Results are reported from a search for non-standard-model Higgs boson decays to pairs of new light bosons, each of which decays into the oppositely charged dimuon final state. The new bosons may be produced either promptly or via a decay chain. The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.3 inverse femtobarns of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV, recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2011. Such Higgs boson decays are predicted in several scenarios of new physics, including supersymmetric models with extended Higgs sectors or hidden valleys. Thus, the results of the search are relevant for establishing whether the new particle observed in Higgs boson searches at the LHC has the properties expected for a standard model Higgs boson. No excess of events is observed with respect to the yields expected from standard model processes. A model-independent upper limit of 0.86 +/- 0.06 fb on the product of the cross section times branching fraction times acceptance is obtained. The results, which are applicable to a broad spectrum of models, are compared with the predictions of two benchmark scenarios as functions of a Higgs boson mass larger than 86 GeV and of a new light boson mass within the range 0.25-3.55 GeV.

We extend Voloshin's recent analysis of charmed and beauty hyperon decays based on SU(3) symmetry and heavy quark effective theory, by introducing a rather moderate model-dependence, in order to obtain more predictive power, e.g. the values of lifetimes of the (\Lambda_{b},\Xi_{b}) hyperon triplet and the lifetime of \Omega_{b}. In this way we obtain an improvement of the ratio \tau(\Lambda_{b})/\tau(B_{d}^{0}) \sim 0.9 and the hierarchy of lifetimes \tau(\Lambda_{b}) \simeq \tau(\Xi_{b}^{0}) < \tau(\Xi_{b}^{-}) < \tau(\Omega_{b}) with lifetimes of \Xi_{b}^{-} and \Omega_{b} exceeding the lifetime of \Lambda_{b} by 22% and 35%, respectively.

The transverse mass spectra of light mesons produced in Au-Au collisions at 200 GeV/nucleon are analyzed in Tsallis statistics. In high energy collisions, it has been found that the spectra follow a generalized scaling law. We applied Tsallis statistics to the description of different particles using the scaling properties. The calculated results are in agreement with experimental data of PHENIX Collaboration. And, the temperature of emission sources is extracted consistently.

The BaBar and Belle collaborations have recently reported evidence for $D^0-\bar D^0$ mixing. This measurement provides the first significant constraint on FCNC in the up-quark sector for non-universal $Z^\prime$ models. Attributing the observed $D-\bar D$ mixing to new physics, we comment on the resulting rare $D$ and $t$ decays. We also show that a CP violating semileptonic asymmetry as large as $\sim 30%$ is allowed by the experimental results.

Two papers have been archived to which this letter is complementary: 1) Opthof and Leydesdorff arxiv:1002.2769 2) Van Raan et al. arxiv:1003.2113 Van Raan at all claims that the order of operations (first dividing then adding) does not apply to citation analysis. In my contribution I discuss a few analogues in Physics and Medicine and argue that in no other field of science where quantities have physical or financial meaning, implying that that numbers have a real unit of measure, it would be allowed to ignore the rule of operations. Hence, the claim of CWTS that the order of operations is not relevant brings studies ignoring this rule as done by CWTS in the category 'Pseudo Science'.

We present an approach to the dynamics of interacting particle systems, which allows to derive path integral formulas from purely stochastic considerations. We show that the resulting field theory is a dual version of the standard theory of Doi and Peliti. This clarify both the origin of the Cole-Hopf map between the two approaches and the occurence of imaginary noises in effective Langevin equations for reaction-diffusion systems. The advantage of our approach is that it focuses directly on the density field. We show some applications, in particular on the Zero Range Process, hydrodynamic limits and large deviation functional.

Propagation of information encoded in spin degrees of freedom through networks of coupled spins enables important applications in spintronics and quantum information processing. We study control of information propagation in networks of spin-$\tfrac{1}{2}$ particles with uniform nearest neighbour couplings forming a ring with a single excitation in the network as simple prototype of a router for spin-based information. Specifically optimising spatially distributed potentials, which remain constant during information transfer, simplifies the implementation of the routing scheme. However, the limited degrees of freedom makes finding a control that maximises the transfer probability in a short time difficult. We show that the structure of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors must fulfill a specific condition to be able to maximise the transfer fidelity, and demonstrate that a specific choice among the many potential structures that fulfill this condition significantly improves the solutions found by optimal control.

The combination of clinical and personal health and wellbeing data can tell us much about our behaviors, risks and overall status. The way this data is visualized may affect our understanding of our own health. To study this effect, we conducted a small experiment with 30 participants in which we presented a holistic overview of the health and wellbeing of two modeled individuals, one of them with metabolic syndrome. We used an insight-based methodology to assess the effectiveness of the visualizations. The results show that adequate visualization of holistic health data helps users without medical background to better understand the overall health situation and possible health risks related to lifestyles. Furthermore, we found that the application of insight-based methodology in the health and wellbeing domain remains unexplored and additional research and methodology development are needed.

Sensing on smartphones is known to be power-hungry. It has been shown that this problem can be solved by adding an ultra low-power processor to execute simple, frequent sensor data processing. While very effective in saving energy, this resulting heterogeneous, distributed architecture poses a significant challenge to application development. We present Reflex, a suite of runtime and compilation techniques to conceal the heterogeneous, distributed nature from developers. The Reflex automatically transforms the developer's code for distributed execution with the help of the Reflex runtime. To create a unified system illusion, Reflex features a novel software distributed shared memory (DSM) design that leverages the extreme architectural asymmetry between the low-power processor and the powerful central processor to achieve both energy efficiency and performance. We report a complete realization of Reflex for heterogeneous smartphones with Maemo/Linux as the central kernel. Using a tri-processor hardware prototype and sensing applications reported in recent literature, we evaluate the Reflex realization for programming transparency, energy efficiency, and performance. We show that Reflex supports a programming style that is very close to contemporary smartphone programming. It allows existing sensing applications to be ported with minor source code changes. Reflex reduces the system power in sensing by up to 83%, and its runtime system only consumes 10% local memory on a typical ultra-low power processor.

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has been continuously benefiting from the advancements in the field of data science. Various types of Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods have been utilized for the assessment and evaluation of civil structures. In AI, Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) algorithms require plenty of datasets to train; particularly, the more data DL models are trained with, the better output it yields. Yet, in SHM applications, collecting data from civil structures through sensors is expensive and obtaining useful data (damage associated data) is challenging. In this paper, 1-D Wasserstein loss Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks using Gradient Penalty (1-D WDCGAN-GP) is utilized to generate damage associated vibration datasets that are similar to the input. For the purpose of vibration-based damage diagnostics, a 1-D Deep Convolutional Neural Network (1-D DCNN) is built, trained, and tested on both real and generated datasets. The classification results from the 1-D DCNN on both datasets resulted to be very similar to each other. The presented work in this paper shows that for the cases of insufficient data in DL or ML-based damage diagnostics, 1-D WDCGAN-GP can successfully generate data for the model to be trained on.

The most general solution to the form factor problem in the sinh-Gordon model is presented in an explicit way. The linearly independent classes of solutions correspond to powers of the elementary field. We show how the form factors of exponential operators can be obtained from the general solution by adjusting free parameters. The general formula obtained in the sinh-Gordon case reproduces the form factors of the scaling Lee-Yang model in a certain limit of the coupling constant.

Model checking of linear-time properties based on possibility measures was studied in previous work (Y. Li and L. Li, Model checking of linear-time properties based on possibility measure, IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 21(5)(2013), 842-854). However, the linear-time properties considered in the previous work was classical and qualitative, possibility information of the systems was not considered at all. We shall study quantitative model checking of fuzzy linear-time properties based on generalized possibility measures in the paper. Both the model of the system, as well as the properties the system needs to adhere to, are described using possibility information to identify the uncertainty in the model/properties. The systems are modeled by {\sl generalized possibilistic Kripke structures} (GPKS, in short), and the properties are described by fuzzy linear-time properties. Concretely, fuzzy linear-time properties about reachability, always reachability, constrain reachability, repeated reachability and persitence in GPKSs are introduced and studied. Fuzzy regular safety properties and fuzzy $\omega-$regular properties in GPKSs are introduced, the verification of fuzzy regular safety properties and fuzzy $\omega-$regular properties using fuzzy finite automata are thoroughly studied. It has been shown that the verification of fuzzy regular safety properties and fuzzy $\omega-$regular properties in a finite GPKS can be transformed into the verification of (always) reachability properties and repeated reachability (persistence) properties in the product GPKS introduced in this paper. Several examples are given to illustrate the methods presented in the paper.

We explore the effect of magnetorotational turbulence on the dynamics and concentrations of boulders in local box simulations of a sub-Keplerian protoplanetary disc. The solids are treated as particles each with an independent space coordinate and velocity. We find that the turbulence has two effects on the solids. 1) Meter and decameter bodies are strongly concentrated, locally up to a factor 100 times the average dust density, whereas decimeter bodies only experience a moderate density increase. The concentrations are located in large scale radial gas density enhancements that arise from a combination of turbulence and shear. 2) For meter-sized boulders, the concentrations cause the average radial drift speed to be reduced by 40%. We find that the densest clumps of solids are gravitationally unstable under physically reasonable values for the gas column density and for the dust-to-gas ratio due to sedimentation. We speculate that planetesimals can form in a dust layer that is not in itself dense enough to undergo gravitational fragmentation, and that fragmentation happens in turbulent density fluctuations in this sublayer.

