In the example of the Schr\"odinger/KdV equation we treat the theory as equivalence of two concepts of Liouvillian integrability: quadrature integrability of linear differential equations with a parameter (spectral problem) and Liouville's integrability of finite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems (stationary KdV--equations). Three key objects in this field: new explicit $\Psi$-function, trace formula and the Jacobi problem provide a complete solution. The $\Theta$-function language is derivable from these objects and used for ultimate representation of a solution to the inversion problem. Relations with non-integrable equations are discussed also.

A new local world volume supersymmetric Lagrangian for the bosonic membrane is presented. The starting Lagrangian is the one constructed by Dolan and Tchrakian with vanishing cosmological constant, with quadratic and quartic derivative terms. Our Lagrangian differs from the one constructed by Lindstrom and Rocek in the fact that it is polynomial in the fields facilitating the quantization process. It is argued, rigorously, that if one wishes to construct polynomial actions without a curvature scalar term and, where supersymmetry is linearly realized in the space of physical fields, after the elimination of auxiliary fields, one must relinquish $S$ supersymmetry, altogether, and concentrate solely on the $Q$ supersymmetry associated with the superconformal algebra in three dimensions. A full $''Q+S''$ supersymmetry cannot be implemented in a linearly realized way satisfying all of the above-mentioned requirements, unless a non-polynomial action is chosen. PACS:04.65.+e, 04.20.Fy.

The evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) has increased the connection of personal devices, mainly taking into account the habits and behavior of their owners. These environments demand access control mechanisms to protect them against intruders, like Sybil attacks. that can compromise data privacy or disrupt the network operation. The Social IoT paradigm enables access control systems to aggregate community context and sociability information from devices to enhance robustness and security. This work introduces the ELECTRON mechanism to control access in IoT networks based on social trust between devices to protect the network from Sybil attackers. ELECTRON groups IoT devices into communities by their social similarity and evaluates their social trust, strengthening the reliability between legitimate devices and their resilience against the interaction of Sybil attackers. NS-3 Simulations show the ELECTRON performance under Sybil attacks on several IoT communities so that it has gotten to detect more than 90% of attackers in a scenario with 150 nodes into offices, schools, gyms, and~parks communities, and in other scenarios for same communities it achieved around of 90\% of detection. Furthermore, it provided high accuracy, over 90-95%, and false positive rates closer to zero.

We consider a nonlinear Robin problem driven by the $p$-Laplacian plus an indefinite potential. The reaction term is of arbitrary growth and only conditions near zero are imposed. Using critical point theory together with suitable truncation and perturbation techniques and comparison principles, we show that the problem admits a sequence of distinct smooth nodal solutions converging to zero in $C^1(\overline{\Omega})$.

Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) methods are used to approximate posterior distributions in models with unknown or computationally intractable likelihoods. Both the accuracy and computational efficiency of ABC depend on the choice of summary statistic, but outside of special cases where the optimal summary statistics are known, it is unclear which guiding principles can be used to construct effective summary statistics. In this paper we explore the possibility of automating the process of constructing summary statistics by training deep neural networks to predict the parameters from artificially generated data: the resulting summary statistics are approximately posterior means of the parameters. With minimal model-specific tuning, our method constructs summary statistics for the Ising model and the moving-average model, which match or exceed theoretically-motivated summary statistics in terms of the accuracies of the resulting posteriors.

We investigate a trivariate polynomial associated with rooted trees. It generalises a bivariate polynomial for rooted trees that was recently introduced by Liu. We show that this polynomial satisfies a deletion-contraction recursion and can be expressed as a sum over maximal antichains. Several combinatorial quantities can be obtained as special values, in particular the number of antichains, maximal antichains and cutsets. We prove that two of the three possible bivariate specialisations characterise trees uniquely up to isomorphism. One of these has already been established by Liu, the other is new. For the third specialisation, we construct non-isomorphic trees with the same associated polynomial. We finally find that our polynomial can be generalised in a natural way to a family of posets that we call $\mathcal{V}$-posets. These posets are obtained recursively by either disjoint unions or adding a greatest/least element to existing $\mathcal{V}$-posets.

The effect of long wavelength fluctuations on the Mode-Coupling-Theory (MCT) dynamical singularity at $T_c$ in the $\beta$ regime is studied by means of the standard field-theoretical procedure for a genuine second-order phase transition. The resulting perturbative loop expansion can be resummed leading to an extension of the MCT equation for the critical correlator with local random fluctuations of the separation parameter. The corresponding model explains both qualitatively and quantitatively why the MCT dynamical singularity is transformed into a crossover from relaxational to activated dynamics. Dynamical Heterogeneities emerge naturally as the ergodicity-restoring mechanism instead of {\it ad hoc} hopping processes.

Modelling host behavioral change in response to epidemics is important to describe disease dynamics and many previous studies proposed mathematical models describing it. Indeed, the epidemic of COVID-19 clearly demonstrated that people changed their activity in response to the epidemic, which subsequently modified the disease dynamics. To predict the behavioral change relevant to the disease dynamics, we need to know the epidemic situation (e.g., the number of reported cases) at the moment of decision to change behavior. However, it is difficult to identify the timing of decision-making. In this study, we analyzed travel accommodation reservation data in four prefectures of Japan to observe decision-making timings and how it responded to the changing epidemic situation during Japan's Coronavirus Disease 2019 (eight waves until February 2023). To this end, we defined 'mobility avoidance index' to indicate people's decision of mobility avoidance and quantified it using the time-series of the accommodation booking/cancellation data. Our analysis revealed semi-quantitative rules for day-to-day decision-making of human mobility under a given epidemic situation. We observed matches of the peak dates of the index and the number of reported cases. Additionally, we found that mobility avoidance index increased/decreased linearly with the logarithmic number of reported cases during the first epidemic wave. This pattern agrees with Weber-Fechner law in psychophysics. We also found that the slope of the mobility avoidance index against the change of the logarithmic number of reported cases were similar among the waves, while the intercept of that was much reduced as the first epidemic wave passed by. It suggests that the people's response became weakened after the first experience, as if the number of reported cases were multiplied by a constant small factor.

We investigate the different large $N$ phases of a generalized Gross-Witten-Wadia $U(N)$ matrix model. The deformation mimics the one-loop determinant of fermion matter with a particular coupling to gauge fields. In one version of the model, the GWW phase transition is smoothed out and it becomes a crossover. In another version, the phase transition occurs along a critical line in the two-dimensional parameter space spanned by the 't~Hooft coupling $\lambda$ and the Veneziano parameter $\tau$. We compute the expectation value of Wilson loops in both phases, showing that the transition is third-order. A calculation of the $\beta $ function shows the existence of an IR stable fixed point.

We show that for every $\eta > 0$ every sufficiently large $n$-vertex oriented graph D of minimum semidegree exceeding $(1 + \eta) k/2$ contains every balanced antidirected tree with $k$ edges and bounded maximum degree, if $k \ge \eta n$. In particular, this asymptotically confirms a conjecture of the first author for long antidirected paths. Further, we show that in the same setting, D contains every $k$-edge antidirected subdivision of a sufficiently small complete graph, if the paths of the subdivision that have length 1 or 2 span a forest. As a special case, we can find all antidirected cycles of length at most k. Finally, we address a conjecture of Addario-Berry, Havet, Linhares Sales, Reed and Thomass\'e for antidirected trees in digraphs. We show that this conjecture is asymptotically true in $n$-vertex oriented graphs for all balanced antidirected trees of bounded maximum degree and of size linear in $n$.

The topological vertex formalism for 5d $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauge theories is not only a convenient tool to compute the instanton partition function of these theories, but it is also accompanied by a nice algebraic structure that reveals various kinds of nice properties such as dualities and integrability of the underlying theories. The usual refined topological vertex formalism is derived for gauge theories with $A$-type quiver structure (and $A$-type gauge groups). In this article, we propose a construction with a web of vertex operators for all $ABCDEFG$-type and affine quivers by introducing several new vertices into the formalism, based on the reproducing of known instanton partition functions and qq-characters for these theories.

Quantum probabilities and violation of CHSH-inequality from classical random signals and threshold type properly calibrated detectors
Finally, the quantum measurement problem is solved, but by going beyond the standard quantum formalism, via theory of classical random fields interacting with threshold type detectors. In fact, this is surprising that the fundamental role of detectors in production of quantum statistics was practically neglected in works on quantum foundations

We present a purely wave model (based on classical random field) which reproduces quantum probabilities (given by the fundamental law of quantum mechanics, Born's rule) including probabilities for joint detection of a pair of quantum observables (e.g., spin or polarization projections). The crucial point of our approach is that the presence of detector's threshold and calibration procedure have to be treated not as simply experimental technicalities, but as the basic counteparts of the theoretical model. The presence of the background field (vacuum fluctuations) is also the key-element of our prequantum model. It is of the classical signal type and the methods of classical signal theory (including statistical radiophysics) are used for its development. We stress that our prequantum model is not objective, i.e., the values of observables (clicks of detectors) cannot be assigned in advance, i.e., before measurement. Hence, the dilemma, nonobjectivity or nonlocality, is resolved in favor of nonobjectivity (our model is local of the classical field type). In particular, we reproduce the probabilities for the EPR-experiment for photon polarization and, hence, violate CHSH inequality for classical random signals (measured by the threshold type and properly calibrated detectors acting in the presence of the background field).

