A well-known result of Stanley's shows that given a graph $G$ with chromatic symmetric function expanded into the basis of elementary symmetric functions as $X_G = \sum c_{\lambda}e_{\lambda}$, the sum of the coefficients $c_{\lambda}$ for $\lambda$ with exactly $k$ parts is equal to the number of acyclic orientations of $G$ with exactly $k$ sinks. However, more is known. The $sink$ $sequence$ of an acyclic orientation of $G$ is a tuple $(s_1,\dots,s_k)$ such that $s_1$ is the number of sinks of the orientation, and recursively each $s_i$ with $i > 1$ is the number of sinks remaining after deleting the sinks contributing to $s_1,\dots,s_{i-1}$. Equivalently, the sink sequence gives the number of vertices at each level of the poset induced by the acyclic orientation. A lesser-known follow-up result of Stanley's determines certain cases in which we can find a sum of $e$-basis coefficients that gives the number of acyclic orientations of $G$ with a given partial sink sequence. Of interest in its own right, this result also admits as a corollary a simple proof of the $e$-positivity of $X_G$ when the stability number of $G$ is $2$. In this paper, we prove a vertex-weighted generalization of this follow-up result, and conjecture a stronger version that admits a similar combinatorial interpretation for a much larger set of $e$-coefficient sums of chromatic symmetric functions. In particular, the conjectured formula would give a combinatorial interpretation for the sum of the coefficients $c_{\lambda}$ with prescribed values of $\lambda_1'$ and $\lambda_2'$ for any unweighted claw-free graph.

A stochastic theory is developed for the light transmitting the optical media exhibiting linear and nonlinear birefringence. The starting point is the two--component nonlinear Schr{"o}dinger equation (NLSE). On the basis of the ansatz of "soliton" solution for the NLSE, the evolution equation for the Stokes parameters is derived, which turns out to be the Langevin equation by taking account of randomness and dissipation inherent in the birefringent media. The Langevin equation is converted to the Fokker--Planck (FP) equation for the probability distribution by employing the technique of functional integral on the assumption of the Gaussian white noise for the random fluctuation. The specific application is considered for the optical rotation, which is described by the ellipticity (third component of the Stokes parameters) alone: (i) The asymptotic analysis is given for the functional integral, which leads to the transition rate on the Poincar{'e} sphere. (ii) The FP equation is analyzed in the strong coupling approximation, by which the diffusive behavior is obtained for the linear and nonlinear birefringence. These would provide with a basis of statistical analysis for the polarization phenomena in nonlinear birefringent media.

This paper presents an algorithm for approximately minimizing a convex function in simple, not necessarily bounded convex domains, assuming only that function values and subgradients are available. No global information about the objective function is needed apart from a strong convexity parameter (which can be put to zero if only convexity is known). The worst case number of iterations needed to achieve a given accuracy is independent of the dimension (which may be infinite) and - apart from a constant factor - best possible under a variety of smoothness assumptions on the objective function.

I offer some historical comments about the origins of Feynman's path integral approach, as an alternative approach to standard quantum mechanics. Looking at the interaction between Einstein and Feynman, which was mediated by Feynman's thesis supervisor John Wheeler, it is argued that, contrary to what one might expect, the significance of the interaction between Einstein and Feynman pertained to a critique of classical field theory, rather than to a direct critique of quantum mechanics itself. Nevertheless, the critical perspective on classical field theory became a motivation and point of departure for Feynman's space-time approach to non-relativistic quantum mechanics.

Recognizing human actions based on videos has became one of the most popular areas of research in computer vision in recent years. This area has many applications such as surveillance, robotics, health care, video search and human-computer interaction. There are many problems associated with recognizing human actions in videos such as cluttered backgrounds, obstructions, viewpoints variation, execution speed and camera movement. A large number of methods have been proposed to solve the problems. This paper focus on spatial and temporal pattern recognition for the classification of videos using Deep Neural Networks. This model takes RGB images and Optical Flow as input data and outputs an action class number. The final recognition accuracy was about 94%.

Perturbed plane Couette flow containing a thin spanwise-oriented ribbon undergoes a subcritical bifurcation at Re = 230 to a steady 3D state containing streamwise vortices. This bifurcation is followed by several others giving rise to a fascinating series of stable and unstable steady states of different symmetries and wavelengths. First, the backwards-bifurcating branch reverses direction and becomes stable near Re = 200. Then, the spanwise reflection symmetry is broken, leading to two asymmetric branches which are themselves destabilized at Re = 420. Above this Reynolds number, time evolution leads first to a metastable state whose spanwise wavelength is halved and then to complicated time-dependent behavior. These features are in agreement with experiments.

This volume contains the post-proceedings of the Tenth International Workshop on Graph Computation Models (GCM 2019: http://gcm2019.imag.fr). The workshop was held in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, on July 17th, 2019, as part of STAF 2019 (Software Technologies: Applications and Foundations). Graphs are common mathematical structures that are visual and intuitive. They constitute a natural and seamless way for system modelling in science, engineering and beyond, including computer science, biology, business process modelling, etc. Graph computation models constitute a class of very high-level models where graphs are first-class citizens. The aim of the International GCM Workshop series is to bring together researchers interested in all aspects of computation models based on graphs and graph transformation. It promotes the cross-fertilizing exchange of ideas and experiences among senior and young researchers from the different communities interested in the foundations, applications, and implementations of graph computation models and related areas. These post-proceedings contain four selected papers from GCM2019 proceedings and an invited presentation that gives an account of the very successful panel discussion dedicated to the Analysis of Graph Transformation Systems, which took place during the workshop and was animated by Reiko Heckel, Leen Lambers and Maryam Ghaffari Saadat. All submissions were subject to careful refereeing. The topics of accepted papers include theoretical aspects of graph transformation and parsing techniques as well as an application to model-driven engineering.

