Automatic generation of software from some form of specification has been a long standing goal of computer science research. To date successful results have been reported for the production of relatively small programs. This paper presents Zoea which is a simple programming language that allows software to be generated from a specification format that closely resembles a set of automated functional tests. Zoea incorporates a number of advances that enable it to generate software that is large enough to have commercial value. Zoea also allows programs to be composed to form still larger programs. As a result Zoea can be used to produce software of any size and complexity. An overview of the core Zoea language is provided together with a high level description of the symbolic AI based Zoea compiler.

A pictorial atlas of the spectroscopic evolution at optical wavelengths is presented for the first 18 days of the 2021 outburst of the recurrent nova RS Oph, prior to the emergence of high ionization emission lines. The spectra presented here have been obtained at daily cadence with the Asiago 1.22m + B&C (3200-7900 Ang, 2.3 \AA/pix) and Varese 0.84m + Echelle telescopes (4250-8900 \AA, resolving power 18,000). The spectra have been fully calibrated in IRAF, absolutely fluxed, and heliocentric corrected. The Echelle spectra have been also corrected for telluric absorptions.

Propagation of chaos for topological interactions by a coupling technique

We consider a system of particles which interact through a jump process. The jump intensities are functions of the proximity rank of the particles, a type of interaction referred to as topological in the literature. Such interactions have been shown relevant for the modelling of bird flocks. We show that, in the large number of particles limit and under minimal smoothness assumptions on the data, the model converges to a kinetic equation which was derived in earlier works both formally and rigorously under more stringent regularity assumptions. The proof relies on the coupling method which assigns to the particle and limiting processes a joint process posed on the cartesian product of the two configuration spaces of the former processes. By appropriate estimates in a suitable Wasserstein metric, we show that the distance between the two processes tends to zero as the number of particles tends to infinity, with an error typical of the law of large numbers.

We present joint NuSTAR and XMM-Newton observations of the bright, variable quasar IRAS 13349+2438. This combined dataset shows two clear iron absorption lines at 8 and 9 keV, which are most likely associated with two layers of mildly relativistic blueshifted absorption, with velocities of 0.14c and 0.27c. We also find strong evidence for a series of Ly$\alpha$ absorption lines at intermediate energies in a stacked XMM-Newton EPIC-pn spectrum, at the same blueshift as the lower velocity iron feature. This is consistent with a scenario where an outflowing wind is radially stratified, so faster, higher ionization material is observed closer to the black hole, and cooler, slower material is seen from streamlines at larger radii.

The impact of van der Waals interaction on the electronic structure between a pentacene monolayer and a graphite surface was investigated. Upon cooling the monolayer, newly formed dispersive bands, showing the constant final state nature overlapping with the non-dispersive, discrete molecular orbital state, is observed by low-energy angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The dispersive band consists of positive and negative intensities depending on the final state energy, indicating Fano resonance involving a discrete molecular state that couples a continuum state upon photoionization. A wave-function overlap is demonstrated according to their larger spread in unoccupied states even at the weakly bounded interface by Fano spectral analysis.

Ramanujan's Master theorem states that, under suitable conditions, the Mellin transform of a power series provides an interpolation formula for the coefficients of this series. Based on the duality of Riemannian symmetric spaces of compact and noncompact type inside a common complexification, we prove an analogue of Ramanujan's Master Theorem for the spherical Fourier transform of a spherical Fourier series. This extend the results proven by Bertram for Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank-one.

We propose a novel architecture for Graph Neural Networks that is inspired by the idea behind Tree Kernels of measuring similarity between trees by taking into account their common substructures, named fragments. By imposing a series of regularization constraints to the learning problem, we exploit a pooling mechanism that incorporates such notion of fragments within the node soft assignment function that produces the embeddings. We present an extensive experimental evaluation on a collection of sentence classification tasks conducted on several argument mining corpora, showing that the proposed approach performs well with respect to state-of-the-art techniques.

Absorbing ball in $H^{1}(\mho)$ is obtained for the strong solution to the three dimensional viscous moist primitive equations under the natural assumption $Q_{1},Q_{2}\in L^{2}(\mho)$ which is weaker than the assumption $Q_{1},Q_{2}\in H^{1}(\mho)$ in $\cite{GH2}$. In view of the structure of the manifold and the special geometry involved with vertical velocity, the continuity of the strong solution in $H^{1}(\mho)$ is established with respect to time and initial data. To obtain the existence of the global attractor for the moist primitive equations, the common method is to obtain the absorbing ball in $H^{2}(\mho)$ for the strong solution to the equations. But it is difficult due to the complex structure of the moist primitive equations. To overcome the difficulty, we try to use Aubin-Lions lemma and the continuous property of the strong solutions to the moist primitive equations to prove the the existence of the global attractor which improves the result, the existence of weak attractor, in $\cite{GH2}$.

The realistic probability distributions of a previous article are applied to the reconstruction of tracks in constant magnetic field. The complete forms and their schematic approximations produce excellent momentum estimations, drastically better than standard fits. A simplified derivation of one of our probability distributions is illustrated. The momentum reconstructions are compared with standard fits (least squares) with two different position algorithms: the eta-algorithm and the two-strip center of gravity. The quality of our results are expressed as the increase of the magnetic field and signal-to-noise ratio that overlap the standard fit reconstructions with ours best distributions. The data and the simulations are tuned on the tracker of a running experiment and its double sided microstrip detectors, here each detector side is simulated to measure the magnetic bending. To overlap with our best distributions, the magnetic field must be increased by a factor 1.5 for the least squares based on the eta-algorithm and 1.8 for the two-strip center of gravity for the low noise side, and 1.8 and 2.0 for the high noise side. The signal-to-noise ratio must be increased by 1.6 for the low noise side and 2.2 for the high noise side (eta-algorithms). The fits, built on the positioning with the center of gravity, are not modified by a reduction of the signal-to-noise ratio.}

Topological insulators are a novel class of quantum materials in which time-reversal symmetry, relativistic (spin-orbit) effects and an inverted band structure result in electronic metallic states on the surfaces of bulk crystals. These helical states exhibit a Dirac-like energy dispersion across the bulk bandgap, and they are topologically protected. Recent theoretical proposals have suggested the existence of topological crystalline insulators, a novel class of topological insulators in which crystalline symmetry replaces the role of time-reversal symmetry in topological protection [1,2]. In this study, we show that the narrow-gap semiconductor Pb(1-x)Sn(x)Se is a topological crystalline insulator for x=0.23. Temperature-dependent magnetotransport measurements and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrate that the material undergoes a temperature-driven topological phase transition from a trivial insulator to a topological crystalline insulator. These experimental findings add a new class to the family of topological insulators. We expect these results to be the beginning of both a considerable body of additional research on topological crystalline insulators as well as detailed studies of topological phase transitions.

Inspired by the multiverse scenario, we study a heterotic dark energy model in which there are two parts, the first being the cosmological constant and the second being the holographic dark energy, thus this model is named the $\Lambda$HDE model. By studying the $\Lambda$HDE model theoretically, we find that the parameters $d$ and $\Omega_{hde}$ are divided into a few domains in which the fate of the universe is quite different. We investigate dynamical behaviors of this model, and especially the future evolution of the universe. We perform fitting analysis on the cosmological parameters in the $\Lambda$HDE model by using the recent observational data. We find the model yields $\chi^2_{\rm min}=426.27$ when constrained by $\rm Planck+SNLS3+BAO+HST$, comparable to the results of the HDE model (428.20) and the concordant $\Lambda$CDM model (431.35). At 68.3\% CL, we obtain $-0.07<\Omega_{\Lambda0}<0.68$ and correspondingly $0.04<\Omega_{hde0}<0.79$, implying at present there is considerable degeneracy between the holographic dark energy and cosmological constant components in the $\Lambda$HDE model.

The Role of Distributional Overlap on the Precision Gain of Bounds for Generalization

Over the past ten years, propensity score methods have made an important contribution to improving generalizations from studies that do not select samples randomly from a population of inference. However, these methods require assumptions and recent work has considered the role of bounding approaches that provide a range of treatment impact estimates that are consistent with the observable data. An important limitation to bound estimates is that they can be uninformatively wide. This has motivated research on the use of propensity score stratification to narrow bounds. This article assesses the role of distributional overlap in propensity scores on the effectiveness of stratification to tighten bounds. Using the results of two simulation studies and two case studies, I evaluate the relationship between distributional overlap and precision gain and discuss the implications when propensity score stratification is used as a method to improve precision in the bounding framework.