We use the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) to perform a detailed study of the critical properties of the two dimensional Q state Potts model, including the magnetization and energy-density profiles, bulk and surface critical exponents and the Casimir amplitudes. We apply symmetry breaking boundary conditions to a $L \times \infty$ strip and diagonalize the corresponding transfer matrix for a series of moderately large systems ($L \le 64$) by the DMRG method. The numerically very accurate finite lattice results are then extrapolated by efficient sequence extrapolation techniques. The critical density profiles and the Casimir amplitudes are found to follow precisely the conformal predictions for Q=2 and 3. Similarly, the bulk and surface critical exponents of the models are in very good agreement with the conformal and exact values: their accuracy has reached or even exceeded the accuracy of other available numerical methods. For the Q=4 model both the profiles and the critical exponents show strong logarithmic corrections, which are also studied.

Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO) is a well known metaheuristic that has proven successful at solving Travelling Salesman Problems (TSP). However, ACO suffers from two issues; the first is that the technique has significant memory requirements for storing pheromone levels on edges between cities and second, the iterative probabilistic nature of choosing which city to visit next at every step is computationally expensive. This restricts ACO from solving larger TSP instances. This paper will present a methodology for deploying ACO on larger TSP instances by removing the high memory requirements, exploiting parallel CPU hardware and introducing a significant efficiency saving measure. The approach results in greater accuracy and speed. This enables the proposed ACO approach to tackle TSP instances of up to 200K cities within reasonable timescales using a single CPU. Speedups of as much as 1200 fold are achieved by the technique.

We examine the Standard Model under the electroweak symmetry group $U_{EW}(2)$ subject to the Lie algebra condition $\mathfrak{u}_{EW}(2)\not\cong \mathfrak{su}_{I}(2)\oplus \mathfrak{u}_{Y}(1)$. Physically, the condition ensures that all electroweak gauge bosons interact with each other prior to symmetry breaking. This represents a crucial shift in the identification of physical gauge bosons: Unlike the Standard Model which posits a change of Lie algebra basis induced by spontaneous symmetry breaking, here the basis is unaltered and $A,\,Z^0,\,W^\pm$ represent the physical bosons both before and after spontaneous symmetry breaking. Our choice of $\mathfrak{u}_{EW}(2)$ requires some modification of the matter field representation of the Standard Model. For $U_{EW}(2)$, there are two pertinent representations ${\mathbf{2}}$ and its $U(2)$-conjugate ${\mathbf{2^c}}$ related by a global gauge transformation that squares to minus the identity. The product group structure calls for strong-electroweak degrees of freedom in the $(\mathbf{3},\mathbf{2})$ and the $(\mathbf{3},{\mathbf{2^c}})$ of $SU_C(3)\times U_{EW}(2)$ that possess integer electric charge just like leptons. These degrees of freedom play the role of quarks, and they lead to a modified Lagrangian that nevertheless reproduces transition rates and cross sections equivalent to the Standard Model. The close resemblance between quark and lepton electroweak doublets suggests a mechanism for a speculative phase transition between quarks and leptons that stems from the product structure of the symmetry group. Our hypothesis is that the strong and electroweak bosons see each other as a source of decoherence. In effect, lepton representations get identified with the $SU(3)$-trace-reduced quark representations. This mechanism allows for possible extensions of the Standard Model that don't require large inclusive multiplets of matter fields.

Tensor Network states form a powerful framework for both the analytical and numerical study of strongly correlated phases. Vital to their analytical utility is that they appear as the exact ground states of associated parent Hamiltonians, where canonical proof techniques guarantee a controlled ground space structure. Yet, while those Hamiltonians are local by construction, the known techniques often yield complex Hamiltonians which act on a rather large number of spins. In this paper, we present an algorithm to systematically simplify parent Hamiltonians, breaking them down into any given basis of elementary interaction terms. The underlying optimization problem is a semidefinite program, and thus the optimal solution can be found efficiently. Our method exploits a degree of freedom in the construction of parent Hamiltonians -- the excitation spectrum of the local terms -- over which it optimizes such as to obtain the best possible approximation. We benchmark our method on the AKLT model and the Toric Code model, where we show that the canonical parent Hamiltonians (acting on 3 or 4 and 12 sites, respectively) can be broken down to the known optimal 2-body and 4-body terms. We then apply our method to the paradigmatic Resonating Valence Bond (RVB) model on the kagome lattice. Here, the simplest previously known parent Hamiltonian acts on all the 12 spins on one kagome star. With our optimization algorithm, we obtain a vastly simpler Hamiltonian: We find that the RVB model is the exact ground state of a parent Hamiltonian whose terms are all products of at most four Heisenberg interactions, and whose range can be further constrained, providing a major improvement over the previously known 12-body Hamiltonian.

The Role of Nonlinear Relapse on Contagion Amongst Drinking Communities

Relapse, the recurrence of a disorder following a symptomatic remission, is a frequent outcome in substance abuse disorders. Some of our prior results suggested that relapse, in the context of abusive drinking, is likely an "unbeatable" force as long as recovered individuals continue to interact in the environments that lead to and/or reinforce the persistence of abusive drinking behaviors. Our earlier results were obtained via a deterministic model that ignored differences between individuals, that is, in a rather simple "social" setting. In this paper, we address the role of relapse on drinking dynamics but use models that incorporate the role of "chance", or a high degree of "social" heterogeneity, or both. Our focus is primarily on situations where relapse rates are high. We first use a Markov chain model to simulate the effect of relapse on drinking dynamics. These simulations reinforce the conclusions obtained before, with the usual caveats that arise when the outcomes of deterministic and stochastic models are compared. However, the simulation results generated from stochastic realizations of an "equivalent" drinking process in populations "living" in small world networks, parameterized via a disorder parameter $p$, show that there is no social structure within this family capable of reducing the impact of high relapse rates on drinking prevalence, even if we drastically limit the interactions between individuals ($p\approx 0$).

GRB 091127 is a bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) detected by Swift at a redshift z=0.49 and associated with SN 2009nz. We present the broadband analysis of the GRB prompt and afterglow emission and study its high-energy properties in the context of the GRB/SN association. While the high luminosity of the prompt emission and standard afterglow behavior are typical of cosmological long GRBs, its low energy release, soft spectrum and unusual spectral lag connect this GRB to the class of sub-energetic bursts. We discuss the suppression of high-energy emission in this burst, and investigate whether this behavior could be connected with the sub-energetic nature of the explosion.

The complete 1-loop computation of the processes $(\tchi^0_i \tchi^0_j \leftrightarrow\gamma\gamma, ~ gg)$, for any pair of the four MSSM neutralinos, has been performed for an arbitrary c.m energy. As a first application suitable for Dark Matter (DM) searches, the neutralino-neutralino annihilation is studied at relative velocities $v/c\simeq 10^{-3}$ describing the present DM distribution in the galactic halo, and $v/c\simeq 0.5$ determining neutralino relic density contributions. Numerical results are presented for 31 MSSM benchmark models indicating considerable sensitivity to the input parameters. Numerical codes are released, which may be used for the computation of the annihilation of any two neutralinos to two photons or two gluons at the aforementioned $v/c$ values. In the near future, we intend to complement them with codes for the inverse process $\gamma\gamma \to \tchi^0_i \tchi^0_j$, observable at the future high energy Linear Colliders.

We prove that the perfect loop functor $LX$ of a quasi-projective scheme $X$ over a local non-archimedean field $k$ satisfies arc-descent, strengthening a result of Drinfeld. Then we prove that for an unramified reductive group $G$, the map $LG \rightarrow L(G/B)$ is a $v$-surjection. This gives a mixed characteristic version (for $v$-topology) of an equal characteristic result (in \'etale topology) of Bouthier--\v{C}esnavi\v{c}ius. In the second part of the article, we use the above results to introduce a well-behaved notion of Deligne--Lusztig spaces $X_w(b)$ attached to unramified $p$-adic reductive groups. We show that in various cases these sheaves are ind-representable, thus partially solving a question of Boyarchenko. Finally, we show that the natural covering spaces $\dot X_{\dot w}(b)$ are pro-\'etale torsors over clopen subsets of $X_w(b)$, and analyze some examples.

We present a bounded probability algorithm for the computation of the Chow forms of the equidimensional components of an algebraic variety. Its complexity is polynomial in the length and in the geometric degree of the input equation system defining the variety. In particular, it provides an alternative algorithm for the equidimensional decomposition of a variety. As an application we obtain an algorithm for the computation of a subclass of sparse resultants, whose complexity is polynomial in the dimension and the volume of the input set of exponents. As a further application, we derive an algorithm for the computation of the (unique) solution of a generic over-determined equation system.

The main result of this paper is that, off of a `fundamental class' in degree 1, the linearized Legendrian contact homology obeys a version of Poincare duality between homology groups in degrees k and -k. Not only does the result itself simplify calculations, but its proof also establishes a framework for analyzing cohomology operations on the linearized Legendrian contact homology.

In natural and social science, many events happened at different space-times may be closely correlated. Two events, $A$ (Alice) and $B$ (Bob) are defined correlated if one event is determined by another, say, $B=\hat{f}A$ for suitable $\hat{f}$ operators. Taking KdV and coupled KdV systems as examples, we can find some types of models (AB-KdV systems) to exhibit the existence on the correlated solutions linked with two events. The idea of this report is valid not only for physical problems related to KdV systems but also for problems described by arbitrary continuous or discrete models. The parity and time reversal symmetries are extended to shifted parity and delayed time reversal. The new symmetries are found to be useful not only to establish AB-systems but also to find group invariant solutions of numerous AB-systems. A new elegant form of the $N$-soliton solutions of the KdV equation and then the AB-KdV systems is obtained. A concrete AB-KdV system derived from the nonlinear inviscid dissipative and barotropic vorticity equation in a $\beta$-plane channel is applied to the two correlated monople blocking events which is responsible for the snow disaster in the winter of 2007/2008 happened in Southern China.

This toolbox notably includes a treatment of the effect of Hadamard products on singularities in the context of the complex Tauberian technique known as singularity analysis.

