguments are inconclusive, mainly because they rely on an unwarranted extension to the quantum realm of a distinction concerning the foundations of special relativity which is in itself rather controversial.

We introduce and explore an interacting integrable cellular automaton, the Fredkin staircase, that lies outside the existing classification of such automata, and has a structure that seems to lie beyond that of any existing Bethe-solvable model. The Fredkin staircase has two families of ballistically propagating quasiparticles, each with infinitely many species. Despite the presence of ballistic quasiparticles, charge transport is diffusive in the d.c. limit, albeit with a highly non-gaussian dynamic structure factor. Remarkably, this model exhibits persistent temporal oscillations of the current, leading to a delta-function singularity (Drude peak) in the a.c. conductivity at nonzero frequency. We analytically construct an extensive set of operators that anticommute with the time-evolution operator; the existence of these operators both demonstrates the integrability of the model and allows us to lower-bound the weight of this finite-frequency singularity.

The $^{25}$F($5/2^+) (-1p) ^{24}$O reaction was studied at the NSCL using the S800 spectrometer. The experimental spectroscopic factor for the ground-state to ground-state transition indicates a substantial depletion of the proton $d_{5/2}$ strength compared to shell-model expectations. Our result supports the findings reported by Tang \textit{et al.}, from their study of the $(p,2p)$ reaction at RIBF. The overlap between the $^{25}$F and $^{24}$O ground-states is considerably less than anticipated if $^{24}$O acted as a robust and rigid doubly-magic core in $^{25}$F. We interpret the results within the framework of the Particle-Vibration Coupling (PVC) of a $d_{5/2}$ proton coupled to a quadrupole phonon of an effective core. This approach provides a good description of the experimental data by requiring an effective $^{24}$O* core with a phonon energy of $\hbar\omega_2$= 3.2 MeV, and a $B(E2) ~ 2.7$ W.u., softer and more collective than a bare $^{24}$O. Both the Nilsson deformed mean field and the PVC models appear to capture the properties of the effective core of $^{25}$F, suggesting that the additional proton tends to polarize the free, doubly magic $^{24}$O in such a way that it becomes either slightly deformed or a quadrupole vibrator.

We present the crystal structure and low temperature electronic transport properties of the intermetallic commonly known as BeB_2. In contrast to the much simpler AlB_2-type structure of the 39K superconductor MgB_2, BeB_2 forms a complex structure type that is nearly unique in nature. The structure has 110.5 atoms per unit cell and a stoichiometry BeB_{2.75}. Polycrystalline Be(^{10.8}B)_{2.75} is superconducting below T_c=0.72K with a critical magnetic field H_{c2}=0.175T. Isotopically pure ^{10.0}B samples of have an enhanced$T_c=0.79K, consistent with a BCS isotope effect. Hall effect measurements suggest that the material is intrinsically compensated.

We report a systematic study on the influence of antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic phases of Eu^2+ moments on the superconducting phase upon doping the As site by isovalent P, which acts as chemical pressure on EuFe_2As_2. Bulk superconductivity with transition temperatures of 22 K and 28 K are observed for x=0.16 and 0.20 samples respectively. The Eu ions order antiferromagnetically for x<=0.13, while a crossover is observed for x>=0.22 whereupon the Eu ions order ferromagnetically. Density functional theory based calculations reproduce the observed experimental findings consistently. We discuss in detail the coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism in a tiny region of the phase space and comment on the competition of ferromagnetism and superconductivity in the title compound.

We present an easily implemented, fast, and accurate method for approximating extreme quantiles of compound loss distributions (frequency+severity) as are commonly used in insurance and operational risk capital models. The Interpolated Single Loss Approximation (ISLA) of Opdyke (2014) is based on the widely used Single Loss Approximation (SLA) of Degen (2010) and maintains two important advantages over its competitors: first, ISLA correctly accounts for a discontinuity in SLA that otherwise can systematically and notably bias the quantile (capital) approximation under conditions of both finite and infinite mean. Secondly, because it is based on a closed-form approximation, ISLA maintains the notable speed advantages of SLA over other methods requiring algorithmic looping (e.g. fast Fourier transform or Panjer recursion). Speed is important when simulating many quantile (capital) estimates, as is so often required in practice, and essential when simulations of simulations are needed (e.g. some power studies). The modified ISLA (MISLA) presented herein increases the range of application across the severity distributions most commonly used in these settings, and it is tested against extensive Monte Carlo simulation (one billion years' worth of losses) and the best competing method (the perturbative expansion (PE2) of Hernandez et al., 2014) using twelve heavy-tailed severity distributions, some of which are truncated. MISLA is shown to be comparable to PE2 in terms of both speed and accuracy, and it is arguably more straightforward to implement for the majority of Advanced Measurement Approaches (AMA) banks that are already using SLA (and failing to take into account its biasing discontinuity).

