The KM3NeT neutrino telescope will be composed of many optical modules, each of them containing 31 (3") photomultipliers, connected to a Central Logic Board. The Central Logic Board integrates Time to Digital Converters that measure Time Over Threshold of the photomulti- pliers signals while White Rabbit is used for the optical modules time synchronization. Auxiliary boards have also been designed and built in order to test and extend the performance of the Cen- tral Logic Board. The Central Logic Board, as well as the auxiliary boards, will be presented by focusing on the design consideration, prototyping issues and tests.

Appearance of cosmic strings in the early Universe is a common manifestation of new physics typically linked to some high energy scale. In this paper, we discuss a different situation, where a model underlying cosmic string formation is approximately scale free. String tension is naturally related to the square of the temperature of the hot primordial plasma in such a setting, and hence decreases with (cosmic) time. With gravitational backreaction neglected, the dynamics of these melting strings in an expanding Universe is equivalent to the dynamics of constant tension strings in a Minkowski spacetime. We provide an estimate for the emission of gravitational waves from string loops. Contrary to the standard case, the resulting spectrum is markedly non-flat and has a characteristic falloff at frequencies below the peak one. The peak frequency is defined by the underlying model and lies in the range accessible by the future detectors for very weak couplings involved.

The quasi-one-dimensional chiral charge density wave (CDW) material (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I has been recently predicted to host Kramers-Weyl (KW) fermions which should exist in the vicinity of high symmetry points in the Brillouin zone in chiral materials with strong spin-orbit coupling. However, direct spectroscopic evidence of KW fermions is limited. Here we use helicity-dependent laser-based angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) in conjunction with tight-binding and first-principles calculations to identify KW fermions in (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I. We find that topological and symmetry considerations place distinct constraints on the (pseudo-) spin texture and the observed spectra around a KW node. We further reveal an interplay between the spin texture around the chiral KW node and the onset of CDW order in (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I. Our findings highlight the unique topological nature of (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I and provide a pathway for identifying KW fermions in other chiral materials.

We study the chiral expansion of meson masses and decay constants using a chiral Lagrangian that was constructed previously based on the hadrogenesis conjecture. The one-loop self energies of the Goldstone bosons and vector mesons are evaluated. It is illustrated that a renormalizeable effective field theory arises once specific conditions on the low-energy constants are imposed. For the case where the hadrogenesis mass gap scale Lambda_{HG} is substantially larger than the chiral symmetry breaking scale Lambda_chi a partial summation scheme is required. All terms proportional to (M/\Lambda_\chi)^n can be summed by a suitable renormalization, where M is the chiral and large-N_c limit of the vector meson masses in QCD. The size of loop effects from vector meson degrees of freedom is illustrated for physical quarks masses. Naturally sized effects are observed that have significant impact on the chiral structure of low-energy QCD with three light flavours.

The fully charmed hadronic scalar molecules $\mathcal{M}_1=\eta_c \eta_c$ and $\mathcal{M}_2=\chi_{c0}\chi_{c0}$ are studied in the context of the QCD sum rule method. The masses $m$, $\widetilde{m}$ and current couplings $f$, $ \widetilde{f}$ of these states are calculated using the two-point sum rule approach. The obtained results $m=(6264 \pm 50)~\mathrm{MeV}$ and $ \widetilde{m}=(6954 \pm 50)~\mathrm{MeV}$ are employed to determine their decay channels. It is demonstrated that the processes $\mathcal{M}_1\to J/\psi J/\psi $ and $\mathcal{M}_1\to \eta _{c}\eta _{c}$ are kinematically allowed decay modes of $\mathcal{M}_1$. The molecule $\mathcal{M}_2$ decays to $ J/\psi J/\psi$, $J/\psi \psi^{\prime}$, $\eta _{c}\eta _{c}$, $\eta _{c}\eta _{c}(2S)$, $\eta _{c}\chi _{c1}(1P)$, and $\chi_{c0} \chi_{c0}$ mesons. The partial widths of all of these processes are evaluated by means of the three-point sum rule calculations, which are necessary to extract the strong couplings $g_i$ at vertices $\mathcal{M}_1J/\psi J/\psi $, $\mathcal{M} _1\eta _{c}\eta _{c}$, and others. Our estimates for the full widths of the molecules $\Gamma_{\mathcal{M}_1}=(320 \pm 72)~\mathrm{MeV}$ and $\Gamma _{ \mathcal{M}_2}=(138 \pm 18)~\mathrm{MeV}$, as well as their masses are compared with parameters of the scalar $X$ resonances discovered by the LHCb-ATLAS-CMS Collaborations in the di-$J/\psi$ and $J/\psi\psi^{\prime}$ invariant mass distributions. We argue that the molecule $\mathcal{M}_1$ can be considered as a real candidate to the scalar resonance $X(6200)$. The structure $\mathcal{M}_2$ may be interpreted as the resonance $X(6900)$ or treated in conjunction with a scalar tetraquark as one of its components.

Dynamics of passing-stars-perturbed binary star systems

In this work, we investigate the dynamical effects of a sequence of close encounters over 200 Myr varying in the interval of 10000 -- 100000 au between a binary star system and passing stars with masses ranging from 0.1$M_{\odot}$ to 10$M_{\odot}$. We focus on binaries consisting of two Sun-like stars with various orbital separations $a_{\scriptscriptstyle 0}$ from 50 au to 200 au initially on circular-planar orbits. We treat the problem statistically since each sequence is cloned 1000 times. Our study shows that orbits of binaries initially at $a_{\scriptscriptstyle 0}$ = 50 au will slightly be perturbed by each close encounter and exhibit a small deviation in eccentricity (+0.03) and in periapsis distance (+1 and -2 au) around the mean value. However increasing $a_{\scriptscriptstyle 0}$ will drastically increase these variances: up to +0.45 in eccentricity and between +63 au and -106 au in periapsis, leading to a higher rate of disrupted binaries up to 50% after the sequence of close encounters. Even though the secondary star can remain bound to the primary, $\sim$20% of the final orbits will have inclinations greater than 10$^{\circ}$. As planetary formation already takes place when stars are still members of their birth cluster, we show that the variances in eccentricity and periapsis distance of Jupiter- and Saturn-like planets will inversely decrease with $a_{\scriptscriptstyle 0}$ after successive fly-bys. This leads to higher ejection rate at $a_{\scriptscriptstyle 0}$ = 50 au but to a higher extent for Saturn-likes (60%) as those planets' apoapsis distances cross the critical stability distance for such binary separation.

Modern cryptocurrencies exploit decentralised blockchains to record a public and unalterable history of transactions. Besides transactions, further information is stored for different, and often undisclosed, purposes, making the blockchains a rich and increasingly growing source of valuable information, in part of difficult interpretation. Many data analytics have been developed, mostly based on specifically designed and ad-hoc engineered approaches. We propose a general-purpose framework, seamlessly supporting data analytics on both Bitcoin and Ethereum - currently the two most prominent cryptocurrencies. Such a framework allows us to integrate relevant blockchain data with data from other sources, and to organise them in a database, either SQL or NoSQL. Our framework is released as an open-source Scala library. We illustrate the distinguishing features of our approach on a set of significant use cases, which allow us to empirically compare ours to other competing proposals, and evaluate the impact of the database choice on scalability.

We point out a basic ambiguity in the $p \to 0$ limit of the connected propagator in a spontaneously broken phase. This may represent an indication that the conventional singlet Higgs boson, rather than being a purely massive field, might have a gap-less branch. This would dominate the energy spectrum for ${\bf{p}} \to 0$ and give rise to a very weak, long-range force. The natural interpretation is in terms of density fluctuations of the `Higgs condensate': in the region of very long wavelengths, infinitely larger than the Fermi scale, it cannot be treated as a purely classical c-number field.

Living cells use readout molecules to record the state of receptor proteins, similar to measurements or copies in typical computational devices. But is this analogy rigorous? Can cells be optimally efficient, and if not, why? We show that, as in computation, a canonical biochemical readout network generates correlations; extracting no work from these correlations sets a lower bound on dissipation. For general input, the biochemical network cannot reach this bound, even with arbitrarily slow reactions or weak thermodynamic driving. It faces an accuracy-dissipation trade-off that is qualitatively distinct from and worse than implied by the bound, and more complex steady-state copy processes cannot perform better. Nonetheless, the cost remains close to the thermodynamic bound unless accuracy is extremely high. Additionally, we show that biomolecular reactions could be used in thermodynamically optimal devices under exogenous manipulation of chemical fuels, suggesting an experimental system for testing computational thermodynamics.

We present a new scheme to detect the quantum shot noise in coupled mesoscopic systems. By applying the noise thermometry to the capacitively coupled quantum point contacts (QPCs) we prove that the noise temperature of one QPC is in perfect proportion to that of the other QPC which is driven to non-equilibrium to generate quantum shot noise. We also found an unexpected effect that the noise in the source QPC is remarkably suppressed possibly due to the cooling effect by the detector QPC.