Medical image segmentation is one of the fundamental problems for artificial intelligence-based clinical decision systems. Current automatic medical image segmentation methods are often failed to meet clinical requirements. As such, a series of interactive segmentation algorithms are proposed to utilize expert correction information. However, existing methods suffer from some segmentation refining failure problems after long-term interactions and some cost problems from expert annotation, which hinder clinical applications. This paper proposes an interactive segmentation framework, called interactive MEdical segmentation with self-adaptive Confidence CAlibration (MECCA), by introducing the corrective action evaluation, which combines the action-based confidence learning and multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL). The evaluation is established through a novel action-based confidence network, and the corrective actions are obtained from MARL. Based on the confidential information, a self-adaptive reward function is designed to provide more detailed feedback, and a simulated label generation mechanism is proposed on unsupervised data to reduce over-reliance on labeled data. Experimental results on various medical image datasets have shown the significant performance of the proposed algorithm.

The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (Bluetooth SIG) introduced a new feature for highly accurate localization called the Direction Finding in the Bluetooth Core Specification 5.1. Since this new localization feature is relatively new, despite the significant interest of industry and academia in the accurate positioning of Bluetooth devices/tags, there are only a handful of experimental studies conducted to evaluate the performance of the new technology. Furthermore, these experimental works are constrained to only indoor environments or performed with hardware emulation of Bluetooth 5.1 via Universal Software Radio Peripherals (USRPs). In this paper, we perform an experimental study on the positioning accuracy of the direction finding using COTS Bluetooth 5.1 devices in booth indoor and outdoor environments to provide insights on the performance gap under these different experimental settings. Our results demonstrate that the average angular error in an outdoor environment is 0.28 degrees, significantly improving the angular error measured in an indoor environment by 73%. It is also demonstrated that the average positioning accuracy measured in an outdoor environment is 22cm which is 39.7% smaller than that measured in an indoor environment.

Glass, a ubiquitous state of matter like a frozen liquid, is a seminal issue across fundamental and applied sciences and has long been investigated in the framework of classical mechanics. A challenge in glass physics is the exploration of the quantum-mechanical behaviour of glass. Experimentally, however, the real quantum manifestation of glass and the relationship between classical and quantum glass are totally unknown and remain to be observed in real systems. Here, we report the direct observation of classical-to-quantum evolution in the frustration-induced charge glass state exhibited by interacting electrons in organic materials. We employ Raman spectroscopy to capture a snapshot of the charge density distribution of each molecule in a series of charge glasses formed on triangular lattices with different geometrical frustrations. In less frustrated glass, the charge density profile exhibits a particle-like two-valued distribution; however, it becomes continuous and narrowed with increasing frustration, demonstrating the classical-to-quantum crossover. Moreover, the charge density distribution shows contrasting temperature evolution in classical and quantum glasses, enabling us to delineate energy landscapes with distinct features. The present result is the first to experimentally identify the quantum charge glass and show how it emerges from classical glass.

Today's deep learning models are primarily trained on CPUs and GPUs. Although these models tend to have low error, they consume high power and utilize large amount of memory owing to double precision floating point learning parameters. Beyond the Moore's law, a significant portion of deep learning tasks would run on edge computing systems, which will form an indispensable part of the entire computation fabric. Subsequently, training deep learning models for such systems will have to be tailored and adopted to generate models that have the following desirable characteristics: low error, low memory, and low power. We believe that deep neural networks (DNNs), where learning parameters are constrained to have a set of finite discrete values, running on neuromorphic computing systems would be instrumental for intelligent edge computing systems having these desirable characteristics. To this extent, we propose the Combinatorial Neural Network Training Algorithm (CoNNTrA), that leverages a coordinate gradient descent-based approach for training deep learning models with finite discrete learning parameters. Next, we elaborate on the theoretical underpinnings and evaluate the computational complexity of CoNNTrA. As a proof of concept, we use CoNNTrA to train deep learning models with ternary learning parameters on the MNIST, Iris and ImageNet data sets and compare their performance to the same models trained using Backpropagation. We use following performance metrics for the comparison: (i) Training error; (ii) Validation error; (iii) Memory usage; and (iv) Training time. Our results indicate that CoNNTrA models use 32x less memory and have errors at par with the Backpropagation models.

We study the peformances of Raman velocimetry applied to laser-cooled, spin-polarized, cesium atoms. Atoms are optically pumped into the F=4, m=0 ground-state Zeeman sublevel, which is insensitive to magnetic perturbations. High resolution Raman stimulated spectroscopy is shown to produce Fourier-limited lines, allowing, in realistic experimental conditions, atomic velocity selection to one-fiftieth of a recoil velocity.

The breaking stress (the maximum of the stress-strain curve) of neutron star crust is important for neutron star physics including pulsar glitches, emission of gravitational waves from static mountains, and flares from star quakes. We perform many molecular dynamic simulations of the breaking stress at different coupling parameters (inverse temperatures) and strain rates. We describe our results with the Zhurkov model of strength. We apply this model to estimate the breaking stress for timescales ~1 s - 1 year, which are most important for applications, but much longer than can be directly simulated. At these timescales the breaking stress depends strongly on the temperature. For coupling parameter <200, matter breaks at very small stress, if it is applied for a few years. This viscoelastic creep can limit the lifetime of mountains on neutron stars. We also suggest an alternative model of timescale-independent breaking stress, which can be used to estimate an upper limit on the breaking stress.

We have carried out a deep infrared imaging survey (1.1um and 1.6um) of the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N) using NICMOS on board the Hubble Space Telescope. The combined WFPC2+NICMOS data set lets us study galaxy morphologies, colors and luminosities at common rest frame wavelengths over a broad range of redshifts, e.g., in the V-band out to z=2. Here, I illustrate some applications of this data set for studying the evolution of giant galaxies, on and off the Hubble Sequence. Large, relatively ordinary spiral galaxies are found out to at least z=~1.25. Morphological irregularities seen in many distant HDF galaxies tend to persist from ultraviolet through optical rest frame wavelengths, suggesting that these are genuinely peculiar, structurally disturbed systems. Red giant ellipticals are found out to (photometric) redshifts z=~1.8, implying that some such galaxies probably formed the bulk of their stars at z_f>~4. However, there are also bluer early type galaxies at z>0.5, which may have experienced extended star formation histories. Finally, there appears to be a substantial deficit of high luminosity galaxies of all types at 1.4<~z<2 compared to lower redshifts. However, this result must be considered with caution given the small volume of the HDF, its susceptibility to line-of-sight clustering variations, and the heavy reliance on photometric redshifts at z>~1.4.

In this work we relate the spectral problem of the toroidal six-vertex model's transfer matrix with the theory of integrable non-linear differential equations. More precisely, we establish an analogy between the Classical Inverse Scattering Method and previously proposed functional equations originating from the Yang-Baxter algebra. The latter equations are then regarded as an Auxiliary Linear Problem allowing us to show that the six-vertex model's spectrum solves Riccati-type non-linear differential equations. Generating functions of conserved quantities are expressed in terms of determinants and we also discuss a relation between our Riccati equations and a stationary Schr\"odinger equation.

Generating responses in a targeted style is a useful yet challenging task, especially in the absence of parallel data. With limited data, existing methods tend to generate responses that are either less stylized or less context-relevant. We propose StyleFusion, which bridges conversation modeling and non-parallel style transfer by sharing a structured latent space. This structure allows the system to generate stylized relevant responses by sampling in the neighborhood of the conversation model prediction, and continuously control the style level. We demonstrate this method using dialogues from Reddit data and two sets of sentences with distinct styles (arXiv and Sherlock Holmes novels). Automatic and human evaluation show that, without sacrificing appropriateness, the system generates responses of the targeted style and outperforms competitive baselines.

We describe an environment that considerably simplifies the process of generating Bayesian belief networks. The system has been implemented on readily available, inexpensive hardware, and provides clarity and high performance. We present an introduction to Bayesian belief networks, discuss algorithms for inference with these networks, and delineate the classes of problems that can be solved with this paradigm. We then describe the hardware and software that constitute the system, and illustrate Ergo's use with several example

As AI-enhanced technologies become common in a variety of domains, there is an increasing need to define and examine the trust that users have in such technologies. Given the progress in the development of AI, a correspondingly sophisticated understanding of trust in the technology is required. This paper addresses this need by explaining the role of trust on the intention to use AI technologies. Study 1 examined the role of trust in the use of AI voice assistants based on survey responses from college students. A path analysis confirmed that trust had a significant effect on the intention to use AI, which operated through perceived usefulness and participants' attitude toward voice assistants. In study 2, using data from a representative sample of the U.S. population, different dimensions of trust were examined using exploratory factor analysis, which yielded two dimensions: human-like trust and functionality trust. The results of the path analyses from Study 1 were replicated in Study 2, confirming the indirect effect of trust and the effects of perceived usefulness, ease of use, and attitude on intention to use. Further, both dimensions of trust shared a similar pattern of effects within the model, with functionality-related trust exhibiting a greater total impact on usage intention than human-like trust. Overall, the role of trust in the acceptance of AI technologies was significant across both studies. This research contributes to the advancement and application of the TAM in AI-related applications and offers a multidimensional measure of trust that can be utilized in the future study of trustworthy AI.

