Quantum states with non-Gaussian statistics generated by optical parametric oscillators (OPO) with fluctuating parameters are studied by means of the Kurtosis excess of the external field quadratures. The field generated is viewed as the response of a nonlinear device to the fluctuations of laser pump amplitude and frequency, crystal temperature and cavity detuning, in addition to quantum noise sources. The Kurtosis excess has been evaluated perturbatively up to the third order in the strength of the crystal nonlinear coupling factor and the second order in the classical fluctuating parameters. Applied to the device described in Opt. Expr. 13, 948-956 (2005) the model has given values of the Kurtosi excess in good agreement with the measured ones.

We study sharpness of various generalizations of Frostman's lemma. These generalizations provide better estimates for the lower Hausdorff dimension of measures. As a corollary, we prove that if a generalized anisotropic gradient $(\partial_1^{m_1} f, \partial_2^{m_2} f,\ldots, \partial_d^{m_d} f)$ of a function $f$ in $d$ variables is a measure of bounded variation, then this measure is absolutely continuous with respect to the Hausdorff $d-1$ dimensional measure.

Robust Multitarget Tracking in Interference Environments: A Message-Passing Approach

Multitarget tracking in the interference environments suffers from the nonuniform, unknown and time-varying clutter, resulting in dramatic performance deterioration. We address this challenge by proposing a robust multitarget tracking algorithm, which estimates the states of clutter and targets simultaneously by the message-passing (MP) approach. We define the non-homogeneous clutter with a finite mixture model containing a uniform component and multiple nonuniform components. The measured signal strength is utilized to estimate the mean signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of targets and the mean clutter-to-noise ratio (CNR) of clutter, which are then used as additional feature information of targets and clutter to improve the performance of discrimination of targets from clutter. We also present a hybrid data association which can reason over correspondence between targets, clutter, and measurements. Then, a unified MP algorithm is used to infer the marginal posterior probability distributions of targets, clutter, and data association by splitting the joint probability distribution into a mean-field approximate part and a belief propagation part. As a result, a closed-loop iterative optimization of the posterior probability distribution can be obtained, which can effectively deal with the coupling between target tracking, clutter estimation and data association. Simulation results demonstrate the performance superiority and robustness of the proposed multitarget tracking algorithm compared with the probability hypothesis density (PHD) filter and the cardinalized PHD (CPHD) filter.

"Changing look" Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are a subset of Seyfert galaxies characterized by rapid transitions between Compton-thin and Compton-thick regimes. In their Compton-thin state, the central engine is less obscured, hence spectroscopy or timing observations can probe their innermost structures. However, it is not clear if the observed emission features and the Compton hump are associated with relativistic reflection onto the accretion disc, or complex absorption by distant, absorbing gas clouds passing by the observer's line-of-sight. Here, we investigate these two scenarios under the scope of X-ray polarimetry, providing the first polarisation predictions for an archetypal "changing look" AGN: NGC 1365. We explore the resulting polarisation emerging from lamp-post emission and scattering off an accretion disc in the immediate vicinity of a supermassive black hole. The computed polarisation signatures are compared to the results of an absorption-dominated model, where high column density gas partially covers the central source. While the shape of the polarisation spectrum is similar, the two models differ in net polarisation percentage, with the relativistic reflection scenario producing significantly stronger polarisation. Additionally, the variation of the polarisation position angle is distinctly different between both scenarios: the reflection-dominated model produces smooth rotations of the polarisation angle with photon energy whereas circumnuclear absorption causes an orthogonal switch of the polarisation angle between the soft and the hard X-ray bands. By comparing the predicted polarisation of NGC 1365 to the detectability levels of X-ray polarimetry mission concepts proposed in the past, we demonstrate that with a large, soft X-ray observatory or a medium-sized mission equipped with a hard (6 - 35 keV) polarimeter, the correct interpretation would be unambiguous.

The standard cosmographic approach consists in performing a series expansion of a cosmological observable around $z=0$ and then using the data to constrain the cosmographic (or kinematic) parameters at present time. Such a procedure works well if applied to redshift ranges inside the $z$-series convergence radius ($z<1$), but can be problematic if we want to cover redshift intervals that fall outside the $z-$series convergence radius. This problem can be circumvented if we work with the $y-$redshift, $y=z/(1+z)$, or the scale factor, $a=1/(1+z)=1-y$, for example. In this paper, we use the scale factor $a$ as the variable of expansion. We expand the luminosity distance and the Hubble parameter around an arbitrary $\tilde{a}$ and use the Supernovae Ia (SNe Ia) and the Hubble parameter data to estimate $H$, $q$, $j$ and $s$ at $z\ne0$ ($\tilde{a}\neq1$). We show that the last relevant term for both expansions is the third. Since the third order expansion of $d_L(z)$ has one parameter less than the third order expansion of $H(z)$, we also consider, for completeness, a fourth order expansion of $d_L(z)$. For the third order expansions, the results obtained from both SNe Ia and $H(z)$ data are incompatible with the $\Lambda$CDM model at $2\sigma$ confidence level, but also incompatible with each other. When the fourth order expansion of $d_L(z)$ is taken into account, the results obtained from SNe Ia data are compatible with the $\Lambda$CDM model at $2\sigma$ confidence level, but still remains incompatible with results obtained from $H(z)$ data. These conflicting results may indicate a tension between the current SNe Ia and $H(z)$ data sets.

We prove that for an unbounded metric space $X$, the minimal character $m\chi(\check X)$ of a point of the Higson corona $\check X$ of $X$ is equal to $\mathfrak u$ if $X$ has asymptotically isolated balls and to $\max\{\mathfrak u,\mathfrak d\}$ otherwise. This implies that under $\mathfrak u<\mathfrak d$ a metric space $X$ of bounded geometry is coarsely equivalent to the Cantor macro-cube $2^{<\IN}$ if and only if $\dim(\check X)=0$ and $m\chi(\check X)=\mathfrak d$. This contrasts with a result of Protasov saying that under CH the coronas of any two asymptotically zero-dimensional unbounded metric separable spaces are homeomorphic.

Most asteroids are somewhat elongated and have non-zero lightcurve amplitudes. Such asteroids can be detected in large-scale sky surveys even if their mean magnitudes are fainter than the stated sensitivity limits. We explore the detection of elongated asteroids under a set of idealized but useful approximations. We find that objects up to 1 magnitude fainter than a survey's sensitivity limit are likely to be detected, and that the effect is most pronounced for asteroids with lightcurve amplitudes 0.1-0.4 mag.This imposes a bias on the derived size and shape distributions of the population that must be properly accounted for.

We propose a scheme to tailor nanostructured trapping potentials for ultracold atoms. Our trapping scheme combines an engineered extension of repulsive optical dipole forces at short distances and attractive Casimir-Polder forces at long distances between an atom and a nanostructured surface. This extended dipole force takes advantage of excited-state dressing by plasmonically-enhanced intensity to doubly dress the ground state and create a strongly repulsive potential with spatially tunable characteristics. In this work, we show that, under realistic experimental conditions, this method can be used to trap Rubidium atoms close to surfaces (tens of nanometers) or to realize nanostructured lattices with subwavelength periods. The influence of the various losses and heating rate mechanism in such traps is characterized. As an example we present a near-field optical lattice with 100nm period and study the tunability of lattice and trapping depths. Such lattices can enhance energy scales with interesting perspectives for the simulation of strongly-correlated physics. Our method can be extended to other atomic species and to other near-field hybrid systems where a strong atom-light interaction can be expected.

The one-dimensional kinetic contact process with parallel update is introduced and studied by the mean-field approximation and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. Contrary to a more conventional scenario with single active phase for 1d models with Ising-like variables, we find two different adjacent active phases in the parameter space of the proposed model with a second-order transition between them and a multiphase point where the active and the absorbing phases meet. While one of the active phases is quite standard with a smooth average filling of the space-time lattice, the second active phase demonstrates a very subtle (hidden) percolating order which becomes manifest only after certain transformation from the original model. We determine the percolation order parameter for active-active phase transition and discuss such hidden orders in other low-dimensional systems. Our MC data demonstrate finite-size critical and near-critical scaling of the order parameter relaxation for the two phase transitions. We find three independent critical indices for them and conclude that they both belong to the directed percolation universality class.

The cycle-by-cycle variations in heat release for a simulated spark-ignited engine are analyzed within a turbulent combustion model in terms of some basic parameters: the characteristic length of the unburned eddies entrained within the flame front, a characteristic turbulent speed, and the location of the ignition kernel. The evolution of the simulated time series with the fuel-air equivalence ratio, phi, from lean mixtures to over stoichiometric conditions, is examined and compared with previous experiments. Fluctuations on the characteristic length of unburned eddies are found to be essential to simulate heat release cycle-to-cycle variations and recover experimental results. Relative to the non-linear analysis of the system, it is remarkable that at fuel ratios around phi=0.65, embedding and surrogate procedures show that the dimensionality of the system is small.

We develop a mathematical construction of non-Gaussian fields whose bispectra satisfy the single-clock inflation consistency relation. At the same order that our basis for bispectra recovers the two simplest single clock templates, we also find a third orthogonal template which has the single clock squeezed limit, peaks in folded configurations, and has very small coupling in the equilateral limit. We explore the map between templates and operators in a very general Lagrangian for single-clock fluctuations and find no significant overlap between the new template and models in the literature. We comment on the physical implications of this conclusion. Our findings add support for the idea that both theory and data driven considerations will be best served if next generation non-Gaussianity constraints are made in a basis that uses the degree of coupling between long and short wavelength modes as an organizing principle.

Incompressible fields are of a special importance in electrodynamics, fluid mechanics, and quantum mechanics. We shall derive a few expressions for such fields in a Riemannian manifold, and show how to generate an incompressible field from an arbitrary set of scalar differentiable functions. The concept of compressibility removing factors of an arbitrary vector field is introduced and utilized to obtain from an arbitrary vector field an incompressible one that has the same vector surfaces as the original field. A general expression for compressibility removing factors of a vector field is derived. The method is applied to central fields.

