Context. Discovery of new variability classes in large surveys using multivariate statistics techniques such as clustering, relies heavily on the correct understanding of the distribution of known classes as point processes in parameter space. Aims. Our objective is to analyze the correspondence between the classical stellar variability types and the clusters found in the distribution of light curve parameters and colour indices of stars in the CoRoT exoplanet sample. The final aim is to help in the identification on new types of variability by first identifying the well known variables in the CoRoT sample. Methods. We apply unsupervised classification algorithms to identify clusters of variable stars from modes of the probability density distribution. We use reference variability databases (Hipparcos and OGLE) as a framework to calibrate the clustering methodology. Furthermore, we use the results from supervised classification methods to interpret the resulting clusters. Results.We interpret the clusters in the Hipparcos and OGLE LMC databases in terms of large-amplitude radial pulsators in the classical instability strip and of various types of eclipsing binaries. The Hipparcos data also provide clear distributions for low-amplitude nonradial pulsators. We show that the preselection of targets for the CoRoT exoplanet programme results in a completely different probability density landscape than the OGLE data, the interpretation of which involves mainly classes of low-amplitude variability in main-sequence stars. Our findings will be incorporated to improve the supervised classification used in the CoRoT catalogue production, once the existence of new classes or subtypes will be confirmed from complementary spectroscopic observations.

Using the technology of the CAESAR approach to resummation, we examine the jet-veto efficiency in Higgs-boson and Drell-Yan production at hadron colliders and show that at next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) accuracy the resummation reduces to just a Sudakov form factor. Matching with NNLO calculations results in stable predictions for the case of Drell-Yan production, but reveals substantial uncertainties in gluon-fusion Higgs production, connected in part with the poor behaviour of the perturbative series for the total cross section. We compare our results to those from POWHEG with and without reweighting by HqT, as used experimentally, and observe acceptable agreement. In an appendix we derive the part of the NNLL resummation corrections associated with the radius dependence of the jet algorithm.

We present an elementary and self-contained construction of $A_\infty$-algebras, $A_\infty$-bimodules and their Hochschild homology and cohomology groups. In addition, we discuss the cup product in Hochschild cohomology and the spectral sequence of the length filtration of a Hochschild chain complex. $A_\infty$-structures arise naturally in the study of based loop spaces and the geometry of manifolds, in particular in Lagrangian Floer theory and Morse homology. In several geometric situations, Hochschild homology may be used to describe homology groups of free loop spaces. The objective of this article is not to introduce new material, but to give a unified and coherent discussion of algebraic results from several sources. It further includes detailed proofs of all presented results.

Context. In tight binary star systems, tidal interactions can significantly influence the rotational and orbital evolution of both stars, and therefore their activity evolution. This can have strong effects on the atmospheric evolution of planets that are orbiting the two stars. Aims. In this paper, we aim to study the evolution of stellar rotation and of X-ray and ultraviolet (XUV) radiation in tight binary systems consisting of two solar mass stars and use our results to study planetary atmosphere evolution in the habitable zones of these systems. Methods. We have applied a rotation model developed for single stars to binary systems, taking into account the effects of tidal interactions on the rotational and orbital evolution of both stars. We used empirical rotation-activity relations to predict XUV evolution tracks for the stars, which we used to model hydrodynamic escape of hydrogen dominated atmospheres. Results. When significant, tidal interactions increase the total amount of XUV energy emitted, and in the most extreme cases by up to factor of $\sim$50. We find that in the systems that we study, habitable zone planets with masses of 1~M$_\oplus$ can lose huge hydrogen atmospheres due to the extended high levels of XUV emission, and the time that is needed to lose these atmospheres depends on the binary orbital separation.For some orbital separations, and when the stars are born as rapid rotators, it is also possible for tidal interactions to protect atmospheres from erosion by quickly spinning down the stars. For very small orbital separations, the loss of orbital angular momentum by stellar winds causes the two stars to merge. We suggest that the merging of the two stars could cause previously frozen planets to become habitable due to the habitable zone boundaries moving outwards.

We investigate the important problem of certifying stability of reinforcement learning policies when interconnected with nonlinear dynamical systems. We show that by regulating the input-output gradients of policies, strong guarantees of robust stability can be obtained based on a proposed semidefinite programming feasibility problem. The method is able to certify a large set of stabilizing controllers by exploiting problem-specific structures; furthermore, we analyze and establish its (non)conservatism. Empirical evaluations on two decentralized control tasks, namely multi-flight formation and power system frequency regulation, demonstrate that the reinforcement learning agents can have high performance within the stability-certified parameter space, and also exhibit stable learning behaviors in the long run.

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
In general, recommendation can be viewed as a matching problem, i.e., match proper items for proper users. However, due to the huge semantic gap between users and items, it's almost impossible to directly match users and items in their initial representation spaces. To solve this problem, many methods have been studied, which can be generally categorized into two types, i.e., representation learning-based CF methods and matching function learning-based CF methods. Representation learning-based CF methods try to map users and items into a common representation space. In this case, the higher similarity between a user and an item in that space implies they match better. Matching function learning-based CF methods try to directly learn the complex matching function that maps user-item pairs to matching scores. Although both methods are well developed, they suffer from two fundamental flaws, i.e., the limited expressiveness of dot product and the weakness in capturing low-rank relations respectively. To this end, we propose a general framework named DeepCF, short for Deep Collaborative Filtering, to combine the strengths of the two types of methods and overcome such flaws. Extensive experiments on four publicly available datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed DeepCF framework.

A nonlinear flag is a finite sequence of nested closed submanifolds. We study the geometry of Frechet manifolds of nonlinear flags, in this way generalizing the nonlinear Grassmannians. As an application we describe a class of coadjoint orbits of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms that consist of nested symplectic submanifolds, i.e., symplectic nonlinear flags.

We consider a game-theoretic model of a market where investors compete for payoffs yielded by several assets. The main result consists in a proof of the existence and uniqueness of a strategy, called relative growth optimal, such that the logarithm of the share of its wealth in the total wealth of the market is a submartingale for any strategies of the other investors. It is also shown that this strategy is asymptotically optimal in the sense that it achieves the maximal capital growth rate when compared to competing strategies. Based on the results obtained, we study the asymptotic structure of the market when all the investors use the relative growth optimal strategy.

In this paper, we start by showing that the intertwining relationship between two minimal Markov semigroups acting on Hilbert spaces implies that any recurrent extensions, in the sense of It\^o, of these semigroups satisfy the same intertwining identity. Under mild additional assumptions on the intertwining operator, we prove that the converse also holds. This connection, which relies on the representation of excursion quantities as developed by Fitzsimmons and Getoor, enables us to give an interesting probabilistic interpretation of intertwining relationships between Markov semigroups via excursion theory: two such recurrent extensions that intertwine share, under an appropriate normalization, the same local time at the boundary point. Moreover, in the case when one of the (non-self-adjoint) semigroup intertwines with the one of a quasi-diffusion, we obtain an extension of Krein's theory of strings byshowing that its densely defined spectral measure is absolutely continuous with respect to the measure appearing in the Stieltjes representation of the Laplace exponent of the inverse local time. Finally, we illustrate our results with the class of positive self-similar Markov semigroups and also the reflected generalized Laguerre semigroups. For the latter, we obtain their spectral decomposition and provide, under some conditions, a perturbed spectral gap estimate for its convergence to equilibrium.

We study the relation of containment up to unknown regular resynchronization between two-way non-deterministic transducers. We show that it constitutes a preorder, and that the corresponding equivalence relation is properly intermediate between origin equivalence and classical equivalence. We give a syntactical characterization for containment of two transducers up to resynchronization, and use it to show that this containment relation is undecidable already for one-way non-deterministic transducers, and for simple classes of resynchronizations. This answers the open problem stated in recent works, asking whether this relation is decidable for two-way non-deterministic transducers.

Extragalactic neutrino emission induced by Supermassive and Stellar Mass Black Hole mergers

The recent detections of binary stellar mass black hole mergers by the LIGO and Virgo Collaborations suggest that such mergers are common occurrences. Galaxy mergers further indicate that supermassive black holes in centers of galaxies also merge and are typically expected to have had at least one merger in their lifetime, possibly many. In the presence of a jet, these mergers are almost always accompanied by a change of the jet direction and a connected jet precession motion, leading to interactions of the jet with ambient matter and producing very high-energy particles, and consequently high-energy gamma-rays and neutrinos. In this work, we investigate the possibility under which conditions such mergers could be the sources of the diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux measured by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. The main free parameters in the calculation concern the frequency of the mergers and the fraction of energy that is transferred from the gravitationally released energy to neutrinos. We show that the merger rate for SMBBHs must lie between $\sim 10^{-7}$ and $10^{-5}$ Gpc$^{-3}$ yr$^{-1}$. The ratio of energy going to neutrinos during such mergers lies then between $\sim 10^{-6} - 3\cdot 10^{-4}$. For stellar mass BBH mergers, the rate needs to be $\sim 10-100$ Gpc$^{-3}$ yr$^{-1}$ and the expected ratio of neutrino to gravitational wave energy lies in a comparable range as for SMBBHs, $\sim 2 \cdot 10^{-5} - 10^{-3}$. These values lie in a reasonable parameter range, so that the production of neutrinos at the level of the detected neutrino flux is a realistic possibility.