We provide a definition of Tanaka-Thomas's Vafa-Witten invariants for \'etale gerbes over smooth projective surfaces using the moduli spaces of $\mu_r$-gerbe twisted sheaves and Higgs sheaves. Twisted sheaves and their moduli are naturally used to study the period-index theorem for the corresponding $\mu_r$-gerbe in the Brauer group of the surfaces. Deformation and obstruction theory of the twisted sheaves and Higgs sheaves behave like general sheaves and Higgs sheaves. We define virtual fundamental classes on the moduli spaces and define the twisted Vafa-Witten invariants using virtual localization and the Behrend function on the moduli spaces. As applications for the Langlands dual group $\SU(r)/\zz_r$ of $\SU(r)$, we define the $\SU(r)/\zz_r$-Vafa-Witten invariants using the twisted invariants for \'etale gerbes, and prove the S-duality conjecture of Vafa-Witten for the projective plane in rank two and for K3 surfaces in prime ranks. We also conjecture for other surfaces.

Recently, the Network Representation Learning (NRL) techniques, which represent graph structure via low-dimension vectors to support social-oriented application, have attracted wide attention. Though large efforts have been made, they may fail to describe the multiple aspects of similarity between social users, as only a single vector for one unique aspect has been represented for each node. To that end, in this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end framework named MCNE to learn multiple conditional network representations, so that various preferences for multiple behaviors could be fully captured. Specifically, we first design a binary mask layer to divide the single vector as conditional embeddings for multiple behaviors. Then, we introduce the attention network to model interaction relationship among multiple preferences, and further utilize the adapted message sending and receiving operation of graph neural network, so that multi-aspect preference information from high-order neighbors will be captured. Finally, we utilize Bayesian Personalized Ranking loss function to learn the preference similarity on each behavior, and jointly learn multiple conditional node embeddings via multi-task learning framework. Extensive experiments on public datasets validate that our MCNE framework could significantly outperform several state-of-the-art baselines, and further support the visualization and transfer learning tasks with excellent interpretability and robustness.

The Multiplicative Persistence Conjecture Is True for Odd Targets

In 1973, Neil Sloane published a very short paper introducing an intriguing problem: Pick a decimal integer $n$ and multiply all its digits by each other. Repeat the process until a single digit $\Delta(n)$ is obtained. $\Delta(n)$ is called the \textsl{multiplicative digital root of $n$} or \textsl{the target of $n$}. The number of steps $\Xi(n)$ needed to reach $\Delta(n)$, called the multiplicative persistence of $n$ or \textsl{the height of $n$} is conjectured to always be at most $11$. Like many other very simple to state number-theoretic conjectures, the multiplicative persistence mystery resisted numerous explanation attempts. This paper proves that the conjecture holds for all odd target values: Namely that if $\Delta(n)\in\{1,3,7,9\}$, then $\Xi(n) \leq 1$ and that if $\Delta(n)=5$, then $\Xi(n) \leq 5$. Naturally, we overview the difficulties currently preventing us from extending the approach to (nonzero) even targets.

Left-right symmetric gauge theory presents a minimal paradigm to accommodate massive neutrinos with all known conserved symmetries duly gauged. The work presented here is based on the argument that the see-saw mechanism does not force the new right handed symmetry scale to be very high, and as such some of the species from the spectrum of the new gauge and Higgs bosons can have masses within a few orders of magnitude of the TeV scale. The scale of the left-right parity breaking in turn can be sequestered from the Planck scale by supersymmetry. We have studied several formulations of such Just Beyond Standard Model (JBSM) theories for their consistency with cosmology. Specifically the need to eliminate phenomenologically undesirable domain walls gives many useful clues. The possibility that the exact left-right symmetry breaks in conjunction with supersymmetry has been explored in the context of gauge mediation, placing restrictions on the available parameter space. Finally we have also studied a left-right symmetric model in the context of metastable supersymmetric vacua and obtained constraints on the mass scale of Right handed symmetry. In all the cases studied, The mass scale of right handed neutrino $M_R$ remains bounded from above, and in some of the cases the scale $10^9$ GeV favourable for supersymmetric thermal leptogenesis is disallowed. On the other hand PeV scale remains a viable option, and the results warrant a more detailed study of such models for their observability in collider and astroparticle experiments.

Nowadays, modern Earth Observation systems continuously generate huge amounts of data. A notable example is represented by the Sentinel-2 mission, which provides images at high spatial resolution (up to 10m) with high temporal revisit period (every 5 days), which can be organized in Satellite Image Time Series (SITS). While the use of SITS has been proved to be beneficial in the context of Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) map generation, unfortunately, machine learning approaches commonly leveraged in remote sensing field fail to take advantage of spatio-temporal dependencies present in such data. Recently, new generation deep learning methods allowed to significantly advance research in this field. These approaches have generally focused on a single type of neural network, i.e., Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) or Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), which model different but complementary information: spatial autocorrelation (CNNs) and temporal dependencies (RNNs). In this work, we propose the first deep learning architecture for the analysis of SITS data, namely \method{} (DUal view Point deep Learning architecture for time series classificatiOn), that combines Convolutional and Recurrent neural networks to exploit their complementarity. Our hypothesis is that, since CNNs and RNNs capture different aspects of the data, a combination of both models would produce a more diverse and complete representation of the information for the underlying land cover classification task. Experiments carried out on two study sites characterized by different land cover characteristics (i.e., the \textit{Gard} site in France and the \textit{Reunion Island} in the Indian Ocean), demonstrate the significance of our proposal.

Photometric Covariance in Multi-Band Surveys: Understanding the Photometric Error in the SDSS

In this paper we describe a detailed analysis of the photometric uncertainties present within the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging survey based on repeat observations of approximately 200 square degrees of the sky. We show that, for the standard SDSS aperture systems (petrocounts, counts_model, psfcounts and cmodel_counts), the errors generated by the SDSS photometric pipeline under-estimate the observed scatter in the individual bands. The degree of disagreement is a strong function of aperture and magnitude (ranging from 20% to more than a factor of 2). We also find that the photometry in the five optical bands can be highly correlated for both point sources and galaxies, although the correlation for point sources is almost entirely due to variable objects. Without correcting for this covariance the SDSS color errors could be in over-estimated by a factor of two to three. Combining these opposing effects, the SDSS errors on the colors differ from the observed color variation by approximately 10-20% for most apertures and magnitudes. We provide a prescription to correct the errors derived from the SDSS photometric pipeline as a function of magnitude and a semi-analytic method for generating the appropriate covariance between the different photometric passbands. Given the intrinsic nature of these correlations, we expect that all current and future multi-band surveys will also observe strongly covariant magnitudes. The ability of these surveys to complete their science goals is largely dependent on color-based target selection and photometric redshifts; these results show the importance of spending a significant fraction of early survey operations on re-imaging to empirically determine the photometric covariance of any observing/reduction pipeline.

Cosmic rays are able to heat interstellar dust grains. This may enhance molecule mobility in icy mantles that have accumulated on the grains in dark cloud cores. A three-phase astrochemical model was used to investigate the molecule mobility in interstellar ices. Specifically, diffusion through pores in ice between the subsurface mantle and outer surface, assisted by whole-grain heating, was considered. It was found that the pores can serve as an efficient transport route for light species. The diffusion of chemical radicals from the mantle to the outer surface are most effective. These species accumulate in the mantle because of photodissociation by the cosmic-ray induced photons. The faster diffusion of hydrogen within the warm ice enhances the hydrogenation of radicals on pore surfaces. The overall result of the whole grain heating-induced radial diffusion in ice are higher abundances of the ice species whose synthesis involve light radicals. Examples of stable species synthesized this way include the complex organic molecules, OCS, H2O2 and cyanoplyynes.

In this paper, we consider static parameter estimation for a class of continuous-time state-space models. Our goal is to obtain an unbiased estimate of the gradient of the log-likelihood (score function), which is an estimate that is unbiased even if the stochastic processes involved in the model must be discretized in time. To achieve this goal, we apply a doubly randomized scheme, that involves a novel coupled conditional particle filter (CCPF) on the second level of randomization. Our novel estimate helps facilitate the application of gradient-based estimation algorithms, such as stochastic-gradient Langevin descent. We illustrate our methodology in the context of stochastic gradient descent (SGD) in several numerical examples and compare with the Rhee & Glynn estimator.

