Several experimental efforts are underway to measure the power spectrum of 21cm fluctuations from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) using low-frequency radio interferometers. Experiments like the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA) and Murchison Widefield Array Phase II (MWA) feature highly-redundant antenna layouts, building sensitivity through redundant measurements of the same angular Fourier modes, at the expense of diminished UV coverage. This strategy limits the numbers of independent samples of each power spectrum mode, thereby increasing the effect of sample variance on the final power spectrum uncertainty. To better quantify this effect, we measure the sample variance of a delay-transform based power spectrum estimator, using both analytic calculations and simulations of flat-spectrum EoR-like signals. We find that for the shortest baselines in HERA, the sample variance can reach as high as 20%, and up to 30% for the wider fields-of-view of the MWA. Combining estimates from all the baselines in a HERA- or MWA-like 37 element redundant hexagonal array can lower the variance to $1-3$% for some Fourier modes. These results have important implications for observing and analysis strategies, and suggest that sample variance can be non-negligible when constraining EoR model parameters from upcoming 21cm data.

Extended Gross-Pitaevskii equations for the rotating F=2 condensate in a harmonic trap are solved both numerically and variationally using trial functions for each component of the wave function. Axially-symmetric vortex solutions are analyzed and energies of polar and cyclic states are calculated. The equilibrium transitions between different phases with changing of the magnetization are studied. We show that at high magnetization the ground state of the system is determined by interaction in "density" channel, and at low magnetization spin interactions play a dominant role. Although there are five hyperfine states, all the particles are always condensed in one, two or three states. Two novel types of vortex structures are also discussed.

Based on $X \sim N_d(\theta, \sigma^2_X I_d)$, we study the efficiency of predictive densities under $\alpha-$divergence loss $L_{\alpha}$ for estimating the density of $Y \sim N_d(\theta, \sigma^2_Y I_d)$. We identify a large number of cases where improvement on a plug-in density are obtainable by expanding the variance, thus extending earlier findings applicable to Kullback-Leibler loss. The results and proofs are unified with respect to the dimension $d$, the variances $\sigma^2_X$ and $\sigma^2_Y$, the choice of loss $L_{\alpha}$; $\alpha \in (-1,1)$. The findings also apply to a large number of plug-in densities, as well as for restricted parameter spaces with $\theta \in \Theta \subset \mathbb{R}^d$. The theoretical findings are accompanied by various observations, illustrations, and implications dealing for instance with robustness with respect to the model variances and simultaneous dominance with respect to the loss.

This new approach allows us to prove the contraction theorem for lc generalized pairs without using Koll\'ar's gluing theory.

We show that the chronological removal of cycles from a walk on a graph, known as Lawler's loop-erasing procedure, generates a preLie co-algebra on the vector space spanned by the walks. In addition, we prove that the tensor and symmetric algebras of graph walks are graded Hopf algebras, provide their antipodes explicitly and recover the preLie co-algebra from a brace coalgebra on the tensor algebra of graph walks. Finally we exhibit sub-Hopf algebras associated to particular types of walks.

We discuss on the electromagnetic response of a polycrystalline sample of LaO_0.94F_0.06FeAs exposed to DC magnetic fields up to 10 kOe. The low- and high-frequency responses have been investigated by measuring the AC susceptibility at 100 kHz and the microwave surface resistance at 9.6 GHz. At low as well as high DC magnetic fields, the susceptibility strongly depends on the amplitude of the AC driving field, highlighting enhanced nonlinear effects. The field dependence of the AC susceptibility exhibits a magnetic hysteresis that can be justified considering the intragrain-field-penetration effects on the intergrain critical current density. The microwave surface resistance exhibits a clockwise magnetic hysteresis, which cannot be justified in the framework of the critical-state models of the Abrikosov-fluxon lattice; it may have the same origin as that detected in the susceptibility.

Improving Transformer Models by Reordering their Sublayers

Multilayer transformer networks consist of interleaved self-attention and feedforward sublayers. Could ordering the sublayers in a different pattern lead to better performance? We generate randomly ordered transformers and train them with the language modeling objective. We observe that some of these models are able to achieve better performance than the interleaved baseline, and that those successful variants tend to have more self-attention at the bottom and more feedforward sublayers at the top. We propose a new transformer pattern that adheres to this property, the sandwich transformer, and show that it improves perplexity on multiple word-level and character-level language modeling benchmarks, at no cost in parameters, memory, or training time. However, the sandwich reordering pattern does not guarantee performance gains across every task, as we demonstrate on machine translation models. Instead, we suggest that further exploration of task-specific sublayer reorderings is needed in order to unlock additional gains.

We study traveling fronts in a system of one dimensional reaction-diffusion-advection equations motivated by problems in reactive flows. In the limit as a parameter tends to infinity, we construct the approximate front profile and determine the leading order expansion for the selected wavespeed. Such fronts are often constructed as transverse intersections of stable and unstable manifolds of the traveling wave differential equation. However, a re-scaling of the dependent variable leads to a lack of hyperbolicity for one of the end states making the definition of one such manifold unclear. We use geometric blow-up techniques to recover hyperbolicity and following an analysis of the blown up vector field are able to show the existence of a traveling front with a leading order expansion of its speed.

The properties of water ice at megabar pressure are characterized with ab initio computer simulations. The focus lies on the metallic Cmcm phase and its insulating distorted analogue with Pnma symmetry. Both phases were recently predicted to occur at 15.5 and 12.5 Mbar respectively [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 (2010) 195701]. The Fermi surface of the Cmcm phase is analyzed and possibility of Fermi nesting to occur is discussed. The Wannier orbital are computed for the Pnma structure and compared to ice X. While ice X shows typical sp3 hybridization, in the Pnma structure, the orbitals are deformed and no longer all aligned with the hydrogen bonds.

Spectrum sensing is a fundamental operation in cognitive radio environment. It gives information about spectrum availability by scanning the bands. Usually a fixed amount of time is given to scan individual bands. Most of the times, historical information about the traffic in the spectrum bands is not used. But this information gives the idea, how busy a specific band is. Therefore, instead of scanning a band for a fixed amount of time, more time can be given to less occupied bands and less time to heavily occupied ones. In this paper we have formulated the time assignment problem as integer linear programming and source coding problems. The time assignment problem is solved using the associated stochastic optimization problem.

We present a discontinuous Galerkin internal-penalty scheme that is applicable to a large class of linear and nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations. The unified scheme can accommodate all second-order elliptic equations that can be formulated in first-order flux form, encompassing problems in linear elasticity, general relativity, and hydrodynamics, including problems formulated on a curved manifold. It allows for a wide range of linear and nonlinear boundary conditions, and accommodates curved and nonconforming meshes. Our generalized internal-penalty numerical flux and our Schur-complement strategy of eliminating auxiliary degrees of freedom make the scheme compact without requiring equation-specific modifications. We demonstrate the accuracy of the scheme for a suite of numerical test problems. The scheme is implemented in the open-source SpECTRE numerical relativity code.

In this work we design and compare different supervised learning algorithms to compute the cost of Alternating Current Optimal Power Flow (ACOPF). The motivation for quick calculation of OPF cost outcomes stems from the growing need of algorithmic-based long-term and medium-term planning methodologies in power networks. Integrated in a multiple time-horizon coordination framework, we refer to this approximation module as a proxy for predicting short-term decision outcomes without the need of actual simulation and optimization of them. Our method enables fast approximate calculation of OPF cost with less than 1% error on average, achieved in run-times that are several orders of magnitude lower than of exact computation. Several test-cases such as IEEE-RTS96 are used to demonstrate the efficiency of our approach.

In the series of lectures, we will discuss probability laws of random points, curves, and surfaces. Starting from a brief review of the notion of martingales, one-dimensional Brownian motion (BM), and the $D$-dimensional Bessel processes, BES$_{D}$, $D \geq 1$, first we study Dyson's Brownian motion model with parameter $\beta >0$, DYS$_{\beta}$, which is regarded as multivariate extensions of BES$_D$ with the relation $\beta=D-1$. Next, using the reproducing kernels of Hilbert function spaces, the Gaussian analytic functions (GAFs) are defined on a unit disk and an annulus. As zeros of the GAFs, determinantal point processes and permanental-determinantal point processes are obtained. Then, the Schramm--Loewner evolution with parameter $\kappa >0$, SLE$_{\kappa}$, is introduced, which is driven by a BM on ${\mathbb{R}}$ and generates a family of conformally invariant probability laws of random curves on the upper half complex plane ${\mathbb{H}}$. We regard SLE$_{\kappa}$ as a complexification of BES$_D$ with the relation $\kappa=4/(D-1)$. The last topic of lectures is the construction of the multiple SLE$_{\kappa}$, which is driven by the $N$-particle process on ${\mathbb{R}}$ and generates $N$ interacting random curves in ${\mathbb{H}}$. We prove that the multiple SLE/GFF coupling is established, if and only if the driving $N$-particle process on ${\mathbb{R}}$ is identified with DYS$_{\beta}$ with the relation $\beta=8/\kappa$.