We consider suspened bilayer graphene under applied perpendicular electric bias field that is known to generate a single particle gap $2\Delta$ and a related electric polarization ${\cal P}$. We argue that the bias also drives a quantum phase transition from band insulator to superfluid exciton condensate. The transition occurs when the exciton binding energy exceeds the band gap $2\Delta$. We predict the critical bias (converted to band gap), $\Delta_c\approx 60$ meV, below which the excitons condense. The critical temperature, $T_c(\Delta)$, is maximum at $\Delta \approx 25$ meV, $T_c^\text{max}\approx 115$ K, decreasing significantly at smaller $\Delta$ due to thermal screening. Entering the condensate phase, the superfluid transition is accompanied by a cusp in the electric polarization ${\cal P}(\Delta)$ at $\Delta\to\Delta_c$, which provides a striking testable signature. Additionally, we find that the condensate prefers to form a pair density wave.

We study the equation of state (EOS) of kaon-condensed matter including the effects of temperature and trapped neutrinos. It is found that the order of the phase transition to a kaon-condensed phase, and whether or not Gibbs' rules for phase equilibrium can be satisfied in the case of a first order transition, depend sensitively on the choice of the kaon-nucleon interaction. The main effect of finite temperature, for any value of the lepton fraction, is to mute the effects of a first order transition, so that the thermodynamics becomes similar to that of a second order transition. Above a critical temperature, found to be at least 30--60 MeV depending upon the interaction, the first order transition disappears. The phase boundaries in baryon density versus lepton number and baryon density versus temperature planes are delineated. We find that the thermal effects on the maximum gravitational mass of neutron stars are as important as the effects of trapped neutrinos, in contrast to previously studied cases in which the matter contained only nucleons or in which hyperons and/or quark matter were considered. Kaon-condensed EOSs permit the existence of metastable neutron stars, because the maximum mass of an initially hot, lepton-rich protoneutron star is greater than that of a cold, deleptonized neutron star. The large thermal effects imply that a metastable protoneutron star's collapse to a black hole could occur much later than in previously studied cases that allow metastable configurations.

We consider a long-range percolation graph on $\mathbb Z^d$ where, in addition to the nearest-neighbor edges of $\mathbb Z^d$, distinct $x,y\in\mathbb Z^d$ are connected by an edge independently with probability asymptotic to $\beta|x-y|^{-s}$, for $s\in(d,2d)$, $\beta>0$ and $|\cdot|$ a norm on $\mathbb R^d$. We first show that, for all but a countably many $\beta>0$, the graph-theoretical (a.k.a. chemical) distance between typical vertices at $|\cdot|$-distance $r$ is, with high probability as $r\to\infty$, asymptotic to $\phi_\beta(r)(\log r)^\Delta$, where $\Delta^{-1}:=\log_2(2d/s)$ and $\phi_\beta$ is a positive, bounded and continuous function subject to $\phi_\beta(r^\gamma)=\phi_\beta(r)$ for $\gamma:=s/(2d)$. The proof parallels that in a continuum version of the model where a similar scaling was shown earlier by the first author and J. Lin. This work also conjectured that $\phi_\beta$ is constant which we show to be false by proving that $(\log\beta)^\Delta\phi_\beta$ tends, as $\beta\to\infty$, to a non-constant limit which is independent of the specifics of the model. The proof reveals arithmetic rigidity of the shortest paths that maintain a hierarchical (dyadic) structure all the way to unit scales.

Nucleosynthesis in advective disc and outflow: possible explanation for overabundances in winds from X-ray binaries

Multiple spectroscopic lines of different elements observed in winds from X-ray binaries (XRBs), based on one zone model, indicate super-solar abundance of elements, e.g. Mg, Si, S, Ar, Ca, Cr, Mn, Co. The one zone model considers similar hydrodynamics of underlying winds. In order to find a possible origin of these overabundances, we explore nucleosynthesis in advective, geometrically thick, sub-Keplerian, accretion disc in XRBs and active galactic nuclei (AGNs), and further in outflows launched from the disc. Based on flow hydrodynamics and solving nuclear network code therein by semi-implicit Euler method, we obtain abundance evolution of the elements. Although the density is very low, due to very high temperature of advective disc than Keplerian Shakura-Sunyaev disc (SSD), it is quite evident that significant nucleosynthesis occurs in the former. As the temperature at the base of the outflow is constrained by the temperature of disc, nucleosynthesis also occurs in the outflow contingent upon its launching temperature. Till now, the outer region of XRB and AGN discs is understood to be colder SSD and inner region to be advective disc, together forming a disc-wind system. Hence, newly evolved abundances after processing through outflow can change the abundances of different elements present in the environment of the whole disc-wind system. We find 2-6 times overabundant Mg, Si, Ar, Cr with respect to the respective solar abundances, which is consistent observationally. Thus for most XRBs, when only iron lines are present, inclusion of these evolved abundances is expected to change the observational analysis drastically.

In order to describe the exotic nuclear structure in unstable odd-$A$ or odd-odd nuclei, the deformed relativistic Hartree Bogoliubov theory in continuum has been extended to incorporate the blocking effect due to the odd nucleon. For a microscopic and self-consistent description of pairing correlations, continuum, deformation, blocking effects, and the extended spatial density distribution in exotic nuclei, the deformed relativistic Hartree Bogoliubov equations are solved in a Woods-Saxon basis in which the radial wave functions have a proper asymptotic behavior at large $r$. The formalism and numerical details are provided. The code is checked by comparing the results with those of spherical relativistic continuum Hartree Bogoliubov theory in the nucleus $^{19}$O. The prolate deformed nucleus $^{15}$C is studied by examining the neutron levels and density distributions.

We propose to use novel and classical audio and text signal-processing and otherwise techniques for "inexpensive" fast writer identification tasks of scanned hand-written documents "visually". The "inexpensive" refers to the efficiency of the identification process in terms of CPU cycles while preserving decent accuracy for preliminary identification. This is a comparative study of multiple algorithm combinations in a pattern recognition pipeline implemented in Java around an open-source Modular Audio Recognition Framework (MARF) that can do a lot more beyond audio. We present our preliminary experimental findings in such an identification task. We simulate "visual" identification by "looking" at the hand-written document as a whole rather than trying to extract fine-grained features out of it prior classification.

