We resolve a conjecture of Albert and Bousquet-Melou enumerating quarter-plane walks with fixed horizontal and vertical projections according to their upper-right-corner count modulo 2. In doing this, we introduce a signed upper-right-corner count statistic. We find its distribution over planar walks with any choice of fixed horizontal and vertical projections. Additionally, we prove that the polynomial counting loops with a fixed horizontal and vertical projection according to the absolute value of their signed upper-right-corner count is $(x+1)$-positive. Finally, we conjecture an equivalence between $(x+1)$-positivity of the generating function for upper-right-corner count and signed upper-right-corner count.

Pre-trained language models (PLMs) have become a prevalent technique in deep learning for code, utilizing a two-stage pre-training and fine-tuning procedure to acquire general knowledge about code and specialize in a variety of downstream tasks. However, the dynamic nature of software codebases poses a challenge to the effectiveness and robustness of PLMs. In particular, world-realistic scenarios potentially lead to significant differences between the distribution of the pre-training and test data, i.e., distribution shift, resulting in a degradation of the PLM's performance on downstream tasks. In this paper, we stress the need for adapting PLMs of code to software data whose distribution changes over time, a crucial problem that has been overlooked in previous works. The motivation of this work is to consider the PLM in a non-stationary environment, where fine-tuning data evolves over time according to a software evolution scenario. Specifically, we design a scenario where the model needs to learn from a stream of programs containing new, unseen APIs over time. We study two widely used PLM architectures, i.e., a GPT2 decoder and a RoBERTa encoder, on two downstream tasks, API call and API usage prediction. We demonstrate that the most commonly used fine-tuning technique from prior work is not robust enough to handle the dynamic nature of APIs, leading to the loss of previously acquired knowledge i.e., catastrophic forgetting. To address these issues, we implement five continual learning approaches, including replay-based and regularization-based methods. Our findings demonstrate that utilizing these straightforward methods effectively mitigates catastrophic forgetting in PLMs across both downstream tasks while achieving comparable or superior performance.

Selective Particle Attention: Visual Feature-Based Attention in Deep Reinforcement Learning

The human brain uses selective attention to filter perceptual input so that only the components that are useful for behaviour are processed using its limited computational resources. We focus on one particular form of visual attention known as feature-based attention, which is concerned with identifying features of the visual input that are important for the current task regardless of their spatial location. Visual feature-based attention has been proposed to improve the efficiency of Reinforcement Learning (RL) by reducing the dimensionality of state representations and guiding learning towards relevant features. Despite achieving human level performance in complex perceptual-motor tasks, Deep RL algorithms have been consistently criticised for their poor efficiency and lack of flexibility. Visual feature-based attention therefore represents one option for addressing these criticisms. Nevertheless, it is still an open question how the brain is able to learn which features to attend to during RL. To help answer this question we propose a novel algorithm, termed Selective Particle Attention (SPA), which imbues a Deep RL agent with the ability to perform selective feature-based attention. SPA learns which combinations of features to attend to based on their bottom-up saliency and how accurately they predict future reward. We evaluate SPA on a multiple choice task and a 2D video game that both involve raw pixel input and dynamic changes to the task structure. We show various benefits of SPA over approaches that naively attend to either all or random subsets of features. Our results demonstrate (1) how visual feature-based attention in Deep RL models can improve their learning efficiency and ability to deal with sudden changes in task structure and (2) that particle filters may represent a viable computational account of how visual feature-based attention occurs in the brain.

We address the question of whether the formation of high-mass stars is similar to or differs from that of solar-mass stars through new molecular line observations and modeling of the accretion flow around the massive protostar IRAS20126+4104. We combine new observations of NH3(1,1) and (2,2) made at the Very Large Array, new observations of CHCN(13-12) made at the Submillimeter Array, previous VLA observations of NH(3,3), NH(4,4), and previous Plateau de Bure observations of C34S(2-1), C34S(5-4), and CHCN(12-11) to obtain a data set of molecular lines covering 15 to 419 K in excitation energy. We compare these observations against simulated molecular line spectra predicted from a model for high-mass star formation based on a scaled-up version of the standard disk-envelope paradigm developed for accretion flows around low-mass stars. We find that in accord with the standard paradigm, the observations require both a warm, dense, rapidly-rotating disk and a cold, diffuse infalling envelope. This study suggests that accretion processes around 10 M stars are similar to those of solar mass stars.

Motivated by recent discussions of entanglement in the context of high energy scattering, we consider the relation between the entanglement entropy of a highly excited state of a quantum system and the classical entanglement entropy of the corresponding classical system. We show on the example of two weakly coupled harmonic oscillators, that the two entropies are equal. Quantum mechanically, the reduced density matrix which yields this entropy is close to the maximally entangled state. We thus observe that the nature of entanglement in this type of state is purely classical.

We discuss the ground-breaking science that will be possible with a wide area survey, using the MeerKAT telescope, known as MeerKLASS (MeerKAT Large Area Synoptic Survey). The current specifications of MeerKAT make it a great fit for science applications that require large survey speeds but not necessarily high angular resolutions. In particular, for cosmology, a large survey over $\sim 4,000 \, {\rm deg}^2$ for $\sim 4,000$ hours will potentially provide the first ever measurements of the baryon acoustic oscillations using the 21cm intensity mapping technique, with enough accuracy to impose constraints on the nature of dark energy. The combination with multi-wavelength data will give unique additional information, such as exquisite constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity using the multi-tracer technique, as well as a better handle on foregrounds and systematics. Such a wide survey with MeerKAT is also a great match for HI galaxy studies, providing unrivalled statistics in the pre-SKA era for galaxies resolved in the HI emission line beyond local structures at z > 0.01. It will also produce a large continuum galaxy sample down to a depth of about 5\,$\mu$Jy in L-band, which is quite unique over such large areas and will allow studies of the large-scale structure of the Universe out to high redshifts, complementing the galaxy HI survey to form a transformational multi-wavelength approach to study galaxy dynamics and evolution. Finally, the same survey will supply unique information for a range of other science applications, including a large statistical investigation of galaxy clusters as well as produce a rotation measure map across a huge swathe of the sky. The MeerKLASS survey will be a crucial step on the road to using SKA1-MID for cosmological applications and other commensal surveys, as described in the top priority SKA key science projects (abridged).

We consider the exact superpotential of N=1 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SO(N) and arbitrary tree-level polynomial superpotential of one adjoint Higgs field. A field-theoretic derivation of the glueball superpotential is given, based on factorization of the N=2 Seiberg-Witten curve. Following the conjecture of Dijkgraaf and Vafa, the result is matched with the corresponding SO(N) matrix model prediction. The verification involves an explicit solution of the first non-trivial loop equation, relating the spherical free energy to that of the non-orientable surfaces with topology $RP^2$.

Guided waves modes in a slab waveguide formed from the isotropic dielectric layer embedded by hyperbolic materials are investigated. Optical axis is normal to the slab plane. The dispersion relations for TE and TM waves are found. The differences between hyperbolic waveguide and conventional one are demonstrated. In particular, for each TM mode of hyperbolic waveguide there are two cut-off frequencies and the number of modes is limited. For the TE and TM modes Poynting vector component along the wave's propagation axis could be equal to zero.

We present long-slit spectroscopy and imaging data obtained with FORS2 on the Very Large Telescope of 13 optically selected type 2 quasars at z~0.3-0.6 from the original sample of Zakamska et al. (2003). The sample is likely to be affected by different selection biases. We investigate the evidence for: a) mergers/interactions b) star formation activity in the neighborhood of the quasars and c) extended emission line regions and their nature. Evidence for mergers/interactions is found in 5/13 objects. This is a lower limit for our sample, given the shallowness of most of our continuum images. Although AGN photoionization cannot be totally discarded, line ratios consistent with stellar photoionization are found in general in companion galaxies/knots/nuclei near these same objects. On the contrary, the gas in the neighborhood of the quasar nucleus shows line ratios inconsistent with HII galaxies and typical of AGN photoionized nebulae. A natural scenario to explain the observations is that star formation is ongoing in companion galaxies/knots/nuclei, possibly triggered by the interactions. These systems are, therefore, composite in their emission line properties showing a combination of AGN and star formation features. Extended emission line regions (EELRs) have been found in 7/13 objects, although this fraction might be higher if a complete spatial coverage around the quasars was performed. The sizes vary between few and up to 64 kpc. In general, the EELRs apparently consist of an extended nebula associated with the quasar. In at least one case the EELR is associated with ionized tidal features.

Spatial sensitivity analysis for urban land use prediction with physics-constrained conditional generative adversarial networks

Accurately forecasting urban development and its environmental and climate impacts critically depends on realistic models of the spatial structure of the built environment, and of its dependence on key factors such as population and economic development. Scenario simulation and sensitivity analysis, i.e., predicting how changes in underlying factors at a given location affect urbanization outcomes at other locations, is currently not achievable at a large scale with traditional urban growth models, which are either too simplistic, or depend on detailed locally-collected socioeconomic data that is not available in most places. Here we develop a framework to estimate, purely from globally-available remote-sensing data and without parametric assumptions, the spatial sensitivity of the (\textit{static}) rate of change of urban sprawl to key macroeconomic development indicators. We formulate this spatial regression problem as an image-to-image translation task using conditional generative adversarial networks (GANs), where the gradients necessary for comparative static analysis are provided by the backpropagation algorithm used to train the model. This framework allows to naturally incorporate physical constraints, e.g., the inability to build over water bodies. To validate the spatial structure of model-generated built environment distributions, we use spatial statistics commonly used in urban form analysis. We apply our method to a novel dataset comprising of layers on the built environment, nightlighs measurements (a proxy for economic development and energy use), and population density for the world's most populous 15,000 cities.

