We follow-up on our works devoted to homogenization theory for linear second-order elliptic equations with coefficients that are perturbations of periodic coefficients. We have first considered equations in divergence form in [6, 7, 8]. We have next shown, in our recent work [9], using a slightly different strategy of proof than in our earlier works, that we may also address the equation --aij$\partial$iju = f. The present work is devoted to advection-diffusion equations: --aij$\partial$iju + bj$\partial$ju = f. We prove, under suitable assumptions on the coefficients aij, bj, 1 $\le$ i, j $\le$ d (typically that they are the sum of a periodic function and some perturbation in L p , for suitable p < +$\infty$), that the equation admits a (unique) invariant measure and that this measure may be used to transform the problem into a problem in divergence form, amenable to the techniques we have previously developed for the latter case.

We extend our approach based on the second order perturbation theory in the Coulomb interaction recently developed for quantum dots coupled to superconducting leads to the superconducting double quantum dot setups. Using our perturbative method we evaluate several single-particle quantities such as on-dot induced gap and generalized occupations together with the Andreev in-gap spectra and compare them with numerically exact results from the Numerical Renormalization Group and Quantum Monte Carlo finding a very good correspondence for not too strongly correlated regimes. Thus we can offer in a wide parameter range this method as an efficient and reliable alternative to the heavy numerical tools exclusively used so far for the description of such experimentally relevant systems.

We propose a new duality relation between codimension two space-like surfaces in gravitational theories and quantum states in dual Hilbert spaces. This surface/state correspondence largely generalizes the idea of holography such that we do not need to rely on any existence of boundaries in gravitational spacetimes. The present idea is motivated by the recent interpretation of AdS/CFT in terms of the tensor networks so called MERA. Moreover, we study this correspondence from the viewpoint of entanglement entropy and information metric. The Cramer-Rao bound in quantum estimation theory implies that the quantum fluctuations of radial coordinate of the AdS is highly suppressed in the large N limit.

Spectra of density perturbations produced during chaotic inflation are calculated, taking both adiabatic and isocurvature modes into account in a class of scalar-tensor theories of gravity in which the dilaton is metrically coupled. Comparing the predicted spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation anisotropies with the one observed by the COBE-DMR we calculate constraints on the parameters of these theories, which turn out to be stronger by an order-of-magnitude than those obtained from post-Newtonian experiments.

In recent years there has been a significant increase in the use of graphs as a tool for representing information. It is very important to preserve the privacy of users when one wants to publish this information, especially in the case of social graphs. In this case, it is essential to implement an anonymization process in the data in order to preserve users' privacy. In this paper we present an algorithm for graph anonymization, called Evolutionary Algorithm for Graph Anonymization (EAGA), based on edge modifications to preserve the k-anonymity model.

Sensory observations about the world are invariably ambiguous. Inference about the world's latent variables is thus an important computation for the brain. However, computational constraints limit the performance of these computations. These constraints include energetic costs for neural activity and noise on every channel. Efficient coding is one prominent theory that describes how such limited resources can best be used. In one incarnation, this leads to a theory of predictive coding, where predictions are subtracted from signals, reducing the cost of sending something that is already known. This theory does not, however, account for the costs or noise associated with those predictions. Here we offer a theory that accounts for both feedforward and feedback costs, and noise in all computations. We formulate this inference problem as message-passing on a graph whereby feedback serves as an internal control signal aiming to maximize how well an inference tracks a target state while minimizing the costs of computation. We apply this novel formulation of inference as control to the canonical problem of inferring the hidden scalar state of a linear dynamical system with Gaussian variability. The best solution depends on architectural constraints, such as Dale's law, the ubiquitous law that each neuron makes solely excitatory or inhibitory postsynaptic connections. This biological structure can create asymmetric costs for feedforward and feedback channels. Under such conditions, our theory predicts the gain of optimal predictive feedback and how it is incorporated into the inference computation. We show that there is a non-monotonic dependence of optimal feedback gain as a function of both the computational parameters and the world dynamics, leading to phase transitions in whether feedback provides any utility in optimal inference under computational constraints.

The Kruglov property and the Kruglov operator play an important role in the study of geometric properties of r.i. function spaces. We prove that the boundedness of the Kruglov operator in a r.i. space is equivalent to the uniform boundedness on this space of a sequence of operators defined by random permutations. It is shown also that there is no minimal r.i. space with the Kruglov property.

With the growing cyber-security threats, ensuring the security of data in Cloud data centers is a challenging task. A prominent type of attack on Cloud data centers is data tampering attack that can jeopardize the confidentiality and the integrity of data. In this article, we present a security and performance driven architecture for these centers that incorporates an intrusion management system for multi-tenant distributed transactional databases. The proposed architecture uses a novel data partitioning and placement scheme based on damage containment and communication cost of distributed transactions. In addition, we present a benchmarking framework for evaluating the performance of the proposed architecture. The results illustrate a trade-off between security and performance goals for Cloud data centers.

Minimization of computational errors in the fixed-point data path is often difficult task. Many signal processing algorithms use chains of consecutive additions. The analyzing technique that can be applied to fixed-point data path synthesis has been proposed. This technique takes advantage of allocating the chains of consecutive additions in order to predict growing width of the data path and minimize the design complexity and computational errors.

Spectral Effects of Fast Response Cross Kerr Non-Linearity on Quantum Gate

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
According to idealized models, a strong Kerr non-linearity may be used to build optical quantum gates for optical quantum information processing by inducing conditional phase shifts on quantum states. Recently, Shapiro (PRA 73, 062305 (2006)) argued that for a Kerr medium with non-instantaneous but fast response, essentially no phase shift is induced on two-single-photon input states, and thus a quantum gate build from such a medium cannot work. Here we show that a fast response Kerr medium induces some but very little phase shifts on a two-single-photon input state, and it is insufficient for high fidelity quantum computation. We point out that this is caused by the medium imparting spectral entanglement to the input photons. We further show that a way to circumvent this problem and achieve a high fidelity gate, is to engineer the dispersion properties of the medium to give a dominant spectral effect over the non-instantaneous response, in addition to satisfying a phase matching condition.

Observation of the Orbital Rashba-Edelstein Magnetoresistance

We report the observation of magnetoresistance (MR) originating from the orbital angular momentum transport (OAM) in a Permalloy (Py) / oxidized Cu (Cu*) heterostructure: the orbital Rashba-Edelstein magnetoresistance. The angular dependence of the MR depends on the relative angle between the induced OAM and the magnetization in a similar fashion as the spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR). Despite the absence of elements with large spin-orbit coupling, we find a sizable MR ratio, which is in contrast to the conventional SMR which requires heavy elements. By varying the thickness of the Cu* layer, we confirm that the interface is responsible for the MR, suggesting that the orbital Rashba-Edelstein effect is responsible for the generation of the OAM. Through Py thickness-dependence studies, we find that the effective values for the spin diffusion and spin dephasing lengths of Py are significantly larger than the values measured in Py / Pt bilayers, approximately by the factor of 2 and 4, respectively. This implies that another mechanism beyond the conventional spin-based scenario is responsible for the MR observed in Py / Cu* structures originated in a sizeable transport of OAM. Our findings not only unambiguously demonstrate the current-induced torque without using any heavy element via the OAM channel but also provide an important clue towards the microscopic understanding of the role that OAM transport can play for magnetization dynamics.

We discuss the flight calibration of the spectral response of the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on-board the Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO). The spectral resolution and sensitivity of the ACIS instrument have both been evolving over the course of the mission. The spectral resolution of the frontside-illuminated (FI) CCDs changed dramatically in the first month of the mission due to radiation damage. Since that time, the spectral resolution of the FI CCDs and the backside-illuminated (BI) CCDs have evolved gradually with time. We demonstrate the efficacy of charge-transfer inefficiency (CTI) correction algorithms which recover some of the lost performance. The detection efficiency of the ACIS instrument has been declining throughout the mission, presumably due to a layer of contamination building up on the filter and/or CCDs. We present a characterization of the energy dependence of the excess absorption and demonstrate software which models the time dependence of the absorption from energies of 0.4 keV and up. The spectral redistribution function and the detection efficiency are well-characterized at energies from 1.5 to 8.0 keV. The calibration at energies below 1.5 keV is challenging because of the lack of strong lines in the calibration source and also because of the inherent non-linear dependence with energy of the CTI and the absorption by the contamination layer. We have been using data from celestial sources with relatively simple spectra to determine the quality of the calibration below 1.5 keV. The analysis of these observations demonstrate that the CTI correction recovers a significant fraction of the spectral resolution of the FI CCDs and the models of the time-dependent absorption result in consistent measurements of the flux at low energies for data from a BI (S3) CCD.