The notion of a difference hierarchy, first introduced by Hausdorff, plays an important role in many areas of mathematics, logic and theoretical computer science such as descriptive set theory, complexity theory, and the theory of regular languages and automata. From a lattice theoretic point of view, the difference hierarchy over a bounded distributive lattice stratifies the Boolean algebra generated by it according to the minimum length of difference chains required to describe the Boolean elements. While each Boolean element is given by a finite difference chain, there is no canonical such writing in general. We show that, relative to the filter completion, or equivalently, the lattice of closed upsets of the dual Priestley space, each Boolean element over the lattice has a canonical minimum length decomposition into a Hausdorff difference. As a corollary each Boolean element over a (co-)Heyting algebra has a canonical difference chain. With a further generalization of this result involving a directed family of adjunctions with meet-semilattices, we give an elementary proof of the fact that a regular language is given by a Boolean combination of purely universal sentences using arbitrary numerical predicates if and only if it is given by a Boolean combination of purely universal sentences using only regular numerical predicates.

The rare-earth material $\mathrm{LiHoF_4}$ is believed to be an experimental realization of the celebrated (dipolar) Ising model, and upon the inclusion of a transverse field $B_x$, an archetypal quantum Ising model. Moreover, by substituting the magnetic Ho ions by non-magnetic Y ions, disorder can be introduced into the system giving rise to a dipolar disordered magnet and at high disorders to a spin-glass. Indeed, this material has been scrutinized experimentally, numerically and theoretically over many decades with the aim of understanding various collective magnetic phenomena. One of the to-date open questions is the discrepancy between the experimental and theoretical $B_x -T$ phase diagram at low-fields and high temperatures. Here we propose a mechanism, backed by numerical results, that highlights the importance of quantum fluctuations induced by the off-diagonal dipolar terms, in determining the critical temperature of anisotropic dipolar magnets in the presence and in the absence of a transverse field. We thus show that the description as a simple Ising system is insufficient to quantitatively describe the full phase diagram of $\mathrm{LiHoF_4}$, for the pure as well as for the dilute system.

We study quantum Darwinism, the redundant recording of information about the preferred states of a decohering system by its environment, for an object illuminated by a blackbody. We calculate the quantum mutual information between the object and its photon environment for blackbodies that cover an arbitrary section of the sky. In particular, we demonstrate that more extended sources have a reduced ability to create redundant information about the system, in agreement with previous evidence that initial mixedness of an environment slows---but does not stop---the production of records. We also show that the qualitative results are robust for more general initial states of the system.

Let $K$ be a finite extension of the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers, and $\phi\in K(z)$ be a rational map of degree at least $2$. We prove that the $K$-Julia set of $\phi$ is the natural restriction of $\mathbb{C}_p$-Julia set, provided that the critical orbits are well-behaved. Moreover, under further assumption that $\phi$ is geometrically finite, we prove that the dynamics on the $K$-Julia set of $\phi$ is a countable state Markov shift.

We study the multi-channel Kondo model associated with an integrable higher-spin analogue of the anti-ferroelectric six-vertex model, which is constructed by inserting spin 1/2 to spin 1 lines: $... C^3 \otimes C^3 \otimes C^2 \otimes C^3 \otimes C^3 ... $. We formulate the problem in terms of representation theory of quantum affine algebra $U_q(hat{sl}_2)$. We derive an exact formula for the spontaneous staggered polarization for our model, which corresponds to Baxter`s formula for the six-vertex model.

In this paper, we address the issue of the generation of non-degenerate cross-polarization-entangled photon pairs using type-II periodically poled lithium niobate. We show that, by an appropriate engineering of the quasi-phase-matching grating, it is possible to simultaneously satisfy the conditions for two spontaneous parametric down-conversion processes, namely ordinary pump photon down-conversion to either extraordinary signal and ordinary idler paired photons, or to ordinary signal and extraordinary idler paired photons. In contrast to single type-II phase-matching, these two processes, when enabled together, can lead to the direct production of cross-polarization-entangled state for non degenerate signal and idler wavelengths. Such a scheme should be of great interest in applications requiring polarization-entangled non degenerate paired photons with, for instance, one of the entangled photons at an appropriate wavelength being used for local operation or for quantum storage in an atomic ensemble, and the other one at the typical wavelength of 1550 nm for propagation through an optical fiber.

In this paper, we focus on the self-supervised learning of visual correspondence using unlabeled videos in the wild. Our method simultaneously considers intra- and inter-video representation associations for reliable correspondence estimation. The intra-video learning transforms the image contents across frames within a single video via the frame pair-wise affinity. To obtain the discriminative representation for instance-level separation, we go beyond the intra-video analysis and construct the inter-video affinity to facilitate the contrastive transformation across different videos. By forcing the transformation consistency between intra- and inter-video levels, the fine-grained correspondence associations are well preserved and the instance-level feature discrimination is effectively reinforced. Our simple framework outperforms the recent self-supervised correspondence methods on a range of visual tasks including video object tracking (VOT), video object segmentation (VOS), pose keypoint tracking, etc. It is worth mentioning that our method also surpasses the fully-supervised affinity representation (e.g., ResNet) and performs competitively against the recent fully-supervised algorithms designed for the specific tasks (e.g., VOT and VOS).

The closed string model in the background gravity field and the antisymmetric B-field is considered as the bihamiltonian system in assumption,that string model is the integrable model for particular kind of the background fields. It is shown, that bihamiltonity is origin of two types of the T-duality of the closed string models. The dual nonlocal Poisson brackets, depending of the background fields and of their derivatives, are obtained. The integrability condition is formulated as the compatibility of the bihamoltonity condition and the Jacobi identity of the dual Poisson bracket. It is shown, that the dual brackets and dual hamiltonians can be obtained from the canonical (PB) and from the initial hamiltonian by imposing of the second kind constraints on the initial dynamical system, on the closed string model in the constant background fields, as example. The closed string model in the constant background fields is considered without constraints, with the second kind constraints and with first kind constraints as the B-chiral string. The two particles discrete closed string model is considered as two relativistic particle system to show the difference between the Gupta-Bleuler method of the quantization with the first kind constraints and the quantization of the Dirac bracket with the second kind constraints.