We consider the Lindblad equation for a collection of multilevel systems coupled to independent environments. The equation is symmetric under the exchange of the labels associated with each system and thus the open-system dynamics takes place in the permutation-symmetric subspace of the operator space. The dimension of this space grows polynomially with the number of systems. We construct a basis of this space and a set of superoperators whose action on this basis is easily specified. For a given number of levels, $M$, these superoperators are written in terms of a bosonic realization of the generators of the Lie algebra $\sln{M^2}$. In some cases, these results enable finding an analytic solution of the master equation using known Lie-algebraic methods. To demonstrate this, we obtain an analytic expression for the state operator of a collection of three-level atoms coupled to independent radiation baths. When analytic solutions are difficult to find, the basis and the superoperators can be used to considerably reduce the computational resources required for simulations.

Turbulent and internal wave motions are important for the exchange of momentum, heat and suspended matter in the deep-sea which is generally stably stratified in density. Turbulence-generation models involve shear of vertical current differences that deforms the stratified waters, and convection that is drive by (unstable) buoyancy. Shear-generation is found more general in the well-stratified ocean-interior, while convection is known to occur near the sea-surface, e.g. via nighttime cooling. Far below the surface, the Western-Mediterranean Sea is very weakly stratified and offers opportunity to observationally study deep-sea convection. An opportunistic small set of high-resolution temperature sensors demonstrates not only classic internal-wave-induced turbulence, but also convection attributed to geothermal heating and spectral properties that relate to various chaos-theory models such as 1/sigma pink noise (sigma denoting frequency), mainly found lying at (0.01 m above) the seafloor, and 1/sigma^2 Brownian noise, mainly found on a moored line at about 100 m above the seafloor. Near-inertial temperature variations are observed to occur down to the seafloor thereby disturbing the local convective turbulence regime to shear-dominated one temporarily. The integral turbulence time-scale is generally smaller (with dominant higher frequency motions) at the seafloor than about 100 m above it.

The parametrized black hole quasinormal ringdown formalism is useful to compute quasinormal mode (QNM) frequencies if a master equation for the gravitational perturbation around a black hole has a small deviation from the Regge-Wheeler or Zerilli equation. In this formalism, the deviation of QNM frequency from general relativity can be calculated by small deviation parameters and model independent coefficients. In this paper, we derive recursion relations for the model independent coefficients. Using these relations, the higher order coefficients are written only by the lower order coefficients. Thus, we only need the lower order coefficients when we numerically compute the model independent coefficients.

We develop a theory of a pseudogap state appearing near the superconductor-insulator transition in strongly disordered metals with attractive interaction. We show that such an interaction combined with the fractal nature of the single particle wave functions near the mobility edge leads to an anomalously large single particle gap in the superconducting state near SI transition that persists and even increases in the insulating state long after the superconductivity is destroyed. We give analytic expressions for the value of the pseudogap in terms of the inverse participation ratio of the corresponding localization problem.

It is shown that the Constant Temperature (CT) model of nuclear level density is a direct consequence of a symmetrized Poisson distribution of nuclear level spacings. The standard CT model describing the total level density is shown to be fatally flawed due to discontinuities at the Yrast energies, the onset of new $J^{\pi}$ sequences, that disrupt the exponential formula and cause the back shift parameter to become nonphysically negative. A new CT-JPI level density model is proposed with a constant temperature and separate back shift parameters for each $J^{\pi}$ sequence. The CT-JPI model is also constrained to reproduce the spin distribution predicted by Ericson's spin distribution function at the neutron separation energy. A fitting procedure is described for determining the temperature $T$, back shifts $E_0(J^{\pi})$, and spin cutoff parameters $\sigma_c$ from nuclear structure and resonance data. The CT-JPI model is demonstrated to successfully predict the level densities for a wide range of spins and parities for 46 nuclear with Z=7-92. In variance with earlier predictions the spin cut-off parameters show no mass dependence and instead substantial variation at all mass regions.

In this paper, we consider the Graphical Lasso (GL), a popular optimization problem for learning the sparse representations of high-dimensional datasets, which is well-known to be computationally expensive for large-scale problems. Recently, we have shown that the sparsity pattern of the optimal solution of GL is equivalent to the one obtained from simply thresholding the sample covariance matrix, for sparse graphs under different conditions. We have also derived a closed-form solution that is optimal when the thresholded sample covariance matrix has an acyclic structure. As a major generalization of the previous result, in this paper we derive a closed-form solution for the GL for graphs with chordal structures. We show that the GL and thresholding equivalence conditions can significantly be simplified and are expected to hold for high-dimensional problems if the thresholded sample covariance matrix has a chordal structure. We then show that the GL and thresholding equivalence is enough to reduce the GL to a maximum determinant matrix completion problem and drive a recursive closed-form solution for the GL when the thresholded sample covariance matrix has a chordal structure. For large-scale problems with up to 450 million variables, the proposed method can solve the GL problem in less than 2 minutes, while the state-of-the-art methods converge in more than 2 hours.

We propose a method for deriving equivalent one-dimensional models for slender non-linear structures. The approach is designed to be broadly applicable, and can handle in principle finite strains, finite rotations, arbitrary cross-sections shapes, inhomogeneous elastic properties across the cross-section, arbitrary elastic constitutive laws (possibly with low symmetry) and arbitrary distributions of pre-strain, including finite pre-strain. It is based on a kinematic parameterization of the actual configuration that makes use of a center-line, a frame of directors, and local degrees of freedom capturing the detailed shape of cross-sections. A relaxation method is applied that holds the framed center-line fixed while relaxing the local degrees of freedom; it is asymptotically valid when the macroscopic strain and the properties of the rod vary slowly in the longitudinal direction. The outcome is a one-dimensional strain energy depending on the apparent stretching, bending and twisting strain of the framed center-line; the dependence on the strain gradients is also captured, yielding an equivalent rod model that is asymptotically exact to higher order. The method is presented in a fully non-linear setting and it is verified against linear and weakly non-linear solutions available from the literature.

In this paper, we show the equivalency between the existence of fast neutrino flavor instability and that of neutrino flavor lepton number (NFLN) crossings, which indicates that an NFLN angular distribution takes both signs. The veracity of this proposition has been uncertain and sometimes controversial despite its indispensability in the flavor evolutions of dense neutrinos. This study clarifies that the occurrence of an NFLN crossing is both necessary and sufficient for fast instability.

We study a specific family of symmetric norms on the algebra $\mathcal B(\mathcal H)$ of operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. With respect to each symmetric norm in this family the identity operator fails to attain its norm. Using this, we generalize one of the main results from \cite{SP}; the hypothesis is relaxed, and consequently, the family of symmetric norms for which the result holds is extended. We introduce and study the concepts of "universally symmetric norming operators" and "universally absolutely symmetric norming operators" on a separable Hilbert space. These refer to the operators that are, respectively, norming and absolutely norming, with respect to every symmetric norm on $\mathcal B(\mathcal H)$. We establish a characterization theorem for such operators and prove that these classes are identical, and that they coincide with the class of compact operators. In particular, we provide an alternative characterization of compact operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space.

Using the AdS/CFT correspondence we study UV behavior of Wilson loops in various noncommutative gauge theories. We get an area law in most cases and try to identify its origin. In D3 case, we may identify the the origin as the D1 dominance over the D3: as we go to the boundary of the AdS space, the effect of the flux of the D3 charge is highly suppressed, while the flux due to the D1 charge is enhenced. So near the boundary the theory is more like a theory on D1 brane than that on D3 brane. This phenomena is closely related to the dimensional reduction due to the strong magnetic field in the charged particle in the magnetic field. The linear potential is not due to the confinement by IR effect but is the analogue of Coulomb's potential in 1+1 dimension.

The Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) series of iridates (Srn+1IrnO3n+1) have been the subject of much recent attention due to the anticipation of emergent physics arising from the cooperative action of spin-orbit (SO) driven band splitting and Coulomb interactions[1-3]. However an ongoing debate over the role of correlations in the formation of the charge gap and a lack of understanding of the effects of doping on the low energy electronic structure have hindered experimental progress in realizing many of the predicted states[4-8] including possible high-Tc superconductivity[7,9]. Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy we map out the spatially resolved density of states in the n=2 RP member, Sr3Ir2O7 (Ir327). We show that the Ir327 parent compound, argued to exist only as a weakly correlated band insulator in fact possesses a substantial ~130meV charge excitation gap driven by an interplay between structure, SO coupling and correlations. A critical component in distinguishing the intrinsic electronic character within the inhomogeneous textured electronic structure is our identification of the signature of missing apical oxygen defects, which play a critical role in many of the layered oxides. Our measurements combined with insights from calculations reveal how apical oxygen vacancies transfer spectral weight from higher energies to the gap energies thereby revealing a path toward obtaining metallic electronic states from the parent-insulating states in the iridates.

Uncertainty Aware Trader-Company Method: Interpretable Stock Price Prediction Capturing Uncertainty

Machine learning is an increasingly popular tool with some success in predicting stock prices. One promising method is the Trader-Company~(TC) method, which takes into account the dynamism of the stock market and has both high predictive power and interpretability. Machine learning-based stock prediction methods including the TC method have been concentrating on point prediction. However, point prediction in the absence of uncertainty estimates lacks credibility quantification and raises concerns about safety. The challenge in this paper is to make an investment strategy that combines high predictive power and the ability to quantify uncertainty. We propose a novel approach called Uncertainty Aware Trader-Company Method~(UTC) method. The core idea of this approach is to combine the strengths of both frameworks by merging the TC method with the probabilistic modeling, which provides probabilistic predictions and uncertainty estimations. We expect this to retain the predictive power and interpretability of the TC method while capturing the uncertainty. We theoretically prove that the proposed method estimates the posterior variance and does not introduce additional biases from the original TC method. We conduct a comprehensive evaluation of our approach based on the synthetic and real market datasets. We confirm with synthetic data that the UTC method can detect situations where the uncertainty increases and the prediction is difficult. We also confirmed that the UTC method can detect abrupt changes in data generating distributions. We demonstrate with real market data that the UTC method can achieve higher returns and lower risks than baselines.

Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) is one powerful technique to study the low-energy single-spin dynamics of magnetic materials. A variety of quantum magnets show novel magnetic correlations such as quantum spin liquids. These novel magnetic correlations are beyond the direct detection of INS. In this paper we propose a coincidence technique, coincidence inelastic neutron scattering (cINS), which can detect the two-spin magnetic correlations of the magnetic materials. In cINS there are two neutron sources and two neutron detectors with an additional coincidence detector. Two neutrons from the two neutron sources are incident on the target magnetic material, and they are scattered by the electron spins of the magnetic material. The two scattered neutrons are detected by the two neutron detectors in coincidence with the coincidence probability described by a two-spin Bethe-Salpeter wave function. Since the two-spin Bethe-Salpeter wave function defines the momentum-resolved dynamical wave function with two spins excited, cINS can explicitly detect the two-spin magnetic correlations of the magnetic material. Thus, it can be introduced to study the various spin valence bond states of the quantum magnets.

The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) is a new multi-fiber spectrograph on Subaru telescope. PFS will cover around 1.4 degree diameter field with ~2400 fibers. To ensure precise positioning of the fibers, a metrology camera is designed to provide the fiber position information within 5 {\mu}m error. The final positioning accuracy of PFS is targeted to be better than 10 {\mu}m. The metrology camera will locate at the Cassegrain focus of Subaru telescope to cover the whole focal plane. The PFS metrology camera will also serve for the existing multi-fiber infrared spectrograph FMOS.

One of the main challenges slowing the deployment of airborne base stations (BSs) using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is the limited on-board energy and flight time. One potential solution to such problem, is to provide the UAV with power supply through a tether that connects the UAV to the ground. In this paper, we study the optimal placement of tethered UAVs (TUAVs) to minimize the average path-loss between the TUAV and a receiver located on the ground. Given that the tether has a maximum length, and the launching point of the TUAV (the starting point of the tether) is placed on a rooftop, the TUAV is only allowed to hover within a specific hovering region. Beside the maximum tether length, this hovering region also depends on the heights of the buildings surrounding the rooftop, which requires the inclination angle of the tether not to be below a given minimum value, in order to avoid tangling and ensure safety. We first formulate the optimization problem for such setup and provide some useful insights on its solution. Next, we derive upper and lower bounds for the optimal values of the tether length and inclination angle. We also propose a suboptimal closed-form solution for the tether length and its inclination angle that is based on maximizing the line-of-sight probability. Finally, we derive the probability distribution of the minimum inclination angle of the tether length. We show that its mean value varies depending on the environment from 10 degrees in suburban environments to 31 degrees in high rise urban environments. Our numerical results show that the derived upper and lower bounds on the optimal values of the tether length and inclination angle lead to tight suboptimal values of the average path-loss that are only 0-3 dBs above the minimum value.

Inclusion of the pinning parameter in the Valkov-Khrustalev model [V.V. Valkov, B.P. Khrustalev, JETP 80 (1995) 680] allowed to describe successfully the asymmetric M(H) dependencies.

We study the effect of gas pressure on the generation of high-order harmonics where harmonics due to individual atoms are calculated using the recently developed quantitative rescattering theory, and the propagation of the laser and harmonics in the medium is calculated by solving the Maxwell's wave equation. We illustrate that the simulated spectra are very sensitive to the laser focusing conditions at high laser intensity and high pressure since the fundamental laser field is severely reshaped during the propagation. By comparing the simulated results with several experiments we show that the pressure dependence can be qualitatively explained. The lack of quantitative agreement is tentatively attributed to the failure of the complete knowledge of the experimental conditions.

Temperature correlations decay exponentially. We used an example of solvable model to find the formula, which describes long distance and large time asymptotic of correlation function of local fields. The formula describes correlation at any temperature and arbitrary coupling constant.

In this thesis, several linear and non-linear machine learning attacks on optical physical unclonable functions (PUFs) are presented. To this end, a simulation of such a PUF is implemented to generate a variety of datasets that differ in several factors in order to find the best simulation setup and to study the behavior of the machine learning attacks under different circumstances. All datasets are evaluated in terms of individual samples and their correlations with each other. In the following, both linear and deep learning approaches are used to attack these PUF simulations and comprehensively investigate the impact of different factors on the datasets in terms of their security level against attackers. In addition, the differences between the two attack methods in terms of their performance are highlighted using several independent metrics. Several improvements to these models and new attacks will be introduced and investigated sequentially, with the goal of progressively improving modeling performance. This will lead to the development of an attack capable of almost perfectly predicting the outputs of the simulated PUF. In addition, data from a real optical PUF is examined and both compared to that of the simulation and used to see how the machine learning models presented would perform in the real world. The results show that all models meet the defined criterion for a successful machine learning attack.

We have investigated magnetic field dependence of the ac magnetoresitance and the magnetoreactance in La0.67Ba0.33MnO3 over a wide frequency range from f = 0 to 30 MHz. A huge ac magnetoresistance of 55 % at f = 15 MHz in a small magnetic field of H = 100 mT and magnetoreactance of 80 % at 2 MHz are reported. We show distinct field dependence of the magnetoreactance and the magnetoresistance with increasing frequency. It is shown that while the ac magnetoresistance is negative and shows a single peak at the origin for all frequencies except f = 30 MHz, the single peak in the magnetoreactance transforms into a valley at the origin and simultaneously a double peak develops . The position of the double peak increases in field with increasing frequency. Eventually, the sign of the magnetoreactance changes from negative to positive. Our results indicate possible occurrence of the ferromagneic resonance in MHz range in unsaturated manganite.

Sampling-Based Optimal(SBO) path planning has been mainly used for robotic arm manipulation tasks. Several research works have been carried out in order to evaluate performances of various SBO planners for arm manipulation. However, not much of work is available that highlights performances of SBO planners in context of mobile robot navigation in outdoor 3D environments. This paper evaluates performances of major SBO planners in Open Motion Planning Library(OMPL) for that purpose. Due to large number of existing SBO planners, experimenting and selecting a proper planner for a planning problem can be burdensome and ambiguous. SBO planner's probabilistic nature can also add a bias to this procedure. To address this, we evaluate performances of all available SBO planners in OMPL with a randomized planning problem generation method iteratively. Evaluations are done in various state spaces suiting for different differential constraints of mobile robots. The planning setups are focused for navigation of mobile robots in outdoor environments. The outdoor environment representation is done with prebuilt OctoMaps, collision checks are performed between a 3D box representing robot body and OctoMap for validation of sampled states. Several evaluation metrics such as resulting path's length, smoothness and status of acquired final solutions are selected. According to selected metrics, performances from different SBO planners are presented comparatively. Experimental results shows the significance of parallel computing towards quicker convergence rates for optimal solutions. Several SBO methods that takes advantage of parallel computing produced better results consistently in all state spaces for different planning inquiries.

We propose an extension to the MAPF formulation, called SocialMAPF, to account for private incentives of agents in constrained environments such as doorways, narrow hallways, and corridor intersections. SocialMAPF is able to, for instance, accurately reason about the urgent incentive of an agent rushing to the hospital over another agent's less urgent incentive of going to a grocery store; MAPF ignores such agent-specific incentives. Our proposed formulation addresses the open problem of optimal and efficient path planning for agents with private incentives. To solve SocialMAPF, we propose a new class of algorithms that use mechanism design during conflict resolution to simultaneously optimize agents' private local utilities and the global system objective. We perform an extensive array of experiments that show that optimal search-based MAPF techniques lead to collisions and increased time-to-goal in SocialMAPF compared to our proposed method using mechanism design. Furthermore, we empirically demonstrate that mechanism design results in models that maximizes agent utility and minimizes the overall time-to-goal of the entire system. We further showcase the capabilities of mechanism design-based planning by successfully deploying it in environments with static obstacles. To conclude, we briefly list several research directions using the SocialMAPF formulation, such as exploring motion planning in the continuous domain for agents with private incentives.

We present a method to solve fractional optimal control problems, where the dynamic depends on integer and Caputo fractional derivatives. Our approach consists to approximate the initial fractional order problem with a new one that involves integer derivatives only. The latter problem is then discretized, by application of finite differences, and solved numerically. We illustrate the effectiveness of the procedure with an example.

A first-principles description of the spin Nernst effect, denoting the occurrence of a transverse spin current due to a temperature gradient, is presented. The approach, based on an extension to the Kubo-Streda equation for spin transport, supplies in particular the formal basis for investigations of diluted as well as concentrated alloys. Results for corresponding applications to the alloy system Au-Cu give the intrinsic and extrinsic contributions to the relevant transport coefficients. Using scaling laws allows in addition to split the extrinsic contribution into its skew scattering and side-jump parts.

For the abelian self-dual Chern-Simons-Higgs model we address existence issues of periodic vortex configurations -- the so-called condensates-- of non-topological type as $k \to 0$, where $k>0$ is the Chern-Simons parameter. We provide a positive answer to the long-standing problem on the existence of non-topological condensates with magnetic field concentrated at some of the vortex points (as a sum of Dirac measures) as $k \to 0$, a question which is of definite physical interest.

A number of observations strongly suggest that the baryon fraction is not a universal constant. One obvious interpretation is that there is some distribution of Fb, and the different observations sample different portions of the distribution. However, the small intrinsic scatter in the Tully-Fisher relation requires that the baryon fraction be very nearly universal. It is not easy to resolve this paradox in the framework of the standard picture.