An Efficient End-to-End 3D Voxel Reconstruction based on Neural Architecture Search

Using neural networks to represent 3D objects has become popular. However, many previous works employ neural networks with fixed architecture and size to represent different 3D objects, which lead to excessive network parameters for simple objects and limited reconstruction accuracy for complex objects. For each 3D model, it is desirable to have an end-to-end neural network with as few parameters as possible to achieve high-fidelity reconstruction. In this paper, we propose an efficient voxel reconstruction method utilizing neural architecture search (NAS) and binary classification. Taking the number of layers, the number of nodes in each layer, and the activation function of each layer as the search space, a specific network architecture can be obtained based on reinforcement learning technology. Furthermore, to get rid of the traditional surface reconstruction algorithms (e.g., marching cube) used after network inference, we complete the end-to-end network by classifying binary voxels. Compared to other signed distance field (SDF) prediction or binary classification networks, our method achieves significantly higher reconstruction accuracy using fewer network parameters.

Several abstract machines that operate on symbolic input alphabets have been proposed in the last decade, for example, symbolic automata or lattice automata. Applications of these types of automata include software security analysis and natural language processing. While these models provide means to describe words over infinite input alphabets, there is no considerable work on symbolic output (as present in transducers) alphabets, or even abstraction (widening) thereof. Furthermore, established approaches for transforming, for example, minimizing or reducing, finite-state machines that produce output on states or transitions are not applicable. A notion of equivalence of this type of machines is needed to make statements about whether or not transformations maintain the semantics. We present abstract transducers as a new form of finite-state transducers. Both their input alphabet and the output alphabet is composed of abstract words, where one abstract word represents a set of concrete words. The mapping between these representations is described by abstract word domains. By using words instead of single letters, abstract transducers provide the possibility of lookaheads to decide on state transitions to conduct. Since both the input symbol and the output symbol on each transition is an abstract entity, abstraction techniques can be applied naturally. We apply abstract transducers as the foundation for sharing task artifacts for reuse in context of program analysis and verification, and describe task artifacts as abstract words. A task artifact is any entity that contributes to an analysis task and its solution, for example, candidate invariants or source code to weave.

We introduce explicit holonomy perturbations of the Chern-Simons functional on a 3-ball containing a pair of unknotted arcs. These perturbations give us a concrete local method for making the moduli spaces of flat singular SO(3) connections relevant to Kronheimer and Mrowka's singular instanton knot homology non-degenerate. The mechanism for this study is a (Lagrangian) intersection diagram which arises, through restriction of representations, from a tangle decomposition of a knot. When one of the tangles is trivial, our perturbations allow us to study isolated intersections of two Lagrangians to produce minimal generating sets for singular instanton knot homology. The (symplectic) manifold where this intersection occurs corresponds to the traceless character variety of the four-punctured 2-sphere, which we identify with the familiar pillowcase. We investigate the image in this pillowcase of the traceless representations of tangles obtained by removing a trivial tangle from 2-bridge knots and torus knots. Using this, we compute the singular instanton homology of a variety of torus knots. In many cases, our computations allow us to understand non-trivial differentials in the spectral sequence from Khovanov homology to singular instanton homology.

Classical $W$-algebras in higher dimensions are constructed. This is achieved by generalizing the classical Gel'fand-Dickey brackets to the commutative limit of the ring of classical pseudodifferential operators in arbitrary dimension. These $W$-algebras are the Poisson structures associated with a higher dimensional version of the Khokhlov-Zabolotskaya hierarchy (dispersionless KP-hierarchy). The two dimensional case is worked out explicitly and it is shown that the role of Diff$S(1)$ is taken by the algebra of generators of local diffeomorphisms in two dimensions.

We present SO and SO2 observations in the region of the low mass protostar IRAS2/NGC1333. The East-West outflow originating from this source has been mapped in four transitions of both SO and SO2. In addition, CS observations published in the literature have been used. We compute the SO, SO2 and CS column densities and the physical conditions at several positions of the outflow using LTE and a non-LTE LVG approximations. The SO2/SO and CS/SO abundance ratios are compared with the theoretical predictions of a chemical model adapted to the physical conditions in the IRAS2 outflow. The SO2/SO abundance ratios are constant in the two lobes of the outflow whereas CS/SO is up to 6 times lower in the shocked gas of the East lobe than in the West one. The comparison with the chemical model allows us to constrain the age of the outflow produced by IRAS2 to >5e3yr. We find low densities and temperatures for the outflow of IRAS2 (< 1e6 cm-3 and >70 K) from SO and SO2 emission probably because the two molecules trace the cooled entrained material. The East lobe of the outflow shows denser gas compared to the West lobe. We also discuss some constraints on the depleted form of sulphur.

We present the transient nature of INTEGRAL source IGR J17285-2922, identified from a single period of activity during an IBIS/ISGRI Galactic Centre Deep Exposure in September 2003. The source has a maximum detection significance of 14 sigma in the 20-100 keV energy range and exhibits a flux of 6.5 mCrab before it moves out of the ISGRI field of view. The source is visible to at least 150 keV and its spectrum can be fit with a power law slope of Gamma=2.1+/-0.17; a more physical model could not be fit due to poor statistics. Detected characteristics are consistent with the source being a Galactic low-mass X-ray binary harbouring a black hole or neutron star.

We report new multi-colour photometry and high-resolution spectroscopic observations of the long-period variable V501 Aur, previously considered to be a weak-lined T-Tauri star belonging to the Taurus-Auriga star-forming region. The spectroscopic observations reveal that V501 Aur is a single-lined spectroscopic binary system with a 68.8-day orbital period, a slightly eccentric orbit (e ~ 0.03), and a systemic velocity discrepant from the mean of Taurus-Auriga. The photometry shows quasi-periodic variations on a different, ~55-day timescale that we attribute to rotational modulation by spots. No eclipses are seen. The visible object is a rapidly rotating (vsini ~ 25 km/s) early K star, which along with the rotation period implies it must be large (R > 26.3 Rsun), as suggested also by spectroscopic estimates indicating a low surface gravity. The parallax from the Gaia mission and other independent estimates imply a distance much greater than the Taurus-Auriga region, consistent with the giant interpretation. Taken together, this evidence together with a re-evaluation of the LiI~$\lambda$6707 and H$\alpha$ lines shows that V501 Aur is not a T-Tauri star, but is instead a field binary with a giant primary far behind the Taurus-Auriga star-forming region. The large mass function from the spectroscopic orbit and a comparison with stellar evolution models suggest the secondary may be an early-type main-sequence star.

POAS: A high-performance scheduling framework for exploiting Accelerator Level Parallelism

Heterogeneous computing is becoming mainstream in all scopes. This new era in computer architecture brings a new paradigm called Accelerator Level Parallelism (ALP). In ALP, accelerators are used concurrently to provide unprecedented levels of performance and energy efficiency. To reach that, there are many problems to be solved, one of the most challenging being co-execution. This paper develops a scheduling framework called POAS, a general method for providing co-execution to generic applications. Unlike other scheduling approaches, POAS does not directly schedule applications. Instead, it is a generic model that transforms any application to make it suitable for co-execution, so that it can be executed in ALP environments. Our proposal is composed of four differentiated steps: predict, optimize, adapt and schedule. During these phases, different modifications are implemented in the application to make it suitable to be executed in ALP environments. In this work we also apply our framework to a matrix multiplication case study, outlining the critical and most important steps to port the application with POAS. We evaluate our POAS-based implementation for matrix multiplication on a CPU/GPU/XPU environment using CPU cores, CUDA cores and tensor cores (XPU). Our experiments prove that co-execution in the studied scenario can benefit from ALP, yielding speedups of up to 45% with respect to using only one accelerator. The proven flexibility and potential of POAS make it an excellent candidate to reach ALP in future computer systems.

We factorize the infrared divergences of the non-forward BFKL Green function for a general t-channel projection of the color quantum numbers and study the properties of the infrared finite remainder in the case of color octet exchange. The octet Green function is compared with the singlet case for different values of the momentum transfer. The octet Green function plays an important role in the calculation of the finite remainder of the two-loop six-point MHV planar amplitude in N = 4 SYM as it was demonstrated by Bartels, Lipatov and one of us in http://arXiv.org/abs/arXiv:0802.2065 and http://arXiv.org/abs/arXiv:0807.0894. A comparison with regularizations preserving conformal invariance at large momentum transfer is shown.

Offline imitation learning (IL) is a powerful method to solve decision-making problems from expert demonstrations without reward labels. Existing offline IL methods suffer from severe performance degeneration under limited expert data. Including a learned dynamics model can potentially improve the state-action space coverage of expert data, however, it also faces challenging issues like model approximation/generalization errors and suboptimality of rollout data. In this paper, we propose the Discriminator-guided Model-based offline Imitation Learning (DMIL) framework, which introduces a discriminator to simultaneously distinguish the dynamics correctness and suboptimality of model rollout data against real expert demonstrations. DMIL adopts a novel cooperative-yet-adversarial learning strategy, which uses the discriminator to guide and couple the learning process of the policy and dynamics model, resulting in improved model performance and robustness. Our framework can also be extended to the case when demonstrations contain a large proportion of suboptimal data. Experimental results show that DMIL and its extension achieve superior performance and robustness compared to state-of-the-art offline IL methods under small datasets.

The magnetic moment is a fundamental property of particles. The measurement of these magnetic moments and the comparison with the values predicted by the standard model of particle physics is a way to test our understanding of the fundamental building blocks of our world. In some cases, such as for the electron, this comparison has resulted in confirmation of the standard model with incredible precision. In contrast, the magnetic moment of the muon has shown a long-standing disagreement in the measured and the predicted value. There is currently a tantalizing three-standard-deviation difference between the current best measurement (with a precision of 0.54 ppm) and the state-of-the-art standard model prediction. This represents one of the very few experimental hints for physics beyond the standard model. There are currently two major experimental efforts underway to improve the precision of the muon magnetic moment measurement. The first is an evolution of the E-821 experiment, originally located at Brookhaven National Laboratory in the United States. This is experiment, E-989, is located at Fermilab and will measure the spin precession rate of positive muons in a 14-m diameter storage ring using decay positrons. The goal of the experiment is to reduce the current experimental uncertainty by a factor of three. The experiment is currently being constructed and aims to start taking data in 2017. An alternative, and very complementary, experiment is being planned at J-PARC in Japan. This experiment, E-34, will utilize low energy, ultra-cold muons in a much smaller storage ring. This experiment aims for a similar precision to the Fermilab experiment and aims to begin data taking on a similar timescale.