The main motivation to investigate hard probes in heavy ion collisions is to do tomography, i.e. to infer medium properties from the in-medium modification of hard processes. Yet while the suppression of high P_T hadrons has been measured for some time, solid tomographic information is slow to emerge. This can be traced back to theoretical uncertainties and ambiguities in modelling both medium evolution and parton-medium interaction. Ways to overcome these difficulties are to constrain models better and to focus on more differential observables. Correlations of high P_T hadrons offer non-trivial information beyond what can be deduced from single hadron suppression. They reflect not only the hard reaction being modified by the medium, but also the back reaction of the medium to the hard probe. Models for hard back-to-back correlations are now very well constrained by a wealth of data and allow insights into the nature of the parton-medium interaction as well as first true tomographic results. Models of full in-medium jet evolution are being actively developed, but have yet to make substantial contact with data. Progress is slower in the understanding of low P_T correlations, the ridge and the cone, although a qualitative understanding of the nature of the physics behind these correlations starts to emerge.

The transverse spatial effects observed in photon pairs produced by parametric down-conversion provide a robust and fertile testing ground for studies of quantum mechanics, non-classical states of light, correlated imaging and quantum information. Over the last 20 years there has been much progress in this area, ranging from technical advances and applications such as quantum imaging to investigations of fundamental aspects of quantum physics such as complementarity relations, Bell's inequality violation and entanglement. The field has grown immensely: a quick search shows that there are hundreds of papers published in this field. The objective of this article is to review the building blocks and major theoretical and experimental advances in the field, along with some possible technical applications and connections to other research areas.

In experiments with superconducting quantum circuits, characterizing the photon statistics of propagating microwave fields is a fundamental task. We quantify the $n^{2}\,{+}\,n$ photon number variance of thermal microwave photons emitted from a black-body radiator for mean photon numbers $0.05\,{\lesssim}\,n\,{\lesssim}\,1.5$. We probe the fields using either correlation measurements or a transmon qubit coupled to a microwave resonator. Our experiments provide a precise quantitative characterization of weak microwave states and information on the noise emitted by a Josephson parametric amplifier.

The stability of a low temperature Bose-Einstein condensate with attractive interactions in one and three dimensional double-well potentials is discussed. In particular, the tunnelling dynamics of a condensate under the influence of a time-dependent potential gradient is investigated. The condensate is shown to collapse at a critical potential gradient which corresponds to a critical number of atoms in one of the two wells. The sensitivity of this tunnelling induced collapse could provide a useful tool in the study of condensates with attractive interactions.

Pulse coding is an effective method to overcome the trade-off between signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and spatial resolution in optical-fiber sensing systems based on optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR). However, the coding gain has not been yet fully exploited. We provide a comprehensive theoretical analysis and experimental validation of the sampling criteria for correlation-coded OTDR, showing that the coding gain can be further improved by harnessing the oversampling. Moreover, the bandwidth-limited feature of the photodetector can also be utilized to select the sampling rate so that additional SNR enhancement is obtained. We believe this principle could be applied to any practical OTDR-based optical-fiber sensing technology, and serve to update existing systems based on correlation-coded OTDR in a straightforward manner at a relatively low cost.

While artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms continue to rival human performance on a variety of clinical tasks, the question of how best to incorporate these algorithms into clinical workflows remains relatively unexplored. We investigated how AI can affect pathologist performance on the task of differentiating between two subtypes of primary liver cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CC). We developed an AI diagnostic assistant using a deep learning model and evaluated its effect on the diagnostic performance of eleven pathologists with varying levels of expertise. Our deep learning model achieved an accuracy of 0.885 on an internal validation set of 26 slides and an accuracy of 0.842 on an independent test set of 80 slides. Despite having high accuracy on a hold out test set, the diagnostic assistant did not significantly improve performance across pathologists (p-value: 0.184, OR: 1.287 (95% CI 0.886, 1.871)). Model correctness was observed to significantly bias the pathologist decisions. When the model was correct, assistance significantly improved accuracy across all pathologist experience levels and for all case difficulty levels (p-value: < 0.001, OR: 4.289 (95% CI 2.360, 7.794)). When the model was incorrect, assistance significantly decreased accuracy across all 11 pathologists and for all case difficulty levels (p-value < 0.001, OR: 0.253 (95% CI 0.126, 0.507)). Our results highlight the challenges of translating AI models to the clinical setting, especially for difficult subspecialty tasks such as tumor classification. In particular, they suggest that incorrect model predictions could strongly bias an expert's diagnosis, an important factor to consider when designing medical AI-assistance systems.

Flux qubits, small superconducting loops interrupted by Josephson junctions, are successful realizations of quantum coherence for macroscopic variables. Superconductivity in these loops is carried by $\sim 10^6$ -- $10^{10}$ electrons, which has been interpreted as suggesting that coherent superpositions of such current states are macroscopic superpositions analogous to Schr\"odinger's cat. We provide a full microscopic analysis of such qubits, from which the macroscopic quantum description can be derived. This reveals that the number of microscopic constituents participating in superposition states for experimentally accessible flux qubits is surprisingly but not trivially small. The combination of this relatively small size with large differences between macroscopic observables in the two branches is seen to result from the Fermi statistics of the electrons and the large disparity between the values of superfluid and Fermi velocity in these systems.

We obtain charged spherically symmetric black holes in the two-component scalar Einstein-Maxwell-Friedberg-Lee-Sirlin model with a symmetry breaking potential. These asymptotically flat black holes carry resonant scalar Q-hair. As expected, these hairy black holes give rise to non-uniqueness. When comparing these solutions with the corresponding charged boson stars and Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes, we find a different pattern in the case of a massive real scalar component and a massless one. We demonstrate that, as the real component becomes massless, the resonant hairy black holes bifurcate from Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes for sufficiently small gravitational coupling.

This paper presents a detailed study on analytical solutions to a general nonlinear boundary-value problem in finite deformation theory. Based on canonical duality theory and the associated pure complementary energy principle in nonlinear elasticity proposed by Gao in 1999, we show that the general nonlinear partial differential equation for deformation is actually equivalent to an algebraic (tensor) equation in stress space. For St Venant-Kirchhoff materials, this coupled cubic algebraic equation can be solved principally to obtain all possible solutions. Our results show that for any given external source field such that the statically admissible first Piola-Kirchhoff stress field has no-zero eigenvalues, the problem has a unique global minimal solution, which is corresponding to a positive-definite second Piola-Kirchhoff stress S, and at most eight local solutions corresponding to negative-definite S. Additionally, the problem could have 15 unstable solutions corresponding to indefinite S. This paper demonstrates that the canonical duality theory and the pure complementary energy principle play fundamental roles in nonconvex analysis and finite deformation theory.

In this work, we describe a Bayesian framework for reconstructing the boundaries of piecewise smooth regions in the X-ray computed tomography (CT) problem in an infinite-dimensional setting. In addition to the reconstruction, we are also able to quantify the uncertainty of the predicted boundaries. Our approach is goal oriented, meaning that we directly detect the discontinuities from the data, instead of reconstructing the entire image. This drastically reduces the dimension of the problem, which makes the application of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods feasible. We show that our method provides an excellent platform for challenging X-ray CT scenarios (e.g., in case of noisy data, limited angle, or sparse angle imaging). We investigate the performance and accuracy of our method on synthetic data as well as on real-world data. The numerical results indicate that our method provides an accurate method in detecting boundaries of piecewise smooth regions and quantifies the uncertainty in the prediction.

We discuss how the co-existence of hyperons, antikaon condensate and color superconducting quark matter in neutron star interior influences the gross properties of compact stars such as, the equation of state and mass-radius relationship. We compare our results with the recent observations. We also discuss about superdense stars in the third family branch which may contain a pure color-flavor-locked (CFL) core.

In this paper we consider the problem of single monocular image depth estimation. It is a challenging problem due to its ill-posedness nature and has found wide application in industry. Previous efforts belongs roughly to two families: learning-based method and interactive method. Learning-based method, in which deep convolutional neural network (CNN) is widely used, can achieve good result. But they suffer low generalization ability and typically perform poorly for unfamiliar scenes. Besides, data-hungry nature for such method makes data aquisition expensive and time-consuming. Interactive method requires human annotation of depth which, however, is errorneous and of large variance. To overcome these problems, we propose a new perspective for single monocular image depth estimation problem: size to depth. Our method require sparse label for real-world size of object rather than raw depth. A Coarse depth map is then inferred following geometric relationships according to size labels. Then we refine the depth map by doing energy function optimization on conditional random field(CRF). We experimentally demonstrate that our method outperforms traditional depth-labeling methods and can produce satisfactory depth maps.

Vision-based deep learning (DL) methods have made great progress in learning autonomous driving models from large-scale crowd-sourced video datasets. They are trained to predict instantaneous driving behaviors from video data captured by on-vehicle cameras. In this paper, we develop a geo-context aware visualization system for the study of Autonomous Driving Model (ADM) predictions together with large-scale ADM video data. The visual study is seamlessly integrated with the geographical environment by combining DL model performance with geospatial visualization techniques. Model performance measures can be studied together with a set of geospatial attributes over map views. Users can also discover and compare prediction behaviors of multiple DL models in both city-wide and street-level analysis, together with road images and video contents. Therefore, the system provides a new visual exploration platform for DL model designers in autonomous driving. Use cases and domain expert evaluation show the utility and effectiveness of the visualization system.

