We show that the conformal structure for the Riemannian analogues of Kerr black-hole metrics can be given an ambitoric structure. We then discuss the properties of the moment maps. In particular, we observe that the moment map image is not locally convex near the singularity corresponding to the ring singularity in the interior of the black hole. We then proceed to classify regular ambitoric $4$-orbifolds with some completeness assumptions. The tools developed also allow us to prove a partial classification of compact Riemannian $4$-manifolds which admit a Killing $2$-form.

The reconstruction of accurate three-dimensional environment models is one of the most fundamental goals in the field of photogrammetry. Since satellite images provide suitable properties for obtaining large-scale environment reconstructions, there exist a variety of Stereo Matching based methods to reconstruct point clouds for satellite image pairs. Recently, the first Structure from Motion (SfM) based approach has been proposed, which allows to reconstruct point clouds from multiple satellite images. In this work, we propose an extension of this SfM based pipeline that allows us to reconstruct not only point clouds but watertight meshes including texture information. We provide a detailed description of several steps that are mandatory to exploit state-of-the-art mesh reconstruction algorithms in the context of satellite imagery. This includes a decomposition of finite projective camera calibration matrices, a skew correction of corresponding depth maps and input images as well as the recovery of real-world depth maps from reparameterized depth values. The paper presents an extensive quantitative evaluation on multi-date satellite images demonstrating that the proposed pipeline combined with current meshing algorithms outperforms state-of-the-art point cloud reconstruction algorithms in terms of completeness and median error. We make the source code of our pipeline publicly available.

Energetic particle instruments on board GPS satellites form a powerful global prompt proton sensor network (GPPSn) that provides an unprecedented opportunity to monitor and characterize solar energetic protons targeting the Earth. The medium-Earth-orbits of the GPS constellation have the unique advantage of allowing solar energetic protons to be simultaneously measured from multiple points in both open- and closed-field line regions. Examining two example intervals of solar proton events, we showcase in this study how GPS proton data are prepared, calibrated and utilized to reveal important features of solar protons, including their source, acceleration/scattering by interplanetary shocks, the relative position of Earth when impinged by these shocks, the shape of solar particle fronts, the access of solar protons inside the dynamic geomagnetic field, as well temporally-varying proton distributions in both energy and space. By comparing to Van Allen Probes data, GPS proton observations are further demonstrated not only to be useful for qualitatively monitoring the dynamics of solar protons, but also for quantitative scientific research including determining cutoff L-shells. Our results establish that this GPPSn can join forces with other existing solar proton monitors and contribute to observing, warning, understanding and ultimately forecasting the incoming solar energetic proton events.

We prove that a normal subloop $X$ of a Moufang loop $Q$ induces an abelian congruence of $Q$ if and only if each inner mapping of $Q$ restricts to an automorphism of $X$ and $u(xy) = (uy)x$ for all $x,y\in X$ and $u\in Q$. The former condition can be omitted when $X$ is $3$-divisible. This characterization is then used to show that classically solvable finite $3$-divisible Moufang loops are congruence solvable.

We study previously unconsidered 3-3-1 models which are characterized by each lepton generation having a different representation under the gauge group. Flavor-changing neutral currents in the lepton sector occur in these models. To satisfy constraints on mu to 3e decays, the Z' must be heavier than 2 to 40 TeV, depending on the model and assignments of the leptons. These models can result in very unusual Higgs decay modes. In most cases the mu-tau decay state is large (in one case, it is the dominant mode), and in one case, the Higgs to s-sbar rate dominates.

Preferential Bayesian Optimization

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Bayesian optimization (BO) has emerged during the last few years as an effective approach to optimizing black-box functions where direct queries of the objective are expensive. In this paper we consider the case where direct access to the function is not possible, but information about user preferences is. Such scenarios arise in problems where human preferences are modeled, such as A/B tests or recommender systems. We present a new framework for this scenario that we call Preferential Bayesian Optimization (PBO) which allows us to find the optimum of a latent function that can only be queried through pairwise comparisons, the so-called duels. PBO extends the applicability of standard BO ideas and generalizes previous discrete dueling approaches by modeling the probability of the winner of each duel by means of a Gaussian process model with a Bernoulli likelihood. The latent preference function is used to define a family of acquisition functions that extend usual policies used in BO. We illustrate the benefits of PBO in a variety of experiments, showing that PBO needs drastically fewer comparisons for finding the optimum. According to our experiments, the way of modeling correlations in PBO is key in obtaining this advantage.

On Cyclic Solutions to the Min-Max Latency Multi-Robot Patrolling Problem

We consider the following surveillance problem: Given a set $P$ of $n$ sites in a metric space and a set of $k$ robots with the same maximum speed, compute a patrol schedule of minimum latency for the robots. Here a patrol schedule specifies for each robot an infinite sequence of sites to visit (in the given order) and the latency $L$ of a schedule is the maximum latency of any site, where the latency of a site $s$ is the supremum of the lengths of the time intervals between consecutive visits to $s$. When $k=1$ the problem is equivalent to the travelling salesman problem (TSP) and thus it is NP-hard. We have two main results. We consider cyclic solutions in which the set of sites must be partitioned into $\ell$ groups, for some~$\ell \leq k$, and each group is assigned a subset of the robots that move along the travelling salesman tour of the group at equal distance from each other. Our first main result is that approximating the optimal latency of the class of cyclic solutions can be reduced to approximating the optimal travelling salesman tour on some input, with only a $1+\varepsilon$ factor loss in the approximation factor and an $O\left(\left( k/\varepsilon \right)^k\right)$ factor loss in the runtime, for any $\varepsilon >0$. Our second main result shows that an optimal cyclic solution is a $2(1-1/k)$-approximation of the overall optimal solution. Note that for $k=2$ this implies that an optimal cyclic solution is optimal overall. The results have a number of consequences. For the Euclidean version of the problem, for instance, combining our results with known results on Euclidean TSP, yields a PTAS for approximating an optimal cyclic solution, and it yields a $(2(1-1/k)+\varepsilon)$-approximation of the optimal unrestricted solution. If the conjecture mentioned above is true, then our algorithm is actually a PTAS for the general problem in the Euclidean setting.

A Reconfigurable Linear RF Analog Processor for Realizing Microwave Artificial Neural Network

Owing to the data explosion and rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly deep neural networks (DNNs), the ever-increasing demand for large-scale matrix-vector multiplication has become one of the major issues in machine learning (ML). Training and evaluating such neural networks rely on heavy computational resources, resulting in significant system latency and power consumption. To overcome these issues, analog computing using optical interferometric-based linear processors have recently appeared as promising candidates in accelerating matrix-vector multiplication and lowering power consumption. On the other hand, radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic waves can also exhibit similar advantages as the optical counterpart by performing analog computation at light speed with lower power. Furthermore, RF devices have extra benefits such as lower cost, mature fabrication, and analog-digital mixed design simplicity, which has great potential in realizing affordable, scalable, low latency, low power, near-sensor radio frequency neural network (RFNN) that may greatly enrich RF signal processing capability. In this work, we propose a 2X2 reconfigurable linear RF analog processor in theory and experiment, which can be applied as a matrix multiplier in an artificial neural network (ANN). The proposed device can be utilized to realize a 2X2 simple RFNN for data classification. An 8X8 linear analog processor formed by 28 RFNN devices are also applied in a 4-layer ANN for Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology (MNIST) dataset classification.

A modal approach to quantum temporal imaging

We consider the problem of quantum temporal imaging in the case where the time lens is implemented by a Sum Frequency Generation nonlinear process, in particular when the device is operated close to 100% conversion efficiency. In the general case where the time lens also presents a finite aperture and a non-perfect phase-matching the relevant figures of merit, as for example the temporal resolution, do not have an explicit expression. As a consequence, the performances of imaging scheme are difficult to assess. Having a reliable estimation of these figures of merits is particularly important because they can be significantly different from the regime of low conversion efficiency usually considered in classical temporal imaging. We show that this problem can be approached in terms of the eigenmodes of the imaging scheme and we show how its relevant figures of merit can be extracted from the modal description of the imaging scheme. As a consequence we obtain criteria allowing to design imaging schemes with close to unity efficiencies.

Successful recurrent models such as long short-term memories (LSTMs) and gated recurrent units (GRUs) use ad hoc gating mechanisms. Empirically these models have been found to improve the learning of medium to long term temporal dependencies and to help with vanishing gradient issues. We prove that learnable gates in a recurrent model formally provide quasi- invariance to general time transformations in the input data. We recover part of the LSTM architecture from a simple axiomatic approach. This result leads to a new way of initializing gate biases in LSTMs and GRUs. Ex- perimentally, this new chrono initialization is shown to greatly improve learning of long term dependencies, with minimal implementation effort.