Sum-product networks (SPNs) are a class of probabilistic graphical models that allow tractable marginal inference. However, the maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference in SPNs is NP-hard. We investigate MAP inference in SPNs from both theoretical and algorithmic perspectives. For the theoretical part, we reduce general MAP inference to its special case without evidence and hidden variables; we also show that it is NP-hard to approximate the MAP problem to $2^{n^\epsilon}$ for fixed $0 \leq \epsilon < 1$, where $n$ is the input size. For the algorithmic part, we first present an exact MAP solver that runs reasonably fast and could handle SPNs with up to 1k variables and 150k arcs in our experiments. We then present a new approximate MAP solver with a good balance between speed and accuracy, and our comprehensive experiments on real-world datasets show that it has better overall performance than existing approximate solvers.

We report the discovery and characterisation of a pair of sub-Neptunes transiting the bright K-dwarf TOI-1064 (TIC 79748331), initially detected in TESS photometry. To characterise the system, we performed and retrieved CHEOPS, TESS, and ground-based photometry, HARPS high-resolution spectroscopy, and Gemini speckle imaging. We characterise the host star and determine $T_{\rm eff, \star}=4734\pm67$ K, $R_{\star}=0.726\pm0.007$ $R_{\odot}$, and $M_{\star}=0.748\pm0.032$ $M_{\odot}$. We present a novel detrending method based on PSF shape-change modelling and demonstrate its suitability to correct flux variations in CHEOPS data. We confirm the planetary nature of both bodies and find that TOI-1064 b has an orbital period of $P_{\rm b}=6.44387\pm0.00003$ d, a radius of $R_{\rm b}=2.59\pm0.04$ $R_{\oplus}$, and a mass of $M_{\rm b}=13.5_{-1.8}^{+1.7}$ $M_{\oplus}$, whilst TOI-1064 c has an orbital period of $P_{\rm c}=12.22657^{+0.00005}_{-0.00004}$ d, a radius of $R_{\rm c}=2.65\pm0.04$ $R_{\oplus}$, and a 3$\sigma$ upper mass limit of 8.5 ${\rm M_{\oplus}}$. From the high-precision photometry we obtain radius uncertainties of $\sim$1.6%, allowing us to conduct internal structure and atmospheric escape modelling. TOI-1064 b is one of the densest, well-characterised sub-Neptunes, with a tenuous atmosphere that can be explained by the loss of a primordial envelope following migration through the protoplanetary disc. It is likely that TOI-1064 c has an extended atmosphere due to the tentative low density, however further RVs are needed to confirm this scenario and the similar radii, different masses nature of this system. The high-precision data and modelling of TOI-1064 b are important for planets in this region of mass-radius space, and it allows us to identify a trend in bulk density-stellar metallicity for massive sub-Neptunes that may hint at the formation of this population of planets.

The distributed synthesis problem is about constructing cor- rect distributed systems, i.e., systems that satisfy a given specification. We consider a slightly more general problem of distributed control, where the goal is to restrict the behavior of a given distributed system in order to satisfy the specification. Our systems are finite state machines that communicate via rendez-vous (Zielonka automata). We show decidability of the synthesis problem for all omega-regular local specifications, under the restriction that the communication graph of the system is acyclic. This result extends a previous decidability result for a restricted form of local reachability specifications.

The details of the Solar system's formation are still heavily debated. Questions remain about the formation locations of the giant planets, and the degree to which volatile material was mixed throughout the proto-planetary system. One diagnostic which offers great promise in helping to unravel the history of planet formation is the study of the level of deuteration in various Solar system bodies. For example, the D/H ratio of methane in the atmosphere of Titan can be used as a diagnostic of the initial conditions of the solar nebula within the region of giant planet formation, and can help us to determine where Titan (and, by extension, the Saturnian system) accreted its volatile material. The level of Titanian deuteration also has implications for both the sources and long term evolution of Titan's atmospheric composition. We present the results of observations taken in the 1.58 microns window using the NIFS spectrometer on the Gemini telescope, and model our data using the VSTAR line--by--line transfer model, which yields a D/H ratio for Titan's atmosphere of 143+/-16) x 10^{-6} [1]. We are currently in the process of modeling the Gemini high resolution GNIRS spectra using new sets of line parameters derived for methane in the region between 1.2-1.7 microns [2].

We are interested in nonlocal Eikonal Equations describing the evolution of interfaces moving with a nonlocal, non monotone velocity. For these equations, only the existence of global-in-time weak solutions is available in some particular cases. In this paper, we propose a new approach for proving uniqueness of the solution when the front is expanding. This approach simplifies and extends existing results for dislocation dynamics. It also provides the first uniqueness result for a Fitzhugh-Nagumo system. The key ingredients are some new perimeter estimates for the evolving fronts as well as some uniform interior cone property for these fronts.

Future airports are becoming more complex and congested with the increasing number of travellers. While the airports are more likely to become hotspots for potential conflicts to break out which can cause serious delays to flights and several safety issues. An intelligent algorithm which renders security surveillance more effective in detecting conflicts would bring many benefits to the passengers in terms of their safety, finance, and travelling efficiency. This paper details the development of a machine learning model to classify conflicting behaviour in a crowd. HRNet is used to segment the images and then two approaches are taken to classify the poses of people in the frame via multiple classifiers. Among them, it was found that the support vector machine (SVM) achieved the most performant achieving precision of 94.37%. Where the model falls short is against ambiguous behaviour such as a hug or losing track of a subject in the frame. The resulting model has potential for deployment within an airport if improvements are made to cope with the vast number of potential passengers in view as well as training against further ambiguous behaviours which will arise in an airport setting. In turn, will provide the capability to enhance security surveillance and improve airport safety.

Supersymmetry is a prominent candidate for physics beyond the standard model. In order to compute the spectrum of supersymmetric theories, we employ nonperturbative lattice QFT techniques which due to the discretisation of spacetime violate supersymmetry at finite lattice spacings. Care has to be taken then to restore supersymmetry in the continuum limit. We discuss a discretisation of the supersymmetric Nonlinear O(N) Sigma model in two dimensions and argue that supersymmetry may be restored by finetuning of a single parameter. Furthermore, we show preliminary results for the vacuum physics of N = 2 Super-Yang-Mills theory in three dimensions.

A review is given of the experimental status of the interlayer coupling energy in the cuprates. A second c-axis plasmon is identified in the double layer compound Y123 for various dopings. The anomalous transport properties along the c-direction and in the planar directions are compared to model calculations based on strongly anisotropic scattering. An excellent description of the optical data at optimal doping is obtained if an anomalously large anisotropy of the scattering rate between cold spots and hot spots is assumed. This raises questions as to the physical meaning of these parameters.

Accurate prediction of thermodynamic properties requires an extremely accurate representation of the free energy surface. Requirements are twofold -- first, the inclusion of the relevant finite-temperature mechanisms, and second, a dense volume-temperature grid on which the calculations are performed. A systematic workflow for such calculations requires computational efficiency and reliability, and has not been available within an ab initio framework so far. Here, we elucidate such a framework involving direct upsampling, thermodynamic integration and machine-learning potentials, allowing us to incorporate, in particular, the full effect of anharmonic vibrations. The improved methodology has a five-times speed-up compared to state-of-the-art methods. We calculate equilibrium thermodynamic properties up to the melting point for bcc Nb, magnetic fcc Ni, fcc Al and hcp Mg, and find remarkable agreement with experimental data. Strong impact of anharmonicity is observed specifically for Nb. The introduced procedure paves the way for the development of ab initio thermodynamic databases.

In this paper, we give an expository account of the geometric properties of the moduli stack of $G$-bundles. For $G$ an algebraic group over a base field and $X \to S$ a flat, finitely presented, projective morphism of schemes, we give a complete proof that the moduli stack $Bun_G$ is an algebraic stack locally of finite presentation over $S$ with schematic, affine diagonal. In the process, we prove some properties of $BG$ and Hom stacks. We then define a level structure on $Bun_G$ to provide alternative presentations of quasi-compact open substacks. Finally, we prove that $Bun_G$ is smooth over $S$ if $G$ is smooth and $X \to S$ is a relative curve.

In this paper, we construct a lax monoidal Topological Quantum Field Theory that computes virtual classes, in the Grothendieck ring of algebraic varieties, of $G$-representation varieties over manifolds with conic singularities, which we will call nodefolds. This construction is valid for any algebraic group $G$, in any dimension and also in the parabolic setting. In particular, this TQFT allow us to compute the virtual classes of representation varieties over complex singular planar curves. In addition, in the case $G = \mathrm{SL}_{2}(k)$, the virtual class of the associated character variety over a nodal closed orientable surface is computed both in the non-parabolic and in the parabolic scenarios.

We continue our investigation of the Kontsevich--Penner model, which describes intersection theory on moduli spaces both for open and closed curves. In particular, we show how Buryak's residue formula, which connects two generating functions of intersection numbers, appears in the general context of matrix models and tau-functions. This allows us to prove that the Kontsevich--Penner matrix integral indeed describes open intersection numbers. For arbitrary $N$ we show that the string and dilaton equations completely specify the solution of the KP hierarchy. We derive a complete family of the Virasoro and W-constraints, and using these constraints, we construct the cut-and-join operators. The case $N=1$, corresponding to open intersection numbers, is particularly interesting: for this case we obtain two different families of the Virasoro constraints, so that the difference between them describes the dependence of the tau-function on even times.