Multiband observations on the type Ia supernova remnant SN 1006 indicate peculiar properties in its morphologies of emission in the radio, optical and X-ray bands. In the hard X-rays, the remnant is bilateral with two opposite bright limbs with prominent protrusions. Moreover, a filament has been detected at the radio, optical and soft X-ray wavelengthes. The reason for these peculiar features in the morphologies of the remnant is investigated using 3D HD simulations. With the assumption that the supernova ejecta is evolved in the ambient medium with a density discontinuity, the radius of the remnant's boundary is smaller in the tenuous medium, and the shell consists of two hemispheres with different radiuses. Along particular line of sights, protrusions appear on the periphery of the remnants since the emission from the edge of the hemisphere with a larger radius is located outside that from the shell of the small hemisphere. Furthermore, the northwest filament of SN 1006 arises as a result of the intersection of the line of sight and the shocked material near the edges of the two hemispheres. It can be concluded that the features that the protrusions on the northeast and southwest limbs and the northwest filament in the morphologies of SN 1006 can be reproduced as the remnants interacting with the medium with a density discontinuity.

The dwarf stars in the 26 year period binary alpha Com were predicted to eclipse each other in early 2015. That prediction was based on an orbit model made with over 600 astrometric observations using micrometers, speckle interferometry, and long baseline optical interferometry. Unfortunately, it has been realized recently that the position angle measurements for three of the observations from ~100 years ago were in error by 180 degrees, which skewed the orbital fit. The eclipse was likely 2 months earlier than predicted, at which point the system was low on the horizon at sunrise.

Primordial, non-Gaussian perturbations can generate scale-dependent bias in the galaxy distribution. This in turn will modify correlations between galaxy positions and peculiar velocities at late times, since peculiar velocities reflect the underlying matter distribution, whereas galaxies are a biased tracer of the same. We study this effect, and show that non-Gaussianity can be constrained by comparing the observed peculiar velocity field to a model velocity field reconstructed from the galaxy density field assuming linear bias. The amplitude of the spatial correlations in the residual map obtained after subtracting one velocity field from the other is directly proportional to the strength of the primordial non-Gaussianity. We construct the corresponding likelihood function use it to constrain the amplitude of the linear flow $\beta$ and the amplitude of local non-Gaussianity $f^{\rm NL}_{\rm local}$. Applying our method to two observational data sets, the Type-Ia supernovae (A1SN) and Spiral Field \textit{I}-band (SFI++) catalogues, we obtain constraints on the linear flow parameter consistent with the values derived previously assuming Gaussianity. The marginalised 1-D distribution of $|f^{\rm NL}_{\rm local}|$ does not show strong evidence for non-zero $f^{\rm NL}_{\rm local}$, and we set 95% upper limits $|f^{\rm NL}_{\rm local}|<51.4$ from A1SN and $|f^{\rm NL}_{\rm local}|<92.6$ from SFI++. These limits on $f^{\rm NL}_{\rm local}$ are as tight as any set by previous large-scale structure measurements. Our method can be applied to any survey with radial velocities and density field data, and provides an independent check of recent CMB constraints on $f^{\rm NL}_{\rm local}$, extending these to smaller spatial scales.

We obtain an upper bound on the time available for quantum computation for a given quantum computer and decohering environment with quantum error correction implemented. First, we derive an explicit quantum evolution operator for the logical qubits and show that it has the same form as that for the physical qubits but with a reduced coupling strength to the environment. Using this evolution operator, we find the trace distance between the real and ideal states of the logical qubits in two cases. For a super-Ohmic bath, the trace distance saturates, while for Ohmic or sub-Ohmic baths, there is a finite time before the trace distance exceeds a value set by the user.

A practical implementation of a quantum computer requires robust qubits that are protected against their noisy environment. Dynamical decoupling techniques have been successfully used in the past to offer protected high-fidelity gate operations in negatively-charged Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV-) centers in diamond, albeit under specific conditions with the intrinsic nitrogen nuclear spin initialised. In this work, we show how the SMART protocol, an extension of the dressed-qubit concept, can be implemented for continuous protection to offer Clifford gate fidelities compatible with fault-tolerant schemes, whilst prolonging the coherence time of a single NV- qubit at room temperature. We show an improvement in the average Clifford gate fidelity from $0.940\pm0.005$ for the bare qubit to $0.993\pm0.002$ for the SMART qubit, with the nitrogen nuclear spin in a random orientation. We further show a $\gtrsim$ 30 times improvement in the qubit coherence times compared to the bare qubit.

There is a commutative algebra of differential-difference operators, acting on polynomials on R_2, associated with the reflection group B2. This paper presents an integral transform which intertwines this algebra, allowing one free parameter, with the algebra of partial derivatives. The method of proof depends on properties of a certain class of balanced terminating hypergeometric series of 4F3-type. These properties are in the form of recurrence and contiguity relations and are proved herein.

In this paper we construct preimage attack on the truncated variant of the MD4 hash function. Specifically, we study the MD4-39 function defined by the first 39 steps of the MD4 algorithm. We suggest a new attack on MD4-39, which develops the ideas proposed by H. Dobbertin in 1998. Namely, the special relaxation constraints are introduced in order to simplify the equations corresponding to the problem of finding a preimage for an arbitrary MD4-39 hash value. The equations supplemented with the relaxation constraints are then reduced to the Boolean Satisfiability Problem (SAT) and solved using the state-of-the-art SAT solvers. We show that the effectiveness of a set of relaxation constraints can be evaluated using the black-box function of a special kind. Thus, we suggest automatic method of relaxation constraints generation by applying the black-box optimization to this function. The proposed method made it possible to find new relaxation constraints that contribute to a SAT-based preimage attack on MD4-39 which significantly outperforms the competition.

Consequences of minimal seesaw with complex $\mu\tau$ antisymmetry of neutrinos

We propose a complex extension of $\mu\tau$ permutation antisymmetry in the neutrino Majorana matrix $M_\nu$. The latter can be realized for the Lagrangian by appropriate CP transformations on the neutrino fields. The resultant form of $M_\nu$ is shown to be simply related to that with a complex (CP) extension of $\mu\tau$ permutation symmetry, with identical phenomenological consequences, though their group theoretic origins are quite different. We investigate those consequences in detail for the minimal seesaw induced by two strongly hierarchical right-chiral neutrinos $N_1$ and $N_2$ with the result that the Dirac phase is maximal while the two Majorana phases are either 0 or $\pi$. We further provide an uptodate discussion of the $\beta\beta0\nu$ process vis-a-vis ongoing and forthcoming experiments. Finally, a thorough treatment is given of baryogenesis via leptogenesis in this scenario, primarily with the assumption that the lepton asymmetry produced by the decays of $N_1$ only matters here with the asymmetry produced by $N_2$ being washed out. Tight upper and lower bounds on the mass of $N_1$ are obtained from the constraint of obtaining the correct observed range of the baryon asymmetry parameter and the role played by $N_2$ is elucidated thereafter. The mildly hierarchical right-chiral neutrino case (including the quasidegenerate possibility) is discussed in an Appendix.

A historical law of large numbers for the Marcus Lushnikov process

The Marcus-Lushnikov process is a finite stochastic particle system, in which each particle is entirely characterized by its mass. Each pair of particles with masses $x$ and $y$ merges into a single particle at a given rate $K(x,y)$. Under certain assumptions, this process converges to the solution to Smoluchowski equation, as the number of particles increases to infinity. The Marcus-Lushnikov process gives at each time the distribution of masses of the particles present in the system, but does not retain the history of formation of the particles. In this paper, we set up a historical analogue of the Marcus-Lushnikov process (built according the rules of construction of the usual Markov-Lushnikov process) each time giving what we call the historical tree of a particle. The historical tree of a particle present in the Marcus-Lushnikov process at a given time $t$ encodes information about the times and masses of the coagulation events that have formed that particle. We prove a law of large numbers for the empirical distribution of such historical trees. The limit is a natural measure on trees which is constructed from a solution to Smoluchowski coagulation equation.

We construct martingale observables for systems of multiple SLE curves by applying screening techniques within the CFT framework recently developed by Kang and Makarov, extended to admit multiple SLEs. We illustrate this approach by rigorously establishing explicit expressions for the Green's function and Schramm's formula in the case of two curves growing towards infinity. In the special case when the curves are `fused' and start at the same point, some of the formulas we prove were predicted in the physics literature.

This complex is equivalent to a spanning-tree complex whose differential is explicit modulo a sign ambiguity coming from the need to choose a sign assignment in the definition of odd Khovanov homology.