We model jets in low-luminosity (FR I) radio galaxies as intrinsically symmetrical, axisymmetric, decelerating relativistic flows with transverse velocity gradients. This allows us to derive velocity fields and the three-dimensional distributions of magnetic-field ordering and rest-frame emissivity. A conservation-law analysis, combining the kinematic model with X-ray observations of the surrounding IGM, gives the profiles of internal density, pressure, Mach number and entrainment rate along the jets. We summarize our recently-published results on 3C 31 and outline new work on other sources and adiabatic jet models.

Improving empirical interatomic potentials for predicting thermophysical properties by using an irreducible derivatives approach: The case of thorium dioxide
null
null

cond-mat.mtrl-sci
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
The accuracy of physical property predictions using classical molecular dynamics simulations is determined by the quality of the empirical interatomic potentials (EIPs). We introduce a training approach for EIPs, based on direct comparisons of the second- and third-order interatomic force constants (IFCs) between EIP and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. This work's unique aspect is the utilization of irreducible derivatives (IDs) of the total energy, which leverage on the symmetry of the crystalline structure and provide a minimal representation of the IFCs. Our approach is tailored toward accurate predictions of thermal conductivity, thus requiring knowledge of both harmonic and anharmonic IFCs by matching second- and third-order displacement derivatives, whereas second-order strain derivatives are needed for determining the elastic constants. We demonstrate this approach as an efficient and robust manner in which to train EIPs for predicting phonons and related properties, by optimizing parameters of an embedded-atom method potential for ThO$_2$, which is used as a model system for fluorite oxides. Our ID-trained EIP provides thermophysical properties in great agreement with DFT, and outperforms previously widely utilized EIP for ThO$_2$ in phonon dispersion and thermal conductivity calculations. It also provides reasonable estimates of thermal expansion and the formation energies of simple defects.

The influence of the isospin-breaking $\pi^0\!\!-\!\eta\!-\!\eta'$ mixing effect on the $CP$-asymmetries of $B\to K\pi$ processes is examined for the first time. It is found that this mixing effect brings a large uncertainty both to the $CP$-asymmetry sum rule of $B\to K\pi$ processes and the $CP$-asymmetry difference of the $B^+\to K^+\pi^0$ and $B^0\to K^+\pi^-$, obscuring the significance of the $K\pi$-puzzle. This uncertainty can be so large that it is even possible to explain the $K\pi$-puzzle by the $\pi^0\!\!-\!\eta\!-\!\eta'$ mixing effect {\it alone}.

The harmonic numbers are the sequence 1, 1+1/2, 1+1/2+1/3, ... Their asymptotic difference from the sequence of the natural logarithm of the positive integers is Euler's constant gamma. We define a family of natural generalizations of the harmonic numbers. The jth iterated harmonic numbers are a sequence of rational numbers that nests the previous sequences and relates in a similar way to the sequence of the jth iterate of the natural logarithm of positive integers. The analogues of several well-known properties of the harmonic numbers also hold for the iterated harmonic numbers, including a generalization of Euler's constant. We reproduce the proof that only the first harmonic number is an integer and, providing some numeric evidence for the cases j = 2 and j = 3, conjecture that the same result holds for all iterated harmonic numbers. We also review another proposed generalization of harmonic numbers.

We prove that the corona product of two graphs has no Laplacian perfect state transfer whenever the first graph has at least two vertices. This complements a result of Coutinho and Liu who showed that no tree of size greater than two has Laplacian perfect state transfer. In contrast, we prove that the corona product of two graphs exhibits Laplacian pretty good state transfer, under some mild conditions. This provides the first known examples of families of graphs with Laplacian pretty good state transfer. Our result extends of the work of Fan and Godsil on double stars to the Laplacian setting. Moreover, we also show that the corona product of any cocktail party graph with a single vertex graph has Laplacian pretty good state transfer, even though odd cocktail party graphs have no perfect state transfer.

We discuss the possibility of geometrizing interactions by exploiting the "principle of solidarity" between space-time and the physical phenomena occurring in it (formulated by the Italian matematician B. Finzi in 1955). This is accomplished by means of a deformation of the Minkowski metric, implemented by assuming that the metric coefficients depend on the energy of the process considered. Such a formalism ("Deformed Special Relativity") allows one, among the others, to deal with the breakdown of Lorentz invariance and to recover it in a generalized sense.

A general time-inconsistent optimal control problem is considered for stochastic differential equations with deterministic coefficients. Under suitable conditions, a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman type equation is derived for the equilibrium value function of the problem. Well-posedness and some properties of such an equation is studied, and time-consistent equilibrium strategies are constructed. As special cases, the linear-quadratic problem and a generalized Merton's portfolio problem are investigated.

Explainable AI (XAI) is widely viewed as a sine qua non for ever-expanding AI research. A better understanding of the needs of XAI users, as well as human-centered evaluations of explainable models are both a necessity and a challenge. In this paper, we explore how HCI and AI researchers conduct user studies in XAI applications based on a systematic literature review. After identifying and thoroughly analyzing 85 core papers with human-based XAI evaluations over the past five years, we categorize them along the measured characteristics of explanatory methods, namely trust, understanding, fairness, usability, and human-AI team performance. Our research shows that XAI is spreading more rapidly in certain application domains, such as recommender systems than in others, but that user evaluations are still rather sparse and incorporate hardly any insights from cognitive or social sciences. Based on a comprehensive discussion of best practices, i.e., common models, design choices, and measures in user studies, we propose practical guidelines on designing and conducting user studies for XAI researchers and practitioners. Lastly, this survey also highlights several open research directions, particularly linking psychological science and human-centered XAI.

We propose a novel mathematical method to construct an exact polytropic sphere in self-gravitating hydrostatic equilibrium, improving the non-linear Poisson equation. The central boundary condition for the present equation requires a ratio of gas pressure to total one at the centre, which is uniquely identified by the whole mass and molecular weight of the system. The special solution derived from the Lane-Emden equation can be reproduced. This scheme is now available for modelling the molecular cloud cores in interstellar media. The mass-radius relation of the first core is found to be consistent with the recent results of radiation hydrodynamic simulations.

Recent advances in self-supervised learning (SSL) in computer vision are primarily comparative, whose goal is to preserve invariant and discriminative semantics in latent representations by comparing siamese image views. However, the preserved high-level semantics do not contain enough local information, which is vital in medical image analysis (e.g., image-based diagnosis and tumor segmentation). To mitigate the locality problem of comparative SSL, we propose to incorporate the task of pixel restoration for explicitly encoding more pixel-level information into high-level semantics. We also address the preservation of scale information, a powerful tool in aiding image understanding but has not drawn much attention in SSL. The resulting framework can be formulated as a multi-task optimization problem on the feature pyramid. Specifically, we conduct multi-scale pixel restoration and siamese feature comparison in the pyramid. In addition, we propose non-skip U-Net to build the feature pyramid and develop sub-crop to replace multi-crop in 3D medical imaging. The proposed unified SSL framework (PCRLv2) surpasses its self-supervised counterparts on various tasks, including brain tumor segmentation (BraTS 2018), chest pathology identification (ChestX-ray, CheXpert), pulmonary nodule detection (LUNA), and abdominal organ segmentation (LiTS), sometimes outperforming them by large margins with limited annotations.

We describe the reversible intercalation of Na under graphene on Ir(111) by photo-dissociation of a previously adsorbed NaCl overlayer. After room temperature evaporation, NaCl adsorbs on top of graphene forming a bilayer. With a combination of electron diffraction and photoemission techniques we demonstrate that the NaCl overlayer dissociates upon a short exposure to an X-ray beam. As a result, chlorine desorbs while sodium intercalates under the graphene, inducing an electronic decoupling from the underlying metal. Low energy electron diffraction shows the disappearance of the moir\'e pattern when Na intercalates between graphene and iridium. Analysis of the Na 2p core-level by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows a chemical change from NaCl to metallic buried Na at the graphene/Ir interface. The intercalation-decoupling process leads to a n-doped graphene due to the charge transfer from the Na, as revealed by constant energy angle resolved X-ray photoemission maps. Moreover, the process is reversible by a mild annealing of the samples without damaging the graphene.