Construction of a supersymmetric extension of the Skyrme term was a long-standing problem because of the auxiliary field problem; that is, the auxiliary field may propagate and cannot be eliminated, and the problem of having fourth-order time derivative terms. In this paper, we construct for the first time a supersymmetric extension of the Skyrme term in four spacetime dimensions, in the manifestly supersymmetric superfield formalism that does not suffer from the auxiliary field problem. Chiral symmetry breaking in supersymmetric theories results not only in Nambu-Goldstone (NG) bosons (pions) but also in the same number of quasi-NG bosons so that the low-energy theory is described by an SL(N,C)-valued matrix field instead of SU(N) for NG bosons. The solution of auxiliary fields is trivial on the canonical branch of the auxiliary field equation, in which case our model results in a fourth-order derivative term that is not the Skyrme term. For the case of SL(2,C), we find explicitly a nontrivial solution to the algebraic auxiliary field equations that we call a non-canonical branch, which when substituted back into the Lagrangian gives a Skyrme-like model. If we restrict to a submanifold, where quasi-NG bosons are turned off, which is tantamount to restricting the Skyrme field to SU(2), then the fourth-order derivative term reduces exactly to the standard Skyrme term. Our model is the first example of a nontrivial auxiliary field solution in a multi-component model.

Safety goes first. Meeting and maintaining industry safety standards for robustness of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models require continuous monitoring for faults and performance drops. Deep learning models are widely used in industrial applications, e.g., computer vision, but the susceptibility of their performance to environment changes (e.g., noise) \emph{after deployment} on the product, are now well-known. A major challenge is detecting data distribution shifts that happen, comparing the following: {\bf (i)} development stage of AI and ML models, i.e., train/validation/test, to {\bf (ii)} deployment stage on the product (i.e., even after `testing') in the environment. We focus on a computer vision example related to autonomous driving and aim at detecting shifts that occur as a result of adding noise to images. We use the population stability index (PSI) as a measure of presence and intensity of shift and present results of our empirical experiments showing a promising potential for the PSI. We further discuss multiple aspects of model monitoring and robustness that need to be analyzed \emph{simultaneously} to achieve robustness for industry safety standards. We propose the need for and the research direction toward \emph{categorizations} of problem classes and examples where monitoring for robustness is required and present challenges and pointers for future work from a \emph{practical} perspective.

Interstellar grains are known to be important actors in the formation of interstellar molecules such as H$_2$, water, ammonia, and methanol. It has been suggested that the so-called interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs) are also formed on the interstellar grain icy surfaces by the combination of radicals via reactions assumed to have an efficiency equal to unity. In this work, we aim to investigate the robustness or weakness of this assumption by considering the case of acetaldehyde (CH$_3$CHO) as a starting study case. In the literature, it has been postulated that acetaldehyde is formed on the icy surfaces via the combination of HCO and CH$_3$. Here we report new theoretical computations on the efficiency of its formation. To this end, we coupled quantum chemical calculations of the energetics and kinetics of the reaction CH$_3$ + HCO, which can lead to the formation of CH$_3$CHO or CO + CH$_4$. Specifically, we combined reaction kinetics computed with the Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus (RRKM) theory (tunneling included) method with diffusion and desorption competitive channels. We provide the results of our computations in the format used by astrochemical models to facilitate their exploitation. Our new computations indicate that the efficiency of acetaldehyde formation on the icy surfaces is a complex function of the temperature and, more importantly, of the assumed diffusion over binding energy ratio $f$ of the CH$_3$ radical. If the ratio $f$ is $\geq$0.4, the efficiency is equal to unity in the range where the reaction can occur, namely between 12 and 30 K. However, if $f$ is smaller, the efficiency dramatically crashes: with $f$=0.3, it is at most 0.01. In addition, the formation of acetaldehyde is always in competition with that of CO + CH$_4$.

A Systematic Framework for Dynamically Optimizing Multi-User Wireless Video Transmission

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
In this paper, we formulate the collaborative multi-user wireless video transmission problem as a multi-user Markov decision process (MUMDP) by explicitly considering the users' heterogeneous video traffic characteristics, time-varying network conditions and the resulting dynamic coupling between the wireless users. These environment dynamics are often ignored in existing multi-user video transmission solutions. To comply with the decentralized nature of wireless networks, we propose to decompose the MUMDP into local MDPs using Lagrangian relaxation. Unlike in conventional multi-user video transmission solutions stemming from the network utility maximization framework, the proposed decomposition enables each wireless user to individually solve its own dynamic cross-layer optimization (i.e. the local MDP) and the network coordinator to update the Lagrangian multipliers (i.e. resource prices) based on not only current, but also future resource needs of all users, such that the long-term video quality of all users is maximized. However, solving the MUMDP requires statistical knowledge of the experienced environment dynamics, which is often unavailable before transmission time. To overcome this obstacle, we then propose a novel online learning algorithm, which allows the wireless users to update their policies in multiple states during one time slot. This is different from conventional learning solutions, which often update one state per time slot. The proposed learning algorithm can significantly improve the learning performance, thereby dramatically improving the video quality experienced by the wireless users over time. Our simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed MUMDP framework as compared to conventional multi-user video transmission solutions.

We show how a strongly driven single-mode oscillator coupled to a first-order dynamical system gives rise to induced absorption or gain of a weak probe beam, and associated fast or slow light depending on the detuning conditions. We derive the analytic solutions to the dynamic equations of motion, showing that the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) like response is a general phenomenology, potentially occurring in any nonlinear oscillator coupled to first-order dynamical systems. The resulting group delay (or advance) of the probe is fundamentally determined by the system damping rate. To illustrate the practical impact of this general theoretical framework, we quantitatively assess the observable consequences of either thermo-optic or free-carrier dispersion effects in conventional semiconductor microcavities in control/probe experiments, highlighting the generality of this physical mechanism and its potential for the realization of EIT-like phenomena in integrated and cost-effective photonic devices.

These properties give support to the young host galaxy interpretation of the extended light around QSOs at high-redshift. The rest-frame UV and UV-optical colours are inconsistent with the hypothesis of a scattered halo of light from the active nucleus by a simple optically-thin scattering process produced by dust or hot electrons. If the UV light is indeed stellar, star formation rates of hundreds of solar masses per year are implied, an order of magnitude larger than in field galaxies at similar redshifts and above. This might indicate that the QSO phenomenon is preferentially accompanied by enhanced galactic activity at high-redshift.

We present the results of a comparative period search on different time-scales and modelling of the ZZ Ceti (DAV) star GD 154. We determined six frequencies as normal modes and four rotational doublets around the ones having the largest amplitude. Two normal modes at 807.62 and 861.56 microHz have never been reported before. A rigorous test revealed remarkable intrinsic amplitude variability of frequencies at 839.14 and 861.56 microHz over a 50 d time-scale. In addition, the multimode pulsation changed to monoperiodic pulsation with an 843.15 microHz dominant frequency at the end of the observing run. The 2.76 microHz average rotational split detected led to a determination of a 2.1 d rotational period for GD 154. We searched for model solutions with effective temperatures and log g close to the spectroscopically determined ones. The best-fitting models resulting from the grid search have M_H between 6.3 x 10^-5 and 6.3 x 10^-7 M*, which means thicker hydrogen layer than the previous studies suggested. Our investigations show that mode trapping does not necessarily operate in all of the observed modes and the best candidate for a trapped mode is at 2484 microHz.

Supervised learning is a mainstream approach to audio signal enhancement (SE) and requires parallel training data consisting of both noisy signals and the corresponding clean signals. Such data can only be synthesised and are mismatched with real data, which can result in poor performance on real data. Moreover, clean signals may be inaccessible in certain scenarios, which renders this conventional approach infeasible. Here we explore SE using non-parallel training data consisting of noisy signals and noise, which can be easily recorded. We define the positive (P) and the negative (N) classes as signal inactivity and activity, respectively. We observe that the spectrogram patches of noise clips can be used as P data and those of noisy signal clips as unlabelled data. Thus, learning from positive and unlabelled data enables a convolutional neural network to learn to classify each spectrogram patch as P or N to enable SE.

The radical pair model has been successful in explaining behavioral characteristics of the geomagnetic compass believed to underlie the navigation capability of certain avian species. In this study, the spin dynamics of the radical pair model and decoherence therein are interpreted from a microscopic state transition point of view. This helps to elucidate the interplay between the hyperfine and Zeeman interactions that enables the avian compass, and the distinctive effects of nuclear and environmental decoherence on it. Using a quantum information theoretic quantifier of coherence, we find that nuclear decoherence induces new structure in the spin dynamics without materially affecting the compass action; environmental decoherence, on the other hand, completely disrupts it.

The discovery of $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by the LHCb Collaboration triggers predictions of more doubly charmed baryons. By taking into account both the $P$-wave excitations between the two charm quarks and the scattering of light pseudoscalar mesons off the ground state doubly charmed baryons, a set of negative-parity spin-1/2 doubly charmed baryons are predicted already from a unitarized version of leading order chiral perturbation theory. Moreover, employing heavy antiquark-diquark symmetry the relevant low-energy constants in the next-to-leading order are connected with those describing light pseudoscalar mesons scattering off charmed mesons, which have been well determined from lattice calculations and experimental data. Our calculations result in a spectrum richer than that of heavy mesons. We find two very narrow $J^P=1/2^-$ $\Omega_{cc}^P$, which very likely decay into $\Omega_{cc}\pi^0$ breaking isospin symmetry. In the isospin-1/2 $\Xi_{cc}^P$ sector, three states are predicted to exist below 4.2~GeV with the lowest one being narrow and the other two rather broad. We suggest to search for the $\Xi_{cc}^{P}$ states in the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}\pi^-$ mode. Searching for them and their analogues are helpful to establish the hadron spectrum.

A fast data acquisition (DAQ) system for axion dark matter searches utilizing a microwave resonant cavity, also known as axion haloscope searches, has been developed with a two-channel digitizer that can sample 16-bit amplitudes at rates up to 180 MSamples/s. First, we realized a practical DAQ efficiency of greater than 99% for a single DAQ channel, where the DAQ process includes the online fast Fourier transforms (FFTs). Using an IQ mixer and two parallel DAQ channels, we then also implemented a software-based image rejection without losing the DAQ efficiency. This work extends our continuing effort to improve the figure of merit in axion haloscope searches, the scanning rate.