Changes in solar irradiance and in its spectral distribution are among the main natural drivers of the climate on Earth. However, irradiance measurements are only available for less than four decades, while assessment of solar influence on Earth requires much longer records. The aim of this work is to provide the most up-to-date physics-based reconstruction of the solar total and spectral irradiance (TSI/SSI) over the last nine millennia. The concentrations of the cosmogenic isotopes 14C and 10Be in natural archives have been converted to decadally averaged sunspot numbers through a chain of physics-based models. TSI and SSI are reconstructed with an updated SATIRE model. Reconstructions are carried out for each isotope record separately, as well as for their composite. We present the first ever SSI reconstruction over the last 9000 years from the individual 14C and 10Be records as well as from their newest composite. The reconstruction employs physics-based models to describe the involved processes at each step of the procedure. Irradiance reconstructions based on two different cosmogenic isotope records, those of 14C and 10Be, agree well with each other in their long-term trends despite their different geochemical paths in the atmosphere of Earth. Over the last 9000 years, the reconstructed secular variability in TSI is of the order of 0.11%, or 1.5 W/m2. After the Maunder minimum, the reconstruction from the cosmogenic isotopes is consistent with that from the direct sunspot number observation. Furthermore, over the nineteenth century, the agreement of irradiance reconstructions using isotope records with the reconstruction from the sunspot number by Chatzistergos et al. (2017) is better than that with the reconstruction from the WDC-SILSO series (Clette et al. 2014), with a lower chi-square-value.

We introduce a novel approach to study the longitudinal hydrodynamic expansion of the quark-gluon fluid created in heavy-ion collisions. It consists of two steps: First, we apply the maximum entropy method to reconstruct the freeze-out surface from experimentally measured particle distribution. We then take the output of the reconstruction as the "initial" condition to evolve the system back in time by solving the 1+1 ideal hydrodynamic equations analytically, using the method of Khalatnikov and Landau. We find an approximate Bjorken-like plateau in the energy density vs rapidity profile at the early times, which shrinks with time as the boundary shocks propagate inward. In Bjorken frame, the fluid velocity is close to zero within the plateau, as in the Bjorken solution, but increases outside the plateau. The results carry implications for fully numerical hydrodynamic simulations as well as models of heavy-ion collisions based on gauge-gravity duality.

Suppose a spacetime $M$ is a quotient of a spacetime $V$ by a discrete group of isometries. It is shown how causality conditions in the two spacetimes are related, and how can one learn about the future causal boundary on $M$ by studying structures in $V$. The relations between the two are particularly simple (the boundary of the quotient is the quotient of the boundary) if both $V$ and $M$ have spacelike future boundaries and if it is known that the quotient of the future completion of $V$ is past-distinguishing. (That last assumption is automatic in the case of $M$ being multi-warped.)

Asymptotic decoupling of population growth rate and cell size distribution

The rate at which individual bacterial cells grow depends on the concentrations of cellular components such as ribosomes and proteins. These concentrations continuously fluctuate over time and are inherited from mother to daughter cells leading to correlations between the growth rates of cells across generations. Division sizes of cells are also stochastic and correlated across generations due to a phenomenon known as cell size regulation. Fluctuations and correlations from both growth and division processes affect the population dynamics of an exponentially growing culture. Here, we provide analytic solutions for the population dynamics of cells with continuously fluctuating growth rates coupled with a generic model of cell-size regulation. We show that in balanced growth, the effects of growth and division processes decouple; the population growth rate only depends on the single-cell growth rate process, and the population cell size distribution only depends on the model of division and cell size regulation. The population growth rate is always higher than the average single-cell growth rate, and the difference increases with growth rate variability and its correlation time. This difference also sets the timescale for the population to reach its steady state. We provide analytical solutions for oscillations in population growth rate and traveling waves in size distribution during this approach to the steady state.

Motivated by the study of (m,n)-quasitilted algebras, which are the piecewise hereditary algebras obtained from quasitilted algebras of global dimension two by a sequence of (co)tiltings involving n-1 tilting modules and m-1 cotilting modules, we introduce (m,n)-almost hereditary algebras. These are the algebras with global dimension m+n and such that any indecomposable module has projective dimension at most m, or else injective dimension at most n. We relate these two classes of algebras, among which (m,1)-almost hereditary ones play a special role. For these, we prove that any indecomposable module lies in the right part of the module category, or else in an m-analog of the left part. This is based on the more general study of algebras the module categories of which admit a torsion-free subcategory such that any indecomposable module lies in that subcategory, or else has injective dimension at most n.

A classical solution is called universal if the quantum correction is a multiple of the metric. Universal solutions consequently play an important role in the quantum theory. We show that in a spacetime which is universal all of the scalar curvature invariants are constant (i.e., the spacetime is CSI).

Incorporating full duplex operation in Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems provides the potential of boosting throughput performance. However, the hardware complexity of the analog self-interference canceller scales with the number of transmit and receive antennas, thus exploiting the benefits of analog cancellation becomes impractical for full duplex MIMO transceivers. In this paper, we present a novel architecture for the analog canceller comprising of reduced number of taps (tap refers to a line of fixed delay and variable phase shifter and attenuator) and simple multiplexers for efficient signal routing among the transmit and receive radio frequency chains. In contrast to the available analog cancellation architectures, the values for each tap and the configuration of the multiplexers are jointly designed with the digital beamforming filters according to certain performance objectives. Focusing on a narrowband flat fading channel model as an example, we present a general optimization framework for the joint design of analog cancellation and digital beamforming. We also detail a particular optimization objective together with its derived solution for the latter architectural components. Representative computer simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed low complexity full duplex MIMO system over lately available ones.

Wikipedia's contents are based on reliable and published sources. To this date, relatively little is known about what sources Wikipedia relies on, in part because extracting citations and identifying cited sources is challenging. To close this gap, we release Wikipedia Citations, a comprehensive dataset of citations extracted from Wikipedia. A total of 29.3M citations were extracted from 6.1M English Wikipedia articles as of May 2020, and classified as being to books, journal articles or Web contents. We were thus able to extract 4.0M citations to scholarly publications with known identifiers -- including DOI, PMC, PMID, and ISBN -- and further equip an extra 261K citations with DOIs from Crossref. As a result, we find that 6.7% of Wikipedia articles cite at least one journal article with an associated DOI, and that Wikipedia cites just 2% of all articles with a DOI currently indexed in the Web of Science. We release our code to allow the community to extend upon our work and update the dataset in the future.

We study a general theory on the interference of two-photon wavepacket in a beam splitter (BS). We find that the perfect coalescence interference requires a symmetric spectrum of two-photon wavepacket which can be entangled or un-entangled. Furthermore, we introduce a two-photon wavepacket with anti-symmetric spectrum, which is related with photon entanglement and shows a perfect anti-coalescence effect. The theory present uniform and complete explanation to two-photon interference.

We report on and analyze the textural transformations in islands, thicker circular domains, floating in very thin free standing chiral Smectic C* liquid crystal films. As an island is growing, an initial pure bend texture of the c-director changes into a reversing spiral at a critical size. Another distinct spiral texture is induced by changing the boundary condition at the central point defect in the island. To understand these transformations from a pure bend island, a linear stability analysis of the c-director free energy is developed, which predicts a state diagram for the island. Our observations are consistent with the theoretical phase diagram.

A new class of four-dimensional, hairy, stationary solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell-Lambda system with a conformally coupled scalar field is constructed in this paper. The metric belongs to the Plebanski-Demianski family and hence its static limit has the form of the charged C-metric. It is shown that, in the static case, a new family of hairy black holes arises. They turn out to be cohomogeneity-two, with horizons that are neither Einstein nor homogenous manifolds. The conical singularities in the C-metric can be removed due to the back reaction of the scalar field providing a new kind of regular, radiative spacetime. The scalar field carries a continuous parameter proportional to the usual acceleration present in the C-metric. In the zero-acceleration limit, the static solution reduces to the dyonic Bocharova-Bronnikov-Melnikov-Bekenstein solution or the dyonic extension of the Martinez-Troncoso-Zanelli black holes, depending on the value of the cosmological constant.

The quantum nature of light enables potentially revolutionary communication technologies. Key to advancing this area of research is a clear understanding of the concepts of states, modes, fields, and photons. The concept of field modes carries over from classical optics, while the concept of state has to be considered carefully when treating light quantum mechanically. The term 'photon' is an overloaded identifier in the sense that it is often used to refer to either a quantum particle or the state of a field. This overloading, often used without placing in context, has the potential to obfuscate the physical processes that describe the reality we measure. We review the uses and relationships between these concepts using modern quantum optics theory, including the concept of a photon wave function, the modern history of which was moved forward in a groundbreaking paper in this journal by Iwo Bia{\l}ynicki-Birula, to whom this article is dedicated.