Elementary Interactions An Approach in Decision Tool Development

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) is an established methodology to support decision making of multi-objective problems. For conducting a MCDA, in most cases a set of objectives (SOO) is required which consists of a hierarchical structure with objectives, criteria and indicators. The development of a SOO may require high organizational effort. This article introduces elementary interactions as a key paradigm for the development of a SOO. Elementary interactions are self-contained information requests that can be answered with little cognitive effort, which are made and processed with the help of a web platform. Each elementary interaction contributes to the stepwise development of a SOO. Based on the hypothesis that a SOO can be developed exclusively with elementary interactions, a platform concept is described. Essential components of the platform are a Model Aggregator, an Elementary Interaction Stream Generator, a Participant Manager and a Discussion Forum. The platform concept has been evaluated in a pilot study using a web-based prototype. In summary, the proposed concept demonstrates the potential to advance the development of sets of objectives for MCDA applications: (1) The platform concept does not restrict the application domain, (2) it is intended to work with little administration efforts, (3) it lowers the organizational effort for developing a SOO. (3) it supports the further development of an existing SOO in the event of significant changes in external conditions. (4) The development process of the SOO can be recorded by the platform and thus becomes retraceable. The reproducibility may have a positive effect on the spread of MCDA applications. The traceability and the use of elementary interactions make the platform appear to be a suitable medium for Citizen Science-based approaches to the development of MCDA applications.

We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the differentiability of the distance function generated by a nonempty closed set K in a real normed linear space X under a proximinality condition on K. We do not assume the uniform differentiability constraints on the norm of the space as in Giles [16]. Hence, our result advances that of Giles [16]. We prove that the proximinal condition of Giles [16] is true for almost suns. The proximinal condition ensures convexity of an almost sun in some class of strongly smooth spaces under a differentiability condition of the distance function. A necessary and sufficient condition is obtained for the convexity of Chebyshev sets in Banach spaces with rotund dual.

We argue that given holographic CFT$_1$ in some state with a dual spacetime geometry M, and given some other holographic CFT$_2$, we can find states of CFT$_2$ whose dual geometries closely approximate arbitrarily large causal patches of M, provided that CFT$_1$ and CFT$_2$ can be non-trivially coupled at an interface. Our CFT$_2$ states are "dressed up as" states of CFT$_1$: they are obtained from the original CFT$_1$ state by a regularized quench operator defined using a Euclidean path-integral with an interface CFT$_1$ CFT$_2$ and CFT$_1$. Our results are consistent with the idea that the precise microscopic degrees of freedom and Hamiltonian of a holographic CFT are only important in fixing the asymptotic behavior of a dual spacetime, while the interior spacetime of a region spacelike separated from a boundary time slice is determined by more universal properties (such as entanglement structure) of the quantum state at this time slice. Our picture requires that low-energy gravitational theories related to CFTs that can be non-trivially coupled at an interface are part of the same non-perturbative theory of quantum gravity.