We consider the simple random walk on random graphs generated by discrete point processes. This random graph has a random subset of a cubic lattice as the vertices and lines between any consecutive vertices on lines parallel to each coordinate axis as the edges. Under the assumption that discrete point processes are finitely dependent and stationary, we prove that the quenched invariance principle holds, that is, for almost every configuration of a point process, the path distribution of the walk converges weakly to that of a Brownian motion.

In the previous work, a new kind of inflation model was proposed, which has the interesting property that its perturbation equation of motion gets a correction of k^4, due to the non-linearity of the kinetic term. Nonetheless, the scale-invariance of the power spectrum remains valid, both in large-k and small-k limits. In this paper, we investigate in detail the spectral index, the index running and the tensor/scalar ratio in this model, especially on the potential-driven case, and compare the results to the current PLANCK/BICEP observational data. We also discuss the tensor spectrum in this case, which is expected to be tested by the future observations on primordial gravitational waves.

In this paper we continue our study of a complex variables version of Hilbert's seventeenth problem by generalizing some of the results from [CD]. Given a bihomogeneous polynomial $f$ of several complex variables that is positive away from the origin, we proved that there is an integer $d$ so that $||z||^{2d} f(z,{\overline z})$ is the squared norm of a holomorphic mapping. Thus, although $f$ may not itself be a squared norm, it must be the quotient of squared norms of holomorphic homogeneous polynomial mappings. The proof required some operator theory on the unit ball. In the present paper we prove that we can replace the squared Euclidean norm by squared norms arising from an orthonormal basis for the space of homogeneous polynomials on any bounded circled pseudoconvex domain of finite type. To do so we prove a compactness result for an integral operator on such domains related to the Bergman kernel function.

Computing is currently getting at the same time incredibly in the small with sensors/actuators embedded in our every- day objects and also greatly in the large with data and ser- vice clouds accessible anytime, anywhere. This Internet of Things is physically closed to the user but suffers from weak run-time execution environments. Cloud Environments provide powerful data storage and computing power but can not be easily accessed and integrate the final-user context- awareness. We consider smartphones are set to become the universal interface between these two worlds. In this position paper, we propose a middleware approach where smartphones provide service gateways to bridge the gap between IoT services and Cloud services. Since smartphones are mobile gateways, they should be able to (re)configure themself according to their place, things discovered around, and their own resources such battery. Several issues are discussed: collaborative event-based context management, adaptive and opportunistic service deployment and invocation, multi-criteria (user- and performance-oriented) optimization decision algorithm.

We have observed the ultracompact HII region G29.96-0.02 in the near infrared J, H, and K bands and in the Br-gamma line. By comparison with radio observations, we determine that the extinction to the nebula is AK = 2.14 with a 3 sigma uncertainty of 0.25. We identify the ionizing star and determine its intrinsic K magnitude. The star does not have an infrared excess and so appears to be no longer accreting. The K magnitude and the bolometric luminosity allow us to place limits on the location of the ionizing star in the HR diagram. The 3 sigma upper limit on the effective temperature of the ionizing star is 42500 K. We favor a luminosity appropriate for star with a mass in excess of about 60 solar masses. The limit on the temperature and luminosity exclude stars on the ZAMS and stars within 10^6 yr of the ZAMS. Since the age of the UC HII region is estimated to be only about 10^5 yr, we suggest that this is direct evidence that the stellar birth line for massive stars at twice solar metallicity must be significantly redder than the ZAMS.

Topological charge of families of lattice gauge fields is defined fermionically via families index theory for the overlap Dirac operator. Certain obstructions to gauge invariance of the overlap chiral fermion determinant, as well as the lattice analogues of certain obstructions to gauge fixings without the Gribov problem, have natural descriptions in this context.

We introduce a category O of modules over the elliptic quantum group of sl_N with well-behaved q-character theory. We construct asymptotic modules as analytic continuation of a family of finite-dimensional modules, the Kirillov--Reshetikhin modules. In the Grothendieck ring of this category we prove two types of identities: generalized Baxter relations in the spirit of Frenkel--Hernandez between finite-dimensional modules and asymptotic modules; three-term Baxter TQ relations of infinite-dimensional modules.

We study the dependence on the pion mass of the QCD effective charge by employing the dispersion relations for the Adler D function. This new massive analytic running coupling is compared to the effective coupling saturated by the dynamically generated gluon mass. A qualitative picture of the possible impact of the former coupling on the chiral symmetry breaking is presented.

Accurate and temporally consistent modeling of human bodies is essential for a wide range of applications, including character animation, understanding human social behavior and AR/VR interfaces. Capturing human motion accurately from a monocular image sequence is still challenging and the modeling quality is strongly influenced by the temporal consistency of the captured body motion. Our work presents an elegant solution for the integration of temporal constraints in the fitting process. This does not only increase temporal consistency but also robustness during the optimization. In detail, we derive parameters of a sequence of body models, representing shape and motion of a person, including jaw poses, facial expressions, and finger poses. We optimize these parameters over the complete image sequence, fitting one consistent body shape while imposing temporal consistency on the body motion, assuming linear body joint trajectories over a short time. Our approach enables the derivation of realistic 3D body models from image sequences, including facial expression and articulated hands. In extensive experiments, we show that our approach results in accurately estimated body shape and motion, also for challenging movements and poses. Further, we apply it to the special application of sign language analysis, where accurate and temporal consistent motion modelling is essential, and show that the approach is well-suited for this kind of application.

High-energy photons are a powerful probe for astrophysics and for fundamental physics under extreme conditions. During the recent years, our knowledge of the most violent phenomena in the Universe has impressively progressed thanks to the advent of new detectors for high-energy gamma-rays. Observation of gamma-rays gives an exciting view of the high-energy universe thanks to satellite-based telescopes (AGILE, GLAST) and to ground-based detectors like the Cherenkov telescopes (H.E.S.S. and MAGIC in particular), which recently discovered more than 60 new very-high-energy sources. The progress achieved with the last generation of Cherenkov telescopes is comparable to the one drawn by EGRET with respect to the previous gamma-ray satellite detectors. This article reviews the present status of high-energy gamma astrophysics, with emphasis on the recent results and on the experimental developments.

We investigate the ``generalized Heron polynomial'' that relates the squared area of an n-gon inscribed in a circle to the squares of its side lengths. For a (2m+1)-gon or (2m+2)-gon, we express it as the defining polynomial of a certain variety derived from the variety of binary (2m-1)-forms having m-1 double roots. Thus we obtain explicit formulas for the areas of cyclic heptagons and octagons, and illuminate some mysterious features of Robbins' formulas for the areas of cyclic pentagons and hexagons. We also introduce a companion family of polynomials that relate the squared area of an n-gon inscribed in a circle, one of whose sides is a diameter, to the squared lengths of the other sides. By similar algebraic techniques we obtain explicit formulas for these polynomials for all n <= 7.

We present the detectability of strong mid-infrared (MIR) light echoes from faint debris disks illuminated by bright superflares of M-dwarf stars. Circumstellar dust grains around an M-dwarf star are simultaneously heated by superflare radiation. One can thus expect their re-emission in the MIR wavelength regime. According to our model calculations for the Proxima Centauri system, the nearest M-dwarf star system, thermal emission echos from an inner ($r < 1~{\rm au}$) debris disk with a total mass down to that of the solar system's zodiacal dust are expected to emerge at wavelengths longer than $\sim 10~{\rm \mu m}$ with a strength comparable to or greater than a white-light superflare. Also, observable echos from inner- ($r \lesssim 0.5~{\rm au}$) debris disks irradiated by energetic ($\gtrsim 10^{33.5}~{\rm ergs}$) superflares of nearby ($D < 3~{\rm pc}$) M-dwarfs are expected. Our simulation results indicate that superflare monitoring using high-speed optical instruments like OASES and its prompt follow-up using ground-based MIR instruments, such as TAO/MIMIZUKU, can detect these MIR light echoes from debris disks around solar neighborhood flare stars.

A one-dimensional topological superconductor features a single fermionic zero mode that is delocalized over two Majorana bound states located at the ends of the system. We study a pair of spatially separated nanomechanical oscillators tunnel-coupled to these Majorana modes. Most interestingly, we demonstrate that the combination of electron-phonon coupling and a finite charging energy on the mesoscopic topological superconductor can lead to an effective superexchange between the oscillators via the non-local fermionic zero mode. We further show that this teleportation mechanism leads to entanglement of the two oscillators over distances that can significantly exceed the coherence length of the superconductor.