There is general agreement that the MiSaTaQuWa equations should describe the motion of a "small body" in general relativity, taking into account the leading order self-force effects. However, previous derivations of these equations have made a number of ad hoc assumptions and/or contain a number of unsatisfactory features. For example, all previous derivations have invoked, without proper justification, the step of "Lorenz gauge relaxation", wherein the linearized Einstein equation is written down in the form appropriate to the Lorenz gauge, but the Lorenz gauge condition is then not imposed--thereby making the resulting equations for the metric perturbation inequivalent to the linearized Einstein equations. In this paper, we analyze the issue of "particle motion" in general relativity in a systematic and rigorous way by considering a one-parameter family of metrics, $g_{ab} (\lambda)$, corresponding to having a body (or black hole) that is "scaled down" to zero size and mass in an appropriate manner. We prove that the limiting worldline of such a one-parameter family must be a geodesic of the background metric, $g_{ab} (\lambda=0)$. Gravitational self-force--as well as the force due to coupling of the spin of the body to curvature--then arises as a first-order perturbative correction in $\lambda$ to this worldline. No assumptions are made in our analysis apart from the smoothness and limit properties of the one-parameter family of metrics. Our approach should provide a framework for systematically calculating higher order corrections to gravitational self-force, including higher multipole effects, although we do not attempt to go beyond first order calculations here. The status of the MiSaTaQuWa equations is explained.

On extending the Standard Model (SM) Lagrangian, through a non-linear Born-Infeld (BI) hypercharge term with a parameter $\beta$ (of dimensions of [mass]$^2$), a finite energy monopole solution was claimed by Arunasalam and Kobakhidze [1]. We report on a new class of solutions within this framework which was missed in the earlier analysis. This new class was discovered on performing consistent analytic asymptotic analyses of the nonlinear differential equations describing the model; the shooting method used in numerical solutions to boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations is replaced in our approach by a method which uses diagonal Pad\'e approximants. Our work uses the ansatz proposed by Cho and Maison to generate a static and spherically symmetric monopole with finite energy and differs from that used in the solution of [1]. Estimates of the total energy of the monopole are given, and detection prospects at colliders are briefly discussed.

We prove a version of Gauss-Bonnet theorem in sub-Riemannian Heisenberg space $H^1$. The sub-Riemannian distance makes $H^1$ a metric space and consenquently with a spherical Hausdorff measure. Using this measure, we define a Gaussian curvature at points of a surface S where the sub-Riemannian distribution is transverse to the tangent space of S. If all points of S have this property, we prove a Gauss-Bonnet formula and for compact surfaces (which are topologically a torus) we obtain $\int_S K = 0$.

A pretrain-finetune strategy is widely used to reduce the overfitting that can occur when data is insufficient for CNN training. First few layers of a CNN pretrained on a large-scale RGB dataset are capable of acquiring general image characteristics which are remarkably effective in tasks targeted for different RGB datasets. However, when it comes down to hyperspectral domain where each domain has its unique spectral properties, the pretrain-finetune strategy no longer can be deployed in a conventional way while presenting three major issues: 1) inconsistent spectral characteristics among the domains (e.g., frequency range), 2) inconsistent number of data channels among the domains, and 3) absence of large-scale hyperspectral dataset. We seek to train a universal cross-domain model which can later be deployed for various spectral domains. To achieve, we physically furnish multiple inlets to the model while having a universal portion which is designed to handle the inconsistent spectral characteristics among different domains. Note that only the universal portion is used in the finetune process. This approach naturally enables the learning of our model on multiple domains simultaneously which acts as an effective workaround for the issue of the absence of large-scale dataset. We have carried out a study to extensively compare models that were trained using cross-domain approach with ones trained from scratch. Our approach was found to be superior both in accuracy and in training efficiency. In addition, we have verified that our approach effectively reduces the overfitting issue, enabling us to deepen the model up to 13 layers (from 9) without compromising the accuracy.

A complete family of non-expanding impulsive waves in spacetimes which are the direct product of two 2-spaces of constant curvature is presented. In addition to previously investigated impulses in Minkowski, (anti-)Nariai and Bertotti-Robinson universes, a new explicit class of impulsive waves which propagate in the exceptional electrovac Plebanski-Hacyan spacetimes with a cosmological constant Lambda is constructed. In particular, pure gravitational waves generated by null particles with an arbitrary multipole structure are described. The metrics are impulsive members of a more general family of the Kundt spacetimes of type II. The well-known pp-waves are recovered for Lambda=0.

The ac Stark shift of hyperfine levels of neutral atoms can be calculated using the third order perturbation theory(TOPT), where the third order corrections are quadratic in the atom-photon interaction and linear in the hyperfine interaction. In this paper, we use Green's function to derive the $E^{[2+\epsilon]}$ method which can give close values to those of TOPT for the differential light shift between two hyperfine levels. It comes with a simple form and easy incorporation of theoretical and experimental atomic structure data. Furthermore, we analyze the order of approximation and give the condition under which $E^{[2+\epsilon]}$ method is valid.

We study the relationship between the Milnor and Tjurina numbers of a singular foliation $\mathcal{F}$, in the complex plane, with respect to a balanced divisor of separatrices $\mathcal{B}$ for $\mathcal{F}$. For that, we associated with $\mathcal{F}$ a new number called the $\chi$-number and we prove that it is a $C^{1}$ invariant for holomorphic foliations. We compute the polar excess number of $\mathcal{F}$ with respect to a balanced divisor of separatrices $\mathcal{B}$ for $\mathcal{F}$, via the Milnor number of the foliation, the multiplicity of some hamiltonian foliations along the separatrices in the support of $\mathcal{B}$ and the $\chi$-number of $\mathcal{F}$. On the other hand, we generalize, in the plane case and the formal context, the well-known result of G\'omez-Mont given in the holomorphic context, which establishes the equality between the GSV-index of the foliation and the difference between the Tjurina number of the foliation and the Tjurina number of a set of separatrices of $\mathcal{F}$. Finally, we state numerical relationships between some classic indices, as Baum-Bott, Camacho-Sad, and variational indices of a singular foliation and its Milnor and Tjurina numbers; and we obtain a bound for the sum of Milnor numbers of the local separatrices of a holomorphic foliation on the complex projective plane.

Surfaces of planets and small bodies of our Solar System are often covered by a layer of granular material that can range from a fine regolith to a gravel-like structure of varying depths. Therefore, the dynamics of granular materials are involved in many events occurring during planetary and small-body evolution thus contributing to their geological properties. We demonstrate that the new adaptation of the parallel N-body hard-sphere code pkdgrav has the capability to model accurately the key features of the collective motion of bidisperse granular materials in a dense regime as a result of shaking. As a stringent test of the numerical code we investigate the complex collective ordering and motion of granular material by direct comparison with laboratory experiments. We demonstrate that, as experimentally observed, the scale of the collective motion increases with increasing small-particle additive concentration. We then extend our investigations to assess how self-gravity and external gravity affect collective motion. In our reduced-gravity simulations both the gravitational conditions and the frequency of the vibrations roughly match the conditions on asteroids subjected to seismic shaking, though real regolith is likely to be much more heterogeneous and less ordered than in our idealised simulations. We also show that collective motion can occur in a granular material under a wide range of inter-particle gravity conditions and in the absence of an external gravitational field. These investigations demonstrate the great interest of being able to simulate conditions that are to relevant planetary science yet unreachable by Earth-based laboratory experiments.

We present a derivation of a generalized optimally-weighted estimator for the weak lensing magnification signal, including a calculation of errors. With this estimator, we present a local method for optimally estimating the local effects of magnification from weak gravitational lensing, using a comparison of number counts in an arbitrary region of space to the expected unmagnified number counts. We show that when equivalent lens and source samples are used, this estimator is simply related to the optimally-weighted correlation function estimator used in past work and vice-versa, but this method has the benefits that it can calculate errors with significantly less computational time, that it can handle overlapping lens and source samples, and that it can easily be extended to mass-mapping. We present a proof-of-principle test of this method on data from the CFHTLenS, showing that its calculated magnification signals agree with predictions from model fits to shear data. Finally, we investigate how magnification data can be used to supplement shear data in determining the best-fit model mass profiles for galaxy dark matter haloes. We find that at redshifts greater than z ~ 0.6, the inclusion of magnification can often significantly improve the constraints on the components of the mass profile which relate to galaxies' local environments relative to shear alone, and in high-redshift, low- and medium-mass bins, it can have a higher signal-to-noise than the shear signal.

A key axiom of equilibrium statistical physics is that all microstates are equally probably in a thermally isolated system. Coupled with the laws of Newtonian mechanics, quantum mechanics, chemistry, and thermal physics, one can build from this axiom both complex and satisfactory models for macroscopic phenomena. Here, we apply the precepts of statistical physics to a problem that has puzzled scientists and engineers since its discovery in the 1980's: The Entangled Laptop Cable Problem. Using a stochastic 2-dimensional simulation to approximate projections of the 3+1-dimensional system, we shall see that the overwhelmingly most probable state for a laptop cable is a severely tangled one.