We build the framework for performing loop computations in the defect version of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory which is dual to the probe D5-D3 brane system with background gauge-field flux. In this dCFT, a codimension-one defect separates two regions of space-time with different ranks of the gauge group and three of the scalar fields acquire non-vanishing and space-time-dependent vacuum expectation values. The latter leads to a highly non-trivial mass mixing problem between different colour and flavour components, which we solve using fuzzy-sphere coordinates. Furthermore, the resulting space-time dependence of the theory's Minkowski space propagators is handled by reformulating these as propagators in an effective AdS4. Subsequently, we initiate the computation of quantum corrections. The one-loop correction to the one-point function of any local gauge-invariant scalar operator is shown to receive contributions from only two Feynman diagrams. We regulate these diagrams using dimensional reduction, finding that one of the two diagrams vanishes, and discuss the procedure for calculating the one-point function of a generic operator from the SU(2) subsector. Finally, we explicitly evaluate the one-loop correction to the one-point function of the BPS vacuum state, finding perfect agreement with an earlier string-theory prediction. This constitutes a highly non-trivial test of the gauge-gravity duality in a situation where both supersymmetry and conformal symmetry are partially broken.

Reasoning in a complex and ambiguous environment is a key goal for Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents. While some sophisticated RL agents can successfully solve difficult tasks, they require a large amount of training data and often struggle to generalize to new unseen environments and new tasks. On the other hand, Large Scale Language Models (LSLMs) have exhibited strong reasoning ability and the ability to to adapt to new tasks through in-context learning. However, LSLMs do not inherently have the ability to interrogate or intervene on the environment. In this work, we investigate how to combine these complementary abilities in a single system consisting of three parts: a Planner, an Actor, and a Reporter. The Planner is a pre-trained language model that can issue commands to a simple embodied agent (the Actor), while the Reporter communicates with the Planner to inform its next command. We present a set of tasks that require reasoning, test this system's ability to generalize zero-shot and investigate failure cases, and demonstrate how components of this system can be trained with reinforcement-learning to improve performance.

We study the normal modes of a two-dimensional rotating Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a quadratic plus quartic trap. Hydrodynamic theory and sum rules are used to derive analytical predictions for the collective frequencies in the limit of high angular velocities, $\Omega$, where the vortex lattice produced by the rotation exhibits an annular structure. We predict a class of excitations with frequency $\sqrt{6} \Omega$ in the rotating frame, irrespective of the mode multipolarity $m$, as well as a class of low energy modes with frequency proportional to $|m|/\Omega$. The predictions are in good agreement with results of numerical simulations based on the 2D Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The same analysis is also carried out at even higher angular velocities, where the system enters the giant vortex regime.

We present a numerical methodology for construction of reduced order models, ROMs, of fluid flows through the combination of flow modal decomposition and regression analysis. Spectral proper orthogonal decomposition, SPOD, is applied to reduce the dimensionality of the model and, at the same time, filter the POD temporal modes. The regression step is performed by a deep feedforward neural network, DNN, and the current framework is implemented in a context similar to the sparse identification of non-linear dynamics algorithm, SINDy. A discussion on the optimization of the DNN hyperparameters is provided for obtaining the best ROMs and an assessment of these models is presented for a canonical nonlinear oscillator and the compressible flow past a cylinder. Then, the method is tested on the reconstruction of a turbulent flow computed by a large eddy simulation of a plunging airfoil under dynamic stall. The reduced order model is able to capture the dynamics of the leading edge stall vortex and the subsequent trailing edge vortex. For the cases analyzed, the numerical framework allows the prediction of the flowfield beyond the training window using larger time increments than those employed by the full order model. We also demonstrate the robustness of the current ROMs constructed via deep feedforward neural networks through a comparison with sparse regression. The DNN approach is able to learn transient features of the flow and presents more accurate and stable long-term predictions compared to sparse regression.

We report a model study on the effects of clouds on emission spectra of super-Venus planets. Our goal is to assess possible ways to identify characteristic spectral features due to clouds. We show that it is possible to distinguish an impact of H2SO4 clouds on the CO2 absorption band at 4.8 micron for temperature profiles with and without a thermal inversion. The thermal inversion can help to distinguish the signal from high altitude clouds (85 km, ~1 mbar). Featureless emission spectra are found for high altitude clouds (85 km, ~1 mbar) with temperature profile without thermal inversion. More spectral features appear in the emission spectra with decreasing cloud top altitudes. The compactness of clouds has an inverse effect on emission spectra than cloud top altitudes. Small cloud scale heights reduce the signal and the CO2 absorption bands become flat.

The sparsity of extrinsic rewards poses a serious challenge for reinforcement learning (RL). Currently, many efforts have been made on curiosity which can provide a representative intrinsic reward for effective exploration. However, the challenge is still far from being solved. In this paper, we present a novel curiosity for RL, named DyMeCu, which stands for Dynamic Memory-based Curiosity. Inspired by human curiosity and information theory, DyMeCu consists of a dynamic memory and dual online learners. The curiosity arouses if memorized information can not deal with the current state, and the information gap between dual learners can be formulated as the intrinsic reward for agents, and then such state information can be consolidated into the dynamic memory. Compared with previous curiosity methods, DyMeCu can better mimic human curiosity with dynamic memory, and the memory module can be dynamically grown based on a bootstrap paradigm with dual learners. On multiple benchmarks including DeepMind Control Suite and Atari Suite, large-scale empirical experiments are conducted and the results demonstrate that DyMeCu outperforms competitive curiosity-based methods with or without extrinsic rewards. We will release the code to enhance reproducibility.

Absolute proper motions are determined for stars and galaxies to V=17.5 over a 450 square-degree area that encloses both Magellanic Clouds. The proper motions are based on photographic and CCD observations of the Yale/San Juan Southern Proper Motion program, which span over a baseline of 40 years. Multiple, local relative proper motion measures are combined in an overlap solution using photometrically selected Galactic Disk stars to define a global relative system that is then transformed to absolute using external galaxies and Hipparcos stars to tie into the ICRS. The resulting catalog of 1.4 million objects is used to derive the mean absolute proper motions of the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud; $(\mu_\alpha\cos\delta,\mu_\delta)_{LMC}=(1.89,+0.39)\pm (0.27,0.27)\;\;\{mas yr}^{-1}$ and $(\mu_\alpha\cos\delta,\mu_\delta)_{SMC}=(0.98,-1.01)\pm (0.30,0.29)\;\;\{mas yr}^{-1}$. These mean motions are based on best-measured samples of 3822 LMC stars and 964 SMC stars. A dominant portion (0.25 mas yr$^{-1}$) of the formal errors is due to the estimated uncertainty in the inertial system of the Hipparcos Catalog stars used to anchor the bright end of our proper motion measures. A more precise determination can be made for the proper motion of the SMC {\it relative} to the LMC; $(\mu_{\alpha\cos\delta},\mu_\delta)_{SMC-LMC} = (-0.91,-1.49) \pm (0.16,0.15)\;\;\{mas yr}^{-1}$. This differential value is combined with measurements of the proper motion of the LMC taken from the literature to produce new absolute proper-motion determinations for the SMC, as well as an estimate of the total velocity difference of the two clouds to within $\pm$54 kms$^{-1}$.

Majority of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are believed to be super-Eddington objects, providing a nearby prototype for studying an accretion in super-critical regime. In this work, we present the study of time-lag spectra of the ULX NGC 5408 X-1 using a reverberation mapping technique. The time-lag data were binned using two different methods: time averaged-based and luminosity-based spectral bins. These spectra were fitted using two proposed geometric models: single and multiple photon scattering models. While both models similarly assume that a fraction of hard photons emitted from inner accretion disc could be down-scattered with the super-Eddington outflowing wind becoming lagged, soft photons, they are different by the number that the hard photons scattering with the wind: i.e. single vs multiple times. In case of averaged spectrum, both models consistently constrained the mass of ULX in the range of $\sim$80-500 M$_{\rm \odot}$. However, for the modelling results from the luminosity based spectra, the confidence interval of the BH mass is significantly improved and is constrained to the range of $\sim$75-90 M$_{\rm \odot}$. In addition, the models suggest that the wind geometry is extended in which the photons could down-scatter with the wind at the distance of $\sim$10$^{4}$ - 10$^{6}$ $r_{\rm g}$. The results also suggest the variability of the lag spectra as a function of ULX luminosity, but the clear trend of changing accretion disc geometry with the spectral variability is not observed.

We study the existence and uniqueness of this barycenter, we show how it is related to a larger multi-marginal optimal transport problem, and we propose a dual formulation. Finally, we explain how to compute numerically this generalized barycenter on discrete distributions, and we propose an explicit solution for Gaussian distributions.

Flat electronic bands, characteristic of magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBG), host a wealth of correlated phenomena. Early theoretical considerations suggested that, at the magic angle, the Dirac velocity vanishes and the entire width of the moir\'e bands becomes extremely narrow. Yet, this scenario contradicts experimental studies that reveal a finite Dirac velocity as well as bandwidths significantly larger than predicted. Here we use spatially resolved spectroscopy in finite and zero magnetic fields to examine the electronic structure of moir\'e bands and their intricate connection to correlated phases. By following the relative shifts of Landau levels in finite fields, we detect filling-dependent band flattening, that unexpectedly starts already at ~1.3 degrees, well above the magic angle and hence nominally in the weakly correlated regime. We further show that, as the twist angle is reduced, the moir\'e bands become maximally flat at progressively lower doping levels. Surprisingly, when the twist angles reach values for which the maximal flattening occurs at approximate filling of $-2$, $+1$,$+2$,$+3$ electrons per moir\'e unit cell, the corresponding zero-field correlated phases start to emerge. Our observations are corroborated by calculations that incorporate an interplay between the Coulomb charging energy and exchange interactions; together these effects produce band flattening and hence a significant density-of-states enhancement that facilitates the observed symmetry-breaking cascade transitions. Besides emerging phases pinned to integer fillings, we also experimentally identify a series of pronounced correlation-driven band deformations and soft gaps in a wider doping range around $\pm 2$ filling where superconductivity is expected. Our results highlight the role of interaction-driven band-flattening in forming robust correlated phases in TBG.