A spin-wave approach of the zero temperature superfluid-insulator transition for two-dimensional hard-core bosons in a random potential $\mu=\pm$ W is developed. While at the classical level there is no intervening phase between the Bose-condensed superfluid (SF) and the gapped disordered insulator, the introduction of quantum fluctuations leads to a much richer physics. Upon increasing the disorder strength W, the Bose-condensed fraction disappears first, before the SF. Then a gapless Bose-glass phase emerges over a finite region until the insulator appears. Furthermore, in the strongly disordered SF regime, a mobility edge in the spin-wave excitation spectrum is found at a finite frequency $\Omega_c$ decreasing with W, and presumably vanishing in the Bose-glass phase.

Let $a_{i1}x_1+\cdots+a_{ik}x_k=0$, $i\in[m]$ be a balanced homogeneous system of linear equations with coefficients $a_{ij}$ from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We say that a solution $x=(x_1,\ldots, x_k)$ with $x_1,\ldots, x_k\in \mathbb{F}_q^n$ is `generic' if every homogeneous balanced linear equation satisfied by $x$ is a linear combination of the given equations. We show that if the given system is `tame', subsets $S\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n$ without generic solutions must have exponentially small density. Here, the system is called tame if for every implied system the number of equations is less than half the number of used variables. Using a subspace sampling argument this also gives a `supersaturation result': there is a constant $c$ such that for $\epsilon>0$ sufficiently small, every subset $S\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n$ of size at least $q^{(1-\epsilon) n}$ contains $\Omega(q^{(k-m-\epsilon c)n})$ solutions as $n\to\infty$. For $q<4$ the tameness condition can be left out. Our main tool is a modification of the slice rank method to leverage the existence of many solutions in order to obtain high rank solutions.

Volume modifications to the binding of two-body systems in large cubic volumes of extent L depend upon the total momentum and exponentially upon the ratio of L to the size of the boosted system. Recent work by Bour et al determined the momentum dependence of the leading volume modifications to nonrelativistic systems with periodic boundary conditions imposed on the single-particle wavefunctions, enabling them to numerically determine the scattering of such bound states using a low-energy effective field theory and Luscher's finite-volume method. The calculation of bound nuclear systems directly from QCD using Lattice QCD has begun, and it is important to reduce the systematic uncertainty introduced into such calculations by the finite spatial extent of the gauge-field configurations. We extend the work of Bour et al from nonrelativistic quantum mechanics to quantum field theory by generalizing the work of Luscher and of Gottlieb and Rummukainen to boosted two-body bound states. The volume modifications to binding energies can be exponentially reduced from ~ e^{-kappa L}/L to ~ e^{-2 kappa L}/L in nonrelativistic systems (where kappa is the binding momentum of the state) by forming particular combinations of the binding energies determined in the four lowest-lying boosted systems. Relativistic corrections to this combination, and others, that violate the exponential reduction are determined. An analysis of what can be expected from Lattice QCD calculations of the deuteron is performed, the results of which are representative of a generic loosely bound system.

Condition-Invariant Semantic Segmentation

Adaptation of semantic segmentation networks to different visual conditions from those for which ground-truth annotations are available at training is vital for robust perception in autonomous cars and robots. However, previous work has shown that most feature-level adaptation methods, which employ adversarial training and are validated on synthetic-to-real adaptation, provide marginal gains in normal-to-adverse condition-level adaptation, being outperformed by simple pixel-level adaptation via stylization. Motivated by these findings, we propose to leverage stylization in performing feature-level adaptation by aligning the deep features extracted by the encoder of the network from the original and the stylized view of each input image with a novel feature invariance loss. In this way, we encourage the encoder to extract features that are invariant to the style of the input, allowing the decoder to focus on parsing these features and not on further abstracting from the specific style of the input. We implement our method, named Condition-Invariant Semantic Segmentation (CISS), on the top-performing domain adaptation architecture and demonstrate a significant improvement over previous state-of-the-art methods both on Cityscapes$\to$ACDC and Cityscapes$\to$Dark Zurich adaptation. In particular, CISS is ranked first among all published unsupervised domain adaptation methods on the public ACDC leaderboard. Our method is also shown to generalize well to domains unseen during training, outperforming competing domain adaptation approaches on BDD100K-night and Nighttime Driving. Code is publicly available at https://github.com/SysCV/CISS .

We consider unconstrained stochastic optimization problems with no available gradient information. Such problems arise in settings from derivative-free simulation optimization to reinforcement learning. We propose an adaptive sampling quasi-Newton method where we estimate the gradients of a stochastic function using finite differences within a common random number framework. We develop modified versions of a norm test and an inner product quasi-Newton test to control the sample sizes used in the stochastic approximations and provide global convergence results to the neighborhood of the optimal solution. We present numerical experiments on simulation optimization problems to illustrate the performance of the proposed algorithm. When compared with classical zeroth-order stochastic gradient methods, we observe that our strategies of adapting the sample sizes significantly improve performance in terms of the number of stochastic function evaluations required.

The assumption that a small point-like configuration does not interact with nucleons leads to a new set of sum rules that are interpreted as models of the baryon-nucleon interaction. These models are rendered semi-realistic by requiring consistency with data for cross section fluctuations in proton-proton diffractive collisions.

We develop a theory describing neutral atoms scattering at low energies in an optical lattice. We show that for a repulsive interaction, as the microscopic scattering length increases, the effective scattering amplitude approaches a limiting value which depends only on the lattice parameters. In the case of attractive interaction a geometric resonance occurs before reaching this limit. Close to the resonance, the effective interaction becomes repulsive and supports a weakly bound state, which can extend over several lattice sites.