Selective recruitment designs for improving observational studies using electronic health records

Large scale electronic health records (EHRs) present an opportunity to quickly identify suitable individuals in order to directly invite them to participate in an observational study. EHRs can contain data from millions of individuals, raising the question of how to optimally select a cohort of size n from a larger pool of size N. In this paper we propose a simple selective recruitment protocol that selects a cohort in which covariates of interest tend to have a uniform distribution. We show that selectively recruited cohorts potentially offer greater statistical power and more accurate parameter estimates than randomly selected cohorts. Our protocol can be applied to studies with multiple categorical and continuous covariates. We apply our protocol to a numerically simulated prospective observational study using an EHR database of stable acute coronary disease patients from 82,089 individuals in the U.K. Selective recruitment designs require a smaller sample size, leading to more efficient and cost-effective studies.

In this work, we develop the Batch Belief Trees (BBT) algorithm for motion planning under motion and sensing uncertainties. The algorithm interleaves between batch sampling, building a graph of nominal trajectories in the state space, and searching over the graph to find belief space motion plans. By searching over the graph, BBT finds sophisticated plans that will visit (and revisit) information-rich regions to reduce uncertainty. One of the key benefits of this algorithm is the modified interplay between exploration and exploitation. Instead of an exhaustive search (exploitation) after one exploration step, the proposed algorithm uses batch samples to explore the state space and, in addition, does not require exhaustive search before the next iteration of batch sampling, which adds flexibility.The algorithm finds motion plans that converge to the optimal one as more samples are added to the graph. We test BBT in different planning environments. Our numerical investigation confirms that BBT finds non-trivial motion plans and is faster compared with previous similar methods.

In this paper we are interested in the motion of a ball inside a billiard table bounded by a particular smooth curve. This table belongs to a family of billiards which can all be drawn by a common process: the so-called gardener's string construction. The classical elliptical billiard is, of course, the foremost member of this family. So it should come as no surprise that our hexagonal string billiard shares many basic properties with the latter, but, on the other hand, also exhibits some essential differences with it. We have gathered numerical evidence against the Birkhoff-Poritsky conjecture.

Line-of-sight magnetograms for 217 active regions (ARs) of different flare rate observed at the solar disk center from January 1997 until December 2006 are utilized to study the turbulence regime and its relationship to the flare productivity. Data from {\it SOHO}/MDI instrument recorded in the high resolution mode and data from the BBSO magnetograph were used. The turbulence regime was probed via magnetic energy spectra and magnetic dissipation spectra. We found steeper energy spectra for ARs of higher flare productivity. We also report that both the power index, $\alpha$, of the energy spectrum, $E(k) \sim k^{-\alpha}$, and the total spectral energy $W=\int E(k)dk$ are comparably correlated with the flare index, $A$, of an active region. The correlations are found to be stronger than that found between the flare index and total unsigned flux. The flare index for an AR can be estimated based on measurements of $\alpha$ and $W$ as $A=10^b (\alpha W)^c$, with $b=-7.92 \pm 0.58$ and $c=1.85 \pm 0.13$. We found that the regime of the fully-developed turbulence occurs in decaying ARs and in emerging ARs (at the very early stage of emergence). Well-developed ARs display under-developed turbulence with strong magnetic dissipation at all scales.

In this work, we study the magnetization behaviors of the classical Ising model on the triangular lattice using Monte Carlo simulations, and pay particular attention to the effect of further-neighbor interactions. Several fascinating spin states are identified to be stabilized in certain magnetic field regions, respectively, resulting in the magnetization plateaus at 2/3, 5/7, 7/9 and 5/6 of the saturation magnetization MS, in addition to the well known plateaus at 0, 1/3 and 1/2 of MS. The stabilization of these interesting orders can be understood as the consequence of the competition between Zeeman energy and exchange energy.

We propose the first non-trivial generic decoding algorithm for codes in the sum-rank metric. The new method combines ideas of well-known generic decoders in the Hamming and rank metric. For the same code parameters and number of errors, the new generic decoder has a larger expected complexity than the known generic decoders for the Hamming metric and smaller than the known rank-metric decoders. Furthermore, we give a formal hardness reduction, providing evidence that generic sum-rank decoding is computationally hard. As a by-product of the above, we solve some fundamental coding problems in the sum-rank metric: we give an algorithm to compute the exact size of a sphere of a given sum-rank radius, and also give an upper bound as a closed formula; and we study erasure decoding with respect to two different notions of support.

In this paper the fields generated by an electric dipole and a gravitational quadrapole are shown to propagate superluminally in the nearfield of the source and reduce to the speed of light as the fields propagate into the farfield. A theoretical derivation of the generated fields using Maxwell's equations is presented followed by a theoretical analysis of the phase and group speed of the propagating fields. This theoretical prediction is then verified by a numerical simulation which demonstrates the superluminal propagation of modulated signals in the nearfield of their sources. An experiment using simple dipole antennas is also presented which verifies the theoretically expected superluminal propagation of transverse electromagnetic fields in the nearfield of the source. The phase speed, group speed, and information speed of these systems are compared and shown to differ. Provided the noise of a signal is small and the modulation method is known, it is shown that the information speed can be approximately the same as the superluminal group speed. According to relativity theory, it is known that between moving reference frames, superluminal signals can propagate backwards in time enabling violations of causality. Several explanations are presented which may resolve this dilemma.

Expressing attack-defence trees in a multi-agent setting allows for studying a new aspect of security scenarios, namely how the number of agents and their task assignment impact the performance, e.g. attack time, of strategies executed by opposing coalitions. Optimal scheduling of agents' actions, a non-trivial problem, is thus vital. We discuss associated caveats and propose an algorithm that synthesises such an assignment, targeting minimal attack time and using the minimal number of agents for a given attack-defence tree. We also investigate an alternative approach for the same problem using Rewriting Logic, starting with a simple and elegant declarative model, whose correctness (in terms of schedule's optimality) is self-evident. We then refine this specification, inspired by the design of our specialised algorithm, to obtain an efficient system that can be used as a playground to explore various aspects of attack-defence trees. We compare the two approaches on different benchmarks.

The FeII/MgII line flux ratio has been used as an indicator of the Fe/Mg abundance ratio in the broad line region (BLR) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). On the basis of archival rest-frame UV spectra obtained via the Hubble Space Telescope and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we investigate the FeII/MgII ratios of type 1 AGNs at z < 2. Over wide dynamic ranges of AGN properties (i.e., black hole mass, AGN luminosity, and Eddington ratio), we confirm that the FeII/MgII ratio strongly correlates with Eddington ratio but not with black hole mass, AGN luminosity, or redshift. Our results suggest that the metallicity in the BLR are physically related to the accretion activity of AGNs, but not to the global properties of galaxies (i.e., galaxy mass and luminosity). With regard to the relation between the BLR metallicity and the accretion rate of AGNs, we discuss that metal cooling may play an important role in enhancing the gas inflow into the central region of host galaxies, resulting in the high accretion rate of AGNs.

Storytelling algorithms aim to 'connect the dots' between disparate documents by linking starting and ending documents through a series of intermediate documents. Existing storytelling algorithms are based on notions of coherence and connectivity, and thus the primary way by which users can steer the story construction is via design of suitable similarity functions. We present an alternative approach to storytelling wherein the user can interactively and iteratively provide 'must use' constraints to preferentially support the construction of some stories over others. The three innovations in our approach are distance measures based on (inferred) topic distributions, the use of constraints to define sets of linear inequalities over paths, and the introduction of slack and surplus variables to condition the topic distribution to preferentially emphasize desired terms over others. We describe experimental results to illustrate the effectiveness of our interactive storytelling approach over multiple text datasets.

The impact of the QCD critical point on the propagation of nonlinear waves has been studied. The effects have been investigated within the scope of second-order causal dissipative hydrodynamics by incorporating the critical point into the equation of state, and the scaling behaviour of transport coefficients and of thermodynamic response functions. Near the critical point, the nonlinear waves are found to be significantly damped which may result in the disappearance of the Mach cone effects of the away side jet. Such damping may lead to enhancement in the fluctuations of elliptic and higher flow coefficients. Therefore, the disappearance of Mach cone effects and the enhancement of fluctuations in flow harmonics in the event-by-event analysis may be considered as signals of the critical endpoint.

We study the interaction between unitary $\rho$-dilations of a pair of Hilbert space operators and Birkhoff-James orthogonality. We prove that for two orthogonal operators $T,A$ if $\|T\|=\rho$, then $U_T \perp_B U_A$ for any unitary $\rho$-dilations $U_T$ of $T$ and $U_A$ of $A$ acting on a common space. We characterize $\varepsilon$-approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality for complex Hilbert space operators. Then find a sharp bound on $\varepsilon$ such that $T \perp_B A$ implies that $U_T \perp_B^{\varepsilon} U_A$ for any unitary $\rho$-dilations $U_T, U_A$ of $T$ and $A$ respectively. The Sch\"{a}ffer unitary dilations of a pair of contractions $T,A$ are not orthogonal in general. We construct Sch\"{a}ffer-type unitary dilations for contractions which are pairwise orthogonal.