We investigate the ballistic motion of electrons in III-V semiconductor quantum wells with Rashba spin-orbit coupling in a perpendicular magnetic field. Taking into account the full quantum dynamics of the problem, we explore the modifications of classical cyclotron orbits due to spin-orbit interaction. As a result, for electron energies comparable with the cyclotron energy the dynamics are particularly rich and not adequately described by semiclassical approximations. Our study is complementary to previous semiclassical approaches concentrating on the regime of weaker fields.

The M\"ossbauer measurements performed on powdered single crystals of FeTe0.5Se0.5 (Tc ~ 14.7 K) reveal minor content of two impurity phases, identified as Fe3O4 and Fe7Se8, among the major tetragonal phase. From the shape of impurity subspectra it follows that Fe7Se8 behaves in superparamagnetic manner, most likely because of randomly distributed Fe vacancies in the lattice structure of Fe Te Se. The magnetite content in the powdered absorber exposed to ambient air conditions remains unchanged during period of 16 months. Ageing effects were observed for the samples stored under argon atmosphere and small increase of the isomer shift of the doublet was detected. Presented temperature dependence of the hyperfine parameters can be explained as due to possible orthorhombic distortion or to temperature behaviour of impurity phases Fe3O4 and Fe7Se8. Strong tendency to formation of crystalline texture of powdered sample is observed.

This the first of a series of articles dealing with abstract classification theory. The apparatus to assign systems of cardinal invariants to models of a first order theory (or determine its impossibility) is developed in [Sh:a]. It is natural to try to extend this theory to classes of models which are described in other ways. Work on the classification theory for nonelementary classes [Sh:88] and for universal classes [Sh:300] led to the conclusion that an axiomatic approach provided the best setting for developing a theory of wider application. In the first chapter we describe the axioms on which the remainder of the article depends and give some examples and context to justify this level of generality. The study of universal classes takes as a primitive the notion of closing a subset under functions to obtain a model. We replace that concept by the notion of a prime model. We begin the detailed discussion of this idea in Chapter II. One of the important contributions of classification theory is the recognition that large models can often be analyzed by means of a family of small models indexed by a tree of height at most omega. More precisely, the analyzed model is prime over such a tree. Chapter III provides sufficient conditions for prime models over such trees to exist.

Tagging information of one language is used. Word frequency and position information for high and low frequency words are represented in two different vector forms for pattern matching. New anchor point finding and noise elimination techniques are introduced. We obtained a 73.1\% precision. We also show how the results can be used in the compilation of domain-specific noun phrases.

The Protein Data Bank (PDB) contains more than 135 000 entries today. From these, relatively few amyloid structures can be identified, since amyloids are insoluble in water. Therefore, mostly solid state NMR-recorded amyloid structures are deposited in the PDB. Based on the geometric analysis of these deposited structures we have prepared an automatically updated webserver, which generates the list of the deposited amyloid structures, and, additionally, those globular protein entries, which have amyloid-like substructures of a given size and characteristics. We have found that applying only the properly chosen geometric conditions, it is possible to identify the deposited amyloid structures, and a number of globular proteins with amyloid-like substructures. We have analyzed these globular proteins and have found that many of them are known to form amyloids more easily than many other globular proteins. Our results relate to the method of (Stankovic, I. et al. (2017): Construction of Amyloid PDB Files Database. Transactions on Internet Research. 13 (1): 47-51), who have applied a hybrid textual-search and geometric approach for finding amyloids in the PDB. If one intends to identify a subset of the PDB for some applications, the identification algorithm needs to be re-run periodically, since in 2017, on average, every day 30 new entries were deposited in the data bank. Our webserver is updated regularly and automatically, and the identified amyloid- and partial amyloid structures can be viewed or their list can be downloaded from the site https://pitgroup.org/amyloid.

Practical density functional theory (DFT) owes its success to the groundbreaking work of Kohn and Sham that introduced the exact calculation of the non-interacting kinetic energy of the electrons using an auxiliary mean-field system. However, the full power of DFT will not be unleashed until the exact relationship between the electron density and the non-interacting kinetic energy is found. Various attempts have been made to approximate this functional, similar to the exchange--correlation functional, with much less success due to the larger contribution of kinetic energy and its more non-local nature. In this work we propose a new and efficient regularization method to train density functionals based on deep neural networks, with particular interest in the kinetic-energy functional. The method is tested on (effectively) one-dimensional systems, including the hydrogen chain, non-interacting electrons, and atoms of the first two periods, with excellent results. For the atomic systems, the generalizability of the regularization method is demonstrated by training also an exchange--correlation functional, and the contrasting nature of the two functionals is discussed from a machine-learning perspective.

Automated writing evaluation (AWE) has been shown to be an effective mechanism for quickly providing feedback to students. It has already seen wide adoption in enterprise-scale applications and is starting to be adopted in large-scale contexts. Training an AWE model has historically required a single batch of several hundred writing examples and human scores for each of them. This requirement limits large-scale adoption of AWE since human-scoring essays is costly. Here we evaluate algorithms for ensuring that AWE models are consistently trained using the most informative essays. Our results show how to minimize training set sizes while maximizing predictive performance, thereby reducing cost without unduly sacrificing accuracy. We conclude with a discussion of how to integrate this approach into large-scale AWE systems.

We study Willmore surfaces of constant Moebius curvature $K$ in $S^4$. It is proved that such a surface in $S^3$ must be part of a minimal surface in $R^3$ or the Clifford torus. Another result in this paper is that an isotropic surface (hence also Willmore) in $S^4$ of constant $K$ could only be part of a complex curve in $C^2\cong R^4$ or the Veronese 2-sphere in $S^4$. It is conjectured that they are the only examples possible. The main ingredients of the proofs are over-determined systems and isoparametric functions.

We compute the genuine SUSY one-loop quantum contributions to flavour-changing MSSM Higgs-boson decays into $b \bar s$ and $s \bar b$ using the full diagrammatic approach that is valid for all $\tan \beta$ values and do not rely on the mass-insertion approximation for the characteristic flavour-changing parameter. We analyze in full detail the dependence of these flavour-changing partial widths on all the relevant MSSM parameters and also study the non-decoupling behaviour of these widths with the SUSY mass parameters. We find that these contributions are sizable as compared to the SM ones, and can be very efficient as an indirect method in the future search for Supersymmetry.

In this paper we study the problem of the global existence (in time) of weak, entropic solutions to a system of three hyperbolic conservation laws, in one space dimension, for large initial data. The system models the dynamics of phase transitions in an isothermal fluid; in Lagrangian coordinates, the phase interfaces are represented as stationary contact discontinuities. We focus on the persistence of solutions consisting in three bulk phases separated by two interfaces. Under some stability conditions on the phase configuration and by a suitable front tracking algorithm we show that, if the BV-norm of the initial data is less than an explicit (large) threshold, then the Cauchy problem has global solutions.

For families of $K3$ surfaces, we establish a sufficient criterion for real or complex multiplication. Our criterion is arithmetic in nature. It may show, at first, that the generic fibre of the family has a nontrivial endomorphism field. Moreover, the endomorphism field does not shrink under specialisation. As an application, we present two explicit families of $K3$ surfaces having real multiplication by $\bbQ(\sqrt{2})$ and $\bbQ(\sqrt{5})$, respectively.

We calculate and verify with simulations the ratio between the average translational and rotational energies of systems with rough, inelastic particles, either forced or freely cooling. The ratio shows non-equipartition of energy. In stationary flows, this ratio depends mainly on the particle roughness, but in nonstationary flows, such as freely cooling granular media, it also depends strongly on the normal dissipation. The approach presented here unifies and simplifies different results obtained by more elaborate kinetic theories. We observe that the boundary induced energy flux plays an important role.

The problem of endogeneity in statistics and econometrics is often handled by introducing instrumental variables (IV) which fulfill the mean independence assumption, i.e. the unobservable is mean independent of the instruments. When full independence of IV's and the unobservable is assumed, nonparametric IV regression models and nonparametric demand models lead to nonlinear integral equations with unknown integral kernels. We prove convergence rates for the mean integrated square error of the iteratively regularized Newton method applied to these problems. Compared to related results we derive stronger convergence results that rely on weaker nonlinearity restrictions. We demonstrate in numerical simulations for a nonparametric IV regression that the method produces better results than the standard model.