Polycrystalline Ba4NbIr3O12 has recently been shown to be a promising spin liquid candidate. We report an easy and reliable method to grow millimeter-sized single crystals of this trimer based spin liquid candidate material with the actual stoichiometry of Ba4Nb0.8Ir3.2O12. The growth of large crystals is achieved using BaCl2 as flux. The crystals show hexagonal plate-like habit with edges up to 3 mm in length. The structure is confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and is found to be the same as of previously reported phase Ba12Nb2.4Ir9.6O36 [Ba4Nb0.8Ir3.2O12], indeed with a mixed occupancy of Nb/Ir at 3a site. The magnetic and calorimetric study on the individual single crystals confirms the possibility of a spin liquid state consistent with a recent report on a polycrystalline sample

To answer the very interesting questions raised by the discovery of neutrino mass, an effective, coherent strategy is needed. To foster the development of such a strategy, the American Physical Society's Divisions of Nuclear Physics and of Particles and Fields, together with the Divisions of Astrophysics and the Physics of Beams, have sponsored this yearlong Study on the Physics of Neutrinos. The study has endeavored to identify the most important open questions, to evaluate the physics reach of various proposed ways of answering them, and to determine an effective, fruitful U.S. role within a global experimental program. An important -- if challenging -- goal of the study has been to achieve consensus regarding the future of neutrino physics.

Riemannian Flow Matching on General Geometries

We propose Riemannian Flow Matching (RFM), a simple yet powerful framework for training continuous normalizing flows on manifolds. Existing methods for generative modeling on manifolds either require expensive simulation, are inherently unable to scale to high dimensions, or use approximations for limiting quantities that result in biased training objectives. Riemannian Flow Matching bypasses these limitations and offers several advantages over previous approaches: it is simulation-free on simple geometries, does not require divergence computation, and computes its target vector field in closed-form. The key ingredient behind RFM is the construction of a relatively simple premetric for defining target vector fields, which encompasses the existing Euclidean case. To extend to general geometries, we rely on the use of spectral decompositions to efficiently compute premetrics on the fly. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on real-world non-Euclidean datasets, and we demonstrate tractable training on general geometries, including triangular meshes with highly non-trivial curvature and boundaries.

We show that for supersymmetric AdS vacua on Type IIA orientifolds with flux compactifications, the RR tadpole cancellation conditions can be completely relaxed, and then the four-dimensional N=1 supersymmetry conditions are the main constraints on consistent intersecting D6-brane model building. We construct two kinds of three-family Pati-Salam models. In the first kind of models, the suitable three-family SM fermion masses and mixings can be generated at the stringy tree level, and then the rank one problem for the SM fermion Yukawa matrices can be solved. In the second kind of models, only the third family of the SM fermions can obtain masses at tree level. In these models, the complex structure parameters can be determined by supersymmetric D6-brane configurations, and all the moduli may be stabilized. The initial gauge symmetries U(4)_C \times U(2)_L \times U(2)_R and U(4)_C \times USp(2)_L \times U(2)_R can be broken down to the SU(3)_C \times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_{B-L} \times U(1)_{I_{3R}} due to the Green-Schwarz mechanism and D6-brane splittings, and further down to the SM gauge symmetry around the string scale via the supersymmetry preserving Higgs mechanism. Comparing to the previous model building, we have less bidoublet Higgs fields. However, there generically exist some exotic particles.

Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) leverage neural-networks to find the solutions of partial differential equation (PDE)-constrained optimization problems with initial conditions and boundary conditions as soft constraints. These soft constraints are often considered to be the sources of the complexity in the training phase of PINNs. Here, we demonstrate that the challenge of training (i) persists even when the boundary conditions are strictly enforced, and (ii) is closely related to the Kolmogorov n-width associated with problems demonstrating transport, convection, traveling waves, or moving fronts. Given this realization, we describe the mechanism underlying the training schemes such as those used in eXtended PINNs (XPINN), curriculum regularization, and sequence-to-sequence learning. For an important category of PDEs, i.e., governed by non-linear convection-diffusion equation, we propose reformulating PINNs on a Lagrangian frame of reference, i.e., LPINNs, as a PDE-informed solution. A parallel architecture with two branches is proposed. One branch solves for the state variables on the characteristics, and the second branch solves for the low-dimensional characteristics curves. The proposed architecture conforms to the causality innate to the convection, and leverages the direction of travel of the information in the domain. Finally, we demonstrate that the loss landscapes of LPINNs are less sensitive to the so-called "complexity" of the problems, compared to those in the traditional PINNs in the Eulerian framework.

In a uniform ring-shaped one-dimensional superfluid, quantum fluctuations that unwind the order parameter need to transfer momentum to quasiparticles (phonons). We present a detailed calculation of the leading exponential factor governing the rate of such phonon-assisted tunneling in a weakly-coupled Bose gas at a low temperature $T$. We also estimate the preexponent. We find that for small superfluid velocities the $T$-dependence of the rate is given mainly by $\exp(-c_s P/ 2T)$, where $P$ is the momentum transfer, and $c_s$ is the phonon speed. At low $T$, this represents a strong suppression of the rate, compared to the non-uniform case. As a part of our calculation, we identify a complex instanton, whose analytical continuation to suitable real-time segments is real and describes formation and decay of coherent quasiparticle states with nonzero total momenta.

Understanding and manipulation of the laser processing quality during the ablation of solids have crucial importance from fundamental and industrial perspectives. Here we have studied the effect of external magnetic field on the micro-material processing of silicon by ultrashort laser pulses. It was found experimentally that such a field directed along the laser beam improves the quality and efficiency of the material removal. Additionally, we observe that the formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) in a multi-pulse regime is affected by the external magnetic field. Our results open a route towards efficient and controllable ultrafast laser micromachining.

Most popular strategies to capture subjective judgments from humans involve the construction of a unidimensional relative measurement scale, representing order preferences or judgments about a set of objects or conditions. This information is generally captured by means of direct scoring, either in the form of a Likert or cardinal scale, or by comparative judgments in pairs or sets. In this sense, the use of pairwise comparisons is becoming increasingly popular because of the simplicity of this experimental procedure. However, this strategy requires non-trivial data analysis to aggregate the comparison ranks into a quality scale and analyse the results, in order to take full advantage of the collected data. This paper explains the process of translating pairwise comparison data into a measurement scale, discusses the benefits and limitations of such scaling methods and introduces a publicly available software in Matlab. We improve on existing scaling methods by introducing outlier analysis, providing methods for computing confidence intervals and statistical testing and introducing a prior, which reduces estimation error when the number of observers is low. Most of our examples focus on image quality assessment.

We explicitly give the function $f(\frac{n}{g})$ in the conjecture. The moderate behaviour of the frequencies with respect to the growth rate of the number of cusps compared to that of the genus drastically contrasts with the behaviour of other geometric quantities and exhibits the topological nature of the frequencies.

Sperm cooperation has evolved in a variety of taxa and is often considered a response to sperm competition, yet the benefit of this form of collective movement remains unclear. Here we use fine-scale imaging and a minimal mathematical model to study sperm aggregation in the rodent genus $Peromyscus$. We demonstrate that as the number of sperm cells in an aggregate increase, the group moves with more persistent linearity but without increasing speed; this benefit, however, is offset in larger aggregates as the geometry of the group forces sperm to swim against one another. The result is a non-monotonic relationship between aggregate size and average velocity with both a theoretically predicted and empirically observed optimum of 6-7 sperm/aggregate. To understand the role of sexual selection in driving these sperm group dynamics, we compared two sister-species with divergent mating systems and find that sperm of $P.\,maniculatus$ (highly promiscuous), which have evolved under intense competition, form optimal-sized aggregates more often than sperm of $P.\,polionotus$ (strictly monogamous), which lack competition. Our combined mathematical and experimental study of coordinated sperm movement reveals the importance of geometry, motion and group size on sperm velocity and suggests how these physical variables interact with evolutionary selective pressures to regulate cooperation in competitive environments.

We suggest that low-mass hydrogen-burning stars like the Sun should sometimes form with massive extended discs; and we show, by means of radiation hydrodynamic simulations, that the outer parts of such discs (R>100 AU) are likely to fragment on a dynamical timescale (10^3 to $10^4 yr), forming low-mass companions: principally brown dwarfs (BDs), but also very low-mass hydrogen-burning stars and planetary-mass objects. A few of the BDs formed in this way remain attached to the primary star, orbiting at large radii. The majority are released into the field, by interactions amongst themselves; in so doing they acquire only a low velocity dispersion (<2 km/s), and therefore they usually retain small discs, capable of registering an infrared excess and sustaining accretion. Some BDs form close BD/BD binaries, and these binaries can survive ejection into the field. This BD formation mechanism appears to avoid some of the problems associated with the `embryo ejection' scenario, and to answer some of the questions not yet answered by the `turbulent fragmentation' scenario.