A recent paper by Ag\'elas [Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, 2019, hal-00747680v3] claims to prove the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) and, as a special case, the Riemann Hypothesis (RH). We show that the proof given by Ag\'elas contains an error. In particular, Lemma 2.3 of Ag\'elas is false. This Lemma 2.3 is a generalisation of Theorem 1 of Vassilev-Missana [A note on prime zeta function and Riemann zeta function, Notes on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics, 22, 4 (2016), 12-15]. We show by several independent methods that Theorem 1 of Vassilev-Missana is false. We also show that Theorem 2 of Vassilev-Missana is false. This note has two aims. The first aim is to alert other researchers to these errors so they do not rely on faulty results in their own work. The second aim is pedagogical - we hope to show how these errors could have been detected earlier, which may suggest how similar errors can be avoided, or at least detected at an early stage.

Enhancement cavities where a beam of large size (several millimeters) can resonate have several applications, in particular in atomic physics. However, reaching large beam waists in a compact geometry (less than a meter long) typically brings the resonator close to the degeneracy limit. Here we experimentally study a degenerate optical cavity, 44-cm long and consisting of two flat mirrors placed in the focal planes of a lens, in a regime of intermediate finesse ($\sim 150$). We study the impact of the longitudinal misalignement on the optical gain, for different input beam waists up to 5.6~mm, and find data consistent with the prediction of a model based on ABCD propagation of Gaussian beams. We reach an optical gain of 26 for a waist of 1.4~mm, which can have an impact on several applications, in particular atom interferometry. We numerically investigate the optical gain reduction for large beam waists using the angular spectrum method to consider the effects of optical aberrations, which play an important role in such a degenerate cavity. Our calculations quantitatively reproduce the experimental data and will provide a key tool for designing enhancement cavities close to the degeneracy limit. As an illustration, we discuss the application of this resonator geometry to the enhancement of laser beams with top-hat intensity profiles.

We demonstrate a trapped-ion system with two competing dissipation channels, implemented independently on two ion species co-trapped in a Paul trap. By controlling coherent spin-oscillator couplings and optical pumping rates we explore the phase diagram of this system, which exhibits a regime analogous to that of a (phonon) laser but operates close to the quantum ground state with an average phonon number of $\bar{n}<10$. We demonstrate phase locking of the oscillator to an additional resonant drive, and also observe the phase diffusion of the resulting state under dissipation by reconstructing the quantum state from a measurement of the characteristic function.

Electromagnon is the spin wave in multiferroic materials and is known to accompany electric polarization due to the cross correlation between the charge and spin. Here, we theoretically show that the electromagnons also induce dc current upon their photoexcitations. The proposed dc current response originates from the shift current mechanism which is characterized by the so called shift vector, a geometric quantity of the Bloch wavefunctions.

Active optical media leading to interaction Hamiltonians of the form $ H = \tilde{\lambda}\, (a + a^{\dagger})^{\zeta}$ represent a crucial resource for quantum optical technology. In this paper, we address the characterization of those nonlinear media using quantum probes, as opposed to semiclassical ones. In particular, we investigate how squeezed probes may improve individual and joint estimation of the nonlinear coupling $\tilde{\lambda}$ and of the nonlinearity order $\zeta$. Upon using tools from quantum estimation, we show that: i) the two parameters are compatible, i.e. the may be jointly estimated without additional quantum noise; ii) the use of squeezed probes improves precision at fixed overall energy of the probe; iii) for low energy probes, squeezed vacuum represent the most convenient choice, whereas for increasing energy an optimal squeezing fraction may be determined; iv) using optimized quantum probes, the scaling of the corresponding precision with energy improves, both for individual and joint estimation of the two parameters, compared to semiclassical coherent probes. We conclude that quantum probes represent a resource to enhance precision in the characterization of nonlinear media, and foresee potential applications with current technology.

Intrinsic operator time of stochastic systems

Stochastic systems consisting of a very large number of independent elementary processes of the same kind, especially the radioactive decay, are considered as quantum clocks. By adapting the framework of the previously introduced concept of ideal quantum clocks, the time operator for these systems is derived and discussed. It is shown that the standard deviation of time measurement by such a stochastic device is bounded from below by the limitation of the number of elementary processes from physical reasons and by the Planck-time. As a result, any time dilatation, whether caused by extreme speed of the quantum clock or by gravitational fields, increases the standard deviation. This reduces the accuracy of time measurements especially in space navigation. In the vicinity of the Schwarzschild spherical shell of a black hole, time measurements are completely blurred and thus impossible.

We propose DecaProp (Densely Connected Attention Propagation), a new densely connected neural architecture for reading comprehension (RC). There are two distinct characteristics of our model. Firstly, our model densely connects all pairwise layers of the network, modeling relationships between passage and query across all hierarchical levels. Secondly, the dense connectors in our network are learned via attention instead of standard residual skip-connectors. To this end, we propose novel Bidirectional Attention Connectors (BAC) for efficiently forging connections throughout the network. We conduct extensive experiments on four challenging RC benchmarks. Our proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art results on all four, outperforming existing baselines by up to $2.6\%-14.2\%$ in absolute F1 score.

The Lescure-Meyniel conjecture is the analogue of Hadwiger's conjecture for the immersion order. It states that every graph $G$ contains the complete graph $K_{\chi(G)}$ as an immersion, and like its minor-order counterpart it is open even for graphs with independence number 2. We show that every graph $G$ with independence number $\alpha(G)\ge 2$ and no hole of length between $4$ and $2\alpha(G)$ satisfies this conjecture. In particular, every $C_4$-free graph $G$ with $\alpha(G)= 2$ satisfies the Lescure-Meyniel conjecture. We give another generalisation of this corollary, as follows. Let $G$ and $H$ be graphs with independence number at most 2, such that $|V(H)|\le 4$. If $G$ is $H$-free, then $G$ satisfies the Lescure-Meyniel conjecture.

Machine learning (ML) methods and neural networks (NN) are widely implemented for crop types recognition and classification based on satellite images. However, most of these studies use several multi-temporal images which could be inapplicable for cloudy regions. We present a comparison between the classical ML approaches and U-Net NN for classifying crops with a single satellite image. The results show the advantages of using field-wise classification over pixel-wise approach. We first used a Bayesian aggregation for field-wise classification and improved on 1.5% results between majority voting aggregation. The best result for single satellite image crop classification is achieved for gradient boosting with an overall accuracy of 77.4% and macro F1-score 0.66.

Semantic segmentation of motion capture sequences plays a key part in many data-driven motion synthesis frameworks. It is a preprocessing step in which long recordings of motion capture sequences are partitioned into smaller segments. Afterwards, additional methods like statistical modeling can be applied to each group of structurally-similar segments to learn an abstract motion manifold. The segmentation task however often remains a manual task, which increases the effort and cost of generating large-scale motion databases. We therefore propose an automatic framework for semantic segmentation of motion capture data using a dilated temporal fully-convolutional network. Our model outperforms a state-of-the-art model in action segmentation, as well as three networks for sequence modeling. We further show our model is robust against high noisy training labels.

This paper addresses the problem of finding the depth overhead that will be incurred when running quantum circuits on near-term quantum computers. Specifically, it is envisaged that near-term quantum computers will have low qubit connectivity: each qubit will only be able to interact with a subset of the other qubits, a reality typically represented by a qubit interaction graph in which a vertex represents a qubit and an edge represents a possible direct 2-qubit interaction (gate). Thus the depth overhead is unavoidably incurred by introducing swap gates into the quantum circuit to enable general qubit interactions. This paper proves that there exist quantum circuits where a depth overhead in $\Omega(\log n)$ must necessarily be incurred when running quantum circuits with $n$ qubits on quantum computers whose qubit interaction graph has finite degree, but that such a logarithmic depth overhead is achievable. The latter is shown by the construction of a 4-regular qubit interaction graph and associated compilation algorithm that can execute any quantum circuit with only a logarithmic depth overhead.

We use concepts from statistical physics to transform the original evolution equation for the sea ice thickness distribution $g(h)$ due to Thorndike et al., (1975) into a Fokker-Planck like conservation law. The steady solution is $g(h) = {\cal N}(q) h^q \mathrm{e}^{-~ h/H}$, where $q$ and $H$ are expressible in terms of moments over the transition probabilities between thickness categories. The solution exhibits the functional form used in observational fits and shows that for $h \ll 1$, $g(h)$ is controlled by both thermodynamics and mechanics, whereas for $h \gg 1$ only mechanics controls $g(h)$. Finally, we derive the underlying Langevin equation governing the dynamics of the ice thickness $h$, from which we predict the observed $g(h)$. The genericity of our approach provides a framework for studying the geophysical scale structure of the ice pack using methods of broad relevance in statistical mechanics.

