Barrow, and Barrow and collaborators, have put forward theoretical models with variable fundamental constants including JBD theories. The experimental evidence for an accelerating Universe points out to a deceleration parameter approximately equal to -- 1. On the other hand, there is evidence for a time varying fine structure constant alpha . We have included the above results in a JBD cosmological model modified by J.D. Barrow by including a time varying speed of light, thus, finding an exponential inflationary phase with variables G, alpha and c . This means that the primordial value of alpha was exponentially larger than its present value. Planck`s time may not be then approximately 10 to the power - 43 s ; the same may happen to other Planck`s quantities. We found an exponentially time-decaying Cosmological term.

There exist opportunities for Multivariate Linear Regression (MLR) in the prediction of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) in waste water, using the diverse water quality parameters as the input variables. The goal of this work is to examine the capability of MLR in prediction of BOD in waste water through four input variables: Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Nitrogen, Fecal Coliform and Total Coliform. The four input variables have higher correlation strength to BOD out of the seven parameters examined for the strength of correlation. Machine Learning (ML) was done with both 80% and 90% of the data as the training set and 20% and 10% as the test set respectively. MLR performance was evaluated through the coefficient of correlation (r), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and the percentage accuracy in prediction of BOD. The performance indices for the input variables of Dissolved Oxygen, Nitrogen, Fecal Coliform and Total Coliform in prediction of BOD are: RMSE=6.77mg/L, r=0.60 and accuracy 70.3% for training dataset of 80% and RMSE=6.74mg/L, r=0.60 and accuracy of 87.5% for training set of 90% of the dataset. It was found that increasing the percentage of the training set above 80% of the dataset improved the accuracy of the model only but did not have a significant impact on the prediction capacity of the model. The results showed that MLR model could be successfully employed in the estimation of BOD in waste water using appropriately selected input parameters.

Few-shot learning (FSL) is one of the key future steps in machine learning and has raised a lot of attention. However, in contrast to the rapid development in other domains, such as Computer Vision, the progress of FSL in Nature Language Processing (NLP) is much slower. One of the key reasons for this is the lacking of public benchmarks. NLP FSL researches always report new results on their own constructed few-shot datasets, which is pretty inefficient in results comparison and thus impedes cumulative progress. In this paper, we present FewJoint, a novel Few-Shot Learning benchmark for NLP. Different from most NLP FSL research that only focus on simple N-classification problems, our benchmark introduces few-shot joint dialogue language understanding, which additionally covers the structure prediction and multi-task reliance problems. This allows our benchmark to reflect the real-word NLP complexity beyond simple N-classification. Our benchmark is used in the few-shot learning contest of SMP2020-ECDT task-1. We also provide a compatible FSL platform to ease experiment set-up.

News recommendation aims to match news with personalized user interest. Existing methods for news recommendation usually model user interest from historical clicked news without the consideration of candidate news. However, each user usually has multiple interests, and it is difficult for these methods to accurately match a candidate news with a specific user interest. In this paper, we present a candidate-aware user modeling method for personalized news recommendation, which can incorporate candidate news into user modeling for better matching between candidate news and user interest. We propose a candidate-aware self-attention network that uses candidate news as clue to model candidate-aware global user interest. In addition, we propose a candidate-aware CNN network to incorporate candidate news into local behavior context modeling and learn candidate-aware short-term user interest. Besides, we use a candidate-aware attention network to aggregate previously clicked news weighted by their relevance with candidate news to build candidate-aware user representation. Experiments on real-world datasets show the effectiveness of our method in improving news recommendation performance.

Following up on the success of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) decomposition and the Sobol indices (SI) for global sensitivity analysis, various related quantities of interest have been defined in the literature including the effective and mean dimensions, the dimension distribution, and the Shapley values. Such metrics combine up to exponential numbers of SI in different ways and can be of great aid in uncertainty quantification and model interpretation tasks, but are computationally challenging. We focus on surrogate based sensitivity analysis for independently distributed variables, namely via the tensor train (TT) decomposition. This format permits flexible and scalable surrogate modeling and can efficiently extract all SI at once in a compressed TT representation of their own. Based on this, we contribute a range of novel algorithms that compute more advanced sensitivity metrics by selecting and aggregating certain subsets of SI in the tensor compressed domain. Drawing on an interpretation of the TT model in terms of deterministic finite automata, we are able to construct explicit auxiliary TT tensors that encode exactly all necessary index selection masks. Having both the SI and the masks in the TT format allows efficient computation of all aforementioned metrics, as we demonstrate in a number of example models.

The phenomenology of the neutral scalar bosons in the compact 341 model is discussed. We show that the predictions of this model are fairly good and compatible with the experimental data by calculating the signal strength of $h_1$ for the channels $b\bar{b}$, W$W^{*}$, Z$Z^{*}$, $\tau\bar{\tau}$ and $\gamma\gamma$. Moreover, we use the branching ratios to search for the heavy neutral scalar bosons $h_2$ and $h_3$ where we take into account the theoretical constraints to precise the allowed ranges for the fundamental parameters of the scalar potential.

In soccer game analysis, the widespread availability of play-by-play and tracking data has made it possible to test mathematical models that have been discussed mainly theoretically. One of the essential models in soccer game analysis is a motion model that predicts the arrival point of a player in $ t $ s. Although many space evaluation and pass prediction methods rely on motion models, the validity of each has not been fully clarified. This study focuses on the motion model proposed by Fujimura and Sugihara (Fujimura-Sugihara model) under sprint conditions based on the equation of motion. A previous study indicated that the Fujimura-Sugihara model is ineffective for soccer games because it generates a circular arrival region. This study aims to examine the validity of the Fujimura-Sugihara model using soccer tracking data. Specifically, we quantitatively compare the arrival regions of players between the model and real data. We show that the boundary of the player's arrival region is circular rather than elliptical, which is consistent with the model. We also show that the initial speed dependence of the arrival region satisfies the solution of the model. Furthermore, we propose a method for estimating valid kinetic parameters in the model directly from tracking data and discuss the limitations of the model for soccer games based on the estimated parameters.

We generalize the first law of black hole mechanics to the rotating, charged C-metric and to the Ernst metric, both of which have the charged C-metric as a special case. All of these metrics are (3+1)-dimensional, have vanishing cosmological constant, and physically describe a pair of black holes pulled apart to null infinity by some external force. Our first laws are global in the sense of applying to an entire patch of spacetime, as opposed to a neighborhood of the black hole. They are formulated with respect to "boost time", whose primacy is motivated by the celestial holographic approach to scattering amplitudes.

Fluid approximations have seen great success in approximating the macro-scale behaviour of Markov systems with a large number of discrete states. However, these methods rely on the continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) having a particular population structure which suggests a natural continuous state-space endowed with a dynamics for the approximating process. We construct here a general method based on spectral analysis of the transition matrix of the CTMC, without the need for a population structure. Specifically, we use the popular manifold learning method of diffusion maps to analyse the transition matrix as the operator of a hidden continuous process. An embedding of states in a continuous space is recovered, and the space is endowed with a drift vector field inferred via Gaussian process regression. In this manner, we construct an ODE whose solution approximates the evolution of the CTMC mean, mapped onto the continuous space (known as the fluid limit).

Multi-task Self-distillation for Graph-based Semi-Supervised Learning

Graph convolutional networks have made great progress in graph-based semi-supervised learning. Existing methods mainly assume that nodes connected by graph edges are prone to have similar attributes and labels, so that the features smoothed by local graph structures can reveal the class similarities. However, there often exist mismatches between graph structures and labels in many real-world scenarios, where the structures may propagate misleading features or labels that eventually affect the model performance. In this paper, we propose a multi-task self-distillation framework that injects self-supervised learning and self-distillation into graph convolutional networks to separately address the mismatch problem from the structure side and the label side. First, we formulate a self-supervision pipeline based on pre-text tasks to capture different levels of similarities in graphs. The feature extraction process is encouraged to capture more complex proximity by jointly optimizing the pre-text task and the target task. Consequently, the local feature aggregations are improved from the structure side. Second, self-distillation uses soft labels of the model itself as additional supervision, which has similar effects as label smoothing. The knowledge from the classification pipeline and the self-supervision pipeline is collectively distilled to improve the generalization ability of the model from the label side. Experiment results show that the proposed method obtains remarkable performance gains under several classic graph convolutional architectures.

The collapse of a massive star is believed to be the most probable progenitor of a long GRB. Such a star is expected to modify its environment by stellar wind. The effect of such a circum-stellar wind medium is expected to be seen in the evolution of a GRB afterglow, but has so far not been conclusively found. We claim that a signature of wind to constant density medium transition of circum-burst medium is visible in the afterglow of GRB 050319. Along with the optical observations of the afterglow of GRB 050319 we present a model for the multiband afterglow of GRB 050319. We show that the break seen in optical light curve at $\sim$ 0.02 day could be explained as being due to wind to constant density medium transition of circum-burst medium, in which case, to our knowledge, this could be the first ever detection of such a transition at any given frequency band. Detection of such a transition could also serve as a confirmation of massive star collapse scenario for GRB progenitors, independent of supernova signatures.