We calculate the Andreev conductance of a superconducting ring interrupted by a flux-biased Josephson junction, searching for electrical signatures of circulating edge states. Two-dimensional pair potentials of spin-singlet d-wave and spin-triplet p-wave symmetry support, respectively, (chiral) Dirac modes and (chiral or helical) Majorana modes. These produce h/e-periodic magnetoconductance oscillations of amplitude \simeq (e^{2}/h)N^{-1/2}, measured via an N-mode point contact at the inner or outer perimeter of the grounded ring. For Dirac modes the oscillations in the two contacts are independent, while for an unpaired Majorana mode they are phase locked by a topological phase transition at the Josephson junction.

Broadly distributed random variables with a power-law distribution $f(m) \sim m^{-(1+\alpha)}$ are known to generate condensation effects, in the sense that, when the exponent $\alpha$ lies in a certain interval, the largest variable in a sum of $N$ (independent and identically distributed) terms is for large $N$ of the same order as the sum itself. In particular, when the distribution has infinite mean ($0<\alpha<1$) one finds unconstrained condensation, whereas for $\alpha>1$ constrained condensation takes places fixing the total mass to a large enough value $M=\sum_{i=1}^N m_i > M_c$. In both cases, a standard indicator of the condensation phenomenon is the participation ratio $Y_k=\langle \sum_i m_i^k / (\sum_i m_i)^k\rangle$ ($k>1$), which takes a finite value for $N \to \infty$ when condensation occurs. To better understand the connection between constrained and unconstrained condensation, we study here the situation when the total mass is fixed to a superextensive value $M \sim N^{1+\delta}$ ($\delta >0$), hence interpolating between the unconstrained condensation case (where the typical value of the total mass scales as $M\sim N^{1/\alpha}$ for $\alpha<1$) and the extensive constrained mass. In particular we show that for exponents $\alpha<1$ a condensate phase for values $\delta > \delta_c=1/\alpha-1$ is separated from a homogeneous phase at $\delta < \delta_c$ by a transition line, $\delta=\delta_c$, where a weak condensation phenomenon takes place. We focus on the evaluation of the participation ratio as a generic indicator of condensation, also recalling or presenting results in the standard cases of unconstrained mass and of fixed extensive mass.

Meta-reinforcement learning (meta-RL) is a promising approach that enables the agent to learn new tasks quickly. However, most meta-RL algorithms show poor generalization in multi-task scenarios due to the insufficient task information provided only by rewards. Language-conditioned meta-RL improves the generalization capability by matching language instructions with the agent's behaviors. While both behaviors and language instructions have symmetry, which can speed up human learning of new knowledge. Thus, combining symmetry and language instructions into meta-RL can help improve the algorithm's generalization and learning efficiency. We propose a dual-MDP meta-reinforcement learning method that enables learning new tasks efficiently with symmetrical behaviors and language instructions. We evaluate our method in multiple challenging manipulation tasks, and experimental results show that our method can greatly improve the generalization and learning efficiency of meta-reinforcement learning.

Any finite group can be encoded as the automorphism group of an unlabeled simple graph. Recently Hartke, Kolb, Nishikawa, and Stolee (2010) demonstrated a construction that allows any ordered pair of finite groups to be represented as the automorphism group of a graph and a vertex-deleted subgraph. In this note, we describe a generalized scenario as a game between a player and an adversary: An adversary provides a list of finite groups and a number of rounds. The player constructs a graph with automorphism group isomorphic to the first group. In the following rounds, the adversary selects a group and the player deletes a vertex such that the automorphism group of the corresponding vertex-deleted subgraph is isomorphic to the selected group. We provide a construction that allows the player to appropriately respond to any sequence of challenges from the adversary.

Question answering systems may find the answers to users' questions from either unstructured texts or structured data such as knowledge graphs. Answering questions using supervised learning approaches including deep learning models need large training datasets. In recent years, some datasets have been presented for the task of Question answering over knowledge graphs, which is the focus of this paper. Although many datasets in English were proposed, there have been a few question-answering datasets in Persian. This paper introduces \textit{PeCoQ}, a dataset for Persian question answering. This dataset contains 10,000 complex questions and answers extracted from the Persian knowledge graph, FarsBase. For each question, the SPARQL query and two paraphrases that were written by linguists are provided as well. There are different types of complexities in the dataset, such as multi-relation, multi-entity, ordinal, and temporal constraints. In this paper, we discuss the dataset's characteristics and describe our methodology for building it.

We prove a strengthened version of a theorem of Lionel Schwartz that says that certain modules over the Steenrod algebra cannot be the mod 2 cohomology of a space. What is most interesting is our method, which replaces his iterated use of the Eilenberg--Moore spectral sequence by a single use of the spectral sequence converging to the mod 2 cohomology of Omega^nX obtained from the Goodwillie tower for the suspension spectrum of Omega^nX. Much of the paper develops basic properties of this spectral sequence.

Tunable QoS-Aware Network Survivability

Coping with network failures has been recognized as an issue of major importance in terms of social security, stability and prosperity. It has become clear that current networking standards fall short of coping with the complex challenge of surviving failures. The need to address this challenge has become a focal point of networking research. In particular, the concept of \textbf{\emph{tunable survivability}} offers major performance improvements over traditional approaches. Indeed, while the traditional approach aims at providing full (100\%) protection against network failures through disjoint paths, it was realized that this requirement is too restrictive in practice. Tunable survivability provides a quantitative measure for specifying the desired level (0\%-100\%) of survivability and offers flexibility in the choice of the routing paths. Previous work focused on the simpler class of "bottleneck" criteria, such as bandwidth. In this study, we focus on the important and much more complex class of \emph{additive} criteria, such as delay and cost. First, we establish some (in part, counter-intuitive) properties of the optimal solution. Then, we establish efficient algorithmic schemes for optimizing the level of survivability under additive end-to-end QoS bounds. Subsequently, through extensive simulations, we show that, at the price of \emph{negligible} reduction in the level of survivability, a major improvement (up to a factor of $2$) is obtained in terms of end-to-end QoS performance. Finally, we exploit the above findings in the context of a network design problem, in which, for a given investment budget, we aim to improve the survivability of the network links.

We study relations between different kinds of non-commutative spheres which have appeared in the context of ADS/CFT correspondences recently, emphasizing the connections between spaces that have manifest quantum group symmetry and spaces that have manifest classical symmetry. In particular we consider the quotient $SU_q(2)/U(1)$ at roots of unity, and find its relations with the fuzzy sphere with manifest classical SU(2) symmetry. Deformation maps between classical and quantum symmetry, the $U_q(SU(2))$ module structure of quantum spheres and the structure of indecomposable representations of $U_q(SU(2))$ at roots of unity conspire in an interesting way to allow the relation between manifestly $U_q(SU(2)$ symmetric spheres and manifestly U(SU(2)) symmetric spheres. The relation suggests that a subset of field theory actions on the q-sphere are equivalent to actions on the fuzzy sphere. The results here are compatible with the proposal that quantum spheres at roots of unity appear as effective geometries which account for finite N effects in the ADS/CFT correspondence.

We study the nonlinear realization of supersymmetry in a dynamical/cosmological background in which derivative terms like kinetic terms are finite. Starting from linearly realized theories, we integrate out heavy modes without neglecting derivative terms to obtain algebraic constraints on superfields. Thanks to the supersymmetry breaking contribution by the kinetic energy, the validity of constrained superfields can be extended to cosmological regimes and phenomena such as reheating after inflation, kinetic-energy domination, and the kinetic and standard misalignment of axion.

Typically, quantum mechanics is thought of as a linear theory with unitary evolution governed by the Schr\"odinger equation. While this is technically true and useful for a physicist, with regards to computation it is an unfortunately narrow point of view. Just as a classical computer can simulate highly nonlinear functions of classical states, so too can the more general quantum computer simulate nonlinear evolutions of quantum states. We detail one particular simulation of nonlinearity on a quantum computer, showing how the entire class of $\mathbb{R}$-unitary evolutions (on $n$ qubits) can be simulated using a unitary, real-amplitude quantum computer (consisting of $n+1$ qubits in total). These operators can be represented as the sum of a linear and antilinear operator, and add an intriguing new set of nonlinear quantum gates to the toolbox of the quantum algorithm designer. Furthermore, a subgroup of these nonlinear evolutions, called the $\mathbb{R}$-Cliffords, can be efficiently classically simulated, by making use of the fact that Clifford operators can simulate non-Clifford (in fact, non-linear) operators. This perspective of using the physical operators that we have to simulate non-physical ones that we do not is what we call bottom-up simulation, and we give some examples of its broader implications.

A locally compact contraction group is a pair (G,f) where G is a locally compact group and f an automorphism of G which is contractive in the sense that the forward orbit under f of each g in G converges to the neutral element e, as n tends to infinity. We show that every surjective, continuous, equivariant homomorphism between locally compact contraction groups admits an equivariant continuous global section. As a consequence, extensions of locally compact contraction groups with abelian kernel can be described by continuous equivariant cohomology. For each prime number p, we use 2-cocycles to construct uncountably many pairwise non-isomorphic totally disconnected, locally compact contraction groups (G,f) which are central extensions of the additive group of the field of formal Laurent series over Z/pZ by itself. By contrast, there are only countably many locally compact contraction groups (up to isomorphism) which are torsion groups and abelian, as follows from a classification of the abelian locally compact contraction groups.

In Wireless Ad hoc networks (WANETs), nodes separated by considerable distance communicate with each other by relaying their messages through other nodes. However, it might not be in the best interests of a node to forward the message of another node due to power constraints. In addition, all nodes being rational, some nodes may be selfish, i.e. they might not relay data from other nodes so as to increase their lifetime. In this paper, we present a fair and incentivized approach for participation in Ad hoc networks. Given the power required for each transmission, we are able to determine the power saving contributed by each intermediate hop. We propose the FAir Share incenTivizEd Ad hoc paRticipation protocol (FASTER), which takes a selected route from a routing protocol as input, to calculate the worth of each node using the cooperative game theory concept of 'Shapley Value' applied on the power saved by each node. This value can be used for allocation of Virtual Currency to the nodes, which can be spent on subsequent message transmissions.