We show that the asymmetry in the neutral current events (e.g. Nu N -> Nu N pi^0) can be used to discriminate between Nu_mu - Nu_tau and Nu_mu - Nu_st mixing as being responsible for the atmospheric neutrino anomaly. Specifically, A_N vanishes for Nu_mu - Nu_tau mixing and is about 2/3 A_mu for Nu_mu - Nu_st mixing.

In this paper, we are going to find meaning of words based on distinct situations. Word Sense Disambiguation is used to find meaning of words based on live contexts using supervised and unsupervised approaches. Unsupervised approaches use online dictionary for learning, and supervised approaches use manual learning sets. Hand tagged data are populated which might not be effective and sufficient for learning procedure. This limitation of information is main flaw of the supervised approach. Our proposed approach focuses to overcome the limitation using learning set which is enriched in dynamic way maintaining new data. Trivial filtering method is utilized to achieve appropriate training data. We introduce a mixed methodology having Modified Lesk approach and Bag-of-Words having enriched bags using learning methods. Our approach establishes the superiority over individual Modified Lesk and Bag-of-Words approaches based on experimentation.

Grover's search algorithm is one of the first quantum algorithms to exhibit a provable quantum advantage. It forms the backbone of numerous quantum applications and is widely used in benchmarking efforts. Here, we report better-than-classical success probabilities for a complete Grover search algorithm on the largest scale demonstrated to date, of up to five qubits, using two different IBM superconducting transmon qubit platforms. This is enabled, on the four and five-qubit scale, by error suppression via robust dynamical decoupling pulse sequences, without which we do not observe better-than-classical results. Further improvements arise after the use of measurement error mitigation, but the latter is insufficient by itself for achieving better-than-classical performance. For two qubits, we demonstrate a success probability of 99.5% via the use of the [[4,2,2]] quantum error-detection (QED) code. This constitutes a demonstration of quantum algorithmic breakeven via QED. Along the way, we introduce algorithmic error tomography, a method of independent interest that provides a holistic view of the errors accumulated throughout an entire quantum algorithm, filtered via the errors detected by the QED code used to encode the circuit. We demonstrate that algorithmic error tomography provides a stringent test of an error model based on a combination of amplitude damping, dephasing, and depolarization.

Actually, in this article we prove that for every quadratic in momenta St\"ackel system (defined on a 2n-dimensional Poisson manifold) for which the St\"ackel matrix consists of monomials in position coordinates there exist infinitely many quantizations - parametrized by n arbitrary functions - that turn this system into a quantum separable St\"ackel system.

The gas cloud G2 is currently being tidally disrupted by the Galactic Centre super-massive black hole, Sgr A*. The region around the black hole is populated by $\sim 30$ Wolf-Rayet stars, which produce strong outflows. We explore the possibility that gas clumps, such as G2, originate from the collision of stellar winds via the non-linear thin shell instability. Following an analytical approach, we study the thermal evolution of slabs formed in the symmetric collision of winds, evaluating whether instabilities occur, and estimating possible clump masses. We find that the collision of relatively slow ($< 750$ km s$^{-1}$) and strong ($\sim 10^{-5}$ Msun yr$^{-1}$) stellar winds from stars at short separations ($<10$ mpc) is a process that indeed could produce clumps of G2's mass and above. Such short separation encounters of single stars along their known orbits are not common in the Galactic Centre, making this process a possible but unlikely origin for G2. We also discuss clump formation in close binaries such as IRS 16SW and in asymmetric encounters as promising alternatives that deserve further numerical study.

We prove a generalization of van der Corput's difference theorem for sequences of vectors in a Hilbert space. This generalization is obtained by establishing a connection between sequences of vectors in the first Hilbert space with a vector in a new Hilbert space whose spectral type with respect to a certain unitary operator is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We use this generalization to obtain applications regarding recurrence and multiple ergodic averages when we have measure preserving automorphisms T and S that do not necessarily commute, but T has a maximal spectral type that is mutually singular with the Lebesgue measure.

We constrain the effective theory of one-body dark matter-nucleon interactions using neutrino telescope observations. We derive exclusion limits on the 28 coupling constants of the theory, exploring interaction operators previously considered in dark matter direct detection only, and using new nuclear response functions recently derived through nuclear structure calculations. We determine for what interactions neutrino telescopes are superior to current direct detection experiments, and show that Hydrogen is not the most important element in the exclusion limit calculation for the majority of the spin-dependent operators.

A novel radiation detector based on an artificial single crystal diamond was used to characterize in detail the energy distribution of neutron reference fields at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) and their contamination with charged particles. The monoenergetic reference fields at PTB in the neutron energy range from 1.5 MeV up to 19 MeV are generated by proton and deuteron beams impinging on solid and gas targets of tritium and deuterium. The energy of the incoming particles and the variation of the angle under which the measurement is performed produce monoenergetic reference fields with different mean energies and line shapes. In this paper we present high resolution neutron spectrometry measurements of different monoenergetic reference fields. The results are compared with calculated spectra taking into account the actual target parameters. Line structures in the order of 80 keV for a neutron energy of 9 MeV were resolved. The shift of the mean energy and the increasing of the width of the neutron peak with increasing pressure in the gas target in the order of 30 keV were measured. Another result is the determination of the contamination of the neutron field at 14 MeV with high energy charged particles (protons) from side reactions inside the T-target. The experiments have shown that this detector is an easy to operate compact neutron spectrometer with extremely good energy resolution and that detailed structures in the line shapes of monoenergetic neutron fields can be resolved without using time of flight techniques.

This paper presents classes of exact solutions for nonlinear ordinary differential equations that arise as a saddle point condition for scalar field theories in both integer and noninteger $D$ spacetime dimensions. These solutions are for Euclidean theories; they are found by exploiting the dimensional consistency of the differential equation for a single massless scalar field followed by transforming to an autonomous equation. The solutions depend on the power of the interaction as well as on the spatial dimension, both of which may be noninteger. Scalar equations, which arise in the study of conformal invariance, fit into this framework and classes of new solutions are found. The behaviour of the solutions as $D$ approaches 2 from above is discussed.

Possibilities for using geometry and topology to analyze statistical problems in biology raise a host of novel questions in geometry, probability, algebra, and combinatorics that demonstrate the power of biology to influence the future of pure mathematics. This expository article is a tour through some biological explorations and their mathematical ramifications. The article starts with evolution of novel topological features in wing veins of fruit flies, which are quantified using the algebraic structure of multiparameter persistent homology. The statistical issues involved highlight mathematical implications of sampling from moduli spaces. These lead to geometric probability on stratified spaces, including the sticky phenomenon for Frechet means and the origin of this mathematical area in the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees.

We report the photoresponse of niobium diselenide (NbSe$_2$), a transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) which exhibits superconducting properties down to a single layer. Devices are built by using micro-mechanically cleaved 2 to 10 layers and tested under current bias using nano-optical mapping in the 350mK-5K range, where they are found to be superconducting. The superconducting state can be broken by absorption of light, resulting in a voltage signal when the devices are current biased. The response found to be energy dependent making the devices useful for applications requiring energy resolution, such as bolometry, spectroscopy and infrared imaging.

We derive presentations of the interval groups related to all quasi-Coxeter elements in the Coxeter group of type $D_n$. Type $D_n$ is the only infinite family of finite Coxeter groups that admits proper quasi-Coxeter elements. The presentations we obtain are over a set of generators in bijection with what we call a Carter generating set, and the relations are those defined by the related Carter diagram together with a twisted or a cycle commutator relator, depending on whether the quasi-Coxeter element is a Coxeter element or not. The proof is based on the description of two combinatorial techniques related to the intervals of quasi-Coxeter elements. In a subsequent work [4], we complete our analysis to cover all the exceptional cases of finite Coxeter groups, and establish that almost all the interval groups related to proper quasi-Coxeter elements are not isomorphic to the related Artin groups, hence establishing a new family of interval groups with nice presentations. Alongside the proof of the main results, we establish important properties related to the dual approach to Coxeter and Artin groups.

We currently perform calculations with an improved staggered fermion action (p4fat3). We use a strange quark mass that has been tuned to its physical value and light quarks of mass m_s/20 on lattices of size 32^3x8. This corresponds to an almost physical light quark mass. We present first results on the low temperature part of the equation of state of QCD. Through comparison with the preliminary hotQCD results on the N_tau=8 equation of state, which have been obtained with twice heavier light quark masses, we can quantify the quark mass dependence of the equation of state in the low temperature regime. We also comment on the quark mass dependence of the equation of state at high temperature.