The Hardy--Littlewood inequalities for multilinear forms on sequence spaces state that for all positive integers $m,n\geq2$ and all $m$-linear forms $T:\ell_{p_{1}}^{n}\times\cdots\times\ell_{p_{m}}^{n}\rightarrow\mathbb{K}$ ($\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$) there are constants $C_{m}\geq1$ (not depending on $n$) such that \[ \left( \sum_{j_{1},\ldots,j_{m}=1}^{n}\left\vert T(e_{j_{1}},\ldots,e_{j_{m}})\right\vert ^{\rho}\right) ^{\frac{1}{\rho}}\leq C_{m}\sup_{\left\Vert x_{1}\right\Vert ,\dots,\left\Vert x_{m}\right\Vert \leq 1}\left\vert T(x_{1},\dots,x_{m})\right\vert, \] where $\rho=\frac{2m}{m+1-2\left( \frac{1}{p_{1}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{p_{m}}\right) }$ if $0\leq\frac{1}{p_{1}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{p_{m}}\leq\frac{1}{2}$ or $\rho=\frac{1}{1-\left( \frac{1}{p_{1}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{p_{m}}\right)}$ if $\frac{1}{2}\leq\frac{1}{p_{1}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{p_{m}}<1$. Good estimates for the Hardy-Littlewood constants are, in general, associated to applications in Mathematics and even in Physics, but the exact behavior of these constants is still unknown. In this note we give some new contributions to the behavior of the constants in the case $\frac{1}{2}\leq\frac{1}{p_{1}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{p_{m}}<1$. As a consequence of our main result, we present a generalization and a simplified proof of a result due to Aron et al. on certain Hardy--Littlewood type inequalities.

Transport through a point contact is accurately modelled by assigning to the junction an ensemble of independent transport channels with possibly different transmissions. We here argue that for a series of two contacts, coherently coupled across an island, the transport channels are different from the ensembles that would describe each contact taken as stand-alone device. We further show that instead of two sets of channels with manifold cross-links over the island the double junction can be described by pairs of channels from both sides coherently coupled together, where each pair, however, has no coherent connection to the others. This finding will substantially simplify modelling transport by a Green's functions technique. Additional channels through only one junction may complete the picture. Finally we discuss how partial coherence across the island with an appropriate ansatz can be modelled in the same scheme.

Differential abundance tests in compositional data are essential and fundamental tasks in various biomedical applications, such as single-cell, bulk RNA-seq, and microbiome data analysis. However, because of the compositional constraint and the prevalence of zero counts in the data, differential abundance analysis in compositional data remains a complicated and unsolved statistical problem. This study introduces a new differential abundance test, the robust differential abundance (RDB) test, to address these challenges. Compared with existing methods, the RDB test is simple and computationally efficient, is robust to prevalent zero counts in compositional datasets, can take the data's compositional nature into account, and has a theoretical guarantee of controlling false discoveries in a general setting. Furthermore, in the presence of observed covariates, the RDB test can work with the covariate balancing techniques to remove the potential confounding effects and draw reliable conclusions. Finally, we apply the new test to several numerical examples using simulated and real datasets to demonstrate its practical merits.

A numerical approach to Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory is demonstrated and we review its applications to several examples of current interest in the research on superconductivity. This analysis also shows the applicability of the two-dimensional approach to thin superconductors and the re-defined effective GL parameter kappa. For two-gap superconductors, the conveniently written GL equations directly show that the magnetic behavior of the sample depends not just on the GL parameter of two bands, but also on the ratio of respective coherence lengths.

The nuclear mean-field potentials obtained in the Hartree-Fock method with different choices of the in-medium nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction have been used to study the equation of state (EOS) of the neutron star (NS) matter. The EOS of the uniform NS core has been calculated for the np$e\mu$ composition in the $\beta$-equilibrium at zero temperature, using version Sly4 of the Skyrme interaction as well as two density-dependent versions of the finite-range M3Y interaction (CDM3Y$n$ and M3Y-P$n$), and versions D1S and D1N of the Gogny interaction. Although the considered effective NN interactions were proven to be quite realistic in numerous nuclear structure and/or reaction studies, they give quite different behaviors of the symmetry energy of nuclear matter at supranuclear densities that lead to the \emph{soft} and \emph{stiff} scenarios discussed recently in the literature. Different EOS's of the NS core and the EOS of the NS crust given by the compressible liquid drop model have been used as input of the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov equations to study how the nuclear symmetry energy affects the model prediction of different NS properties, like the cooling process as well as the gravitational mass, radius, and moment of inertia.

High thermoelectric performance in oxides requires stable conductive materials that have suitable band structures. Here we show based on an analysis of the thermopower and related properties using first-principles calculations and Boltzmann transport theory that hole doped Cu2O may be such a material. We find that hole-doped Cu2O has a high thermopower of above 200 microV/K even with doping levels as high as 5.5x10 20 cm-3 at 500 K, mainly attributed to the heavy valence bands of Cu2O. This is reminiscent of the cobaltate family of high performance oxide thermoelectrics and implies that hole-doped Cu2O could be an excellent thermoelectric material if suitably doped.

We discuss the dynamics of a superparticle in a superspace whose isometry is generated by the superalgebra OSp(1|4) or its central-charge contraction. Extra coordinates of the superspace associated with tensorial central charges are shown to describe spin degrees of freedom of the superparticle, so quantum states form an infinite tower of (half)-integer helicities. A peculiar feature of the model is that it admits BPS states which preserve 3/4 of target-space supersymmetries.

A scalar theory of gravity extending Newtonian gravity to include field energy as its source is developed. The physical implications of the theory are probed through its spherically symmetric (source) solutions. The aim is to demonstrate rational physical model building, together with physical and experimental checks of correctness. The theory discussed here was originally considered by Einstein prior to his introduction of general relativity.

Deep convolutional neural network (CNN) based models are vulnerable to the adversarial attacks. One of the possible reasons is that the embedding space of CNN based model is sparse, resulting in a large space for the generation of adversarial samples. In this study, we propose a method, denoted as Dynamic Feature Aggregation, to compress the embedding space with a novel regularization. Particularly, the convex combination between two samples are regarded as the pivot for aggregation. In the embedding space, the selected samples are guided to be similar to the representation of the pivot. On the other side, to mitigate the trivial solution of such regularization, the last fully-connected layer of the model is replaced by an orthogonal classifier, in which the embedding codes for different classes are processed orthogonally and separately. With the regularization and orthogonal classifier, a more compact embedding space can be obtained, which accordingly improves the model robustness against adversarial attacks. An averaging accuracy of 56.91% is achieved by our method on CIFAR-10 against various attack methods, which significantly surpasses a solid baseline (Mixup) by a margin of 37.31%. More surprisingly, empirical results show that, the proposed method can also achieve the state-of-the-art performance for out-of-distribution (OOD) detection, due to the learned compact feature space. An F1 score of 0.937 is achieved by the proposed method, when adopting CIFAR-10 as in-distribution (ID) dataset and LSUN as OOD dataset. Code is available at https://github.com/HaozheLiu-ST/DynamicFeatureAggregation.