The Hamilton operator of an open quantum system is non-Hermitian. Its eigenvalues are, generally, complex and provide not only the energies but also the lifetimes of the states of the system. The states may couple via the common environment of scattering wavefunctions into which the system is embedded. This causes an {\it external mixing} (EM) of the states. Mathematically, EM is related to the existence of singular (the so-called exceptional) points (EPs). The eigenfunctions of a non-Hermitian operator are biorthogonal, in contrast to the orthogonal eigenfunctions of a Hermitian operator. A quantitative measure for the ratio between biorthogonality and orthogonality is the phase rigidity of the wavefunctions. At and near an EP, the phase rigidity takes its minimum value. The lifetimes of two nearby eigenstates of a quantum system bifurcate under the influence of an EP. At the parameter value of maximum width bifurcation, the phase rigidity approaches the value one, meaning that the two eigenfunctions become orthogonal. However, the eigenfunctions are externally mixed at this parameter value. The S-matrix and therewith the cross section do contain, in the one-channel case, almost no information on the EM of the states. The situation is completely different in the case with two (or more) channels where the resonance structure is strongly influenced by the EM of the states and interesting features of non-Hermitian quantum physics are revealed. We provide numerical results for two and three nearby eigenstates of a non-Hermitian Hamilton operator which are embedded in one common continuum and influenced by two adjoining EPs. The results are discussed. They are of interest for an experimental test of the non-Hermitian quantum physics as well as for applications.

We study lifting properties for full product C*-algebras with amalgamation over ${\mathbb C}1$ and give new proofs for some results of Kirchberg and Pisier. We extend the result of Choi on the quasidiagonality of $C^*({\mathbb F}_n)$, proving that the free product with amalgamation over ${\mathbb C}1$ of a family of unital quasidiagonal C*-algebras is quasidiagonal.

Superconductor electronics (SCE) promise computer systems with orders of magnitude higher speeds and lower energy consumption than their complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) counterparts. At the same time, the scalability and resource utilization of superconducting systems are major concerns. Some of these concerns come from device-level challenges and the gap between SCE and CMOS technology nodes, and others come from the way Josephson Junctions (JJs) are used. Towards this end, we notice that a considerable fraction of hardware resources are not involved in logic operations, but rather are used for fan-out and buffering purposes. In this paper, we ask if there is a way to reduce these overheads, propose the use of JJs at the cell boundaries to increase the number of outputs that a single stage can drive, and establish a set of rules to discretize critical currents in a way that is conducive to this assignment. Finally, we explore the design trade-offs that the presented approach opens up and demonstrate its promise through detailed analog simulations and modeling analyses. Our experiments indicate that the introduced method leads to a 48% savings in the JJ count for a tree with a fan-out of 1024, as well as an average of 43% of the JJ count for signal splitting and 32% for clock splitting in ISCAS'85 benchmarks.

Disentangled Face Attribute Editing via Instance-Aware Latent Space Search

Recent works have shown that a rich set of semantic directions exist in the latent space of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), which enables various facial attribute editing applications. However, existing methods may suffer poor attribute variation disentanglement, leading to unwanted change of other attributes when altering the desired one. The semantic directions used by existing methods are at attribute level, which are difficult to model complex attribute correlations, especially in the presence of attribute distribution bias in GAN's training set. In this paper, we propose a novel framework (IALS) that performs Instance-Aware Latent-Space Search to find semantic directions for disentangled attribute editing. The instance information is injected by leveraging the supervision from a set of attribute classifiers evaluated on the input images. We further propose a Disentanglement-Transformation (DT) metric to quantify the attribute transformation and disentanglement efficacy and find the optimal control factor between attribute-level and instance-specific directions based on it. Experimental results on both GAN-generated and real-world images collectively show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods proposed recently by a wide margin. Code is available at https://github.com/yxuhan/IALS.

We study non-equilibrium quantum dynamics of the single-component scalar field theory in 1+1 space-time dimensions on the basis of the Kadanoff-Baym equation including the next-to-leading-order (NLO) skeleton diagrams. As an extension of the non-relativistic case, we derive relativistic kinetic entropy at the first order in the gradient expansion of the Kadanoff-Baym equations. The derived entropy satisfies the H theorem. Next we perform numerical simulations in spatially homogeneous configurations to investigate thermalization properties of the system by evaluating the system entropy. We find that at later times the kinetic entropy increases approaching the equilibrium value, although the limited time interval in the early stage invalidates the use of it.