We propose a data-driven framework for optimizing privacy-preserving data release mechanisms to attain the information-theoretically optimal tradeoff between minimizing distortion of useful data and concealing specific sensitive information. Our approach employs adversarially-trained neural networks to implement randomized mechanisms and to perform a variational approximation of mutual information privacy. We validate our Privacy-Preserving Adversarial Networks (PPAN) framework via proof-of-concept experiments on discrete and continuous synthetic data, as well as the MNIST handwritten digits dataset. For synthetic data, our model-agnostic PPAN approach achieves tradeoff points very close to the optimal tradeoffs that are analytically-derived from model knowledge. In experiments with the MNIST data, we visually demonstrate a learned tradeoff between minimizing the pixel-level distortion versus concealing the written digit.

Numerical study of the giant nonlocal resistance in spin-orbital coupled graphene

Recent experiments find the signal of giant nonlocal resistance $R_{NL}$ in H-shaped graphene samples due to the spin/valley Hall effect. Interestingly, when the Fermi energy deviates from the Dirac point, $R_{NL}$ decreases to zero much more rapidly compared with the local resistance $R_L$, and the well-known relation of $R_{NL}\propto R_L^3$ is not satisfied. In this work, based on the non-equilibrium Green's function method, we explain such transport phenomena in the H-shaped graphene with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. When the Fermi energy is near the Dirac point, the nonlocal resistance is considerably large and is much sharper than the local one. Moreover, the relationship between the Rashba effect and the fast decay of $R_{NL}$ compared with $R_L$ is further investigated. We find that the Rashba effect does not contribute not only to the fast decay but also to the peak of $R_{NL}$ itself. Actually, it is the extremely small density of states near the Dirac point that leads to the large peak of $R_{NL}$, while the fast decay results from the quasi-ballistic mechanism. Finally, we revise the classic formula $R_{NL}\propto R_L^3$ by replacing $R_{NL}$ with $R_{Hall}$, which represents the nonlocal resistance merely caused by the spin Hall effect, and the relation holds well.

We present an analysis of the XMM-Newton and Chandra X-ray data of the young Type Ia supernova remnant 0519-69.0 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We used data from both the Chandra ACIS and XMM-Newton EPIC-MOS instruments, and high resolution X-ray spectra obtained with the XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer. The Chandra data show that there is a radial stratification of oxygen, intermediate mass elements and iron, with the emission from more massive elements more toward the center. Using a deprojection technique we measure a forward shock radius of 4.0(3) pc and a reverse shock radius of 2.7(4) pc. We took the observed stratification of the shocked ejecta into account in the modeling of the X-ray spectra with multi-component NEI models, with the components corresponding to layers dominated by one or two elements. An additional component was added in order to represent the ISM, which mostly contributed to the continuum emission. This model fits the data well, and was also employed to characterize the spectra of distinct regions extracted from the Chandra data. From our spectral analysis we find that the fractional masses of shocked ejecta for the most abundant elements are: M(O)=32%, M(Si/S)=7%/5%, M(Ar+Ca)=1%, and M(Fe) = 55%. From the continuum component we derive a circumstellar density of nH= 2.4(2)/cm^3. This density, together with the measurements of the forward and reverse shock radii suggest an age of 450+/-200 yr,somewhat lower than, but consistent with the estimate based on the optical light echo (600+/-200 yr). From the RGS spectra we measured a Doppler broadening of sigma=1873+/-50 km/s, from implying a forward shock velocity of vS = 2770+/-500 km/s. We discuss the results in the context of single degenerate explosion models, using semi-analytical and numerical modeling, and compare the characteristics of 0519-69.0 with those of other Type Ia supernova remnants.

A unified view is given to recent developments about a systematic method of constructing rational mappings as ergodic transformations with non-uniform invariant measures on the unit interval I=[0,1]. All of the rational ergodic mappings of I with explicit non-uniform invariant densities can be obtained by addition theorems of elliptic functions. It is shown here that the class of the rational ergodic mappings I->I are essentially same as the permutable rational functions obtained by J. F. Ritt.

The classical AM-GM inequality has been generalized in a number of ways. Generalizations which incorporate variance appear to be the most useful in economics and finance, as well as mathematically natural. Previous work leaves unanswered the question of finding sharp bounds for the geometric mean in terms of the arithmetic mean and variance. In this paper we prove such an inequality. A particular consequence is easily described: among all positive sequences having given length, arithmetic mean and nonzero variance, the geometric mean is maximal when all terms in the sequence except one are equal to each other and are less than the arithmetic mean.

The inherent existence of multi phases in iron oxide nanostructures highlights the significance of them being investigated deliberately to understand and possibly control the phases. Here, the effects of annealing at 250 0C with a variable duration on the bulk magnetic and structural properties of high aspect ratio bi-phase iron oxide nanorods with ferrimagnetic Fe3O4 and antiferromagnetic alpha-Fe2O3 is explored. Increasing annealing time under a free flow of oxygen enhanced the alpha-Fe2O3 volume fraction, and improved the crystallinity of the Fe3O4 phase, identified in changes in the magnetization as a function of annealing time. A critical annealing time of approximately 3 hours maximized the presence of both phases, as observed via an enhancement in the magnetization and an interfacial pinning effect. This is attributed to disordered spins separating the magnetically distinct phases which tend to align with the application of a magnetic field at high temperatures. The increased antiferromagnetic phase can be distinguished due to the field-induced metamagnetic transitions observed in structures annealed for more than 3 hours and was especially prominent in the 9-hour annealed sample. Our controlled study in determining the changes in volume fractions with annealing time will enable precise control over phase tunability in iron oxide nanorods, allowing custom-made phase volume fractions in different applications ranging from spintronics to biomedical applications.

In this paper we introduce a new methodology for smooth rigidity of Anosov diffeomorphisms based on "matching functions." The main observation is that under certain bunching assumptions on the diffeomorphism the periodic cycle functionals can provide such matching functions. For example we consider a sufficiently small C^1 neighborhood of a linear hyperbolic automorphism of the 3-dimensional torus which has a pair of complex conjugate eigenvalues. Then we show that two very non-algebraic (an open and dense condition) Anosov diffeomorphisms from this neighborhood are smoothly conjugate if and only they have matching Jacobian periodic data. We also obtain a similar result for certain higher dimensional codimension one Anosov diffeomorphisms.

In this paper, we revisit the classical linear turning point problem for the second order differential equation $\epsilon^2 x'' +\mu(t)x=0$ with $\mu(0)=0,\,\mu'(0)\ne 0$ for $0<\epsilon\ll 1$. Written as a first order system, $t=0$ therefore corresponds to a turning point connecting hyperbolic and elliptic regimes. Our main result is that we provide an alternative approach to WBK that is based upon dynamical systems theory, including GSPT and blowup, and we bridge -- perhaps for the first time -- hyperbolic and elliptic theories of slow-fast systems. As an advantage, we only require finite smoothness of $\mu$. The approach we develop will be useful in other singular perturbation problems with hyperbolic-to-elliptic turning points.

Machine learning (ML) algorithms and machine learning based software systems implicitly or explicitly involve complex flow of information between various entities such as training data, feature space, validation set and results. Understanding the statistical distribution of such information and how they flow from one entity to another influence the operation and correctness of such systems, especially in large-scale applications that perform classification or prediction in real time. In this paper, we propose a visual approach to understand and analyze flow of information during model training and serving phases. We build the visualizations using a technique called Sankey Diagram - conventionally used to understand data flow among sets - to address various use cases of in a machine learning system. We demonstrate how the proposed technique, tweaked and twisted to suit a classification problem, can play a critical role in better understanding of the training data, the features, and the classifier performance. We also discuss how this technique enables diagnostic analysis of model predictions and comparative analysis of predictions from multiple classifiers. The proposed concept is illustrated with the example of categorization of millions of products in the e-commerce domain - a multi-class hierarchical classification problem.

Extensions of the Standard Model of particles commonly predict the existence of axion(-like) particles (ALPs) that could be detected through their coupling to photons in external magnetic fields. This coupling could lead to modifications of $\gamma$-ray spectra from extragalactic sources. Above a certain energy, the $\gamma$-ray flux should be exponentially damped due to the interaction with photons of background radiations fields. ALPs, on the other hand, propagate unimpeded over cosmological distances and a reconversion into $\gamma$-rays could lead to an additional component in the spectra. Here, we present the sensitivity of the proposed Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) to detect this spectral hardening. Using the full instrumental response functions of CTA, a combined likelihood analysis of four $\gamma$-ray sources shows that a significant detection of the ALP signal is possible for couplings $g_{a\gamma} \gtrsim 2\times10^{-11}\,\mathrm{GeV}^{-1}$ and ALP masses $m_a \lesssim 100\,\mathrm{neV}$. We discuss the dependency of these values on different model assumptions and magnetic-field scenarios and identify the best observation strategy to search for an ALP induced boost of the $\gamma$-ray flux.