We consider the problem of learning knowledge graph (KG) embeddings for entity alignment (EA). Current methods use the embedding models mainly focusing on triple-level learning, which lacks the ability of capturing long-term dependencies existing in KGs. Consequently, the embedding-based EA methods heavily rely on the amount of prior (known) alignment, due to the identity information in the prior alignment cannot be efficiently propagated from one KG to another. In this paper, we propose RSN4EA (recurrent skipping networks for EA), which leverages biased random walk sampling for generating long paths across KGs and models the paths with a novel recurrent skipping network (RSN). RSN integrates the conventional recurrent neural network (RNN) with residual learning and can largely improve the convergence speed and performance with only a few more parameters. We evaluated RSN4EA on a series of datasets constructed from real-world KGs. Our experimental results showed that it outperformed a number of state-of-the-art embedding-based EA methods and also achieved comparable performance for KG completion.

The intercalated water into nanopores exhibits anomalous properties such as ultralow dielectric constant.~Multi-scale modeling and simulations are used to investigate the dielectric properties of various crystalline two-dimensional ices and bulk ices. Although, the structural properties of two-dimensional (2D-) ices have been extensively studied, much less is known about their electronic and optical properties. First, by using density functional theory (DFT) and density functional perturbation theory (DFPT), we calculate the key electronic, optical and dielectric properties of 2D-ices. Performing DFPT calculations, both the ionic and electronic contributions of the dielectric constant are computed. The in-plane electronic dielectric constant is found to be larger than the out-of-plane dielectric constant for all the studied 2D-ices. The in-plane dielectric constant of the electronic response is found to be isotropic for all the studied ices. Secondly, we determined the dipolar dielectric constant of 2D-ices using molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) at finite temperature. The total out-of-plane dielectric constant is found to be larger than 2 for all the studied 2D-ices. Within the framework of the random-phase approximation (RPA), the absorption energy ranges for 2D-ices are found to be in the ultraviolet spectra. For the comparison purposes, we also elucidate the electronic, dielectric and optical properties of four crystalline ices (ice VIII, ice XI, ice Ic and ice Ih) and bulk water.

The classical theory of chemical reactions can be understood in terms of diffusive barrier crossing, where the rate of a reaction is determined by the inverse of the mean first passage time (FPT) to cross a free energy barrier. Whenever a few reaction events suffice to trigger a response or the energy barriers are not high, the mean first passage time alone does not suffice to characterize the kinetics, i.e., the kinetics do not occur on a single time-scale. Instead, the full statistics of the FPT are required. We present a spectral representation of the FPT statistics that allows us to understand and accurately determine FPT distributions over several orders of magnitudes in time. A canonical narrowing of the first passage density is shown to emerge whenever several molecules are searching for the same target, which was termed the 'few-encounter limit'. The few-encounter limit is essential in all situations, in which already the first encounter triggers a response, such as misfolding-triggered aggregation of proteins or protein transcription regulation.

We define the "localized index" of longitudinal elliptic operators on Lie groupoids associated to Lie algebroid cohomology classes. We derive a topological expression for these numbers using the algebraic index theorem for Poisson manifolds on the dual of the Lie algebroid. Underlying the definition and computation of the localized index, is an action of the Hopf algebroid of jets around the unit space, and the characteristic map it induces on Lie algebroid cohomology. This map can be globalized to differentiable groupoid cohomology, giving a definition as well as a computation of the "global index". The correspondence between the "global" and "localized" index is given by the van Est map for Lie groupoids.

One of the most fundamental forms of magnon-phonon interaction is an intrinsic property of magnetic materials, the "magnetoelastic coupling". This particular form of interaction has been the basis for describing magnetic materials and their strain related applications, where strain induces changes of internal magnetic fields. Different from the magnetoelastic coupling, more than 40 years ago, it was proposed that surface acoustic waves may induce surface magnons via rotational motion of the lattice in anisotropic magnets. However, a signature of this magnon-phonon coupling mechanism, termed magneto-rotation coupling, has been elusive. Here, we report the first observation and theoretical framework of the magneto-rotation coupling in a perpendicularly anisotropic ultra-thin film Ta/CoFeB(1.6 nm)/MgO, which consequently induces nonreciprocal acoustic wave attenuation with a unprecedented ratio up to 100$\%$ rectification at the theoretically predicted optimized condition. Our work not only experimentally demonstrates a fundamentally new path for investigating magnon-phonon coupling, but also justify the feasibility of the magneto-rotation coupling based application.

A bivariate random vector can exhibit either asymptotic independence or dependence between the largest values of its components. When used as a statistical model for risk assessment in fields such as finance, insurance or meteorology, it is crucial to understand which of the two asymptotic regimes occurs. Motivated by their ubiquity and flexibility, we consider the extremal dependence properties of vectors with a random scale construction $(X_1,X_2)=R(W_1,W_2)$, with non-degenerate $R>0$ independent of $(W_1,W_2)$. Focusing on the presence and strength of asymptotic tail dependence, as expressed through commonly-used summary parameters, broad factors that affect the results are: the heaviness of the tails of $R$ and $(W_1,W_2)$, the shape of the support of $(W_1,W_2)$, and dependence between $(W_1,W_2)$. When $R$ is distinctly lighter tailed than $(W_1,W_2)$, the extremal dependence of $(X_1,X_2)$ is typically the same as that of $(W_1,W_2)$, whereas similar or heavier tails for $R$ compared to $(W_1,W_2)$ typically result in increased extremal dependence. Similar tail heavinesses represent the most interesting and technical cases, and we find both asymptotic independence and dependence of $(X_1,X_2)$ possible in such cases when $(W_1,W_2)$ exhibit asymptotic independence. The bivariate case often directly extends to higher-dimensional vectors and spatial processes, where the dependence is mainly analyzed in terms of summaries of bivariate sub-vectors. The results unify and extend many existing examples, and we use them to propose new models that encompass both dependence classes.

Using extended island formula we compute entanglement entropy of Hawking radiation for black hole solutions of certain gravitational models containing higher derivative terms. To be concrete we consider two different four dimensional models to compute entropy for both asymptotically flat and AdS black holes. One observes that the resultant entropy follows the Page curve, thanks to the contribution of the island, despite the fact that the corresponding gravitational models might be non-unitary.

There are indications that the third known eruption of the recurrent nova T CrB is imminent, and multi-wavelength observations prior to the eruption are important to characterise the system before it erupts. T CrB is known to display the SiO fundamental vibrational feature at 8$\,\mu$m. When the anticipated eruption occurs, it is possible that the shock produced when the ejected material runs into the wind of the red giant in the system may be traced using SiO maser emission. We have used the 100m Effelsberg Radio Telescope to search for $^{28}$SiO emission in the $\upsilon=1$, $\upsilon=2$, $J=1\rightarrow0$ transitions, at 43.122 GHz and 42.820~GHz respectively, while the system is in quiescence. We find no evidence for such emission.

Modeling communication dynamics in the brain is a key challenge in network neuroscience. We present here a framework that combines two measurements for any system where different communication processes are taking place on top of a fixed structural topology: Path Processing Score (PPS) estimates how much the brain signal has changed or has been transformed between any two brain regions (source and target); Path Broadcasting Strength (PBS) estimates the propagation of the signal through edges adjacent to the path being assessed. We use PPS and PBS to explore communication dynamics in large-scale brain networks. We show that brain communication dynamics can be divided into three main 'communication regimes' of information transfer: absent communication (no communication happening); relay communication (information is being transferred almost intact); transducted communication (the information is being transformed). We use PBS to categorize brain regions based on the way they broadcast information. Subcortical regions are mainly direct broadcasters to multiple receivers; Temporal and frontal nodes mainly operate as broadcast relay brain stations; Visual and somato-motor cortices act as multi-channel transducted broadcasters. This work paves the way towards the field of brain network information theory by providing a principled methodology to explore communication dynamics in large-scale brain networks.

Its influence to the measurement of CP violation is investigated and a comparison with the commonly used global density models made. Significant differences are found in the comparison of the results of the different density models.

Per-instance automated algorithm configuration and selection are gaining significant moments in evolutionary computation in recent years. Two crucial, sometimes implicit, ingredients for these automated machine learning (AutoML) methods are 1) feature-based representations of the problem instances and 2) performance prediction methods that take the features as input to estimate how well a specific algorithm instance will perform on a given problem instance. Non-surprisingly, common machine learning models fail to make predictions for instances whose feature-based representation is underrepresented or not covered in the training data, resulting in poor generalization ability of the models for problems not seen during training.In this work, we study leave-one-problem-out (LOPO) performance prediction. We analyze whether standard random forest (RF) model predictions can be improved by calibrating them with a weighted average of performance values obtained by the algorithm on problem instances that are sufficiently close to the problem for which a performance prediction is sought, measured by cosine similarity in feature space. While our RF+clust approach obtains more accurate performance prediction for several problems, its predictive power crucially depends on the chosen similarity threshold as well as on the feature portfolio for which the cosine similarity is measured, thereby opening a new angle for feature selection in a zero-shot learning setting, as LOPO is termed in machine learning.

Noise properties of an idealized atomic magnetometer that utilizes spin squeezing induced by a continuous quantum nondemolition measurement are considered. Such a magnetometer measures spin precession of $N$ atomic spins by detecting optical rotation of far-detuned light. Fundamental noise sources include the quantum projection noise and the photon shot-noise. For measurement times much shorter than the spin-relaxation time observed in the absence of light ($\tau_{\rm rel}$) divided by $\sqrt{N}$, the optimal sensitivity of the magnetometer scales as $N^{-3/4}$, so an advantage over the usual sensitivity scaling as $N^{-1/2}$ can be achieved. However, at longer measurement times, the optimized sensitivity scales as $N^{-1/2}$, as for a usual shot-noise limited magnetometer. If strongly squeezed probe light is used, the Heisenberg uncertainty limit may, in principle, be reached for very short measurement times. However, if the measurement time exceeds $\tau_{\rm rel}/N$, the $N^{-1/2}$ scaling is again restored.