A new type of symmetry, ren-symmetry describing anyon physics and the corresponding topological physics, is proposed. Ren-symmetry is a generalization of super-symmetry which is widely applied in super-symmetric physics such as the super-symmetric quantum mechanics, super-symmetric gravity, super-symmetric string theory, super-symmetric integrable systems and so on. The super-symmetry and Grassmann-number are, in some sense, the dual conceptions, which turns out that these conceptions coincide for the ren situation, that is, a similar conception of ren-number is devised to ren-symmetry. In particular, some basic results of the ren-number and ren-symmetry are exposed which allow one to derive, in principle, some new types of integrable systems including ren-integrable models and ren-symmetric integrable systems. Training examples of ren-integrable KdV type systems and ren-symmetric KdV equations are explicitly given.

One of the challenges for the robotics community is to deploy robots which can reliably operate in real world scenarios together with humans. A crucial requirement for legged robots is the capability to properly balance on their feet, rejecting external disturbances. iCub is a state-of-the-art humanoid robot which has only recently started to balance on its feet. While the current balancing controller has proved successful in various scenarios, it still misses the capability to properly react to strong pushes by taking steps. This paper goes in this direction. It proposes and implements a control strategy based on the Capture Point concept [1]. Instead of relying on position control, like most of Capture Point related approaches, the proposed strategy generates references for the momentum-based torque controller already implemented on the iCub, thus extending its capabilities to react to external disturbances, while retaining the advantages of torque control when interacting with the environment. Experiments in the Gazebo simulator and on the iCub humanoid robot validate the proposed strategy.

Vectorial partners of the Standard Model quarks and leptons are predicted in many dynamical models of electroweak symmetry breaking. The most easily accessible of these new particles, either due to mass or couplings, are typically expected to be the partners of the third-generation fermions. It is therefore essential to explore the signatures of these particles at future high-energy colliders. We study the potential of a high-energy muon collider to singly produce a vector-like top-quark partner via an electroweak dipole moment operator, such an operator being typical of composite constructions beyond the Standard Model. We use a phenomenological model for third-generation quarks and their partners that satisfies an extended custodial symmetry. This automatically protects the $W$-boson and $Z$-boson masses from receiving large electroweak corrections, and it allows the model to be viable given current electroweak data. We demonstrate that cross sections associated with dipole-induced vector-like quark production can easily exceed those inherent to more conventional single-production modes via ordinary electroweak couplings. We then explore the associated phenomenology, and we show that at least one (and often more than one) of the extra vector-like states can be studied at high-energy muon colliders. Typical accessible masses are found to range up to close to the kinematic production threshold, when the vector-like partners are produced in combination with an ordinary top quark.

In this article, we present a discrete time modeling framework, in which the shape and dynamics of a Limit Order Book (LOB) arise endogenously from an equilibrium between multiple market participants (agents). We use the proposed modeling framework to analyze the effects of trading frequency on market liquidity in a very general setting. In particular, we demonstrate the dual effect of high trading frequency. On the one hand, the higher frequency increases market efficiency, if the agents choose to provide liquidity in equilibrium. On the other hand, it also makes markets more fragile, in the sense that the agents choose to provide liquidity in equilibrium only if they are market-neutral (i.e., their beliefs satisfy certain martingale property). Even a very small deviation from market-neutrality may cause the agents to stop providing liquidity, if the trading frequency is sufficiently high, which represents an endogenous liquidity crisis (aka flash crash) in the market. This framework enables us to provide more insight into how such a liquidity crisis unfolds, connecting it to the so-called adverse selection effect.

The interest of quadratic algebras for position-dependent mass Schr\"odinger equations is highlighted by constructing spectrum generating algebras for a class of d-dimensional radial harmonic oscillators with $d \ge 2$ and a specific mass choice depending on some positive parameter $\alpha$. Via some minor changes, the one-dimensional oscillator on the line with the same kind of mass is included in this class. The existence of a single unitary irreducible representation belonging to the positive-discrete series type for $d \ge 2$ and of two of them for d=1 is proved. The transition to the constant-mass limit $\alpha \to 0$ is studied and deformed su(1,1) generators are constructed. These operators are finally used to generate all the bound-state wavefunctions by an algebraic procedure.

A new dynamical paradigm merging quantum dynamics with cosmology is discussed. Time evolution involves a genuine passage of time, which distinguishes the formalism from those where dynamics in space is equivalent to statics in space-time. Hyperbolic spatial sections occur as asymptotic large-cosmic-time supports of quantum wave functions. For simplicity, the wave functions are defined on $n$-dimensional Minkowski spaces. We begin with empty universe, but then outline the formalism that involves matter fields. As a by-product, we arrive at a new formulation of conformal invariance of $m\neq 0$ fields.

We pursue the study of the Curie-Weiss model of self-organized criticality we designed in arXiv:1301.6911. We extend our results to more general interaction functions and we prove that, for a class of symmetric distributions satisfying a Cram\'er condition $(C)$ and some integrability hypothesis, the sum $S_{n}$ of the random variables behaves as in the typical critical generalized Ising Curie-Weiss model. The fluctuations are of order $n^{3/4}$ and the limiting law is $k \exp(-\lambda x^{4})\,dx$ where $k$ and $\lambda$ are suitable positive constants. In arXiv:1301.6911 we obtained these results only for distributions having an even density.

We analyze the sources of free electrons that produce the large dispersion measures, DM $\approx 300-1600$ (in units cm$^{-3}$ pc), observed toward fast radio bursts (FRBs). Individual galaxies typically produce DM $\sim 25-60$ cm$^{-3}$ pc from ionized gas in their disk, disk-halo interface, and circumgalactic medium. Toward an FRB source at redshift $z$, a homogeneous IGM containing a fraction $f_{\rm IGM}$ of cosmological baryons will produce DM $= (935~{\rm cm}^{-3}~{\rm pc}) f_{\rm IGM} \, h_{70}^{-1} I(z)$, where $I(z) = (2/3 \Omega_m)[ \{ \Omega_m(1+z)^3 + \Omega_{\Lambda} \}^{1/2} - 1 ]$. A structured IGM of photoionized Ly-alpha absorbers in the cosmic web produces similar dispersion, modeled from the observed distribution, $f_b(N,z)$, of H I (Lya-forest) absorbers in column density and redshift with ionization corrections and scaling relations from cosmological simulations. An analytic formula for DM($z$) applied to observed FRB dispersions suggests that $z_{\rm FRB} \approx 0.2-1.5$ for an IGM containing a significant baryon fraction, $f_{\rm IGM} = 0.6\pm0.1$. Future surveys of the statistical distribution, DM($z)$, of FRBs identified with specific galaxies and redshifts, can be used to calibrate the IGM baryon fraction and distribution of Ly-alpha absorbers. Fluctuations in DM at the level $\pm10$ cm$^{-3}$ pc will arise from filaments and voids in the cosmic web.

Excitations of chiral rotation observed in triaxial nuclei and magnetic and/or antimagnetic rotations seen in near-spherical nuclei have attracted a lot of attention. Unlike conventional rotation in well-deformed or superdeformed nuclei, here the rotational axis is not necessary coinciding with any principal axis of the nuclear density distribution. Thus, tilted axis cranking is mandatory to describe these excitations self-consistently in the framework of covariant density functional theory (CDFT). We will briefly introduce the formalism of tilted axis cranking CDFT and its application for magnetic and antimagnetic rotation phenomena. Configuration-fixed CDFT and its predictions for nuclear chiral configurations and for favorable triaxial deformation parameters are also presented, and the discoveries of the multiple chiral doublets (M\c{hi}D) in 133Ce and 103Rh are discussed.

We consider nonequilibrium systems with complex dynamics in stationary states with large fluctuations of intensive quantities (e.g. the temperature, chemical potential, or energy dissipation) on long time scales. Depending on the statistical properties of the fluctuations, we obtain different effective statistical mechanics descriptions. Tsallis statistics is one, but other classes of generalized statistics are obtained as well. We show that for small variance of the fluctuations all these different statistics behave in a universal way.

Gravitational field around blackhole induces photonic spin-orbit interaction that twists light

The spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of light has been intensively studied in nanophotonics because it enables sensitive control of photons' spin degree of freedom and thereby the trajectory of the photons, which is useful for applications such as signal encoding and routing. A recent study showed that the SOI of photons manifests in the presence of a gradient in the permittivity of the medium through which the photons propagate; this enhances the scattering of circularly polarized light and results in the photons propagating along twisted trajectories. Here we theoretically predict that, because of the equivalence between an inhomogeneous dielectric medium and a gravitational field demonstrated in transformation optics, a significant SOI is induced onto circularly polarized light passing by the gravitational lens of a black hole. This leads to: i) the photons to propagate along chiral trajectories if the size of the blackhole is smaller than the wavelength of the incident photons, ii) the resulting image of the gravitational lens to manifest an azimuthal rotation because of these chiral trajectories. The findings open for a way to probe for and discover subwavelength-size black holes using circularly polarized light.

This article considers a class of metastable non-reversible diffusion processes whose invariant measure is a Gibbs measure associated with a Morse potential. In a companion paper [32], we proved the Eyring-Kramers formula for the corresponding class of metastable diffusion processes. In this article, we further develop this result by proving that a suitably time-rescaled metastable diffusion process converges to a Markov chain on the deepest metastable valleys. This article is also an extension of [45], which considered the same problem for metastable reversible diffusion processes. Our proof is based on the recently developed resolvent approach to metastability.