The LINPACK benchmark reports the performance of a computer for solving a system of linear equations with dense random matrices. Although this task was not designed with a real application directly in mind, the LINPACK benchmark has been used to define the list of TOP500 supercomputers since the debut of the list in 1993. We propose that a similar benchmark, called the quantum LINPACK benchmark, could be used to measure the whole machine performance of quantum computers. The success of the quantum LINPACK benchmark should be viewed as the minimal requirement for a quantum computer to perform a useful task of solving linear algebra problems, such as linear systems of equations. We propose an input model called the RAndom Circuit Block-Encoded Matrix (RACBEM), which is a proper generalization of a dense random matrix in the quantum setting. The RACBEM model is efficient to be implemented on a quantum computer, and can be designed to optimally adapt to any given quantum architecture, with relying on a black-box quantum compiler. Besides solving linear systems, the RACBEM model can be used to perform a variety of linear algebra tasks relevant to many physical applications, such as computing spectral measures, time series generated by a Hamiltonian simulation, and thermal averages of the energy. We implement these linear algebra operations on IBM Q quantum devices as well as quantum virtual machines, and demonstrate their performance in solving scientific computing problems.

Parker instability leads to the formation of tangential discontinuities in a magnetic field and subsequent magnetic reconnection due to a numerical and/or an explicit resistivity. In this paper we investigate the role of the uniform, localized and numerical resistivity on the diffusion of magnetic field lines during the growth phase of Parker instability modes. We propose a new method to quantify the diffusion of magnetic field lines which is attributed to the presence of resistivity in ideal and non-ideal MHD codes. The method relies (1) on integration of magnetic lines in between periodic boundaries, (2) on measurements of the dispersion of magnetic field lines with the left and the right periodic boundaries and (3) on a statistical analysis of shifts of a large set of magnetic lines. The proposed method makes it possible to detect topological evolution of magnetic field. We perform a series of resistive MHD simulations of the Parker instability in uniformly rotating galactic disks. We follow the topological evolution of the magnetic field evolving due to the Parker instability and relate it to the ratio of total to uniform magnetic field in galactic disks. We find that after the onset of the Parker instability, the magnetic field becomes first tangled and later on it evolves toward a uniform state due to the presence of resistivity. A similar effect of a varying contribution of a turbulent magnetic field is observed in arms and inter-arm regions of galaxies.

Traditional finite element method is a well-established method to solve various problems of science and engineering. Different authors have used various methods to solve governing differential equation of heat conduction problem. In this study, heat conduction in a circular rod has been considered which is made up of two different materials viz. aluminum and copper. In earlier studies parameters in the differential equation have been taken as fixed (crisp) numbers which actually may not. Those parameters are found in general by some measurements or experiments. So the material properties are actually uncertain and may be considered to vary in an interval or as fuzzy and in that case complex interval arithmetic or fuzzy arithmetic has to be considered in the analysis. As such the problem is discretized into finite number of elements which depend on interval/fuzzy parameters. Representation of interval/fuzzy numbers may give the clear picture of uncertainty. Hence interval/fuzzy arithmetic is applied in the finite element method to solve a steady state heat conduction problem. Application of fuzzy finite element method in the said problem gives fuzzy system of linear equations in general. Here new methods have also been proposed to handle such type of fuzzy system of linear equations. Corresponding results are computed and has been reported here.

The Hubbard model and its strong-coupling version, the Heisenberg one, have been widely studied on the triangular lattice to capture the essential low-temperature properties of different materials. One example is given by transition metal dichalcogenides, as 1T$-$TaS$_2$, where a large unit cell with $13$ Ta atom forms weakly-coupled layers with an isotropic triangular lattice. By using accurate variational Monte Carlo calculations, we report the phase diagram of the $t-t^\prime$ Hubbard model on the triangular lattice, highlighting the differences between positive and negative values of $t^\prime/t$; this result can be captured only by including the charge fluctuations that are always present for a finite electron-electron repulsion. Two spin-liquid regions are detected: one for $t^\prime/t<0$, which persists down to intermediate values of the electron-electron repulsion, and a narrower one for $t^\prime/t>0$. The spin-liquid phase appears to be gapless, though the variational wave function has a nematic character, in contrast to the Heisenberg limit. We do not find any evidence for non-magnetic Mott phases in the proximity of the metal-insulator transition, at variance with the predictions (mainly based upon strong-coupling expansions in $t/U$) that suggest the existence of a weak-Mott phase that intrudes between the metal and the magnetically ordered insulator.

We analyze multidimensional BSDEs in a filtration that supports a Brownian motion and a Poisson random measure. Under a monotonicity assumption on the driver, the paper extends several results from the literature. We establish existence and uniqueness of solutions in $L^p$ provided that the generator and the terminal condition satisfy appropriate integrability conditions. The analysis is first carried out under a deterministic time horizon, and then generalized to random time horizons given by a stopping time with respect to the underlying filtration. Moreover, we provide a comparison principle in dimension one.

This follows from a more general theorem which allows us to construct a finite G-CW-complex by gluing together a given G-invariant family of representations defined on the Sylow subgroups of G.

This text is an introduction to an operational outlook on Bell inequalities, which has been very fruitful in the past few years. It has lead to the recognition that Bell tests have their own place in applied quantum technologies, because they quantify non-classicality in a device-independent way, that is, without any need to describe the degrees of freedom under study and the measurements that are performed. At the more fundamental level, the same device-independent outlook has allowed the falsification of several other alternative models that could hope to reproduce the observed statistics while keeping some classical features that quantum theory denies; and it has shed new light on the long-standing quest for deriving quantum theory from physical principles.

Spatial resolution of depth sensors is often significantly lower compared to that of conventional optical cameras. Recent work has explored the idea of improving the resolution of depth using higher resolution intensity as a side information. In this paper, we demonstrate that further incorporating temporal information in videos can significantly improve the results. In particular, we propose a novel approach that improves depth resolution, exploiting the space-time redundancy in the depth and intensity using motion-adaptive low-rank regularization. Experiments confirm that the proposed approach substantially improves the quality of the estimated high-resolution depth. Our approach can be a first component in systems using vision techniques that rely on high resolution depth information.

We present a detailed analysis of the unconstrained $\ell_1$-weighted LASSO method for recovery of sparse data from its observation by randomly generated matrices, satisfying the Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) with constant $\delta<1$, and subject to negligible measurement and compressibility errors. We prove that if the data is $k$-sparse, then the size of support of the LASSO minimizer, $s$, maintains a comparable sparsity, $s\leq C_\delta k$. For example, if $\delta=0.7$ then $s< 11k$ and a slightly smaller $\delta=0.4$ yields $s< 4k$. We also derive new $\ell_2/\ell_1$ error bounds which highlight precise dependence on $k$ and on the LASSO parameter $\lambda$, before the error is driven below the scale of negligible measurement/ and compressiblity errors.

A new viewpoint on relations between surfaces of constant mean curvature in certain space forms is presented --- in particular, a new form of Bryant's Weierstrass type representation for surfaces of constant mean curvature 1 in hyperbolic 3-space is given.

We establish transportation cost inequalities (TCI) with respect to the quantum Wasserstein distance by introducing quantum extensions of well-known classical methods: first, using a non-commutative version of Ollivier's coarse Ricci curvature, we prove that high temperature Gibbs states of commuting Hamiltonians on arbitrary hypergraphs $H=(V,E)$ satisfy a TCI with constant scaling as $O(|V|)$. Second, we argue that the temperature range for which the TCI holds can be enlarged by relating it to recently established modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. Third, we prove that the inequality still holds for fixed points of arbitrary reversible local quantum Markov semigroups on regular lattices, albeit with slightly worsened constants, under a seemingly weaker condition of local indistinguishability of the fixed points. Finally, we use our framework to prove Gaussian concentration bounds for the distribution of eigenvalues of quasi-local observables and argue the usefulness of the TCI in proving the equivalence of the canonical and microcanonical ensembles and an exponential improvement over the weak Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis.

Within the $\alpha$-attractors framework we investigate scalar potentials with the same pole as the one featured in the kinetic term. We show that, in field space, this leads to directions without a plateau. Using this, we present a proposal, which manages to overcome the initial conditions problem of inflation with a plateau. An earlier period of proto-inflation, beginning at Planck scale, accounts for the Universe expansion and arranges the required initial conditions for inflation on the plateau to commence. We show that, if proto-inflation is power-law, it does not suffer from a sub-Planckian eternal inflationary stage, which would otherwise be a problem. A simple model realisation is constructed in the context of $\alpha$-attractors, which can both generate the inflationary plateau and the exponential slopes around it, necessary for the two inflation stages. Our mechanism allows to assume chaotic initial conditions at the Planck scale for proto-inflation, it is generic and it is shown to work without fine-tuning.