We calculate the vacuum polarization-induced ellipticity acquired by a linearly polarized laser beam of angular frequency $\bar \omega$ on traversing a region containing a transverse magnetic field rotating with a small angular velocity $\Omega$ around the beam axis. The transmitted beam contains the fundamental frequency $\bar \omega$ and weak sidebands of frequency $\bar \omega \pm 2 \Omega$, but no other sidebands. To first order in small quantities, the ellipticity acquired by the transmitted beam is independent of $\Omega$, and is the same as would be calculated in the approximation of regarding the magnetic field as fixed at its instantaneous angular orientation, using the standard vacuum birefringence formulas for a static magnetic field. Also to first order, there is no rotation of the polarization plane of the transmitted beam. Analogous statements hold when the magnetic field strength is slowly varying in time.

A search for the Higgs boson in H->WW->ee and H->WW->mu+tau decays in ppbar collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV is presented. The data have been collected by the Run II DO detector. In order to maximize the sensitivity multivariate techniques such as artificial neural networks (NN), matrix element methods and likelihoods are used. No excess above the Standard Model background is observed and limits on the production cross section times branching ratio for Higgs masses between 115 and 200 GeV are set.

Extreme multi-label (XML) classification refers to the task of supervised multi-label learning that involves a large number of labels. Hence, scalability of the classifier with increasing label dimension is an important consideration. In this paper, we develop a method called LightDXML which modifies the recently developed deep learning based XML framework by using label embeddings instead of feature embedding for negative sampling and iterating cyclically through three major phases: (1) proxy training of label embeddings (2) shortlisting of labels for negative sampling and (3) final classifier training using the negative samples. Consequently, LightDXML also removes the requirement of a re-ranker module, thereby, leading to further savings on time and memory requirements. The proposed method achieves the best of both worlds: while the training time, model size and prediction times are on par or better compared to the tree-based methods, it attains much better prediction accuracy that is on par with the deep learning based methods. Moreover, the proposed approach achieves the best tail-label prediction accuracy over most state-of-the-art XML methods on some of the large datasets\footnote{accepted in IJCNN 2023, partial funding from MAPG grant and IIIT Seed grant at IIIT, Hyderabad, India.

We introduce a numerical variational method based on the Rayleigh-Ritz optimization principle for predicting two-dimensional self-trapped beams in nonlinear media. This technique overcomes the limitation of the traditional variational approximation in performing analytical Lagrangian integration and differentiation. Approximate soliton solutions of a generalized nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation are obtained, demonstrating robustness of the beams of various types (fundamental, vortices, multipoles, azimuthons) in the course of their propagation. The algorithm offers possibilities to produce more sophisticated soliton profiles in general nonlinear models.

Establishing that a demand mapping is injective is core first step for a variety of methodologies. When a version of the law of demand holds, global injectivity can be checked by seeing whether the demand mapping is constant over any line segments. When we add the assumption of differentiability, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for injectivity that generalize classical \cite{gale1965jacobian} conditions for quasi-definite Jacobians.

This short review article provides a pedagogical introduction to the rapidly growing research field of Majorana fermions in topological superconductors. We first discuss in some details the simplest "toy model" in which Majoranas appear, namely a one-dimensional tight-binding representation of a p-wave superconductor, introduced more than ten years ago by Kitaev. We then give a general introduction to the remarkable properties of Majorana fermions in condensed matter systems, such as their intrinsically non-local nature and exotic exchange statistics, and explain why these quasiparticles are suspected to be especially well suited for low-decoherence quantum information processing. We also discuss the experimentally promising (and perhaps already successfully realized) possibility of creating topological superconductors using semiconductors with strong spin-orbit coupling, proximity-coupled to standard s-wave superconductors and exposed to a magnetic field. The goal is to provide an introduction to the subject for experimentalists or theorists who are new to the field, focusing on the aspects which are most important for understanding the basic physics. The text should be accessible for readers with a basic understanding of quantum mechanics and second quantization, and does not require knowledge of quantum field theory or topological states of matter.

There is no theoretical reason to think that the spin-flip component of the Pomeron is zero. One can measure the spin-flip part using Coulomb-nuclear interference (CNI). Perturbative QCD calculations show that the spin-flip component is sensitive to the smallest quark separation in the proton, while the non-flip part probes the largest separation. According to HERA results on the proton structure function at very low x the energy dependence of the cross-section correlates with the size of the color dipole. Analysing the data from HERA we predict that the ratio of the spin-flip to non-flip amplitude grows with energy as $r(s)\propto (1/x)^{0.1-0.2}$, violating Regge factorisation of the Pomeron.

NGC253 is the nearest spiral galaxy with a nuclear starburst which becomes the best candidate to study the relationship between starburst and AGN activity. However, this central region is veiled by large amounts of dust, and it has been so far unclear which is the true dynamical nucleus. The near infrared spectroscopy could be advantageous in order to shed light on the true nucleus identity. Using Flamingos-2 at Gemini South we have taken deep K-band spectra along the major axis and through the brightest infrared source. We present evidence showing that the brightest near infrared and mid infrared source in the central region, already known as radio source TH7 and so far considered just a stellar supercluster, in fact, presents various symptoms of a genuine galactic nucleus. Therefore, it should be considered a valid nucleus candidate. It is the most massive compact infrared object in the central region, located at 2.0" of the symmetry center of the galactic bar. Moreover, our data indicate that this object is surrounded by a large circumnuclear stellar disk and it is also located at the rotation center of the large molecular gas disk of NGC 253. Furthermore, a kinematic residual appears in the H2 rotation curve with a sinusoidal shape consistent with an outflow centered in the candidate nucleus position. The maximum outflow velocity is located about 14 pc from TH7, which is consistent with the radius of a shell detected around the nucleus candidate observed at 18.3 {\mu}m (Qa) and 12.8 {\mu}m ([NeII]) with T-ReCS. Also, the Br_gamma emission line profile is blue-shifted and this emission line has also the highest equivalent width at this position. All these evidences point out TH7 as the best candidate to be the galactic nucleus of NGC 253.

A stochastic cumulant GW method is presented, allowing us to map the evolution of photoemission spectra, quasiparticle energies, lifetimes and emergence of collective excitations from molecules to bulk-like systems with up to thousands of valence electrons, including Si nanocrystals and nanoplatelet. The quasiparticle energies rise due to their coupling with collective shake-up (plasmon) excitations, and this coupling leads to significant spectral weight loss (up to 50% for the low energy states), shortening the lifetimes and shifting the spectral features to lower energy by as much as 0.6 eV. Such features are common to all the systems studied irrespective of their size and shape. For small and low dimensional systems the surface plasmon resonances affect the frequency of the collective excitation and position of the satellites.

By considering the parity of the degrees and levels of nodes in increasing trees, a new combinatorial interpretation for the coefficients of the Taylor expansions of the Jacobi elliptic functions is found. As one application of this new interpretation, a conjecture of Ma-Mansour-Wang-Yeh is solved. Unifying the concepts of increasing trees and plane trees, Lin-Ma-Ma-Zhou introduced weakly increasing trees on a multiset. A symmetry joint distribution of "even-degree nodes on odd levels" and "odd-degree nodes" on weakly increasing trees is found, extending the Schett polynomials, a generalization of the Jacobi elliptic functions introduced by Schett, to multisets. A combinatorial proof and an algebraic proof of this symmetry are provided, as well as several relevant interesting consequences. Moreover, via introducing a group action on trees, we prove the partial $\gamma$-positivity of the multiset Schett polynomials, a result implies both the symmetry and the unimodality of these polynomials.

Very recently, the idea of studying structures equipped with two or more soft topologies has been considered by several researchers. Soft bitopological spaces were introduced and studied, in 2014, by Ittanagi as a soft counterpart of the notion of bitopological space and, independently, in 2015, by Naz, Shabir and Ali. In 2017, Hassan too introduced the concept of soft tritopological spaces and gave some first results. The notion of N-topological space related to ordinary topological spaces was instead introduced and studied, in 2011, by Tawfiq and Majeed. In this paper we introduce the concept of Soft N-Topological Space as generalization both of the concepts of Soft Topological Space and N-Topological Space and we investigate such class of spaces and their basic properties with particular regard to their subspaces, the parameterized families of crisp topologies generated by them and some new separation axioms called N-wise soft T0, N-wise soft T1, and N-wise soft T2.

We consider the upper bound of Piltz divisor problem over number fields. Piltz divisor problem is known as a generalization of the Dirichlet divisor problem. We deal with this problem over number fields and improve the error term of this function for many cases. Our proof uses the estimate of exponential sums. We also show uniform results for ideal counting function and relatively $r$-prime lattice points as one of applications.

The description of the reduced hierarchies is based on the Hirota bilinear identity and an extra bilinear relation characterising the reduction. We derive the reduction conditions in terms of the Lax operator and higher linear operators of the hierarchy, as well as in terms of the basic two-component KP system of equations.