Introducing variability while maintaining coherence is a core task in learning to generate utterances in conversation. Standard neural encoder-decoder models and their extensions using conditional variational autoencoder often result in either trivial or digressive responses. To overcome this, we explore a novel approach that injects variability into neural encoder-decoder via the use of external memory as a mixture model, namely Variational Memory Encoder-Decoder (VMED). By associating each memory read with a mode in the latent mixture distribution at each timestep, our model can capture the variability observed in sequential data such as natural conversations. We empirically compare the proposed model against other recent approaches on various conversational datasets. The results show that VMED consistently achieves significant improvement over others in both metric-based and qualitative evaluations.

We generalize the Szemer\'edi-Trotter incidence theorem, to bound the number of complete \emph{flags} in higher dimensions. Specifically, for each $i=0,1,\ldots,d-1$, we are given a finite set $S_i$ of $i$-flats in $\R^d$ or in $\C^d$, and a (complete) flag is a tuple $(f_0,f_1,\ldots,f_{d-1})$, where $f_i\in S_i$ for each $i$ and $f_i\subset f_{i+1}$ for each $i=0,1,\ldots,d-2$. Our main result is an upper bound on the number of flags which is tight in the worst case. We also study several other kinds of incidence problems, including (i) incidences between points and lines in $\R^3$ such that among the lines incident to a point, at most $O(1)$ of them can be coplanar, (ii) incidences with Legendrian lines in $\R^3$, a special class of lines that arise when considering flags that are defined in terms of other groups, and (iii) flags in $\R^3$ (involving points, lines, and planes), where no given line can contain too many points or lie on too many planes. The bound that we obtain in (iii) is nearly tight in the worst case. Finally, we explore a group theoretic interpretation of flags, a generalized version of which leads us to new incidence problems.

A celebrated result of Dol'nikov, and of \v{Z}ivaljevi\'c and Vre\'cica, asserts that for every collection of $m$ measures $\mu_1,\dots,\mu_m$ on the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^{n + m - 1}$ there exists a projection onto an $n$-dimensional vector subspace $\Gamma$ with a point in it at depth at least $\tfrac{1}{n + 1}$ with respect to each associated $n$-dimensional marginal measure $\Gamma_*\mu_1,\dots,\Gamma_*\mu_m$. In this paper we consider a natural extension of this result and ask for a minimal dimension of a Euclidean space in which one can require that for any collection of $m$ measures there exists a vector subspace $\Gamma$ with a point in it at depth slightly greater than $\tfrac{1}{n + 1}$ with respect to each $n$-dimensional marginal measure. In particular, we prove that if the required depth is $\tfrac{1}{n + 1} + \tfrac{1}{3(n + 1)^3}$ then the increase in the dimension of the ambient space is a linear function in both $m$ and $n$.

Recent observations have found a valley in the size distribution of close-in super-Earths that is interpreted as a signpost that close-in super-Earths are mostly rocky in composition. However, new models predict that planetesimals should first form at the water ice line such that close-in planets are expected to have a significant water ice component. Here we investigate the water contents of super-Earths by studying the interplay between pebble accretion, planet migration and disc evolution. Planets' compositions are determined by their position relative to different condensation fronts (ice lines) throughout their growth. Migration plays a key role. Assuming that planetesimals start at or exterior to the water ice line ($r>r_{\rm H_2O}$), inward migration causes planets to leave the source region of icy pebbles and therefore to have lower final water contents than in discs with either outward migration or no migration. The water ice line itself moves inward as the disc evolves, and delivers water as it sweeps across planets that formed dry. The relative speed and direction of planet migration and inward drift of the water ice line is thus central in determining planets' water contents. If planet formation starts at the water ice line, this implies that hot close-in super-Earths (r<0.3 AU) with water contents of a few percent are a signpost of inward planet migration during the early gas phase. Hot super-Earths with larger water ice contents on the other hand, experienced outward migration at the water ice line and only migrated inwards after their formation was complete either because they become too massive to be contained in the region of outward migration or in chains of resonant planets. Measuring the water ice content of hot super-Earths may thus constrain their migration history.

The detectability of moons of extra-solar planets is investigated, focussing on the time-of-arrival perturbation technique, a method for detecting moons of pulsar planets, and the photometric transit timing technique, a method for detecting moons of transiting planets. Realistic thresholds are derived and analysed in the in the context of the types of moons that are likely to form and be orbitally stable for the lifetime of the system. For the case of the time-of-arrival perturbation technique, the analysis is conducted in two stages. First, a preliminary investigation is conducted assuming that planet and moon's orbit are circular and coplanar. This analysis is then applied to the case of the pulsar planet PSR B1620-26 b, and used to conclude that a stable moon orbiting this pulsar planet could be detected, if its mass was >5% of its planet's mass (2.5 Jupiter masses), and if the planet-moon distance was ~ 2% of the planet-pulsar separation (23 AU). Time-of-arrival expressions are then derived for mutually inclined as well as non-circular orbits. For the case of the photometric transit timing technique, a different approach is adopted. First, analytic expressions for the timing perturbation due to the moon are derived for the case where the orbit of the moon is circular and coplanar with that of the planet and where the planet's orbit is circular and aligned to the line-of-sight, circular and inclined with respect to the line-of-sight or eccentric and aligned to the line-of-sight. Second, the timing noise is investigated analytically, for the case of white photometric noise, and numerically, using SOHO lightcurves, for the case of realistic and filtered realistic photometric noise. [...] Abstract truncated due to the limitations of astroph. See full abstract in the thesis.

The denominated surface charge scraping mechanism was discovered in 2014 by using a new Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) based mode called Charge Gradient Microscopy. The measurements to probe such mechanism are achieved with the use of a current-to-voltage converter: a transimpedance amplifier (TIA). However, the use of an incorrect approximation, named Gain BandWidth Product (GBWP) to calculate TIAs BandWidth (BW) could mislead to an incorrect data interpretation. By measuring at higher frequencies than permitted, the amplifier is used as a current-to-voltage converter, in conditions where it behaves as a charge-to-voltage converter. In this manuscript, we report the specific conditions in which the transfer function of the same electronic circuit topology is valid, while we spot both ringing and unstable amplifiers artifacts in the published data. We finally perform physical measurements in similar conditions as reported, but fully respecting the BandWidth (BW) of the system. We find that the charge collected is way below the values reported in such publication, diminishing or even nullifying the impact of a possible charge scrapping mechanism. These findings pave the way to employ Direct Piezoelectric Force Microscopy (DPFM) as a fast ferroelectric nanoscale characterization tool.

We present an innovative method called FilExSeC (Filaments Extraction, Selection and Classification), a data mining tool developed to investigate the possibility to refine and optimize the shape reconstruction of filamentary structures detected with a consolidated method based on the flux derivative analysis, through the column-density maps computed from Herschel infrared Galactic Plane Survey (Hi-GAL) observations of the Galactic plane. The present methodology is based on a feature extraction module followed by a machine learning model (Random Forest) dedicated to select features and to classify the pixels of the input images. From tests on both simulations and real observations the method appears reliable and robust with respect to the variability of shape and distribution of filaments. In the cases of highly defined filament structures, the presented method is able to bridge the gaps among the detected fragments, thus improving their shape reconstruction. From a preliminary "a posteriori" analysis of derived filament physical parameters, the method appears potentially able to add a sufficient contribution to complete and refine the filament reconstruction.

Basing on unified approach to {\it all} kinds of quantum capacities we show that the rate of quantum information transmission is bounded by the maximal attainable rate of coherent information. Moreover, we show that, if for any bipartite state the one-way distillable entanglement is no less than coherent information, then one obtains Shannon-like formulas for all the capacities. The inequality also implies that the decrease of distillable entanglement due to mixing process does not exceed of corresponding loss information about a system.

Motivated by Dunkl operators theory, we consider a generating series involving a modified Bessel function and a Gegenbauer polynomial, that generalizes a known series already considered by L. Gegenbauer. We actually use inversion formulas for Fourier and Radon transforms to derive a closed formula for this series when the parameter of the Gegenbauer polynomial is a strictly positive integer. As a by-product, we get a relatively simple integral representation for the generalized Bessel function associated with even dihedral groups when both multiplicities sum to an integer. In particular, we recover a previous result obtained for the square symmetries-preserving group and we give a special interest to the hexagon. The paper is closed with adapting our method to odd dihedral groups thereby exhausting the list of Weyl dihedral groups.

We operated a p-type point contact high purity germanium (PPCGe) detector (CDEX-1B, 1.008 kg) in the China Jinping Underground Laboratory (CJPL) for 500.3 days to search for neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay of $^{76}$Ge. A total of 504.3 kg $\cdot$ day effective exposure data was accumulated. The anti-coincidence and the multi/single-site event (MSE/SSE) discrimination methods were used to suppress the background in the energy region of interest (ROI, $1989-2089$ keV for this work) with a factor of 23. A background level of 0.33 counts/(keV $\cdot$ kg $\cdot$ yr) was achieved. The lower limit on the half life of $^{76}$Ge $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay was constrained as $T_{1/2}^{0\nu}\ > \ {2.2}\times 10^{23}\ \rm yr\ (90\% \ C.L.)$, corresponding to the upper limits on the effective Majorana neutrino mass: $\langle m_{\beta\beta}\rangle < 2.3-5.2\ \mathrm{eV}$.