Data consistency is very desirable because strong semantic properties make it easier to write correct programs that perform as users expect. However, there are good reasons why consistency may have to be weakened to achieve other business goals. In this CIDR 2009 Perspectives paper, we present real-world reasons inconsistency may be necessary, offer principles for managing inconsistency coherently, and describe implementation approaches we are investigating for sustainably scalable systems that offer comprehensible user experiences despite inconsistency.

Ultraviolet light incident on organic material can initiate its spontaneous dissipative structuring into chromophores which can then catalyze their own replication. This may have been the case for one of the most ancient of all chromophores dissipating the Archean UVC photon flux, the nucleic acids. Under the empirically established imperative of increasing entropy production, nucleic acids with affinity to particular amino acids which foment UVC photon dissipation would have been "thermodynamically selected" through this dissipation-replication relation. Indeed, we show here that those amino acids with characteristics most relevant to fomenting UVC photon dissipation are precisely those with greatest affinity to their codons or anticodons. This could provide a physical-chemical mechanism for the accumulation of information in nucleic acids relevant to the dissipation of the externally imposed photon potential. This mechanism could provide a non-equilibrium thermodynamic foundation, based on increasing global entropy production of the biosphere, for the tenants of Darwinian natural selection. We show how this mechanism might have begun operating at the origin of life in the Archean, and how, in fact, it still operates today, albeit indirectly through complex biosynthetic pathways now operating in the visible.

Current HDR acquisition techniques are based on either (i) fusing multibracketed, low dynamic range (LDR) images, (ii) modifying existing hardware and capturing different exposures simultaneously with multiple sensors, or (iii) reconstructing a single image with spatially-varying pixel exposures. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to recover high-quality HDRI images from a single, coded exposure. The proposed reconstruction method builds on recently-introduced ideas of convolutional sparse coding (CSC); this paper demonstrates how to make CSC practical for HDR imaging. We demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves higher-quality reconstructions than alternative methods, we evaluate optical coding schemes, analyze algorithmic parameters, and build a prototype coded HDR camera that demonstrates the utility of convolutional sparse HDRI coding with a custom hardware platform.

The second law of thermodynamics requires the overall thermal current to flow from hot to cold. However, it does not forbid a local thermal current from flowing from cold to hot. By coupling a harmonic system of three masses connected by a few springs to two Langevin reservoirs at different temperatures, a local atypical thermal current is found to flow from cold to hot in the steady state while the overall thermal current is still from hot to cold. The direction of the local thermal current can be tuned by the mass, spring constant, and system-reservoir coupling. The local thermal current can vanish if the parameters are tuned to proper values. We also consider nonlinear effect from the system-substrate coupling and find that the local atypical thermal current survives in the presence of the nonlinear potential. Moreover, the local atypical thermal current is robust against asymmetry of the system-reservoir coupling, inhomogeneity of the nonlinear potential, and additions of more masses and springs. In molecular or nanomechanical systems where the setup may find its realization, the direction of the local thermal current may be controlled by mechanical or electromagnetic means, which may lead to applications in information storage.

Recently, Halder \emph{et al.} [S. Halder \emph{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{122}, 040403 (2019)] present two sets of strong nonlocality of orthogonal product states based on the local irreducibility. However, for a set of locally indistinguishable orthogonal entangled states, the remaining question is whether the states can reveal strong quantum nonlocality. Here we present a general definition of strong quantum nonlocality based on the local indistinguishability. Then, in $2 \otimes 2 \otimes 2$ quantum system, we show that a set of orthogonal entangled states is locally reducible but locally indistinguishable in all bipartitions, which means the states have strong nonlocality. Furthermore, we generalize the result in N-qubit quantum system, where $N\geqslant 3$. Finally, we also construct a class of strong nonlocality of entangled states in $d\otimes d\otimes \cdots \otimes d, d\geqslant 3$. Our results extend the phenomenon of strong nonlocality for entangled states.

Here we are interested to study the spin-1 particle i.e., electro-magnetic wave in curved space-time, say around black hole. After separating the equations into radial and angular parts, writing them according to the black hole geometry, say, Kerr black hole we solve them analytically. Finally we produce complete solution of the spin-1 particles around a rotating black hole namely in Kerr geometry. Obviously there is coupling between spin of the electro-magnetic wave and that of black hole when particles propagate in that space-time. So the solution will be depending on that coupling strength. This solution may be useful to study different other problems where the analytical results are needed. Also the results may be useful in some astrophysical contexts.

Relationship between the TC of smart meta-superconductor Bi(Pb)SrCaCuO and inhomogeneous phase content

A smart meta-superconductor Bi(Pb)SrCaCuO (B(P)SCCO) may increase the critical transition temperature (TC) of B(P)SCCO by electroluminescence (EL) energy injection of inhomogeneous phases. However, the increase amplitude {\Delta}TC ({\Delta}TC=TC-T(C,pure)) of TC is relatively small. In this study, a smart meta-superconductor B(P)SCCO with different matrix sizes was designed. Three kinds of raw materials with different particle sizes were used, and different series of Y2O3:Sm3+, Y2O3, Y2O3:Eu3+, and Y2O3:Eu3++Ag doped samples and pure B(P)SCCO were prepared. Results indicated that the TC of the Y2O3 or Y2O3:Sm3+ non-luminescent dopant doping sample is lower than that of pure B(P)SCCO. However, the TC of the Y2O3:Eu3++Ag or Y2O3:Eu3+ luminescent inhomogeneous phase doping sample is higher than that of pure B(P)SCCO. With the decrease of the raw material particle size from 30 to 5 {\mu}m, the particle size of the B(P)SCCO superconducting matrix in the prepared samples decreases, and the doping content of the Y2O3:Eu3++Ag or Y2O3:Eu3+ increases from 0.2% to 0.4%. Meanwhile, the increase of the inhomogeneous phase content enhances the {\Delta}TC. When the particle size of raw material is 5 {\mu}m, the doping concentration of the luminescent inhomogeneous phase can be increased to 0.4%. At this time, the zero-resistance temperature and onset transition temperature of the Y2O3:Eu3++Ag doped sample are 4 and 6.3 K higher than those of pure B(P)SCCO, respectively.

We introduce and study a class of partition functions of an elliptic free-fermionic face model. We study the partition functions with a triangular boundary using the off-diagonal $K$-matrix at the boundary (OS boundary), which was introduced by Kuperberg as a class of variants of the domain wall boundary partition functions. We find explicit forms of the partition functions with OS boundary using elliptic Pfaffians. We find two expressions based on two versions of Korepin's method, and we obtain an identity between two elliptic Pfaffians as a corollary.

Many dynamical systems -- from robots interacting with their surroundings to large-scale multiphysics systems -- involve a number of interacting subsystems. Toward the objective of learning composite models of such systems from data, we present i) a framework for compositional neural networks, ii) algorithms to train these models, iii) a method to compose the learned models, iv) theoretical results that bound the error of the resulting composite models, and v) a method to learn the composition itself, when it is not known a priori. The end result is a modular approach to learning: neural network submodels are trained on trajectory data generated by relatively simple subsystems, and the dynamics of more complex composite systems are then predicted without requiring additional data generated by the composite systems themselves. We achieve this compositionality by representing the system of interest, as well as each of its subsystems, as a port-Hamiltonian neural network (PHNN) -- a class of neural ordinary differential equations that uses the port-Hamiltonian systems formulation as inductive bias. We compose collections of PHNNs by using the system's physics-informed interconnection structure, which may be known a priori, or may itself be learned from data. We demonstrate the novel capabilities of the proposed framework through numerical examples involving interacting spring-mass-damper systems. Models of these systems, which include nonlinear energy dissipation and control inputs, are learned independently. Accurate compositions are learned using an amount of training data that is negligible in comparison with that required to train a new model from scratch. Finally, we observe that the composite PHNNs enjoy properties of port-Hamiltonian systems, such as cyclo-passivity -- a property that is useful for control purposes.

In a recent work [M. Jiang, M. Moeller, M. Berciu, and G. A. Sawatzky, Phys. Rev. B \textbf{101}, 035151 (2020)], the authors solved a model with a Cu impurity in an O-2p band as an approximation to the local electronic structure of a hole doped cuprate. One of their conclusions is that the ground-state has only $\sim 50$ \% overlap with a Zhang-Rice singlet (ZRS). This claim is based on the definition of the ZRS in a different representation, in which the charge fluctuations at the Cu site have been eliminated by a canonical transformation. The correct interpretation of the results, based on known low-energy reduction procedures for a multiband model including 3d$^8$ and 3d$^{10}$ configurations of Cu, indicates that this overlap is near 94 \%.