Accurately predicting the performance of different optimization algorithms for previously unseen problem instances is crucial for high-performing algorithm selection and configuration techniques. In the context of numerical optimization, supervised regression approaches built on top of exploratory landscape analysis are becoming very popular. From the point of view of Machine Learning (ML), however, the approaches are often rather naive, using default regression or classification techniques without proper investigation of the suitability of the ML tools. With this work, we bring to the attention of our community the possibility to personalize regression models to specific types of optimization problems. Instead of aiming for a single model that works well across a whole set of possibly diverse problems, our personalized regression approach acknowledges that different models may suite different types of problems. Going one step further, we also investigate the impact of selecting not a single regression model per problem, but personalized ensembles. We test our approach on predicting the performance of numerical optimization heuristics on the BBOB benchmark collection.

The frustrated spin-1/2 model with weakly anisotropic ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor and antiferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor exchanges is studied with use of variational mean-field approach, scaling estimates of the infrared divergencies in the perturbation theory and finite-size calculations. The ground state phase diagram of this model contains three phases: the ferromagnetic phase, the commensurate spin-liquid phase and the incommensurate phase. The non-trivial behavior of the boundaries between these phases and the character of the phase transitions in case of weak anisotropy are determined.

We compare our results with the standard models based on bosonic heat baths showing their main differences and similarities. In particular, we study special forms for the spectral density of the bath which give results quite different from the standard models.

One of the features inherent in nested Archimedean copulas, also called hierarchical Archimedean copulas, is their rooted tree structure. A nonparametric, rank-based method to estimate this structure is presented. The idea is to represent the target structure as a set of trivariate structures, each of which can be estimated individually with ease. Indeed, for any three variables there are only four possible rooted tree structures and, based on a sample, a choice can be made by performing comparisons between the three bivariate margins of the empirical distribution of the three variables. The set of estimated trivariate structures can then be used to build an estimate of the target structure. The advantage of this estimation method is that it does not require any parametric assumptions concerning the generator functions at the nodes of the tree.

I derive up to second order in Eulerian perturbation theory a new relation between the weakly nonlinear density and velocity fields. In the case of unsmoothed fields, density at a given point turns out to be a purely local function of the expansion (divergence) and shear of the velocity field. The relation depends on the cosmological parameter Omega, strongly by the factor f(Omega) = Omega^{0.6} and weakly by the factors K(Omega) and C(Omega) proportional to Omega^{-2/63} and Omega^{-1/21} respectively. The Gramann solution is found to be equivalent to the derived relation with the weak Omega-dependence neglected. To make the relation applicable to the real world, I extend it for the case of smoothed fields. The resulting formula, when averaged over shear given divergence, reproduces up to second order the density-velocity divergence relation of Chodorowski & Lokas; however, it has smaller spread. It makes the formula a new attractive local estimator of large-scale density from velocity.

A scalar field theory with a $\chi^\dag\chi\phi$ interaction is known to be unstable. Yet it has been used frequently without any sign of instability in standard text book examples and research articles. In order to reconcile these seemingly conflicting results, we show that the theory is stable if the Fock space of all intermediate states is limited to a {\em finite} number of $\chi{\bar\chi}$ loops associated with field $\chi$ that appears quadradically in the interaction, and that instability arises only when intermediate states include these loops to all orders.

We present and apply a method to infer the mass of the Milky Way (MW) by comparing the dynamics of MW satellites to those of model satellites in the EAGLE cosmological hydrodynamics simulations. A distribution function (DF) for galactic satellites is constructed from EAGLE using specific angular momentum and specific energy, which are scaled so as to be independent of host halo mass. In this 2-dimensional space, the orbital properties of satellite galaxies vary according to the host halo mass. The halo mass can be inferred by calculating the likelihood that the observed satellite population is drawn from this DF. Our method is robustly calibrated on mock EAGLE systems. We validate it by applying it to the completely independent suite of 30 AURIGA high-resolution simulations of MW-like galaxies: the method accurately recovers their true mass and associated uncertainties. We then apply it to ten classical satellites of the MW with 6D phase-space measurements, including updated proper motions from the GAIA satellite. The mass of the MW is estimated to be $M_{200}^{\textnormal{MW}}=1.17_{-0.15}^{+0.21}\times10^{12}M_{\odot}$ (68\% confidence limits). We combine our total mass estimate with recent mass estimates in the inner regions of the Galaxy to infer an inner dark matter (DM) mass fraction $M^\textnormal{DM}(<20~\rm{kpc})/M^\textnormal{DM}_{200}=0.12$ which is typical of ${\sim}10^{12}M_{\odot}$ $\Lambda$CDM haloes in hydrodynamical galaxy formation simulations. Assuming an NFW profile, this is equivalent to a halo concentration of $c_{200}^{\textnormal{MW}}=10.9^{+2.6}_{-2.0}$.

We study extensions of direct sums of symmetric operators $S=\oplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}} S_n$. In general there is no natural boundary triplet for $S^*$ even if there is one for every $S_n^*$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We consider a subclass of extensions of $S$ which can be described in terms of the boundary triplets of $S_n^*$ and investigate the self-adjointness, the semi-boundedness from below and the discreteness of the spectrum. Sufficient conditions for these properties are obtained from recent results on weighted discrete Laplacians. The results are applied to Dirac operators on metric graphs with point interactions at the vertices. In particular, we allow graphs with arbitrarily small edge length.

New, radiatively generated, LO quark (u,d,s,c,b) and gluon densities in a real, unpolarized photon are presented. We perform a global 3-parameter fit, based on LO DGLAP evolution equations, to all available data for the structure function F2^gamma(x,Q^2). We adopt a new theoretical approach called ACOT(chi), originally introduced for the proton, to deal with the heavy-quark thresholds. This defines our basic model (CJKL model), which gives a very good description of the experimental data on F2^gamma(x,Q^2), for both Q^2 and x dependences. For comparison we perform a standard fit using the Fixed Flavour-Number Scheme (FFNS_CJKL model), updated with respect to the previous fits of this type. We show the superiority of the CJKL fit over the FFNS_CJKL one and other LO fits to the F2^gamma(x,Q^2) data. The CJKL model gives also the best description of the LEP data on the Q^2 dependence of the F2^gamma, averaged over various x-regions, and the F_2,c^gamma, which were not used directly in the fit. Finally, a simple analytic parametrization of the resulting parton densities obtained with the CJKL model is given.

We present the geometric optics expansion for circularly polarized gravitational waves on a curved spacetime background, to subleading order. We call spin optics to the subleading order geometric optics expansion, which involves modifying the standard eikonal function by including a specially chosen helicity-dependent correction. We show that the techniques developed for the propagation of electromagnetic waves can also be applied to gravitational waves in the limit of spin optics. However, one needs to account for the difference in the photon and graviton helicity, which we do here.

Nowadays, more and more applications require OSGi to have some form of real-time support, which is currently very limited. The resulting closed-system solutions lack of a standard management scheme which forbids standard, system-wide policies for real-time system's deployment, adaptation, and reconfiguration. In order to tackle this problem, this paper proposes a declarative real-time component model. In this model, the distinguishing real-time contract of each component is declaratively described, and a general component real-time management interface is designed. They are used to maintain an accurate view of existing real-time components' promised contracts. A real-time component runtime service is designed to control the whole lifecycle of the components. By using global information and general control interface, it can adjust the system continue to operate without impairing the deployed components' real-time contracts in the face of run-time changes. This system allows itself to be easily extended with other constraint resolving policies to fit different context. The prototype has been tested into a simulated control system. The result shows this framework can provide good real time performance while still provides real-time component dynamicity support as well. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive solution providing explicit real-time support from design to execution in OSGi framework.

On the infinite dimensional space $E$ of continuous paths from $[0,1]$ to $\mathbb R^n$, $n \ge 3$, endowed with the Wiener measure $\mu$, we construct a surface measure defined on level sets of the $L^2$-norm of $n$-dimensional processes that are solutions to a class of stochastic gradient system-type equations, and provide an integration by parts formula involving this surface measure. We follow the approach to surface measures in Gaussian spaces proposed via techniques of Malliavin calculus by Airault and Malliavin in 1988.

Current drug discovery is expensive and time-consuming. It remains a challenging task to create a wide variety of novel compounds with desirable pharmacological properties and cheaply available to low-income people. In this work, we develop a generative network complex (GNC) to generate new drug-like molecules based on the multi-property optimization via the gradient descent in the latent space of an autoencoder. In our GNC, both multiple chemical properties and similarity scores are optimized to generate and predict drug-like molecules with desired chemical properties. To further validate the reliability of the predictions, these molecules are reevaluated and screened by independent 2D fingerprint-based predictors to come up with a few hundreds of new drug candidates. As a demonstration, we apply our GNC to generate a large number of new BACE1 inhibitors, as well as thousands of novel alternative drug candidates for eight existing market drugs, including Ceritinib, Ribociclib, Acalabrutinib, Idelalisib, Dabrafenib, Macimorelin, Enzalutamide, and Panobinostat.