Three classes of classical r-matrices for sl(4,C) algebra are constructed in quasi-Frobenius algebra approach. They satisfy CYBE and are spanned respectively on 8,10,12 generators. The o(4,2) reality condition can be imposed only on the eight dimensional r matrices with dimension-full deformation parameters. Contrary to the Poincare algebra case, it appears that all deformations with a mass-like deformation parameter (kappa- deformations) are described by classical r-matrices satisfying CYBE.

Let us consider two companies A and B. Both of them are interested in buying a set of some goods. The company A is a big corporation and it knows the actual value of the good on the market and is able to observe the previous values of them. The company B has no information about the actual value of the good but it can compare the actual position of the good on the market with the previous position of the good offered. Both of the players want to choose the very best object overall. The recall is not allowed. The number of the objects is fixed and finite. One can think about these two types of buyers a business customer vs. an individual customer. The mathematical model of the competition between them is presented and the solution is defined and constructed.

The critical step for future quantum industry demands realization of efficient information exchange between different-platform hybrid systems, including photonic and magnonic systems, that can harvest advantages of distinct platforms. The major restraining factor for the progress in certain hybrid systems is the fundamentally weak coupling parameter between the elemental particles. This restriction impedes the entire field of hybrid magnonics by making realization of scalable on-chip hybrid magnonic systems unattainable. In this work, we propose a general flexible approach for realization of on-chip hybrid magnonic systems with unprecedentedly strong coupling parameters. The approach is based on multilayered micro-structures containing superconducting, insulating and ferromagnetic layers with modified both photon phase velocities and magnon eigen-frequencies. Phenomenologically, the enhanced coupling strength is provided by the radically reduced photon mode volume. The microscopic mechanism of the phonon-to-magnon coupling in studied systems evidences formation of the long-range superconducting coherence via thick strong ferromagnetic layers. This coherence is manifested by coherent superconducting screening of microwave fields by the superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor three-layers in presence of magnetization precession. This discovery offers new opportunities in microwave superconducting spintronics for quantum technologies.

Here, we report Landau regulation in Raman modes for geometric graphene structures including single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). First-principles calculations show that radial-tangential Raman modes (RTMs) (comprising radial and tangential Eigenvectors) appear in order, following radial breading mode (RBM) (~150 cm-1). RTMs reveal two degenerated or non-degenerated frequencies per node and extend upto G (~1590 cm-1). In Raman measurements for SWNTs, we demonstrate the existence of RTMs at ~180-1440 cm-1, which have been partially interpreted as RBM band for ~180-300 cm-1 and intermediate frequency mode for 600-1300 cm-1. We reinterpret the RBM band as a coalescent signature of RBM (~150-170 cm-1) and 1st node RTM (~170-190 cm-1) for geometric graphene structures of ~2.0-2.2 nm in diameter. The sequential appearance of RBM and RTM and the revelation of the double degeneracy are due to Landau regulation working on spatial variation of the radial and tangential Eigenvectors. Our findings provide a further way of understanding the nature of low dimensional materials utilizing Raman spectroscopy.

In this setting, we then introduce the notion of weakly holonomic $G$ equivariant $\mathcal{D}$ modules. Finally, we define the duality functor on the category of weakly holonomic modules and study some of its properties.

To date, the simulation of organ deformations for applications like therapy planning or image-guided interventions is calculated by solving the elastodynamics equations. While efficient solvers have been proposed for fast simulations, methods that are both real-time and accurate are still an open challenge. An ideal, interactive solver would be able to provide physically and numerically accurate results at high frame rate, which requires efficient force computation and time integration. Towards this goal, we explore in this paper for the first time the use of neural networks to directly learn the underlying biomechanics. Given a 3D mesh of a soft tissue segmented from medical images, we train a neural network to predict vertex-wise accelerations for a large time step based on the current state of the system. The model is trained using the deformation of a bar under torsion, and evaluated on different motions, geometries, and hyperelastic material models. For predictions of ten times the original time step we observed a mean error of 0.017mm $\pm$ 0.014 (0.032) at a mesh size of 50mm x 50mm x 100mm. Predictions at 20dt yield an error of 2.10mm $\pm$ 1.73 (4.37) and by further increasing the prediction time step the maximum error rises to 38.3mm due to an artificial stiffening. In all experiments our proposed method stayed stable, while the reference solver fails to converge. Our experiments suggest that it is possible to directly learn the mechanical simulation and open further investigations for the direct application of machine learning to speed-up biophysics solvers.

There is a significant possibility that astrophysical black holes with nearly-extremal spins exist. Numerical simulations of such systems require suitable initial data. In this paper, we examine three methods of constructing binary-black-hole initial data, focusing on their ability to generate black holes with nearly-extremal spins: (i) Bowen-York initial data, including standard puncture data (based on conformal flatness and Bowen-York extrinsic curvature), (ii) standard quasi-equilibrium initial data (based on the extended-conformal-thin-sandwich equations, conformal flatness, and maximal slicing), and (iii) quasi-equilibrium data based on the superposition of Kerr-Schild metrics. We find that the two conformally-flat methods (i) and (ii) perform similarly, with spins up to about 0.99 obtainable at the initial time. However, in an evolution, we expect the spin to quickly relax to a significantly smaller value around 0.93 as the initial geometry relaxes. For quasi-equilibrium superposed Kerr-Schild (SKS) data [method (iii)], we construct initial data with \emph{initial} spins as large as 0.9997. We evolve SKS data sets with spins of 0.93 and 0.97 and find that the spin drops by only a few parts in 10^4 during the initial relaxation; therefore, we expect that SKS initial data will allow evolutions of binary black holes with relaxed spins above 0.99.

We study quantum circuits consisting of unitary gates, projective measurements, and control operations that steer the system towards a pure absorbing state. Two types of phase transition occur as the rate of these control operations is increased: a measurement-induced entanglement transition, and a directed percolation transition into the absorbing state (taken here to be a product state). In this work we show analytically that these transitions are generically distinct, with the quantum trajectories becoming disentangled before the absorbing state transition is reached, and we analyze their critical properties. We introduce a simple class of models where the measurements in each quantum trajectory define an Effective Tensor Network (ETN) -- a subgraph of the initial spacetime graph where nontrivial time evolution takes place. By analyzing the entanglement properties of the ETN, we show that the entanglement and absorbing-state transitions coincide only in the limit of infinite local Hilbert-space dimension. Focusing on a Clifford model which allows numerical simulations for large system sizes, we verify our predictions and study the finite-size crossover between the two transitions at large local Hilbert space dimension. We give evidence that the entanglement transition is governed by the same fixed point as in hybrid circuits without feedback.

A general setting to study a certain type of formulas, expressing characters of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ explicitly in terms of descent sets of combinatorial objects, has been developed by two of the authors. This theory is further investigated in this paper and extended to the hyperoctahedral group $B_n$. Key ingredients are a new formula for the irreducible characters of $B_n$, the signed quasisymmetric functions introduced by Poirier, and a new family of matrices of Walsh--Hadamard type. Applications include formulas for natural $B_n$-actions on coinvariant and exterior algebras and on the top homology of a certain poset in terms of the combinatorics of various classes of signed permutations, as well as a $B_n$-analogue of an equidistribution theorem of D\'esarm\'enien and Wachs.

We present three different Type IIB AdS$_4$ Supergravity solutions, derived using the electrostatic-like problem formalism which preserves 8 Poincar\'{e} Supercharges. Two of these solutions correspond to the Abelian and non-Abelian T-duals of a Type IIA background, obtained from the dimensional reduction of 11D AdS$_4 \times S^7$ Supegravity. The third solution is a new background with some special properties. We compute the Page charges in each case, and provide brane set-up descriptions of the geometries. Also, we argue that the non-Abelian T-dual can be understood as a zoom-in of a more general background with a well defined holographic dual.

When polarized particles are accelerated in a synchrotron, the spin precession can be periodically driven by Fourier components of the electromagnetic fields through which the particles travel. This leads to resonant perturbations when the spin-precession frequency is close to a linear combination of the orbital frequencies. When such resonance conditions are crossed, partial depolarization or spin flip can occur. The amount of polarization that survives after resonance crossing is a function of the resonance strength and the crossing speed. This function is commonly called the Froissart-Stora formula. It is very useful for predicting the amount of polarization after an acceleration cycle of a synchrotron or for computing the required speed of the acceleration cycle to maintain a required amount of polarization. However, the resonance strength could in general only be computed for first-order resonances and for synchrotron sidebands. When Siberian Snakes adjust the spin tune to be 1/2, as is required for high energy accelerators, first-order resonances do not appear and higher-order resonances become dominant. Here we will introduce the strength of a higher-order spin-orbit resonance, and also present an efficient method of computing it. Several tracking examples will show that the so computed resonance strength can indeed be used in the Froissart-Stora formula. HERA-p is used for these examples which demonstrate that our results are very relevant for existing accelerators.