We prove exponential spectral localization in a two-particle lattice Anderson model, with a short-range interaction and external random i.i.d. potential, at sufficiently low energies. The proof is based on the multi-particle multi-scale analysis developed earlier by Chulaevsky and Suhov (2009) in the case of high disorder. Our method applies to a larger class of random potentials than in Aizenman and Warzel (2009) where dynamical localization was proved with the help of the fractional moment method.

An effective aggregation of node features into a graph-level representation via readout functions is an essential step in numerous learning tasks involving graph neural networks. Typically, readouts are simple and non-adaptive functions designed such that the resulting hypothesis space is permutation invariant. Prior work on deep sets indicates that such readouts might require complex node embeddings that can be difficult to learn via standard neighborhood aggregation schemes. Motivated by this, we investigate the potential of adaptive readouts given by neural networks that do not necessarily give rise to permutation invariant hypothesis spaces. We argue that in some problems such as binding affinity prediction where molecules are typically presented in a canonical form it might be possible to relax the constraints on permutation invariance of the hypothesis space and learn a more effective model of the affinity by employing an adaptive readout function. Our empirical results demonstrate the effectiveness of neural readouts on more than 40 datasets spanning different domains and graph characteristics. Moreover, we observe a consistent improvement over standard readouts (i.e., sum, max, and mean) relative to the number of neighborhood aggregation iterations and different convolutional operators.

In this article we consider the initial value problem of the binormal flow with initial data given by curves that are regular except at one point where they have a corner. We prove that under suitable conditions on the initial data a unique regular solution exists for strictly positive and strictly negative times. Moreover, this solution satisfies a weak version of the equation for all times and can be seen as a perturbation of a suitably chosen self-similar solution. Conversely, we also prove that if at time t = 1 a small regular perturbation of a self-similar solution is taken as initial condition then there exists a unique solution that at time t = 0 is regular except at a point where it has a corner with the same angle as the one of the self-similar solution. This solution can be extended for negative times. The proof uses the full strength of the previous papers [9], [2], [3] and [4] on the study of small perturbations of self-similar solutions. A compactness argument is used to avoid the weighted conditions we needed in [4], as well as a more refined analysis of the asymptotic in time and in space of the tangent and normal vectors.

We discuss the propagation of spectral line and continuum radiation in a clumpy medium and give general expressions for the observed absorption or emission from a cloud population. We show that the affect of the medium clumpiness can usually be characterised by a single number multiplying the mean column opacity. Our result provides a simpler proof and generalisation of the result of Martin et al (1984). The formalism provides a simple way to understand the effects of clumping on molecular line profiles and ratios, for example how clumping effects the interpretation of 13CO(1-0) to 12CO(1-0) line ratios. It can also be used as a propagation operator in physical models of clumpy media where the incident radiation effects the spectral line emissivity. We are working to extend the formalism to the propagation of masers in a clumpy medium, but in this case there are special difficulties because formal expectation values are not characteristic of observations because they are biased by rare events.

Lying at the lower edge of the `island of inversion', neutron-rich Fluorine isotopes ($^{29-31}$F) provide a curious case to study the configuration mixing in this part of the nuclear landscape. Recent studies have suggested that a prospective two-neutron halo in the dripline nucleus $^{31}$F could be linked to the occupancy of the $pf$ intruder configurations. Focusing on configuration mixing, matter radii and neutron-neutron ($nn$) correlations in the ground-state of $^{31}$F, we explore various scenarios to analyze its possible halo nature as well as the low-lying electric dipole ($E$1) response within a three-body approach. We use an analytical, transformed harmonic oscillator basis under the aegis of a hyperspherical formalism to construct the ground state three-body wave function of $^{31}$F. The $^{31}$F ground-state configuration mixing and its matter radius are computed for different choices of the $^{30}$F structure coupled to the valence neutron. The admixture of {$p_{3/2}$, $d_{3/2}$, and $f_{7/2}$} components is found to play an important role, favouring the dominance of inverted configurations with dineutron spreads for two-neutron halo formation. The increase in matter radius with respect to the core radius, $\Delta r \geqslant$ 0.30 fm and the dipole distributions along with the integrated $B(E1)$ strengths of $\geqslant$ 2.6 $e^2$fm$^2$ are large enough to be compatible with other two-neutron halo nuclei. Three-body results for $^{31}$F indicate a large spatial extension in its ground state due to the inversion of the energy levels of the normal shell model scheme. The increase is augmented by and is proportional to the extent of the $p_{3/2}$ component in the wave function. Additionally, the enhanced dipole distributions and large $B(E1)$ strengths all point to the two-neutron halo character of $^{31}$F.

We study the dynamics of a single excitation in a Heisenberg spin-chain subjected to a sequence of periodic pulses from an external, parabolic, magnetic field. We show that, for experimentally reasonable parameters, a pair of counter-propagating coherent states are ejected from the centre of the chain. We find an illuminating correspondence with the quantum time evolution of the well-known paradigm of quantum chaos, the Quantum Kicked Rotor (QKR). From this we can analyse the entanglement production and interpret the ejected coherent states as a manifestation of so-called `accelerator modes' of a classically chaotic system.

For the antisymmetric solutions, the corresponding bialgebraic structures, double constructions of Frobenius algebras and properties are given explicitly.Besides, we determine some related compatible dendriform algebras and solutions of their D-equations. Using symmetric solutions of these equations, we build the double constructions of related Connes cocycles.

It leads to dual equalities and characterizations of the minimizers without constraint qualification. As an example of application, the Monge-Kantorovich optimal transport problem is solved in great detail. In particular, the optimal transport plans are characterized without restriction. This characterization improves the already existing literature on the subject.

The absorption and dispersion of probe light is studied in an unified framework of three-level system, with coherent laser driving and incoherent pumping and relaxation. The electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and Autler-Townes splitting (ATS) are studied in details. In the phase diagram of the unified three-level system, there are distinct parameter regimes corresponding to different lineshapes and mechanisms, and the incoherent transition could control the cross-over between EIT and ATS. The incoherent control of the three-level system enables the investigation of various phenomena in quantum optics, and is beneficial for experiments of light-matter interactions.

In this work, we propose a method for solving Kolmogorov hypoelliptic equations based on Fourier transform and Feynman-Kac formula. We first explain how the Feynman-Kac formula can be used to compute the fundamental solution to parabolic equations with linear or quadratic potential. Then applying these results after a Fourier transform we deduce the computation of the solution to a a first class of Kolmogorov hypoelliptic equations. Then we solve partial differential equations obtained via Feynman-Kac formula from the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck generator. Also, a new small time approximation of the solution to Kolmogorov hypoelliptic equations is provided. We finally present the results of numerical experiments to check the practical efficiency of this approximation.

The hydrophobic effect (HE) is commonly associated with the demixing of oil and water at ambient conditions and plays the leading role in determining the structure and stability of biomolecular assembly in aqueous solutions. On the molecular scale HE has an entropic origin. It is believed that hydrophobic particles induce order in the surrounding water by reducing the volume of con- figuration space available for hydrogen bonding. Here we show with computer simulation results that this traditional picture is not correct. Analyzing collective fluctuations in water clusters we are able to provide a fundamentally new picture of HE based on pronounced many-body correlations affecting the switching of hydrogen bonds between molecules. These correlations emerge as a non-local compensation of reduced fluctuations of local electrostatic fields in the presence of an apolar solute.

We make a few elementary observations that relate directly the items mentioned in the title. In particular, we note that when one superimposes the random current model related to the Ising model with an independent Bernoulli percolation model with well-chosen weights, one obtains exactly the FK-percolation (or random cluster model) associated with the Ising model. We also point out that this relation can be interpreted via loop-soups, combining the description of the sign of a Gaussian Free Field on a discrete graph knowing its square (and the relation of this question with the FK-Ising model) with the loop-soup interpretation of the random current model.

We propose an implementation for quantum logic and computing using trapped atomic spins of two different species, interacting via direct magnetic spin-spin interaction. In this scheme, the spins (electronic or nuclear) of distantly spaced trapped neutral atoms serve as the qubit arrays for quantum information processing and storage, and the controlled interaction between two spins, as required for universal quantum computing, is implemented in a three step process that involves state swapping with a movable auxiliary spin.