The first flavor-tagged amplitude analysis of the decay D0 to the self-conjugate final state K+K-pi+pi- is presented. Data from the CLEO II.V, CLEO III, and CLEO-c detectors are used, from which around 3000 signal decays are selected. The three most significant amplitudes, which contribute to the model that best fits the data, are phirho0, K1(1270)+-K-+, and non-resonant K+K-pi+pi-. Separate amplitude analyses of D0 and D0-bar candidates indicate no CP violation among the amplitudes at the level of 5% to 30% depending on the mode. In addition, the sensitivity to the CP-violating parameter gamma/phi3 of a sample of 2000 B+ -> D0-tilde(K+K-pi+pi-)K+ decays, where D0-tilde is a D0 or D0-bar, collected at LHCb or a future flavor facility, is estimated to be (11.3 +/- 0.3) degrees using the favored model.

We present the discovery of eight young M7-L2 dwarfs in the Taurus star-forming region and the Scorpius-Centaurus OB Association, serendipitously found during a wide-field search for L/T transition dwarfs using Pan-STARRS1 (optical) and WISE (mid-infrared) photometry. We identify PSO J060.3200+25.9644 (near-infrared spectral type L1) and PSO J077.1033+24.3809 (L2) as new members of Taurus based on their VL-G gravity classifications, the consistency of their photometry and proper motions with previously known Taurus objects, and the low probability of contamination by field objects. PSO J077.1033+24.3809 is the coolest substellar member of Taurus found to date. Both Taurus objects are among the lowest mass free-floating objects ever discovered, with estimated masses $\approx$6 M$_{\rm Jup}$, and provide further evidence that isolated planetary-mass objects can form as part of normal star-formation processes. PSO J060.3200+25.9644 (a.k.a. DANCe J040116.80+255752.2) was previously identified as a likely member of the Pleiades (age $\approx125$ Myr) based on photometry and astrometry, but its VL-G gravity classification and near-infrared photometry imply a much younger age and thus point to Taurus membership. We have also discovered six M7-L1 dwarfs in outlying regions of Scorpius-Centaurus with photometry, proper motions, and low-gravity spectral signatures consistent with membership. These objects have estimated masses $\approx$15-36 M$_{\rm Jup}$. The M7 dwarf, PSO J237.1470-23.1489, shows excess mid-infrared flux implying the presence of a circumstellar disk. Finally, we present catalogs of Pan-STARRS1 proper motions for low-mass members of Taurus and Upper Scorpius with median precisions of $\approx$3 mas yr$^{-1}$, including 67 objects with no previous proper motion and 359 measurements that improve on literature values.

We study the one-dimensional nearest neighbor tight binding model of electrons with independently distributed random hopping and no on-site potential (i.e. off-diagonal disorder with particle-hole symmetry, leading to sub-lattice symmetry, for each realization). For non-singular distributions of the hopping, it is known that the model exhibits a universal, singular behavior of the density of states $\rho(E) \sim 1/|E \ln^3|E||$ and of the localization length $\xi(E) \sim |\ln|E||$, near the band center $E = 0$. (This singular behavior is also applicable to random XY and Heisenberg spin chains; it was first obtained by Dyson for a specific random harmonic oscillator chain). Simultaneously, the state at $E = 0$ shows a universal, sub-exponential decay at large distances $\sim \exp [ -\sqrt{r/r_0} ]$. In this study, we consider singular, but normalizable, distributions of hopping, whose behavior at small $t$ is of the form $\sim 1/ [t \ln^{\lambda+1}(1/t) ]$, characterized by a single, continuously tunable parameter $\lambda > 0$. We find, using a combination of analytic and numerical methods, that while the universal result applies for $\lambda > 2$, it no longer holds in the interval $0 < \lambda < 2$. In particular, we find that the form of the density of states singularity is enhanced (relative to the Dyson result) in a continuous manner depending on the non-universal parameter $\lambda$; simultaneously, the localization length shows a less divergent form at low energies, and ceases to diverge below $\lambda = 1$. For $\lambda < 2$, the fall-off of the $E = 0$ state at large distances also deviates from the universal result, and is of the form $\sim \exp [-(r/r_0)^{1/\lambda}]$, which decays faster than an exponential for $\lambda < 1$.

In the present work, by using the method of accumulation of phase shifts in the rotating frame, the attenuation function S(t) of the NMR signal from an ensemble of spin-bearing particles in a magnetic-field gradient is expressed through the particle mean square displacement in a form applicable for any kind of stationary stochastic dynamics of spins and for any times. S(t) is evaluated providing that the random motion of particles can be modeled by the generalized Langevin equation (GLE) with a colored random force driving the particles. The memory integral in this equation is the convolution of the particle velocity or its acceleration with a memory kernel related to the random force by the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. We consider three popular models of the BM with memory: the model of viscoelastic (Maxwell) fluids with the memory exponentially decaying in time, the fractional BM model, and the model of the hydrodynamic BM. In all the cases the solutions of the GLEs are obtained in an exceedingly simple way. The corresponding attenuation functions are then found for the free-induction NMR signal and the pulsed and steady-gradient spin-echo experiments. The results for the free-particle fractional BM compare favorably with experiments acquired in human neuronal tissues and with the observed subdiffusion dynamics in proteins.

In this paper, a theoretical approach, comprising the non-equilibrium Green's function method for electronic transport and Landau-Khalatnikov equation for electric polarization dynamics, is presented to describe polarization-dependent tunneling electroresistance (TER) in ferroelectric tunnel junctions. Using appropriate contact, interface, and ferroelectric parameters, measured current-voltage characteristic curves in both inorganic (Co/BaTiO$_{3}$/La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$) and organic (Au/PVDF/W) ferroelectric tunnel junctions can be well described by the proposed approach. Furthermore, under this theoretical framework, the controversy of opposite TER signs observed experimentally by different groups in Co/BaTiO$_{3}$/La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$ systems is addressed by considering the interface termination effects using the effective contact ratio, defined through the effective screening length and dielectric response at the metal/ferroelectric interfaces. Finally, our approach is extended to investigate the role of a CoO$_{x}$ buffer layer at the Co/BaTiO$_{3}$ interface in a ferroelectric tunnel memristor. It is shown that, to have a significant memristor behavior, not only the interface oxygen vacancies but also the CoO$_{x}$ layer thickness may vary with the applied bias.

For a group $G$ and $R=\mathbb Z,\mathbb Z/p,\mathbb Q$ we denote by $\hat G_R$ the $R$-completion of $G.$ We study the map $H_n(G,K)\to H_n(\hat G_R,K),$ where $(R,K)=(\mathbb Z,\mathbb Z/p),(\mathbb Z/p,\mathbb Z/p),(\mathbb Q,\mathbb Q).$ We prove that $H_2(G,K)\to H_2(\hat G_R,K)$ is an epimorphism for a finitely generated solvable group $G$ of finite Pr\"ufer rank. In particular, Bousfield's $HK$-localisation of such groups coincides with the $K$-completion for $K=\mathbb Z/p,\mathbb Q.$ Moreover, we prove that $H_n(G,K)\to H_n(\hat G_R,K)$ is an epimorphism for any $n$ if $G$ is a finitely presented group of the form $G=M\rtimes C,$ where $C$ is the infinite cyclic group and $M$ is a $C$-module.

We address the use of entanglement to improve the precision of generalized quantum interferometry, i.e. of binary measurements aimed to determine whether or not a perturbation has been applied by a given device. For the most relevant operations in quantum optics, we evaluate the optimal detection strategy and the ultimate bounds to the minimum detectable perturbation. Our results indicate that entanglement-assisted strategies improve the discrimination in comparison with conventional schemes. A concrete setup to approach performances of the optimal strategies is also suggested.

The past decade has seen considerable progress in quantum hardware in terms of the speed, number of qubits and quantum volume which is defined as the maximum size of a quantum circuit that can be effectively implemented on a near-term quantum device. Consequently, there has also been a rise in the number of works based on the applications of Quantum Machine Learning (QML) on real hardware to attain quantum advantage over their classical counterparts. In this survey, our primary focus is on selected supervised and unsupervised learning applications implemented on quantum hardware, specifically targeting real-world scenarios. Our survey explores and highlights the current limitations of QML implementations on quantum hardware. We delve into various techniques to overcome these limitations, such as encoding techniques, ansatz structure, error mitigation, and gradient methods. Additionally, we assess the performance of these QML implementations in comparison to their classical counterparts. Finally, we conclude our survey with a discussion on the existing bottlenecks associated with applying QML on real quantum devices and propose potential solutions for overcoming these challenges in the future.