A dominant paradigm for learning-based approaches in computer vision is training generic models, such as ResNet for image recognition, or I3D for video understanding, on large datasets and allowing them to discover the optimal representation for the problem at hand. While this is an obviously attractive approach, it is not applicable in all scenarios. We claim that action detection is one such challenging problem - the models that need to be trained are large, and labeled data is expensive to obtain. To address this limitation, we propose to incorporate domain knowledge into the structure of the model, simplifying optimization. In particular, we augment a standard I3D network with a tracking module to aggregate long term motion patterns, and use a graph convolutional network to reason about interactions between actors and objects. Evaluated on the challenging AVA dataset, the proposed approach improves over the I3D baseline by 5.5% mAP and over the state-of-the-art by 4.8% mAP.

Private handshaking allows pairs of users to determine which (secret) groups they are both a member of. Group membership is kept secret to everybody else. Private handshaking is a more private form of secret handshaking, because it does not allow the group administrator to trace users. We extend the original definition of a handshaking protocol to allow and test for membership of multiple groups simultaneously. We present simple and efficient protocols for both the single group and multiple group membership case. Private handshaking is a useful tool for mutual authentication, demanded by many pervasive applications (including RFID) for privacy. Our implementations are efficient enough to support such usually resource constrained scenarios.

Resonances of cylindrical symmetric microwave cavities are analyzed in R-matrix theory which transforms the input channel conditions to the output channels. Single and interfering double resonances are studied and compared with experimental results, obtained with superconducting microwave cavities. Because of the equivalence of the two-dimensional Helmholtz and the stationary Schroedinger equations, the results present insight into the resonance structure of regular and chaotic quantum billiards.

A local magnetic equilibrium solution is sought around the magnetic axis in order to identify the key parameters defining the magnetic-surface's up-down asymmetry in the core of tokamak plasmas. The asymmetry is found to be determined essentially by the ratio of the toroidal current density flowing on axis to the fraction of the external field's odd perturbation that manages to propagate from the plasma boundary into the core. The predictions are tested and illustrated first with an analytical Solovev equilibrium and then using experimentally relevant numerical equilibria. Hollow current-density distributions, and hence reverse magnetic shear, are seen to be crucial to bring into the core asymmetry values that are usually found only near the plasma edge.

It has been known since the pioneering work of Onsager and Feynman that the statistical mechanics and dynamics of vortices play an essential role in the behavior of superfluids and superconductors. However, the theory of vortices in quantum fluids remains in a most unsatisfactory state, with many conflicting results in the literature. In this paper we review the theory of Thouless, Ao and Niu, which gives an expression for the total transverse force acting on a quantized vortex that is in apparent disagreement with the work of Iordanskii and of Lifshitz and Pitaevskii. In particular, no transverse force proportional to the asymptotic normal fluid velocity was found. We use two-fluid hydrodynamics to study this discrepancy.

These invariants are constructed by using the off-diagonal heat kernel; they are not pure spectral invariants, that is, they depend not only on the eigenvalues but also on the corresponding eigenfunctions in a non-trivial way. We compute the first three low-order invariants explicitly.

We explore the utility of Karhunen Loeve (KL) analysis in solving practical problems in the analysis of gravitational shear surveys. Shear catalogs from large-field weak lensing surveys will be subject to many systematic limitations, notably incomplete coverage and pixel-level masking due to foreground sources. We develop a method to use two dimensional KL eigenmodes of shear to interpolate noisy shear measurements across masked regions. We explore the results of this method with simulated shear catalogs, using statistics of high-convergence regions in the resulting map. We find that the KL procedure not only minimizes the bias due to masked regions in the field, it also reduces spurious peak counts from shape noise by a factor of ~ 3 in the cosmologically sensitive regime. This indicates that KL reconstructions of masked shear are not only useful for creating robust convergence maps from masked shear catalogs, but also offer promise of improved parameter constraints within studies of shear peak statistics.

One of the cornerstones of the field of signal processing on graphs are graph filters, direct analogues of classical filters, but intended for signals defined on graphs. This work brings forth new insights on the distributed graph filtering problem. We design a family of autoregressive moving average (ARMA) recursions, which (i) are able to approximate any desired graph frequency response, and (ii) give exact solutions for tasks such as graph signal denoising and interpolation. The design philosophy, which allows us to design the ARMA coefficients independently from the underlying graph, renders the ARMA graph filters suitable in static and, particularly, time-varying settings. The latter occur when the graph signal and/or graph are changing over time. We show that in case of a time-varying graph signal our approach extends naturally to a two-dimensional filter, operating concurrently in the graph and regular time domains. We also derive sufficient conditions for filter stability when the graph and signal are time-varying. The analytical and numerical results presented in this paper illustrate that ARMA graph filters are practically appealing for static and time-varying settings, as predicted by theoretical derivations.

Chimera states, which consist of coexisting domains of spatially coherent and incoherent dynamics, have been widely found in nonlocally coupled oscillatory systems. We demonstrate for the first time that chimera states can emerge from excitable systems under nonlocal coupling in which isolated units only allow for the equilibrium. We theoretically reveal that nonlocal coupling induced collective oscillation is behind the occurrence of the chimera states. We find two different types of chimera states, phase-chimera state and excitability-chimera states, depending on the coupling strength. At weak coupling strength where collective oscillation is localized around the unstable homogeneous equilibrium, the chimera states are similar to the ones in nonlocally coupled phase oscillators. For the chimera states at strong coupling strength, the dynamics of both coherent units and incoherent units shift back and forth between low amplitude oscillation induced by collective oscillation and high amplitude oscillation induced by excitability of local units.

We examine the radiative $\Delta \to \gamma N$ transition at the real photon point $Q^2=0$ using the framework of light-cone QCD sum rules. In particular, the sum rules for the transition form factors $G_M(0)$ and $R_{EM}$ are determined up to twist 4. The result for $G_M(0)$ agrees with experiment within 10% accuracy. The agreement for $R_{EM}$ is also reasonable. In addition, we derive new light-cone sum rules for the magnetic moments of nucleons, with a complete account of twist-4 corrections based on a recent reanalysis of photon distribution amplitudes.

How much time does a tunneling particle spend in a barrier? A Larmor clock, one proposal to answer this question, measures the interaction between the particle and the barrier region using an auxiliary degree of freedom of the particle to clock the dwell time inside the barrier. We report on precise Larmor time measurements of ultra-cold $^{87}$Rb atoms tunneling through an optical barrier, which confirm longstanding predictions of tunneling times. We observe that atoms generally spend less time tunneling through higher barriers and that this time decreases for lower energy particles. For the lowest measured incident energy, at least $90\%$ of transmitted atoms tunneled through the barrier, spending an average of $0.59(2)$ms inside. This is $0.11(3)$ms faster than atoms traversing the same barrier with energy close to the barrier's peak and $0.21(3)$ms faster than when the atoms traverse a barrier with $23\%$ less energy.

This note proposes a simple and general framework of dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) and a mode selection for large datasets. The proposed framework explicitly introduces a preconditioning step using an incremental proper orthogonal decomposition to DMD and mode selection algorithms. By performing the preconditioning step, the DMD and the mode selection can be performed with low memory consumption and small computational complexity and can be applied to large datasets. In addition, a simple mode selection algorithm based on a greedy method is proposed. The proposed framework is applied to the analysis of a three-dimensional flows around a circular cylinder.

We investigate the correspondence between a non-equilibrium ensemble defined via the distribution of phase-space paths of a Hamiltonian system, and a system driven into a steady-state by non-equilibrium boundary conditions. To discover whether the non-equilibrium path ensemble adequately describes the physics of a driven system, we measure transition rates in a simple one-dimensional model of rotors with Newtonian dynamics and purely conservative interactions. We compare those rates with known properties of the non-equilibrium path ensemble. In doing so, we establish effective protocols for the analysis of transition rates in non-equilibrium quasi-steady states. Transition rates between potential wells and also between phase-space elements are studied, and found to exhibit distinct properties, the more coarse-grained potential wells being effectively further from equilibrium. In all cases the results from the boundary-driven system are close to the path-ensemble predictions, but the question of equivalence of the two remains open.

This paper extends the considerations of the works [1, 2] regarding curse-of-dimensionality-free numerical approaches to solve certain types of Hamilton-Jacobi equations arising in optimal control problems, differential games and elsewhere. A rigorous formulation and justification for the extended Hopf-Lax formula of [2] is provided together with novel theoretical and practical discussions including useful recommendations. By using the method of characteristics, the solutions of some problem classes under convexity/concavity conditions on Hamiltonians (in particular, the solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations in optimal control problems) are evaluated separately at different initial positions. This allows for the avoidance of the curse of dimensionality, as well as for choosing arbitrary computational regions. The corresponding feedback control strategies are obtained at selected positions without approximating the partial derivatives of the solutions. The results of numerical simulations demonstrate the high potential of the proposed techniques. It is also pointed out that, despite the indicated advantages, the related approaches still have a limited range of applicability, and their extensions to Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equations in zero-sum two-player differential games are currently developed only for sufficiently narrow classes of control systems. That is why further extensions are worth investigating.

We introduce a natural symplectic structure on the moduli space of quadratic differentials with simple zeros and describe its Darboux coordinate systems in terms of so-called homological coordinates. We then show that this structure coincides with the canonical Poisson structure on the cotangent bundle of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, and therefore the homological coordinates provide a new system of Darboux coordinates. We define a natural family of commuting "homological flows" on the moduli space of quadratic differentials and find the corresponding action-angle variables. The space of projective structures over the moduli space can be identified with the cotangent bundle upon selection of a reference projective connection that varies holomorphically and thus can be naturally endowed with a symplectic structure. Different choices of projective connections of this kind (Bergman, Schottky, Wirtinger) give rise to equivalent symplectic structures on the space of projective connections but different symplectic polarizations: the corresponding generating functions are found. We also study the monodromy representation of the Schwarzian equation associated with a projective connection, and we show that the natural symplectic structure on the the space of projective connections induces the Goldman Poisson structure on the character variety. Combined with results of Kawai, this result shows the symplectic equivalence between the embeddings of the cotangent bundle into the space of projective structures given by the Bers and Bergman projective connections.