We prove the equivalence between a relative bottleneck property and being quasi-isometric to a tree-graded space. As a consequence, we deduce that the quasi-trees of spaces defined axiomatically by Bestvina-Bromberg-Fujiwara are quasi-isometric to tree-graded spaces. Using this we prove that mapping class groups quasi-isometrically embed into a finite product of simplicial trees. In particular, these groups have finite Assouad-Nagata dimension, direct embeddings exhibiting $\ell^p$ compression exponent $1$ for all $p\geq 1$ and they quasi-isometrically embed into $\ell^1(\mathbb N)$. We deduce similar consequences for relatively hyperbolic groups whose parabolic subgroups satisfy such conditions. In obtaining these results we also demonstrate that curve complexes of compact surfaces and coned-off graphs of relatively hyperbolic groups admit quasi-isometric embeddings into finite products of trees.

Turbulent fluid dynamics typically involves excitations on many different length scales. Classical incompressible fluids can be cleanly represented in Fourier space enabling spectral analysis of energy cascades and other turbulence phenomena. In quantum fluids, additional phase information and singular behaviour near vortex cores thwarts the direct extension of standard spectral techniques. We develop a formal and numerical spectral analysis for $U(1)$ symmetry-breaking quantum fluids suitable for analyzing turbulent flows, with specific application to the Gross-Pitaevskii fluid. Our analysis builds naturally on the canonical approach to spectral analysis of velocity fields in compressible quantum fluids, and establishes a clear correspondence between energy spectral densities, power spectral densities, and autocorrelation functions, applicable to energy residing in velocity, quantum pressure, interaction, and potential energy of the fluid. Our formulation includes all quantum phase information and also enables arbitrary resolution spectral analysis, a valuable feature for numerical analysis. A central vortex in a trapped planar Bose-Einstein condensate provides an analytically tractable example with spectral features of interest in both the infrared and ultraviolet regimes. Sampled distributions modelling the dipole gas, plasma, and clustered regimes exhibit velocity correlation length increasing with vortex energy, consistent with known qualitative behaviour across the vortex clustering transition. The spectral analysis of compressible quantum fluids presented here offers a rigorous tool for analysing quantum features of superfluid turbulence in atomic or polariton condensates.

The presence of planetary material in white dwarf atmospheres, thought to be accreted from a dusty debris disc produced via the tidal disruption of a planetesimal, is common. Approximately five per cent of these discs host a co-orbital gaseous component detectable via emission from atomic transitions - usually the 8600 Angstrom CaII triplet. These emission profiles can be highly variable in both morphology and strength. Furthermore, the morphological variations in a few systems have been shown to be periodic, likely produced by an apsidally precessing asymmetric disc. Of the known gaseous debris discs, that around HE1349-2305 has the most rapidly evolving emission line morphology, and we present updated spectroscopy of the CaII triplet of this system. The additional observations show that the emission line morphologies vary periodically and consistently, and we constrain the period to two aliases of 459$\pm$3d and 502$\pm$3d. We produce images of the CaII triplet emission from the disc in velocity space using Doppler tomography - only the second such imaging of a white dwarf debris disc. We suggest that the asymmetric nature of these velocity images is generated by gas moving on eccentric orbits with radially-dependent excitation conditions via photo-ionisation from the white dwarf. We also obtained short-cadence (~ 4 min) spectroscopy to search for variability on the time-scale of the disc's orbital period (~ hours) due to the presence of a planetesimal, and rule out variability at a level of ~ 1.4 per cent.

The complex interactions between algorithmic trading agents can have a severe influence on the functioning of our economy, as witnessed by recent banking crises and trading anomalies. A common phenomenon in these situations are fire sales, a contagious process of asset sales that trigger further sales. We study the existence and structure of equilibria in a game-theoretic model of fire sales. We prove that for a wide parameter range (e.g., convex price impact functions), equilibria exist and form a complete lattice. This is contrasted with a non-existence result for concave price impact functions. Moreover, we study the convergence of best-response dynamics towards equilibria when they exist. In general, best-response dynamics may cycle. However, in many settings they are guaranteed to converge to the socially optimal equilibrium when starting from a natural initial state. Moreover, we discuss a simplified variant of the dynamics that is less informationally demanding and converges to the same equilibria. We compare the dynamics in terms of convergence speed.

The design of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and their docking stations has been a popular research topic for several decades. Although many AUV and dock designs have been proposed, materialized, and commercialized, most of these existing designs prioritize the functionality of the AUV over the dock, or vise versa; there has been limited formal research in analytical optimization for AUV docking systems. In this paper, a multidisciplinary optimization framework is presented with the aim to fill this theoretical gap. We propose a co-design optimization method that optimizes multiple design parameters governing the archetype of an AUV and its docking system. Capturing the user design intents in the optimization process, the proposed method produces a set of optimal design parameters that satisfies a set of predefined bounds, constraints, and initial conditions. Three cases of design optimization are reported for different design intents.

We examine analytically and numerically a variant of the stochastic Kuramoto model for phase oscillators coupled on a general network. Two populations of phased oscillators are considered, labelled `Blue' and `Red', each with their respective networks, internal and external couplings, natural frequencies, and frustration parameters in the dynamical interactions of the phases. We disentagle the different ways that additive Gaussian noise may influence the dynamics by applying it separately on zero modes or normal modes corresponding to a Laplacian decomposition for the sub-graphs for Blue and Red. Under the linearisation ansatz that the oscillators of each respective network remain relatively phase-sychronised centroids or clusters, we are able to obtain simple closed-form expressions using the Fokker-Planck approach for the dynamics of the average angle of the two centroids. In some cases, this leads to subtle effects of metastability that we may analytically describe using the theory of ratchet potentials. These considerations are extended to a regime where one of the populations has fragmented in two. The analytic expressions we derive largely predict the dynamics of the non-linear system seen in numerical simulation. In particular, we find that noise acting on a more tightly coupled population allows for improved synchronisation of the other population where deterministically it is fragmented.

Color reconnection and Bose-Einstein correlations not only can have an influence on the measurement of the W-mass in the fully hadronic W+W- decay channel at LEP2, but also can give essential information on the structure of the QCD vacuum and the space-time development of a q_1\bar q_2 system. Recent developments are critically analyzed, with particular emphasis on the models used in this field. More sensitive variables are needed to distinguish between color reconnection models, while more experimental knowledge has to be built into the Bose-Einstein models and, above all, these two closely related phenomena have to be treated in common. Both effects are determined by the space-time overlap of the W+ and W- decay products. Vital experimental information on the space-time development of the decay of the q_1\bar q_2 system is becoming available from the high-statistics data on hadronic Z decay and models will have to be able to explain this evidence before being used to predict interference effects in hadronic W+W- decay.

We study the quantum-mechanical effects arising in a single semiconductor core/shell quantum dot controllably sandwiched between two plasmonic nanorods. Control over the position and the sandwich confinement structure is achieved by the use of a linear-trap, liquid-crystal line defect and laser tweezers that push the sandwich together. This arrangement allows for the study of exciton plasmon interactions in a single structure, unaltered by ensemble effects or the complexity of dielectric interfaces. We demonstrate the effect of plasmonic confinement on the photon-antibunching behavior of the quantum dot and its luminescence lifetime. The quantum dot behaves as a single emitter when nanorods are far away from the quantum dot but shows possible multiexciton emission and a significantly decreased lifetime when tightly confined in a plasmonic sandwich. These findings demonstrate that liquid crystal defects, combined with laser tweezers, enable a versatile platform to study plasmonic coupling phenomena in a nanoscale laboratory, where all elements can be arranged almost at will.

Dark web marketplaces (DWMs) are online platforms that facilitate illicit trade among millions of users generating billions of dollars in annual revenue. Recently, two interview-based studies have suggested that DWMs may also promote the emergence of direct user-to-user (U2U) trading relationships. Here, we quantify the scale of, and thoroughly investigate, U2U trading around DWMs by analysing 31 million Bitcoin transactions among users of 40 DWMs between June 2011 and Jan 2021. We find that half of the DWM users trade through U2U pairs generating a total trading volume greater than DWMs themselves. We then show that hundreds of thousands of DWM users form stable trading pairs that are persistent over time. Users in stable pairs are typically the ones with the largest trading volume on DWMs. Then, we show that new U2U pairs often form while both users are active on the same DWM, suggesting the marketplace may serve as a catalyst for new direct trading relationships. Finally, we reveal that stable U2U pairs tend to survive DWM closures and that they were not affected by COVID-19, indicating that their trading activity is resilient to external shocks. Our work unveils sophisticated patterns of trade emerging in the dark web and highlights the importance of investigating user behaviour beyond the immediate buyer-seller network on a single marketplace.