We study encodings of Pseudo-Boolean (PB) constraints, a common type of arithmetic constraint that appears in a wide variety of combinatorial problems such as timetabling, scheduling, and resource allocation. In some cases PB constraints occur together with at-most-one (AMO) constraints over subsets of their variables (forming PB(AMO) constraints). Recent work has shown that taking account of AMOs when encoding PB constraints using decision diagrams can produce a dramatic improvement in solver efficiency. In this paper we extend the approach to other state-of-the-art encodings of PB constraints, developing several new encodings for PB(AMO) constraints. Also, we present a more compact and efficient version of the popular Generalized Totalizer encoding, named Reduced Generalized Totalizer. This new encoding is also adapted for PB(AMO) constraints for a further gain. Our experiments show that the encodings of PB(AMO) constraints can be substantially smaller than those of PB constraints. PB(AMO) encodings allow many more instances to be solved within a time limit, and solving time is improved by more than one order of magnitude in some cases. We also observed that there is no single overall winner among the considered encodings, but efficiency of each encoding may depend on PB(AMO) characteristics such as the magnitude of coefficient values.

This resource letter provides a guide to research-based assessment instruments (RBAIs) of physics and astronomy content. These are standardized assessments that were rigorously developed and revised using student ideas and interviews, expert input, and statistical analyses. RBAIs have had a major impact on physics and astronomy education reform by providing a universal and convincing measure of student understanding that instructors can use to assess and improve the effectiveness of their teaching. In this resource letter, we present an overview of all content RBAIs in physics and astronomy by topic, research validation, instructional level, format, and themes, to help faculty find the best assessment for their course.

Diacritic Recognition Performance in Arabic ASR

We present an analysis of diacritic recognition performance in Arabic Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems. As most existing Arabic speech corpora do not contain all diacritical marks, which represent short vowels and other phonetic information in Arabic script, current state-of-the-art ASR models do not produce full diacritization in their output. Automatic text-based diacritization has previously been employed both as a pre-processing step to train diacritized ASR, or as a post-processing step to diacritize the resulting ASR hypotheses. It is generally believed that input diacritization degrades ASR performance, but no systematic evaluation of ASR diacritization performance, independent of ASR performance, has been conducted to date. In this paper, we attempt to experimentally clarify whether input diacritiztation indeed degrades ASR quality, and to compare the diacritic recognition performance against text-based diacritization as a post-processing step. We start with pre-trained Arabic ASR models and fine-tune them on transcribed speech data with different diacritization conditions: manual, automatic, and no diacritization. We isolate diacritic recognition performance from the overall ASR performance using coverage and precision metrics. We find that ASR diacritization significantly outperforms text-based diacritization in post-processing, particularly when the ASR model is fine-tuned with manually diacritized transcripts.

In this paper, the Kyle model of insider trading is extended by characterizing the trading volume with long memory and allowing the noise trading volatility to follow a general stochastic process. Under this newly revised model, the equilibrium conditions are determined, with which the optimal insider trading strategy, price impact and price volatility are obtained explicitly. The volatility of the price volatility appears excessive, which is a result of the fact that a more aggressive trading strategy is chosen by the insider when uninformed volume is higher. The optimal trading strategy turns out to possess the property of long memory, and the price impact is also affected by the fractional noise.

The electromagnetic interactions of a relativistic two-body bound state are formulated in three dimensions using an equal-time (ET) formalism. This involves a systematic reduction of four-dimensional dynamics to a three-dimensional form by integrating out the time components of relative momenta. A conserved electromagnetic current is developed for the ET formalism. It is shown that consistent truncations of the electromagnetic current and the $NN$ interaction kernel may be made, order-by-order in the coupling constants, such that appropriate Ward-Takahashi identities are satisfied. A meson-exchange model of the $NN$ interaction is used to calculate deuteron vertex functions. Calculations of electromagnetic form factors for elastic scattering of electrons by deuterium are performed using an impulse-approximation current. Negative-energy components of the deuteron's vertex function and retardation effects in the meson-exchange interaction are found to have only minor effects on the deuteron form factors.

Change detection is one of the main problems in remote sensing, and is essential to the accurate processing and understanding of the large scale Earth observation data available through programs such as Sentinel and Landsat. Most of the recently proposed change detection methods bring deep learning to this context, but openly available change detection datasets are still very scarce, which limits the methods that can be proposed and tested. In this paper we present the first large scale high resolution semantic change detection (HRSCD) dataset, which enables the usage of deep learning methods for semantic change detection. The dataset contains coregistered RGB image pairs, pixel-wise change information and land cover information. We then propose several methods using fully convolutional neural networks to perform semantic change detection. Most notably, we present a network architecture that performs change detection and land cover mapping simultaneously, while using the predicted land cover information to help to predict changes. We also describe a sequential training scheme that allows this network to be trained without setting a hyperparameter that balances different loss functions and achieves the best overall results.

How to Schedule Near-Optimally under Real-World Constraints

Scheduling is a critical part of practical computer systems, and scheduling has also been extensively studied from a theoretical perspective. Unfortunately, there is a gap between theory and practice, as the optimal scheduling policies presented by theory can be difficult or impossible to perfectly implement in practice. In this work, we use recent breakthroughs in queueing theory to begin to bridge this gap. We show how to translate theoretically optimal policies -- which provably minimize mean response time (a.k.a. latency) -- into near-optimal policies that are easily implemented in practical settings. Specifically, we handle the following real-world constraints: - We show how to schedule in systems where job sizes (a.k.a. running time) are unknown, or only partially known. We do so using simple policies that achieve performance very close to the much more complicated theoretically optimal policies. - We show how to schedule in systems that have only a limited number of priority levels available. We show how to adapt theoretically optimal policies to this constrained setting and determine how many levels we need for near-optimal performance. - We show how to schedule in systems where job preemption can only happen at specific checkpoints. Adding checkpoints allows for smarter scheduling, but each checkpoint incurs time overhead. We give a rule of thumb that near-optimally balances this tradeoff.

The use of computer simulations techniques is an advantageous tool in order to evaluate and select the most appropriated site for radionuclides confinement. Modelling different scenarios allow to take decisions about which is the most safety place for the final repository. In this work, a bidimensional numerical simulation model for the analysis of dispersion of contaminants trough a saturated porous media using finite element method (FEM), was applied to study the transport of radioisotopes in a temporary nuclear repository localized in the Vadose Zone at Pe\~na Blanca, M\'exico. The 2D model used consider the Darcy's law for calculating the velocity field, which is the input data for in a second computation to solve the mass transport equation. Taking into account radionuclides decay the transport of long lived U-series daughters such as ${}^{238}\!\text{U}$, ${}^{234}\!\text{U}$, and ${}^{230}\!\text{Th}$ is evaluated. The model was validated using experimental data reported in the literature obtaining good agreement between the numerical results and the available experimental data. The simulations show preferential routes that the contaminant plume follows over time. The radionuclide flow is highly irregular and it is influenced by failures in the area and its interactions in the fluid-solid matrix. The resulting radionuclide concentration distribution is as expected. The most important result of this work is the development of a validated model to describe the migration of radionuclides in saturated porous media with some fractures.

We introduce an anisotropic mean-field approach for the dynamics of semiflexible polymers under intermediate tension, the force range where a chain is partially extended but not in the asymptotic regime of a nearly straight contour. The theory is designed to exactly reproduce the lowest order equilibrium averages of a stretched polymer, and treats the full complexity of the problem: the resulting dynamics include the coupled effects of long-range hydrodynamic interactions, backbone stiffness, and large-scale polymer contour fluctuations. Validated by Brownian hydrodynamics simulations and comparison to optical tweezer measurements on stretched DNA, the theory is highly accurate in the intermediate tension regime over a broad dynamical range, without the need for additional dynamic fitting parameters.

The Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (BBM) equation has proven to be a good approximation for the unidirectional propagation of small amplitude long waves in a channel where the crosswise variation can be safely ignored. The Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (BBM-KP) equation is the regularized version of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation which arises in various modeling scenarios corresponding to nonlinear dispersive waves that propagate principally along the $x$-axis with weak dispersive effects undergone in the direction parallel to the $y$-axis and normal to the primary direction of propagation. There is much literature on mathematical studies regarding these well known equations, however the relationship between the solutions of their underlying pure initial value problems is not fully understood. In this work, it is shown that the solution of the Cauchy problem for the BBM-KP equation converges to the solution of the Cauchy problem for the BBM equation in a suitable function space, provided that the initial data for both equations are close as the transverse variable $y \rightarrow \pm \infty$.

The internal disorder of a D-dimensional hydrogenic system, which is strongly associated to the non-uniformity of the quantum-mechanical density of its physical states, is investigated by means of the shape complexity in the two reciprocal spaces. This quantity, which is the product of the disequilibrium or averaging density and the Shannon entropic power, is mathematically expressed for both ground and excited stationary states in terms of certain entropic functionals of Laguerre and Gegenbauer (or ultraspherical) polynomials. We emphasize the ground and circular states, where the complexity is explicitly calculated and discussed by means of the quantum numbers and dimensionality. Finally, the position and momentum shape complexities are numerically discussed for various physical states and dimensionalities, and the dimensional and Rydberg energy limits as well as their associated uncertainty products are explicitly given. As a byproduct, it is shown that the shape complexity of the system in a stationary state does not depend on the strength of the Coulomb potential involved.