Securing Federated Learning against Overwhelming Collusive Attackers

In the era of a data-driven society with the ubiquity of Internet of Things (IoT) devices storing large amounts of data localized at different places, distributed learning has gained a lot of traction, however, assuming independent and identically distributed data (iid) across the devices. While relaxing this assumption that anyway does not hold in reality due to the heterogeneous nature of devices, federated learning (FL) has emerged as a privacy-preserving solution to train a collaborative model over non-iid data distributed across a massive number of devices. However, the appearance of malicious devices (attackers), who intend to corrupt the FL model, is inevitable due to unrestricted participation. In this work, we aim to identify such attackers and mitigate their impact on the model, essentially under a setting of bidirectional label flipping attacks with collusion. We propose two graph theoretic algorithms, based on Minimum Spanning Tree and k-Densest graph, by leveraging correlations between local models. Our FL model can nullify the influence of attackers even when they are up to 70% of all the clients whereas prior works could not afford more than 50% of clients as attackers. The effectiveness of our algorithms is ascertained through experiments on two benchmark datasets, namely MNIST and Fashion-MNIST, with overwhelming attackers. We establish the superiority of our algorithms over the existing ones using accuracy, attack success rate, and early detection round.

Local Orthogonality Dimension

An orthogonal representation of a graph $G$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is an assignment of a vector $u_v \in \mathbb{F}^t$ to every vertex $v$ of $G$, such that $\langle u_v,u_v \rangle \neq 0$ for every vertex $v$ and $\langle u_v,u_{v'} \rangle = 0$ whenever $v$ and $v'$ are adjacent in $G$. The locality of the orthogonal representation is the largest dimension of a subspace spanned by the vectors associated with a closed neighborhood in the graph. We introduce a novel graph parameter, called the local orthogonality dimension, defined for a given graph $G$ and a given field $\mathbb{F}$, as the smallest possible locality of an orthogonal representation of $G$ over $\mathbb{F}$. We investigate the usefulness of topological methods for proving lower bounds on the local orthogonality dimension. We prove that graphs for which topological methods imply a lower bound of $t$ on their chromatic number have local orthogonality dimension at least $\lceil t/2 \rceil +1$ over every field, strengthening a result of Simonyi and Tardos on the local chromatic number. We show that for certain graphs this lower bound is tight, whereas for others, the local orthogonality dimension over the reals is equal to the chromatic number. More generally, we prove that for every complement of a line graph, the local orthogonality dimension over $\mathbb{R}$ coincides with the chromatic number. This strengthens a recent result by Daneshpajouh, Meunier, and Mizrahi, who proved that the local and standard chromatic numbers of these graphs are equal. As another extension of their result, we prove that the local and standard chromatic numbers are equal for some additional graphs, from the family of Kneser graphs. We also show an $\mathsf{NP}$-hardness result for the local orthogonality dimension and present an application of this graph parameter to the index coding problem from information theory.

Hand gestures are an intuitive, socially acceptable, and a non-intrusive interaction modality in Mixed Reality (MR) and smartphone based applications. Unlike speech interfaces, they tend to perform well even in shared and public spaces. Hand gestures can also be used to interact with smartphones in situations where the user's ability to physically touch the device is impaired. However, accurate gesture recognition can be achieved through state-of-the-art deep learning models or with the use of expensive sensors. Despite the robustness of these deep learning models, they are computationally heavy and memory hungry, and obtaining real-time performance on-device without additional hardware is still a challenge. To address this, we propose AirPen: an analogue to pen on paper, but in air, for in-air writing and gestural commands that works seamlessly in First and Second Person View. The models are trained on a GPU machine and ported on an Android smartphone. AirPen comprises of three deep learning models that work in tandem: MobileNetV2 for hand localisation, our custom fingertip regression architecture followed by a Bi-LSTM model for gesture classification. The overall framework works in real-time on mobile devices and achieves a classification accuracy of 80% with an average latency of only 0.12 s.

We introduce a family of graph parameters, called induced multipartite graph parameters, and study their computational complexity. First, we consider the following decision problem: an instance is an induced multipartite graph parameter $p$ and a given graph $G$, and for natural numbers $k\geq2$ and $\ell$, we must decide whether the maximum value of $p$ over all induced $k$-partite subgraphs of $G$ is at most $\ell$. We prove that this problem is W[1]-hard. Next, we consider a variant of this problem, where we must decide whether the given graph $G$ contains a sufficiently large induced $k$-partite subgraph $H$ such that $p(H)\leq\ell$. We show that for certain parameters this problem is para-NP-hard, while for others it is fixed-parameter tractable.

Recently phosphorene, monolayer honeycomb structure of black phosphorus, was experimentally manufactured and attracts rapidly growing interests. Here we investigate stability and electronic properties of honeycomb structure of arsenic system based on first principle calculations. Two types of honeycomb structures, buckled and puckered, are found to be stable. We call them arsenene as in the case of phosphorene. We find that both the buckled and puckered arsenene possess indirect gaps. We show that the band gap of the puckered and buckled arsenene can be tuned by applying strain. The gap closing occurs at 6% strain for puckered arsenene, where the bond angles between the nearest neighbour become nearly equal. An indirect-to-direct gap transition occurs by applying strain. Especially, 1% strain is enough to transform the puckered arsenene into a direct-gap semiconductor. Our results will pave a way for applications to light-emitting diodes and solar cells.

The dialogue management is a task of conversational artificial intelligence. The goal of the dialogue manager is to select the appropriate response to the conversational partner conditioned by the input message and recent dialogue state. Hybrid Code Networks is one of the models of dialogue managers, which uses an average of word embeddings and bag-of-words as input features. We perform experiments on Dialogue bAbI Task 6 and Alquist Conversational Dataset. The experiments show that the convolutional neural network used as an input layer of the Hybrid Code Network improves the model's turn accuracy.

This paper addresses the problem of computing optimal impedance schedules for legged locomotion tasks involving complex contact interactions. We formulate the problem of impedance regulation as a trade-off between disturbance rejection and measurement uncertainty. We extend a stochastic optimal control algorithm known as Risk Sensitive Control to take into account measurement uncertainty and propose a formal way to include such uncertainty for unknown contact locations. The approach can efficiently generate optimal state and control trajectories along with local feedback control gains, i.e. impedance schedules. Extensive simulations demonstrate the capabilities of the approach in generating meaningful stiffness and damping modulation patterns before and after contact interaction. For example, contact forces are reduced during early contacts, damping increases to anticipate a high impact event and tracking is automatically traded-off for increased stability. In particular, we show a significant improvement in performance during jumping and trotting tasks with a simulated quadruped robot.

Autonomous machines (e.g., vehicles, mobile robots, drones) require sophisticated 3D mapping to perceive the dynamic environment. However, maintaining a real-time 3D map is expensive both in terms of compute and memory requirements, especially for resource-constrained edge machines. Probabilistic OctoMap is a reliable and memory-efficient 3D dense map model to represent the full environment, with dynamic voxel node pruning and expansion capacity. This paper presents the first efficient accelerator solution, i.e. OMU, to enable real-time probabilistic 3D mapping at the edge. To improve the performance, the input map voxels are updated via parallel PE units for data parallelism. Within each PE, the voxels are stored using a specially developed data structure in parallel memory banks. In addition, a pruning address manager is designed within each PE unit to reuse the pruned memory addresses. The proposed 3D mapping accelerator is implemented and evaluated using a commercial 12 nm technology. Compared to the ARM Cortex-A57 CPU in the Nvidia Jetson TX2 platform, the proposed accelerator achieves up to 62$\times$ performance and 708$\times$ energy efficiency improvement. Furthermore, the accelerator provides 63 FPS throughput, more than 2$\times$ higher than a real-time requirement, enabling real-time perception for 3D mapping.

FAST is a facility at Fermilab that consists of a photoinjector, two superconducting capture cavities, one superconducting ILC-style cryomodule, and a small ring for studying non-linear, integrable beam optics called IOTA. This paper discusses the layout for the optical transport system that provides optical radiation to an externally located streak camera for bunch length measurements, and THz radiation to a Martin-Puplett interferometer, also for bunch length measurements. It accepts radiation from two synchrotron radiation ports in a chicane bunch compressor and a diffraction/transition radiation screen downstream of the compressor. It also has the potential to access signal from a transition radiation screen or YAG screen after the spectrometer magnet for measurements of energy-time correlations. Initial results from both the streak camera and Martin-Puplett will be presented.

In astrophysics, several key questions in the hard X soft Gamma-ray range (above 100 keV) require sensitivity and angular resolution that are hardly achievable with current technologies. Therefore, a new kind of instrument able to focus hard X and gamma-rays is essential. Broad band Laue lenses seem to be the only solution to fulfil these requirements, significantly improving the sensitivity and angular resolution of the X and gamma-ray telescopes. This type of high-energy optics will require highly performing focal plane detectors in terms of detection efficiency, spatial resolution, and spectroscopy. This paper presents the results obtained in the project 'Technological Readiness Increase for Laue Lenses (TRILL)' framework using a Caliste-HD detector module. This detector is a pixel spectrometer developed at CEA (Commissariat a Energie Atomique, Saclay, France). It is used to acquire spectroscopic images of the focal spot produced by Laue Lens bent crystals under a hard X-ray beam at the LARIX facility (University of Ferrara, Italy).