We show how to account for correlations between theoretical uncertainties incorporated in parton distribution function (PDF) fits, and the theoretical uncertainties in the predictions made using these PDFs. We demonstrate by explicit calculations, both analytical and numerical, that these correlations can lead to corrections to the central values of the predictions, and reductions in both the PDF uncertainties and the theoretical uncertainties in the prediction. We illustrate our results with predictions for top production rapidity distributions and the Higgs total cross-section at the LHC, using the NLO NNPDF3.1 PDF set which incorporates missing higher order uncertainties. We conclude that the inclusion of correlations can increase both the accuracy and precision of predictions involving PDFs, particularly for processes with data already included in the PDF fit.

As the title of this symposium implies, one of the aims is to examine the future of astrometry as we move from an era in which thanks to the Hipparcos Catalogue everyone has become familiar with milliarcsecond astrometry to an era in which microarcsecond astrometry will become the norm. I will take this look into the future by first providing an overview of present astrometric programmes and how they fit together and then I will attempt to identify the most promising future directions. In addition I discuss the important conditions for the maximization of the scientific return of future large and highly accurate astrometric catalogues; catalogue access and analysis tools, the availability of sufficient auxiliary data and theoretical knowledge, and the education of the future generation of astrometrists.

With the observations of an unprecedented number of oscillating subgiant stars expected from NASA's TESS mission, the asteroseismic characterization of subgiant stars will be a vital task for stellar population studies and for testing our theories of stellar evolution. To determine the fundamental properties of a large sample of subgiant stars efficiently, we developed a deep learning method that estimates distributions of fundamental parameters like age and mass over a wide range of input physics by learning from a grid of stellar models varied in eight physical parameters. We applied our method to four Kepler subgiant stars and compare our results with previously determined estimates. Our results show good agreement with previous estimates for three of them (KIC 11026764, KIC 10920273, KIC 11395018). With the ability to explore a vast range of stellar parameters, we determine that the remaining star, KIC 10005473, is likely to have an age 1 Gyr younger than its previously determined estimate. Our method also estimates the efficiency of overshooting, undershooting, and microscopic diffusion processes, from which we determined that the parameters governing such processes are generally poorly-constrained in subgiant models. We further demonstrate our method's utility for ensemble asteroseismology by characterizing a sample of 30 Kepler subgiant stars, where we find a majority of our age, mass, and radius estimates agree within uncertainties from more computationally expensive grid-based modelling techniques.

We introduce a minimal network model which generates a modular structure in a self-organized way. To this end, we modify the Barabasi-Albert model into the one evolving under the principle of division and independence as well as growth and preferential attachment (PA). A newly added vertex chooses one of the modules composed of existing vertices, and attaches edges to vertices belonging to that module following the PA rule. When the module size reaches a proper size, the module is divided into two, and a new module is created. The karate club network studied by Zachary is a prototypical example. We find that the model can reproduce successfully the behavior of the hierarchical clustering coefficient of a vertex with degree k, C(k), in good agreement with empirical measurements of real world networks.

Numerical difficulties associated with computing matrix elements of operators between Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) wavefunctions have plagued the development of HFB-based many-body theories for decades. The problem arises from divisions by zero in the standard formulation of the nonorthogonal Wick's theorem in the limit of vanishing HFB overlap. In this paper, we present a robust formulation of Wick's theorem that stays well-behaved regardless of whether the HFB states are orthogonal or not. This new formulation ensures cancellation between the zeros of the overlap and the poles of the Pfaffian, which appears naturally in fermionic systems. Our formula explicitly eliminates self-interaction, which otherwise causes additional numerical challenges. A computationally efficient version of our formalism enables robust symmetry-projected HFB calculations with the same computational cost as mean-field theories. Moreover, we avoid potentially diverging normalization factors by introducing a robust normalization procedure. The resulting formalism treats even and odd number of particles on equal footing and reduces to Hartree-Fock as a natural limit. As proof of concept, we present a numerically stable and accurate solution to a Jordan-Wigner-transformed Hamiltonian, whose singularities motivated the present work. Our robust formulation of Wick's theorem is a most promising development for methods using quasiparticle vacuum states.

Recommendations around epidemics tend to focus on individual behaviors, with much less efforts attempting to guide event cancellations and other collective behaviors since most models lack the higher-order structure necessary to describe large gatherings. Through a higher-order description of contagions on networks, we model the impact of a blanket cancellation of events larger than a critical size and find that epidemics can suddenly collapse when interventions operate over groups of individuals rather than at the level of individuals. We relate this phenomenon to the onset of mesoscopic localization, where contagions concentrate around dominant groups.

In this colloquia review we discuss methods for thermal transport calculations for nanojunctions connected to two semi-infinite leads served as heat-baths. Our emphases are on fundamental quantum theory and atomistic models. We begin with an introduction of the Landauer formula for ballistic thermal transport and give its derivation from scattering wave point of view. Several methods (scattering boundary condition, mode-matching, Piccard and Caroli formulas) of calculating the phonon transmission coefficients are given. The nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) method is reviewed and the Caroli formula is derived. We also give iterative methods and an algorithm based on a generalized eigenvalue problem for the calculation of surface Green's functions, which are starting point for an NEGF calculation. A systematic exposition for the NEGF method is presented, starting with the fundamental definitions of the Green's functions, and ending with equations of motion for the contour ordered Green's functions and Feynman diagrammatic expansion. In the later part, we discuss the treatments of nonlinear effects in heat conduction, including a phenomenological expression for the transmission, NEGF for phonon-phonon interactions, molecular dynamics (generalized Langevin) with quantum heat-baths, and electron-phonon interactions. Some new results are also shown. We also briefly review the experimental status of the thermal transport measurements in nanostructures.

Motivated by an approach to visualization of high dimensional statistical data given in Hurley and Oldford (2011), this work examines the clique structure of $J_n(m, m-1)$ Johnson graphs. Cliques and maximal cliques are characterized and proved to be of one of only two types. These types are characterized by features of the intersection and of the union of the subsets of [n] = {1, 2, ..., n} which define the vertices of the graph. Clique numbers and clique partition numbers follow. The results on Johnson graphs are connected to results on intersecting families of sets related to extremal set theory.

A new step-by-step diagonalization procedure for evaluating exact solutions of the nuclear deformed mean-field plus pairing interaction model is proposed via a simple Bethe ansatz in each step from which the eigenvalues and corresponding eigenstates can be obtained progressively. This new approach draws upon an observation that the original one- plus two-body problem in a $k$-particle Hilbert subspace can be mapped unto a one-body grand hard-core boson picture that can be solved step by step with a simple Bethe ansatz known from earlier work. Based on this new procedure, it is further shown that the extended pairing model for deformed nuclei [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 112503 (2004) ] is similar to the standard pairing model with the first step approximation, in which only the lowest energy eigenstate of the standard pure pairing interaction part is taken into consideration. Our analysis show that the standard pairing model with the first step approximation displays similar pair structures of first few exact low-lying states of the model, which, therefore, provides a link between the two models.

We construct a black hole whose interior is the false vacuum and whose exterior is the true vacuum of a classical field theory. From the outside the metric is the usual Schwarzschild one, but from the inside the space is de Sitter with a cosmological constant determined by the energy of the false vacuum. The parameters of the field potential may allow for the false vacuum to exist for more than the present age of the universe. A potentially relevant effective field theory within the context of QCD results in a Schwarzschild radius of about 200 km.

Partial Gr\"obner bases for multiobjective integer linear optimization

In this paper we present a new methodology for solving multiobjective integer linear programs using tools from algebraic geometry. We introduce the concept of partial Gr\"obner basis for a family of multiobjective programs where the right-hand side varies. This new structure extends the notion of Gr\"obner basis for the single objective case, to the case of multiple objectives, i.e., a partial ordering instead of a total ordering over the feasible vectors. The main property of these bases is that the partial reduction of the integer elements in the kernel of the constraint matrix by the different blocks of the basis is zero. It allows us to prove that this new construction is a test family for a family of multiobjective programs. An algorithm '\`a la Buchberger' is developed to compute partial Gr\"obner bases and two different approaches are derived, using this methodology, for computing the entire set of efficient solutions of any multiobjective integer linear problem (MOILP). Some examples illustrate the application of the algorithms and computational experiments are reported on several families of problems.

Comet Interceptor (Comet-I) was selected in June 2019 as the first ESA F-Class mission. In 2029+, Comet-I will hitch a ride to a Sun-Earth L2 quasi-halo orbit, as a co-passenger of ESA's M4 ARIEL mission. It will then remain idle at the L2 point until the right departure conditions are met to intercept a yet-to-be-discovered long period comet (or interstellar body). The fact that Comet-I target is thus unidentified becomes a key aspect of the trajectory and mission design. The paper first analyses the long period comet population and concludes that 2 to 3 feasible targets a year should be expected. Yet, Comet-I will only be able to access some of these, depending mostly on the angular distance between the Earth and the closest nodal point to the Earth's orbit radius. A preliminary analysis of the transfer trajectories has been performed to assess the trade-off between the accessible region and the transfer time for a given spacecraft design, including a fully chemical, a fully electric and a hybrid propulsion system. The different Earth escape options also play a paramount role to enhance Comet-I capability to reach possible long period comet targets. Particularly, Earth-leading intercept configurations have the potential to benefit the most from lunar swing-by departures. Finally, a preliminary Monte Carlo analysis shows that Comet-I has a 95 to 99% likelihood of successfully visit a pristine newly-discovered long period comet in less than 6 years of mission timespan.