A holomorphic Lagrangian fibration on a holomorphically symplectic manifold is a holomorphic map with Lagrangian fibers. It is known that a given compact manifold admits only finitely many holomorphic symplectic structures, up to deformation. We prove that a given compact manifold with $b_2 \geq 7$ admits only finitely many deformation types of holomorphic Lagrangian fibrations. We also prove that all known hyperkahler manifolds are never Kobayashi hyperbolic.

We extend the use of Bell-inequalities to $\Phi \to K^0 \bar{K^0}$ decays by exploiting analogies and differences to the well-known and experimentally verified singlet-spin case. Contrasting with other analyses, our Bell-inequalities are violated by quantum mechanics and can strictly be derived from local realistic theories. In principle, quantum mechanics could then be tested using unstable, oscillating states governed by a CP-violating Hamiltonian.

Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments exploit the clock-like behaviour of an array of millisecond pulsars, with the goal of detecting low-frequency gravitational waves. PTA experiments have been in operation over the last decade, led by groups in Europe, Australia, and North America. These experiments use the most sensitive radio telescopes in the world, extremely precise pulsar timing models and sophisticated detection algorithms to increase the sensitivity of PTAs. No detection of gravitational waves has been made to date with this technique, but PTA upper limits already contributed to rule out some models of galaxy formation. Moreover, a new generation of radio telescopes, such as the Five hundred metre Aperture Spherical Telescope and, in particular, the Square Kilometre Array, will offer a significant improvement to the PTA sensitivity. In this article, we review the basic concepts of PTA experiments, and discuss the latest results from the established PTA collaborations.

Identifying the properties of the first generation of seeds of massive black holes is key to understanding the merger history and growth of galaxies. Mergers between ~100 solar mass seed black holes generate gravitational waves in the 0.1-10Hz band that lies between the sensitivity bands of existing ground-based detectors and the planned space-based gravitational wave detector, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). However, there are proposals for more advanced detectors that will bridge this gap, including the third generation ground-based Einstein Telescope and the space-based detector DECIGO. In this paper we demonstrate that such future detectors should be able to detect gravitational waves produced by the coalescence of the first generation of light seed black-hole binaries and provide information on the evolution of structure in that era. These observations will be complementary to those that LISA will make of subsequent mergers between more massive black holes. We compute the sensitivity of various future detectors to seed black-hole mergers, and use this to explore the number and properties of the events that each detector might see in three years of observation. For this calculation, we make use of galaxy merger trees and two different seed black hole mass distributions in order to construct the astrophysical population of events. We also consider the accuracy with which networks of future ground-based detectors will be able to measure the parameters of seed black hole mergers, in particular the luminosity distance to the source. We show that distance precisions of ~30% are achievable, which should be sufficient for us to say with confidence that the sources are at high redshift.

The optical transitions between spin-polarized bands of the quasi-two dimensional Rashba system BiTeI are investigated using polarization resolved resonant Raman spectroscopy. We detect chiral excitations between states with opposite helicity and compare spectra to calculations within a three-band model. Using the resonant Raman excitation profile, we deduce the Rashba parameters and band gaps of the higher conduction bands near the Fermi level, and compare the parameters to values obtained by ab initio density function theory (DFT).

$M_n(\mathbb{C})$ denotes the set of $n$ by $n$ complex matrices. Consider continuous time quantum semigroups $\mathcal{P}_t= e^{t\, \mathcal{L}}$, $t \geq 0$, where $\mathcal{L}:M_n(\mathbb{C}) \to M_n(\mathbb{C})$ is the infinitesimal generator. If we assume that $\mathcal{L}(I)=0$, we will call $e^{t\, \mathcal{L}}$, $t \geq 0$ a quantum Markov semigroup. Given a stationary density matrix $\rho= \rho_{\mathcal{L}}$, for the quantum Markov semigroup $\mathcal{P}_t$, $t \geq 0$, we can define a continuous time stationary quantum Markov process, denoted by $X_t$, $t \geq 0.$ Given an {\it a priori} Laplacian operator $\mathcal{L}_0:M_n(\mathbb{C}) \to M_n(\mathbb{C})$, we will present a natural concept of entropy for a class of density matrices on $M_n(\mathbb{C})$. Given an Hermitian operator $A:\mathbb{C}^n\to \mathbb{C}^n$ (which plays the role of an Hamiltonian), we will study a version of the variational principle of pressure for $A$. A density matrix $\rho_A$ maximizing pressure will be called an equilibrium density matrix. From $\rho_A$ we will derive a new infinitesimal generator $\mathcal{L}_A$. Finally, the continuous time quantum Markov process defined by the semigroup $\mathcal{P}_t= e^{t\, \mathcal{L}_A}$, $t \geq 0$, and an initial stationary density matrix, will be called the continuous time equilibrium quantum Markov process for the Hamiltonian $A$. It corresponds to the quantum thermodynamical equilibrium for the action of the Hamiltonian $A$.

To obtain new types of exact travelling wave solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations, a number of approximate methods are known in the literature. In this study, we extend the class of auxiliary equations of Fibonnacci&Lucas type equations. The proposed Fibonnacci&Lucas approximation method produces many new solutions. Consequently, we introduce new exact travelling wave solutions of some physical systems in terms of these new solutions of the Fibonacci&Lucas type equation. In addition to using different ansatz, we use determine different balancing principle to obtain optimal solutions.

The spatial dependence of luminosity and mass functions of evolved open clusters is discussed in this work using J and H 2MASS photometry. The target objects are the overlooked open cluster NGC2180 and the intermediate-age open cluster NGC3680. We conclude that, although in an advanced dynamical state (mass segregated), NGC3680 does not present strong signs of dissolution. On the other hand, NGC2180 presents flat, eroded LFs throughout its structure, indicating that in addition to mass segregation, Galactic tidal stripping has been effective in depleting this cluster of stars. Accordingly, NGC2180 may be the missing link between evolved open clusters and remnants. We study both clusters in the context of dynamical states estimated from diagnostic-diagrams involving photometric and structural parameters. Both clusters are dynamically evolved systems. In particular, NGC2180 is closer to open cluster remnants than NGC3680.

We conduct experiments with force-free magnetically-driven rigid helical swimmers in Newtonian and viscoelastic (Boger) fluids. By varying the sizes of the swimmer body and its helical tail, we show that the impact of viscoelasticity strongly depends on the swimmer geometry: it can lead to a significant increase of the swimming speed (up to a factor of five), a similar decrease (also up to a factor of five) or it can have approximately no impact. Analysis of our data along with theoretical modeling shows that the influence of viscoelasticity on helical propulsion is controlled by a snowman-like effect, previously reported for dumbbell swimmers, wherein the front-back asymmetry of the swimmer leads to a non-Newtonian elastic force that can either favor or hinder locomotion.

The {\it clique cover width} of $G$, denoted by $ccw(G)$, is the minimum value of the bandwidth of all graphs that are obtained by contracting the cliques in a clique cover of $G$ into a single vertex. For $i=1,2,...,d,$ let $G_i$ be a graph with $V(G_i)=V$, and let $G$ be a graph with $V(G)=V$ and $E(G)=\cap_{i=1}^d(G_i)$, then we write $G=\cap_{i=1}^dG_i$ and call each $G_i,i=1,2,...,d$ a factor of $G$. We are interested in the case where $G_1$ is chordal, and $ccw(G_i),i=2,3...,d$ for each factor $G_i$ is "small". Here we show a negative result. Specifically, let ${\hat G}(k,n)$ be the graph obtained by joining a set of $k$ apex vertices of degree $n^2$ to all vertices of an $n\times n$ grid, and then adding some possible edges among these $k$ vertices. We prove that if ${\hat G}(k,n)=\cap_{i=1}^dG_i$, with $G_1$ being chordal, then, $max_{2\le i\le d}\{ccw(G_i)\}\ge {n^{1\over d-1}\over 2.{(2c)}^{1\over {d-1}}}$, where $c$ is a constant. Furthermore, for $d=2$, we construct a chordal graph $G_1$ and a graph $G_2$ with $ccw(G_2)\le {n\over 2}+k$ so that ${\hat G}(k,n)=G_1\cap G_2$. Finally, let ${\hat G}$ be the clique sum graph of ${\hat G}(k_i, n_i), i=1,2,...t$, where the underlying grid is $n_i\times n_i$ and the sum is taken at apex vertices. Then, we show ${\hat G}=G_1\cap G_2$, where, $G_1$ is chordal and $ccw(G_2)\le \sum_{i=1}^t(n_i+k_i)$. The implications and applications of the results are discussed, including addressing a recent question of David Wood.