Inspired by a recent experiment [Phys. Rev. Letts. \textbf{122}, 253201(2019)] that an unprecedented quantum interference was observed in the way of Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) due to the coexisting resonant- and detuned-STIRAPs, we comprehensively study this effect for uncovering its robustness towards the external-field fluctuations of laser noise, imperfect resonance condition as well as the excited-state decaying. We verify that, an auxiliary dynamical phase accumulated in hold time caused by the quasi-dark state can sensitively manipulate the visibility and frequency of the interference fringe, representing a new hallmark to measure the hyperfine energy accurately. The robust stability of scheme comes from the intrinsic superiority embedded in STIRAP itself, which promises a remarkable preservation of the quantum interference quality in a practical implementation.

We summarize and expand known connections between the study of Dehn surgery on links and the study of trisections of closed, smooth 4-manifolds. In addition, we describe how the potential counterexamples to the Generalized Property R Conjecture given by Gompf, Scharlemann, and Thompson yield genus four trisections of the standard four-sphere that are unlikely to be standard. Finally, we give an analog of the Casson- Gordon Rectangle Condition for trisections that can be used to obstruct reducibility of a given trisection.

We report a resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study of charge excitations in the quasi-one-dimensional Mott insulator SrCuO2. We observe a continuum of low-energy excitations, in which a highly dispersive feature with a large sinusoidal dispersion (~1.1 eV) resides. We have also measured the optical conductivity, and studied the dynamic response of the extended Hubbard model with realistic parameters, using a dynamical density-matrix renormalization group method. In contrast to earlier work, we do not find a long-lived exciton, but rather these results suggest that the excitation spectrum comprises a holon-antiholon continuum together with a broad resonance.

The irreducible representations of full support in the rational Cherednik category $\mathcal{O}_c(W)$ attached to a Coxeter group $W$ are in bijection with the irreducible representations of an associated Iwahori-Hecke algebra. Recent work has shown that the irreducible representations in $\mathcal{O}_c(W)$ of arbitrary given support are similarly governed by certain generalized Hecke algebras. In this paper we compute the parameters for these generalized Hecke algebras in the remaining previously unknown cases, corresponding to the parabolic subgroup $B_n \times S_k$ in $B_{n+k}$ for $k \geq 2$ and $n \geq 0$.

Results of processing experimental data on charm production in hadron-hadron interactions are presented. The analysis is carried out within the frame of phenomenological model of diffraction production and quark statistics based on additive quark model (AQM). In low energy region sqrt s = 20 - 40GeV, the cross sections si_ {pN to c bar cX} (s), si_ {pi N to c bar cX} (s) are fitted by logarithmic function with the parameters connected by relationship of AQM. At collider energies 200, 540, 900, 1800 GeV, the values of si_{bar pp to c bar cX} (s) were obtained by a quark statistics method from the data on diffraction dissociation. It is established, that logarithmic function with universal numerical parameters describes the whole set of low-energy and high-energy data with high accuracy. The expected values of cross sections are si_{pp to c bar cX} = 250 pm 40 mu b and 355 pm 57 mu b at TEVATRON energy sqrt {s} = 1.96 TeV and LHC energy sqrt {s} = 14 TeV accordingly. Opportunities of use of the obtained results for calibration of a flux of "prompt" muons in high-energy component of cosmic rays are discussed.

In this article, we prove the first quantitative uniform in time propagation of chaos for a class of systems of particles in singular repulsive interaction in dimension one that contains the Dyson Brownian motion. We start by establishing existence and uniqueness for the Riesz gases, before proving propagation of chaos with an original approach to the problem, namely coupling with a Cauchy sequence type argument. We also give a general argument to turn a result of weak propagation of chaos into a strong and uniform in time result using the long time behavior and some bounds on moments, in particular enabling us to get a uniform in time version of the result of C\'epa-L\'epingle.

Scientists often use observational time series data to study complex natural processes, but regression analyses often assume simplistic dynamics. Recent advances in deep learning have yielded startling improvements to the performance of models of complex processes, but deep learning is generally not used for scientific analysis. Here we show that deep learning can be used to analyze complex processes, providing flexible function approximation while preserving interpretability. Our approach relaxes standard simplifying assumptions (e.g., linearity, stationarity, and homoscedasticity) that are implausible for many natural systems and may critically affect the interpretation of data. We evaluate our model on incremental human language processing, a domain with complex continuous dynamics. We demonstrate substantial improvements on behavioral and neuroimaging data, and we show that our model enables discovery of novel patterns in exploratory analyses, controls for diverse confounds in confirmatory analyses, and opens up research questions that are otherwise hard to study.

DiffBP: Generative Diffusion of 3D Molecules for Target Protein Binding
13 pages

q-bio.BM cs.LG

Generating molecules that bind to specific proteins is an important but challenging task in drug discovery. Previous works usually generate atoms in an auto-regressive way, where element types and 3D coordinates of atoms are generated one by one. However, in real-world molecular systems, the interactions among atoms in an entire molecule are global, leading to the energy function pair-coupled among atoms. With such energy-based consideration, the modeling of probability should be based on joint distributions, rather than sequentially conditional ones. Thus, the unnatural sequentially auto-regressive modeling of molecule generation is likely to violate the physical rules, thus resulting in poor properties of the generated molecules. In this work, a generative diffusion model for molecular 3D structures based on target proteins as contextual constraints is established, at a full-atom level in a non-autoregressive way. Given a designated 3D protein binding site, our model learns the generative process that denoises both element types and 3D coordinates of an entire molecule, with an equivariant network. Experimentally, the proposed method shows competitive performance compared with prevailing works in terms of high affinity with proteins and appropriate molecule sizes as well as other drug properties such as drug-likeness of the generated molecules.

Towards Improving the Consistency, Efficiency, and Flexibility of Differentiable Neural Architecture Search

Most differentiable neural architecture search methods construct a super-net for search and derive a target-net as its sub-graph for evaluation. There exists a significant gap between the architectures in search and evaluation. As a result, current methods suffer from an inconsistent, inefficient, and inflexible search process. In this paper, we introduce EnTranNAS that is composed of Engine-cells and Transit-cells. The Engine-cell is differentiable for architecture search, while the Transit-cell only transits a sub-graph by architecture derivation. Consequently, the gap between the architectures in search and evaluation is significantly reduced. Our method also spares much memory and computation cost, which speeds up the search process. A feature sharing strategy is introduced for more balanced optimization and more efficient search. Furthermore, we develop an architecture derivation method to replace the traditional one that is based on a hand-crafted rule. Our method enables differentiable sparsification, and keeps the derived architecture equivalent to that of Engine-cell, which further improves the consistency between search and evaluation. Besides, it supports the search for topology where a node can be connected to prior nodes with any number of connections, so that the searched architectures could be more flexible. For experiments on CIFAR-10, our search on the standard space requires only 0.06 GPU-day. We further have an error rate of 2.22% with 0.07 GPU-day for the search on an extended space. We can also directly perform the search on ImageNet with topology learnable and achieve a top-1 error rate of 23.8% in 2.1 GPU-day.

We introduce an adaptive regularization approach. In contrast to conventional Tikhonov regularization, which specifies a fixed regularization operator, we estimate it simultaneously with parameters. From a Bayesian perspective we estimate the prior distribution on parameters assuming that it is close to some given model distribution. We constrain the prior distribution to be a Gauss-Markov random field (GMRF), which allows us to solve for the prior distribution analytically and provides a fast optimization algorithm. We apply our approach to non-rigid image registration to estimate the spatial transformation between two images. Our evaluation shows that the adaptive regularization approach significantly outperforms standard variational methods.

We argue that diffractive DIS, dominated by soft interactions, is probably the unique process which allows us to observe unitarity effects in DIS. Guided by a close analogy between the diffractive dissociation of a highly virtual photon and the elastic scattering of hadrons we propose a specific procedure to analyse the data in order to detect the onset of the unitarity limit. Lacking appropriate data, we use the predictions of a realistic model as an input for our analysis, to demonstrate that the output unitarity signal is sufficiently large to be detectable.