Consideration of the entropy production in the creation of the CMB leads to a simple model of the evolution of the universe during this period which suggests a connection between the small observed acceleration term and the early inflation of a closed universe. From this we find an unexpected relationship between the Omega's of cosmology and calculate the total volume of the universe.

The concept can be used for conventional image inputs but also event based data. Although inspired by the architecture of brain that inegrates information over increasingly larger spatial but also temporal scales it can operate on conventional hardware using existing architectures. We introduce preliminary results to show the efficiency of the method. More in-depth results and analysis will be reported soon!

We consider the problem of optimizing the expected logarithmic utility of the value of a portfolio in a binomial model with proportional transaction costs with a long time horizon. By duality methods, we can find expressions for the boundaries of the no-trade-region and the asymptotic optimal growth rate, which can be made explicit for small transaction costs. Here we find that, contrary to the classical results in continuous time, the size of the no-trade-region as well as the asymptotic growth rate depend analytically on the level of transaction costs, implying a linear first order effect of perturbations of (small) transaction costs. We obtain the asymptotic expansion by an almost explicit construction of the shadow price process.

Random forests are powerful non-parametric regression method but are severely limited in their usage in the presence of randomly censored observations, and naively applied can exhibit poor predictive performance due to the incurred biases. Based on a local adaptive representation of random forests, we develop its regression adjustment for randomly censored regression quantile models. Regression adjustment is based on new estimating equations that adapt to censoring and lead to quantile score whenever the data do not exhibit censoring. The proposed procedure named censored quantile regression forest, allows us to estimate quantiles of time-to-event without any parametric modeling assumption. We establish its consistency under mild model specifications. Numerical studies showcase a clear advantage of the proposed procedure.

Contrastive Divergence (CD) and Persistent Contrastive Divergence (PCD) are popular methods for training the weights of Restricted Boltzmann Machines. However, both methods use an approximate method for sampling from the model distribution. As a side effect, these approximations yield significantly different biases and variances for stochastic gradient estimates of individual data points. It is well known that CD yields a biased gradient estimate. In this paper we however show empirically that CD has a lower stochastic gradient estimate variance than exact sampling, while the mean of subsequent PCD estimates has a higher variance than exact sampling. The results give one explanation to the finding that CD can be used with smaller minibatches or higher learning rates than PCD.

Deformation-induced lateral migration of a bubble slowly rising near a vertical plane wall in a stagnant liquid is numerically and theoretically investigated. In particular, our focus is set on a situation with a small clearance $c$ between the bubble interface and the wall. Motivated by the fact that experimentally measured migration velocity (Takemura et al. (2002, J. Fluid Mech. {\bf 461}, 277)) is higher than the velocity estimated by the available analytical solution (Magnaudet et al. (2003, J. Fluid Mech. {\bf 476}, 115)) using the Fax\'{e}n mirror image technique for $\kappa(=a/(a+c))\ll 1$ (here $a$ is the bubble radius), when the clearance parameter $\epsilon(=c/a)$ is comparable to or smaller than unit, the numerical analysis based on the boundary-fitted finite-difference approach by solving the Stokes equation is performed to complement the experiment. To improve the understandings of a role of the squeezing flow within the bubble-wall gap, the theoretical analysis based on a soft-lubrication approach (Skotheim & Mahadevan (2004, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 92}, 245509)) is also performed. The present analyses demonstrate the migration velocity scales $\propto{\rm Ca}\ \epsilon^{-1}V_{B1}$ (here, $V_{B1}$ and ${\rm Ca}$ denote the rising velocity and the capillary number, respectively) in the limit of $\epsilon\to 0$.

We study a possibility to explain neutrino masses and mixings based on supersymmetry. If we introduce a flavor diagonal but generation dependent extra U(1) gauge interaction at a TeV region, we can obtain masses and mixings of neutrinos required for the explanation of both solar and atmospheric neutrinos. In this model, differently from the usual bilinear R-parity violating scenario, the neutrino mass degeneracy can be resolved at a tree level by the neutrino-gaugino mixing caused by an R-parity violation. The model is straightforwardly extended to include the quark sector by introducing an anomalous U(1) which can be used for the Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism.

I discuss the possibility of using a massive vector field to generate the density perturbation in the Universe. I find that a scale-invariant superhorizon spectrum of vector field perturbations is possible to generate during inflation. The associated curvature perturbation is imprinted onto the Universe following the curvaton scenario. The mechanism does not generate a long-range anisotropy because an oscillating massive vector field behaves as a pressureless isotropic fluid.

We propose an Exclusive Topic Modeling (ETM) for unsupervised text classification, which is able to 1) identify the field-specific keywords though less frequently appeared and 2) deliver well-structured topics with exclusive words. In particular, a weighted Lasso penalty is imposed to reduce the dominance of the frequently appearing yet less relevant words automatically, and a pairwise Kullback-Leibler divergence penalty is used to implement topics separation. Simulation studies demonstrate that the ETM detects the field-specific keywords, while LDA fails. When applying to the benchmark NIPS dataset, the topic coherence score on average improves by 22% and 10% for the model with weighted Lasso penalty and pairwise Kullback-Leibler divergence penalty, respectively.

We show that a quantum system with nonlocal interaction can have bound states of unusual type (isolated states (IS)). IS is a bound state that do not generate a $S$-matrix pole. IS can have positive as well as negative energy and can be treated as a generalization of bound states embedded in continuum on the case of discrete spectrum states. Formation of IS in the spectrum of quantum system is studied using a simple rank--2 separable potential with harmonic oscillator formfactors. Some physical applications are discussed, in particular, we propose separable $NN$ potential that describes not only most important two-nucleon data (deuteron binding energy and s-wave triplet and singlet scattering phases) but also the trinucleon binding energy without making use of three-body forces.

In this talk we would like to present recent calculations of the cross sections for the ultrahigh energy neutrinos interacting with nucleons. We briefly present the framework of unifed BFKL/DGLAP equations which resums all the leading log(1/x) effects as well as the subleading terms. The few free parameters which specify the input parton distributions are determined by fitting to HERA deep inelastic data. We then use these parton distributions to calculate the cross section for the neutrino-nucleon interactions at very high energies, up to 10^12 GeV. We do also investigate the attenuation of neutrinos when traversing through the Earth. We use the transport equation which we solve for different fluxes of high energy neutrinos (Active Galactic Nucleai, Gamma Ray Bursts, and top-down models). We study the effects of the regeneration of the neutrino flux via neutral current interaction.

The main result of this paper states that in a rooted product of a path with rooted graphs which are disposed in a somewhat mirror-symmetric fashion, there are distinct eigenvalues supported in the end vertices of the path which are too close to each other: their difference is smaller than the square root of two in the even distance case, and smaller than one in the odd distance case. As a first application, we show that these end vertices cannot be involved in a quantum walk phenomenon known as perfect state transfer, significantly strengthening a recent result by two of the authors along with Godsil and van Bommel. For a second application, we show that there is no balanced integral tree of odd diameter bigger than three, answering a question raised by H\'{i}c and Nedela in 1998. Our main technique involves manipulating ratios of characteristic polynomials of graphs and subgraphs into continued fractions, and exploring in detail their analytic properties. We will also make use of a result due to P\'{o}lya and Szeg\"{o} about functions that preserve the Lebesgue measure, which as far as we know is a novel application to combinatorics. In the end, we connect our machinery to a recently introduced algorithm to locate eigenvalues of trees, and with our approach we show that any graph which contains two vertices separated by a unique path that is the subdivision of a bridge with at least six inner vertices cannot be integral. As a minor corollary this implies that most trees are not integral, but we believe no one thought otherwise.

The COVID-19 outbreak has posed significant threats to international health and the economy. In the absence of treatment for this virus, public health officials asked the public to practice social distancing to reduce the number of physical contacts. However, quantifying social distancing is a challenging task and current methods are based on human movements. We propose a time and cost-effective approach to measure how people practice social distancing. This study proposes a new method based on utilizing the frequency of hashtags supporting and encouraging social distancing for measuring social distancing. We have identified 18 related hashtags and tracked their trends between Jan and May 2020. Our evaluation results show that there is a strong correlation (P<0.05) between our findings and the Google social distancing report.

Quantum metamaterials generalize the concept of metamaterials (artificial optical media) to the case when their optical properties are determined by the interplay of quantum effects in the constituent 'artificial atoms' with the electromagnetic field modes in the system. The theoretical investigation of these structures demonstrated that a number of new effects (such as quantum birefringence, strongly nonclassical states of light, etc) are to be expected, prompting the efforts on their fabrication and experimental investigation. Here we provide a summary of the principal features of quantum metamaterials and review the current state of research in this quickly developing field, which bridges quantum optics, quantum condensed matter theory and quantum information processing.