Recent data protection regulations (such as GDPR and CCPA) grant consumers various rights, including the right to access, modify or delete any personal information collected about them (and retained) by a service provider. To exercise these rights, one must submit a verifiable consumer request proving that the collected data indeed pertains to them. This action is straightforward for consumers with active accounts with a service provider at the time of data collection, since they can use standard (e.g., password-based) means of authentication to validate their requests. However, a major conundrum arises from the need to support consumers without accounts to exercise their rights. To this end, some service providers began requiring such accountless consumers to reveal and prove their identities (e.g., using government-issued documents, utility bills, or credit card numbers) as part of issuing a verifiable consumer request. While understandable as a short-term cure, this approach is cumbersome and expensive for service providers as well as privacy-invasive for consumers. Consequently, there is a strong need to provide better means of authenticating requests from accountless consumers. To achieve this, we propose VICEROY, a privacy-preserving and scalable framework for producing proofs of data ownership, which form a basis for verifiable consumer requests. Building upon existing web techniques and features, VICEROY allows accountless consumers to interact with service providers, and later prove that they are the same person in a privacy-preserving manner, while requiring minimal changes for both parties. We design and implement VICEROY with emphasis on security/privacy, deployability and usability. We also thoroughly assess its practicality via extensive experiments.

This paper proposes to study the impact of image selective encryption on both forensics and privacy preserving mechanisms. The proposed selective encryption scheme works independently on each bitplane by encrypting the s most significant bits of each pixel. We show that this mechanism can be used to increase privacy by mitigating image recognition tasks. In order to guarantee a trade-off between forensics analysis and privacy, the signal of interest used for forensics purposes is extracted from the 8--s least significant bits of the protected image. We show on the CASIA2 database that good tampering detection capabilities can be achieved for s $\in$ {3,. .. , 5} with an accuracy above 80% using SRMQ1 features, while preventing class recognition tasks using CNN with an accuracy smaller than 50%.

Let $\mathsf m$ be any conical (or smooth) metric of finite volume on the Riemann sphere $\Bbb CP^1$. On a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g$ consider a meromorphic funciton $f: X\to {\Bbb C}P^1$ such that all poles and critical points of $f$ are simple and no critical value of $f$ coincides with a conical singularity of $\mathsf m$ or $\{\infty\}$. The pullback $f^*\mathsf m$ of $\mathsf m$ under $f$ has conical singularities of angles $4\pi$ at the critical points of $f$ and other conical singularities that are the preimages of those of $\mathsf m$. We study the $\zeta$-regularized determinant $\operatorname{Det}' \Delta_F$ of the (Friedrichs extension of) Laplace-Beltrami operator on $(X,f^*\mathsf m)$ as a functional on the moduli space of pairs $(X, f)$ and obtain an explicit formula for $\operatorname{Det}' \Delta_F$.

A simple algebraic procedure is described for deriving Maxwell-Bloch-type equations from single-atom cavity quantum electrodynamics (cavity QED) master equations via orthogonal projection onto a manifold of semiclassical states. In particular the usual Maxwell-Bloch Equations are obtained--up to a state-dependent correction factor of order unity--straightforwardly from the unconditional Jaynes-Cummings master equation. The technique of projecting onto a semiclassical manifold can also be applied with conditional master equations (quantum filters), leading to stochastic simulation models that include multiplicative noise terms associated with fluctuations of the atomic dipole. The utility of such models is briefly explored in the context of single-atom absorptive bistability.

Significant correlations between arrivals of load-generating events make the numerical evaluation of the workload of a system a challenging problem. In this paper, we construct highly accurate approximations of the workload distribution of the MAP/G/1 queue that capture the tail behavior of the exact workload distribution and provide a bounded relative error. Motivated by statistical analysis, we consider the service times as a mixture of a phase-type and a heavy-tailed distribution. With the aid of perturbation analysis, we derive our approximations as a sum of the workload distribution of the MAP/PH/1 queue and a heavy-tailed component that depends on the perturbation parameter. We refer to our approximations as corrected phase-type approximations, and we exhibit their performance with a numerical study.

Text detection in natural scene images has applications for autonomous driving, navigation help for elderly and blind people. However, the research on Urdu text detection is usually hindered by lack of data resources. We have developed a dataset of scene images with Urdu text. We present the use of machine learning methods to perform detection of Urdu text from the scene images. We extract text regions using channel enhanced Maximally Stable Extremal Region (MSER) method. First, we classify text and noise based on their geometric properties. Next, we use a support vector machine for early discarding of non-text regions. To further remove the non-text regions, we use histogram of oriented gradients (HoG) features obtained and train a second SVM classifier. This improves the overall performance on text region detection within the scene images. To support research on Urdu text, We aim to make the data freely available for research use. We also aim to highlight the challenges and the research gap for Urdu text detection.

Image deblurring has achieved exciting progress in recent years. However, traditional methods fail to deblur severely blurred images, where semantic contents appears ambiguously. In this paper, we conduct image deblurring guided by the semantic contents inferred from image captioning. Specially, we propose a novel Structured-Spatial Semantic Embedding model for image deblurring (termed S3E-Deblur), which introduces a novel Structured-Spatial Semantic tree model (S3-tree) to bridge two basic tasks in computer vision: image deblurring (ImD) and image captioning (ImC). In particular, S3-tree captures and represents the semantic contents in structured spatial features in ImC, and then embeds the spatial features of the tree nodes into GAN based ImD. Co-training on S3-tree, ImC, and ImD is conducted to optimize the overall model in a multi-task end-to-end manner. Extensive experiments on severely blurred MSCOCO and GoPro datasets demonstrate the significant superiority of S3E-Deblur compared to the state-of-the-arts on both ImD and ImC tasks.

In this paper, we use two model-independent methods to standardize long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) using the $E_{\rm iso}-E_{\rm p}$ correlation, where $E_{\rm iso}$ is the isotropic-equivalent gamma-ray energy and $E_{\rm p}$ is the spectral peak energy. We update 42 long GRBs and try to make constraint on cosmological parameters. The full sample contains 151 long GRBs with redshifts from 0.0331 to 8.2. The first method is the simultaneous fitting method. The extrinsic scatter $\sigma_{\rm ext}$ is taken into account and assigned to the parameter $E_{\rm iso}$. The best-fitting values are $a=49.15\pm0.26$, $b=1.42\pm0.11$, $\sigma_{\rm ext}=0.34\pm0.03$ and $\Omega_m=0.79$ in the flat $\Lambda$CDM model. The constraint on $\Omega_m$ is $0.55<\Omega_m<1$ at the 1$\sigma$ confidence level. If reduced $\chi^2$ method is used, the best-fit results are $a=48.96\pm0.18$, $b=1.52\pm0.08$ and $\Omega_m=0.50\pm0.12$. The second method is using type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) to calibrate the $E_{\rm iso}-E_{\rm p}$ correlation. We calibrate 90 high-redshift GRBs in the redshift range from 1.44 to 8.1. The cosmological constraints from these 90 GRBs are $\Omega_m=0.23^{+0.06}_{-0.04}$ for flat $\Lambda$CDM, and $\Omega_m=0.18\pm0.11$ and $\Omega_{\Lambda}=0.46\pm0.51$ for non-flat $\Lambda$CDM. For the combination of GRB and SNe Ia sample, we obtain $\Omega_m=0.271\pm0.019$ and $h=0.701\pm0.002$ for the flat $\Lambda$CDM, and for the non-flat $\Lambda$CDM, the results are $\Omega_m=0.225\pm0.044$, $\Omega_{\Lambda}=0.640\pm0.082$ and $h=0.698\pm0.004$. These results from calibrated GRBs are consistent with that of SNe Ia. Meanwhile, the combined data can improve cosmological constraints significantly, comparing to SNe Ia alone. Our results show that the $E_{\rm iso}-E_{\rm p}$ correlation is promising to probe the high-redshift universe.

An outline of a proof of the decomposition of linear metric perturbations into gauge-invariant and gauge-variant parts on the an arbitrary background spacetime which admits ADM decomposition is discussed. We explicitly construct the gauge-invariant and gauge-variant parts of the linear metric perturbations through the assumption of the existence of some Green functions. We also confirm the result through another approach. This implies that we can develop the higher-order gauge-invariant perturbation theory on an arbitrary background spacetime. Remaining issues to complete the general-framework of the general-relativistic higher-order gauge-invariant perturbation theories are also discussed.

This paper considers a scenario of pursuing a moving target that may switch behaviors due to external factors in a dynamic environment by motion estimation using visual sensors. First, we present an improved Visual Motion Observer with switched Gaussian Process models for an extended class of target motion profiles. We then propose a pursuit control law with an online method to estimate the switching behavior of the target by the GP model uncertainty. Next, we prove ultimate boundedness of the control and estimation errors for the switch in target behavior with high probability. Finally, a Digital Twin simulation demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed switching estimation and control law to prove applicability to real world scenarios.

We address the problem of identifying remnants of satellite galaxies in the halo of our galaxy with Gaia data. We make use of N-body simulations of dwarf galaxies being disrupted in the halo of our galaxy combined with a Monte Carlo model of the Milky Way galaxy. The models are converted to a simulated Gaia catalogue containing a realistic number ($\sim10^8$--$10^9$) of stars. The simulated catalogue can be used to study how to handle the large data set that Gaia will provide and to study issues such as how to best retrieve information on substructure in the Galactic halo. The techniques described are applicable to any set of N-body simulations of (parts of) the Galaxy.

Gate bias stress instability in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) is a major conceptual and device issue. This effect manifests itself by an undesirable shift of the transfer characteristics and is associated with long term charge trapping. We study the role of the dielectric and the semiconductor separately by producing OFETs with the same semiconductor (pentacene) combined with different dielectrics (SiO$_2$ and Cytop). We show, it is possible to fabricate devices which are immune to gate bias stress. For other material combinations, charge trapping occurs in the semiconductor alone, or in the dielectric.

The family of Wilder continua in cubes of dimension > 2 and its two subfamilies-of continuum-wise Wilder continua and of hereditarily arcwise connected continua-are recognized as coanalytic absorbers in the hyperspace of subcontinua of the cubes. In particular, each of them is homeomorphic to the set of all nonempty countable closed subsets of the unit interval.