Investigating the main determinants of the mechanical performance of metals is not a simple task. Already known physical inspired qualitative relations between 2D microstructure characteristics and 3D mechanical properties can act as the starting point of the investigation. Isotonic regression allows to take into account ordering relations and leads to more efficient and accurate results when the underlying assumptions actually hold. The main goal in this paper is to test order relations in a model inspired by a materials science application. The statistical estimation procedure is described considering three different scenarios according to the knowledge of the variances: known variance ratio, completely unknown variances, variances under order restrictions. New likelihood ratio tests are developed in the last two cases. Both parametric and non-parametric bootstrap approaches are developed for finding the distribution of the test statistics under the null hypothesis. Finally an application on the relation between Geometrically Necessary Dislocations and number of observed microstructure precipitations is shown.

One of the remaining challenges within the standard model is to gain a good understanding of QCD in the non-perturbative regime. A key step towards this aim is baryon spectroscopy, investigating the spectrum and the properties of baryon resonances. To gain access to resonances with small $\pi N$ partial width, photoproduction experiments provide essential information. Partial wave analyses need to be performed to extract the contributing resonances. Here, a complete experiment is required to unambiguously determine the contributing amplitudes. This involves the measurement of carefully chosen single and double polarisation observables. In a joint endeavour by MAMI, ELSA, and Jefferson Laboratory, a new generation of experiments with polarised beams, polarised proton and neutron targets, and $4\pi$ particle detectors have been performed in recent years. Many results of unprecedented quality were recently published by all three experiments, and included by the various partial wave analysis groups in their analyses, leading to substantial improvements, e.g. a more precise determination of resonance parameters. An overview of recent results is given, with an emphasis on results from the CBELSA/TAPS experiment, and their impact on our understanding of the nucleon excitation spectrum is discussed.

Cofinite Graphs and Groupoids and their Profinite Completions

We define cofinite graphs and cofinite groupoids in a unified way that extends the notion of cofinite groups introduced by Hartley. The common underlying structure of all these objects is that they are directed graphs endowed with a certain type of uniform structure, that we call a cofinite uniformity. We begin by exploring the fundamental theory of cofinite directed graphs in full generality. The general theory turns out to be almost completely analogous to that of cofinite groups. For instance, every cofinite directed graph has a unique completion which is a com- pact cofinite direct graph. Moreover, compact cofinite directed graphs are precisely the profinite directed graphs, i.e., projective limits of finite discrete topological directed graphs. We then apply the general theory to directed graphs with additional structure such as graphs (in the sense of Serre) and groupoids, thus leading to the notions of cofinite graphs and cofinite groupoids. Cofinite groupoids with only finitely many identities behave much the same as cofinite groups, which are the same thing as cofinite groupoids with a single identity. However the situation for cofinite groupoids with infinitely many identities is more complicated.

We prove that the mapping class group of a Heegaard splitting with a distance of at least 3 is finite. However, we have constructed a counterexample with a distance of 2 that disproves this assertion. In addition, the fact that the mapping class group of a Heegaard splitting with a distance of at most 1 is infinite, when combined with our results, provides an answer to the question of the finiteness of mapping class groups as viewed from Heegaard distance.

Arrays of transmons have proven to be a viable medium for quantum information science and quantum simulations. Despite their widespread popularity as qubit arrays, there remains yet untapped potential beyond the two-level approximation or, equivalently, the hard-core boson model. With the higher excited levels included, coupled transmons naturally realize the attractive Bose-Hubbard model. The dynamics of the model has been difficult to study due to unfavorable scaling of the dimensionality of the Hilbert space with the system size. In this work, we present a framework for describing the effective unitary dynamics of highly-excited states of coupled transmons based on high-order degenerate perturbation theory. This allows us to describe various collective phenomena -- such as bosons stacked onto a single site behaving as a single particle, edge-localization, and effective longer-range interactions -- in a unified, compact and accurate manner. While our examples deal with one-dimensional chains of transmons for the sake of clarity, the theory can be readily applied to more general geometries.

Baryons in the large N limit of two-dimensional Gross-Neveu models are reconsidered. The time-dependent Dirac-Hartree-Fock approach is used to boost a baryon to any inertial frame and shown to yield the covariant energy-momentum relation. Momentum distributions are computed exactly in arbitrary frames and used to interpolate between the rest frame and the infinite momentum frame, where they are related to structure functions. Effects from the Dirac sea depend sensitively on the occupation fraction of the valence level and the bare fermion mass and do not vanish at infinite momentum. In the case of the kink baryon, they even lead to divergent quark and antiquark structure functions at x=0.