Learning to Drive Using Sparse Imitation Reinforcement Learning

http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/
In this paper, we propose Sparse Imitation Reinforcement Learning (SIRL), a hybrid end-to-end control policy that combines the sparse expert driving knowledge with reinforcement learning (RL) policy for autonomous driving (AD) task in CARLA simulation environment. The sparse expert is designed based on hand-crafted rules which is suboptimal but provides a risk-averse strategy by enforcing experience for critical scenarios such as pedestrian and vehicle avoidance, and traffic light detection. As it has been demonstrated, training a RL agent from scratch is data-inefficient and time consuming particularly for the urban driving task, due to the complexity of situations stemming from the vast size of state space. Our SIRL strategy provides a solution to solve these problems by fusing the output distribution of the sparse expert policy and the RL policy to generate a composite driving policy. With the guidance of the sparse expert during the early training stage, SIRL strategy accelerates the training process and keeps the RL exploration from causing a catastrophe outcome, and ensures safe exploration. To some extent, the SIRL agent is imitating the driving expert's behavior. At the same time, it continuously gains knowledge during training therefore it keeps making improvement beyond the sparse expert, and can surpass both the sparse expert and a traditional RL agent. We experimentally validate the efficacy of proposed SIRL approach in a complex urban scenario within the CARLA simulator. Besides, we compare the SIRL agent's performance for risk-averse exploration and high learning efficiency with the traditional RL approach. We additionally demonstrate the SIRL agent's generalization ability to transfer the driving skill to unseen environment.

Text classification approaches have usually required task-specific model architectures and huge labeled datasets. Recently, thanks to the rise of text-based transfer learning techniques, it is possible to pre-train a language model in an unsupervised manner and leverage them to perform effective on downstream tasks. In this work we focus on Japanese and show the potential use of transfer learning techniques in text classification. Specifically, we perform binary and multi-class sentiment classification on the Rakuten product review and Yahoo movie review datasets. We show that transfer learning-based approaches perform better than task-specific models trained on 3 times as much data. Furthermore, these approaches perform just as well for language modeling pre-trained on only 1/30 of the data. We release our pre-trained models and code as open source.

Devasthal Optical Telescope Integral Field Spectrograph (DOTIFS) is a new multi-object Integral Field Spectrograph (IFS) being designed and fabricated by the Inter-University Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune, India, for the Cassegrain side port of the 3.6m Devasthal Optical Telescope, (DOT) being constructed by the Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), Nainital. It is mainly designed to study the physics and kinematics of the ionized gas, star formation and H II regions in the nearby galaxies. It is a novel instrument in terms of multi-IFU, built in deployment system, and high throughput. It consists of one magnifier, 16 integral field units (IFUs), and 8 spectrographs. Each IFU is comprised of a microlens array and optical fibers and has 7.4'' x 8.7'' field of view with 144 spaxel elements, each sampling 0.8'' hexagonal aperture. The IFUs can be distributed on the telescope side port over an 8' diameter focal plane by the deployment system. Optical fibers deliver light from the IFUs to the spectrographs. Eight identical, all refractive, dedicated spectrographs will produce 2,304 R~1800 spectra over 370-740nm wavelength range with a single exposure. Volume Phase Holographic gratings are chosen to make smaller optics and get high throughput. The total throughput of the instrument including the telescope is predicted as 27.5% on average. Observing techniques, data simulator and reduction software are also under development. Currently, conceptual and baseline design review has been done. Some of the components have already been procured. The instrument is expected to see its first light in 2016.

3D Gated Recurrent Fusion for Semantic Scene Completion

This paper tackles the problem of data fusion in the semantic scene completion (SSC) task, which can simultaneously deal with semantic labeling and scene completion. RGB images contain texture details of the object(s) which are vital for semantic scene understanding. Meanwhile, depth images capture geometric clues of high relevance for shape completion. Using both RGB and depth images can further boost the accuracy of SSC over employing one modality in isolation. We propose a 3D gated recurrent fusion network (GRFNet), which learns to adaptively select and fuse the relevant information from depth and RGB by making use of the gate and memory modules. Based on the single-stage fusion, we further propose a multi-stage fusion strategy, which could model the correlations among different stages within the network. Extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets demonstrate the superior performance and the effectiveness of the proposed GRFNet for data fusion in SSC. Code will be made available.

In contemporary magnetic confinement devices, the density distribution is sensed with interferometers and actuated with feedback controlled gas injection and open-loop pellet injection. This is at variance with the density control for ITER and DEMO, that will depend mainly on pellet injection as an actuator in feed-back control. This paper presents recent developments in state estimation and control of the electron density profile for ITER using relevant sensors and actuators. As a first step, Thomson scattering is included in an existing dynamic state observer. Second, model predictive control is developed as a strategy to regulate the density profile while avoiding limits associated with the total density (Greenwald limit) or gradients in the density distribution (e.g. neo-classical impurity transport). Simulations show that high quality density profile estimation can be achieved with Thomson Scattering and that the controller is capable of regulating the distribution as desired.

Maps have played an important role in epidemiology and public health since the beginnings of these disciplines. With the advent of geographical information systems and advanced information visualization techniques, interactive maps have become essential tools for the analysis of geographical patterns of disease incidence and prevalence, as well as communication of public health knowledge, as dramatically illustrated by the proliferation of web-based maps and disease surveillance ``dashboards'' during the COVID-19 pandemic. While such interactive maps are usually effective in supporting static spatial analysis, support for spatial epidemiological visualization and modelling involving distributed and dynamic data sources, and support for analysis of temporal aspects of disease spread have proved more challenging. Combining these two aspects can be crucial in applications of interactive maps in epidemiology and public health work. In this paper, we discuss these issues in the context of support for disease surveillance in remote regions, including tools for distributed data collection, simulation and analysis, and enabling multidisciplinary collaboration.

Dark matter (DM) interacting only gravitationally with the standard model could have been produced in the early universe by Hawking evaporation of primordial black holes (PBH). This mechanism is viable in a large range of DM mass, spanning up to the Planck scale. However, DM is also unavoidably produced by the irreducible UV gravitational freeze-in. We show that the latter mechanism sets strong bounds, excluding large regions of the parameter space favored by PBH production.

Conditions for the emergence of a statistical relationship between $T_r$, the chaotic transport (recurrence) time, and $T_L$, the local Lyapunov time (the inverse of the numerically measured largest Lyapunov characteristic exponent), are considered for the motion inside the chaotic layer around the separatrix of a nonlinear resonance. When numerical values of the Lyapunov exponents are measured on a time interval not greater than $T_r$, the relationship is shown to resemble the quadratic one. This tentatively explains numerical results presented in the literature.

Blocked rank-revealing QR factorizations: How randomized sampling can be used to avoid single-vector pivoting

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Given a matrix $A$ of size $m\times n$, the manuscript describes a algorithm for computing a QR factorization $AP=QR$ where $P$ is a permutation matrix, $Q$ is orthonormal, and $R$ is upper triangular. The algorithm is blocked, to allow it to be implemented efficiently. The need for single vector pivoting in classical algorithms for computing QR factorizations is avoided by the use of randomized sampling to find blocks of pivot vectors at once. The advantage of blocking becomes particularly pronounced when $A$ is very large, and possibly stored out-of-core, or on a distributed memory machine. The manuscript also describes a generalization of the QR factorization that allows $P$ to be a general orthonormal matrix. In this setting, one can at moderate cost compute a \textit{rank-revealing} factorization where the mass of $R$ is concentrated to the diagonal entries. Moreover, the diagonal entries of $R$ closely approximate the singular values of $A$. The algorithms described have asymptotic flop count $O(m\,n\,\min(m,n))$, just like classical deterministic methods. The scaling constant is slightly higher than those of classical techniques, but this is more than made up for by reduced communication and the ability to block the computation.

These varieties have applications as key varieties in constructing other varieties, including local models of Mori flips of Type A.

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) spread globally in early 2020, causing the world to face an existential health crisis. Automated detection of lung infections from computed tomography (CT) images offers a great potential to augment the traditional healthcare strategy for tackling COVID-19. However, segmenting infected regions from CT slices faces several challenges, including high variation in infection characteristics, and low intensity contrast between infections and normal tissues. Further, collecting a large amount of data is impractical within a short time period, inhibiting the training of a deep model. To address these challenges, a novel COVID-19 Lung Infection Segmentation Deep Network (Inf-Net) is proposed to automatically identify infected regions from chest CT slices. In our Inf-Net, a parallel partial decoder is used to aggregate the high-level features and generate a global map. Then, the implicit reverse attention and explicit edge-attention are utilized to model the boundaries and enhance the representations. Moreover, to alleviate the shortage of labeled data, we present a semi-supervised segmentation framework based on a randomly selected propagation strategy, which only requires a few labeled images and leverages primarily unlabeled data. Our semi-supervised framework can improve the learning ability and achieve a higher performance. Extensive experiments on our COVID-SemiSeg and real CT volumes demonstrate that the proposed Inf-Net outperforms most cutting-edge segmentation models and advances the state-of-the-art performance.