We are interested in the design of robust (or resilient) capacitated rooted Steiner networks in case of terminals with uniform demands. Formally, we are given a graph, capacity and cost functions on the edges, a root, a subset of nodes called terminals, and a bound k on the number of edge failures. We first study the problem where k = 1 and the network that we want to design must be a tree covering the root and the terminals: we give complexity results and propose models to optimize both the cost of the tree and the number of terminals disconnected from the root in the worst case of an edge failure, while respecting the capacity constraints on the edges. Second, we consider the problem of computing a minimum-cost survivable network, i.e., a network that covers the root and terminals even after the removal of any k edges, while still respecting the capacity constraints on the edges. We also consider the possibility of protecting a given number of edges. We propose three different formulations: a cut-set based formulation, a flow based one, and a bilevel one (with an attacker and a defender). We propose algorithms to solve each formulation and compare their efficiency.

In this paper, we review several important features of the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of spin glasses. Starting with the simplest experiments, we discuss the scaling laws used to describe the isothermal aging observed in spin glasses after a quench down to the low temperature phase. We report in particular new results on the sub-aging behaviour of spin glasses. We then discuss the rejuvenation and memory effects observed when a spin glass is submitted to temperature variations during aging, from the point of view of both energy landscape pictures and of real space pictures. We highlight the fact that both approaches point out the necessity of hierarchical processes involved in aging. Finally, we report an investigation of the effect of small temperature variations on aging in spin glass samples with various anisotropies which indicates that this hierarchy depends on the spin anisotropy.

We report neutron scattering studies on static magnetic orders and spin excitations in the Fe-based chalcogenide system Fe$_{1+\delta}$Se$_{x}$Te$_{1-x}$ with different Fe and Se compositions. Short-range static magnetic order with the "bicollinear" spin configuration is found in all non-superconducting samples, with strong low-energy magnetic excitations near the $(0.5,0)$ in-plane wave-vector (using the two-Fe unit cell) for Se doping up to 45%. When the static order disappears and bulk superconductivity emerges, the spectral weight of the magnetic excitations shifts to the region of reciprocal space near the in-plane wave-vector $(0.5,0.5)$, corresponding to the "collinear" spin configuration. Our results suggest that spin fluctuations associated with the collinear magnetic structure appear to be universal in all Fe-based superconductors, and there is a strong correlation between superconductivity and the character of the magnetic order/fluctuations in

We present the results of analysis of the X-ray transient source MAXI J1836-194 during its outburst in August 2011. MAXI GSC detected the source on 30th August 2011, when it started rising from the quiescence. We have studied the source using the observations of RXTE. In this paper, we study the temporal and spectral evolution of the source during the outburst. Spectral analysis shows that the source exhibits state transition to Hard Intermediate state(HIMS) and decays back to a Low/Hard state. The temporal analysis indicates the presence of QPOs during the hard intermediate state. We also observe correlation between the evolution of break frequency with respect to the spectral characteristics. We conclude that this is probably the second source after H 1743-322 which exhibits transition to HIMS but does not reach soft spectral state.

We study the influence of polarization effects in streaking by combined atto- and femtosecond pulses. The polarization-induced terms alter the streaking spectrum. The normal streaking spectrum, which maps to the vector potential of the femtosecond pulse, is modified by a contribution following the field instead. We show that polarization effects may lead to an apparent temporal shift, that needs to be properly accounted for in the analysis. The effect may be isolated and studied by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy from oriented polar molecules. We also show that polarization effects will lead to an apparent temporal shift of 50 as between photoelectrons from a 2p and 1s state in atomic hydrogen.

Relation between the number of leaves of a tree and its diameter

Let $L(n,d)$ denote the minimum possible number of leaves in a tree of order $n$ and diameter $d.$ In 1975 Lesniak gave the lower bound $B(n,d)=\lceil 2(n-1)/d\rceil$ for $L(n,d).$ When $d$ is even, $B(n,d)=L(n,d).$ But when $d$ is odd, $B(n,d)$ is smaller than $L(n,d)$ in general. For example, $B(21,3)=14$ while $L(21,3)=19.$ We prove that for $d\ge 2,$ $ L(n,d)=\left\lceil \frac{2(n-1)}{d}\right\rceil$ if $d$ is even and $L(n,d)=\left\lceil \frac{2(n-2)}{d-1}\right\rceil$ if $d$ is odd. The converse problem is also considered. Let $D(n,f)$ be the minimum possible diameter of a tree of order $n$ with exactly $f$ leaves. We prove that $D(n,f)=2$ if $n=f+1,$ $D(n,f)=2k+1$ if $n=kf+2,$ and $D(n,f)=2k+2$ if $kf+3\le n\le (k+1)f+1.$

We prove that, if $G$ is a second-countable topological group with a compatible right-invariant metric $d$ and $(\mu_{n})_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is a sequence of compactly supported Borel probability measures on $G$ converging to invariance with respect to the mass transportation distance over $d$ and such that $\left(\mathrm{spt} \, \mu_{n}, d\!\!\upharpoonright_{\mathrm{spt} \, \mu_{n}}, \mu_{n}\!\!\upharpoonright_{\mathrm{spt} \, \mu_{n}}\right)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ concentrates to a fully supported, compact $mm$-space $\left(X,d_{X},\mu_{X}\right)$, then $X$ is homeomorphic to a $G$-invariant subspace of the Samuel compactification of $G$. In particular, this confirms a conjecture by Pestov and generalizes a well-known result by Gromov and Milman on the extreme amenability of topological groups. Furthermore, we exhibit a connection between the average orbit diameter of a metrizable flow of an arbitrary amenable topological group and the limit of Gromov's observable diameters along any net of Borel probability measures UEB-converging to invariance over the group.

Dynamic Sparsity Is Channel-Level Sparsity Learner

Sparse training has received an upsurging interest in machine learning due to its tantalizing saving potential for the entire training process as well as inference. Dynamic sparse training (DST), as a leading sparse training approach, can train deep neural networks at high sparsity from scratch to match the performance of their dense counterparts. However, most if not all DST prior arts demonstrate their effectiveness on unstructured sparsity with highly irregular sparse patterns, which receives limited support in common hardware. This limitation hinders the usage of DST in practice. In this paper, we propose Channel-aware dynamic sparse (Chase), which for the first time seamlessly translates the promise of unstructured dynamic sparsity to GPU-friendly channel-level sparsity (not fine-grained N:M or group sparsity) during one end-to-end training process, without any ad-hoc operations. The resulting small sparse networks can be directly accelerated by commodity hardware, without using any particularly sparsity-aware hardware accelerators. This appealing outcome is partially motivated by a hidden phenomenon of dynamic sparsity: off-the-shelf unstructured DST implicitly involves biased parameter reallocation across channels, with a large fraction of channels (up to 60\%) being sparser than others. By progressively identifying and removing these channels during training, our approach translates unstructured sparsity to channel-wise sparsity. Our experimental results demonstrate that Chase achieves 1.7 X inference throughput speedup on common GPU devices without compromising accuracy with ResNet-50 on ImageNet. We release our codes in https://github.com/luuyin/chase.

We consider cosmological models in which the cosmology is related via analytic continuation to a Euclidean asymptotically AdS planar wormhole geometry defined holographically via a pair of three-dimensional Euclidean CFTs. We argue that these models can generically give rise to an accelerating phase for the cosmology due to the potential energy of scalar fields associated with relevant scalar operators in the CFT. We explain how cosmological observables are related to observables in the wormhole spacetime and argue that this leads to a novel perspective on naturalness puzzles in cosmology.

We report encapsulated C60 molecules on electron transport in carbon-nanotube peapod quantum dots. We find atomic-like behaviors with doubly degenerate electronic levels, which exist only around ground states, by single electron spectroscopy measured at low back-gate voltages (Vbg's). Correlation with presence of nearly free electrons (NFEs) unique to the peapods is discussed. In contrast, we find that encapsulated C60 molecules do not affect to single charging effect. Moreover, we find anomalously high values of powers observed in power laws in conductance versus energy relationships, which are strongly associated with the doubly degenerate levels. It is revealed that the powers originate from Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids via the occupied doubly degenerate levels. Encapsulated C60 molecules do not eliminate a ballistic charge transport in single-walled nanotubes.