Particle swaps can drastically accelerate dynamics in glass. The mechanism is expected to be vital for a fundamental understanding of glassy dynamics. To extract defining features, we propose a partial swappability with a fraction {\phi_s} of swap-initiating particles, which can only swap locally with each other or with regular particles. We focus on the swap-dominating regime. At all temperatures studied, particle diffusion coefficients scale with {\phi_s} in unexpected power laws with temperature-dependent exponents, consistent with the kinetic picture of glass transition. At small {\phi_s}, swap-initiators, becoming defect particles, induce remarkably typical glassy dynamics of regular particles. This supports defect models of glass.

In this paper, we study the first eigenvalue of Jacobi operator on an $n$-dimensional non-totally umbilical compact hypersurface with constant mean curvature $H$ in the unit sphere $S^{n+1}(1)$. We give an optimal upper bound for the first eigenvalue of Jacobi operator, which only depends on the mean curvature $H$ and the dimension $n$.

Long-Term Average Cost in Featured Transition Systems

A software product line is a family of software products that share a common set of mandatory features and whose individual products are differentiated by their variable (optional or alternative) features. Family-based analysis of software product lines takes as input a single model of a complete product line and analyzes all its products at the same time. As the number of products in a software product line may be large, this is generally preferable to analyzing each product on its own. Family-based analysis, however, requires that standard algorithms be adapted to accomodate variability. In this paper we adapt the standard algorithm for computing limit average cost of a weighted transition system to software product lines. Limit average is a useful and popular measure for the long-term average behavior of a quality attribute such as performance or energy consumption, but has hitherto not been available for family-based analysis of software product lines. Our algorithm operates on weighted featured transition systems, at a symbolic level, and computes limit average cost for all products in a software product line at the same time. We have implemented the algorithm and evaluated it on several examples.

We propose learning discrete structured representations from unlabeled data by maximizing the mutual information between a structured latent variable and a target variable. Calculating mutual information is intractable in this setting. Our key technical contribution is an adversarial objective that can be used to tractably estimate mutual information assuming only the feasibility of cross entropy calculation. We develop a concrete realization of this general formulation with Markov distributions over binary encodings. We report critical and unexpected findings on practical aspects of the objective such as the choice of variational priors. We apply our model on document hashing and show that it outperforms current best baselines based on discrete and vector quantized variational autoencoders. It also yields highly compressed interpretable representations.

This study presents an adversarial method for anomaly detection in real-world applications, leveraging the power of generative adversarial neural networks (GANs) through cycle consistency in reconstruction error. Previous methods suffer from the high variance between class-wise accuracy which leads to not being applicable for all types of anomalies. The proposed method named RCALAD tries to solve this problem by introducing a novel discriminator to the structure, which results in a more efficient training process. Additionally, RCALAD employs a supplementary distribution in the input space to steer reconstructions toward the normal data distribution, effectively separating anomalous samples from their reconstructions and facilitating more accurate anomaly detection. To further enhance the performance of the model, two novel anomaly scores are introduced. The proposed model has been thoroughly evaluated through extensive experiments on six various datasets, yielding results that demonstrate its superiority over existing state-of-the-art models. The code is readily available to the research community at https://github.com/zahraDehghanian97/RCALAD.

On measuring the Hubble constant with X-ray reverberation mapping of active galactic nuclei

We show that X-ray reverberation mapping can be used to measure the distance to type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs). This is because X-ray photons originally emitted from the `corona' close to the black hole irradiate the accretion disc and are re-emitted with a characteristic `reflection' spectrum that includes a prominent $\sim 6.4$ keV iron emission line. The shape of the reflection spectrum depends on the irradiating flux, and the light-crossing delay between continuum photons observed directly from the corona and the reflected photons constrains the size of the disc. Simultaneously modelling the X-ray spectrum and the time delays between photons of different energies therefore constrains the intrinsic reflected luminosity, and the distance follows from the observed reflected flux. Alternatively, the distance can be measured from the X-ray spectrum alone if the black hole mass is known. We develop a new model of our RELTRANS X-ray reverberation mapping package, called RTDIST, that has distance as a model parameter. We simulate a synthetic observation that we fit with our new model, and find that this technique applied to a sample of $\sim 25$ AGNs can be used to measure the Hubble constant with a $3 \sigma$ statistical uncertainty of $\sim 6~{\rm km}~{\rm s}^{-1}{\rm Mpc}^{-1}$. Since the technique is completely independent of the traditional distance ladder and the cosmic microwave background radiation, it has the potential to address the current tension between them. We discuss sources of modelling uncertainty, and how they can be addressed in the near future.

In this paper, we develop novel two-tier interference management strategies that enable macrocell users (MUEs) to improve their performance, with the help of open-access femtocells. To this end, we propose a rate-splitting technique using which the MUEs optimize their uplink transmissions by dividing their signals into two types: a coarse message that is intended for direct transmission to the macrocell base station and a fine message that is decoded by a neighboring femtocell and subsequently relayed over a heterogeneous (wireless/wired) backhaul. For deploying the proposed technique, we formulate a non-cooperative game between the MUEs in which each MUE can decide on its relaying femtocell while maximizing a utility function that captures both the achieved throughput and the expected backhaul delay. Simulation results show that the proposed approach yields up to 125% rate improvement and up to 2 times delay reduction with wired backhaul and, 150% rate improvement and up to 10 times delay reduction with wireless backhaul, relative to classical interference management approaches, with no cross-tier cooperation.

As light localization becomes increasingly pronounced in photonic systems with less order, we investigate optically induced two-dimensional Fibonacci structures which are supposed to be amongst the most ordered realizations of deterministic aperiodic patterns. For the generation of corresponding refractive index structures, we implement a recently developed incremental induction method using nondiffracting Bessel beams as waveguide formation entities. Even though Fibonacci structures present slightly reduced order, we show that transverse light transport is significantly hampered here in comparison with periodic lattices that account for discrete diffraction. Our experimental findings are supported by numerical simulations that additionally illustrate a development of transverse light localization for increasing propagation distance.

We consider a few variations of the problem, discuss some related properties of double arithmetic progressions, and present several results obtained by using RamseyScript, a high-level scripting language.

We study a family of mean field games with a state variable evolving as a multivariate jump diffusion process. The jump component is driven by a Poisson process with a time-dependent intensity function. All coefficients, i.e. drift, volatility and jump size, are controlled. Under fairly general conditions, we establish existence of a solution in a relaxed version of the mean field game and give conditions under which the optimal strategies are in fact Markovian, hence extending to a jump-diffusion setting previous results established in [30]. The proofs rely upon the notions of relaxed controls and martingale problems. Finally, to complement the abstract existence results, we study a simple illiquid inter-bank market model, where the banks can change their reserves only at the jump times of some exogenous Poisson processes with a common constant intensity, and provide some numerical results.

Existing star-forming vs. active galactic nucleus (AGN) classification schemes using optical emission-line diagnostics mostly fail for low-metallicity and/or highly star-forming galaxies, missing AGN in typical $z\sim0$ dwarfs. To recover AGN in dwarfs with strong emission lines (SELs), we present a classification scheme optimizing the use of existing optical diagnostics. We use SDSS emission-line catalogs overlapping the volume- and mass-limited RESOLVE and ECO surveys to determine the AGN percentage in SEL dwarfs. Our photoionization grids show that the [O III]/H$\beta$ versus [S II]/H$\alpha$ diagram (SII plot) and [O III]/H$\beta$ versus [O I]/H$\alpha$ diagram (OI plot) are less metallicity sensitive and more successful in identifying dwarf AGN than the popular [O III]/H$\beta$ versus [N II]/H$\alpha$ diagnostic (NII plot or "BPT diagram"). We identify a new category of "star-forming AGN" (SF-AGN) classified as star-forming by the NII plot but as AGN by the SII and/or OI plots. Including SF-AGN, we find the $z\sim0$ AGN percentage in dwarfs with SELs to be $\sim$3-16\%, far exceeding most previous optical estimates ($\sim$1\%). The large range in our dwarf AGN percentage reflects differences in spectral fitting methodologies between catalogs. The highly complete nature of RESOLVE and ECO allows us to normalize strong emission-line galaxy statistics to the full galaxy population, reducing the dwarf AGN percentage to $\sim$0.6-3.0\%. The newly identified SF-AGN are mostly gas-rich dwarfs with halo mass $ < 10^{11.5} M_\odot$, where highly efficient cosmic gas accretion is expected. Almost all SF-AGN also have low metallicities (Z $\lesssim 0.4$ Z$_\odot$), demonstrating the advantage of our method.

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Conformal and quasi-conformal mappings have widespread applications in imaging science, computer vision and computer graphics, such as surface registration, segmentation, remeshing, and texture map compression. While various conformal and quasi-conformal parameterization methods for simply-connected surfaces have been proposed, efficient parameterization methods for multiply-connected surfaces are less explored. In this paper, we propose a novel parallelizable algorithm for computing the global conformal and quasi-conformal parameterization of multiply-connected surfaces onto a 2D circular domain using variants of the partial welding algorithm and the Koebe's iteration. The main idea is to partition a multiply-connected surface into several subdomains and compute the free-boundary conformal or quasi-conformal parameterizations of them respectively, and then apply a variant of the partial welding algorithm to reconstruct the global mapping. We apply the Koebe's iteration together with the geodesic algorithm to the boundary points and welding paths before and after the global welding to transform all the boundaries to circles conformally. After getting all the updated boundary conditions, we obtain the global parameterization of the multiply-connected surface by solving the Laplace equation for each subdomain. Using this divide-and-conquer approach, the parameterization of surfaces with very high resolution can be efficiently computed. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithms.