This paper presents a neural network to estimate a detailed depth map of the foreground human in a single RGB image. The result captures geometry details such as cloth wrinkles, which are important in visualization applications. To achieve this goal, we separate the depth map into a smooth base shape and a residual detail shape and design a network with two branches to regress them respectively. We design a training strategy to ensure both base and detail shapes can be faithfully learned by the corresponding network branches. Furthermore, we introduce a novel network layer to fuse a rough depth map and surface normals to further improve the final result. Quantitative comparison with fused `ground truth' captured by real depth cameras and qualitative examples on unconstrained Internet images demonstrate the strength of the proposed method. The code is available at https://github.com/sfu-gruvi-3dv/deep_human.

Sophisticated gated recurrent neural network architectures like LSTMs and GRUs have been shown to be highly effective in a myriad of applications. We develop an un-gated unit, the statistical recurrent unit (SRU), that is able to learn long term dependencies in data by only keeping moving averages of statistics. The SRU's architecture is simple, un-gated, and contains a comparable number of parameters to LSTMs; yet, SRUs perform favorably to more sophisticated LSTM and GRU alternatives, often outperforming one or both in various tasks. We show the efficacy of SRUs as compared to LSTMs and GRUs in an unbiased manner by optimizing respective architectures' hyperparameters in a Bayesian optimization scheme for both synthetic and real-world tasks.

In this paper paired comparison models with stochastic background are investigated. We focus on the models which allow three options for choice and the parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood method. The existence and uniqueness of the estimator is a key issue of the evaluation. In the case of two options, a necessary and sufficient condition is given by Ford in the Bradley-Terry model. We generalize this statement for the set of strictly log-concave distribution. Although in the case of three options necessary and sufficient condition is not known, there are two different sufficient conditions which are formulated in the literature. In this paper we generalize them, moreover we compare these conditions. Their capacities to indicate the existence of the maximum are analyzed by a large number of computer simulations. These simulations support that the new condition indicates the existence of the maximum much more frequently then the previously known ones,

On unitarity of some representatations of classical p-adic groups I

In the case of p-adic general linear groups, each irreducible representation is parabolically induced by a tensor product of irreducible representations supported by cuspidal lines. One gets in this way a parameterization of the irreducible representations of p-adic general linear groups by irreducible representations supported by cuspidal lines. It is obvious that in this correspondence an irreducible representation of a p-adic general linear group is unitarizable if and only if all the corresponding irreducible representations supported by cuspidal lines are unitarizable. C. Jantzen has defined an analogue of such correspondence for irreducible representations of classical p-adic groups. It would have interesting consequences if one would know that the unitarizability is also preserved in this case. A purpose of this paper and its sequel, is to give some very limited support for possibility of such preservation of the unitarizability. More precisely, we show that if we have an irreducible unitarizable representation $\pi$ of a classical p-adic group whose one attached representation $\pi_L$ supported by a cuspidal line $L$ has the same infinitesimal character as the generalized Steinberg representation supported by that cuspidal line, then $\pi_L$ is unitarizable.

Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is a critical technology that enables autonomous robots to be aware of their surrounding environment. With the development of deep learning, SLAM systems can achieve a higher level of perception of the environment, including the semantic and text levels. However, current works are limited in their ability to achieve a natural-language level of perception of the world. To address this limitation, we propose LP-SLAM, the first language-perceptive SLAM system that leverages large language models (LLMs). LP-SLAM has two major features: (a) it can detect text in the scene and determine whether it represents a landmark to be stored during the tracking and mapping phase, and (b) it can understand natural language input from humans and provide guidance based on the generated map. We illustrated three usages of the LLM in the system including text cluster, landmark judgment, and natural language navigation. Our proposed system represents an advancement in the field of LLMs based SLAM and opens up new possibilities for autonomous robots to interact with their environment in a more natural and intuitive way.

We explore the effective theory of an axion in a gauged baryon number symmetry extension of the Standard Model (SM), where the axion is realized from a Dine-Fischler-Srednicki-Zhitnitsky (DFSZ) model construction. Integrating out the anomalons realizes a pattern of effective Wilson coefficients reflecting the factorization between the anomalous Peccei-Quinn and gauged baryon number symmetries. We construct and analyze the chiral transformation invariance of the axion effective theory, accounting for possible flavor-violating axion couplings. We calculate and study the unique phenomenology of the axion and $Z'$ boson, and we present the current collider limits on these particles in the $\{m_{Z'}, g_B\}$, $\{m_a, G_{a \gamma \gamma} \}$, and $\{m_a, f_a^{-1}\}$ planes.

We explore observational constraints on a cosmological model with an interaction between dark energy (DE) and dark matter (DM), using a compilation of 15 measurements of the 2D BAO (i.e., transversal) scale in combination with Planck-CMB data, to explore the parametric space of a class of interacting DE models. We find that 2D BAO measurements can generate different observational constraints compared to the traditional approach of studying the matter clustering in the 3D BAO measurements. Contrary to the observations for the $\Lambda$CDM and IDE models when analyzed with Planck-CMB + 3D BAO data, we note that Planck-CMB + 2D BAO data favor high values of the Hubble constant $H_0$. From the joint analysis with Planck-CMB + 2D BAO + Gaussian prior on $H_0$, we find $H_0 = 73.4 \pm 0.88$ km/s/Mpc. We conclude that the $H_0$ tension is solved in the IDE model with strong statistical evidence (more than 3$\sigma$) for the IDE cosmologies.

We study continuity properties of stochastic game problems with respect to various topologies on information structures, defined as probability measures characterizing a game. We will establish continuity properties of the value function under total variation, setwise, and weak convergence of information structures. Our analysis reveals that the value function for a bounded game is continuous under total variation convergence of information structures in both zero-sum games and team problems. Continuity may fail to hold under setwise or weak convergence of information structures, however, the value function exhibits upper semicontinuity properties under weak and setwise convergence of information structures for team problems, and upper or lower semicontinuity properties hold for zero-sum games when such convergence is through a Blackwell-garbled sequence of information structures. If the individual channels are independent, fixed, and satisfy a total variation continuity condition, then the value functions are continuous under weak convergence of priors. We finally show that value functions for players may not be continuous even under total variation convergence of information structures in general non-zero-sum games.

The free Maxwell field theory is quantized in the Lorentz gauge on a two dimensional manifold $M$ with conformally flat background metric. It is shown that in this gauge the theory is equivalent, at least at the classical level, to a biharmonic version of the bosonic string theory. This equivalence is exploited in order to construct in details the propagator of the Maxwell field theory on $M$. The expectation values of the Wilson loops are computed. A trivial result is obtained confirming in the Lorentz gauge previous calculations. Finally the interacting case is briefly discussed taking the Schwinger model as an example. The two and three point functions of the Schwinger model are explicitly derived at the lowest order on a Riemann surface.

We present the results of a study to optimize the principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm for planet detection, a new algorithm complementing ADI and LOCI for increasing the contrast achievable next to a bright star. The stellar PSF is constructed by removing linear combinations of principal components, allowing the flux from an extrasolar planet to shine through. The number of principal components used determines how well the stellar PSF is globally modelled. Using more principal components may decrease the number of speckles in the final image, but also increases the background noise. We apply PCA to Fomalhaut VLT NaCo images acquired at 4.05 micron with an apodized phase plate. We do not detect any companions, with a model dependent upper mass limit of 13-18 M_Jup from 4-10 AU. PCA achieves greater sensitivity than the LOCI algorithm for the Fomalhaut coronagraphic data by up to 1 magnitude. We make several adaptations to the PCA code and determine which of these prove the most effective at maximizing the signal-to-noise from a planet very close to its parent star. We demonstrate that optimizing the number of principal components used in PCA proves most effective for pulling out a planet signal.

Models of eternal inflation predict a stochastic self-similar geometry of the universe at very large scales and allow existence of points that never thermalize. I explore the fractal geometry of the resulting spacetime, using coordinate-independent quantities. The formalism of stochastic inflation can be used to obtain the fractal dimension of the set of eternally inflating points (the ``eternal fractal''). I also derive a nonlinear branching diffusion equation describing global properties of the eternal set and the probability to realize eternal inflation. I show gauge invariance of the condition for presence of eternal inflation. Finally, I consider the question of whether all thermalized regions merge into one connected domain. Fractal dimension of the eternal set provides a (weak) sufficient condition for merging.

Very recently, the CDF Collaboration reported the first non-zero measurement of the $B_s \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ branching fraction. The central value of this measurement is more than 5 times of that predicted in the Standard Model and, if confirmed, would indicate the existence of new physics. We consider the implications of this measurement for the specific case of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), and find that it requires large values of $\tan \beta$ ($\gsim 30$) and favors moderate values for the masses of the heavy higgs bosons ($m_A, m_H \sim 300-1200$ GeV). We also discuss the implications of this measurement for neutralino dark matter, finding that (within the MSSM) regions of parameter space in which the lightest neutralino can efficiently annihilate through the pseudoscalar higgs resonance (the $A$-funnel region) are favored.