The current version of the Fermi Large Area Telescope data (P8R2) has been publicly available since June 2015, with the caveat that the residual background of all event classes, except ULTRACLEANVETO, was not fully isotropic: it was enhanced by a factor ~2 at 1-3 GeV within ~20 deg of the Ecliptic compared to the poles. By investigating the residual background using data only, we were able to find two sources of residual background: one due to non-interacting heavy ions and one due to cosmic-ray electrons leaking through the ribbons of the Anti-Coincidence Detector, the latter source being responsible for the background anisotropy. A set of simple cuts allows us to reject these events while losing less than 1% of the SOURCE class acceptance. This new selection has been used to produce a new version of the LAT data (P8R3).

Does the End Justify the Means? On the Moral Justification of Fairness-Aware Machine Learning

Fairness-aware machine learning (fair-ml) techniques are algorithmic interventions designed to ensure that individuals who are affected by the predictions of a machine learning model are treated fairly, typically measured in terms of a quantitative fairness metric. Despite the multitude of fairness metrics and fair-ml algorithms, there is still little guidance on the suitability of different approaches in practice. In this paper, we present a framework for moral reasoning about the justification of fairness metrics and explore the moral implications of the use of fair-ml algorithms that optimize for them. In particular, we argue that whether a distribution of outcomes is fair, depends not only on the cause of inequalities but also on what moral claims decision subjects have to receive a particular benefit or avoid a burden. We use our framework to analyze the suitability of two fairness metrics under different circumstances. Subsequently, we explore moral arguments that support or reject the use of the fair-ml algorithm introduced by Hardt et al. (2016). We argue that under very specific circumstances, particular metrics correspond to a fair distribution of burdens and benefits. However, we also illustrate that enforcing a fairness metric by means of a fair-ml algorithm may not result in the fair distribution of outcomes and can have several undesirable side effects. We end with a call for a more holistic evaluation of fair-ml algorithms, beyond their direct optimization objectives.

The Vector Spectromagnetograph (VSM) instrument has been recording photospheric and chromospheric magnetograms daily since August 2003. Full-disk photospheric vector magnetograms are observed at least weekly and, since November 2006, area-scans of active regions daily. Quick-look vector magnetic images, plus X3D and FITS formated files, are now publicly available daily. In the near future, Milne-Eddington inversion parameter data will also be available and a typical observing day will include three full-disk photospheric vector magnetograms. Besides full-disk observations, the VSM is capable of high temporal cadence area-scans of both the photosphere and chromosphere. Carrington rotation and daily synoptic maps are also available from the photospheric magnetograms and coronal hole estimate images.

We report on the creation and characterization of the luminescence properties of high-purity diamond substrates upon F ion implantation and subsequent thermal annealing. Their room-temperature photoluminescence emission consists of a weak emission line at 558 nm and of intense bands in the 600 - 750 nm spectral range. Characterization at liquid He temperature reveals the presence of a structured set of lines in the 600 - 670 nm spectral range. We discuss the dependence of the emission properties of F-related optical centers on different experimental parameters such as the operating temperature and the excitation wavelength. The correlation of the emission intensity with F implantation fluence, and the exclusive observation of the afore-mentioned spectral features in F-implanted and annealed samples provides a strong indication that the observed emission features are related to a stable F-containing defective complex in the diamond lattice.

In 3-dimensional hyperbolic geometry, the classical Schlafli formula expresses the variation of the volume of a hyperbolic polyhedron in terms of the length of its edges and of the variation of its dihedral angles. We prove a similar formula for the variation of the volume of the convex core of a geometrically finite hyperbolic 3--manifold M, as we vary the hyperbolic metric of M. In this case, the pleating locus of the boundary of the convex core is not constant any more, but we showed in an earlier paper that the variation of the bending of the boundary of the convex core is described by a geodesic lamination with a certain transverse distribution. We prove that the variation of the volume of the convex core is then equal to 1/2 the length of this transverse distribution.

Several computer algorithms for recognition of visible human emotions are compared at the web camera scenario using CNN/MMOD face detector. The recognition refers to four face expressions: smile, surprise, anger, and neutral. At the feature extraction stage, the following three concepts of face description are confronted: (a) static 2D face geometry represented by its 68 characteristic landmarks (FP68); (b) dynamic 3D geometry defined by motion parameters for eight distinguished face parts (denoted as AU8) of personalized Candide-3 model; (c) static 2D visual description as 2D array of gray scale pixels (known as facial raw image). At the classification stage, the performance of two major models are analyzed: (a) support vector machine (SVM) with kernel options; (b) convolutional neural network (CNN) with variety of relevant tensor processing layers and blocks of them. The models are trained for frontal views of human faces while they are tested for arbitrary head poses. For geometric features, the success rate (accuracy) indicate nearly triple increase of performance of CNN with respect to SVM classifiers. For raw images, CNN outperforms in accuracy its best geometric counterpart (AU/CNN) by about 30 percent while the best SVM solutions are inferior nearly four times. For F-score the high advantage of raw/CNN over geometric/CNN and geometric/SVM is observed, as well. We conclude that contrary to CNN based emotion classifiers, the generalization capability wrt human head pose is for SVM based emotion classifiers poor.

Direct bandgap bulk materials are very important for the optical applications. It is therefore important to predict new materials with the desired properties. In the present work, density functional theory is applied to study different physical properties of X$_2$MgZ$_4$($X=$ Sc, Y; $Z=$ S, Se) spinel compounds. Generalized gradient approximation is used to analyze the structural and elastic parameters while modified Becke Johnson exchange potential is applied to calculate electric band profiles and optical properties. All the studied compounds are stable in the cubic structure. Also the energy bandgap is of direct nature. Therefore these compounds can find useful applications in the optoelectrics devices. Optical properties of the compounds are studied in terms of dielectric function, refractive index, extinction coefficient, optical conductivity and reflectivity. The transport parameters like electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity are also evaluated.

One possible way of risk management for an insurance company is to develop an early and appropriate alarm system before the possible ruin. The ruin is defined through the status of the aggregate risk process, which in turn is determined by premium accumulation as well as claim settlement outgo for the insurance company. The main purpose of this work is to design an effective alarm system, i.e. to define alarm times and to recommend augmentation of capital of suitable magnitude at those points to prevent or reduce the chance of ruin. To draw a fair measure of effectiveness of alarm system, comparison is drawn between an alarm system, with capital being added at the sound of every alarm, and the corresponding system without any alarm, but an equivalently higher initial capital. Analytical results are obtained in general setup and this is backed up by simulated performances with various types of loss severity distributions. This provides a strategy for suitably spreading out the capital and yet addressing survivability concerns at satisfactory level.

For $g \geq 2$ and $h \geq 3$, we give small improvements on the maximum size of a $B_h[g]$-set contained in the interval $\{1,2, \dots , N \}$. In particular, we show that a $B_3[g]$-set in $\{1,2, \dots , N \}$ has at most $(14.3 g N)^{1/3}$ elements. The previously best known bound was $(16 gN)^{1/3}$ proved by Cilleruelo, Ruzsa, and Trujillo. We also introduce a related optimization problem that may be of independent interest.

Gas inflow into galaxies should affect the star formation and hence the evolution of galaxies across cosmic time. In this work, we use TNG100 of the IllustrisTNG simulations to understand the role of environment on gas inflow rates in massive galaxies at z >= 2. We divide our galaxies (log(M*/Msolar )>= 10.5) into cluster (log Mhalo/Msolar >= 13) and field (log Mhalo/Msolar < 13) galaxies at z = 2 and further divide into centrals and satellites. We track their gas inflow rates from z = 6 to 2 and find that the total gas inflow rates of satellite galaxies rapidly decline after their infall into cluster halos and as they reach the cluster center. At z = 2, the gas inflow rate of cluster satellite galaxies is correlated with the cluster-centric radii and not the host halo mass. In contrast, the gas inflow rate in centrals is strongly correlated with the host halo mass at z >= 2. Our study indicates that between redshifts 6 to 2, the gas that normally is accreted by the satellite galaxies is redirected to the center of the cluster halo as inflows to the cluster centrals and forming the intra-cluster medium. Our analysis suggest that the inequality of gas accretion between massive satellite and central galaxies is responsible for the starvation of cluster satellite galaxies that evolve into the massive quenched cluster galaxies observed at z<0.5.

We employ a number of statistical measures to characterize neural discharge activity in cat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and in their target lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) neurons under various stimulus conditions, and we develop a new measure to examine correlations in fractal activity between spike-train pairs. In the absence of stimulation (i.e., in the dark), RGC and LGN discharges exhibit similar properties. The presentation of a constant, uniform luminance to the eye reduces the fractal fluctuations in the RGC maintained discharge but enhances them in the target LGN discharge, so that neural activity in the pair no longer mirror each other. A drifting-grating stimulus yields RGC and LGN driven spike trains similar in character to those observed in the maintained discharge, with two notable distinctions: action potentials are reorganized along the time axis so that they occur only during certain phases of the stimulus waveform, and fractal activity is suppressed. Under both uniform-luminance and drifting-grating stimulus conditions (but not in the dark), the discharges of pairs of LGN cells are highly correlated over long time scales; in contrast discharges of RGCs are nearly uncorrelated with each other. This indicates that action-potential activity at the LGN is subject to a common fractal modulation to which the RGCs are not subjected.