We propose a multidimensional quantum information encoding approach based on temporal modulation of single photons, where the Hilbert space can be spanned by an in-principle infinite set of orthonormal temporal profiles. We analyze two specific realizations of such modulation schemes, and show that error rate per symbol can be smaller than 1% for practical implementations. Temporal modulation may enable multidimensional quantum communication over the existing fiber optical infrastructure, as well as provide an avenue for probing high-dimensional entanglement approaching the continuous limit.

The properties of artificially grown thin films are often strongly affected by the dynamic relationship between surface growth processes and subsurface structure. Coherent mixing of X-ray signals promises to provide an approach to better understand such processes. Here, we demonstrate the continuously variable mixing of surface and bulk scattering signals during real-time studies of sputter deposition of a-Si and a-WiS2 films by controlling the X-ray penetration and escape depths in coherent grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (Co-GISAXS). Under conditions where the X-ray signal comes from both the growth surface and the thin film bulk, oscillations in temporal correlations arise from coherent interference between scattering from stationary bulk features and from the advancing surface. We also observe evidence that elongated bulk features propagate upward at the same velocity as the surface. Additionally, a highly surface sensitive mode is demonstrated that can access the surface dynamics independently of the subsurface structure.

We study spherically symmetric black hole solutions in a four-parameter Einstein-Cartan-type class of theories, called "torsion bigravity". These theories offer a geometric framework (with a metric and an independent torsionfull connection) for a modification of Einstein's theory that has the same spectrum as bimetric gravity models. In addition to an Einsteinlike massless spin-2 excitation, there is a massive spin-2 one (of range $\kappa^{-1}$) coming from the torsion sector, rather than from a second metric. We prove the existence of three broad classes of spherically-symmetric black hole solutions in torsion bigravity. First, the Schwarzschild solution defines an asymptotically-flat torsionless black hole for all values of the parameters. [And we prove that one cannot deform a Schwarzschild solution, at the linearized level, by adding an infinitesimal torsion hair.] Second, when considering finite values of the range, we find that there exist non-asymptotically-flat torsion-hairy black holes in a large domain of parameter space. Third, we find that, in the limit of infinite range, there exists a two-parameter family of asymptotically flat torsion-hairy black holes. The latter black hole solutions give an interesting example of non-Einsteinian (but still purely geometric) black hole structures which might be astrophysically relevant when considering a range of cosmological size.

Error Bounds for Control Constrained Singularly Perturbed Linear-Quadratic Optimal Control Problems

We present a methodology for bounding the error term of an asymptotic solution to a singularly perturbed optimal control (SPOC) problem whose exact solution is known to be computationally intractable. In previous works, reduced or computationally tractable problems that are no longer dependent on the singular perturbation parameter $\epsilon$, where $\epsilon$ represents a small, non-negative number, have provided asymptotic error bounds of the form $O(\epsilon)$. Specifically, the optimal solution $\bar{V}$ of the reduced problem has been shown to be asymptotically equivalent in $\epsilon$ to the optimal solution $V(\epsilon)$ of the singularly perturbed problem in the sense that $|V(\epsilon)-\bar{V}| =O(\epsilon)$ as $\epsilon \rightarrow 0$. In this paper, we improve on this result by incorporating a duality theory into the SPOC problem and derive an upper bound $\chi_u(\epsilon)$ and lower bound $\chi_l(\epsilon)$ of $V(\epsilon)$ that hold for arbitrary $\epsilon$ and, furthermore, satisfy the inequality $|\chi_u(\epsilon)-\chi_l(\epsilon)| \leq C \epsilon$ for small $\epsilon$, with the constant $C$ determined. We carry out numerical experiments to illustrate the computational savings obtained for the upper and lower bound. In particular, we generate a set of 50 random SPOC problems of a specific form and show that for $\epsilon$ smaller than $10^{-2}$, it becomes faster, on average, to solve for the bounds rather than the SPOC problem and for $\epsilon=10^{-5}$, the computational time for the upper and lower bounds is approximately 20 times faster, on average, than that of the SPOC problem.

Observations were conducted using the Focal Reductor FoReRo-2 of the 2-meter RCC telescope of the National Astronomical Observatory (NAO) Rozhen. The observed change of the position angle (P.A.) corresponds to mean rotation of the plane of polarization of 6.23 deg/day, in good agreement with previous measurements. An indication of a correlation between the change of brightness in R-band and the change in the degree of polarization is also observed.

Pole trajectories connecting light and heavy scalar mesons, both broad resonances and quasi-bound states, are computed employing a simple coupled-channel model. Instead of varying the coupling constant as in previous work, quark and meson masses are continuously changed, so as to have one scalar meson evolve smoothly into another with different flavor(s). In particular, it is shown, among several other cases, how the still controversial K0*(800) turns into the established chi_c0, via the disputed D_s(2317). Moreover, a chi'_c0(3946) is predicted, which may correspond to the recently observed Y(3943) resonance. These results lend further support to our unified dynamical picture of all scalar mesons, as unitarized q-qbar states with important two-meson components.

Beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerators typically use the external injection scheme to ensure controllable beam quality at injection. However, the externally injected witness bunch may exhibit a non-Gaussian transverse density distribution. Using particle-in-cell simulations, we show that the common beam quality factors, such as the normalized RMS emittance and beam radius, do not strongly depend on the initial transverse shapes of the witness beam. Nonetheless, a beam with a highly-peaked transverse spatial profile can achieve a higher fraction of the total beam charge in the core. The same effect can be seen when the witness beam's transverse momentum profile has a peaked non-Gaussian distribution. In addition, we find that an initially non-axisymmetric beam becomes symmetric due to the interaction with the plasma wakefield, and so it does not cause a detrimental effect for the beam acceleration.