In this paper, the optimal trajectory and deployment of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), used as aerial base stations to collect data from ground Internet of Things (IoT) devices, is investigated. In particular, to enable reliable uplink communications for IoT devices with a minimum energy consumption, a new approach for optimal mobility of the UAVs is proposed. First, given a fixed ground IoT network, the total transmit power of the devices is minimized by properly clustering the IoT devices with each cluster being served by one UAV. Next, to maintain energy-efficient communications in time-varying mobile IoT networks, the optimal trajectories of the UAVs are determined by exploiting the framework of optimal transport theory. Simulation results show that by using the proposed approach, the total transmit power of IoT devices for reliable uplink communications can be reduced by 56% compared to the fixed Voronoi deployment method. Moreover, our results yield the optimal paths that will be used by UAVs to serve the mobile IoT devices with a minimum energy consumption.

While high-resolution cross-correlation spectroscopy (HRCCS) techniques have proven effective at characterizing the atmospheres of transiting and non-transiting hot Jupiters, the limitations of these techniques are not well understood. We present a series of simulations of one HRCCS technique, which combines the cross-correlation functions from multiple epochs, to place temperature and contrast limits on the accessible exoplanet population for the first time. We find that planets approximately Saturn-size and larger within $\sim$0.2 AU of a Sun-like star are likely to be detectable with current instrumentation in the $L$-band, a significant expansion compared with the previously-studied population. Cooler ($ \rm T_{eq} \leq 1000$ K) exoplanets are more detectable than suggested by their photometric contrast alone as a result of chemical changes which increase spectroscopic contrast. The $L$-band CH$_4$ spectrum of cooler exoplanets enables robust constraints on the atmospheric C/O ratio at $\rm T_{eq} \sim 900K$, which have proven difficult to obtain for hot Jupiters. These results suggest that the multi-epoch approach to HRCCS can detect and characterize exoplanet atmospheres throughout the inner regions of Sun-like systems with existing high-resolution spectrographs. We find that many epochs of modest signal-to-noise ($\rm S/N_{epoch} \sim 1500$) yield the clearest detections and constraints on C/O, emphasizing the need for high-precision near-infrared telluric correction with short integration times.

Robust control design for quantum systems has been recognized as a key task in the development of practical quantum technology. In this paper, we present a systematic numerical methodology of sampling-based learning control (SLC) for control design of quantum systems with uncertainties. The SLC method includes two steps of "training" and "testing". In the training step, an augmented system is constructed using artificial samples generated by sampling uncertainty parameters according to a given distribution. A gradient flow based learning algorithm is developed to find the control for the augmented system. In the process of testing, a number of additional samples are tested to evaluate the control performance where these samples are obtained through sampling the uncertainty parameters according to a possible distribution. The SLC method is applied to three significant examples of quantum robust control including state preparation in a three-level quantum system, robust entanglement generation in a two-qubit superconducting circuit and quantum entanglement control in a two-atom system interacting with a quantized field in a cavity. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the SLC approach even when uncertainties are quite large, and show its potential for robust control design of quantum systems.

We present here a series of numerical simulations of the development of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in a relativistically hot plasma. The physical parameters in the unperturbed state are chosen to be representative of local conditions encountered in Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe), with a main magnetic field perpendicular to a mildly relativistic shear layers. By using a numerical code for Relativistic MHD, we investigate the effect of an additional magnetic field component aligned with the shear velocity, and we follow the evolution of the instability to the saturation and turbulent regimes. Based on the resulting flow structure, we then compute synchrotron maps in order to evaluate the signature of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability on the emission and we investigate how the time scale and the amplitude of the synchrotron modulations depend on shear velocity and magnetic field. Finally we compare our results to the observed variable features in the Crab Nebula. We show that the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability cannot account for the wisps variability, but it might be responsible for the time dependent filamentary structure observed in the main torus.

The Data Handling Pipeline ("Pipeline") has been developed for the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope (Fermi) Large Area Telescope (LAT) which launched in June 2008. Since then it has been in use to completely automate the production of data quality monitoring quantities, reconstruction and routine analysis of all data received from the satellite and to deliver science products to the collaboration and the Fermi Science Support Center. Aside from the reconstruction of raw data from the satellite (Level 1), data reprocessing and various event-level analyses are also reasonably heavy loads on the pipeline and computing resources. These other loads, unlike Level 1, can run continuously for weeks or months at a time. In addition it receives heavy use in performing production Monte Carlo tasks. The software comprises web-services that allow online monitoring and provides charts summarizing work flow aspects and performance information. The server supports communication with several batch systems such as LSF and BQS and recently also Sun Grid Engine and Condor. This is accomplished through dedicated job control services that for Fermi are running at SLAC and the other computing site involved in this large scale framework, the Lyon computing center of IN2P3. While being different in the logic of a task, we evaluate a separate interface to the Dirac system in order to communicate with EGI sites to utilize Grid resources, using dedicated Grid optimized systems rather than developing our own.

Quantum mechanics establishes a fundamental bound for the minimum evolution time between two states of a given system. Known as the quantum speed limit (QSL), it is a useful tool in the context of quantum control, where the speed of some control protocol is usually intended to be as large as possible. While QSL expressions for time-independent hamiltonians have been well studied, the time-dependent regime has remained somewhat unexplored, albeit being usually the relevant problem to be compared with when studying systems controlled by external fields. In this paper we explore the relation between optimal times found in quantum control and the QSL bound, in the (relevant) time-dependent regime, by discussing the ubiquitous two-level Landau-Zener type hamiltonian.

We give a Hahn-Banach Characterization for convex-cyclicity. We also obtain an example of a bounded linear operator $S$ on a Banach space with $\sigma_{p}(S^*)=\emptyset$ such that $S$ is convex-cyclic, but $S$ is not weakly hypercyclic and $S^2 $ is not convex-cyclic. This solved two questions of Rezaei in \cite{Rezaei} when $\sigma_p(S^*)=\varnothing$. %Recently, Le\'on-Saavedra and Romero de la Rosa \cite{LeRo} provide an example of a convex-cyclic operator $S$ such that the power $S^n$ fails to be convex-cyclic with $\sigma _p(S^*)\neq \varnothing$. In fact they solved tree questions posed by Rezaei in \cite{Rezaei}. Moreover, we prove that $m$-isometries are not convex-cyclic and that $\varepsilon$-hypercyclic operators are convex-cyclic. We also characterize the diagonalizable normal operators that are convex-cyclic and give a condition on the eigenvalues of an arbitrary operator for it to be convex-cyclic. We show that certain adjoint multiplication operators are convex-cyclic and show that some are convex-cyclic but no convex polynomial of the operator is hypercyclic. Also some adjoint multiplication operators are convex-cyclic but not 1-weakly hypercyclic.

Purpose: Functional imaging is emerging as an important tool for lung cancer treatment planning and evaluation. Compared with traditional methods such as nuclear medicine ventilation-perfusion (VQ), positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computer tomography (SPECT), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which use contrast agents to form 2D or 3D functional images, ventilation imaging obtained from 4DCT lung images is convenient and cost-effective because of its availability during radiation treatment planning. Current methods of obtaining ventilation images from 4DCT lung images involve deformable image registration (DIR) and a density (HU) change-based algorithm (DIR/HU); therefore the resulting ventilation images are sensitive to the selection of DIR algorithms. Methods: We propose a deep convolutional neural network (CNN)-based method to derive the ventilation images from 4DCT directly without explicit DIR, thereby improving consistency and accuracy of ventilation images. A total of 82 sets of 4DCT and ventilation images from patients with lung cancer were studied using this method. Results: The predicted images were comparable to the label images of the test data. The similarity index and correlation coefficient averaged over the ten-fold cross validation were 0.883+-0.034 and 0.878+-0.028, respectively. Conclusions: The results demonstrate that deep CNN can generate ventilation imaging from 4DCT without explicit deformable image registration, reducing the associated uncertainty.

We study type IIA configurations of D4 branes and three kinds of NS fivebranes. The D4 brane world-volume has finite extent in three directions, giving rise to a two-dimensional low-energy field theory. The models have generically $(0,2)$ supersymmetry. We determine the rules to read off the spectrum and interactions of the field theory from the brane box configuration data. We discuss the construction of theories with enhanced $(0,4)$, $(0,6)$ and $(0,8)$ supersymmetry. Using T-duality along the directions in which the D4 branes are finite, the configuration can be mapped to D1 branes at $\IC^4/\Gamma$ singularities, with $\Gamma$ an abelian subgroup of SU(4). This provides a rederivation of the rules in the brane box model. The enhancement of supersymmetry has a nice geometrical interpretation in the singularity picture in terms of the holonomy group of the four-fold singularity.

mm-Wave communication systems use narrow directional beams due to the spectrum's characteristic nature: high path and penetration losses. The mobile and the base station primarily employ beams in line of sight (LoS) direction and when needed in non-line of sight direction. Beam management protocol adapts the base station and mobile side beam direction during user mobility and to sustain the link during blockages. To avoid outage in transient pedestrian blockage of the LoS path, the mobile uses reflected or NLoS path available in indoor environments. Reflected paths can sustain time synchronization and maintain connectivity during temporary blockages. In outdoor environments, such reflections may not be available and prior work relied on dense base station deployment or co-ordinated multi-point access to address outage problem. Instead of dense and hence cost-intensive network deployments, we found experimentally that the mobile can capitalize on ground reflection. We developed TERRA protocol to effectively handle mobile side beam direction during transient blockage events. TERRA avoids outage during pedestrian blockages 84.5 $\%$ of the time in outdoor environments on concrete and gravel surfaces. TERRA also enables the mobile to perform a soft handover to a reserve neighbor base station in the event of a permanent blockage, without requiring any side information, unlike the existing works. Evaluations show that TERRA maintains received signal strength close to the optimal solution while keeping track of the neighbor base station.