A model of interacting electrons living on two chains coupled by a transverse hopping $t_\perp$, is solved exactly by bosonization technique. It is shown that $t_\perp$ does modify the shape of the Fermi surface also in presence of interaction, although charge and spin excitations keep different velocities $u_\rho$, $u_\sigma$. Two different regimes occur: at short distances, $x\ll \xi = (u_\rho - u_\sigma)/4t_\perp$, the two chain model is not sensitive to $t_\perp$, while for larger separation $x\gg \xi$ inter--chain hopping is relevant and generates further singularities in the electron Green function besides those due to spin-charge decoupling.

Ensuring ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) for 5G wireless networks and beyond is of capital importance and is currently receiving tremendous attention in academia and industry. At its core, URLLC mandates a departure from expected utility-based network design approaches, in which relying on average quantities (e.g., average throughput, average delay and average response time) is no longer an option but a necessity. Instead, a principled and scalable framework which takes into account delay, reliability, packet size, network architecture, and topology (across access, edge, and core) and decision-making under uncertainty is sorely lacking. The overarching goal of this article is a first step to fill this void. Towards this vision, after providing definitions of latency and reliability, we closely examine various enablers of URLLC and their inherent tradeoffs. Subsequently, we focus our attention on a plethora of techniques and methodologies pertaining to the requirements of ultra-reliable and low-latency communication, as well as their applications through selected use cases. These results provide crisp insights for the design of low-latency and high-reliable wireless networks.

Erasure codes are widely used in today's storage systems to cope with failures. Most of them use the finite field arithmetic. In this paper, we propose an implementation and a coding speed evaluation of an original method called PYRIT (PolYnomial RIng Transform) to perform operations between elements of a finite field into a bigger ring by using fast transforms between these two structures. Working in such a ring is much easier than working in a finite field. Firstly, it reduces the coding complexity by design. Secondly, it allows simple but efficient \texttt{xor}-based implementations by unrolling the operations thanks to the properties of the ring structure. We evaluate this proposition for Maximum Distance Separable erasure codes and we show that our method has better performances than common codes. Compared to the best known implementations, the coding speeds are increased by a factor varying from $1.5$ to $2$.

We prove that a monoid is sofic, in the sense recently introduced by Ceccherini-Silberstein and Coornaert, whenever the J-class of the identity is a sofic group, and the quotients of this group by orbit stabilisers in the rest of the monoid are amenable. In particular, this shows that the following are all sofic: cancellative monoids with amenable group of units; monoids with sofic group of units and finitely many non-units; and monoids with amenable Schutzenberger groups and finitely many L-classes in each D-class. This provides a very wide range of sofic monoids, subsuming most known examples (with the notable exception of locally residually finite monoids). We conclude by discussing some aspects of the definition, and posing some questions for future research.

We examine a Josephson junction with two Ferromagnets and a spin flipper sandwiched between two superconductors. In such Ferromagnetic Josephson junctions, equilibrium spin torque exists only when Ferromagnets are misaligned. This is explained via the "conventional" mechanism of spin transfer torque, which owes its origin to the misalignment of two Ferromagnets. However, we see surprisingly when the magnetic moments of the Ferromagnets are aligned parallel or antiparallel, there is a finite equilibrium spin torque due to the quantum mechanism of spin-flip scattering. We explore the properties of this unique spin-flip scattering induced equilibrium quantum spin torque, especially its tunability via exchange coupling and phase difference across the superconductors.

We study a current-biased 0-\pi-0 Josephson junction made by high-T_c superconductors, theoretically. When a length of the \pi junction is large enough, this junction contains a vortex-antivortex pair at both ends of the \pi junction. Magnetic flux carried by the vortices is calculated using the sine-Gordon equation. The result shows that the magnetic flux of the vortices is suppressed to zero as the distance between the vortices is reduced. By applying an external current, the orientation of the vortices is reversed, and a voltage pulse is generated. The current needed for this transition and generated pulse energy are calculated. Macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) in this transition is also studied. The tunneling rate has been evaluated by an effective Hamiltonian with one degree of freedom.

We introduce the use of pure molten ortho-phosphoric acid (o-H3PO4) as an electrolyte for selforganizing electrochemistry. This electrolyte allows for the formation of self-organized oxide architectures (one-dimensional nanotubes, nanochannels, nanopores) on metals such as tungsten that up to now were regarded as very difficult to grow self-ordered anodic oxide structures. In this work, we show particularly the fabrication of thick, vertically aligned tungsten oxide nanochannel layers, with pore diameter of ca. 10 nm, and illustrate their potential use in some typical applications.

We consider global optimization problems, where the feasible region $\X$ is a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \geq 10$. For these problems, we demonstrate the following. First: the actual convergence of global random search algorithms is much slower than that given by the classical estimates, based on the asymptotic properties of random points. Second: the usually recommended space exploration schemes are inefficient in the non-asymptotic regime. Specifically, (a) uniform sampling on entire~$\X$ is much less efficient than uniform sampling on a suitable subset of $\X$, and (b) the effect of replacement of random points by low-discrepancy sequences is negligible.

There is one-to-one correspondence between quadratic operators (mapping $\mathbb R^m$ to itself) and cubic matrices. It is known that any quadratic operator corresponding to a stochastic (in a fixed sense) cubic matrix preserves the standard simplex. In this paper we find conditions on the (non-stochastic) cubic matrix ensuring that corresponding quadratic operator preserves simplex. Moreover, we construct several quadratic non-stochastic operators which generate chaotic dynamical systems on the simplex. These chaotic behaviors are \emph{splitted} meaning that the simplex is partitioned into uncountably many invariant (with respect to quadratic operator) subsets and the restriction of the dynamical system on each invariant set is chaos in the sense of Devaney.

Spectroscopic analysis of large biomolecules is critical in a number of applications, including medical diagnostics and label-free biosensing. Recently, it has been shown that Raman spectroscopy of proteins can be used to diagnose some diseases, including a few types of cancer. These experiments have however been performed using traditional Raman spectroscopy and the development of the Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) assays suitable for large biomolecules could lead to a substantial decrease in the amount of specimen necessary for these experiments. We present a new method to achieve high local field enhancement in surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy through the simultaneous adjustment of the lattice plasmons and localized surface plasmon polaritons, in a periodic bilayer nanoantenna array resulting in a high enhancement factor over the sensing area, with relatively high uniformity. The proposed plasmonic nanostructure is comprised of two interacting nanoantenna layers, providing a sharp band-edge lattice plasmon mode and a wide-band localized surface plasmon for the separate enhancement of the pump and emitted Raman signals. We demonstrate the application of the proposed nanostructure for the spectral analysis of large biomolecules by binding a protein (streptavidin) selectively on the hot-spots between the two stacked layers, using a low concentration solution (100 nM) and we successfully acquire its SERS spectrum.

Circadian clocks ubiquitous in life forms ranging bacteria to multi-cellular organisms, often exhibit intrinsic temperature compensation; the period of circadian oscillators is maintained constant over a range of physiological temperatures, despite the expected Arrhenius form for the reaction coefficient. Observations have shown that the amplitude of the oscillation depends on the temperature but the period does not---this suggests that although not every reaction step is temperature independent, the total system comprising several reactions still exhibits compensation. We present a general mechanism for such temperature compensation. Consider a system with multiple activation energy barriers for reactions, with a common enzyme shared across several reaction steps with a higher activation energy. These reaction steps rate-limit the cycle if the temperature is not high. If the total abundance of the enzyme is limited, the amount of free enzyme available to catalyze a specific reaction decreases as more substrates bind to common enzyme. We show that this change in free enzyme abundance compensate for the Arrhenius-type temperature dependence of the reaction coefficient. Taking the example of circadian clocks with cyanobacterial proteins KaiABC consisting of several phosphorylation sites, we show that this temperature compensation mechanisms is indeed valid. Specifically, if the activation energy for phosphorylation is larger than that for dephosphorylation, competition for KaiA shared among the phosphorylation reactions leads to temperature compensation. Moreover, taking a simpler model, we demonstrate the generality of the proposed compensation mechanism, suggesting relevance not only to circadian clocks but to other (bio)chemical oscillators as well.

We elaborate the theory of the stable Bernstein center of a $p$-adic group $G$, and apply it to state a general conjecture on test functions for Shimura varieties due to the author and R. Kottwitz. This conjecture provides a framework by which one might pursue the Langlands-Kottwitz method in a very general situation: not necessarily PEL Shimura varieties with arbitrary level structure at $p$. We give a concrete reinterpretation of the test function conjecture in the context of parahoric level structure. We also use the stable Bernstein center to formulate some of the transfer conjectures (the "fundamental lemmas") that would be needed if one attempts to use the test function conjecture to express the local Hasse-Weil zeta function of a Shimura variety in terms of automorphic $L$-functions.