We have developed a new method to approach the missing baryons problem. We assume that the missing baryons reside in a form of Warm Hot Intergalactic Medium, i.e. the WHIM. Our method consists of (a) detecting the coherent large scale structure in the spatial distribution of galaxies that traces the Cosmic Web and that in hydrodynamical simulations is associated to the WHIM, (b) map its luminosity into a galaxy luminosity density field, (c) use numerical simulations to relate the luminosity density to the density of the WHIM, (d) apply this relation to real data to trace the WHIM using the observed galaxy luminosities in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and 2dF redshift surveys. In our application we find evidence for the WHIM along the line of sight to the Sculptor Wall, at redshifts consistent with the recently reported X-ray absorption line detections. Our indirect WHIM detection technique complements the standard method based on the detection of characteristic X-ray absorption lines, showing that the galaxy luminosity density is a reliable signpost for the WHIM. For this reason, our method could be applied to current galaxy surveys to optimise the observational strategies for detecting and studying the WHIM and its properties. Our estimates of the WHIM hydrogen column density in Sculptor agree with those obtained via the X-ray analysis. Due to the additional column density estimate, our method has potential for improving the constrains of the physical parameters of the WHIM as derived with X-ray absorption, and thus for improving the understanding of the missing baryons problem.

Current deep learning results on video generation are limited while there are only a few first results on video prediction and no relevant significant results on video completion. This is due to the severe ill-posedness inherent in these three problems. In this paper, we focus on human action videos, and propose a general, two-stage deep framework to generate human action videos with no constraints or arbitrary number of constraints, which uniformly address the three problems: video generation given no input frames, video prediction given the first few frames, and video completion given the first and last frames. To make the problem tractable, in the first stage we train a deep generative model that generates a human pose sequence from random noise. In the second stage, a skeleton-to-image network is trained, which is used to generate a human action video given the complete human pose sequence generated in the first stage. By introducing the two-stage strategy, we sidestep the original ill-posed problems while producing for the first time high-quality video generation/prediction/completion results of much longer duration. We present quantitative and qualitative evaluation to show that our two-stage approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods in video generation, prediction and video completion.

Heusler alloy Fe2CrAl exhibits a ferromagnetic behaviour below Curie temperature (TC) ~ 202 K along with presence of cluster glass (CG) phase near freezing temperature (Tf) ~ 3.9 K and Griffiths phase (GP) above 300 K. The physical properties of this alloy are very sensitive to substitutions and anti-site disorder. Here, we investigate the effect of partial substitution of Mo at Cr-site on physical properties of Fe2CrAl. Structural and morphological analysis confirms the single cubic structure of the substituted alloys. Increment in Mo concentration shifts the TC towards lower temperature, which is ascribed to the effect of increased hybridization strength between 3d-4d states of Fe/Cr/Mo. Additionally, systematic analysis of AC susceptibility, magnetic memory effect and time dependent magnetization studies confirm the presence of CG-like phase near (Tf) ~ 3.5 K in Fe2Cr0.95Mo0.05Al. Such feature gets suppressed towards lower temperature with an increase of Mo concentration, i.e. below 1.8 K in Fe2Cr0.85Mo0.15Al. The origin of the glassy signature is ascribed to the decrement in magnetic anisotropy with Mo concentration. A partial increment in magnetic entropy change is also noted near TC with the increase in Mo substitution. Interestingly, at high temperatures (above 350 K), GP phase persists in both the alloys due to the presence of anti-site disorder.

Recently, Byland and Scialom studied the evolution of the Bianchi I, the Bianchi III and the Kantowski-Sachs universe on the basis of dynamical systems methods (Phys. Rev. D57, 6065 (1998), gr-qc/9802043). In particular, they have pointed out a problem to determine the stability properties of one of the degenerate critical points of the corresponding dynamical system. Here we give a solution, showing that this point is unstable both to the past and to the future. We also discuss the asymptotic behavior of the trajectories in the vicinity of another critical point.

The emergence of collective order in matter is among the most fundamental and intriguing phenomena in physics. In recent years, the ultrafast dynamical control and creation of novel ordered states of matter not accessible in thermodynamic equilibrium is receiving much attention. Among those, the theoretical concept of dynamical multiferroicity has been introduced to describe the emergence of magnetization by means of a time-dependent electric polarization in non-ferromagnetic materials. In simple terms, a large amplitude coherent rotating motion of the ions in a crystal induces a magnetic moment along the axis of rotation. However, the experimental verification of this effect is still lacking. Here, we provide evidence of room temperature magnetization in the archetypal paraelectric perovskite SrTiO$_3$ due to this mechanism. To achieve it, we resonantly drive the infrared-active soft phonon mode with intense circularly polarized terahertz electric field, and detect a large magneto-optical Kerr effect. A simple model, which includes two coupled nonlinear oscillators whose forces and couplings are derived with ab-initio calculations using self-consistent phonon theory at a finite temperature, reproduces qualitatively our experimental observations on the temporal and frequency domains. A quantitatively correct magnitude of the effect is obtained when one also considers the phonon analogue of the reciprocal of the Einsten - de Haas effect, also called the Barnett effect, where the total angular momentum from the phonon order is transferred to the electronic one. Our findings show a new path for designing ultrafast magnetic switches by means of coherent control of lattice vibrations with light.

Higgs G-inflation is a Higgs inflation model with a generalized Galileon term added to the standard model Higgs field, which realizes inflation compatible with observations. Recently, it was claimed that the generalized Galileon term induces instabilities during the oscillation phase, and that the simplest Higgs G-inflation model inevitably suffers from this problem. In this paper, we extend the original Higgs G-inflation Lagrangian to a more general form, namely introducing a higher-order kinetic term and generalizing the form of the Galileon term, so that the Higgs field can oscillate after inflation without encountering instabilities. Moreover, it accommodates a large region of the n_s - r plane, most of which is consistent with current observations, leading us to expect the detection of B-mode polarization in the cosmic microwave background in the near future.

Neural networks that are equivariant to rotations, translations, reflections, and permutations on n-dimensional geometric space have shown promise in physical modeling for tasks such as accurately but inexpensively modeling complex potential energy surfaces to guiding the sampling of complex dynamical systems or forecasting their time evolution. Current state-of-the-art methods employ spherical harmonics to encode higher-order interactions among particles, which are computationally expensive. In this paper, we propose a simple alternative functional form that uses neurally parametrized linear combinations of edge vectors to achieve equivariance while still universally approximating node environments. Incorporating this insight, we design spatial attention kinetic networks with E(n)-equivariance, or SAKE, which are competitive in many-body system modeling tasks while being significantly faster.

We present an approximation algorithm that takes a pool of pre-trained models as input and produces from it a cascaded model with similar accuracy but lower average-case cost. Applied to state-of-the-art ImageNet classification models, this yields up to a 2x reduction in floating point multiplications, and up to a 6x reduction in average-case memory I/O. The auto-generated cascades exhibit intuitive properties, such as using lower-resolution input for easier images and requiring higher prediction confidence when using a computationally cheaper model.

Stokes phenomenon refers to the fact that the asymptotic expansion of complex functions can differ in different regions of the complex plane, and that beyond the so-called Stokes lines has an unphysical divergence. An important special case is when the Stokes lines emanate from phase space caustics of a complex trajectory manifold. In this case, symmetry determines that to second order there is a double coverage of the space, one portion of which is unphysical. Building on the seminal but laconic findings of Adachi, we show that the deviation from second order can be used to rigorously determine the Stokes lines and therefore the region of the space that should be removed. The method has applications to wavepacket reconstruction from complex valued classical trajectories. With a rigorous method in hand for removing unphysical divergences, we demonstrate excellent wavepacket reconstruction for the Morse, Quartic, Coulomb and Eckart systems.

One possible scenario for the formation of massive black holes (BHs) in the early Universe is from the direct collapse of primordial gas in atomic-cooling dark matter haloes in which the gas is unable to cool efficiently via molecular transitions. We study the formation of such BHs, as well as the accretion of gas onto these objects and the high energy radiation emitted in the accretion process, by carrying out cosmological radiation hydrodynamics simulations. In the absence of radiative feedback, we find an upper limit to the accretion rate onto the central object which forms from the initial collapse of hot (~ 10^4 K) gas of the order of 0.1 MSun per year. This is high enough for the formation of a supermassive star, the immediate precursor of a BH, with a mass of the order of 10^5 MSun. Assuming that a fraction of this mass goes into a BH, we track the subsequent accretion of gas onto the BH self-consistently with the high energy radiation emitted from the accretion disk. Using a ray-tracing algorithm to follow the propagation of ionizing radiation, we model in detail the evolution of the photoionized region which forms around the accreting BH. We find that BHs with masses of the order of 10^4 MSun initially accrete at close to the Eddington limit, but that the accretion rate drops to of order 1 percent of the Eddington limit after ~ 10^6 yr, due to the expansion of the gas near the BH in response to strong photoheating and radiation pressure. One signature of the accretion of gas onto BHs formed by direct collapse, as opposed to massive Pop III star formation, is an extremely high ratio of the luminosity emitted in He II 1640 to that emitted in H_alpha (or Ly_alpha); this could be detected by the James Webb Space Telescope. Finally, we briefly discuss implications for the coevolution of BHs and their host galaxies.

The hypothesis of cosmic censorship plays a crucial role in classical general relativity, namely, to ensure that naked singularities would never occur from the black hole singularity. In this paper, we will present how energy conditions prohibit forming the naked singularity in the spherical perfect fluid collapse, and thus the strong cosmic censorship conjecture hold in this model. We also show that this result can be extended to the cosmological constant background.