Security of computers and the networks that connect them is increasingly becoming of great significance. Computer security is defined as the protection of computing systems against threats to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. There are two types of intruders: external intruders, who are unauthorized users of the machines they attack, and internal intruders, who have permission to access the system with some restrictions. This chapter presents a soft computing approach to detect intrusions in a network. Among the several soft computing paradigms, we investigated fuzzy rule-based classifiers, decision trees, support vector machines, linear genetic programming and an ensemble method to model fast and efficient intrusion detection systems. Empirical results clearly show that soft computing approach could play a major role for intrusion detection.

We investigate the acceleration of shock waves to relativistic velocities in the outer layers of exploding stars. By concentrating the explosion energy in the outermost ejecta, such trans-relativistic blast waves can serve as the progenitors of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs); in particular, the ``baryon-loading'' problem that plagues many models of GRBs is circumvented. We present physically motivated and numerically validated analytic expressions to describe trans-relativistic blast waves in supernovae. We find that relativistic ejecta are enhanced in more centrally condensed envelopes, e.g., for radiative envelopes, when the luminosity approaches the Eddington limit. We present convenient formulae for estimating the relativistic ejecta from a given progenitor. We apply our analytic and numerical methods to a model of SN 1998bw, finding significantly enhanced relativistic ejecta compared to previous studies. We propose that GRB 980425 is associated with SN 1998bw and may have resulted from an approximately spherical explosion producing ~10^-6 M_sun of mildly relativistic ejecta with mean Lorentz factor ~2, which then interacted with a dense circumstellar wind with mass loss rate ~few x 10^-4 M_sun/yr. A highly asymmetric explosion is not required. An extreme model of ``hypernova'' explosions in massive stars is able to account for the energetics and relativistic ejecta velocities required by many of the observed cosmological GRBs. We present simplified models of explosions resulting from accretion-induced collapse of white dwarfs and phase transitions of neutron stars. While we find increased energies in relativistic ejecta compared to previous studies, these explosions are unlikely to be observed at cosmological distances with current detectors. (abridged)

We quantify and discuss the footprints of neutral hydrogen in the intergalactic medium (IGM) on the spectra of high-redshift (z ~ 6) sources, using mock spectra generated from hydrodynamical simulations of the IGM. We show that it should be possible to extract relevant parameters, including the mean neutral fraction in the IGM, and the radius of the local cosmological Stromgren region, from the flux distribution in the observed spectra of distant sources. We focus on quasars, but a similar analysis is applicable to galaxies and gamma ray burst (GRB) afterglows. We explicitly include uncertainties in the spectral shape of the assumed source template near the Lyman alpha line. Our results suggest that a mean neutral hydrogen fraction, x(HI) of unity can be statistically distinguished from x(HI)<0.01, by combining the spectra of tens of bright (M = -27) quasars. Alternatively, the same distinction can be achieved using the spectra of several hundred sources that are ~100 times fainter. Furthermore, if the radius of the Stromgren sphere can be independently constrained to within ~10 percent, this distinction can be achieved using a single source. The information derived from such spectra will help in settling the current debate as to what extent the universe was reionized at redshifts near z=6.

We study the numerical behaviour of a particle method for gradient flows involving linear and nonlinear diffusion. This method relies on the discretisation of the energy via non-overlapping balls centred at the particles. The resulting scheme preserves the gradient flow structure at the particle level, and enables us to obtain a gradient descent formulation after time discretisation. We give several simulations to illustrate the validity of this method, as well as a detailed study of one-dimensional aggregation-diffusion equations.

Order parameter fluctuations (the largest cluster size distribution) are studied within a three-dimensional bond percolation model on small lattices. Cumulant ratios measuring the fluctuations exhibit distinct features near the percolation transition (pseudocritical point), providing a method for its identification. The location of the critical point in the continuous limit can be estimated without variation of the system size. This method is remarkably insensitive to finite-size effects and may be applied even for a very small system. The possibility of using various measurable quantities for sorting events makes the procedure useful in studying clusterization phenomena, in particular nuclear multifragmentation. Finite-size scaling and delta-scaling relations are examined. The model shows inconsistency with some of the delta-scaling expectations. The role of surface effects is evaluated by comparing results for free and periodic boundary conditions.

Deep Generative Model for Image Inpainting with Local Binary Pattern Learning and Spatial Attention

Deep learning (DL) has demonstrated its powerful capabilities in the field of image inpainting. The DL-based image inpainting approaches can produce visually plausible results, but often generate various unpleasant artifacts, especially in the boundary and highly textured regions. To tackle this challenge, in this work, we propose a new end-to-end, two-stage (coarse-to-fine) generative model through combining a local binary pattern (LBP) learning network with an actual inpainting network. Specifically, the first LBP learning network using U-Net architecture is designed to accurately predict the structural information of the missing region, which subsequently guides the second image inpainting network for better filling the missing pixels. Furthermore, an improved spatial attention mechanism is integrated in the image inpainting network, by considering the consistency not only between the known region with the generated one, but also within the generated region itself. Extensive experiments on public datasets including CelebA-HQ, Places and Paris StreetView demonstrate that our model generates better inpainting results than the state-of-the-art competing algorithms, both quantitatively and qualitatively. The source code and trained models will be made available at https://github.com/HighwayWu/ImageInpainting.

The interpretations of a particular quantum gedanken experiment provided by Bohmian mechanics and consistent histories are shown to contradict each other, both in the absence and in the presence of a measuring device. The consistent history result seems closer to standard quantum mechanics, and shows no evidence of the mysterious nonlocal influences present in the Bohmian description.

Genome-wide epistasis analysis is a powerful tool to infer gene interactions, which can guide drug and vaccine development and lead to a deeper understanding of microbial pathogenesis. We have considered all complete SARS-CoV-2 genomes deposited in the GISAID repository until \textbf{four} different cut-off dates, and used Direct Coupling Analysis together with an assumption of Quasi-Linkage Equilibrium to infer epistatic contributions to fitness from polymorphic loci. We find \textbf{eight} interactions, of which three between pairs where one locus lies in gene ORF3a, both loci holding non-synonymous mutations. We also find interactions between two loci in gene nsp13, both holding non-synonymous mutations, and four interactions involving one locus holding a synonymous mutation. Altogether we infer interactions between loci in viral genes ORF3a and nsp2, nsp12 and nsp6, between ORF8 and nsp4, and between loci in genes nsp2, nsp13 and nsp14. The paper opens the prospect to use prominent epistatically linked pairs as a starting point to search for combinatorial weaknesses of recombinant viral pathogens.

Subtleties in the interpretation of hazard ratios

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
The hazard ratio is one of the most commonly reported measures of treatment effect in randomised trials, yet the source of much misinterpretation. This point was made clear by (Hernan, 2010) in commentary, which emphasised that the hazard ratio contrasts populations of treated and untreated individuals who survived a given period of time, populations that will typically fail to be comparable - even in a randomised trial - as a result of different pressures or intensities acting on both populations. The commentary has been very influential, but also a source of surprise and confusion. In this note, we aim to provide more insight into the subtle interpretation of hazard ratios and differences, by investigating in particular what can be learned about treatment effect from the hazard ratio becoming 1 after a certain period of time. Throughout, we will focus on the analysis of randomised experiments, but our results have immediate implications for the interpretation of hazard ratios in observational studies.

In order to generate novel 3D shapes with machine learning, one must allow for interpolation. The typical approach for incorporating this creative process is to interpolate in a learned latent space so as to avoid the problem of generating unrealistic instances by exploiting the model's learned structure. The process of the interpolation is supposed to form a semantically smooth morphing. While this approach is sound for synthesizing realistic media such as lifelike portraits or new designs for everyday objects, it subjectively fails to directly model the unexpected, unrealistic, or creative. In this work, we present a method for learning how to interpolate point clouds. By encoding prior knowledge about real-world objects, the intermediate forms are both realistic and unlike any existing forms. We show not only how this method can be used to generate "creative" point clouds, but how the method can also be leveraged to generate 3D models suitable for sculpture.

The energy spectrum of gravitational waves (GWs), which depicts the energy of GWs per unit volume of space per logarithmic frequency interval normalized to the critical density of the Universe, is a widely used way for quantifying the sensitivity of GW detectors and the strength of GWs, since it has the advantage of having a clear physical meaning. It was found that the energy spectrum of GWs depends on the gauge when the GWs beyond the linear order perturbations are considered. We show that this gauge dependence issue originates from the inappropriate description for the energy of GWs. With the proper description for the energy of GWs, we give a well-defined energy spectrum of GWs, in which the gauge issue disappears naturally.