Time-Inconsistent Mean-Field Stochastic LQ Problem: Open-Loop Time-Consistent Control

This paper is concerned with the open-loop time-consistent solution of time-inconsistent mean-field stochastic linear-quadratic optimal control. Different from standard stochastic linear-quadratic problems, both the system matrices and the weighting matrices are dependent on the initial times, and the conditional expectations of the control and state enter quadratically into the cost functional. Such features will ruin Bellman's principle of optimality and result in the time-inconsistency of the optimal control. Based on the dynamical nature of the systems involved, a kind of open-loop time-consistent equilibrium control is investigated in this paper. It is shown that the existence of open-loop time-consistent equilibrium control for a fixed initial pair is equivalent to the solvability of a set of forward-backward stochastic difference equations with stationary conditions and convexity conditions. By decoupling the forward-backward stochastic difference equations, necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of linear difference equations and generalized difference Riccati equations are given for the existence of open-loop time-consistent equilibrium control with a fixed initial pair. Moreover, the existence of open-loop time-consistent equilibrium control for all the initial pairs is shown to be equivalent to the solvability of a set of coupled constrained generalized difference Riccati equations and two sets of constrained linear difference equations.

In addition, we prove that for controls that are not bang-bang, no such growth can be expected. Finally, we study the finite-element discretization, and prove error estimates of bang-bang controls in $L^1$-norms.

The paper investigates random fields in the ball. It studies three types of such fields: restrictions of scalar random fields in the ball to the sphere, spin, and vector random fields. The review of the existing results and new spectral theory for each of these classes of random fields are given. Examples of applications to classical and new models of these three types are presented. In particular, the Mat\'{e}rn model is used for illustrative examples. The derived spectral representations can be utilised to further study theoretical properties of such fields and to simulate their realisations. The obtained results can also find various applications for modelling and investigating ball data in cosmology, geosciences and embryology.

We say that a Cohen-Macaulay local ring has finite $\operatorname{\mathsf{CM}}_+$-representation type if there exist only finitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules that are not locally free on the punctured spectrum. In this paper, we consider finite $\operatorname{\mathsf{CM}}_+$-representation type from various points of view, relating it with several conjectures on finite/countable Cohen-Macaulay representation type. We prove in dimension one that the Gorenstein local rings of finite $\operatorname{\mathsf{CM}}_+$-representation type are exactly the local hypersurfaces of countable $\mathsf{CM}$-representation type, that is, the hypersurfaces of type $(\mathrm{A}_\infty)$ and $(\mathrm{D}_\infty)$. We also discuss the closedness and dimension of the singular locus of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of finite $\operatorname{\mathsf{CM}}_+$-representation type.

We have investigated the structural, electronic, mechanical, phononic, and superconducting properties of the Zr$_2$Ir compound with a body-centered tetragonal crystal structure using first-principles calculations. Our analysis reveals that the Zr$_2$Ir compound shows mechanical and dynamically stable by using with and without spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effect. After calculating some properties such as elastic constants, Bulk modulus, Young's modulus, Poisson ratio, Debye temperature, and sound velocity, we found that Zr$_2$Ir is ductile. When the elastic constants $C_{11}$ and $C_{33}$ are compared, it is determined that the situation changes in the opposite direction under the effect of SOC, that is, more compressibility along the x-axis turns into the z-axis. Here, the electronic band structure and intensity of the states calculated for the compound show a metallic character. The superconducting critical temperature ($T_c$) and electron-phonon coupling constant ($\lambda$) were found to be 7.50 K and 0.93 without SOC and 7.62 K and 0.96 with SOC, respectively. We determined that although the Zr$_2$Ir compound has a strong electron-phonon coupling regime, the inclusion of SOC slightly reduces its critical temperature and electron-phonon coupling constant.

We compare two closed-loop beamforming algorithms, one based on singular value decomposition (SVD) and the other based on equal diagonal QR decomposition (QRS). SVD has the advantage of parallelizing the MIMO channel, but each of the sub-channels has different gain. QRS has the advantage of having equal diagonal value for the decomposed channel, but the subchannels are not fully parallelized, hence requiring successive interference cancellation or other techniques to perform decoding. We consider a closed-loop system where the feedback information is a unitary beamforming matrix. Due to the discrete and limited modulation set, SVD may have inferior performance to QRS when no modulation set selection is performed. However, if the selection of modulation set is performed optimally, we show that SVD can outperform QRS.

In this paper, we explore a novel method for tomographic image reconstruction in the field of SPECT imaging. Deep Learning methodologies and more specifically deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) are employed in the new reconstruction method, which is referred to as "CNN Reconstruction - CNNR". For training of the CNNR Projection data from software phantoms were used. For evaluation of the efficacy of the CNNR method, both software and hardware phantoms were used. The resulting tomographic images are compared to those produced by filtered back projection (FBP) [1], the "Maximum Likelihood Expectation Maximization" (MLEM) [1] and ordered subset expectation maximization (OSEM) [2].

An algebro-geometric approach to representations of Sklyanin algebra is proposed. To each 2 \times 2 quantum L-operator an algebraic curve parametrizing its possible vacuum states is associated. This curve is called the vacuum curve of the L-operator. An explicit description of the vacuum curve for quantum L-operators of the integrable spin chain of XYZ type with arbitrary spin $\ell$ is given. The curve is highly reducible. For half-integer $\ell$ it splits into $\ell +{1/2}$ components isomorphic to an elliptic curve. For integer $\ell$ it splits into $\ell$ elliptic components and one rational component. The action of elements of the L-operator to functions on the vacuum curve leads to a new realization of the Sklyanin algebra by difference operators in two variables restricted to an invariant functional subspace.

We suggest to use insulating garnets doped by rare earth ions for measurements of nuclear anapole moments. A parity violating shift of the NMR frequency arises due to the combined effect of the lattice crystal field and the anapole moment of the rare-earth nucleus. We show that there are two different observable effects related to frequency: 1) A shift of the NMR frequency in an external electric field applied to the solid. The value of the shift is about \Delta \nu_1 ~ 10^{-5} Hz with E = 10 kV/cm; 2) A splitting of the NMR line into two lines. The second effect is independent of the external electric field. The value of the splitting is about \Delta \nu_2 ~ 0.5 Hz and it depends on the orientation of the crystal with respect to magnetic field. Both estimates are presented for a magnetic field of about 10 tesla. We also discuss a radiofrequency electric field and a static macroscopic magnetization caused by the nuclear anapole moment.

Single shot approaches have demonstrated tremendous success on various computer vision tasks. Finding good parameterizations for 6D object pose estimation remains an open challenge. In this work, we propose different novel parameterizations for the output of the neural network for single shot 6D object pose estimation. Our learning-based approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on two public benchmark datasets. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the pose estimates can be used for real-world robotic grasping tasks without additional ICP refinement.

We report the discovery of four kpc-scale binary AGNs. These objects were originally selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey based on double-peaked [O III] 4959,5007 emission lines in their fiber spectra. The double peaks could result from pairing active supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in a galaxy merger, or could be due to bulk motions of narrow-line region gas around a single SMBH. Deep near-infrared (NIR) images and optical slit spectra obtained from the Magellan 6.5 m and the APO 3.5 m telescopes strongly support the binary SMBH scenario for the four objects. In each system, the NIR images reveal tidal features and double stellar components with a projected separation of several kpc, while optical slit spectra show two Seyfert 2 nuclei spatially coincident with the stellar components, with line-of-sight velocity offsets of a few hundred km/s. These objects were drawn from a sample of only 43 objects, demonstrating the efficiency of this technique to find kpc-scale binary AGNs.

We study an effective theory of QCD at high density in detail, including the finite temperature effects and the leading order correction in $1/\mu$ expansion. We investigate the Cooper pair gap equation and find that the color-flavor locking phase is energetically preferred at high density. We also find the color-superconducting phase transition occurs in dense quark matter when the chemical potential is larger than $250\pm 100~{\rm MeV}$ and the temperature is lower than 0.57 times the Cooper pair gap in the leading order in the hard-dense-loop approximation. The quark-neutrino four-Fermi coupling and the quark-axion coupling receive significant corrections in dense quark matter.

Disentangled Generation Network for Enlarged License Plate Recognition and A Unified Dataset

License plate recognition plays a critical role in many practical applications, but license plates of large vehicles are difficult to be recognized due to the factors of low resolution, contamination, low illumination, and occlusion, to name a few. To overcome the above factors, the transportation management department generally introduces the enlarged license plate behind the rear of a vehicle. However, enlarged license plates have high diversity as they are non-standard in position, size, and style. Furthermore, the background regions contain a variety of noisy information which greatly disturbs the recognition of license plate characters. Existing works have not studied this challenging problem. In this work, we first address the enlarged license plate recognition problem and contribute a dataset containing 9342 images, which cover most of the challenges of real scenes. However, the created data are still insufficient to train deep methods of enlarged license plate recognition, and building large-scale training data is very time-consuming and high labor cost. To handle this problem, we propose a novel task-level disentanglement generation framework based on the Disentangled Generation Network (DGNet), which disentangles the generation into the text generation and background generation in an end-to-end manner to effectively ensure diversity and integrity, for robust enlarged license plate recognition. Extensive experiments on the created dataset are conducted, and we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in three representative text recognition frameworks.