By programming both the data plane and the control plane, network operators can customize their networks based on their needs, regardless of the hardware manufacturer. Control plane programming, a major component of the SDN (Software Defined Network) concept, has been developed for more than 10 years and successfully implemented in real networks. Efforts to develop reconfigurable data planes and high-level network programming languages make it truly possible to program data planes. Therefore, the programmable data planes and SDNs offer great flexibility in network customization, allowing many innovations to be introduced on the network. The general focus of research on the data plane is data-plane abstractions, languages and compilers, data plane algorithms, and applications. This paper outlines some emerging applications on the data plane and offers opportunities for further improvement and optimization.

Without a specific functional context, non-functional requirements can only be approached as cross-cutting concerns and treated uniformly across all features of an application. This neglects, however, the heterogeneity of non-functional requirements that arises from stakeholder interests and the distinct functional scopes of software systems, which mutually influence how these non-functional requirements have to be satisfied. Earlier studies showed that the different types and objectives of non-functional requirements result in either vague or unbalanced specification of non-functional requirements. We propose a task analytic approach for eliciting and modeling user tasks to approach the stakeholders' pursued interests towards the software product. Stakeholder interests are structurally related to user tasks and each interest can be specified individually as a constraint of a specific user task. These constraints support DevOps teams with important guidance on how the interest of the stakeholder can be satisfied in the software lifecycle sufficiently. We propose a structured approach, intertwining task-oriented functional requirements with non-functional stakeholder interests to specify constraints on the level of user tasks. We also present results of a case study with domain experts, which reveals that our task modeling and interest-tailoring method increases the comprehensibility of non-functional requirements as well as their impact on the functional requirements, i.e., the users' tasks.

Dark matter (DM) occupies the majority of matter content in the universe and is probably cold (CDM). However, modifications to the standard CDM model may be required by the small-scale observations, and DM may be self-interacting (SIDM) or warm (WDM). Here we show that the diffractive lensing of gravitational waves (GWs) from binary black hole mergers by small halos ($\sim10^3-10^6M_\odot$; mini-halos) may serve as a clean probe to the nature of DM, free from the contamination of baryonic processes in the DM studies based on dwarf/satellite galaxies. The expected lensed GW signals and event rates resulting from CDM, WDM, and SIDM models are significantly different from each other, because of the differences in halo density profiles and abundances predicted by these models. We estimate the detection rates of such lensed GW events for a number of current and future GW detectors, such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatories (LIGO), the Einstein Telescope (ET), the Cosmic Explorer (CE), Gravitational-wave Lunar Observatory for Cosmology (GLOC), the Deci-Hertz Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (DECIGO), and the Big Bang Observer (BBO). We find that GLOC may detect one such events per year assuming the CDM model, DECIGO (BBO) may detect more than several (hundreds of) such events per year, by assuming the CDM, WDM (with mass $>30$\,keV) or SIDM model, suggesting that the DM nature may be strongly constrained by DECIGO and BBO via the detection of diffractive lensed GW events by mini-halos. Other GW detectors are unlikely to detect a significant number of such events within a limited observational time period. However, if the inner slope of the mini-halo density profile is sufficiently steeper than the Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) profile, e.g., the pseudo-Jaffe profile, one may be able to detect one to more than hundred such GW events by ET and CE.

This paper introduces a novel method for automatically tuning the selection of compiler flags to optimize the performance of software intended to run on embedded hardware platforms. We begin by developing our approach on code compiled by the GNU C Compiler (GCC) for the ARM Cortex-M3 (CM3) processor; and we show how our method outperforms the industry standard -O3 optimization level across a diverse embedded benchmark suite. First we quantify the potential gains by using existing iterative compilation approaches that time-intensively search for optimal configurations for each benchmark. Then we adapt iterative compilation to output a single configuration that optimizes performance across the entire benchmark suite. Although this is a time-consuming process, our approach constructs an optimized variation of -O3, which we call -Ocm3, that realizes nearly two thirds of known available gains on the CM3 and significantly outperforms a more complex state-of-the-art predictive method in cross-validation experiments. Finally, we demonstrate our method on additional platforms by constructing two more optimization levels that find even more significant speed-ups on the ARM Cortex-A8 and 8-bit AVR processors.

One way to extract more information from the integrated light of galaxies is to improve the spectral resolution at which observations and analysis are carried out. The population synthesis code currently providing the highest spectral resolution is Pegase-HR, which was made available by D. Le Borgne et al. in 2004. Based on an empirical stellar library, it provides synthetic spectra between 4000 and 6800 A at lambda/d(lambda)=10000 for any star formation history, with or without chemical evolution. Such a resolution is particularly useful for the study of low mass galaxies, massive star clusters, or other galaxy regions with low internal velocity dispersions. After a summary of the main features of Pegase-HR and comparisons with other population synthesis codes, this paper focuses on the inversion of optical galaxy spectra. We explore the limits of what information can or can not be recovered, based on theoretical principles and extensive simulations. First applications to extragalactic objects are shown.

The Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect was previously measured in the Coma cluster by the Owens Valley Radio Observatory and Millimeter and IR Testa Grigia Observatory experiments and recently also with the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe satellite. We assess the consistency of these results and their implications on the feasibility of high-frequency SZ work with ground-based telescopes. The unique data set from the combined measurements at six frequency bands is jointly analyzed, resulting in a best-fit value for the Thomson optical depth at the cluster center, tau_{0}=(5.35 \pm 0.67) 10^{-3}. The combined X-ray and SZ determined properties of the gas are used to determine the Hubble constant. For isothermal gas with a \beta density profile we derive H_0 = 84 \pm 26 km/(s\cdot Mpc); the (1\sigma) error includes only observational SZ and X-ray uncertainties.

Two-dimensional multiferroic materials are highly sought after due to their huge potential for applications in nanoelectronic and spintronic devices. Here, we predict, based on first-principle calculations, a single phase {\it triferroic} where three ferroic orders; ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity and ferroelasticity, coexist simultaneously in hole doped GdCl$_2$ monolayer (a ferromagnetic semiconductor). This is achieved by substituting 1/3rd of the Gd$^{2+}$ ions with Eu$^{2+}$ in the hexagonal structure of GdCl$_2$ monolayer. The resulting metallic state undergoes a bond-centered charge ordering driving a distortion in the hexagonal structure making it semiconducting again and {\it ferroelastic}. Further, the lattice distortion accompanied by a breaking of the lattice centrosymmetry renders a non-centrosymmetric charge distribution which makes the monolayer {\it ferroelectric}, at the same time. The two ferroic orders, ferroelectricity and ferroelasticity, present in Eu doped GdCl$_2$ monolayer are found to be strongly coupled making it a promising candidate for device applications. The doped monolayer remains a ferromagnetic semiconductor with large 4f magnetic moment just like the parent monolayer and possesses an even higher (out-of-plane) magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) than its pristine counterpart as desired for two dimensional magnets to have high transition temperature.

Self-Supervised Viewpoint Learning From Image Collections

Training deep neural networks to estimate the viewpoint of objects requires large labeled training datasets. However, manually labeling viewpoints is notoriously hard, error-prone, and time-consuming. On the other hand, it is relatively easy to mine many unlabelled images of an object category from the internet, e.g., of cars or faces. We seek to answer the research question of whether such unlabeled collections of in-the-wild images can be successfully utilized to train viewpoint estimation networks for general object categories purely via self-supervision. Self-supervision here refers to the fact that the only true supervisory signal that the network has is the input image itself. We propose a novel learning framework which incorporates an analysis-by-synthesis paradigm to reconstruct images in a viewpoint aware manner with a generative network, along with symmetry and adversarial constraints to successfully supervise our viewpoint estimation network. We show that our approach performs competitively to fully-supervised approaches for several object categories like human faces, cars, buses, and trains. Our work opens up further research in self-supervised viewpoint learning and serves as a robust baseline for it. We open-source our code at https://github.com/NVlabs/SSV.

We present a quantum multi-modal treatment describing Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) as a mechanism for storing continuous variable quantum information in light fields. Taking into account the atomic noise and decoherences of realistic experiments, we model numerically the propagation, storage, and readout of signals contained in the sideband amplitude and phase quadratures of a light pulse. An analytical treatment of the effects predicted by this more sophisticated model is then presented. Finally, we use quantum information benchmarks to examine the properties of the EIT-based memory and show the parameters needed to operate beyond the quantum limit.

Given two newforms $f$ and $g$ of respective weights $k$ and $l$ with $k<l$, Hida constructed a $p$-adic $L$-function interpolating the values of the Rankin convolution of $f$ and $g$ in the critical strip $l \leq s \leq k$. However, this construction works only if $f$ is an ordinary form. Using a method developed by Panchishkin to construct $p$-adic $L$-function associated with modular forms, we generalize this construction to the case where the slope of $f$ is small.