Reinforcement Learning for Semantic Segmentation in Indoor Scenes

Future advancements in robot autonomy and sophistication of robotics tasks rest on robust, efficient, and task-dependent semantic understanding of the environment. Semantic segmentation is the problem of simultaneous segmentation and categorization of a partition of sensory data. The majority of current approaches tackle this using multi-class segmentation and labeling in a Conditional Random Field (CRF) framework or by generating multiple object hypotheses and combining them sequentially. In practical settings, the subset of semantic labels that are needed depend on the task and particular scene and labelling every single pixel is not always necessary. We pursue these observations in developing a more modular and flexible approach to multi-class parsing of RGBD data based on learning strategies for combining independent binary object-vs-background segmentations in place of the usual monolithic multi-label CRF approach. Parameters for the independent binary segmentation models can be learned very efficiently, and the combination strategy---learned using reinforcement learning---can be set independently and can vary over different tasks and environments. Accuracy is comparable to state-of-art methods on a subset of the NYU-V2 dataset of indoor scenes, while providing additional flexibility and modularity.

We have developed an efficient Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) selection method using 18-band Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) fitting in mid-infrared (mid-IR). AGNs are often obscured by gas and dust, and those obscured AGNs tend to be missed in optical, UV and soft X-ray observations. Mid-IR light can help us to recover them in an obscuration free way using their thermal emission. On the other hand, Star-Forming Galaxies (SFG) also have strong PAH emission features in mid-IR. Hence, establishing an accurate method to separate populations of AGN and SFG is important. However, in previous mid-IR surveys, only 3 or 4 filters were available, and thus the selection was limited. We combined AKARI's continuous 9 mid-IR bands with WISE and Spitzer data to create 18 mid-IR bands for AGN selection. Among 4682 galaxies in the AKARI NEP deep field, 1388 are selected to be AGN hosts, which implies an AGN fraction of 29.6$\pm$0.8$\%$ (among them 47$\%$ are Seyfert 1.8 and 2). Comparing the result from SED fitting into WISE and Spitzer colour-colour diagram reveals that Seyferts are often missed by previous studies. Our result has been tested by stacking median magnitude for each sample. Using X-ray data from Chandra, we compared the result of our SED fitting with WISE's colour box selection. We recovered more X-ray detected AGN than previous methods by 20$\%$.

We study the problem of Arnold's diffusion in an example of isochronous system by using a geometrical method known as Windows Method. Despite the simple features of this example, we show that the absence of an anisochrony term leads to several substantial difficulties in the application of the method, requiring some additional devices as non-equally spaced transition chains and variable windows. In this way we are able to obtain a set of fast orbits whose drifting time matches, up to a constant, the time obtained via variational methods.

We construct for the first time conditionally decomposable $d$-polytopes for $d \ge 4$. These examples have any number of vertices from $4d-4$ upwards. A polytope is said to be conditionally decomposable if one polytope combinatorially equivalent to it is decomposable (with respect to the Minkowski sum) and another one combinatorially equivalent to it is indecomposable. In our examples, one has $4d-2$ vertices and is the sum of a line segment and a bi-pyramid over a prism. The other ones have $4d-4$ vertices, and one of them is the sum of a line segment and a $2$-fold pyramid over a prism. We show that the latter examples have the minimum number of vertices among all conditionally decomposable $d$-polytopes that have a line segment for a summand.

In this work we study various continuous finite element discretization for two dimensional hyperbolic partial differential equations, varying the polynomial space (Lagrangian on equispaced, Lagrangian on quadrature points (Cubature) and Bernstein), the stabilization techniques (streamline-upwind Petrov-Galerkin, continuous interior penalty, orthogonal subscale stabilization) and the time discretization (Runge-Kutta (RK), strong stability preserving RK and deferred correction). This is an extension of the one dimensional study by Michel S. et al J. Sci. Comput. (2021), whose results do not hold in multi-dimensional frameworks. The study ranks these schemes based on efficiency (most of them are mass-matrix free), stability and dispersion error, providing the best CFL and stabilization coefficients. The challenges in two-dimensions are related to the Fourier analysis. Here, we perform it on two types of periodic triangular meshes varying the angle of the advection, and we combine all the results for a general stability analysis. Furthermore, we introduce additional high order viscosity to stabilize the discontinuities, in order to show how to use these methods for tests of practical interest. All the theoretical results are thoroughly validated numerically both on linear and non-linear problems, and error-CPU time curves are provided. Our final conclusions suggest that Cubature elements combined with SSPRK and OSS stabilization is the most promising combination.

We present a scheme to express a bath correlation function (BCF) corresponding to a given spectral density (SD) as a sum of damped harmonic oscillations. Such a representation is needed, for example, in many open quantum system approaches. To this end we introduce a class of fit functions that enables us to model ohmic as well as superohmic behavior. We show that these functions allow for an analytic calculation of the BCF using pole expansions of the temperature dependent hyperbolic cotangent. We demonstrate how to use these functions to fit spectral densities exemplarily for cases encountered in the description of photosynthetic light harvesting complexes. Finally, we compare absorption spectra obtained for different fits with exact spectra and show that it is crucial to take properly into account the behavior at small frequencies when fitting a given SD.

The \textsc{MG-MAMPOSSt} code is a license-free \textsc{Fortran95} code to perform tests of General Relativity (GR) through the analyses of kinematical data of galaxy clusters based on the Jeans' equation. The code is based on the \textsc{MAMPOSSt} method, and extends the original code through new parametrisations of the gravitational potential for general families of gravity theories beyond GR aimed to explain dark energy. \textsc{MG-MAMPOSSt} is further supplemented with a new capability to produce weak lensing forecasts for joint kinematic+lensing analysis. This document provides a technical description of the code's new features, functionality with respect to the original version, and instructions on its installation and use. Finally, we explain how the code could be further modified to include a wider family of gravity models and/or density profiles, that could allow its application in broader theoretical frameworks as well as other physical systems such as stellar clusters. A detailed forecast analysis for the modified gravity models currently implemented in the code can be found in the paper of Pizzuti et al., 2021.

We investigate the transport problem that a spinful matter wave is incident on a strong localized spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensate in optical lattices, where the localization is admitted by atom interaction only existing at one particular site, and the spin-orbit coupling arouse spatial rotation of the spin texture. We find that tuning the spin orientation of the localized Bose-Einstein condensate can lead to spin-nonreciprocal / spin-reciprocal transport, meaning the transport properties are dependent on / independent of the spin orientation of incident waves. In the former case, we obtain the conditions to achieve transparency, beam-splitting, and blockade of the incident wave with a given spin orientation, and furthermore the ones to perfectly isolate incident waves of different spin orientation, while in the latter, we obtain the condition to maximize the conversion of different spin states. The result may be useful to develop a novel spinful matter wave valve that integrates spin switcher, beam-splitter, isolator, and converter. The method can also be applied to other real systems, e.g., realizing perfect isolation of spin states in magnetism, which is otherwise rather difficult.

With the emergence of onboard vision processing for areas such as the internet of things (IoT), edge computing and autonomous robots, there is increasing demand for computationally efficient convolutional neural network (CNN) models to perform real-time object detection on resource constraints hardware devices. Tiny-YOLO is generally considered as one of the faster object detectors for low-end devices and is the basis for our work. Our experiments on this network have shown that Tiny-YOLO can achieve 0.14 frames per second(FPS) on the Raspberry Pi 3 B, which is too slow for soccer playing autonomous humanoid robots detecting goal and ball objects. In this paper we propose an adaptation to the YOLO CNN model named xYOLO, that can achieve object detection at a speed of 9.66 FPS on the Raspberry Pi 3 B. This is achieved by trading an acceptable amount of accuracy, making the network approximately 70 times faster than Tiny-YOLO. Greater inference speed-ups were also achieved on a desktop CPU and GPU. Additionally we contribute an annotated Darknet dataset for goal and ball detection.

An almost perfect round hole of CO-line emission with a diameter of 3.7 pc was found in a molecular cloud (MC) centered on G35.75-0.25 ($l = 35^\circ.75, b = -0^\circ.25$) at radial velocity of 28 km s$^{-1}$. The hole is quiet in radio continuum emission, unlike the usual supernova remnants (SNR), and the molecular edge is only weakly visible in 8 and 24 $\mu$m dust emissions. The hole may be either a fully evolved molecular bubble around a young stellar object (YSO), or a relic of a radio-quiet SNR that has already stopped expansion after rapid evolution in the dense MC as a buried SNR. Because G35.75 exhibits quite different properties from YSO-driven bubbles of the same size, we prefer the latter interpretation. Existence of such a "dark" SNR would affect the estimation of the supernova rate, and therefore the star formation history in the Galaxy.

In an attempt to study whether the formation of brown dwarfs (BDs) takes place as a scaled-down version of low-mass stars, we conducted IRAM30m/MAMBO-II observations at 1.2 mm in a sample of 12 proto-BD candidates selected from Spitzer/IRAC data in the B213-L1495 clouds in Taurus. Subsequent observations with the CSO at 350 micron, VLA at 3.6 and 6 cm, and IRAM30m/EMIR in the 12CO(1-0), 13CO(1-0), and N2H+(1-0) transitions were carried out toward the two most promising Spitzer/IRAC source(s), J042118 and J041757. J042118 is associated with a compact (<10 arcsec or <1400 AU) and faint source at 350 micron, while J041757 is associated with a partially resolved (~16 arcsec or ~2000 AU) and stronger source emitting at centimetre wavelengths with a flat spectral index. The corresponding masses of the dust condensations are ~1 and ~5 Mjup for J042118 and J041757, respectively. In addition, about 40 arcsec to the northeast of J041757 we detect a strong and extended submillimetre source, J041757-NE, which is not associated with NIR/FIR emission down to our detection limits, but is clearly detected in 13CO and N2H+ at ~7 km/s, and for which we estimated a total mass of ~100 Mjup, close to the mass required to be gravitationally bound. In summary, our observational strategy has allowed us to find in B213-L1495 two proto-BD candidates and one pre-substellar core candidate, whose properties seem to be consistent with a scaled-down version of low-mass stars.