Imaging dynamics of cellular morphogenesis with high spatial-temporal resolution in 3D is challenging, due to the low spatial resolution along the optical axis and photo-toxicity. However, some cellular structures are planar and hence 2D imaging should be sufficient, provided that the structure of interest can be oriented with respect to the optical axis of the microscope. Here, we report a 3D microfabrication method which positions and orients cell divisions very close to the microscope coverglass. We use this approach to study cytokinesis in fission yeasts and polarization to lumen formation in mammalian epithelial cells. We show that this method improves spatial resolution on range of common microscopies, including super-resolution STED. Altogether, this method could shed new lights on self-organization phenomena in single cells and 3D cell culture systems.

Tellurium allows attaining heavy n-type doping levels in GaAs, which is suited to achieve very low contact resistivities in solar cells. Besides, it modifies the energy bandgap of MOVPE-grown GaInP by reducing the group-III sublattice ordering and presents a strong memory effect which induces residual n-type doping in subsequent layers, potentially detrimental to the performance of the solar cell. In this work, we present an inverted rear-heterojunction GaInP solar cell that employs a thick Te-doped GaInP layer as absorber, with a doping profile obtained exclusively by controlling the memory effect of Te coming from the preceding growth of a heavily doped GaAs contact layer. In this way, GaInP is partially disordered with the use of no additional surfactant, leading to an increase in the solar cell bandgap of around 35 meV as compared to traditional samples doped with silicon. In the proof-of-concept experimental devices developed so far, the use of a rear-heterojunction configuration and the bandgap increase results in a global open-circuit voltage enhancement of 109 mV. The photocurrent decreases by 1.32 mA/cm2, mostly due to the bandgap blue-shift, with about 0.35 mA/cm2 attributable to lower carrier collection efficiencies. These preliminary results are discussed by analyzing the I-V curve parameters and quantum efficiencies of a Te-doped rear-heterojunction, a Si-doped rear-heterojunction and a Si-doped front-junction solar cell. An additional advantage is that the emitter sheet resistance is reduced from 551 to 147 ohms/sq, which offers potential for higher efficiencies through lower front grid shadowing factors, as demonstrated with the concentrator measurements presented.

The first part of the paper provides new characterizations of the normal cone to the effective domain of the supremum of an arbitrary family of convex functions. These results are applied in the second part to give new formulas for the subdifferential of the supremum function, which use both the active and nonactive functions at the reference point. Only the data functions are involved in these characterizations, the active ones from one side, together with the nonactive functions multiplied by some appropriate parameters. In contrast with previous works in the literature, the main feature of our subdifferential characterization is that the normal cone to the effective domain of the supremum (or to finite-dimensional sections of this domain) does not appear. A new type of optimality conditions for convex optimization is established at the end of the paper.

Hamiltonian Dynamics for Real-World Shape Interpolation

We revisit the classical problem of 3D shape interpolation and propose a novel, physically plausible approach based on Hamiltonian dynamics. While most prior work focuses on synthetic input shapes, our formulation is designed to be applicable to real-world scans with imperfect input correspondences and various types of noise. To that end, we use recent progress on dynamic thin shell simulation and divergence-free shape deformation and combine them to address the inverse problem of finding a plausible intermediate sequence for two input shapes. In comparison to prior work that mainly focuses on small distortion of consecutive frames, we explicitly model volume preservation and momentum conservation, as well as an anisotropic local distortion model. We argue that, in order to get a robust interpolation for imperfect inputs, we need to model the input noise explicitly which results in an alignment based formulation. Finally, we show a qualitative and quantitative improvement over prior work on a broad range of synthetic and scanned data. Besides being more robust to noisy inputs, our method yields exactly volume preserving intermediate shapes, avoids self-intersections and is scalable to high resolution scans.

Optical microcavities and metallic nanostructures have been shown to significantly modulate the dynamics and spectroscopic response of molecular systems. We present a study of the nonlinear optics of a model consisting of $N$ anharmonic multilevel systems (e.g., Morse oscillators) undergoing collective strong coupling with a resonant infrared microcavity. We find that, under experimentally accessible conditions, molecular systems in microcavities may have nonlinear phenomena significantly intensified due to the high quality of polariton resonances and the enhanced microcavity electromagnetic energy density relative to free space. Particularly large enhancement of multiphoton absorption happens when multipolariton states are resonant with bare molecule multiphoton transitions. In particular, our model predicts two-photon absorption cross section enhancements by several orders of magnitude relative to free space when the Rabi splitting $\Omega_R$ is approximately equal to the molecular anharmonic shift $2\Delta$. Our results provide rough upper bounds to resonant nonlinear response enhancement factors as relaxation to dark states is treated phenomenologically. Notably, ensembles of two-level systems undergoing strong coupling with a cavity (described by the Tavis-Cummings model) show no such optical nonlinearity enhancements, highlighting the rich phenomenology afforded by multilevel anharmonic systems. Similar conclusions are expected to hold for excitonic systems that share features with our model (e.g., molecular dyes with accessible S_0 -> S_1 -> S_2 transitions) and strongly interact with a UV-visible cavity.

A popular approach in combinatorial optimization is to model problems as integer linear programs. Ideally, the relaxed linear program would have only integer solutions, which happens for instance when the constraint matrix is totally unimodular. Still, sometimes it is possible to build an integer solution with the same cost from the fractional solution. Examples are two scheduling problems and the single disk prefetching/caching problem. We show that problems such as the three previously mentioned can be separated into two subproblems: (1) finding an optimal feasible set of slots, and (2) assigning the jobs or pages to the slots. It is straigthforward to show that the latter can be solved greedily. We are able to solve the former with a totally unimodular linear program, from which we obtain simple combinatorial algorithms with improved worst case running time.

An overview of the author's papers on the new approach to the Brownian coagulation theory and its generalization to the diffusion-limited reaction rate theory is presented. The traditional diffusion approach of the Smoluchowski theory for coagulation of colloids is critically analyzed and shown to be valid only in the particular case of coalescence of small particles with large ones. It is shown that, owing to rapid diffusion mixing, coalescence of comparable size particles occurs in the kinetic regime, realized under condition of homogeneous spatial distribution of particles, in the two modes, continuum and free molecular. Transition from the continuum to the free molecular mode can be described by the interpolation expression derived within the new analytical approach with fitting parameters that can be specified numerically, avoiding semi-empirical assumptions of the traditional models. A similar restriction arises in the traditional approach to the diffusion-limited reaction rate theory, based on generalization of the Smoluchowski theory for coagulation of colloids. In particular, it is shown that the traditional approach is applicable only to the special case of reactions with a large reaction radius, and becomes inappropriate to calculation of the reaction rate in the case of a relatively small reaction radius. In the latter, more general case particles collisions occur mainly in the kinetic regime (rather than in the diffusion one) characterized by homogeneous (at random) spatial distribution of particles. The calculated reaction rate for a small reaction radius in 3-d formally coincides with the expression derived in the traditional approach for reactions with a large reaction radius, however, notably deviates at large times from the traditional result in the plane (2-d) geometry, that has wide applications also in the membrane biology as well as in some other important areas.

Recently, Hawking radiation of the black hole has been studied using the tunnel effect method. It is found that the radiation spectrum of the black hole is not a strictly pure thermal spectrum. How does the departure from pure thermal spectrum affect the entropy? This is a very interesting problem. In this paper, we calculate the partition function by energy spectrum obtained from tunnel effect. Using the partition function, we compute the black hole entropy and derive the expression of the black hole entropy after considering the radiation. And we derive the entropy of charged black hole. In our calculation, we consider not only the correction to the black hole entropy due to fluctuation of energy but also the effect of the change of the black hole charges on entropy. There is no other hypothesis. Our result is more reasonable.According to the fact that the black hole entropy is not divergent, we obtain the lower limit of Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black hole energy. That is, the least energy of Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black hole, which satisfies the stationary condition in thermodynamics.