Using methods from the theory of arithmetic groups, due in particular to Borel and Harish-Chandra, and to Margulis and his collaborators, we prove in this setting analogs of the classical theorems of diophantine approximation.

It is well-known that the law of a one-dimensional diffusion on natural scale is fully characterized by its speed measure. C. Stone proved a continuous dependence of diffusions on their speed measures. In this paper we establish the converse direction, i.e. we prove a continuous dependence of the speed measures on their diffusions. Furthermore, we take a topological point of view on the relation. More precisely, for suitable topologies, we establish a homeomorphic relation between the set of regular diffusions on natural scale without absorbing boundaries and the set of locally finite speed measures.

The hard-core model has attracted much attention across several disciplines, representing lattice gases in statistical physics and independent sets in discrete mathematics and computer science. On finite graphs, we are given a parameter $\lambda$, and an independent set $I$ arises with probability proportional to $\lambda^{|I|}$. On infinite graphs a Gibbs measure is defined as a suitable limit with the correct conditional probabilities, and we are interested in determining when this limit is unique and when there is phase coexistence, i.e., existence of multiple Gibbs measures. It has long been conjectured that on ${\mathbb Z}^2$ this model has a critical value $\lambda_c \approx 3.796$ with the property that if $\lambda < \lambda_c$ then it exhibits uniqueness of phase, while if $\lambda > \lambda_c$ then there is phase coexistence. Much of the work to date on this problem has focused on the regime of uniqueness, with the state of the art being recent work of Sinclair, Srivastava, \v{S}tefankovi\v{c} and Yin showing that there is a unique Gibbs measure for all $\lambda < 2.538$. Here we give the first non-trivial result in the other direction, showing that there are multiple Gibbs measures for all $\lambda > 5.3506$. There is some potential for lowering this bound, but with the methods we are using we cannot hope to replace $5.3506$ with anything below about $4.8771$. Our proof begins along the lines of the standard Peierls argument, but we add two innovations. First, following ideas of Koteck\'y and Randall, we construct an event that distinguishes two boundary conditions and always has long contours associated with it, obviating the need to accurately enumerate short contours. Second, we obtain improved bounds on the number of contours by relating them to a new class of self-avoiding walks on an oriented version of ${\mathbb Z}^2$.

For the first time, the production of a massive dark photon (DP) in the $\gamma e^-$ scattering at the future lepton colliders ILC, CLIC, and CEPC is examined. The invisible decay mode of the DP is addressed. We have studied both the unpolarized scattering and the collision of the Compton backscattered photons with the polarized electron. The missing energy distributions are shown. We have considered the wide range 10 GeV -- 1000 GeV of the DP mass $m_{A'}$. The excluded regions at the 95\% C.L. in the plane $(\varepsilon, m_{A'})$, where $\varepsilon$ is the kinetic mixing parameter, are obtained.

Adaptive estimation of linear functionals over a collection of parameter spaces is considered. A between-class modulus of continuity, a geometric quantity, is shown to be instrumental in characterizing the degree of adaptability over two parameter spaces in the same way that the usual modulus of continuity captures the minimax difficulty of estimation over a single parameter space. A general construction of optimally adaptive estimators based on an ordered modulus of continuity is given. The results are complemented by several illustrative examples.

Good comments help developers understand software faster and provide better maintenance. However, comments are often missing, generally inaccurate, or out of date. Many of these problems can be avoided by automatic comment generation. This paper presents a method to generate informative comments directly from the source code using general-purpose techniques from natural language processing. We generate comments using an existing natural language model that couples words with their individual logical meaning and grammar rules, allowing comment generation to proceed by search from declarative descriptions of program text. We evaluate our algorithm on several classic algorithms implemented in Python.

Recent years have seen a series of large-scale photometric surveys with the aim of detecting substructure in nearby dwarf galaxies. Some of these objects display a varying distribution of each stellar population, reflecting their star formation histories. Also, dwarf galaxies are dominated by dark matter, therefore luminous substructure may represent a perturbation in the underlying dark material. Substructure can also be the effect of tidal interaction, such as the disruption of the Sagittarius dSph by the Milky Way. Therefore, substructure in dwarf galaxies manifests the stellar, structural and kinematic evolution of these objects.

We study the parameterized complexity of training two-layer neural networks with respect to the dimension of the input data and the number of hidden neurons, considering ReLU and linear threshold activation functions. Albeit the computational complexity of these problems has been studied numerous times in recent years, several questions are still open. We answer questions by Arora et al. [ICLR '18] and Khalife and Basu [IPCO '22] showing that both problems are NP-hard for two dimensions, which excludes any polynomial-time algorithm for constant dimension. We also answer a question by Froese et al. [JAIR '22] proving W[1]-hardness for four ReLUs (or two linear threshold neurons) with zero training error. Finally, in the ReLU case, we show fixed-parameter tractability for the combined parameter number of dimensions and number of ReLUs if the network is assumed to compute a convex map. Our results settle the complexity status regarding these parameters almost completely.

The paper presents a new steganographic method called RSTEG (Retransmission Steganography), which is intended for a broad class of protocols that utilises retransmission mechanisms. The main innovation of RSTEG is to not acknowledge a successfully received packet in order to intentionally invoke retransmission. The retransmitted packet carries a steganogram instead of user data in the payload field. RSTEG is presented in the broad context of network steganography, and the utilisation of RSTEG for TCP (Transport Control Protocol) retransmission mechanisms is described in detail. Simulation results are also presented with the main aim to measure and compare the steganographic bandwidth of the proposed method for different TCP retransmission mechanisms as well as to determine the influence of RSTEG on the network retransmissions level.

Recent results show that the maximum network sum throughput is achieved where $K_{\rm act} \approx \frac{LM}{2}$ UEs are simultaneously active in any given time-frequency slots. However, the number of users $K_{\rm tot}$ in the network is usually much larger. This requires that users are scheduled over the time-frequency resource and achieve a certain throughput rate as an average over the slots. We impose throughput fairness among UEs with a scheduling approach aiming to maximize a concave component-wise non-decreasing network utility function of the per-user throughput rates. In cell-free user-centric networks, the pilot and cluster assignment is usually done for a given set of active users. Combined with fairness scheduling, this requires pilot and cluster reassignment at each scheduling slot, involving an enormous overhead of control signaling exchange between network entities. We propose a fixed pilot and cluster assignment scheme (independent of the scheduling decisions), which outperforms the baseline method in terms of UE throughput, while requiring much less control information exchange between network entities.

The problems of frictional contacts are the key to the investigation of mechanical performances of composite materials under varying service environments. The paper considers a linear elasticity system with strongly heterogeneous coefficients and quasistatic Tresca's friction law, and we study the homogenization theories under the frameworks of H-convergence and small $\epsilon$-periodicity. The qualitative result is based on H-convergence, which shows the original oscillating solutions will converge weakly to the homogenized solution, while our quantitative result provides an estimate of asymptotic errors in the $H^1$ norm for the periodic homogenization. We also design several numerical experiments to validate the convergence rates in the quantitative analysis.

Measurements of diffractive phenomena observed at HERA and the Tevatron are reviewed. A short introduction to the theoretical background is presented where colour singlet exchange reactions are discussed and the diffractive contribution and its interpretation via pomeron exchange outlined. The review focuses on the current experimental directions at HERA and discusses exclusive production of vector mesons, the dissociation of real photons and the deep inelastic structure of diffraction. Complementary information obtained from hadronic final states and jet structures is also discussed. The experimental signatures for diffractive jet and $W^\pm$ production observed at the Tevatron are described and the rates compared with those from the HERA experiments.

We propose an information criterion for multistep ahead predictions. It is also used for extrapolations. For the derivation, we consider multistep ahead predictions under local misspecification. In the prediction, we show that Bayesian predictive distributions asymptotically have smaller Kullback--Leibler risks than plug-in predictive distributions. From the results, we construct an information criterion for multistep ahead predictions by using an asymptotically unbiased estimator of the Kullback--Leibler risk of Bayesian predictive distributions. We show the effectiveness of the proposed information criterion throughout the numerical experiments.

Several searches for long-lived particles have been performed using data from p-pbar collisions from Run II at the Tevatron. In most cases, new analysis techniques have been developed to carry out each search and/or estimate the backgrounds. These searches expand the discovery potential of the CDF and D0 experiments to new physics that may have been missed by traditional search techniques. This review discusses searches for (1) neutral, long-lived particles decaying to muons, (2) massive, neutral, long-lived particles decaying to a photon and missing energy, (3) stopped gluinos, and (4) charged massive stable particles. It summarizes some of the theoretical and experimental motivations for such searches.