The emittance growth in the HL-LHC due to beam-beam effects is examined by virtue of strong-strong computer simulations. A model of the transverse damper and the noise level have been tuned to simulate the emittance growth in the present LHC. Simulations with projected HL-LHC beam parameters and crab cavities are discussed. It is shown that with the nominal working point, the large beam-beam tune shift moves the beam into a resonance that causes substantial emittance growth. Increasing the working point slightly is demonstrated to be very beneficial.

Using deep reinforcement learning, we train control policies for autonomous vehicles leading a platoon of vehicles onto a roundabout. Using Flow, a library for deep reinforcement learning in micro-simulators, we train two policies, one policy with noise injected into the state and action space and one without any injected noise. In simulation, the autonomous vehicle learns an emergent metering behavior for both policies in which it slows to allow for smoother merging. We then directly transfer this policy without any tuning to the University of Delaware Scaled Smart City (UDSSC), a 1:25 scale testbed for connected and automated vehicles. We characterize the performance of both policies on the scaled city. We show that the noise-free policy winds up crashing and only occasionally metering. However, the noise-injected policy consistently performs the metering behavior and remains collision-free, suggesting that the noise helps with the zero-shot policy transfer. Additionally, the transferred, noise-injected policy leads to a 5% reduction of average travel time and a reduction of 22% in maximum travel time in the UDSSC. Videos of the controllers can be found at https://sites.google.com/view/iccps-policy-transfer.

According to a widely-held paradigm, a pair of Weyl points with opposite chirality mutually annihilate when brought together. In contrast, we show that such a process is strictly forbidden for Weyl points related by a mirror symmetry, provided that an effective two-band description exists in terms of orbitals with opposite mirror eigenvalue. Instead, such a pair of Weyl points convert into a nodal loop inside a symmetric plane upon the collision. Similar constraints are identified for systems with multiple mirrors, facilitating previously unreported nodal-line and nodal-chain semimetals that exhibit both Fermi-arc and drumhead surface states. We further find that Weyl points in systems symmetric under a $\pi$-rotation composed with time-reversal are characterized by an additional integer charge that we call helicity. A pair of Weyl points with opposite chirality can annihilate only if their helicities also cancel out. We base our predictions on topological crystalline invariants derived from relative homotopy theory, and we test our predictions on simple tight-binding models. The outlined homotopy description can be directly generalized to systems with multiple bands and other choices of symmetry.

Yielding and hardening of flexible fiber packings during triaxial compression

This paper examines the mechanical response of flexible fiber packings subject to triaxial compression. Short fibers yield in a manner similar to typical granular materials in which the deviatoric stress remains nearly constant with increasing strain after reaching a peak value. Interestingly, long fibers exhibit a hardening behavior, where the stress increases rapidly with increasing strain at large strains and the packing density continuously increases. Phase diagrams for classifying the bulk mechanical response as yielding, hardening, or a transition regime are generated as a function of the fiber aspect ratio, fiber-fiber friction coefficient, and confining pressure. Large fiber aspect ratio, large fiber-fiber friction coefficient, and large confining pressure promote hardening behavior. The hardening packings can support much larger loads than the yielding packings contributing to the stability and consolidation of the granular structure, but larger internal axial forces occur within fibers.

Radiotherapy is one of the main methods in the successful treatment of cancer. The tumor is irradiated with photons or charged particles (e.g. protons), and in the case of massive charged particles, the treatment results in less unnecessary dose outside the tumor and therefore less side effects for the patient and a faster recovery. However, the dose planning of hadron therapy is calculated from photon CT measurements, which results in large uncertainties in the planning and therefore in a necessary enlargement of the treatment area. This uncertainty can be reduced by performing the CT scan using protons. The current contribution shows the development of a sampling calorimeter for proton CT measurements and describes the state of the project.

Near the beginning of the century, Wright and Fisher devised an elegant, mathematically tractable model of gene reproduction and replacement that laid the foundation for contemporary population genetics. The Wright-Fisher model and its extensions have given biologists powerful tools of statistical inference that enabled the quantification of genetic drift and selection. Given the utility of these tools, we often forget that their model - for mathematical, and not biological reasons - makes assumptions that are violated in most real-world populations. In this paper, I consider an alternative framework that merges P. A. P. Moran's continuous-time Markov chain model of allele frequency with the density dependent models of ecological competition proposed by Gause, Lotka and Volterra, that, unlike Moran's model allow for a stochastically varying -- but bounded -- population size. I require that allele numbers vary according to a density-dependent population process, for which the limiting law of large numbers is a dissipative, irreducible, competitive dynamical system. Under the assumption that this limiting system admits a codimension one submanifold of attractive fixed points -- a condition that naturally generalises the weak selection regime of classical population dynamics -- it is shown that for an appropriate rescaling of time, the finite dimensional distributions of the original process converge to those of a diffusion process on the submanifold. Weak convergence results are also obtained for a related process.

The entangling power and operator entanglement entropy are state independent measures of entanglement. Their growth and saturation is examined in the time-evolution operator of quantum many-body systems that can range from the integrable to the fully chaotic. An analytically solvable integrable model of the kicked transverse field Ising chain is shown to have ballistic growth of operator von Neumann entanglement entropy and exponentially fast saturation of the linear entropy with time. Surprisingly a fully chaotic model with longitudinal fields turned on shares the same growth phase, and is consistent with a random matrix model that is also exactly solvable for the linear entropy entanglements. However an examination of the entangling power shows that its largest value is significantly less than the nearly maximal value attained by the nonintegrable one. The importance of long-range spectral correlations, and not just the nearest neighbor spacing, is pointed out in determing the growth of entanglement in nonintegrable systems. Finally an interesting case that displays some features peculiar to both integrable and nonintegrable systems is briefly discussed.

We investigate the utility of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) and the red giant branch (RGB) as probes of the star formation history (SFH) of the nearby (D=2.5 Mpc) dwarf irregular galaxy, KKH 98. Near-infrared (IR) Keck Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics (AO) images resolve 592 IR bright stars reaching over 1 magnitude below the Tip of the Red Giant Branch. Significantly deeper optical (F475W and F814W) Hubble Space Telescope images of the same field contain over 2500 stars, reaching to the Red Clump and the Main Sequence turn-off for 0.5 Gyr old populations. Compared to the optical color magnitude diagram (CMD), the near-IR CMD shows significantly tighter AGB sequences, providing a good probe of the intermediate age (0.5 - 5 Gyr) populations. We match observed CMDs with stellar evolution models to recover the SFH of KKH 98. On average, the galaxy has experienced relatively constant low-level star formation (5 x 10^-4 Mo yr^-1) for much of cosmic time. Except for the youngest main sequence populations (age < 0.1 Gyr), which are typically fainter than the AO data flux limit, the SFH estimated from the the 592 IR bright stars is a reasonable match to that derived from the much larger optical data set. Differences between the optical and IR derived SFHs for 0.1 - 1 Gyr populations suggest that current stellar evolution models may be over-producing the AGB by as much as a factor of three in this galaxy. At the depth of the AO data, the IR luminous stars are not crowded. Therefore these techniques can potentially be used to determine the stellar populations of galaxies at significantly further distances.

For the collapsar scenario to be effective in the production of Gamma Ray Bursts, the infalling star's angular momentum $J(r)$ must be larger than the critical angular momentum needed to form an accretion disk around a blackhole (BH), namely $J_{\rm crit} = 2r_{g}c$ for a Schwarzschild BH. By means of 3D SPH simulations, here we study the collapse and accretion onto black holes of spherical rotating envelopes, whose angular momentum distribution has transitions between supercritical ($J>J_{\rm crit}$) and subcritical ($J<J_{\rm crit}$) values. Contrary to results obtained in previous 2D hydrodynamical simulations, we find that a substantial amount of subcritical material fed to the accretion disk, lingers around long enough to contribute significantly to the energy loss rate. Increasing the amount of angular momentum in the subcritical material increases the time spent at the accretion disk, and only when the bulk of this subcritical material is accreted before it is replenished by a massive outermost supercritical shell, the inner engine experiences a shutdown. Once the muffled accretion disk is provided again with enough supercritical material, the shutdown will be over and a quiescent time in the long GRB produced afterwards could be observed.

We examine the interaction of multigrid methods and shape optimization in appropriate shape spaces. Our aim is a scalable algorithm for application on supercomputers, which can only be achieved by mesh-independent convergence. The impact of discrete approximations of geometrical quantities, like the mean curvature, on a multigrid shape optimization algorithm with quasi-Newton updates is investigated. For the purpose of illustration, we consider a complex model for the identification of cellular structures in biology with minimal compliance in terms of elasticity and diffusion equations.