21 cm tomography is emerging as a promising probe of the cosmological dark ages and the epoch of reionization, as well as a tool for observational cosmology in general. However, serious sources of foreground contamination must be subtracted for experimental efforts to be viable. In this paper, we focus on the removal of unresolved extragalactic point sources with smooth spectra, and evaluate how the residual foreground contamination after cleaning depends on instrumental and algorithmic parameters. A crucial but often ignored complication is that the synthesized beam of an interferometer array shrinks towards higher frequency, causing complicated frequency structure in each sky pixel as "frizz" far from the beam center contracts across unresolved radio sources. We find that current-generation experiments should nonetheless be able to clean out this points source contamination adequately, and quantify the instrumental and algorithmic design specifications required to meet this foreground challenge.

The recent study by Waclawczyk et al. [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50, 175501 (2017)] possesses three shortcomings: (i) The analysis misses a key aspect of the LMN equations which makes their Lie-group symmetry results incomplete. In particular, two essential symmetries will break when including this aspect. (ii) The statements on the constraints regarding the infinite-dimensional symmetry groups are misleading. (iii) The particular symmetries originating solely from the linearity of the LMN hierarchy violate the classical principle of cause and effect and therefore are unphysical. Within this Comment we present a detailed proof to this claim and conclude with the note that the new study by Waclawczyk et al. gives an unrealistic outlook on deriving invariant symmetry solutions for velocity correlations that arise from intermittent processes.

The realization of synthetic gauge fields has attracted a lot of attention recently in relation with periodically driven systems and the Floquet theory. In ultra-cold atom systems in optical lattices and photonic networks, this allows to simulate exotic phases of matter such as quantum Hall phases, anomalous quantum Hall phases and analogs of topological insulators. In this paper, we apply the Floquet theory to engineer anisotropic Haldane models on the honeycomb lattice and two-leg ladder systems. We show that these anisotropic Haldane models still possess a topologically non-trivial band structure associated with chiral edge modes (without the presence of a net unit flux in a unit cell), then referring to the quantum anomalous Hall effect. Focusing on (interacting) boson systems in s-wave bands of the lattice, we show how to engineer through the Floquet theory, a quantum phase transition between a uniform superfluid and a BEC (Bose-Einstein Condensate) analog of FFLO (Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov) states, where bosons condense at non-zero wave-vectors. We perform a Ginzburg-Landau analysis of the quantum phase transition on the graphene lattice, and compute observables such as chiral currents and the momentum distribution. The results are supported by exact diagonalization calculations and compared with those of the isotropic situation. The validity of high-frequency expansion in the Floquet theory is also tested using time-dependent simulations for various parameters of the model. Last, we show that the anisotropic choice for the effective vector potential allows a bosonization approach in equivalent ladder (strip) geometries.

While variance reduction methods have shown great success in solving large scale optimization problems, many of them suffer from accumulated errors and, therefore, should periodically require the full gradient computation. In this paper, we present a single-loop algorithm named SLEDGE (Single-Loop mEthoD for Gradient Estimator) for finite-sum nonconvex optimization, which does not require periodic refresh of the gradient estimator but achieves nearly optimal gradient complexity. Unlike existing methods, SLEDGE has the advantage of versatility; (i) second-order optimality, (ii) exponential convergence in the PL region, and (iii) smaller complexity under less heterogeneity of data. We build an efficient federated learning algorithm by exploiting these favorable properties. We show the first and second-order optimality of the output and also provide analysis under PL conditions. When the local budget is sufficiently large and clients are less (Hessian-)~heterogeneous, the algorithm requires fewer communication rounds then existing methods such as FedAvg, SCAFFOLD, and Mime. The superiority of our method is verified in numerical experiments.

Gamma-ray flares from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) show substantial variability on ultrafast timescales (i.e. shorter than the light crossing time of the AGN's supermassive black hole). We propose that ultrafast variability is a byproduct of the turbulent dissipation of the jet Poynting flux. Due to the intermittency of the turbulent cascade, the dissipation is concentrated in a set of reconnecting current sheets. Electrons energised by reconnection have a strong pitch angle anisotropy, i.e. their velocity is nearly aligned with the guide magnetic field. Then each current sheet produces a narrow radiation beam, which dominates the emission from the whole jet when it is directed towards the observer. The ultrafast variability is set by the light crossing time of a single current sheet, which is much shorter than the light crossing time of the whole emission region. The predictions of our model are: (i) The bolometric luminosity of ultrafast AGN flares is dominated by the inverse Compton (IC) emission, as the lower energy synchrotron emission is suppressed due to the pitch angle anisotropy. (ii) If the observed luminosity includes a non-flaring component, the variations of the synchrotron luminosity have a small amplitude. (iii) The synchrotron and IC emission are less variable at lower frequencies, as the cooling time of the radiating particles exceeds the light crossing time of the current sheet. Simultaneous multiwavelength observations of ultrafast AGN flares can test these predictions.

We have computed line emission cooling rates for the main cooling species in models of interstellar molecular clouds. The models are based on numerical simulations of super-sonic magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. Non-LTE radiative transfer calculations have been performed to properly account for the complex density and velocity structures in the MHD simulations. Three models are used. Two of the models are based on MHD simulations with different magnetic field strength and the third includes the computation of self-gravity (in the super-Alfvenic regime of turbulence). The density and velocity fields in the simulations are determined self-consistently by the dynamics of super-sonic turbulence. The models are intended to represent molecular clouds with linear size L~6 pc and mean density <n>~300 cm^-3, with the density exceeding 10^4 cm^-3 in the densest cores. We present 12CO, 13CO, C18O, O2, OI, CI and H2O cooling rates in isothermal clouds with kinetic temperatures 10-80K. Analytical approximations are derived for the cooling rates. The inhomogeneity of the models reduces photon trapping and enhances the cooling in the densest parts of the clouds. Compared with earlier models the cooling rates are less affected by optical depth effects and are therefore higher. The main effects comes, however, from the density variation since cooling efficiency increases with density. This is very important for the cooling of the clouds as a whole since most cooling is provided by gas with density above the average.

The 2019 discovery of high temperature superconductivity in layered nickelate films, Nd$_{1-x}$SrNiO$_2$, has galvanized a community that has been studying nickelates for more than 30 years both as cuprate analogs and in their own right. On the surface, infinite layer nickelates, and their multilayer analogs, should be promising candidates based on our understanding of cuprates: square planar coordination and a parent d9 configuration that places a single hole in a dx2-y2 planar orbital makes nickelates seem poised for superconductivity. But creating crystals and films of sufficient quality of this d9 configuration in Ni1+ has proven to be a synthetic challenge, only recently overcome. These crystalline specimens are opening windows that shed new light on the cuprate-nickelate analogy and revealing nuances that leave the relationship between cuprates and nickelates very much an area open to debate further study. This Perspective gives a qualitative, phenomenological account of these newly discovered superconductors and multilayer members of the infinite layer nickelate family. The focus is on our current understanding of electronic and magnetic properties of these materials as well as some future opportunities, explored from the viewpoint of synthetic challenges and some suggested developments in materials discovery and growth to make further progress in this rejuvenated field.

It is the purpose of this work to develop new approach for chemical compositional reservoir simulation, which may be regarded as a sequential method. The development process can be roughly divided into the following two stages: (1) development of a new mathematical formulation for the sequential chemical compositional reservoir simulation, (2) implementation of a sequential solution approach for chemical compositional reservoir simulation based on the formulation described in this paper. This paper addresses the first stage of the development process by presenting a new mathematical formulation of the chemical compositional reservoir flow equations for the sequential simulation. The newly developed mathematical formulation is extended from the model formulation used in existing chemical compositional simulators. During the model development process, it was discovered that the currently used chemical compositional model estimates the adsorption effect on the transport of a component reasonably well but it violates the principle of mass conservation. The energy conservation equation in the currently used chemical compositional model does not consider any change in the effective pore size caused by adsorption, which leads to inconsistency between the overall compositional balance equations and the energy conservation equation by violating conservation of energy. With these partial differential equations as governing equations, several simulators have been developed. In this article, we propose a formulation to model the change in pore volume due to adsorption that satisfies the conservation laws for mass and energy, and allows applying a sequential solution approach.

By applying the symmetric and trace-free formalism in terms of the irreducible Cartesian tensors, the metric for the external gravitational field of a spatially compact stationary source is provided in $F(X,Y,Z)$ gravity, a generic fourth-order theory of gravity, where $X:=R$ is Ricci scalar, $Y:=R_{\mu\nu}R^{\mu\nu}$ is Ricci square, and $Z:=R_{\mu\nu\rho\sigma}R^{\mu\nu\rho\sigma}$ is Riemann square. A new type of gauge condition is proposed so that the linearized gravitational field equations of $F(X,Y,Z)$ gravity are greatly simplified, and then, the stationary metric in the region exterior to the source is derived. In the process of applying the result, integrations are performed only over the domain occupied by the source. The multipole expansion of the metric potential in $F(X,Y,Z)$ gravity for a spatially compact stationary source is also presented. In the expansion, the corrections of $F(X,Y,Z)$ gravity to General Relativity are Yukawa-like ones, dependent on two characteristic lengths. Two additional sets of mass-type source multipole moments appear in the corrections and the salient feature characterizing them is that the integrations in their expressions are always modulated by a common radial factor related to the source distribution.