We study a lattice model of ``commons'', where a resource is shared locally among the agents of various cooperative tendency. The payoff function of an agent is proportional to the fraction of his operation rate and the net output of the resource. After each time step a site is occupied by the neighbor of maximum profit or by its owner himself. In steady state the model is dominated by ``altruist'' agents with a small minority of selfish agents, forming a complex pattern. The dynamics selects cooperative levels in a way that the model becomes critical. We study the critical behavior of the model in case of moderate mutation rate and find the power spectrum of fluctuation of activity shows a $1/f^\alpha$ behavior with $\alpha \sim 1.30$. In case of very slow mutation rate the steady state has slow fluctuations which helps the evolution of higher cooperative tendency.

We introduce the concept of a superlinear threshold detector, a detector that has a higher probability to detect multiple photons if it receives them simultaneously rather than at separate times. Highly superlinear threshold detectors in quantum key distribution systems allow eavesdropping the full secret key without being revealed. Here, we generalize the detector control attack, and analyze how it performs against quantum key distribution systems with moderately superlinear detectors. We quantify the superlinearity in superconducting single-photon detectors based on earlier published data, and gated avalanche photodiode detectors based on our own measurements. The analysis shows that quantum key distribution systems using detector(s) of either type can be vulnerable to eavesdropping. The avalanche photodiode detector becomes superlinear towards the end of the gate, allowing eavesdropping using trigger pulses containing less than 120 photons per pulse. Such an attack would be virtually impossible to catch with an optical power meter at the receiver entrance.

These lecture notes introduce some simple effective Hamiltonians (also known as semi-empirical models) that have widespread applications to solid state and molecular systems. They are aimed as an introduction to a beginning graduate student. I also hope that it may help to break down the divide between the physics and chemistry literatures. After a brief introduction to second quantisation notation, which is used extensively, I focus of the "four H's": the Huckel (or tight binding), Hubbard, Heisenberg and Holstein models. Some other related models, such as the Pariser-Parr-Pople model, the extended Hubbard model, multi-orbital models and the ionic Hubbard model, are also discussed. Finally, I discuss the epistemological basis of effective Hamiltonians and compare and contrast this with that of ab initio methods as well as discussing the problem of parametrising effective Hamiltonians.

We study entanglement dynamics between four qubits interacting through two isolated Jaynes-Cummings hamiltonians, via the entanglement measure based on the wedge product. We compare the results with similar results obtained using bipartite concurrence resulting in what is referred to as "entanglement sudden death". We find a natural entanglement invariant under evolution demonstrating that entanglement sudden death is caused by ignoring (tracing over) some of the system's degrees of freedom that become entangled through the interaction.

Predictions for the frequency and orbital radii of massive extrasolar planets

We investigate the migration of massive extrasolar planets due to gravitational interaction with a viscous protoplanetary disc. We show that a model in which planets form at 5 AU at a constant rate, before migrating, leads to a predicted distribution of planets that is a steeply rising function of log (a), where a is the orbital radius. Between 1 AU and 3 AU, the expected number of planets per logarithmic interval in orbital radius roughly doubles. We demonstrate that, once selection effects are accounted for, this is consistent with current data, and then extrapolate the observed planet fraction to masses and radii that are inaccessible to current observations. In total, about 15 percent of stars targeted by existing radial velocity searches are predicted to possess planets with masses 0.3 M_Jupiter < M_p sin (i) < 10 M_Jupiter, and radii 0.1 AU < a < 5 AU. A third of these planets (around 5 percent of the target stars) lie at the radii most amenable to detection via microlensing. A further 5-10 percent of stars could have planets at radii of 5 AU < a < 8 AU that have migrated outwards. We discuss the probability of forming a system (akin to the Solar System) in which significant radial migration of the most massive planet does not occur. About 10-15 percent of systems with a surviving massive planet are estimated to fall into this class. Finally, we note that a smaller fraction of low mass planets than high mass planets is expected to survive without being consumed by the star. The initial mass function for planets is thus predicted to rise more steeply towards small masses than the observed mass function.

Motivated by the lessons of black hole complementarity, we develop a causal patch description of eternal inflation. We argue that an observer cannot ascribe a semiclassical geometry to regions outside his horizon, because the large-scale metric is governed by the fluctuations of quantum fields. In order to identify what is within the horizon, it is necessary to understand the late time asymptotics. Any given worldline will eventually exit from eternal inflation into a terminal vacuum. If the cosmological constant is negative, the universe crunches. If it is zero, then we find that the observer's fate depends on the mechanism of eternal inflation. Worldlines emerging from an eternal inflation phase driven by thermal fluctuations end in a singularity. By contrast, if eternal inflation ends by bubble nucleation, the observer can emerge into an asymptotic, locally flat region. As evidence that bubble collisions preserve this property, we present an exact solution describing the collision of two bubbles.

The edge physics of the $\nu=5/2$ fractional quantum Hall state is of relevance to several recent experiments that use it as a probe to gain insight into the nature of the bulk state. We perform calculations in a semi-realistic setup with positive background charge at a distance $d$, by exact diagonalization both in the full Hilbert space (neglecting Landau level mixing) and in the restricted Pfaffian basis of edge excitations. Our principal finding is that the 5/2 edge is unstable to a reconstruction except for very small $d$. In addition, the interactions between the electrons in the second Landau level and the lowest Landau level enhance the tendency toward edge reconstruction. We identify the bosonic and fermionic modes of edge excitations and obtain their dispersions by back-calculating from the energy spectra as well as directly from appropriate trial wave functions. We find that the edge reconstruction is driven by an instability in the fermionic sector for setback distances close to the critical ones. We also study the edge of the $\nu=7/3$ state and find that edge reconstruction occurs here more readily than for the $\nu=1/3$ state. Our study indicates that the $\nu=5/2$ and 7/3 edge states are reconstructed for all experimental systems investigated so far and thus must be taken into account when analyzing experimental results. We also consider an effective field theory to gain insight into how edge reconstruction might influence various observable quantities.

Chest Area Segmentation in Depth Images of Sleeping Patients

Although the field of sleep study has greatly developed over the recent years, the most common and efficient way to detect sleep issues remains a sleep examination performed in a sleep laboratory, in a procedure called Polysomnography (PSG). This examination measures several vital signals during a full night's sleep using multiple sensors connected to the patient's body. Yet, despite being the golden standard, the connection of the sensors and the unfamiliar environment inevitably impact the quality of the patient's sleep and the examination itself. Therefore, with the novel development of more accurate and affordable 3D sensing devices, new approaches for non-contact sleep study emerged. These methods utilize different techniques with the purpose to extract the same sleep parameters, but remotely, eliminating the need of any physical connections to the patient's body. However, in order to enable reliable remote extraction, these methods require accurate identification of the basic Region of Interest (ROI) i.e. the chest area of the patient, a task that is currently holding back the development process, as it is performed manually for each patient. In this study, we propose an automatic chest area segmentation algorithm, that given an input set of 3D frames of a sleeping patient, outputs a segmentation image with the pixels that correspond to the chest area, and can then be used as an input to subsequent sleep analysis algorithms. Except for significantly speeding up the development process of the non-contact methods, accurate automatic segmentation can also enable a more precise feature extraction and it is shown it is already improving sensitivity of prior solutions on average 46.9% better compared to manual ROI selection. All mentioned will place the extraction algorithms of the non-contact methods as a leading candidate to replace the existing traditional methods used today.

Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS) are safety-critical systems required on most commercial aircrafts in service today. However, TCAS was not designed to account for malicious actors. While in the past it may have been infeasible for an attacker to craft radio signals to mimic TCAS signals, attackers today have access to open-source digital signal processing software, like GNU Radio, and inexpensive software defined radios (SDR) that enable the transmission of spurious TCAS messages. In this paper, methods, both qualitative and quantitative, for analyzing TCAS from an adversarial perspective are presented. To demonstrate the feasibility of inducing near mid-air collisions between current day TCAS-equipped aircraft, an experimental Phantom Aircraft generator is developed using GNU Radio and an SDR against a realistic threat model.

RXJ1720.1+2638 is a cool-core, 'relaxed-appearing' cluster with a minihalo previously detected up to 8.4 GHz, confined by X-ray-detected cold fronts. We present observations of the minihalo at 13 - 18 GHz with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager telescope, simultaneously modelling the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich signal of the cluster in conjunction with Planck and Chandra data in order to disentangle the non-thermal emission of the minihalo. We show that the previously-reported steepening of the minihalo emission at 8.4 GHz is not supported by the AMI data and that the spectrum is consistent with a single power-law up to 18 GHz. We also show the presence of a larger-scale component of the minihalo extending beyond the cold fronts. Both of these observations could be explained by the 'hadronic' or 'secondary' mechanism for the production of relativistic electrons, rather than the currently-favoured 're-acceleration' mechanism and/or multiple episodes of jet activity from the active galactic nucleus in the brightest cluster galaxy.