Ensuring high performance, while meeting the power budget is a challenging task as the world is moving towards next-generation computing. Researchers and designers are in search of new solutions for efficient computation. Spintronics devices have been viewed as a promising way to deal with the escalating difficulties of CMOS downscaling, explicitly, the Magnetic Tunnel Junction (MTJ) devices have been the focal point of investigation. They possess some essential features from the aforementioned perspective such as nonvolatility, low power, and scalability. In light of the significance of MTJ devices in next-generation computing, this paper presents a physics-based STT/SHE MTJ model for hybrid MTJ/CMOS circuit simulation, that accurately emulates the device physics and stochastic thermal noise behavior of the MTJ. It is vital to have an MTJ compact model which is compatible with the open-source NGSPICE simulation framework since previously developed models are reliant on commercial EDA tools. In addition, for developing hybrid circuits with random process fluctuations, a simulator-independent Monte-Carlo simulation capability has been incorporated Finally, the STT/SHE-MTJ model is demonstrated using PCSA read/write operation and the implementation of neuron MTJ.

We study the effect of crowders on the melting profile of homogeneous and heterogeneous DNA molecules. We find out the melting profile of short DNA molecules and compare our findings with the experiments. We consider some random distribution of crowders along the chain, and by finding out the best match with the experiments, we attempt to identify the location of crowders in the experimental findings of Ghosh \cite{Ghosh_PNAS_2020}. We also study the melting of homogeneous DNA molecules of different lengths (25, 50, 75) in the presence of only one crowder in the chain. By varying the location of the crowder from one end to the other, we find that the melting temperature is susceptible to the location of the crowder at the ends. At the same time, there is minimal effect on the melting temperature due to the location of the crowder. {\it In vivo}, the strength of a crowders may vary along the chain. We study the melting of long heterogeneous chain in presence of five crowders of different strength. We find that there is a significant variation in the melting process of DNA in presence of crowders of variable strength.

In the pattern-of-zeros approach to quantum Hall states, a set of data {n;m;S_a|a=1,...,n; n,m,S_a in N} (called the pattern of zeros) is introduced to characterize a quantum Hall wave function. In this paper we find sufficient conditions on the pattern of zeros so that the data correspond to a valid wave function. Some times, a set of data {n;m;S_a} corresponds to a unique quantum Hall state, while other times, a set of data corresponds to several different quantum Hall states. So in the latter cases, the patterns of zeros alone does not completely characterize the quantum Hall states. In this paper, We find that the following expanded set of data {n;m;S_a;c|a=1,...,n; n,m,S_a in N; c in R} provides a more complete characterization of quantum Hall states. Each expanded set of data completely characterize a unique quantum Hall state, at least for the examples discussed in this paper. The result is obtained by combining the pattern of zeros and Z_n simple-current vertex algebra which describes a large class of Abelian and non-Abelian quantum Hall states \Phi_{Z_n}^sc. The more complete characterization in terms of {n;m;S_a;c} allows us to obtain more topological properties of those states, which include the central charge c of edge states, the scaling dimensions and the statistics of quasiparticle excitations.

Linear magnetoresistance (LMR) is of particular interest for memory, electronics, and sensing applications, especially when it does not saturate over a wide range of magnetic fields. One of its principal origins is local mobility or density inhomogeneities, often structural, which in the Parish-Littlewood theory leads to an unsaturating LMR proportional to mobility. Structural disorder, however, also tends to limit the mobility and hence the overall LMR amplitude. An alternative route to achieve large LMR is via non-structural inhomogeneities which do not affect the zero field mobility, like magnetic domains. Here, linear positive magnetoresistance caused by magnetic texture is reported in \ch{LaTiO3}/\ch{SrTiO3} heterostructures. The LMR amplitude reaches up to 6500\% at 9T. This colossal value is understood by the unusual combination of a very high thin film mobility, up to 40 000 cm$^2$/V.s, and a very large coverage of low-mobility regions. These regions correlate with a striped magnetic structure, compatible with a spiral magnetic texture in the \ch{LaTiO3} film, revealed by low temperature Lorentz transmission electron microscopy. These results provide a novel route for the engineering of large-LMR devices.

We calculate the binding energy of two $\Lambda$ hyperons bound to a nuclear core within the relativistic mean field theory. The starting point is a two-body relativistic equation of the Breit type suggested by the RMFT, and corrected for the two-particle interaction. We evaluate the 2 $\Lambda$ correlation energy and estimate the contribution of the $\sigma^*$ and $\Phi$ mesons, acting solely between hyperons, to the bond energy $\Delta{B_{\Lambda\Lambda}}$ of $^6_{\Lambda\Lambda}He$, $^{10}_{\Lambda\Lambda}Be$ and $^{13}_{\Lambda\Lambda}B$. Predictions of the $\Delta{B_{\Lambda\Lambda}}$ A dependence are made for heavier $\Lambda$-hypernuclei.

Possibility of a novel pseudo-scalar (octupole) order is studied theoretically for orbitally degenerate systems with strong spin-orbit coupling such as Ce$_x$La$_{1-x}$B$_6$. It is discussed that coexistence of an octupole order parameter and antiferromagnetic fluctuation should lead to drastic softening of the elastic constant by a mode-mixing effect. Nonlinear coupling between dipole, quadrupole and octupole fluctuations is taken into account in terms of a Ginzburg-Landau-type functional which is derived microscopically through path integral.

In this paper we establish a necessary and sufficient stability condition for a stochastic ring network. Such networks naturally appear in a variety of applications within communication, computer, and road traffic systems. They typically involve multiple customer types and some form of priority structure to decide which customer receives service. These two system features tend to complicate the issue of identifying a stability condition, but we demonstrate how the ring topology can be leveraged to solve the problem.

We have measured the differential resistance of mesoscopic gold wires of different lengths connected to an aluminum superconductor as a function of temperature and voltage. Our experimental results differ substantially from theoretical predictions which assume an infinite temperature independent gap in the superconductor. In addition to taking into account the temperature dependence of the gap, we must also introduce a temperature dependent inelastic scattering length in order to fit our data.

Tracking and identifying players is an important problem in computer vision based ice hockey analytics. Player tracking is a challenging problem since the motion of players in hockey is fast-paced and non-linear. There is also significant player-player and player-board occlusion, camera panning and zooming in hockey broadcast video. Prior published research perform player tracking with the help of handcrafted features for player detection and re-identification. Although commercial solutions for hockey player tracking exist, to the best of our knowledge, no network architectures used, training data or performance metrics are publicly reported. There is currently no published work for hockey player tracking making use of the recent advancements in deep learning while also reporting the current accuracy metrics used in literature. Therefore, in this paper, we compare and contrast several state-of-the-art tracking algorithms and analyze their performance and failure modes in ice hockey.

Some basic topics in Light-Front (LF) quantized field theory are reviewed. Poincar\`e algebra and the LF Spin operator are discussed. The local scalar field theory of the conventional framework is shown to correspond to a non-local Hamiltonian theory on the LF in view of the constraint equations on the phase space, which relate the bosonic condensates to the non-zero modes. This new ingredient is useful to describe the spontaneous symmetry breaking on the LF. The instability of the symmetric phase in two dimensional scalar theory when the coupling constant grows is shown in the LF theory renormalized to one loop order. Chern-Simons gauge theory, regarded to describe excitations with fractional statistics, is quantized in the light-cone gauge and a simple LF Hamiltonian obtained which may allow us to construct renormalized theory of anyons.

In this thesis we consider the problem of dynamics in canonical loop quantum gravity, primarily in the context of deparametrized models, in which a scalar field is taken as a physical time variable for the dynamics of the gravitational field. The dynamics of the quantum states of the gravitational field is then generated directly by a physical Hamiltonian operator, instead of being implicitly defined through the kernel of a Hamiltonian constraint. We introduce a new construction of a Hamiltonian operator for loop quantum gravity, which has both mathematical and practical advantages in comparison to earlier proposals. Most importantly, the new Hamiltonian can be constructed as a symmetric operator, and is therefore a mathematically consistent candidate for a generator of physical time evolution in deparametrized models. We develop methods for approximately evaluating the dynamics generated by a given physical Hamiltonian, even if an exact solution to the eigenvalue problem of the Hamiltonian cannot be achieved. We also introduce a new representation for intertwiners in loop quantum gravity, based on projecting intertwiners onto coherent states of angular momentum, and in which intertwiners are represented as polynomials of certain complex variables, and operators in loop quantum gravity are expressed as differential operators acting on these variables. In addition to reviewing the results of the author's scientific work, this thesis also gives a thorough introduction to the basic framework of canonical loop quantum gravity, and a self-contained presentation of the graphical formalism for SU(2) recoupling theory, which is the invaluable tool for performing practical calculations in loop quantum gravity. The author therefore hopes that parts of this thesis could serve as a comprehensible source of information for anyone interested in learning the elements of loop quantum gravity.

We present an explicit formula for Lorentz boosts and rotations that commute with BMS supertranslations in asymptotically flat spacetimes. Key to the construction is the use of infrared regularizations and of a unitary transformation that makes observables commute with the soft degrees of freedom. We explicitly verify that our charges satisfy the Lorentz algebra and we check that they are consistent with expectations by evaluating them on the supertranslated Minkowski space and on the boosted Kerr black hole.

As a consequence of the local result, in addition to $H^2$-energy conservation law, we are able to prove the global well-posedness result in $H^2(\mathbb{R})$. Finally, we present a stability result for 5th order Gardner breather solution in the Sobolev space $H^2(\mathbb{R})$.