We present a generalized linear sigma model that includes both scalar and pseudoscalar glueballs in addition to a quark-antiquark as well as a four-quark chiral nonet. Utilizing the axial and trace anomalies of QCD (at the effective mesonic level), we aim to develope the most general structure of the Lagrangian which can be used to study the interaction of quarkonia with glueballs. We then study the effect of scalar glueball on the vacuum of the model by considering a decoupling limit in which the glueball fields are decoupled from quarkonia. This determines the properties of the pure scalar glueball and builds a practical foundation for determining the model parameters when the interactions are turned on.

Boundary correlation functions provide insight into the emergence of an effective geometry in higher spin gravity duals of O(N) or U(N) symmetric field theories. On a compact manifold, the singlet constraint leads to nontrivial dynamics at finite temperature and large N phase transitions even at vanishing 't Hooft coupling. At low temperature, the leading behavior of boundary two-point functions is consistent with propagation through a bulk thermal anti de Sitter space. Above the phase transition, the two-point function shows significant departure from thermal AdS space and the emergence of localized black hole like objects in the bulk. In adjoint models, these objects appear at length scales of order of the AdS radius, consistent with a Hawking-Page transition, but in vector models they are parametrically larger than the AdS scale. In low dimensions, we find another crossover at large distances beyond which the correlation function again takes a thermal AdS form, albeit with a temperature dependent normalization factor.

In this work, we study and quantify properties of strong-field small-scale convection and compare observed properties with those predicted by numerical simulations. We analyze spectropolarimetric 630.25 nm data from a unipolar ephemeral region near sun center. We use line-of-sight velocities and magnetic field measurements obtained with Milne-Eddington inversion techniques along with measured continuum intensities and Stokes V amplitude asymmetry at a spatial resolution of 0.15 arcseconds to establish statistical relations between the measured quantities. We also study these properties for different types of distinct magnetic features, such as micropores, bright points, ribbons, flowers and strings. We present the first direct observations of a small-scale granular magneto-convection pattern within extended regions of strong (more than 600 G average) magnetic field. Along the boundaries of the flux concentrations we see mostly downflows and asymmetric Stokes V profiles, consistent with synthetic line profiles calculated from MHD simulations. We note the frequent occurrence of bright downflows along these boundaries. In the interior of the flux concentrations, we observe an up/down flow pattern that we identify as small-scale magnetoconvection, appearing similar to that of field-free granulation but with scales 4 times smaller. Measured RMS velocities are 70% of those of nearby field-free granulation, even though the average radiative flux is not reduced. The interiors of these flux concentrations are dominated by upflows.

Aims. The properties of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) RX J0852.0-4622 are theoretically analysed. Methods. An explicitly time-dependent, nonlinear kinetic model of cosmic ray (CR) acceleration in SNRs is used to describe the properties of SNR RX J0852.0-4622, the accelerated CRs and the nonthermal emission. The source is assumed to be at a distance of ~1 kpc in the wind bubble of a massive progenitor star. An estimate of the thermal X-ray flux in such a configuration is given. Results. We find that the overall synchrotron spectrum of RX J0852.0-4622 as well as the filamentary structures in hard X-rays lead to an amplified magnetic field B > 100 muG in the SNR interior. This implies that the leptonic very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission is suppressed, and that the VHE gamma-rays are hadronically dominated. The energy spectrum of protons produced over the life-time of the remnant until now may well reach ''knee'' energies. The derived gamma-ray morphology is consistent with the H.E.S.S. measurements. The amount of energy in energetic particles corresponds to about 35% of the hydrodynamic explosion energy. A remaining uncertainty concerns the thermal X-ray flux at 1 keV. A rough estimate, possibly not quite appropriate for the assumed wind bubble configuration, results in it being larger than the nonthermal flux at this energy. Conclusions. It is concluded that this SNR expanding into the wind bubble of a massive star in a dense gas environment can be a hadronic gamma-ray source that is consistent with all existing multi-wavelength constraints, except possibly the thermal X-ray emission.

Frequency non-selective time-selective multiple access channels in which transmitters can freely choose their power control policy are considered. The individual objective of the transmitters is to maximize their averaged energy-efficiency. For this purpose, a transmitter has to choose a power control policy that is, a sequence of power levels adapted to the channel variations. This problem can be formulated as a stochastic game with discounting for which there exists a theorem characterizing all the equilibrium utilities (equilibrium utility region). As in its general formulation, this theorem relies on global channel state information (CSI), it is shown that some points of the utility region can be reached with individual CSI. Interestingly, time-sharing based solutions, which are usually considered for centralized policies, appear to be part of the equilibrium solutions. This analysis is illustrated by numerical results providing further insights to the problem under investigation.

Supernova ejecta and stellar winds are believed to produce interstellar dust grains with relatively large sizes. Smaller grains can be produced via the shattering of large grains that have been stochastically accelerated. To understand this stochastic acceleration, we have implemented novel magnetohydrodynamic(MHD)-particle-in-cell(PIC) methods into the astrophysical fluid code RAMSES. We treat dust grains as a set of massive ``superparticles'' that experience aerodynamic drag and Lorentz force. We subject our code to a range of numerical tests designed to validate our method in different physical conditions, as well as to illustrate possible mechanisms by which grains can be accelerated. As a final test as well as a foundation for future work, we present the results of decaying dusty MHD turbulence simulations with grain parameters chosen to resemble 1-2 $\mu$m grains in typical cold neutral medium conditions. We find that in these conditions, these grains can be effectively accelerated to well beyond their shattering velocities. This is true for both electrically charged and neutral grains. While the peak of the gas-grain relative drift velocity distribution is higher for neutral grains, the drift velocity distribution of charged grains exhibits an extended exponential tail out to much greater velocities. Even so, the shapes of the distributions are such that the extra gas-grain coupling provided by the Lorentz force offers grains relative protection from shattering. We also discuss the connection between our simulations and the relatively pristine ~$\mu$m sized presolar grains that do not appear to have undergone significant wear in their lifetimes.