Assuming suitable convergence properties for the Gromov-Witten potential of a Calabi-Yau manifold $X$ one may construct a polarized variation of Hodge structure over the complexified K\"ahler cone of $X$. In this paper we show that, in the case of fourfolds, there is a correspondence between ``quantum potentials'' and polarized variations of Hodge structures that degenerate to a maximally unipotent boundary point. Under this correspondence, the WDVV equations are seen to be equivalent to the Griffiths' trasversality property of a variation of Hodge structure.

We propose a method combining relational-logic representations with neural network learning. A general lifted architecture, possibly reflecting some background domain knowledge, is described through relational rules which may be handcrafted or learned. The relational rule-set serves as a template for unfolding possibly deep neural networks whose structures also reflect the structures of given training or testing relational examples. Different networks corresponding to different examples share their weights, which co-evolve during training by stochastic gradient descent algorithm. The framework allows for hierarchical relational modeling constructs and learning of latent relational concepts through shared hidden layers weights corresponding to the rules. Discovery of notable relational concepts and experiments on 78 relational learning benchmarks demonstrate favorable performance of the method.

We consider nucleosynthesis constraints on models which use chiral symmetry breaking as a basis for understanding very small Dirac neutrino masses. We show that present big-bang nucleosynthesis constraints impose a well-defined upper bound of 0.1eV on the neutrino masses. This bound may become several orders of magnitude more stringent in the future as our understanding of the observational constraints on nucleosynthesis improves. We discuss the phenomenological implications for neutrino dark matter, the solar neutrino problem and the atmospheric neutrino deficit.

Bound entanglement is the noisy entanglement which cannot be distilled to a singlet form. Thus it cannot be used alone for quantum communication purposes. Here we show that, nevertheless, the bound entanglement can be, in a sense, pumped into single pair of free entangled particles. It allows for teleportation via the pair with the fidelity impossible to achieve without support of bound entanglement. The result also suggests that the distillable entanglement may be not additive.

This paper investigates the use of prior computation to estimate the value function to improve sample efficiency in on-policy policy gradient methods in reinforcement learning. Our approach is to estimate the value function from prior computations, such as from the Q-network learned in DQN or the value function trained for different but related environments. In particular, we learn a new value function for the target task while combining it with a value estimate from the prior computation. Finally, the resulting value function is used as a baseline in the policy gradient method. This use of a baseline has the theoretical property of reducing variance in gradient computation and thus improving sample efficiency. The experiments show the successful use of prior value estimates in various settings and improved sample efficiency in several tasks.

A MINOS result seemed to hint a different anti-neutrino mass splitting and mixing angle with respect to the neutrino ones, offering a hint for a CPT violation in lepton sector. However more recent MINOS data reduced the neutrino-antineutrino differences leading to a narrow discrepancy almost compatible with no CPT violation, hard to be disentangled. Moreover last a few years of OPERA activity on tau appearance is still un-probed (one unique event). Both flavor muon-tau mixing, tau appearance and eventual CPT violation disentanglement need more tools to be enhanced. Atmospheric muon neutrino spectra and anisotropy in Deep Core at ten-tens GeV (yet unpublished) may test the muon-tau conversion but they can hardly reveal such last tiny MINOS CPT asymmetry. We show how the longest baseline neutrino oscillation available, crossing most of the Earth diameter, within an OPERA-like experiment from CERN (or FERMILAB) to ICECUBE-Deep Core neutrino detector at 21 GeV energy, may at best disentangle even last tiny CPT violation (within 6 sigma a year) while testing at highest rate tau-antitau appearance. We propose the muon neutrino disappearance or (for any CPT violation) the partial anti-muon appearance at the longest distances. Such a tuned detection experiment may lead to a clear and strong signature of tau or anti-tau generation (even within its neutral current noise background events): nearly one antitau or two tau a day. The tau appearance signal is above (or within) 10 sigma a year, even for 1% OPERA-like experiment. Peculiar configurations for theta_13 angle test and hierarchy neutrino mass test may also be addressed by a Deep Core-PINGU array detector observing electron neutrino shower at 6 GeV neutrino energy windows.

We examine the dynamics of an elastic string interacting with quenched disorder driven perpendicular and parallel to the string. We show that the string is the most disordered at the depinning transition but with increasing drive partial ordering is regained. For low drives the noise power is high and we observe a 1/f^2 noise signature crossing over to a white noise character with low power at higher drives. For the parallel driven moving string there is a finite transverse critical depinning force with the depinning transition occuring by the formation of running kinks.

Liftoff variation causes errors in eddy current measurement of nonmagnetic plates as well as magnetic plates. For nonmagnetic plates, previous work has been carried out to address the issue. In this paper, we follow a similar strategy, but try to reduce the lift-off effect on another index, zerocrossing frequency for magnetic plates. This modified index, termed as the compensated zero-crossing frequency, can be obtained from the measured multifrequency inductance spectral data using the algorithm we developed in this paper. Since the zero-crossing frequency can be compensated, the permeability of magnetic plates can finally be predicted by deriving the relation between the permeability and zero-crossing frequency from Dodd and Deeds method. We have derived the method through mathematical manipulation and verified it by both simulation and experimental data. The permeability error caused by liftoff can be reduced within 7.5%.

We study the $\gamma^* \gamma^*\to\eta_c$ transition form factor, $F_{\eta_c\gamma\gamma}(Q_1^2,Q_2^2),$ with the local-duality (LD) version of QCD sum rules. We analyse the extraction of this quantity from two different correlators, $<PVV>$ and $<AVV>,$ with $P,$ $A,$ and $V$ being the pseudoscalar, axial-vector, and vector currents, respectively. The QCD factorization theorem for $F_{\eta_c\gamma\gamma}(Q_1^2,Q_2^2)$ allows us to fix the effective continuum thresholds for the $<PVV>$ and $<AVV>$ correlators at large values of $Q^2=Q_2^2$ and some fixed value of $\beta\equiv Q_1^2/Q_2^2$. We give arguments that, in the region $Q^2\ge10$--$15 GeV^2$, the effective threshold should be close to its asymptotic value such that the LD sum rule provides reliable predictions for $F_{\eta_c\gamma\gamma}(Q_1^2,Q_2^2).$ We show that, for the experimentally relevant kinematics of one real and one virtual photon, the result of the LD sum rule for $F_{\eta_c\gamma}(Q^2)\equiv F_{\eta_c\gamma\gamma}(0,Q^2)$ may be well approximated by the simple monopole formula $F_{\eta_c\gamma}(Q^2)={2e_c^2N_cf_P}(M_V^2+Q^2)^{-1},$ where $f_P$ is the $\eta_c$ decay constant, $e^2_c$ is the $c$-quark charge, and the parameter $M_V$ lies in the mass range of the lowest $\bar cc$ vector states.

How to reach the collisional regime on a magnetically guided atomic beam

In this paper, we report our progress towards the realization of a continuous guided atomic beam in the degenerate regime. So far, we have coupled into a magnetic guide a flux of a few $10^{8}$ atoms/s at 60 cm/s with a propagation in the guide over more than 2 meters. At this stage, the collision rate is not high enough to start an efficient forced evaporative cooling. Here we describe a new approach to reach the collisional regime. It is based on a pulsed feeding of the magnetic guide at a high repetition rate. The overlap of the packets of atoms occurs in the guide and leads to a continuous guided beam. We discuss different ways to increase the collision rate of this beam while keeping the phase space density constant by shaping the external potential.

Second virial coefficients for helium-4 and helium-3 from accurate relativistic interaction potential

The second virial coefficient and the second acoustic virial coefficient for helium-4 and helium-3 are computed for a wide range of temperatures (0.5 - 1000K) using a highly accurate nonrelativistic interaction potential [M. Przybytek et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 123401 (2017)] and recalculated relativistic and quantum-electrodynamic components. The effects of the long-range retardation and of the nonadiabatic coupling of the nuclear and electronic motion are also taken into account. The results of our calculations represent at least fivefold improvement in accuracy compared to the previous ab initio work. The computed virial coefficients agree well with the most accurate recent measurements but have significantly smaller uncertainty.