A method is proposed for determining the properties of type Ia supernovae from short-lived precursors -- Prompt SNIa. This method is based on the assumption that this subtype of type Ia supernovae exploded into low-metallicity globular clusters (GCs), and is responsible for the enrichment of the high-metallicity subgroup of GCs and circumgalactic clouds (CGCs) with the iron peak elements. We justify that CGCs are the formation places of GCs of both subgroups. The accuracy of the method depends, first, on the number of GCs, the spectra of which have been studied in detail; second, on the number of chemical elements, the abundances of which have been worked out. Only those elements are of interest for this method that are produced in supernova explosions and are not produced at the previous stage of the stellar evolution. Our estimates of nucleosynthesis in low-metallicity supernova GCs are in the best agreement with the following Prompt SNIa model: Single Degenerate Pure Deflagration Models of white dwarfs (WDs) burning with masses in the range from 1.30 Msun to 1.31 Msun if carbon explodes in the centre of a WD with a low central density from 0.5*10^9 g/cm^3 to 10^9 g/cm^3.

The probability density functions of proton, anti-proton, and net-proton multiplicity distributions are constructed from the Beam Energy Scan results of the STAR experiment using the Pearson curve method. The constructed distributions of proton and anti-proton are compared with Poisson and Binomial distributions. The net-proton probability distributions are compared with Skellam distributions to study the O(4) criticality near the chiral crossover transition. The $C_{6}/C_{2}$ results estimated from the obtained PDFs are compared with Skellam and Binomial baselines for the Beam Energy Scan data. The current study shows some signatures of O(4) criticality, which can be further investigated by precision measurements of the cumulants and understanding the contribution of non-critical fluctuations to them. This study also provides a baseline for the higher-order cumulant measurement in the upcoming RHIC BES II program and future LHC run.

DLDL: Dynamic Label Dictionary Learning via Hypergraph Regularization

For classification tasks, dictionary learning based methods have attracted lots of attention in recent years. One popular way to achieve this purpose is to introduce label information to generate a discriminative dictionary to represent samples. However, compared with traditional dictionary learning, this category of methods only achieves significant improvements in supervised learning, and has little positive influence on semi-supervised or unsupervised learning. To tackle this issue, we propose a Dynamic Label Dictionary Learning (DLDL) algorithm to generate the soft label matrix for unlabeled data. Specifically, we employ hypergraph manifold regularization to keep the relations among original data, transformed data, and soft labels consistent. We demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed DLDL approach on two remote sensing datasets.

SCORE: Spurious COrrelation REduction for Offline Reinforcement Learning

Offline reinforcement learning (RL) aims to learn the optimal policy from a pre-collected dataset without online interactions. Most of the existing studies focus on distributional shift caused by out-of-distribution actions. However, even in-distribution actions can raise serious problems. Since the dataset only contains limited information about the underlying model, offline RL is vulnerable to spurious correlations, i.e., the agent tends to prefer actions that by chance lead to high returns, resulting in a highly suboptimal policy. To address such a challenge, we propose a practical and theoretically guaranteed algorithm SCORE that reduces spurious correlations by combing an uncertainty penalty into policy evaluation. We show that this is consistent with the pessimism principle studied in theory, and the proposed algorithm converges to the optimal policy with a sublinear rate under mild assumptions. By conducting extensive experiments on existing benchmarks, we show that SCORE not only benefits from a solid theory but also obtains strong empirical results on a variety of tasks.

Assume that $\Phi:\mathbb{M}_{n}(\mathbb{C})\rightarrow\mathbb{M}_{n}(\mathbb{C})$ is a superoperator which preserves hermiticity. We give an algorithm determining whether $\Phi$ preserves semipositivity (we call $\Phi$ positive in this case). Our approach to the problem has a model-theoretic nature, namely, we apply techniques of quantifier elimination theory for real numbers. An approach based on these techniques seems to be the only one that allows to decide whether an arbitrary hermiticity-preserving $\Phi$ is positive. Before we go to detailed analysis of the problem, we argue that quantifier elimination for real numbers (and also for complex numbers) can play a significant role in quantum information theory and other areas as well.

Fr\'echet Inception Distance (FID) is the primary metric for ranking models in data-driven generative modeling. While remarkably successful, the metric is known to sometimes disagree with human judgement. We investigate a root cause of these discrepancies, and visualize what FID "looks at" in generated images. We show that the feature space that FID is (typically) computed in is so close to the ImageNet classifications that aligning the histograms of Top-$N$ classifications between sets of generated and real images can reduce FID substantially -- without actually improving the quality of results. Thus, we conclude that FID is prone to intentional or accidental distortions. As a practical example of an accidental distortion, we discuss a case where an ImageNet pre-trained FastGAN achieves a FID comparable to StyleGAN2, while being worse in terms of human evaluation.

Double peaked broad emission lines in active galactic nuclei are generally considered to be formed in an accretion disc. In this paper, we compute the profiles of reprocessing emission lines from a relativistic, warped accretion disc around a black hole in order to explore the possibility that certain asymmetries in the double-peaked emission line profile which can not be explained by a circular Keplerian disc may be induced by disc warping. The disc warping also provides a solution for the energy budget in the emission line region because it increases the solid angle of the outer disc portion subtended to the inner portion of the disc. We adopted a parametrized disc geometry and a central point-like source of ionizing radiation to capture the main characteristics of the emission line profile from such discs. We find that the ratio between the blue and red peaks of the line profiles becoming less than unity can be naturally predicted by a twisted warped disc, and a third peak can be produced in some cases. We show that disc warping can reproduce the main features of multi-peaked line profiles of four active galactic nuclei from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.

We study nondeterministic strategies in parity games with the aim of computing a most permissive winning strategy. Following earlier work, we measure permissiveness in terms of the average number/weight of transitions blocked by the strategy. Using a translation into mean-payoff parity games, we prove that the problem of computing (the permissiveness of) a most permissive winning strategy is in NP intersected coNP. Along the way, we provide a new study of mean-payoff parity games. In particular, we prove that the opponent player has a memoryless optimal strategy and give a new algorithm for solving these games.

Observations of extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) emission from an X-class solar flare that occurred on 2011 February 15 at 01:44 UT are presented, obtained using the EUV Variability Experiment (EVE) onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory. The complete EVE spectral range covers the free-bound continua of H I (Lyman continuum), He I, and He II, with recombination edges at 91.2, 50.4, and 22.8 nm, respectively. By fitting the wavelength ranges blue-ward of each recombination edge with an exponential function, lightcurves of each of the integrated continua were generated over the course of the flare, as well as emission from the free-free continuum (6.5-37 nm). The He II 30.4 nm and Lyman-alpha 121.6 nm lines, and soft X-ray (0.1-0.8 nm) emission from GOES are also included for comparison. Each free-bound continuum was found to have a rapid rise phase at the flare onset similar to that seen in the 25-50 keV lightcurves from RHESSI, suggesting that they were formed by recombination with free electrons in the chromosphere. However, the free-free emission exhibited a slower rise phase seen also in the soft X-ray emission from GOES, implying a predominantly coronal origin. By integrating over the entire flare the total energy emitted via each process was determined. We find that the flare energy in the EVE spectral range amounts to at most a few per cent of the total flare energy, but EVE gives us a first comprehensive look at these diagnostically important continuum components.

Topological quantum field theories containing matter fields are constructed by twisting $N=2$ supersymmetric quantum field theories. It is shown that $N=2$ chiral (antichiral) multiplets lead to topological sigma models while $N=2$ twisted chiral (twisted antichiral) multiplets lead to Landau-Ginzburg type topological quantum field theories. In addition, topological gravity in two dimensions is formulated using a gauge principle applied to the topological algebra which results after the twisting of $N=2$ supersymmetry.

The de-facto approach to many vision tasks is to start from pretrained visual representations, typically learned via supervised training on ImageNet. Recent methods have explored unsupervised pretraining to scale to vast quantities of unlabeled images. In contrast, we aim to learn high-quality visual representations from fewer images. To this end, we revisit supervised pretraining, and seek data-efficient alternatives to classification-based pretraining. We propose VirTex -- a pretraining approach using semantically dense captions to learn visual representations. We train convolutional networks from scratch on COCO Captions, and transfer them to downstream recognition tasks including image classification, object detection, and instance segmentation. On all tasks, VirTex yields features that match or exceed those learned on ImageNet -- supervised or unsupervised -- despite using up to ten times fewer images.

In this paper, the downlink of a typical massive MIMO system is studied when each base station is composed of three antenna arrays with directional antenna elements serving 120 degrees of the two-dimensional space. A lower bound for the achievable rate is provided. Furthermore, a power optimization problem is formulated and as a result, centralized and decentralized power allocation schemes are proposed. The simulation results reveal that using directional antennas at base stations along with sectoring can lead to a notable increase in the achievable rates by increasing the received signal power and decreasing 'pilot contamination' interference in multicell massive MIMO systems. Moreover, it is shown that using optimized power allocation can increase 0.95-likely rate in the system significantly.

Collecting labeled data to train deep neural networks is costly and even impractical for many tasks. Thus, research effort has been focused in automatically curated datasets or unsupervised and weakly supervised learning. The common problem in these directions is learning with unreliable label information. In this paper, we address the tolerance of deep embedding learning losses against label noise, i.e. when the observed labels are different from the true labels. Specifically, we provide the sufficient conditions to achieve theoretical guarantees for the 2 common loss functions: marginal loss and triplet loss. From these theoretical results, we can estimate how sampling strategies and initialization can affect the level of resistance against label noise. The analysis also helps providing more effective guidelines in unsupervised and weakly supervised deep embedding learning.

In a recent article in American Scientist, Theodore Hill described a coin-tossing game whose pay-off is the number of heads over the total number of throws. Suppose that at a given point during the game you have 5 heads and 3 tails, should you stop and get 5/8, or should you keep playing, hoping to get a better score? This is still an open problem. In the present article, we explore different strategies to this game from the Experimental Mathematics perspective.