A precise interstellar dust extinction law is critically important to interpret observations. There are two indicators of extinction: the color excess ratio (CER) and the relative extinction. Compared to the CER, the wavelength-dependent relative extinction is more challenging to be determined. In this work, we combine spectroscopic, astrometric, and photometric data to derive high-precision CERs and relative extinction from optical to mid-infrared (IR) bands. A group of 61,111 red clump (RC) stars are selected as tracers by stellar parameters from APOGEE survey. The multiband photometric data are collected from Gaia, APASS, SDSS, Pan-STARRS1, 2MASS, and WISE surveys. For the first time, we calibrate the curvature of CERs in determining CERs E(lambda-GRP)/E(GBP-GRP) from color excess--color excess diagrams. Through elaborate uncertainty analysis, we conclude that the precision of our CERs is significantly improved (sigma < 0.015). With parallaxes from Gaia DR2, we calculate the relative extinction A_GBP/A_GRP for 5051 RC stars. By combining the CERs with the A_GBP/A_GRP, the optical--mid-IR extinction A_lambda/A_GRP has been determined in a total of 21 bands. Given no bias toward any specific environment, our extinction law represents the average extinction law with the total-to-selective extinction ratio Rv=3.16+-0.15. Our observed extinction law supports an adjustment in parameters of the CCM Rv=3.1 curve, together with the near-IR power-law index alpha=2.07+-0.03. The relative extinction values of HST and JWST near-IR bandpasses are predicted in 2.5% precision. As the observed reddening/extinction tracks are curved, the curvature correction needs to be considered when applying extinction correction.

The effectiveness of model-based versus model-free methods is a long-standing question in reinforcement learning (RL). Motivated by recent empirical success of RL on continuous control tasks, we study the sample complexity of popular model-based and model-free algorithms on the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR). We show that for policy evaluation, a simple model-based plugin method requires asymptotically less samples than the classical least-squares temporal difference (LSTD) estimator to reach the same quality of solution; the sample complexity gap between the two methods can be at least a factor of state dimension. For policy evaluation, we study a simple family of problem instances and show that nominal (certainty equivalence principle) control also requires several factors of state and input dimension fewer samples than the policy gradient method to reach the same level of control performance on these instances. Furthermore, the gap persists even when employing commonly used baselines. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first theoretical result which demonstrates a separation in the sample complexity between model-based and model-free methods on a continuous control task.

In particular, we present two UGformer variants, wherein the first variant (publicized in September 2019) is to leverage the transformer on a set of sampled neighbors for each input node, while the second (publicized in May 2021) is to leverage the transformer on all input nodes. Experimental results demonstrate that the first UGformer variant achieves state-of-the-art accuracies on benchmark datasets for graph classification in both inductive setting and unsupervised transductive setting; and the second UGformer variant obtains state-of-the-art accuracies for inductive text classification.

A Paradigm for Density Functional Theory Using Electron Distribution on the Energy Coordinate

Static correlation error(SCE) inevitably emerges when a dissociation of a covalent bond is described with a conventional denstiy-functional theory (DFT) for electrons. SCE gives rise to a serious overshoot in the potential energy at the dissociation limit even in the simplest molecules. The error is attributed to the basic framework of the approximate functional for the exchange correlation energy Exc which refers only to local properties at coordinate r, namely, the electron density n(r) and its derivatives. To solve the problem we developed a functional Ee which uses xc the energy electron distribution ne(e) as a fundamental variable in DFT. ne(e) is obtained by the projection of the density n(r) onto an energy coordinate e defined with the external potential of interest. The functional was applied to the dissociations of single, double, and triple bonds in small molecules showing reasonable agreements with the results given by a high level molecular orbitals theory. We also applied the functional to the computation of the energy change associated with spin depolarization and symmetrization in Carbon atom, which made an improvement over the conventional functional. This work opens the way for development of tougher functional that necessitates non-local properties of electrons such as kinetic energy functional.

Modulation classification is an essential step of signal processing and has been regularly applied in the field of tele-communication. Since variations of frequency with respect to time remains a vital distinction among radio signals having different modulation formats, these variations can be used for feature extraction by converting 1-D radio signals into frequency domain. In this paper, we propose a scheme for Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) using modern architectures of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), through generating spectrum images of eleven different modulation types. Additionally, we perform resolution transformation of spectrograms that results up to 99.61% of computational load reduction and 8x faster conversion from the received I/Q data. This proposed AMC is implemented on CPU and GPU, to recognize digital as well as analogue signal modulation schemes on signals. The performance is evaluated on existing CNN models including SqueezeNet, Resnet-50, InceptionResnet-V2, Inception-V3, VGG-16 and Densenet-201. Best results of 91.2% are achieved in presence of AWGN and other noise impairments in the signals, stating that the transformed spectrogram-based AMC has good classification accuracy as the spectral features are highly discriminant, and CNN based models have capability to extract these high-dimensional features. The spectrograms were created under different SNRs ranging from 5 to 30db with a step size of 5db to observe the experimental results at various SNR levels. The proposed methodology is efficient to be applied in wireless communication networks for real-time applications.

In some quantum many-body systems, the Hilbert space breaks up into a large ergodic sector and a much smaller scar subspace. It has been suggested [arXiv:2007.00845] that the two sectors may be distinguished by their transformation properties under a large group whose rank grows with the system size (it is not a symmetry of the Hamiltonian). The quantum many-body scars are invariant under this group, while all other states are not. Here we apply this idea to lattice systems containing $M$ Majorana fermions per site. The Hilbert space for $N$ sites may be decomposed under the action of the O$(N)\times$O$(M)$ group, and the scars are the SO$(N)$ singlets. For any even $M$ there are two families of scars. One of them, which we call the $\eta$ states, is symmetric under the group O$(N)$. The other, the $\zeta$ states, has the SO$(N)$ invariance. For $M=4$, where our construction reduces to spin-$1/2$ fermions on a lattice with local interactions, the former family are the $N+1$ $\eta$-pairing states, while the latter are the $N+1$ states of maximum spin. We generalize this construction to $M>4$. For $M=6$ we exhibit explicit formulae for the scar states and use them to calculate the bipartite entanglement entropy analytically. For large $N$, it grows logarithmically with the sub-system size. We present a general argument that any group-invariant scars should have the entanglement entropy that is parametrically smaller than that of typical states. The energies of the scars we find are not equidistant in general but can be made so by choosing Hamiltonian parameters. For $M>6$ we find that with local Hamiltonians the scars typically have certain degeneracies. The scar spectrum can be made ergodic by adding a non-local interaction term. We derive the dimension of each scar family and show the scars could have a large contribution to the density of states for small $N$.

Large linear magnetoresistance (MR) in electron-injected p-type silicon at very low magnetic field is observed experimentally at room temperature. The large linear MR is induced in electron-dominated space-charge transport regime, where the magnetic field modulation of electron-to-hole density ratio controls the MR, as indicated by the magnetic field dependence of Hall coefficient in the silicon device. Contrary to the space-charge-induced MR effect in unipolar silicon device, where the large linear MR is inhomogeneity-induced, our results provide a different insight into the mechanism of large linear MR in non-magnetic semiconductors that is not based on the inhomogeneity model. This approach enables homogeneous semiconductors to exhibit large linear MR at low magnetic fields that until now has only been appearing in semiconductors with strong inhomogeneities.

The X-ray emission from quasars such as 3C273 is generally agreed to arise from Compton scattering of low energy seed photons by relativistic electrons in a relativistic jet oriented close to the line of sight. However there are a number of possible models for the origin of the seed photons. In Paper I (McHardy et al 1999) we showed that the X-ray and IR variability from 3C273 was highly correlated in 1997, with the IR flux leading the X-rays by ~0.75 +/- 0.25 days. The strong correlation, and lag, supports the Synchrotron Self-Compton (SSC) model, where the seed photons are synchroton photons from the jet itself. The previous correlation was based on one moderately well sampled flare and another poorly sampled flare, so the possibility of chance correlated variability exists. Here we report on further X-ray and IR observations of 3C273 which confirm the behaviour seen in Paper I. During a 2 week period of observations we see a flare of amplitude ~25%, lasting for ~5 days, showing a high correlation between IR and X-ray variations, with the X-rays lagging by ~1.45+/- 0.15 days. These observations were not scheduled at any special time, implying that the same mechanism - almost certainly SSC - dominates the X-ray emission on most occasions and that the structure of the emission region is similar in most small flares.

We propose a bilocal field theory for mesons in two dimensions obtained as a kind of non local bosonization of two dimensional QCD. Its semi-classical expansion is equivalent to the $1/N_c$ expansion of QCD. Using an ansatz we reduce the classical equation of motion of this theory in the baryon number one sector to a relativistic Hartree equation and solve it numerically. This (non topological) soliton is identified with the baryon.

We consider the problem of efficient recovery of the data stored in any individual node of a distributed storage system, from the rest of the nodes. Applications include handling failures and degraded reads. We measure efficiency in terms of the amount of data-read and the download required. To minimize the download, we focus on the minimum bandwidth setting of the 'regenerating codes' model for distributed storage. Under this model, the system has a total of n nodes, and the data stored in any node must be (efficiently) recoverable from any d of the other (n-1) nodes. Lower bounds on the two metrics under this model were derived previously; it has also been shown that these bounds are achievable for the amount of data-read and download when d=n-1, and for the amount of download alone when d<n-1. In this paper, we complete this picture by proving the converse result, that when d<n-1, these lower bounds are strictly loose with respect to the amount of read required. The proof is information-theoretic, and hence applies to non-linear codes as well. We also show that under two (practical) relaxations of the problem setting, these lower bounds can be met for both read and download simultaneously.