We perform hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) simulatons of two flavors QCD with the optimal domain-wall fermion (ODWF) on the 16^3 x 32 lattice (with lattice spacing a ~ 0.1 fm), for eight sea-quark masses corresponding to pion masses in the range 228-565 MeV. We calculate the mass and the decay constant of the pseudoscalar meson, and compare our data with the chiral perturbation theory (ChPT). We find that our data is in good agreement with the sea-quark mass dependence predicted by the next-to-leading order (NLO) ChPT, and provides a determination of the low-energy constants \bar{l}_3 and \bar{l}_4, the pion decay constant, the chiral condensate, and the average up and down quark mass.

Energy efficiency and safety are two critical objectives for marine vehicles operating in environments with obstacles, and they generally conflict with each other. In this paper, we propose a novel online motion planning method of marine vehicles which can make trade-offs between the two design objectives based on the framework of economic model predictive control (EMPC). Firstly, the feasible trajectory with the most safety margin is designed and utilized as tracking reference. Secondly, the EMPC-based receding horizon motion planning algorithm is designed, in which the practical consumed energy and safety measure (i.e., the distance between the planning trajectory and the reference) are considered. Experimental results verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.

Deep neural networks implement a sequence of layer-by-layer operations that are each relatively easy to understand, but the resulting overall computation is generally difficult to understand. We consider a simple hypothesis for interpreting the layer-by-layer construction of useful representations: perhaps the role of each layer is to reformat information to reduce the "distance" to the desired outputs. With this framework, the layer-wise computation implemented by a deep neural network can be viewed as a path through a high-dimensional representation space. We formalize this intuitive idea of a "path" by leveraging recent advances in *metric* representational similarity. We extend existing representational distance methods by computing geodesics, angles, and projections of representations, going beyond mere layer distances. We then demonstrate these tools by visualizing and comparing the paths taken by ResNet and VGG architectures on CIFAR-10. We conclude by sketching additional ways that this kind of representational geometry can be used to understand and interpret network training, and to describe novel kinds of similarities between different models.

Many real-world control systems, such as the smart grid and human sensorimotor control systems, have decentralized components that react quickly using local information and centralized components that react slowly using a more global view. This paper seeks to provide a theoretical framework for how to design controllers that are decomposed across timescales in this way. The framework is analogous to how the network utility maximization framework uses optimization decomposition to distribute a global control problem across independent controllers, each of which solves a local problem; except our goal is to decompose a global problem temporally, extracting a timescale separation. Our results highlight that decomposition of a multi-timescale controller into a fast timescale, reactive controller and a slow timescale, predictive controller can be near-optimal in a strong sense. In particular, we exhibit such a design, named Multi-timescale Reflexive Predictive Control (MRPC), which maintains a per-timestep cost within a constant factor of the offline optimal in an adversarial setting.

In this work we consider conformal gauge transformations of the geometric structure of thermodynamic fluctuation theory. In particular, we show that the Thermodynamic Phase Space is naturally endowed with a non-integrable connection, defined by all those processes that annihilate the Gibbs 1-form, i.e. reversible processes. Therefore the geometry of reversible processes is invariant under re-scalings, that is, it has a conformal gauge freedom. Interestingly, as a consequence of the non-integrability of the connection, its curvature is not invariant under conformal gauge transformations and, therefore, neither is the associated pseudo-Riemannian geometry. We argue that this is not surprising, since these two objects are associated with irreversible processes. Moreover, we provide the explicit form in which all the elements of the geometric structure of the Thermodynamic Phase Space change under a conformal gauge transformation. As an example, we revisit the change of the thermodynamic representation and consider the resulting change between the two metrics on the Thermodynamic Phase Space which induce Weinhold's energy metric and Ruppeiner's entropy metric. As a by-product we obtain a proof of the well-known conformal relation between Weinhold's and Ruppeiner's metrics along the equilibrium directions. Finally, we find interesting properties of the almost para-contact structure and of its eigenvectors which may be of physical interest.

Road traffic casualties represent a hidden global epidemic, demanding evidence-based interventions. This paper demonstrates a network lattice approach for identifying road segments of particular concern, based on a case study of a major city (Leeds, UK), in which 5,862 crashes of different severities were recorded over an eight-year period (2011-2018). We consider a family of Bayesian hierarchical models that include spatially structured and unstructured random effects, to capture the dependencies between the severity levels. Results highlight roads that are more prone to collisions, relative to estimated traffic volumes, in the northwest and south of city-centre. We analyse the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (MAUP), proposing a novel procedure to investigate the presence of MAUP on a network lattice. We conclude that our methods enable a reliable estimation of road safety levels to help identify "hotspots" on the road network and to inform effective local interventions.

X-shaped radio galaxies are defined by their peculiar large-scale radio morphology. In addition to the classical double-lobed structure they have a pair of low-luminosity wings that straddles the nucleus at almost right angles to the active lobes, thus giving the impression of an 'X'. In this paper we study for the first time the optical spectral properties of this object class using a large sample (~50 sources). We find that the X-shaped radio population is composed roughly equally of sources with weak and strong emission line spectra, which makes them, in combination with the well-known fact that they preferentially have radio powers intermediate between those of Fanaroff-Riley type I (FR I) and type II (FR II) radio galaxies, the archetypal transition population. We do not find evidence in support of the proposition that the X-shape is the result of a recent merger: X-shaped radio sources do not have unusually broad emission lines, their nuclear environments are in general not dusty, and their host galaxies do not show signs of enhanced star formation. Instead, we observe that the nuclear regions of X-shaped radio sources have relatively high temperatures. This finding favours models, which propose that the X-shape is the result of an overpressured environment.

Agile Inexact Methods for Spectral Projector-Based Graph Fourier Transforms

We propose an inexact method for the graph Fourier transform of a graph signal, as defined by the signal decomposition over the Jordan subspaces of the graph adjacency matrix. This method projects the signal over the generalized eigenspaces of the adjacency matrix, which accelerates the transform computation over large, sparse, and directed adjacency matrices. The trade-off between execution time and fidelity to the original graph structure is discussed. In addition, properties such as a generalized Parseval's identity and total variation ordering of the generalized eigenspaces are discussed. The method is applied to 2010-2013 NYC taxi trip data to identify traffic hotspots on the Manhattan grid. Our results show that identical highly expressed geolocations can be identified with the inexact method and the method based on eigenvector projections, while reducing computation time by a factor of 26,000 and reducing energy dispersal among the spectral components corresponding to the multiple zero eigenvalue.

On the Sampling Strategy for Evaluation of Spectral-spatial Methods in Hyperspectral Image Classification

Spectral-spatial processing has been increasingly explored in remote sensing hyperspectral image classification. While extensive studies have focused on developing methods to improve the classification accuracy, experimental setting and design for method evaluation have drawn little attention. In the scope of supervised classification, we find that traditional experimental designs for spectral processing are often improperly used in the spectral-spatial processing context, leading to unfair or biased performance evaluation. This is especially the case when training and testing samples are randomly drawn from the same image - a practice that has been commonly adopted in the experiments. Under such setting, the dependence caused by overlap between the training and testing samples may be artificially enhanced by some spatial information processing methods such as spatial filtering and morphological operation. Such interaction between training and testing sets has violated data independence assumption that is abided by supervised learning theory and performance evaluation mechanism. Therefore, the widely adopted pixel-based random sampling strategy is not always suitable to evaluate spectral-spatial classification algorithms because it is difficult to determine whether the improvement of classification accuracy is caused by incorporating spatial information into classifier or by increasing the overlap between training and testing samples. To partially solve this problem, we propose a novel controlled random sampling strategy for spectral-spatial methods. It can greatly reduce the overlap between training and testing samples and provides more objective and accurate evaluation.

Recursive Bayesian Networks: Generalising and Unifying Probabilistic Context-Free Grammars and Dynamic Bayesian Networks

Probabilistic context-free grammars (PCFGs) and dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs) are widely used sequence models with complementary strengths and limitations. While PCFGs allow for nested hierarchical dependencies (tree structures), their latent variables (non-terminal symbols) have to be discrete. In contrast, DBNs allow for continuous latent variables, but the dependencies are strictly sequential (chain structure). Therefore, neither can be applied if the latent variables are assumed to be continuous and also to have a nested hierarchical dependency structure. In this paper, we present Recursive Bayesian Networks (RBNs), which generalise and unify PCFGs and DBNs, combining their strengths and containing both as special cases. RBNs define a joint distribution over tree-structured Bayesian networks with discrete or continuous latent variables. The main challenge lies in performing joint inference over the exponential number of possible structures and the continuous variables. We provide two solutions: 1) For arbitrary RBNs, we generalise inside and outside probabilities from PCFGs to the mixed discrete-continuous case, which allows for maximum posterior estimates of the continuous latent variables via gradient descent, while marginalising over network structures. 2) For Gaussian RBNs, we additionally derive an analytic approximation, allowing for robust parameter optimisation and Bayesian inference. The capacity and diverse applications of RBNs are illustrated on two examples: In a quantitative evaluation on synthetic data, we demonstrate and discuss the advantage of RBNs for segmentation and tree induction from noisy sequences, compared to change point detection and hierarchical clustering. In an application to musical data, we approach the unsolved problem of hierarchical music analysis from the raw note level and compare our results to expert annotations.