The FETI-DP, BDDC and P-FETI-DP preconditioners are derived in a particulary simple abstract form. It is shown that their properties can be obtained from only on a very small set of algebraic assumptions. The presentation is purely algebraic and it does not use any particular definition of method components, such as substructures and coarse degrees of freedom. It is then shown that P-FETI-DP and BDDC are in fact the same. The FETI-DP and the BDDC preconditioned operators are of the same algebraic form, and the standard condition number bound carries over to arbitrary abstract operators of this form. The equality of eigenvalues of BDDC and FETI-DP also holds in the minimalist abstract setting. The abstract framework is explained on a standard substructuring example.

In the early 1990s, Borcea-Voisin orbifolds were some of the ear- liest examples of Calabi-Yau threefolds shown to exhibit mirror symmetry. However, their quantum theory has been poorly investigated. We study this in the context of the gauged linear sigma model, which in their case encom- passes Gromov-Witten theory and its three companions (FJRW theory and two mixed theories). For certain Borcea-Voisin orbifolds of Fermat type, we calculate all four genus zero theories explicitly. Furthermore, we relate the I-functions of these theories by analytic continuation and symplectic transfor- mation. In particular, the relation between the Gromov-Witten and FJRW theories can be viewed as an example of the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence for complete intersections of toric varieties.

We resume the results from \cite{Vershik FA} on the classification of measurable functions in several variables, with some minor corrections of purely technical nature, and give a partial solution to the characterization problem of so--called matrix distributions, which are the metric invariants of measurable functions introduced in \cite{Vershik FA}. The characterization of these invariants of the ergodic measures on the space of matrices is closely related to Aldous' and Hoover's representation of row-- and column--exchangable distributions \cite{Aldous1981,Hoover1982}, but not in such an obvious way as was initially expected in \cite{Vershik FA}.

Dyon loops give a contribution to the matrix element for light-by-light scattering that violates parity and time-reversal symmetry. This effect induces an electric dipole moment for the electron, of order $M^{-2}$, where $M$ is the dyon mass. The current limit on the electric dipole moment of the electron yields the lower mass bound $M>{\cal O}(1)~\mbox{TeV}$.

Lie theory for the integration of Lie algebroids to Lie groupoids, on the one hand, and of Poisson manifolds to symplectic groupoids, on the other, has undergone tremendous developements in the last decade, thanks to the work of Mackenzie-Xu, Moerdijk-Mrcun, Cattaneo-Felder and Crainic-Fernandes, among others. In this thesis we study - part of - the categorified version of this story, namely the integrability of LA-groupoids (groupoid objects in the category of Lie algebroids), to double Lie groupoids (groupoid objects in the category of Lie groupoids) providing a first set of sufficient conditions for the integration to be possible. Mackenzie's double Lie structures arise naturally from lifting processes, such as the cotangent lift or the path prolongation, on ordinary Lie theoretic and Poisson geometric objects and we use them to study the integrability of quotient Poisson bivector fields, the relation between "local" and "global" duality of Poisson groupoids and Lie theory for Lie bialgebroids and Poisson groupoids.

Recent intriguing discussion of heat death by Kutrovatz is critically examined. It is shown that there exists another way of answering the heat death puzzle, already present in the ancient philosophical tradition. This alternative route relies not only on the final duration of time (which has been re-discovered in modern times), but also on the notion of observational self-selection, which has received wide publicity in the last several decades under the title of the anthropic principle(s). Although the questions Kutrovatz raises are important and welcome, there are several errors in his treatment of cosmology which marr his account of the entire topic. In addition, the nascent discipline of physical eschatology holds promise of answering the basic explanatory task concerning the future evolution of the universe without appealing to metaphysics. This is a completely novel feature in the history of science, in contradistinction to the historical examples discussed.

The formation of graphene on the SiC(000-1) surface (the C-face of the {0001} surfaces) has been studied, utilizing both disilane and neon environments. In both cases, the interface between the graphene and the SiC is found to be different than for graphene formation in vacuum. A complex low-energy electron diffraction pattern with rt(43) x rt(43)-R\pm7.6{\deg} symmetry is found to form at the interface. An interface layer consisting essentially of graphene is observed, and it is argued that the manner in which this layer covalently bonds to the underlying SiC produces the rt(43) x rt(43)-R\pm7.6{\deg} structure [i.e. analogous to the 6rt(3) x 6rt(3)-R30{\deg} "buffer layer" that forms on the SiC(0001) surface (the Si-face)]. Oxidation of the surface is found to modify (eliminate) the rt(43) x rt(43)-R\pm7.6{\deg} structure, which is interpreted in the same manner as the known "decoupling" that occurs for the Si-face buffer layer.

It was demonstrated recently that there is an upper bound of the Chern-Simons coupling of the five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory, beyond which the electrically charged AdS_2 \times S^3 vacuum solution becomes unstable. We generalize the result to a general class of gravity theories involving Chern-Simons and/or transgression terms and find their upper bounds for stability. We show that supergravities with AdS \times Sphere vacua satisfy the bounds.

Motivated by experimental advances on ultracold atoms coupled to a pumped optical cavity, we propose a scheme for synthesizing and observing the Kondo insulator in Fermi gases trapped in optical lattices. The synthetic Kondo phase arises from the screening of localized atoms coupled to mobile ones, which in our proposal is generated via the pumping laser as well as the cavity. By designing the atom-cavity coupling, it can engineer a nearest-neighbor-site Kondo coupling that plays an essential role for supporting topological Kondo phase. Therefore, the cavity-induced Kondo transition is associated with a nontrivial topological features, resulting in the coexistence of the superradiant and topological Kondo state. Our proposal can be realized with current technique, and thus has potential applications in quantum simulation of the topological Kondo insulator in ultracold atoms.

Christopher Nolan's latest blockbuster, Interstellar, has supposed a revolution not only from a cinematographically viewpoint, but also in the relation between current spectators and science. The aim of this report is to analyze some features presented in Interstellar. Basic Newtonian Physics shows how a planet orbiting a supermassive black hole like Gargantua must travel at 0.25 the speed of light in order to be in a stable orbit. Thus, this orbit is too far from the black hole to explain the time dilatation observed in Miller's Planet and an the orbit that could explain such a time dilatation is much more smaller that Roche's limit. Furthermore, I explain how enormous waves as Miller's Planet ones could appear by studying the tidal potential created by Gargantua, obtaining a wave of 200 kilometers high, but better results are obtained by considering a series of tsunamis in Miller's Planet.

We propose a novel a posteriori error assessment for the single-reference coupled-cluster (SRCC) method called the $S$-diagnostic. We provide a derivation of the $S$-diagnostic that is rooted in the mathematical analysis of different SRCC variants. We numerically scrutinized the $S$-diagnostic, testing its performance for (1) geometry optimizations, (2) electronic correlation simulations of systems with varying numerical difficulty, and (3) the square-planar copper complexes [CuCl$_4$]$^{2-}$, [Cu(NH$_3$)$_4$]$^{2+}$, and [Cu(H$_2$O)$_4$]$^{2+}$. Throughout the numerical investigations, the $S$-diagnostic is compared to other SRCC diagnostic procedures, that is, the $T_1$, $D_1$, and $D_2$ diagnostics as well as different indices of multi-determinantal and multi-reference character in coupled-cluster theory. Our numerical investigations show that the $S$-diagnostic outperforms the $T_1$, $D_1$, and $D_2$ diagnostics and is comparable to the indices of multi-determinantal and multi-reference character in coupled-cluster theory in their individual fields of applicability. The experiments investigating the performance of the $S$-diagnostic for geometry optimizations using SRCC reveal that the $S$-diagnostic correlates well with different error measures at a high level of statistical relevance. The experiments investigating the performance of the $S$-diagnostic for electronic correlation simulations show that the $S$-diagnostic correctly predicts strong multi-reference regimes. The $S$-diagnostic moreover correctly detects the successful SRCC computations for [CuCl$_4$]$^{2-}$, [Cu(NH$_3$)$_4$]$^{2+}$, and [Cu(H$_2$O)$_4$]$^{2+}$, which have been known to be misdiagnosed by $T_1$ and $D_1$ diagnostics in the past. This shows that the $S$-diagnostic is a promising candidate for an a posteriori diagnostic for SRCC calculations.

The orbital angular momentum ($L_q$) of the proton is studied by employing the extended constituent quark model. Contributions from different flavors, namely, up, down, strange, and charm quarks in the proton are investigated. Probabilities of the intrinsic $q\bar{q}$ pairs are calculated using a $^{3}P_{0}$ transition operator to fit the sea flavor asymmetry $I_a=\bar{d}-\bar{u}=0.118\pm0.012$ of the proton. Our numerical results lead to $L_q=0.158 \pm 0.014$, in agreement with $4/3I_a=0.157 \pm 0.016$, and consistent with findings based on various other approaches.