Researchers use figures to communicate rich, complex information in scientific papers. The captions of these figures are critical to conveying effective messages. However, low-quality figure captions commonly occur in scientific articles and may decrease understanding. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end neural framework to automatically generate informative, high-quality captions for scientific figures. To this end, we introduce SCICAP, a large-scale figure-caption dataset based on computer science arXiv papers published between 2010 and 2020. After pre-processing - including figure-type classification, sub-figure identification, text normalization, and caption text selection - SCICAP contained more than two million figures extracted from over 290,000 papers. We then established baseline models that caption graph plots, the dominant (19.2%) figure type. The experimental results showed both opportunities and steep challenges of generating captions for scientific figures.

An electron diffraction technique is used to study the structure of clusters formed in an isentropically expanding supersonic argon jet. The formation of the hcp phase with increasing cluster size is reliably detected for the first time. Observations are made for mean cluster sizes N in the range from 1x10^3 to 8x10^4 atoms/cluster. An analysis of the shape of the diffraction peaks is carried out. It is found that in the range N <= 2x10^3 atoms/cluster, where the clusters are icosahedral, the profiles of the diffraction peaks are well approximated by a Lorentzian. For fcc clusters with N >= 3x10^3 atoms/cluster a better approximation is the standard Gaussian function. In the case N >= 1x10^4 atoms/cluster one observes peaks of the hcp phase in addition to the fcc peaks. The intensity of the hcp peaks increases with increasing cluster size, and for N = 8x10^4 atoms/cluster, the (110), (101), (103), and (202) peaks, characteristic only for the hcp phase, are clearly registered in addition to the fcc peaks. A possible mechanism for the formation of the hcp structure in Ar clusters is proposed.

Secret sharing is a cryptographic discipline in which the goal is to distribute information about a secret over a set of participants in such a way that only specific authorized combinations of participants together can reconstruct the secret. Thus, secret sharing schemes are systems of variables in which it is very clearly specified which subsets have information about the secret. As such, they provide perfect model systems for information decompositions. However, following this intuition too far leads to an information decomposition with negative partial information terms, which are difficult to interpret. One possible explanation is that the partial information lattice proposed by Williams and Beer is incomplete and has to be extended to incorporate terms corresponding to higher order redundancy. These results put bounds on information decompositions that follow the partial information framework, and they hint at where the partial information lattice needs to be improved.

In this paper, energy-efficient transmission schemes achieving maximal throughput over a finite time interval are studied in a problem setting including energy harvests, data arrivals and channel variation. The goal is to express the offline optimal policy in a way that facilitates a good online solution. We express any throughput maximizing energy efficient offline schedule (EE-TM-OFF) explicitly in terms of water levels. This allows per-slot real-time evaluation of transmit power and rate decisions, using estimates of the associated offline water levels. To compute the online power level, we construct a stochastic dynamic program that incorporates the offline optimal solution as a stochastic process. We introduce the "Immediate Fill" metric which provides a lower bound on the efficiency of any online policy with respect to the corresponding optimal offline solution. The online algorithms obtained this way exhibit performance close to the offline optimal, not only in the long run but also in short problem horizons, deeming them suitable for practical implementations.

Semiconductor lasers capable of generating a vortex beam with a specific orbital angular momentum (OAM) order are highly attractive for applications ranging from nanoparticle manipulation, imaging and microscopy to fibre and quantum communications. In this work, an electrically pumped OAM laser operating at telecom wavelengths is fabricated by monolithically integrating an optical vortex emitter with a distributed feedback (DFB) laser on the same InGaAsP/InP epitaxial wafer. A single-step dry etching process is adopted to complete the OAM emitter, equipped with specially designed top gratings. The vortex beam emitted by the integrated laser is captured, and its OAM mode purity characterized. The electrically pumped OAM laser eliminates the external laser required by silicon- or silicon-on-insulator (SOI)-based OAM emitters, thus demonstrating great potential for applications in communication systems and quantum domain.

Integration is indispensable, not only in mathematics, but also in a wide range of other fields. A deep learning method has recently been developed and shown to be capable of integrating mathematical functions that could not previously be integrated on a computer. However, that method treats integration as equivalent to natural language translation and does not reflect mathematical information. In this study, we adjusted the learning model to take mathematical information into account and developed a wide range of learning models that learn the order of numerical operations more robustly. In this way, we achieved a 98.80% correct answer rate with symbolic integration, a higher rate than that of any existing method. We judged the correctness of the integration based on whether the derivative of the primitive function was consistent with the integrand. By building an integrated model based on this strategy, we achieved a 99.79% rate of correct answers with symbolic integration.

We present cosmological hydrodynamic simulations performed to study evolution of galaxy population. The simulations follow timed release of mass, energy, and metals by stellar evolution and employ phenomenological treatments of supernova feedback, pre-supernova feedback modeled as feedback by radiation pressure from massive stars, and quenching of gas cooling in large halos. We construct the fiducial model so that it reproduces the observationally estimated galaxy stellar mass functions and the relationships between the galaxy stellar mass and the host halo mass from $z = 4$ to 0. We find that the fiducial model constructed this way naturally explains the cosmic star formation history, the galaxy downsizing, and the star formation rate and metallicity of the star-forming galaxies. The simulations without the quenching of the gas cooling in large halos overproduce massive galaxies at $z < 2$ and fail to reproduce galaxy downsizing. The simulations that do not employ the radiation pressure feedback from young stars predict too strong redshift evolution of the mass-metallicity relation. Furthermore, the slope of the relation becomes too steep at low redshift without the radiation pressure feedback. The metallicity dependence in the radiation pressure feedback is a key to explain the observed mass-metallicity relation. These facts indicate that these two processes in addition to supernova feedback are essential for galaxy evolution. Our simple phenomenological model is suitable to construct a mock galaxy sample to study physical properties of observed galaxy populations.

Bismuth (Bi) atomic layers are known as 2D topological materials with variety of the electronic structures and topological orders depending on the number of stacking layers. Recently, it is reported that few layers of Bi grown on semiconductor substrate InSb(111)B exhibit the Sierpi\'{n}ski-triangle (ST) fractal patterns on the surface. In this work, we have grown Bi layers on InSb(111)B and traced the evolution of the atomic and electronic structures of Bi. The surface atomic structures and growth modes were monitored by using reflective high-energy electron diffraction and core-level photoelectron spectroscopy. It is suggested that the single layer of the ST-phase Bi grows on InSb(111)B and the following Bi deposition causes layer-by-layer growth up to nominally 4 atomic layers. Diffuse band dispersion and quantum well states observed by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy are consistent with the small surface domains and variation of the thickness even during the layer-by-layer growth region. The further Bi evaporation changes the growth mode to the 3D island formation. The unveiled growth behavior of Bi on InSb(111)B would provide a new interesting playground to study 2D topological electronic structure of quasi-periodic 2D atomic layers.

The expansions are valid for $n$ large and $\alpha$ small or large, uniformly for unbounded real and complex values of $x$. The new expansions extend the range of computability of $L_n^{(\alpha)}(x)$ compared to previous expansions, in particular with respect to higher terms and large values of $\alpha$. Numerical evidence of their accuracy for real and complex values of $x$ is provided.

Dense deployments of Small Cells are required to deliver the capacity promised by 5G networks. In this paper we present SWAM, a system that builds on commodity Wi-Fi routers with multiple wireless interfaces to provide a wireless access infrastructure supporting multi-tenancy, mobility, and integrated wireless access and backhaul. An infrastructure provider can deploy inexpensive SWAM nodes to cover a given geographical area, and re-sell this capacity to provide on-demand connectivity for Mobile Network Operators. Our main contribution is the design of the SWAM datapath and control plane, which are inspired by the overlay techniques used to enable multi-tenancy in data-center networks. We prototype SWAM in an office wireless testbed, and validate experimentally its functionality.