Observations of synchrotron radiation across a wide range of wavelengths provide clear evidence that electrons are accelerated to relativistic energies in supernova remnants (SNRs). However, a viable mechanism for the pre-acceleration of such electrons to mildly relativistic energies has not yet been established. In this paper an electromagnetic particle-in-cell (PIC) code is used to simulate acceleration of electrons from background energies to tens of keV at perpendicular collisionless shocks associated with SNRs. Free energy for electron energization is provided by ions reflected from the shock front, with speeds greater than the upstream electron thermal speed. The PIC simulation results contain several new features, including: the acceleration, rather than heating, of electrons via the Buneman instability; the acceleration of electrons to speeds exceeding those of the shock-reflected ions producing the instability; and strong acceleration of electrons perpendicular to the magnetic field. Electron energization takes place through a variety of resonant and non-resonant processes, of which the strongest involves stochastic wave-particle interactions. In SNRs the diffusive shock process could then supply the final step required for the production of fully relativistic electrons. The mechanisms identified in this paper thus provide a possible solution to the electron pre-acceleration problem.

The properties of welded components are dominated by the microstructure evolution in the pool, where the solidification conditions are space-time variational. To represent the variational solidification conditions in the pool, the multi-scale simulation is carried out in this paper, combining the microscopic Phase-Field (PF) equations with the macroscopic thermal processes. Firstly, two different models, the GR model and TF model, are employed to simulate the single crystal solidification at a local region of the pool. Results suggest the TF model is more suitable to reflect the variational conditions than the GR model. Secondly, the single-crystal solidification and poly-crystal solidification at the whole region of the pool are performed through the TF model. The results demonstrate the space-time variabilities of the solidification conditions across the melt pool. Meanwhile, the variational conditions affect the microstructure evolution significantly, including the onset of initial instability at the epitaxial growth stage and the directional evolutions of the converging grain boundaries (GBs) and diverging GBs at the competitive growth stage. Moreover, the formation of axial grain structures is observed, which can be regarded as the competition between the grains along the axial direction and radial direction. This study indicates the necessity of considering the variational conditions in a pool. Meanwhile, the PF model can simulate microstructure evolution under the variational conditions accurately, which has a great potential for investigating solidification dynamics in the melt pool.

In this paper, we derive a new model for the description of liquid crystalline flows. While microscopic Doi type models suffer from the high dimensionality of the underlying product space, the more macroscopic Ericksen--Leslie type models describe only the long time behavior of the flow and are valid only close to equilibrium. By applying an energetic variational approach, we derive a new macroscopic model which shall provide an improved description far from equilibrium. The novelty of our approach lies in the way the energy is minimized. Distinguishing between the velocities of particles and fluid allows us to define the energy dissipation not in terms of chemical potentials but in terms of friction induced by the discrepancies in the considered velocities. We conclude this publication by establishing the existence of weak solutions to the newly derived model.

This article provides a new toolbox to derive sparse recovery guarantees from small deviations on extreme singular values or extreme eigenvalues obtained in Random Matrix Theory. This work is based on Restricted Isometry Constants (RICs) which are a pivotal notion in Compressed Sensing and High-Dimensional Statistics as these constants finely assess how a linear operator is conditioned on the set of sparse vectors and hence how it performs in SRSR. While it is an open problem to construct deterministic matrices with apposite RICs, one can prove that such matrices exist using random matrices models. In this paper, we show upper bounds on RICs for Gaussian and Rademacher matrices using state-of-the-art small deviation estimates on their extreme eigenvalues. This allows us to derive a lower bound on the probability of getting SRSR. One benefit of this paper is a direct and explicit derivation of upper bounds on RICs and lower bounds on SRSR from small deviations on the extreme eigenvalues given by Random Matrix theory.

In this paper, we introduce an alternative approach to Temporal Answer Set Programming that relies on a variation of Temporal Equilibrium Logic (TEL) for finite traces. This approach allows us to even out the expressiveness of TEL over infinite traces with the computational capacity of (incremental) Answer Set Programming (ASP). Also, we argue that finite traces are more natural when reasoning about action and change. As a result, our approach is readily implementable via multi-shot ASP systems and benefits from an extension of ASP's full-fledged input language with temporal operators. This includes future as well as past operators whose combination offers a rich temporal modeling language. For computation, we identify the class of temporal logic programs and prove that it constitutes a normal form for our approach. Finally, we outline two implementations, a generic one and an extension of clingo.

For an analytic function $f(z)$ on the unit disk $|z|<1$ with $f(0)=f'(0)-1=0$ and $f(z)\ne0, 0<|z|<1,$ we consider the power deformation $f_c(z)=z(f(z)/z)^c$ for a complex number $c.$ We determine those values $c$ for which the operator $f\mapsto f_c$ maps a specified class of univalent functions into the class of univalent functions. A little surprisingly, we will see that the set is described by the variability region of the quantity $zf'(z)/f(z),~|z|<1,$ for the class in most cases which we consider in the present paper. As an unexpected by-product, we show boundedness of strongly spirallike functions.

Among the lattice loop models defined by Pearce, Rasmussen and Zuber (2006), the model corresponding to critical dense polymers ($\beta = 0$) is the only one for which an inversion relation for the transfer matrix $D_N(u)$ was found by Pearce and Rasmussen (2007). From this result, they identified the set of possible eigenvalues for $D_N(u)$ and gave a conjecture for the degeneracies of its relevant eigenvalues in the link representation, in the sector with $d$ defects. In this paper, we set out to prove this conjecture, using the homomorphism of the $TL_N (\beta)$ algebra between the loop model link representation and that of the XXZ model for $\beta = -(q+q^{-1})$.

We have investigated theoretically (with micromagnetic simulations and plane wave method) and experimentally (with ferromagnetic resonance and Brillouin light scattering) three types of antidot lattices (ADLs) based on permalloy thin films with increased complexity of the unit cell: simple square, bi-component square and wave-like ADL. We have found that placing a small additional antidot in the center of the unit cell of the square ADL modify significantly the spin wave spectrum and its dependence on the orientation of the in-plane magnetic field. We also check the further changes of spin wave spectrum resulting from the introduction of air-gaps connecting small and large antidots. In particular, the presence of small antidots change the dependence of the frequency of the fundamental mode on the angle of the in-plane applied magnetic field. The air-gaps strongly discriminates the propagation of spin waves in two principal direction of ADL lattice, orthogonal to each other. In spite of these spectral changes, the spatial distribution of the spin wave amplitude generally preserves some similarities for all three structures. We also highlighted out the role of defects in the ADL in the observed spectra. The obtained results can be interesting for the magnonics applications of the magnonic crystals.

Using the {\em cutting and sewing} procedure we show how to get Feynman diagrams, up to two-loop order, of $\Phi^{4}$-theory with an internal SU(N) symmetry group, starting from tachyon amplitudes of the open bosonic string theory. In a properly defined field theory limit, we easily identify the corners of the string moduli space reproducing the correctly normalized field theory amplitudes expressed in the Schwinger parametrization.

Luminous Red Novae (LRNe) are astrophysical transients associated with the partial ejection of a binary system's common envelope (CE) shortly before its merger. Here we present the results of our photometric and spectroscopic follow-up campaign of AT2018bwo (DLT18x), a LRN discovered in NGC45, and investigate its progenitor system using binary stellar-evolution models. The transient reached a peak magnitude of $M_r=-10.97\pm0.11$ and maintained this brightness during its optical plateau of $t_p = 41\pm5$days. During this phase, it showed a rather stable photospheric temperature of ~3300K and a luminosity of ~$10^{40}$erg/s. The photosphere of AT2018bwo at early times appeared larger and cooler than other similar LRNe, likely due to an extended mass-loss episode before the merger. Towards the end of the plateau, optical spectra showed a reddened continuum with strong molecular absorption bands. The reprocessed emission by the cooling dust was also detected in the mid-infrared bands ~1.5 years after the outburst. Archival Spitzer and Hubble Space Telescope data taken 10-14 years before the transient event suggest a progenitor star with $T_{prog}\sim 6500$K, $R_{prog}\sim 100R_{\odot}$ and $L_{prog}\sim 2\times10^4L_{\odot}$, and an upper limit for optically thin warm (1000 K) dust mass of $M_d<10^{-6}M_{\odot}$. Using stellar binary-evolution models, we determined the properties of binary systems consistent with the progenitor parameter space. For AT2018bwo, we infer a primary mass of 12-16 $M_{\odot}$, which is 9-45% larger than the ~11$M_{\odot}$ obtained using single-star evolution models. The system, consistent with a yellow-supergiant primary, was likely in a stable mass-transfer regime with -2.4<log ($\dot{M}/M_{\odot}$/yr)<-1.2 a decade before the main instability occurred. During the dynamical merger, the system would have ejected 0.15-0.5$M_{\odot}$ with a velocity of ~500 km/s.

Using techniques of algebraic and analytic number theory, we resolve a question on monoid rings posed by Kulosman, et. al., under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). Specifically, we show that under an appropriate GRH, for any (rational) prime $p$ the set $E(p) = \{ q \text{ prime } \, | \, X^q - 1 \text{ factors in } \mathbb{F}_p[X;M] \}$, where $M = \langle 2, 3 \rangle = \mathbb{N}_0 \setminus \{ 1 \}$, contains a subset with positive natural density. In particular $E(p) \ne \varnothing$. This proves that $M$ is not a so-called ``Matsuda monoid'' of any positive type. For $p = 2, 3$ this was observed by Kulosman, who provided factorizations of $X^7-1$ and $X^{11} - 1$ in $\mathbb{F}_2[X; M]$ and $\mathbb{F}_3[X;M]$, respectively. Our results explain and reproduce both of these factorizations, as well.

We develop the algebraic instance of an algorithmic approach to the matricial Hausdorff moment problem on a compact interval $[\alpha,\beta]$ of the real axis. Our considerations are along the lines of the classical Schur algorithm and the treatment of the Hamburger moment problem on the real axis by Nevanlinna. More precisely, a transformation of matrix sequences is constructed, which transforms Hausdorff moment sequences into Hausdorff moment sequences reduced by 1 in length. It is shown that this transformation corresponds essentially to the left shift of the associated sequences of canonical moments. As an application, we show that a matricial version of the arcsine distribution can be used to characterize a certain centrality property of non-negative Hermitian measures on $[\alpha,\beta]$.