SpotEM: Efficient Video Search for Episodic Memory

The goal in episodic memory (EM) is to search a long egocentric video to answer a natural language query (e.g., "where did I leave my purse?"). Existing EM methods exhaustively extract expensive fixed-length clip features to look everywhere in the video for the answer, which is infeasible for long wearable-camera videos that span hours or even days. We propose SpotEM, an approach to achieve efficiency for a given EM method while maintaining good accuracy. SpotEM consists of three key ideas: 1) a novel clip selector that learns to identify promising video regions to search conditioned on the language query; 2) a set of low-cost semantic indexing features that capture the context of rooms, objects, and interactions that suggest where to look; and 3) distillation losses that address the optimization issues arising from end-to-end joint training of the clip selector and EM model. Our experiments on 200+ hours of video from the Ego4D EM Natural Language Queries benchmark and three different EM models demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach: computing only 10% - 25% of the clip features, we preserve 84% - 97% of the original EM model's accuracy.

We report the first detection, with Chandra, of X-ray emission from the jet of the powerful narrow-line radio galaxy 3C 346. X-rays are detected from the bright radio and optical knot at which the jet apparently bends by about 70 degrees. The Chandra observation also reveals a bright galaxy-scale atmosphere within the previously-known cluster, and provides a good X-ray spectrum for the bright core of 3C 346. The X-ray emission from the knot is synchrotron radiation, as seen in lower-power sources. In common with these sources, there is evidence of morphological differences between the radio/optical and X-ray structures, and the spectrum is inconsistent with a one-component continuous-injection model. We suggest that the X-ray-bright knot is associated with a strong oblique shock in a moderately relativistic, light jet, at about 20 degrees to the line of sight, and that this shock is caused by the jet interacting with the wake in the cluster medium behind 3C 346's companion galaxy. The general jet curvature can result from pressure gradients in the cluster atmosphere.

The evaluation of BPS Wilson loops in N=6, D=3 Chern-Simons matter theory is reduced to ordinary matrix integrals via localization technique. It is easy to check that the vacuum expectation value of 1/2 BPS Wilson loops at leading order in planar limit agrees with the regularized classical string action, via AdS/CFT. Then the subleading terms in principle can be calculated by treating the string theory semi-classically. In this article we calculate the one-loop determinant for fluctuation modes of holographic Wilson loop in the dual geometry AdS4xCP3. The fermionic normal mode frequencies are expressed in terms of the hypergeometric function, and we compute the one-loop effective action numerically. The discrepancy with localization formula is due to the zero mode normalization constant, which is yet to be determined.

Bounds on Species Scale and the Distance Conjecture

The species scale $\Lambda_s\leq M_{pl}$ serves as a UV cutoff in the gravitational sector of an EFT and can depend on the moduli of the theory as the spectrum of the theory varies. We argue that the dependence of the species scale $\Lambda_s (\phi)$ on massless (or light) modes $\phi^i$ satisfies $M_{pl}^{d-2} |\Lambda_s'/\Lambda_s|^2< \mathcal{O}(1)$. This bound is true at all points in moduli space including also its interior. The argument is based on the idea that the short distance contribution of massless modes to gravitational terms in the EFT cannot dramatically affect the black hole entropy. Based on string theory arguments we expect the $\mathcal{O}(1)$ constant in this bound to be equal to ${1\over {d-2}}$ as we approach the boundary of the moduli space. However, we find that the slope of the species scale can approach its asymptotic value from above as we go from interior points to the boundaries, thereby implying that the constant in the bound must be larger than ${1\over {d-2}}$. The bound on the variation of the species scale also implies that the mass of towers of light modes cannot go to zero faster than exponential in field distance in accordance with the Distance Conjecture.

The problem of software fault localization may be viewed as an approach for finding hidden faults or bugs in the existing program codes which are syntactically correct and give fault free output for some input instances but fail for all other input instances. Some of the reasons include logical errors, wrong interpretation of specification, coding errors. Finding such faults is not possible sometimes with the help of compilers. This is where the necessity and significance of software fault localization stems out. The main contribution for this work is to first introduce the block hit-miss function which relates block vectors of execution sequences of software code over sample runs performed and the decision vector which denotes fault or error free output. The similarity measure is applied to the block vector and decision vectors as input and the pair with maximum similarity is considered as faulty block.

Data augmentation has been actively studied for robust neural networks. Most of the recent data augmentation methods focus on augmenting datasets during the training phase. At the testing phase, simple transformations are still widely used for test-time augmentation. This paper proposes a novel instance-level test-time augmentation that efficiently selects suitable transformations for a test input. Our proposed method involves an auxiliary module to predict the loss of each possible transformation given the input. Then, the transformations having lower predicted losses are applied to the input. The network obtains the results by averaging the prediction results of augmented inputs. Experimental results on several image classification benchmarks show that the proposed instance-aware test-time augmentation improves the model's robustness against various corruptions.

Scalable Nonlinear AUC Maximization Methods

The area under the ROC curve (AUC) is a measure of interest in various machine learning and data mining applications. It has been widely used to evaluate classification performance on heavily imbalanced data. The kernelized AUC maximization machines have established a superior generalization ability compared to linear AUC machines because of their capability in modeling the complex nonlinear structure underlying most real-world data. However, the high training complexity renders the kernelized AUC machines infeasible for large-scale data. In this paper, we present two nonlinear AUC maximization algorithms that optimize pairwise linear classifiers over a finite-dimensional feature space constructed via the k-means Nystr\"{o}m method. Our first algorithm maximize the AUC metric by optimizing a pairwise squared hinge loss function using the truncated Newton method. However, the second-order batch AUC maximization method becomes expensive to optimize for extremely massive datasets. This motivate us to develop a first-order stochastic AUC maximization algorithm that incorporates a scheduled regularization update and scheduled averaging techniques to accelerate the convergence of the classifier. Experiments on several benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed AUC classifiers are more efficient than kernelized AUC machines while they are able to surpass or at least match the AUC performance of the kernelized AUC machines. The experiments also show that the proposed stochastic AUC classifier outperforms the state-of-the-art online AUC maximization methods in terms of AUC classification accuracy.

It is commonly believed that the hidden layers of deep neural networks (DNNs) attempt to extract informative features for learning tasks. In this paper, we formalize this intuition by showing that the features extracted by DNN coincide with the result of an optimization problem, which we call the `universal feature selection' problem, in a local analysis regime. We interpret the weights training in DNN as the projection of feature functions between feature spaces, specified by the network structure. Our formulation has direct operational meaning in terms of the performance for inference tasks, and gives interpretations to the internal computation results of DNNs. Results of numerical experiments are provided to support the analysis.

Quantum matter with exotic topological order has potential applications in quantum computation. However, in present experiments, the manipulations on topological states are still challenging. We here propose an architecture for optical control of topological matter. We consider a topological superconducting qubit array with Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) Hamiltonian which couples to a microwave cavity. Based on parity properties of the topological qubit array, we propose an optical spectroscopy method to observe topological phase transition, i.e., edge-to-bulk transition. This new method can be achieved by designing cavity-qubit couplings. A main purpose of this work is to understand how topological phase transition affects light-matter interaction. We find that topological bandgap plays an essential role on this issue. In topological phase, the resonant vacuum Rabi splitting of degenerate edge states coupling to the cavity field is protected from those of bulk states by the bandgap. In dispersive regime, the cavity induced coupling between edge states is dominant over couplings between edge and bulk states, due to the topological bandgap. As a result, quantum interference between topological edge states occures and enables single-photon transport through boundaries of the topological qubit array. Our work may pave a way for topological quantum state engineering.

By inspiring ourselves in Drinfeld's DG quotient, we develop Postnikov towers, k-invariants and an obstruction theory for dg categories. As an application, we obtain the following `rigidification' theorem: let A be a homologically connective dg category and F:B -> H0(A) a dg functor to its homotopy category. If the family of obstruction classes vanishes, then a lift for F exists.

Parliamentary recordings provide a rich source of data for studying how politicians use speech to convey their messages and influence their audience. This provides a unique context for studying how politicians use speech, especially prosody, to achieve their goals. Here we analyzed a corpus of parliamentary speeches in the Finnish parliament between the years 2008-2020 and highlight methodological considerations related to the robustness of signal based features with respect to varying recording conditions and corpus design. We also present results of long term changes pertaining to speakers' status with respect to their party being in government or in opposition. Looking at large scale averages of fundamental frequency - a robust prosodic feature - we found systematic changes in speech prosody with respect opposition status and the election term. Reflecting a different level of urgency, members of the parliament have higher f0 at the beginning of the term or when they are in opposition.