The quasiparticle density of states (DOS), the energy gap, the superfluid density $\rho_s$, and the localization effect in the s- and d-wave superconductors with non-magnetic impurity in two dimensions (2D) are studied numerically. For strong (unitary) scatters, we find that it is the range of the scattering potential rather than the symmetry of the superconducting pairing which is more important in explaining the impurity dependences of the specific heat and the superconducting transition temperature in Zn doped YBCO. The localization length is longer in the d-wave superconducting state than in the normal state, even in the vicinity of the Fermi energy.

In this work a novel ships dataset is proposed consisting of more than 56k images of marine vessels collected by means of web-scraping and including 12 ship categories. A YOLOv3 single-stage detector based on Keras API is built on top of this dataset. Current results on four categories (cargo ship, naval ship, oil ship and tug ship) show Average Precision up to 96% for Intersection over Union (IoU) of 0.5 and satisfactory detection performances up to IoU of 0.8. A Data Analytics GUI service based on QT framework and Darknet-53 engine is also implemented in order to simplify the deployment process and analyse massive amount of images even for people without Data Science expertise.

We study the fractal dimension of a class of solenoidal attractors in dimensions greater or equal than 3, proving that if the contraction is sufficiently strong, the expansion is close to conformal and the attractor satisfy a geometrical condition of transversality between its components, then the Hausdorff and box-counting dimension of every stable section of the attractor have the same value, which corresponds to the zero of the topological pressure as in Bowen's formula. We also calculate the dimension of the attractor and prove that it is continuous in this class.

We discuss the results of the monitoring programs of the X-ray binaries with relativistic jets studies. We carried out a multi-frequency (1-30 GHz) daily monitoring of the radio flux variability of the microquasars SS433, GRS1915+105, V4641 Sgr and Cyg X-3 with RATAN-600 radio telescope during the recent sets in 2002-2006. We detected a lot of bright short-time flares from GRS 1915+105 which could be associated with active X-ray events. In 2004 we have detected two flares from V4641 Sgr, which followed after recurrent X-ray activity of the transient. From September 2005 to May 2006 and then in July we have daily measured flux densities from Cyg X-3. In January 2006 we detected a drop down of its quiescent fluxes (from 100 to ~20 mJy), then the 1Jy-flare was detected on 2 February 2006 after 18 days of quenched radio emission. The daily spectra of the flare in the maximum were flat from 2 to 110 GHz, using the quasi-simultaneous observations at 110 GHz with the RT45m telescope and the NMA millimeter array of the Nobeyama Radio Observatory in Japan. Several bright radio flaring events (1-15 Jy) followed during the continuing state of very variable and intensive 1-12 keV X-ray emission (~0.5 Crab), which was monitored in the RXTE ASM program. We discuss the various spectral and temporal characteristics of the light curves from the microquasars. Thus we conclude that monitoring of the flaring radio emission is a good tracer of jet activity X-ray binaries.

We describe a possible pathway to new magnetic materials with no conventional magnetic elements present. The substitution of Nitrogen for Oxygen in simple non magnetic oxides leads to holes in N 2$p$ states which form local magnetic moments. Because of the very large Hund's rule coupling of Nitrogen and O 2$p$ electrons and the rather extended spatial extend of the wave functions these materials are predicted to be ferromagnetic metals or small band gap insulators. Experimental studies support the theoretical calculations with regard to the basic electronic structure and the formation of local magnetic moments. It remains to be seen if these materials are magnetically ordered and if so below what temperature.

We considered a generic case of pre-transitional materials with static stress-generating defects, dislocations and coherent nano-precipitates, at temperatures close but above the starting temperature of martensitic transformation, Ms. Using the Phase Field Microelasticity theory and 3D simulation, we demonstrated that the local stress generated by these defects produces equilibrium nano-size martensitic embryos (MEs) in pre-transitional state, these embryos being orientation variants of martensite. This is a new type of equilibrium: the thermoelastic equilibrium between the MEs and parent phase in which the total volume of MEs and their size are equilibrium internal thermodynamic parameters. This thermoelastic equilibrium exists only in presence of the stress-generating defects. Cooling the pre-transitional state towards Ms or applying the external stimuli, stress or magnetic field, results in a shift of the thermoelastic equilibrium provided by a reversible anhysteretic growth of MEs that results in a giant ME-generated macroscopic strain. In particular, this effect can be associated with the diffuse phase transformations observed in some ferroelectrics above the Curie point. It is shown that the ME-generated strain is giant and describes a superelasticity if the applied field is stress. It describes a super magnetostriction if the martensite (or austenite) are ferromagnetic and the applied field is a magnetic field. In general, the material with defects can be a multiferroic with a giant multiferroic response if the parent and martensitic phase have different ferroic properties. Finally the ME-generated strain may explain or, at least, contribute to the Invar and Elinvar effects that are typically observed in pre-transitional austenite. The thermoelastic equilibrium and all these effects exist only if the interaction between the defects and MEs is infinite-range.

In this work we investigate the transition from kinks to compactons at high temperatures. We deal with a family of models, described by a real scalar field with standard kinematics, controlled by a single parameter, real and positive. The family of models supports kinklike solutions, and the solutions tend to become compact when the parameter increases to larger and larger values. We study the one-loop corrections at finite temperature, to see how the thermal effects add to the effective potential. The results suggest that the symmetry is restored at very high temperatures.

Natural language semantics has recently sought to combine the complementary strengths of formal and distributional approaches to meaning. More specifically, proposals have been put forward to augment formal semantic machinery with distributional meaning representations, thereby introducing the notion of semantic similarity into formal semantics, or to define distributional systems that aim to incorporate formal notions such as entailment and compositionality. However, given the fundamentally different 'representational currency' underlying formal and distributional approaches - models of the world versus linguistic co-occurrence - their unification has proven extremely difficult. Here, we define a Distributional Formal Semantics that integrates distributionality into a formal semantic system on the level of formal models. This approach offers probabilistic, distributed meaning representations that are also inherently compositional, and that naturally capture fundamental semantic notions such as quantification and entailment. Furthermore, we show how the probabilistic nature of these representations allows for probabilistic inference, and how the information-theoretic notion of "information" (measured in terms of Entropy and Surprisal) naturally follows from it. Finally, we illustrate how meaning representations can be derived incrementally from linguistic input using a recurrent neural network model, and how the resultant incremental semantic construction procedure intuitively captures key semantic phenomena, including negation, presupposition, and anaphoricity.

In partially observed environments, it can be useful for a human to provide the robot with declarative information that represents probabilistic relational constraints on properties of objects in the world, augmenting the robot's sensory observations. For instance, a robot tasked with a search-and-rescue mission may be informed by the human that two victims are probably in the same room. An important question arises: how should we represent the robot's internal knowledge so that this information is correctly processed and combined with raw sensory information? In this paper, we provide an efficient belief state representation that dynamically selects an appropriate factoring, combining aspects of the belief when they are correlated through information and separating them when they are not. This strategy works in open domains, in which the set of possible objects is not known in advance, and provides significant improvements in inference time over a static factoring, leading to more efficient planning for complex partially observed tasks. We validate our approach experimentally in two open-domain planning problems: a 2D discrete gridworld task and a 3D continuous cooking task.

A new renormalization scheme is defined for fermion bilinears in QCD at non vanishing quark masses. This new scheme, denoted RI/mSMOM, preserves the benefits of the nonexceptional momenta introduced in the RI/SMOM scheme, and allows a definition of renormalized composite fields away from the chiral limit. Some properties of the scheme are investigated by performing explicit one-loop computation in dimensional regularization.

We develop an algorithm for the motion and task planning of a system comprised of multiple robots and unactuated objects under tasks expressed as Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) constraints. The robots and objects evolve subject to uncertain dynamics in an obstacle-cluttered environment. The key part of the proposed solution is the intelligent construction of a coupled transition system that encodes the motion and tasks of the robots and the objects. We achieve such a construction by designing appropriate adaptive control protocols in the lower level, which guarantee the safe robot navigation/object transportation in the environment while compensating for the dynamic uncertainties. The transition system is efficiently interfaced with the temporal logic specification via a sampling-based algorithm to output a discrete path as a sequence of synchronized actions of the robots; such actions satisfy the robots' as well as the objects' specifications. The robots execute this discrete path by using the derived low level control protocol. Simulation results verify the proposed framework.

We investigate the relevance of Eisenstein series for representing certain $G(Z)$-invariant string theory amplitudes which receive corrections from BPS states only. $G(Z)$ may stand for any of the mapping class, T-duality and U-duality groups $Sl(d,Z)$, $SO(d,d,Z)$ or $E_{d+1(d+1)}(Z)$ respectively. Using $G(Z)$-invariant mass formulae, we construct invariant modular functions on the symmetric space $K\backslash G(R)$ of non-compact type, with $K$ the maximal compact subgroup of $G(R)$, that generalize the standard non-holomorphic Eisenstein series arising in harmonic analysis on the fundamental domain of the Poincar\'e upper half-plane. Comparing the asymptotics and eigenvalues of the Eisenstein series under second order differential operators with quantities arising in one- and $g$-loop string amplitudes, we obtain a manifestly T-duality invariant representation of the latter, conjecture their non-perturbative U-duality invariant extension, and analyze the resulting non-perturbative effects. This includes the $R^4$ and $R^4 H^{4g-4}$ couplings in toroidal compactifications of M-theory to any dimension $D\geq 4$ and $D\geq 6$ respectively.