We calculate radiative corrections to the flavor-changing neutral current process K --> pi l+ l-, both for charged and neutral kaon decays. While the soft-photon approximation is shown to work well for the muon channels, we discuss the necessity of further phase space cuts with electrons in the final state. It is also shown how to transfer our results to other decays such as eta --> gamma l+ l- or omega --> pi0 l+ l-.

Live image-based neurosurgical guidance and roadmap generation using unsupervised embedding

Advanced minimally invasive neurosurgery navigation relies mainly on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) guidance. MRI guidance, however, only provides pre-operative information in the majority of the cases. Once the surgery begins, the value of this guidance diminishes to some extent because of the anatomical changes due to surgery. Guidance with live image feedback coming directly from the surgical device, e.g., endoscope, can complement MRI-based navigation or be an alternative if MRI guidance is not feasible. With this motivation, we present a method for live image-only guidance leveraging a large data set of annotated neurosurgical videos.First, we report the performance of a deep learning-based object detection method, YOLO, on detecting anatomical structures in neurosurgical images. Second, we present a method for generating neurosurgical roadmaps using unsupervised embedding without assuming exact anatomical matches between patients, presence of an extensive anatomical atlas, or the need for simultaneous localization and mapping. A generated roadmap encodes the common anatomical paths taken in surgeries in the training set. At inference, the roadmap can be used to map a surgeon's current location using live image feedback on the path to provide guidance by being able to predict which structures should appear going forward or backward, much like a mapping application. Even though the embedding is not supervised by position information, we show that it is correlated to the location inside the brain and on the surgical path. We trained and evaluated the proposed method with a data set of 166 transsphenoidal adenomectomy procedures.

A panel of large number of common Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) distributed across an entire porcine genome has been widely used to represent genetic variability of pig. With the advent of SNP-array technology, a genome-wide genetic profile of a specimen can be easily observed. Among the large number of such variations, there exist a much smaller subset of the SNP panel that could equally be used to correctly identify the corresponding breed. This work presents a SNP selection heuristic that can still be used effectively in the breed classification process. The proposed feature selection was done by the approach of combining a filter method and a wrapper method--information gain method and genetic algorithm--plus a feature frequency selection step, while classification was done by support vector machine. The approach was able to reduce the number of significant SNPs to 0.86 % of the total number of SNPs in a swine dataset and provided a high classification accuracy of 94.80 %.

The re-emergence of the 0.99 $\mu$m FeH feature in brown dwarfs of early- to mid-T spectral type has been suggested as evidence for cloud disruption where flux from deep, hot regions below the Fe cloud deck can emerge. The same mechanism could account for color changes at the L/T transition and photometric variability. We present the first observations of spectroscopic variability of brown dwarfs covering the 0.99 $\mu$m FeH feature. We observed the spatially resolved very nearby brown dwarf binary WISE J104915.57-531906.1 (Luhman 16AB), a late-L and early-T dwarf, with HST/WFC3 in the G102 grism at 0.8-1.15 $\mu$m. We find significant variability at all wavelengths for both brown dwarfs, with peak-to-valley amplitudes of 9.3% for Luhman 16B and 4.5% for Luhman 16A. This represents the first unambiguous detection of variability in Luhman 16A. We estimate a rotational period between 4.5 and 5.5 h, very similar to Luhman 16B. Variability in both components complicates the interpretation of spatially unresolved observations. The probability for finding large amplitude variability in any two brown dwarfs is less than 10%. Our finding may suggest that a common but yet unknown feature of the binary is important for the occurrence of variability. For both objects, the amplitude is nearly constant at all wavelengths except in the deep K I feature below 0.84 $\mu$m. No variations are seen across the 0.99 $\mu$m FeH feature. The observations lend strong further support to cloud height variations rather than holes in the silicate clouds, but cannot fully rule out holes in the iron clouds. We re-evaluate the diagnostic potential of the FeH feature as a tracer of cloud patchiness.

We report the development of a technique to measure heat capacity at large uniaxial pressure using a piezoelectric-driven device generating compressive and tensile strain in the sample. Our setup is optimized for temperatures ranging from 8 K down to millikelvin. Using an AC heat-capacity technique we are able to achieve an extremely high resolution and to probe a homogeneously strained part of the sample. We demonstrate the capabilities of our setup on the unconventional superconductor Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. By replacing thermometer and adjusting the remaining setup accordingly the temperature regime of the experiment can be adapted to other temperature ranges of interest.

We study the communication over Finite State Channels (FSCs), where the encoder and the decoder can control the availability or the quality of the noise-free feedback. Specifically, the instantaneous feedback is a function of an action taken by the encoder, an action taken by the decoder, and the channel output. Encoder and decoder actions take values in finite alphabets, and may be subject to average cost constraints. We prove capacity results for such a setting by constructing a sequence of achievable rates, using a simple scheme based on 'code tree' generation, that generates channel input symbols along with encoder and decoder actions. We prove that the limit of this sequence exists. For a given block length and probability of error, we give an upper bound on the maximum achievable rate. Our upper and lower bounds coincide and hence yield the capacity for the case where the probability of initial state is positive for all states. Further, for stationary indecomposable channels without intersymbol interference (ISI), the capacity is given as the limit of normalized directed information between the input and output sequence, maximized over an appropriate set of causally conditioned distributions. As an important special case, we consider the framework of 'to feed or not to feed back' where either the encoder or the decoder takes binary actions, which determine whether current channel output will be fed back to the encoder, with a constraint on the fraction of channel outputs that are fed back. As another special case of our framework, we characterize the capacity of 'coding on the backward link' in FSCs, i.e. when the decoder sends limited-rate instantaneous coded noise-free feedback on the backward link. Finally, we propose an extension of the Blahut-Arimoto algorithm for evaluating the capacity when actions can be cost constrained, and demonstrate its application on a few examples.

Ageing mechanisms of the U-5\,\%wtNb system have been investigated on samples exposed to temperatures of 150$\,^{\circ}$C for up to 5000\,hours. A variety of surface and bulk analytic techniques have been used to investigate phase, chemical and crystallographic changes. Characterisation of microstructural evolution was carried out through secondary electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). This investigation suggests crystallographic defects such as twinning furthers the martensitic tendencies with ageing. Resizing of the lattice and shuffling of atoms results in a small progression from the $\alpha''$ towards the $\alpha'$ phase.

Long-period comet C/2018 F4 (PANSTARRS) was observed to show duplicity of its inner region in 2020 September, suggestive of a splitting event. We here present analyses of our observations of the comet taken from the LOOK project and the University of Hawaii 2.2 m telescope after the discovery of the splitting. The two fragments Components A and B, estimated to be $\sim\!60$ m to 4 km in radius, remained highly similar to each other in terms of brightness, colour, and dust morphology throughout our observing campaign from 2020 September to 2021 December. Our fragmentation model yielded that the two components split at a relative speed of $3.00 \pm 0.18$ m s$^{-1}$ in 2020 late April, implying a specific energy change of $\left(5.3 \pm 2.8 \right) \times 10^3$ J kg$^{-1}$, and that Component B was subjected to a stronger nongravitational acceleration than Component A in both the radial and normal directions of the orbit. The obtained splitting time is broadly consistent with the result from the dust morphology analysis, which further suggested that the dominant dust grains were millimeter-sized and ejected at speed $\sim\!2$ m s$^{-1}$. We postulate that the pre-split nucleus of the comet consisted of two lobes resembling the one of 67P, or that the comet used to be a binary system like main-belt comet 288P. Regardless, we highlight the possibility of using observations of split comets as a feasible manner to study the bilobate shape or binarity fraction of cometary nuclei.

We propose a method for downlink coordinated multipoint (DL CoMP) in heterogeneous fifth generation New Radio (NR) networks. The primary contribution of our paper is an algorithm to enhance the trigger of DL CoMP using online machine learning. We use support vector machine (SVM) classifiers to enhance the user downlink throughput in a realistic frequency division duplex network environment. Our simulation results show improvement in both the macro and pico base station downlink throughputs due to the informed triggering of the multiple radio streams as learned by the SVM classifier.