Discrimination between roles of fissioning nucleus and asymmetry degree of freedom on the even-odd structure in fission-fragment yields

Based on a wide systematics of fission-fragment distributions measured in low-energy fission, the even-odd staggering in the fission-fragment element yields is investigated. The well-established evolution of the global even-odd effect with the fissioning system is found to be only a partial aspect of the even-odd structure. Indeed, it is shown that the global even-odd effect is varying systematically with the mean asymmetry of the fission-fragment distribution, and that the general increase of the even-odd staggering with asymmetry is depending on the fissioning system. Thus, the dependency of the even-odd effect with the fissioning system is accredited in part to the asymmetry evolution of the charge distribution, and not solely related to the dissipated energy as it has been done earlier. This interpretation is strongly supported by data measured in inverse kinematics, which cover the complete charge distribution and include precise yields at symmetry. The relevance of the order parameter to describe the even-odd effect in fission-fragment yields as a general property is explored.

In this work, we show a correspondence between linear support vector machines (SVMs) and entanglement witnesses, and use this correspondence to generate entanglement witnesses for bipartite and tripartite qubit (and qudit) target entangled states. An SVM allows for the construction of a hyperplane that clearly delineates between separable states and the target entangled state; this hyperplane is a weighted sum of observables ('features') whose coefficients are optimized during the training of the SVM. We demonstrate with this method the ability to obtain witnesses that require only local measurements even when the target state is a non-stabilizer state. Furthermore, we show that SVMs are flexible enough to allow us to rank features, and to reduce the number of features systematically while bounding the inference error. This allows us to derive W state witnesses capable of detecting entanglement with fewer measurement terms than the fidelity method dominant in today's literature. The utility of this approach is demonstrated on quantum hardware furnished through the IBM Quantum Experience.

HETE-2 has confirmed the connection between GRBs and Type Ic supernovae. Thus we now know that the progenitors of long GRBs are massive stars. HETE-2 has also provided strong evidence that the properties of X-Ray Flashes (XRFs) and GRBs form a continuum, and therefore that these two types of bursts are the same phenomenon. We show that both the structured jet and the uniform jet models can explain the observed properties of GRBs reasonably well. However, if one tries to account for the properties of both XRFs and GRBs in a unified picture, the uniform jet model works reasonably well while the structured jet model fails utterly. The uniform jet model of XRFs and GRBs implies that most GRBs have very small jet opening angles (~ half a degree). This suggests that magnetic fields play a crucial role in GRB jets. The model also implies that the energy radiated in gamma rays is ~100 times smaller than has been thought. Most importantly, the model implies that there are ~10^4 -10^5 more bursts with very small jet opening angles for every such burst we see. Thus the rate of GRBs could be comparable to the rate of Type Ic core collapse supernovae. Accurate, rapid localizations of many XRFs, leading to identification of their X-ray and optical afterglows and the determination of their redshifts, will be required in order to confirm or rule out these profound implications. HETE-2 is ideally suited to do this (it has localized 16 XRFs in ~2 years), whereas Swift is not. The unique insights into the structure of GRB jets, the rate of GRBs, and the nature of Type Ic supernovae that XRFs may provide therefore constitute a compelling scientific case for continuing HETE-2 during the Swift mission.

In this Letter, we study how cooperation is organized in complex topologies by analyzing the evolutionary (replicator) dynamics of the Prisoner's Dilemma, a two-players game with two available strategies, defection and cooperation, whose payoff matrix favors defection. We show that, asymptotically, the population is partitioned into three subsets: individuals that always cooperate ({\em pure cooperators}), always defect ({\em pure defectors}) and those that intermittently change their strategy. In fact the size of the latter set is the biggest for a wide range of the "stimulus to defect" parameter. While in homogeneous random graphs pure cooperators are grouped into several clusters, in heterogeneous scale-free (SF) networks they always form a single cluster containing the most connected individuals (hubs). Our results give further insights into why cooperation in SF networks is favored.

Polarization of chirality

It has been long recognized that the spatial polarization of the electronic clouds in molecules, and the spatial arrangements of atoms into chiral molecular structures, play crucial roles in physics, chemistry and biology. However, these two fundamental concepts - chirality and polarization - have remained unrelated so far. This work connects them by introducing and exploring the concept of polarization of chirality. We show that, like charge, chirality, or handedness, can be polarized, and that such polarization leads to fundamental consequences, demonstrated here using light. First, we analyze how chirality dipoles and higher-order chirality multipoles manifest in experimental observables. Next, we show how to create chirality-polarized optical fields of alternating handedness in space. Despite being achiral, these racemic space-time light structures interact differently with chiral matter of opposite handedness, and the chirality dipole of light controls and quantifies the strength of the enantio-sensitive response. Using nonlinear interactions, we can make a medium of randomly oriented chiral molecules emit light to the left, or to the right, depending on the molecular handedness and on the chirality dipole of light. The chiral dichroism in emission direction reaches its highest possible value of 200%. Our work opens the field of chirality polarization shaping of light and new opportunities for efficient chiral discrimination and control of chiral and chirality-polarized light and matter on ultrafast time scales.

The primary interest of this paper is to discuss the role of twisting cochains in the theory of characteristic classes. We begin with the homological description of monodromy map, associated with a connection on a trivial bundle over a 1-connected manifold. We regard it as a homomorphism from the algebra of differential forms on the structure group to the algebra of differential forms on the based loopspace of the base, represented by the (reduced) bar-complex of differential forms on it. Next we discuss the notion of "twisting cochains", or more generally "twisting maps", their equivalence relation and give various examples. We show that every twisting map gives rise to a map from the coalgebra to the bar-resolution of the algebra. Further we show that in the case of genuine twisting cochains one can obtain a map from the differential forms on the gauge bundle, associated with the given principal one, to the reduced Hochschild complex of the algebra, of differential forms of the base. Then we discuss a concrete example of a twisting cochain that is defined on the polynomial de Rham forms on an algebraic group and takes values in Cech complex of the base. We show how it can be used to obtain explicit formulas for the Chern classes. We also discuss few modifications of this construction. In the last section we discuss the construction, similar to the one, used by Getzler, Jones and Petrack in their 1991 paper. We show that the map we call "Getzler-Jones-Petrack's map" is homotopy-equivalent to the map that one obtains from a twisting cochain. This enables us to find a generalization of the Bismut's class, which we regard as an image of a suitable element in the differential forms on the group under the Getzler-Jones-Petrack's map.

In this paper, we present a nonlinear least-squares fitting algorithm using B-splines with free knots. Since its performance strongly depends on the initial estimation of the free parameters (i.e. the knots), we also propose a fast and efficient knot-prediction algorithm that utilizes numerical properties of first-order B-splines. Using $\ell_p\;(p=1,2,\infty)$ norm solutions, we also provide three different strategies for properly selecting the free knots. Our initial predictions are then iteratively refined by means of a gradient-based variable projection optimization. Our method is general in nature and can be used to estimate the optimal number of knots in cases in which no a-priori information is available. To evaluate the performance of our method, we approximated a one-dimensional discrete time series and conducted an extensive comparative study using both synthetic and real-world data. We chose the problem of electrocardiogram (ECG) signal compression as a real-world case study. Our experiments on the well-known PhysioNet MIT-BIH Arrhythmia database show that the proposed method outperforms other knot-prediction techniques in terms of accuracy while requiring much lower computational complexity.

Orbital motion in binary and planetary systems is the main source of precise stellar and planetary mass measurements, and joint analysis of data from multiple observational methods can both lift degeneracies and improve precision. We set out to measure the masses of individual stars in binary systems using all the information brought by the Hipparcos and Gaia absolute astrometric missions. We present BINARYS, a tool which uses the Hipparcos and Gaia absolute astrometric data and combines it with relative astrometry and/or radial velocity measurements to determine the orbit of a binary system. It rigorously combines the Hipparcos and Gaia data (here EDR3), and it can use the Hipparcos Transit Data as needed for binaries where Hipparcos detect significant flux from the secondary component. It also support the case where Gaia resolved the system, giving an astrometric solution for both components. We determine model-independent individual masses for the first time for three systems: the two mature binaries Gl~494 ($M_1=0.584 \pm 0.003 M_{\odot}$ and $M_2=87 \pm 1 M_{\textrm{Jup}}$) and HIP~88745 ($M_1=0.96 \pm 0.02 M_{\odot}$ and $M_2= 0.60^{+ 0.02 }_{- 0.01 } M_{\odot}$), and the younger AB Dor member GJ~2060 ($M_1=0.60 ^{+ 0.06}_{- 0.05} M_{\odot}$ and $M_2=0.45 ^{+ 0.06}_{- 0.05}M_{\odot}$). The latter provides a rare test of evolutionary model predictions at young ages in the low stellar-mass range and sets a lower age limit of 100~Myr for the moving group.

The CDF II detector at the Tevatron collider reported significant tension between the measurement of the W boson mass and the Standard Model prediction, assuming that 125 GeV scalar discovered at the LHC is the Higgs boson. We calculate one loop corrections to the W boson mass within the theory of noncontractible space without the Higgs boson. It turns out that our theory provides better agreement with the CDF II detector result than the Standard Model.