Gravitational waves radiated during binary black hole coalescence is a perfect probe for studying the characteristics of strong gravity. Advanced techniques for creating numerical relativity substitute models for eccentric binary black hole systems are presumed to become more crucial in existing and anticipated gravitational wave detectors. The imprint on the observation data of the gravitational wave emitted by the binary coalescence enhances the two body system studies. The aim of this study is to present an overview of the change in characteristics behaviours of hierarchical massive astrophysical objects merger, which are the data bank of the early universe. We present results from numerical relativity simulations of equal-mass and unequal mass nonspinning inspiral binary-black-hole system in the Post Newtonian framework. We also consider the time evolution of eccentricity for the initial eccentric system. The eccentric Post Newtonian equations are expanded in the form of frequency related variable $x = (M \omega)^{2/3}$. The model is restricted to the (2, 2) spin-weighted spherical harmonic modes. We conclude that for higher eccentricity as well as mass ratio there exist higher oscillation in orbital radius and in eccentricity.

We show that no left-ordering on a free product of (left-orderable) groups is isolated. In particular, we show that the space of left-orderings of free product of finitely generated groups is homeomorphic to the Cantor set. With the same techniques, we also give a new and constructive proof of the fact that the natural conjugation action of the free group (on two or more generators) on its space of left-orderings has a dense orbit.

The leading and next to leading terms of the average arithmetic area $< S(m)>$ enclosed by $m\to\infty$ independent closed Brownian planar paths, with a given length $t$ and starting from and ending at the same point, is calculated. The leading term is found to be $< S(m) > \sim {\pi t\over 2}\ln m$ and the $0$-winding sector arithmetic area inside the $m$ paths is subleading in the asymptotic regime. A closed form expression for the algebraic area distribution is also obtained and discussed.

Based on the hierarchy exhibited by quarks masses at low energies, we assume that Yukawa couplings of up and down quarks are related by $Y_u\propto Y_d^2$ at grand unification scales. This ansatz gives rise to a symmetrical CKM matrix at the grand unification (GU) scale. Using three specific models as illustrative examples for the evolution down to low energies, we obtain the entries and asymmetries of the CKM matrix which are in very good agreement with their measured values. This indicates that the small asymmetry of the CKM matrix at low energies may be the effect of the renormalization group evolution only.

We study the relations between pin structures on a non-orientable even-dimensional manifold, with or without boundary, and pin structures on its orientable double cover, requiring the latter to be invariant under sheet-exchange. We show that there is not a simple bijection, but that the natural map induced by pull-back is neither injective nor surjective: we thus find the conditions to recover a full correspondence. We also show how to describe such a correspondence using spinors instead of pinors on the double cover: this is in a certain sense possible, but in a way that contains anyhow an explicit reference to pinors. We then consider the example of surfaces, with detailed computations for the real projective plane, the Klein bottle and the Moebius strip.

The Halo Assembly in Lambda-CDM: Observations in 7 Dimensions (HALO7D) dataset consists of Keck II/DEIMOS spectroscopy and Hubble Space Telescope-measured proper motions of Milky Way halo main sequence turnoff stars in the CANDELS fields. In this paper, we present the spectroscopic component of this dataset, and discuss target selection, observing strategy, and survey properties. We present a new method of measuring line-of-sight (LOS) velocities by combining multiple spectroscopic observations of a given star, utilizing Bayesian hierarchical modeling. We present the LOS velocity distributions of the four HALO7D fields, and estimate their means and dispersions. All of the LOS distributions are dominated by the "hot halo": none of our fields are dominated by substructure that is kinematically cold in the LOS velocity component. Our estimates of the LOS velocity dispersions are consistent across the different fields, and these estimates are consistent with studies using other types of tracers. To complement our observations, we perform mock HALO7D surveys using the synthetic survey software Galaxia to "observe'" the Bullock & Johnston (2005) accreted stellar halos. Based on these simulated datasets, the consistent LOS velocity distributions across the four HALO7D fields indicates that the HALO7D sample is dominated by stars from the same massive (or few relatively massive) accretion event(s).

It is an important inferential problem to test no association between two binary variables based on data. Tests based on the sample odds ratio are commonly used. We bring in a competing test based on the Pearson correlation coefficient. In particular, the Odds ratio does not extend to higher order contingency tables, whereas Pearson correlation does. It is important to understand how Pearson correlation stacks against the odds ratio in 2x2 tables. Another measure of association is the canonical correlation. In this paper, we examine how competitive Pearson correlation is vis-\`a-vis odds ratio in terms of power in the binary context, contrasting further with both the Wald Z and Rao Score tests. We generated an extensive collection of joint distributions of the binary variables and estimated the power of the tests under each joint alternative distribution based on random samples. The consensus is that none of the tests dominates the other.

We present a novel generative model that combines state-of-the-art neural text-to-speech (TTS) with semi-supervised probabilistic latent variable models. By providing partial supervision to some of the latent variables, we are able to force them to take on consistent and interpretable purposes, which previously hasn't been possible with purely unsupervised TTS models. We demonstrate that our model is able to reliably discover and control important but rarely labelled attributes of speech, such as affect and speaking rate, with as little as 1% (30 minutes) supervision. Even at such low supervision levels we do not observe a degradation of synthesis quality compared to a state-of-the-art baseline. Audio samples are available on the web.

Distance covariance is a widely used statistical methodology for testing the dependency between two groups of variables. Despite the appealing properties of consistency and superior testing power, the testing results of distance covariance are often hard to be interpreted. This paper presents an elementary interpretation of the mechanism of distance covariance through an additive decomposition of correlations formula. Based on this formula, a visualization method is developed to provide practitioners with a more intuitive explanation of the distance covariance score.

This paper wants to focus on providing a characterization of the runtime performances of state-of-the-art implementations of KGE alghoritms, in terms of memory footprint and execution time. Despite the rapidly growing interest in KGE methods, so far little attention has been devoted to their comparison and evaluation; in particular, previous work mainly focused on performance in terms of accuracy in specific tasks, such as link prediction. To this extent, a framework is proposed for evaluating available KGE implementations against graphs with different properties, with a particular focus on the effectiveness of the adopted optimization strategies. Graphs and models have been trained leveraging different architectures, in order to enlighten features and properties of both models and the architectures they have been trained on. Some results enlightened with experiments in this document are the fact that multithreading is efficient, but benefit deacreases as the number of threads grows in case of CPU. GPU proves to be the best architecture for the given task, even if CPU with some vectorized instructions still behaves well. Finally, RAM utilization for the loading of the graph never changes between different architectures and depends only on the type of graph, not on the model.

We demonstrate that the normalised localization length $\beta$ of the eigenfunctions of diluted (sparse) banded random matrices follows the scaling law $\beta=x^*/(1+x^*)$. The scaling parameter of the model is defined as $x^*\propto(b_{eff}^2/N)^\delta$, where $b_{eff}$ is the average number of non-zero elements per matrix row, $N$ is the matrix size, and $\delta\sim 1$. Additionally, we show that $x^*$ also scales the spectral properties of the model (up to certain sparsity) characterized by the spacing distribution of eigenvalues.

We compare the characteristics of flare-accelerated energetic electrons at the Sun with those injected into interplanetary space. We have identified 17 energetic electron events well-observed with the SEPT instrument aboard STEREO which show a clear association with a hard X-ray (HXR) flare observed with the RHESSI spacecraft. We compare the spectral indices of the RHESSI HXR spectra with those of the interplanetary electrons. Because of the frequent double-power-law shape of the in situ electron spectra, we paid special attention to the choice of the spectral index used for comparison. The time difference between the electron onsets and the associated type III and microwave bursts suggests that the electron events are detected at 1 AU with apparent delays ranging from 9 to 41 minutes. While the parent solar activity is clearly impulsive, also showing a high correlation with extreme ultraviolet jets, most of the studied events occur in temporal coincidence with coronal mass ejections (CMEs). In spite of the observed onset delays and presence of CMEs in the low corona, we find a significant correlation of about 0.8 between the spectral indices of the HXR flare and the in situ electrons. The correlations increase if only events with significant anisotropy are considered. This suggests that transport effects can alter the injected spectra leading to a strongly reduced imprint of the flare acceleration. We conclude that interplanetary transport effects must be taken into account when inferring the initial acceleration of solar energetic electron events. Although our results suggest a clear imprint of flare acceleration for the analyzed event sample, a secondary acceleration might be present which could account for the observed delays. However, the limited and variable pitch-angle coverage of SEPT could also be the reason for the observed delays.

It is known that there is a one-to-one correspondence between equivalence classes of primitive indefinite binary quadratic forms and primitive hyperbolic conjugacy classes of the modular group. Due to such a correspondence, Sarnak obtained the asymptotic formula for the class number sum in order of the fundamental unit by using the prime geodesic theorem for the modular group. In the present paper, we propose asymptotic formulas of the class number sums over discriminants in arithmetic progressions. Since there are relations between the arithmetic properties of the discriminants and the conjugacy classes in the finite groups given by the modular group and its congruence subgroups, we can get the desired asymptotic formulas by arranging the Tchebotarev-type prime geodesic theorem. While such asymptotic formulas were already given by Raulf, the approaches are quite different, the expressions of the leading terms of our asymptotic formulas are simpler and the estimates of the reminder terms are sharper.

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a compact manifold of $\mathbb{R}^d$. The goal of this paper is to decide, based on a sample of points, whether the interior of $\mathcal{M}$ is empty or not. We divide this work in two main parts. Firstly, under a dependent sample which may or may not contain some noise within, we characterize asymptotic properties of an interior detection test based on a suitable control of the dependence. Afterwards, we drop the dependence and consider a model where the points sampled from the manifold are mixed with some points sampled from a different measure (noisy observations). We study the behaviour with respect to the amount of noisy observations, introducing a methodology to identify true manifold points, characterizing convergence properties.

We study the existence and stability of standing waves solutions of a three-coupled nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger system related to the Raman amplification in a plasma. By means of the concentration-compacteness method, we provide a characterization of the standing waves solutions as minimizers of an energy functional subject to three independent $L^{2}$ mass constraints. As a consequence, we establish existence and orbital stability of solitary waves.