Electrostatic moir\'e potential from twisted-hBN layers

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Moir\'e superlattices formed by vertically stacking van der Waals layers host a rich variety of correlated electronic phases and function as novel photonic materials. The moir\'e potential of the superlattice, however, is fixed by the interlayer coupling of the stacked functional layers (e.g. graphene) and dependent on carrier types (e.g. electrons or holes) and valleys (e.g. {\Gamma} vs. K). In contrast, twisted hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) layers are predicted to impose a periodic electrostatic potential that may be used to engineer the properties of an adjacent functional thin layer. Here, we show that this potential is described by a simple theory of electric polarization originating from the interfacial charge redistribution, validated by its dependence on supercell sizes and distance from the twisted interfaces. We demonstrate that the potential depth and profile can be further controlled by assembling a double moir\'e structure. When the twist angles are similar at the two interfaces, the potential is deepened by adding the potential from the two twisted interfaces, reaching ~ 400 meV. When the twist angles are dissimilar at the two interfaces, multi-level polarization states are observed. As an example of controlling a functional layer, we demonstrate how the electrostatic potential from a twisted hBN substrate impedes exciton diffusion in a semiconductor monolayer. These findings suggest exciting opportunities for engineering properties of an adjacent functional layer using the surface potential of a twisted hBN substrate.

Considering the adjacent spin operators $S^z_jS^z_{j+1}$ and $S^-_jS^-_{j+1}$ in the S=1/2 Heisenberg chain, we give a determinant representation of their form factors. The dynamical structure factors of the respective operators are computed over the whole Brillouin zone in several magnetic fields and the resulting signal is analyzed in terms of excitation types. Among other results, we find that the $S^z_jS^z_{j+1}$ dynamical structure factor carries a large weight of the 4-spinon excitations which are distinguishable from the 2-spinon signal because they are located outside the 2-spinon spectrum.

Can Uplink Transmissions Survive in Full-duplex Cellular Environments?

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
In-band full-duplex (FD) communication is considered a potential candidate to be adopted by the fifth generation (5G) cellular networks. FD communication renders the entire spectrum simultaneously accessible by uplink and downlink, and hence, is optimistically promoted to double the transmission rate. While this is true for a single communication link, cross-mode interference (i.e., interference between uplink and downlink) may diminish the full-duplexing gain. This paper studies FD operation in large-scale cellular networks with real base stations (BSs) locations and 3GPP propagation environment. The results show that the uplink is the bottleneck for FD operation due to the overwhelming cross-mode interference from BSs. Operating uplink and downlink on a common set of channels in an FD fashion improves the downlink rate but significantly degrades (over 1000-fold) the uplink rate. Therefore, we propose the $\alpha$-duplex scheme to balance the tradeoff between the uplink and downlink rates via adjustable partial overlap between uplink and downlink channels. The $\alpha$-duplex scheme can provide a simultaneous $30\%$ improvement in each of the uplink and downlink rates. To this end, we discuss the backward compatibility of the $\alpha$-duplex scheme with half-duplex user-terminals. Finally, we point out future research directions for FD enabled cellular networks.

This paper introduces provGen, a generator aimed at producing large synthetic provenance graphs with predictable properties and of arbitrary size. Synthetic provenance graphs serve two main purposes. Firstly, they provide a variety of controlled workloads that can be used to test storage and query capabilities of provenance management systems at scale. Secondly, they provide challenging testbeds for experimenting with graph algorithms for provenance analytics, an area of increasing research interest. provGen produces PROV graphs and stores them in a graph DBMS (Neo4J). A key feature is to let users control the relationship makeup and topological features of the graph, by providing a seed provenance pattern along with a set of constraints, expressed using a custom Domain Specific Language. We also propose a simple method for evaluating the quality of the generated graphs, by measuring how realistically they simulate the structure of real-world patterns.

Pyroxene is the principal host of Fe$^{3+}$ in basalt source regions, hosting 79 and 81% of the Fe$^{3+}$ in spinel and garnet lherzolite, respectively, with opx and cpx hosting 48% and 31%, respectively, of the total Fe$^{3+}$ in spinel peridotite. To better understand partitioning of Fe$^{3+}$ between pyroxene and melt we conducted experiments at 100 KPa with f$_{O2}$ controlled by CO-CO$_2$ gas mixes between $\Delta$QFM -1.19 to +2.06 in a system containing andesitic melt saturated with opx or cpx only. To produce large (100-150 $\mu$m), homogeneous pyroxenes, we employed a dynamic cooling technique with a 5-10$\deg$C/h cooling rate, and initial and final dwell temperatures 5-10$\deg$C and 20-30$^\circ$C super and sub-liquidus, respectively. Resulting pyroxene crystals have absolute variation in Al$_2$O$_3$ and TiO$_2$ <0.05 wt.% and <0.02 wt.%, respectively. Fe$^{3+}$/Fe$^T$ in pyroxenes and quenched glass were measured by XANES. We used a newly developed XANES calibration for cpx and opx by only selecting spectra with X-ray vibrating on the optic axial plane at $50 \pm 5^\circ$ to the crystallographic c axis. Values of DFe$^{3+}$ cpx/melt increase from 0.03 to 0.53 as fO2 increases from $\Delta$QFM -0.44 to 2.06, while DFe$^{3+}$ opx/melt remains unchanged at 0.26 between $\Delta$QFM -1.19 to +1.37. In comparison to natural peridotitic pyroxenes, Fe$^{3+}$/FeT in pyroxenes crystallized in this study are lower at similar f$_{O2}$, presumably owing to lower Al$^{3+}$ contents. This study shows that the existing thermodynamic models implemented in pMELTS and Perple_X over-predict the stability of Fe$^{3+}$ in pyroxenes, causing an anomalous reduced character to spinel peridotites at calculated conditions of MORB genesis.

A variational ansatz for momentum eigenstates of translation invariant quantum spin chains is formulated. The matrix product state ansatz works directly in the thermodynamic limit and allows for an efficient implementation (cubic scaling in the bond dimension) of the variational principle. Unlike previous approaches, the ansatz includes topologically non-trivial states (kinks, domain walls) for systems with symmetry breaking. The method is benchmarked using the spin-1/2 XXZ antiferromagnet and the spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnet and we obtain surprisingly accurate results.

In quantum statistical mechanics, Moyal's equation governs the time evolution of Wigner functions and of more general Weyl symbols that represent the density matrix of arbitrary mixed states. A formal solution to Moyal's equation is given by Marinov's path integral. In this paper we demonstrate that this path integral can be regarded as the natural link between several conceptual, geometric, and dynamical issues in quantum mechanics. A unifying perspective is achieved by highlighting the pivotal role which the response field, one of the integration variables in Marinov's integral, plays for pure states even. The discussion focuses on how the integral's semiclassical approximation relates to its strictly classical limit; unlike for Feynman type path integrals, the latter is well defined in the Marinov case. The topics covered include a random force representation of Marinov's integral based upon the concept of "Airy averaging", a related discussion of positivity-violating Wigner functions describing tunneling processes, and the role of the response field in maintaining quantum coherence and enabling interference phenomena. The double slit experiment for electrons and the Bohm-Aharonov effect are analyzed as illustrative examples. Furthermore, a surprising relationship between the instantons of the Marinov path integral over an analytically continued ("Wick rotated") response field, and the complex instantons of Feynman-type integrals is found. The latter play a prominent role in recent work towards a Picard-Lefschetz theory applicable to oscillatory path integrals and the resurgence program.

In a recent letter it has been shown that gauge theory with a dilaton provides linearly increasing gauge potentials from static or uniformly moving pointlike colour sources. This ensures confinement in the framework of no-pair equations. Here I would like to point out that a dilaton coupling both to the gauge curvature term and to fermion masses yields a linear potential with a scalar component and a dominant vector contribution.

We prove that cyclotomic Yokonuma--Hecke algebras of type A are cyclotomic quiver Hecke algebras and we give an explicit isomorphism with its inverse, using a similar result of Brundan and Kleshchev on cyclotomic Hecke algebras. The quiver we use is given by disjoint copies of cyclic quivers. We relate this work to an isomorphism of Lusztig.

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are good candidates to produce ultra-energy-efficient hardware. However, the performance of these models is currently behind traditional methods. Introducing multi-layered SNNs is a promising way to reduce this gap. We propose in this paper a new threshold adaptation system which uses a timestamp objective at which neurons should fire. We show that our method leads to state-of-the-art classification rates on the MNIST dataset (98.60%) and the Faces/Motorbikes dataset (99.46%) with an unsupervised SNN followed by a linear SVM. We also investigate the sparsity level of the network by testing different inhibition policies and STDP rules.