Consider any network of $n$ identical Kuramoto oscillators in which each oscillator is coupled bidirectionally with unit strength to at least $\mu (n-1)$ other oscillators. There is a critical value of the connectivity, $\mu_c$, such that whenever $\mu>\mu_c$, the system is guaranteed to converge to the all-in-phase synchronous state for almost all initial conditions, but when $\mu<\mu_c$, there are networks with other stable states. The precise value of the critical connectivity remains unknown, but it has been conjectured to be $\mu_c=0.75$. In 2020, Lu and Steinerberger proved that $\mu_c\leq 0.7889$, and Yoneda, Tatsukawa, and Teramae proved in 2021 that $\mu_c > 0.6838$. In this paper, we prove that $\mu_c\leq 0.75$ and explain why this is the best upper bound that one can obtain by a purely linear stability analysis.

Smoothing classifiers and probability density functions with Gaussian kernels appear unrelated, but in this work, they are unified for the problem of robust classification. The key building block is approximating the $\textit{energy function}$ of the random variable $Y=X+N(0,\sigma^2 I_d)$ with a neural network which we use to formulate the problem of robust classification in terms of $\widehat{x}(Y)$, the $\textit{Bayes estimator}$ of $X$ given the noisy measurements $Y$. We introduce $\textit{empirical Bayes smoothed classifiers}$ within the framework of $\textit{randomized smoothing}$ and study it theoretically for the two-class linear classifier, where we show one can improve their robustness above $\textit{the margin}$. We test the theory on MNIST and we show that with a learned smoothed energy function and a linear classifier we can achieve provable $\ell_2$ robust accuracies that are competitive with empirical defenses. This setup can be significantly improved by $\textit{learning}$ empirical Bayes smoothed classifiers with adversarial training and on MNIST we show that we can achieve provable robust accuracies higher than the state-of-the-art empirical defenses in a range of radii. We discuss some fundamental challenges of randomized smoothing based on a geometric interpretation due to concentration of Gaussians in high dimensions, and we finish the paper with a proposal for using walk-jump sampling, itself based on learned smoothed densities, for robust classification.

We are presenting in this paper a detailed account of the methods used to compute the three-dimensional two-point galaxy correlation function in the VIMOS-VLT deep survey (VVDS). We investigate how instrumental selection effects and observational biases affect the measurements and identify the methods to correct them. We quantify the accuracy of our correction method using an ensemble of fifty mock galaxy surveys generated with the GalICS semi-analytic model of galaxy formation which incorporate the same selection biases and tiling strategy as the real data does. We demonstrate that we are able to recover the real-space two-point correlation function xi(s) to an accuracy better than 10% on scales larger than 1 h^{-1} Mpc, and of about 30% on scales below 1 h^{-1} Mpc, with the sampling strategy used for the first epoch VVDS data. The projected correlation function w_p(r_p) is recovered with an accuracy better than 10% on all scales 0.1 <= r <= 10 h^{-1} Mpc. There is a tendency for a small but systematic under-estimate of the correlation length derived from w_p(r_p) of 6% on average, remaining after our correction process. The large number of simulated surveys allows us to provide a reliable estimate of the cosmic error on the measurements of the correlation length r_0, of about 15-20% for the first epoch VVDS observation (Le Fevre et al.2004, astro-ph/0409133). The error estimation and measurement techniques outlined in this paper are being used in several studies which investigate in detail the clustering properties of galaxies in the VVDS data.

We introduce the FirstLight project that aims to generate a large database of high-resolution, zoom-in simulations of galaxy formation around the epoch of reionisation ($z\geq6$). The first results of this program agree well with recent observational constraints at z=6-8, including the UV luminosity function and galaxy stellar mass function, as well as the scaling relationships between halo mass, stellar mass, and UV magnitude. The UV luminosity function starts to flatten below MUV>-14 due to stellar feedback in halos with maximum circular velocities of V=30-40 km/s. The power-law slope of the luminosity function evolves rapidly with redshift, reaching a value of alpha=-2.5 at z=10. On the other hand, the galaxy stellar mass function evolves slowly with time between z=8-10, in particular at the low-mass end.

Topological materials provide an exclusive platform to study the dynamics of relativistic particles in table-top experiments and offer the possibility of wide-scale technological applications. ZrSiS is a newly discovered topological nodal-line semimetal and has drawn enormous interests. In this report, we have investigated the lattice dynamics and electron-phonon interaction in single crystalline ZrSiS using Raman spectroscopy. Polarization and angle resolved measurements have been performed and the results have been analyzed using crystal symmetries and theoretically calculated atomic vibrational patterns along with phonon dispersion spectra. Wavelength and temperature dependent measurements show the complex interplay of electron and phonon degrees of freedom, resulting in resonant phonon and quasielastic electron scatterings through inter-band transitions. Our high-pressure Raman studies reveal vibrational anomalies, which were further investigated from the high-pressure synchrotron x-ray diffraction (HPXRD) spectra. From HPXRD, we have clearly identified pressure-induced structural transitions and coexistence of multiple phases, which also indicate possible electronic topological transitions in ZrSiS. The present study not only provides the fundamental information on the phonon subsystem, but also sheds some light in understanding the topological nodal-line phase in ZrSiS and other iso-structural systems.

In this paper, a novel multitaper modified group delay function-based representation for speech signals is proposed. With a set of phoneme-based experiments, it is shown that the proposed method performs better that an existing multitaper magnitude (MT-MAG) estimation technique, in terms of variance and MSE, both in spectral- and cepstral-domains. In particular, the performance of MT-MOGDF is found to be the best with the Thomson tapers. Additionally, the utility of the MT-MOGDF technique is highlighted in a speaker recognition experimental setup, where an improvement of around $20\%$ compared to the next-best technique is obtained. Moreover, the computational requirements of the proposed technique is comparable to that of MT-MAG. The proposed feature can be used in for many speech-related applications; in particular, it is best suited among those that require information of speaker and speech.

When finite-size corrections vanish: The S=1/2 XXZ model and the Razumov-Stroganov state

We study the one-dimensional $S=1/2$ XXZ model on a finite lattice at zero temperature, varying the exchange anisotropy $\Delta$ and the number of sites $N$ of the lattice. Special emphasis is given to the model with $\Delta=1/2$ and $N$ odd, whose ground state, the so-called Razumov-Stroganov state, has a peculiar structure and no finite-size corrections to the energy per site. We find that such model corresponds to a special point on the $\Delta$-axis which separates the region where adding spin-pairs increases the energy per site from that where the longer the chain the lower the energy. Entanglement properties do not hold surprises for $\Delta=1/2$ and $N$ odd. Finite-size corrections to the energy per site non trivially vanish also in the ferromagnetic $\Delta\to -1^+$ isotropic limit, which is consequently addressed; in this case, peculiar features of some entanglement properties, due to the finite length of the chain and related with the change in the symmetry of the Hamiltonian, are evidenced and discussed. In both the above models the absence of finite-size corrections to the energy per site is related to a peculiar structure of the ground state, which has permitted us to provide new exact analytic expressions for some correlation functions.

This paper proposes an environment to support high-level database programming in a declarative programming language. In order to ensure safe database updates, all access and update operations related to the database are generated from high-level descriptions in the entity- relationship (ER) model. We propose a representation of ER diagrams in the declarative language Curry so that they can be constructed by various tools and then translated into this representation. Furthermore, we have implemented a compiler from this representation into a Curry program that provides access and update operations based on a high-level API for database programming.

Due to the frequent murder incidents of ride-hailing drivers in China in 2018, ride-hailing companies took a series of measures to prevent such incidents and ensure ride-hailing passengers' safety. This study investigated users' willingness to use ride-hailing apps after murder incidents and users' attitudes toward Safety Rectification. We found that murder incidents of ride-hailing drivers had a significant adverse impact on people's usage of ride-hailing apps. Female users' consuming willingness was 0.633 times that of male users, such as" psychological harm" was more evident among females, and Safety Rectification had a calming effect for some users. Finally, we found that people were satisfied with ride-hailing apps' efficiency, but were not satisfied with safety and reliability, considered them important; female users were more concerned about the security than male users.

We complete our high-accuracy studies of the lattice ghost propagator in Landau gauge in Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory up to three loops. We present a systematic strategy which allows to extract with sufficient precision the non-logarithmic parts of logarithmically divergent quantities as a function of the propagator momentum squared in the infinite-volume and $a\to 0$ limits. We find accurate coincidence with the one-loop result for the ghost self-energy known from standard Lattice Perturbation Theory and improve our previous estimate for the two-loop constant contribution to the ghost self-energy in Landau gauge. Our results for the perturbative ghost propagator are compared with Monte Carlo measurements of the ghost propagator performed by the Berlin Humboldt university group which has used the exponential relation between potentials and gauge links.