Curse of Scale-Freeness: Intractability of Large-Scale Combinatorial Optimization with Multi-Start Methods
Submitted to INFORMS Journal on Computing

This paper considers the intractability of large-scale combinatorial optimization with multi-start methods. To perform theoretical performance analysis, we focus on the random multi-start (RMS) method, one of the representative multi-start methods including the RMS local search and the greedy randomized adaptive search procedure. Our main theoretical contribution is to derive two power-law formulas by extreme value theory. One is for the expected improvement rate (EIR) of the best empirical objective value (EOV), and the other is for the expected relative gap (ERG) of the best EOV to the supremum of empirical objective values (SEV). Notably, the ERG has scale-freeness as a function of the number of iterations. Thus, the half-life of the relative gap of the best EOV is eventually proportional to the number of completed iterations by an RMS algorithm. This result can be understood as the curse of scale-freeness: the phenomenon "as trying to get closer to the goal, it is getting further away." Through numerical experiments, we observe that applying several RMS algorithms to traveling salesman problems is subject to the curse of scale-freeness. We also show that overcoming the curse of scale-freeness requires developing an algorithm that accelerates exponentially its performance relative to the RMS method.

A Transformer-Based User Satisfaction Prediction for Proactive Interaction Mechanism in DuerOS

Recently, spoken dialogue systems have been widely deployed in a variety of applications, serving a huge number of end-users. A common issue is that the errors resulting from noisy utterances, semantic misunderstandings, or lack of knowledge make it hard for a real system to respond properly, possibly leading to an unsatisfactory user experience. To avoid such a case, we consider a proactive interaction mechanism where the system predicts the user satisfaction with the candidate response before giving it to the user. If the user is not likely to be satisfied according to the prediction, the system will ask the user a suitable question to determine the real intent of the user instead of providing the response directly. With such an interaction with the user, the system can give a better response to the user. Previous models that predict the user satisfaction are not applicable to DuerOS which is a large-scale commercial dialogue system. They are based on hand-crafted features and thus can hardly learn the complex patterns lying behind millions of conversations and temporal dependency in multiple turns of the conversation. Moreover, they are trained and evaluated on the benchmark datasets with adequate labels, which are expensive to obtain in a commercial dialogue system. To face these challenges, we propose a pipeline to predict the user satisfaction to help DuerOS decide whether to ask for clarification in each turn. Specifically, we propose to first generate a large number of weak labels and then train a transformer-based model to predict the user satisfaction with these weak labels. Empirically, we deploy and evaluate our model on DuerOS, and observe a 19% relative improvement on the accuracy of user satisfaction prediction and 2.3% relative improvement on user experience.

We analyzed contribution of quark degrees of freedom in the deuteron to the longitudinal, P_z', and transverse, P_x', polarizations of the proton in the d(\vec e,e'\vec p)n break-up. It is demonstrated that such effects work in correct direction to explain experimental data. We predict that the polarizations should change qualitatively behavior at p_m >200 MeV/c, (i) the polarizations become strongly dependent on the out-of-plain angle and (ii) there appears a structure in the both polarizations at p_m ~200 MeV/c.

The paper introduces hidden grid background oriented schlieren for quantitative study and visualization of natural convection heat transfer. In this technique, the refractive index variation, induced by the temperature gradient, is encoded in the recorded signal phase through the distortion of a background pattern. The background (undistorted) pattern is implicit (or hidden) in the light source. Quantitative estimation of the phase map is obtained by windowed Fourier transform. This method offers localized processing of the signal using joint space-frequency representation. The performance of hidden grid background oriented schlieren is practically demonstrated by investigating natural convective flow, a demanding task due to its comparatively small heat transfer.

We report results of a theoretical investigation of hyperfine interactions in two homonuclear isotopologues of the hydrogen molecule: H$_{2}$ and D$_{2}$. We present a set of hyperfine coupling constants: spin-rotation, spin-spin dipole and, in the case of the D$_{2}$ molecule, electric quadrupole coupling constants for all bound states of the two isotopologues in their ground electronic $X^{1}\Sigma^{+}_{g}$ state. We provide a list of positions and intensities of 220 997 hyperfine components of 16 079 rovibrational quadrupole transitions of the O, Q and S branches. The positions and intensities of the hyperfine components are necessary for a reliable interpretation of accurate measurements of rovibrational transition frequencies in H$_{2}$ and D$_{2}$, which are used for tests of the quantum electrodynamics of molecules and searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model.

We study the kinematics of emission lines that arise from many physical processes in NGC 6153 based upon deep, spatially-resolved, high resolution spectra acquired with the UVES spectrograph at the ESO VLT. Our most basic finding is that the plasma in NGC 6153 is complex, especially its temperature structure. The kinematics of most emission lines defines a classic expansion law, with the outer part expanding fastest (normal nebular plasma). However, the permitted lines of \ion{O}{1}, \ion{C}{2}, \ion{N}{2}, \ion{O}{2}, and \ion{Ne}{2} present a constant expansion velocity that defines a second kinematic component (additional plasma component). The physical conditions imply two plasma components, with the additional plasma component having lower temperature and higher density. The [\ion{O}{2}] density and the [\ion{N}{2}] temperature are anomalous, but may be understood considering the contribution of recombination to these forbidden lines. The two plasma components have very different temperatures. The normal nebular plasma appears to be have temperature fluctuations in part of its volume (main shell), but only small fluctuations elsewhere. The additional plasma component contains about half of the mass of the N$^{2+}$ and O$^{2+}$ ions, but only $3-5$\% of the mass of H$^+$ ions, so the two plasma components have very different chemical abundances. We estimate abundances of $12+\log(\mathrm O^{2+}/\mathrm H^+)\sim 9.2$\,dex and $\mathrm{He}/\mathrm H\sim 0.13$. Although they are all complications, multiple plasma components, temperature fluctuations, and the contributions of multiple physical processes to a given emission line are all part of the reality in NGC 6153, and should generally be taken into account.

A key aim of science is explanation, yet the idea of explaining language phenomena has taken a backseat in mainstream Natural Language Processing (NLP) and many other areas of Artificial Intelligence. I argue that explanation of linguistic behaviour should be a main goal of NLP, and that this is not the same as making NLP models explainable. To illustrate these ideas, some recent models of human language production are compared with each other. I conclude by asking what it would mean for NLP research and institutional policies if our community took explanatory value seriously, while heeding some possible pitfalls.

The parton-level input of the neural networks are generated by the Hijing++ Monte Carlo event generator. Hadronization neural networks, trained with $\sqrt{s}=7$ TeV events are utilized to perform predictions for various LHC energies from $\sqrt{s}=0.9$ TeV to 13 TeV. KNO-scaling properties were adopted by the networks at hadronic level.

We show that margin-based bitext mining in a multilingual sentence space can be applied to monolingual corpora of billions of sentences. We are using ten snapshots of a curated common crawl corpus (Wenzek et al., 2019) totalling 32.7 billion unique sentences. Using one unified approach for 38 languages, we were able to mine 4.5 billions parallel sentences, out of which 661 million are aligned with English. 20 language pairs have more then 30 million parallel sentences, 112 more then 10 million, and most more than one million, including direct alignments between many European or Asian languages. To evaluate the quality of the mined bitexts, we train NMT systems for most of the language pairs and evaluate them on TED, WMT and WAT test sets. Using our mined bitexts only and no human translated parallel data, we achieve a new state-of-the-art for a single system on the WMT'19 test set for translation between English and German, Russian and Chinese, as well as German/French. In particular, our English/German system outperforms the best single one by close to 4 BLEU points and is almost on pair with best WMT'19 evaluation system which uses system combination and back-translation. We also achieve excellent results for distant languages pairs like Russian/Japanese, outperforming the best submission at the 2019 workshop on Asian Translation (WAT).

The possibility of using an optocoupler "pulsed fiber laser - photo thyristor" as a switch in excitation circuits of copper vapor lasers (CVL) is investigated. It is shown that such switch has a nanosecond speed, is able to pass monopolar or alternating current pulses through CVL with a power of up to 10 MW and a repetition rate of up to tens of kilohertz with an electric efficiency of excitation circuit of more than 95%. A simple but very accurate model of photo thyristor is proposed, which can be used in full-scale CVL modeling programs.

The Misner and Sharp approach to the study of gravitational collapse is extended to the dissipative case in, both, the streaming out and the diffusion approximations. The role of different terms in the dynamical equation are analyzed in detail. The dynamical equation is then coupled to a causal transport equation in the context of Israel--Stewart theory. The decreasing of the inertial mass density of the fluid, by a factor which depends on its internal thermodynamics state, is reobtained, at any time scale. In accordance with the equivalence principle, the same decreasing factor is obtained for the gravitational force term. Prospective applications of this result to some astrophysical scenarios are discussed.

We study the asymptotics, box dimension, and Minkowski content of trajectories of some discrete dynamical systems. We show that under very general conditions, trajectories corresponding to parameters where saddle-node bifurcation appears have box dimension equal to 1/2, while those corresponding to period-doubling bifurcation parameter have box dimension equal to 2/3. Furthermore, all these trajectories are Minkowski nondegenerate. The results are illustrated in the case of logistic map.

Revivals of quantum correlations have often been explained in terms of back-action on quantum systems by their quantum environment(s). Here we consider a system of two independently evolving qubits, each locally interacting with a classical random external field. The environments of the qubits are also independent, and there is no back-action on the qubits. Nevertheless, entanglement, quantum discord and classical correlations between the two qubits may revive in this model. We explain the revivals in terms of correlations in a classical-quantum state of the environments and the qubits. Although classical states cannot store entanglement on their own, they can play a role in storing and reviving entanglement. It is important to know how the absence of back-action, or modelling an environment as classical, affects the kind of system time evolutions one is able to describe. We find a class of global time evolutions where back-action is absent and for which there is no loss of generality in modelling the environment as classical. Finally, we show that the revivals can be connected with the increase of a parameter used to quantify non-Markovianity of the single-qubit dynamics.