In the last decade, interest in projective MV-algebras has grown greatly; see [1], [5] e [6]. In this paper we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for n elements of the free n-generator MV-algebra to generate a projective MV-algebra. This generalizes the characterization of the n free generators proved in [7]. Using this, some classes of projective generators for bigenerated MV-algebras, are given. In particular, some effective procedures to determine, by elementary methods, generators of projective MV-algebras are.

A Magnetar-Asteroid Impact Model for FRB 200428 Associated with an X-ray Burst from SGR 1935+2154

Very recently, an extremely bright fast radio burst (FRB) 200428 with two sub-millisecond pulses was discovered to come from the direction of the Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154, and an X-ray burst (XRB) counterpart was detected simultaneously. These observations favor magnetar-based interior-driven models. In this Letter, we propose a different model for FRB 200428 associated with an XRB from SGR 1935+2154, in which a magnetar with high proper velocity encounters an asteroid of mass $\sim10^{20}\,$g. This infalling asteroid in the stellar gravitational field is first possibly disrupted tidally into a great number of fragments at radius $\sim {\rm a\,\,few}$ times $10^{10}\,$cm, and then slowed around the Alfv$\acute{\rm e}$n radius by an ultra-strong magnetic field and in the meantime two major fragments of mass $\sim 10^{17}\,$g that cross magnetic field lines produce two pulses of FRB 200428. The whole asteroid is eventually accreted onto the poles along magnetic field lines, impacting the stellar surface, creating a photon-e$^\pm$ pair fireball trapped initially in the stellar magnetosphere, and further leading to an XRB. We show that this gravitationally-powered model can interpret all of the observed features self-consistently.

We apply a novel background-independent and scale-free quantization and regularization scheme, the $N$-cutoffs, to scalar fields and metric fluctuations on a maximally symmetric but non-compact spacetime, namely hyperbolic space. The $N$-cutoffs are a regularization on the spectrum of the fields' fluctuation modes, and are implemented on a continuous quantum number here. For both the scalar field and metric fluctuations, we find that the inclusion of increasingly many field modes tends to reduce the negative curvature of the hyperbolic space, leading to vanishing values in the limit of removing the cutoff. This phenomenon is analogous to the results found for those fields on a self-consistent spherical background.

Adaptive and Fair Transformation for Recoverable Mutual Exclusion

Mutual exclusion is one of the most commonly used techniques to handle contention in concurrent systems. Traditionally, mutual exclusion algorithms have been designed under the assumption that a process does not fail while acquiring/releasing a lock or while executing its critical section. However, failures do occur in real life, potentially leaving the lock in an inconsistent state. This gives rise to the problem of recoverable mutual exclusion (RME) that involves designing a mutual exclusion (ME) algorithm that can tolerate failures, while maintaining safety and liveness properties. In this work, we present a framework that transforms any algorithm that solves the RME problem into an algorithm that can also simultaneously adapt to (1) the number of processes competing for the lock, as well as (2) the number of failures that have occurred in the recent past, while maintaining the correctness and performance properties of the underlying RME algorithm. Additionally, the algorithm constructed as a result of this transformation adds certain desirable properties like fairness (a variation of FCFS) and bounded recovery. Assume that the worst-case RMR complexity of a critical section request in the underlying RME algorithm is $R(n)$. Then, our framework yields an RME algorithm for which the worst-case RMR complexity of a critical section request is given by $\mathcal{O}(\min \{\ddot{c}, \sqrt{F+1}, R(n)\})$, where $\ddot{c}$ denotes the point contention of the request and $F$ denotes the number of failures in the recent past of the request. We further extend our framework by presenting a novel memory reclamation algorithm to bound the worst-case space complexity of the RME algorithm. The memory reclamation techniques maintain the fairness, performance and correctness properties of our transformation and is general enough to be employed to bound the space of other RME algorithms.

This paper tells the story leading to ICANN's selection of seven new Internet top level domains in November 2000. In implementing proposals to expand the name space, ICANN adopted an approach far different from Jon Postel's lightweight proposals. ICANN staff, in setting the ground rules for considering new gTLDs, emphasized that only a few applicants would be allowed in, and imposed strict threshold requirements. Staff determined that the Board should pick TLDs by looking at all relevant aspects of every proposal, and deciding which ones presented the best overall combination of a variety of incommensurable factors. Aspects of the resulting process were predictable: Anyone familiar with the FCC comparative hearing process for broadcast licenses can attest that this sort of ad hoc comparison is necessarily subjective, lending itself to arbitrariness and biased application. Yet the process had advantages that appealed to ICANN decision-makers. The Board members would be free to take their best shots, in a situationally sensitive manner, at advancing the policies they thought important. The approach allowed ICANN to maintain the greatest degree of control. The end result, though, was a process stunning in its arbitrariness, a bad parody of fact-bound, situationally sensitive (rather than rules-based) decision-making.

We perform a comprehensive analysis of the pion-photon transition form factor $F_{\pi \gamma}(Q^2)$ involving the transverse momentum corrections with the present CLEO experimental data, in which the contributions beyond the leading Fock state have been taken into consideration. As is well-known, the leading Fock-state contribution dominates of $F_{\pi \gamma}(Q^2)$ at large momentum transfer ($Q^2$) region. One should include the contributions beyond the leading Fock state in small $Q^2$ region. In this paper, we construct a phenomenological expression to estimate the contributions beyond the leading Fock state based on its asymptotic behavior at $Q^2\to0$. Our present theoretical results agree well with the experimental data in the whole $Q^2$ region. Then, we extract some useful information of the pionic leading twist-2 distribution amplitude (DA) by comparing our results of $F_{\pi \gamma}(Q^2)$ with the CLEO data. By taking best fit, we have the DA moments, $a_2(\mu_0^2)=0.002^{+0.063}_{-0.054}$, $a_4(\mu_0^2)=-0.022_{-0.012}^{+0.026}$ and all of higher moments, which are closed to the asymptotic-like behavior of the pion wavefunction.

We report the results of long-term simultaneous X-ray and UV monitoring of the nearby (z=0.03145) Seyfert 1.5 galaxy Mrk 817 using the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory XRT and UVOT. Prior work has revealed that the X-ray flux from Mrk 817 has increased by a factor of 40 over the last 40 years, whereas the UV emission has changed by a factor of 2.3. The X-ray emission of Mrk 817 now compares to some of the brightest Seyferts, but it has been poorly studied in comparison. We find that the X-ray (0.3-10.0 keV) and the UVM2 (roughly 2000--2500 Angstrom) fluxes have fractional variability amplitudes of 0.35 and 0.18, respectively, over the entire monitoring period (2017 Jan. 2 to 2018 Apr. 20). A cross-correlation analysis is performed on the X-ray (0.3-10.0 keV) and UVM2 light curves over the entire monitoring period, a period of less frequent monitoring (2017 Jan. 2 to 2017 Dec. 11), and a period of more frequent monitoring (2018 Jan. 12 to 2018 Apr. 20). The analysis reveals no significant correlation between the two at any given lag for all monitoring periods. Especially given that reverberation studies have found significant lags between optical/UV continuum bands and broad optical lines in Mrk 817, the lack of a significant X-ray-UV correlation may point to additional complexities in the inner or intermediate disk. Mechanical (e.g.,a funnel in the inner disk) and/or relativistic beaming of the X-ray emission could potentially explain the lack of a correlation. Alternatively, scattering in an equatorial wind could also diminish the ability of more isotropic X-ray emission to heat the disk itself.

The issue concerning the existence of wormhole states in locally supersymmetric minisuperspace models with matter is addressed. Wormhole states are apparently absent in models obtained from the more general theory of N=1 supergravity with supermatter. A Hartle-Hawking type solution can be found, even though some terms (which are scalar field dependent) cannot be determined in a satisfactory way. A possible cause is investigated here. As far as the wormhole situation is concerned, we argue here that the type of Lagrange multipliers and fermionic derivative ordering one uses may make a difference. A proposal is made for supersymmetric quantum wormholes to also be invested with a Hilbert space structure, associated with a maximal analytical extension of the corresponding minisuperspace.

In the perovskite Ti oxide RTiO3 (R=rare-earth ions), the Ti t2g orbitals and spins in the 3d^1 state couple each other through the strong electron correlations, resulting in a rich variety of orbital-spin phases. The origin and nature of orbital-spin states of these Mott insulators have been intensively studied. In this article, we review the studies on orbital physics in the perovskite titanates. We focus on the following three topics: (1) the origin and nature of the ferromagnetism as well as the orbital ordering in the compounds with relatively small R ions such as GdTiO3 and YTiO3, (2) the origin of the G-type antiferromagnetism and the orbital state in LaTiO3, and (3) the orbital-spin structures in other AFM(G) compounds with relatively large R ions (R=Ce, Pr, Nd and Sm). On the basis of these discussions, we discuss the whole phase diagram together with mechanisms of the magnetic phase transition. We also show that the Ti t2g degeneracy is inherently lifted in the titanates, which allows the single-band descriptions of the ground-state and low-energy electronic structures as a good starting point. Our analyses indicate that these compounds offer touchstone materials described by the single-band Hubbard model on the cubic lattice. From this insight, we also reanalyze the hole-doped titanates. Experimentally revealed filling-dependent and bandwidth-dependent properties and the critical behavior of the metal-insulator transitions are discussed in the light of theories based on the single-band Hubbard models.