A spatially correlated broadcast setting with M antennas at the base station and M users (each with a single antenna) is considered. We assume that the users have perfect channel information about their links and the base station has only statistical information about each user's link. The base station employs a linear beamforming strategy with one spatial eigen-mode allocated to each user. The goal of this work is to understand the structure of the beamforming vectors that maximize the ergodic sum-rate achieved by treating interference as noise. In the M = 2 case, we first fix the beamforming vectors and compute the ergodic sum-rate in closed-form as a function of the channel statistics. We then show that the optimal beamforming vectors are the dominant generalized eigenvectors of the covariance matrices of the two links. It is difficult to obtain intuition on the structure of the optimal beamforming vectors for M > 2 due to the complicated nature of the sum-rate expression. Nevertheless, in the case of asymptotic M, we show that the optimal beamforming vectors have to satisfy a set of fixed-point equations.

The formation of the Milky Way is discussed within the context of the cold dark matter scenario. Several problems arise which can be solved if the Galaxy experienced an early phase of gas heating and decoupling from the dark matter substructure. This model combines the Eggen, Lynden-Bell and Sandage picture of a monolithic protogalactic collapses with the Searle and Zinn picture of an early merging phase of substructures into one consistent scenario of Galactic formation.

In the last few years many exoplanets in the habitable zone (HZ) of M-dwarfs have been discovered, but the X-ray/UV activity of cool stars is very different from that of our Sun. The high-energy radiation environment influences the habitability, plays a crucial role for abiogenesis, and impacts planetary atmospheres. LHS 1140b is a super-Earth-size planet orbiting in the HZ of LHS 1140, an M4.5 dwarf at ~15 parsecs. We present the results of a Swift X-ray/UV observing campaign. We characterize for the first time the X-ray/UV radiation environment of LHS 1140b. We measure the variability of the near ultraviolet (NUV) flux and estimate the far ultraviolet (FUV) flux with a correlation between FUV and NUV flux of a sample of low-mass stars in the GALEX archive. We highlight the presence of a dominating X-ray source close to the J2000 coordinates of LHS 1140, characterize its spectrum, and derive an X-ray flux upper limit for LHS 1140. We find that this contaminant source could have influenced the previously estimated spectral energy distribution. No significant variation of the NUV flux of LHS 1140 is found over 3 months, and we do not observe any flare during the 38 ks on the target. LHS 1140 is in the 25th percentile of least variable M4-M5 dwarfs of the GALEX sample. Analyzing the UV flux experienced by the HZ planet LHS 1140b, we find that outside the atmosphere it receives a NUV flux <2% with respect to that of the present-day Earth, while the FUV/NUV ratio is ~100-200 times higher. This represents a lower limit to the true FUV/NUV ratio since the GALEX FUV band does not include Lyman-alpha, which dominates the FUV output of low-mass stars. This is a warning for future searches for biomarkers, which must take into account this high ratio. The relatively low level and stability of UV flux experienced by LHS 1140b should be favorable for its present-day habitability.

We analyze the Mott transition in multi-band Hubbard models with the inclusion of multiplet exchange splittings as it arises in infinite dimensions by using the generalized Gutzwiller wave-function introduced by B\"unemann, Weber and Gebhard [Phys. Rev. B 57, 6896 (1998)]. We also present an extension of that variational wave-function to account for broken-symmetry phases, which still allows an exact analytical treatment. Our analysis reveals some drawbacks of the variational wave-function, which, in our opinion, imply that Gutzwiller-type of wave-functions do not properly capture quasi-particle properties close to a Mott transition.

We study the electroweak phase transition in the alignment limit of the CP-conserving two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) of Type I and Type II. The effective potential is evaluated at one-loop, where the thermal potential includes Daisy corrections and is reliably approximated by means of a sum of Bessel functions. Both 1-stage and 2-stage electroweak phase transitions are shown to be possible, depending on the pattern of the vacuum development as the Universe cools down. For the 1-stage case focused on in this paper, we analyze the properties of phase transition and discover that the field value of the electroweak symmetry breaking vacuum at the critical temperature at which the first order phase transition occurs is largely correlated with the vacuum depth of the 1-loop potential at zero temperature. We demonstrate that a strong first order electroweak phase transition (SFOEWPT) in the 2HDM is achievable and establish benchmark scenarios leading to different testable signatures at colliders. In addition, we verify that an enhanced triple Higgs coupling (including loop corrections) is a typical feature of the SFOPT driven by the additional doublet. As a result, SFOEWPT might be able to be probed at the LHC and future lepton colliders through Higgs pair production.

In this paper, we study a semilinear system involving the curl operator in a bounded and convex domain in $R^3$, which comes from the steady-state approximation for Bean critical-state model for type-II superconductors. We show the existence and the $L^{\infty}$ estimate for weak solutions to this system.

Self-gravitating SU(2) Higgs magnetic monopoles exist up to a critical value of the ratio of the vector meson mass to the Planck mass, which depends on the Higgs boson mass. At the critical value a critical solution with a degenerate horizon is reached. As pointed out by Lue and Weinberg, there are two types of critical solutions, with a transition at an intermediate Higgs boson mass. Here we investigate this transition for black holes, and reconsider it for the case of gravitating monopoles.

The transport coefficient of shear viscosity is studied for a hadron matter through microscopic transport model, the Ultra--relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD), using the Green--Kubo formulas. Molecular--dynamical simulations are performed for a system of light mesons in a box with periodic boundary conditions. Starting from an initial state composed of $\pi, \eta ,\omega ,\rho ,\phi$ with a uniform phase--space distribution, the evolution takes place through elastic collisions, production and annihilation. The system approaches a stationary state of mesons and their resonances, which is characterized by common temperature. After equilibration, thermodynamic quantities such as the energy density, particle density, and pressure are calculated. From such an equilibrated state the shear viscosity coefficient is calculated from the fluctuations of stress tensor around equilibrium using Green--Kubo relations. We do our simulations here at zero net baryon density so that the equilibration times depend on the energy density. We do not include hadron strings as degrees of freedom so as to maintain detailed balance. Hence we do not get the saturation of temperature but this leads to longer equilibration times.

This is the second part of a work devoted to the study of linear Mahler systems in several variables from the perspective of transcendence and algebraic independence. From the lifting theorem obtained in the first part, we first derive a general result, showing that Mahler functions in several variables, associated with transformations having multiplicatively dependent spectral radii, take algebraic independent values at algebraic points provided that these points are sufficiently independent. Then, we focus on applications of this result and of the two main results of Part I of this work. Our main application concerns problems about the representation of natural and real numbers in integer bases involving automata theory. These can be translated in terms of algebraic relations over $\overline{\mathbb Q}$ between values of Mahler functions in one variable. We also apply our results to the algebraic independence of Mahler functions and their specializations, and to the study of the values of Hecke-Mahler series.

Minimum Complexity Pursuit for Universal Compressed Sensing

The nascent field of compressed sensing is founded on the fact that high-dimensional signals with "simple structure" can be recovered accurately from just a small number of randomized samples. Several specific kinds of structures have been explored in the literature, from sparsity and group sparsity to low-rankness. However, two fundamental questions have been left unanswered, namely: What are the general abstract meanings of "structure" and "simplicity"? And do there exist universal algorithms for recovering such simple structured objects from fewer samples than their ambient dimension? In this paper, we address these two questions. Using algorithmic information theory tools such as the Kolmogorov complexity, we provide a unified definition of structure and simplicity. Leveraging this new definition, we develop and analyze an abstract algorithm for signal recovery motivated by Occam's Razor.Minimum complexity pursuit (MCP) requires just O(3\kappa) randomized samples to recover a signal of complexity \kappa and ambient dimension n. We also discuss the performance of MCP in the presence of measurement noise and with approximately simple signals.

The recent detection of the 21-cm absorption signal by the EDGES collaboration has been widely used to constrain the basic properties of dark matter particles. However, extracting the parameters of the 21-cm absorption signal relies on a chosen parametrization of the foreground radio emission. Recently, the new parametrizations of the foreground and systematics have been proposed, showing significant deviations of the 21-cm signal parameters from those assumed by the original EDGES paper. In this paper, we consider this new uncertainty, comparing the observed signal with the predictions of several dark matter models, including the widely used cold dark matter model, 1-3 keV warm dark matter models, and 7 keV sterile neutrino (SN7) model, capable of producing the reported 3.5 keV line. We show that all these dark matter models cannot be statistically distinguished using the available EDGES data.

We study cosmological models with anisotropy in expansion rates in the context of the recent observations predicting an accelerating universe. In the absence of any anisotropy in the cosmic fluid, it is shown that the role of skewness in directional Hubble rates is crucial in deciding the behavior of the model. We find that incorporation of skewness leads to a more evolving effective equation of state parameter.