The Oprema (Optikrechenmaschine = computer for optical calculations) was a relay computer whose development was initiated by Herbert Kortum and which was designed and built by a team under the leadership of Wilhelm Kaemmerer at Carl Zeiss Jena (CZJ) in 1954 and 1955. Basic experiments, design and construction of machine-1 were all done, partly concurrently, in the remarkably short time of about 14 months. Shortly after the electronic G 2 of Heinz Billing in Goettingen it was the 7th universal computer in Germany and the 1st in the GDR. The Oprema consisted of two identical machines. One machine consisted of about 8,300 relays, 45,000 selenium rectifiers and 250 km cable. The main reason for the construction of the Oprema was the computational needs of CZJ, which was the leading company for optics and precision mechanics in the GDR. During its lifetime (1955-1963) the Oprema was applied by CZJ and a number of other institutes and companies in the GDR. The paper presents new details of the Oprema project and of the arithmetic operations implemented in the Oprema. Additionally, it covers briefly the lives of the two protagonists, W. Kaemmerer and H. Kortum, and draws some comparisons with other early projects, namely Colossus, ASCC/Mark 1 and ENIAC. Finally, it discusses the question, whether Kortum is a German computer pioneer.

Developing neural network image classification models often requires significant architecture engineering. In this paper, we study a method to learn the model architectures directly on the dataset of interest. As this approach is expensive when the dataset is large, we propose to search for an architectural building block on a small dataset and then transfer the block to a larger dataset. The key contribution of this work is the design of a new search space (the "NASNet search space") which enables transferability. In our experiments, we search for the best convolutional layer (or "cell") on the CIFAR-10 dataset and then apply this cell to the ImageNet dataset by stacking together more copies of this cell, each with their own parameters to design a convolutional architecture, named "NASNet architecture". We also introduce a new regularization technique called ScheduledDropPath that significantly improves generalization in the NASNet models. On CIFAR-10 itself, NASNet achieves 2.4% error rate, which is state-of-the-art. On ImageNet, NASNet achieves, among the published works, state-of-the-art accuracy of 82.7% top-1 and 96.2% top-5 on ImageNet. Our model is 1.2% better in top-1 accuracy than the best human-invented architectures while having 9 billion fewer FLOPS - a reduction of 28% in computational demand from the previous state-of-the-art model. When evaluated at different levels of computational cost, accuracies of NASNets exceed those of the state-of-the-art human-designed models. For instance, a small version of NASNet also achieves 74% top-1 accuracy, which is 3.1% better than equivalently-sized, state-of-the-art models for mobile platforms. Finally, the learned features by NASNet used with the Faster-RCNN framework surpass state-of-the-art by 4.0% achieving 43.1% mAP on the COCO dataset.

We present the QCD analysis of D-parameter distribution in near-to-planar 3-jet e+e- annihilation events. We derive the all-order resummed perturbative prediction and the leading power suppressed non-perturbative corrections both to the mean value and the distribution. Here non-perturbative corrections are larger than in 2-jet shape observables, so that higher order non-perturbative effects could be relevant. Experimental data (not yet available) are needed in order to cast light on this important point. The technique we develop aims at improving the accuracy of the theoretical description of multi-jet ensembles, in particular in hadron-hadron collisions.

Strong-coupling expansion is performed for the lattice phi^4 model in 1+1 dimensions. Because the strong-coupling limit itself is not solvable, we employed numerical calculations so as to set up unperturbed eigensystems. Restricting the number of Hilbert-space bases, we performed linked-cluster expansion up to eleventh order. We carried out alternative simulation by means of the density-matrix renormalization group. Thereby, we confirmed that our series-expansion data with a convergence-acceleration trick are in good agreement with the simulation result. Through the analytic continuation to the domain of negative biquadratic interaction, we obtain the false-vacuum decay rate. Contrary to common belief that tunnelling phenomenon lies out of perturbative treatments, our series expansion reproduces the instanton-theory behaviour for high potential barrier. For shallow barrier, on the contrary, our result tells that the relaxation is no more described by instanton, but the decay rate acquires notable enhancement.

Accurate real-time assessment of power systems voltage stability has been an active area of research in the past few decades. In the past decade, after the development of phasor measurement units (PMU), a lot of discussions has been going on phasor measurement techniques for real-time voltage stability. The fundamental idea behind these methods is to find the Thevenin equivalents of the system, and then determine the voltage stability margin based on the equivalent circuits. Some approaches also include the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), for online monitoring of voltage stability margins. These methods are really fast as compared to the other methods. It has been shown that if we can obtain the phase angles and voltage magnitude in real-time from the phasor measurement units (PMU), then the voltage stability margins can be obtained in real-time and we can initiate voltage stability control methods. We are going to discuss Thevenin's equivalent methods and Artificial Intelligence methods in detail in this paper. We will also introduce the traditional methods which were earlier used for power systems stability assessment such as Time Domain methods, Static Methods, and Sensitivity methods. We are going to finally compare these methods and try to give general guidance on choosing a power stability method.

What if deep neural networks can learn from sparsity-inducing priors? When the networks are designed by combining layer modules (CNN, RNN, etc), engineers less exploit the inductive bias, i.e., existing well-known rules or prior knowledge, other than annotated training data sets. We focus on employing sparsity-inducing priors in deep learning to encourage the network to concisely capture the nature of high-dimensional data in an unsupervised way. In order to use non-differentiable sparsity-inducing norms as loss functions, we plug their proximal mappings into the automatic differentiation framework. We demonstrate unsupervised learning of U-Net for background subtraction using low-rank and sparse priors. The U-Net can learn moving objects in a training sequence without any annotation, and successfully detect the foreground objects in test sequences.

We investigated the complexation of thermoresponsive anionic poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNiPAM) microgels and cationic $\epsilon$-polylysine ($\epsilon$-PLL) chains. By combining electrophoresis, light scattering, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dielectric spectroscopy (DS) we studied the adsorption of $\epsilon$-PLL onto the microgel networks and its effect on the stability of the suspensions. We show that the volume phase transition (VPT) of the microgels triggers a large polyion adsorption. Two interesting phenomena with unique features occur: a temperature-dependent microgel overcharging and a complex reentrant condensation. The latter may occur at fixed polyion concentration, when temperature is raised above the VPT of microgels, or by increasing the number density of polycations at fixed temperature. TEM and DS measurements unambiguously show that short PLL chains adsorb onto microgels and act as electrostatic glue above the VPT. By performing thermal cycles, we further show that polyion-induced clustering is a quasi-reversible process: within the time of our experiments large clusters form above the VPT and partially re-dissolve as the mixtures are cooled down. Finally we give a proof that the observed phenomenology is purely electrostatic in nature: an increase of the ionic strength gives rise to the polyion desorption from the microgel outer shell.

We imagine shining light on a lump of cold dense quark matter, in the CFL phase and therefore a transparent insulator. We calculate the angles of reflection and refraction, and the intensity of the reflected and refracted light. Although the only potentially observable context for this phenomenon (reflection of light from and refraction of light through an illuminated quark star) is unlikely to be realized, our calculation casts new light on the old idea that confinement makes the QCD vacuum behave as if filled with a condensate of color-magnetic monopoles.

We consider the problem of learning the structure of a high dimensional precision matrix under sparsity assumptions. We propose to use a shrinkage prior, called the DL-graphical prior based on the Dirichlet-Laplace prior used for the Gaussian mean problem. A posterior sampling scheme based on Gibbs sampling is also provided along with theoretical guarantees of the method by obtaining the posterior convergence rate of the precision matrix.

Progressive Energy-Based Cooperative Learning for Multi-Domain Image-to-Image Translation

This paper studies a novel energy-based cooperative learning framework for multi-domain image-to-image translation. The framework consists of four components: descriptor, translator, style encoder, and style generator. The descriptor is a multi-head energy-based model that represents a multi-domain image distribution. The components of translator, style encoder, and style generator constitute a diversified image generator. Specifically, given an input image from a source domain, the translator turns it into a stylised output image of the target domain according to a style code, which can be inferred by the style encoder from a reference image or produced by the style generator from a random noise. Since the style generator is represented as an domain-specific distribution of style codes, the translator can provide a one-to-many transformation (i.e., diversified generation) between source domain and target domain. To train our framework, we propose a likelihood-based multi-domain cooperative learning algorithm to jointly train the multi-domain descriptor and the diversified image generator (including translator, style encoder, and style generator modules) via multi-domain MCMC teaching, in which the descriptor guides the diversified image generator to shift its probability density toward the data distribution, while the diversified image generator uses its randomly translated images to initialize the descriptor's Langevin dynamics process for efficient sampling.

We have investigated thermodynamic and dynamic properties as well as the dielectric constant of water-metha\-nol model mixtures in the entire range of composition by using constant pressure molecular dynamics simulations at ambient conditions. The SPC/E and TIP4P/Ew water models are used in combination with the OPLS united atom modelling for methanol. Changes of the average number of hydrogen bonds between particles of different species and of the fractions of differently bonded molecules are put in correspondence with the behavior of excess mixing volume and enthalpy, of self-diffusion coefficients and rotational relaxation times. From the detailed analyses of the results obtained in this work, we conclude that an improvement of the description of an ample set of properties of water-methanol mixtures can possibly be reached, if a more sophisticated, carefully parameterized, e.g., all atom, model for methanol is used. Moreover, exploration of parametrization of the methanol force field, with simultaneous application of different combination rules for methanol-water cross interactions, is required.