During the usage phase, a technical product system is in permanent interaction with its environment. This interaction can lead to failures that significantly endanger the safety of the user and negatively affect the quality and reliability of the product. Conventional methods of failure analysis focus on the technical product system. The interaction of the product with its environment in the usage phase is not sufficiently considered, resulting in undetected potential failures of the product that lead to complaints. For this purpose, a methodology for failure identification is developed, which is continuously improved through product usage scenarios. The use cases are modelled according to a systems engineering approach with four views. The linking of the product system, physical effects, events and environmental factors enable the analysis of fault chains. These four parameters are subject to great complexity and must be systematically analysed using databases and expert knowledge. The scenarios are continuously updated by field data and complaints. The new approach can identify potential failures in a more systematic and holistic way. Complaints provide direct input on the scenarios. Unknown, previously unrecognized events can be systematically identified through continuous improvement. The complexity of the relationship between the product system and its environmental factors can thus be adequately taken into account in product development. Keywords: failure analysis, methodology, product development, systems engineering, scenario analysis, scenario improvement, environmental factors, product environment, continuous improvement.

The many-body Hamiltonians and other fermionic physical observables are expressed in terms of fermionic creation and annihilation operators, which form the algebra of canonical anti-commutation relations (CAR). In this work we use a canonical isomorphism between CAR and $\mathcal M_{2^\infty}$ algebras to derive analytic matrix representations of many-fermion operators. Code-lines implementing these matrix representations are supplied and Hubbard-type Hamiltonians are worked out explicitly.

We show that the anomalous temperature scaling of five distinct transport quantities in the strange metal regime of the cuprate superconductors can be reproduced with only two nontrivial critical exponents. The quantities are: (i) the electrical resistivity, (ii) the Hall angle, (iii) the Hall Lorenz ratio, (iv) the magnetoresistance and (v) the thermopower. The exponents are the dynamical critical exponent z = 4/3 and an anomalous scaling dimension Phi = -2/3 for the charge density operator.

Purpose: We propose a 2.5D deep learning neural network (DLNN) to automatically classify thigh muscle into 11 classes and evaluate its classification accuracy over 2D and 3D DLNN when trained with limited datasets. Enables operator invariant quantitative assessment of the thigh muscle volume change with respect to the disease progression. Materials and methods: Retrospective datasets consist of 48 thigh volume (TV) cropped from CT DICOM images. Cropped volumes were aligned with femur axis and resample in 2 mm voxel-spacing. Proposed 2.5D DLNN consists of three 2D U-Net trained with axial, coronal and sagittal muscle slices respectively. A voting algorithm was used to combine the output of U-Nets to create final segmentation. 2.5D U-Net was trained on PC with 38 TV and the remaining 10 TV were used to evaluate segmentation accuracy of 10 classes within Thigh. The result segmentation of both left and right thigh were de-cropped to original CT volume space. Finally, segmentation accuracies were compared between proposed DLNN and 2D/3D U-Net. Results: Average segmentation DSC score accuracy of all classes with 2.5D U-Net as 91.18% and Average Surface distance (ASD) accuracy as 0.84 mm. We found, mean DSC score for 2D U-Net was 3.3% lower than the that of 2.5D U-Net and mean DSC score of 3D U-Net was 5.7% lower than that of 2.5D U-Net when trained with same datasets. Conclusion: We achieved a faster computationally efficient and automatic segmentation of thigh muscle into 11 classes with reasonable accuracy. Enables quantitative evaluation of muscle atrophy with disease progression.

Azimuthal correlation studies of heavy-flavour particles with charged particles in p--Pb collisions can give an insight into the cold nuclear matter effects \cite{Andronic:2015wma} on heavy-quark production and hadronization into heavy-flavour jets. Multiplicity-dependent measurements of angular correlations of heavy-flavour particles with charged hadrons allow us to investigate the collective behavior of the system and the initial state effects on heavy flavour hadron production. In addition, they can reveal possible modifications of the heavy-quark fragmentation and hadronization at different multiplicities. We present ALICE measurements of azimuthal correlations of prompt D-mesons with charged hadrons as a function of the multiplicity in p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}$ = 5.02TeV. Moreover, the elliptic flow ($v_2$) of heavy-flavour hadron decay electrons in high-multiplicity p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}$= 5.02 TeV, obtained using correlations with charged particles, is reported.

Potential for measurement of the tensor electric and magnetic polarizabilities of the deuteron in storage-ring experiments with polarized beams

Measurement of the tensor electric and magnetic polarizabilities of the deuteron is of great interest, especially in connection with the possibilities of COSY and GSI. These polarizabilities can be measured in storage rings by the frozen spin method providing a disappearance of g-2 precession. This method will be used in the planned deuteron electric-dipole-moment experiment in storage rings. The tensor electric polarizability of the deuteron significantly influences the buildup of the vertical polarization in the above experiment. The spin interactions depending on the electric dipole moment, the tensor electric polarizability, and main systematical errors caused by field misalignments have very different symmetries. For the considered experimental conditions, the sensitivity to the deuteron EDM of $1\times10^{-29} e\cdot$cm corresponds to measuring the both of tensor polarizabilities with an accuracy of $\delta\alpha_T\approx\delta\beta_T\approx5\times10^{-42}$ cm$^3$. This conservative estimate can be improved by excluding the systematical error caused by the field instability which is negligible for the measurement of the tensor polarizabilities. To find the tensor magnetic polarizability, the horizontal components of the polarization vector should be measured.

We present a large-scale study of the X-ray properties and near-IR-to-radio SEDs of submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) detected at 1.1mm with the AzTEC instrument across a ~1.2 square degree area of the sky. Combining deep 2-4 Ms Chandra data with Spitzer IRAC/MIPS and VLA data within the GOODS-N/S and COSMOS fields, we find evidence for AGN activity in ~14 percent of 271 AzTEC SMGs, ~28 percent considering only the two GOODS fields. Through X-ray spectral modeling and SED fitting using Monte Carlo Markov Chain techniques to Siebenmorgen et al. (2004) (AGN) and Efstathiou et al. (2000) (starburst) templates, we find that while star formation dominates the IR emission, with SFRs ~100-1000 M_sun/yr, the X-ray emission for most sources is almost exclusively from obscured AGNs, with column densities in excess of 10^23 cm^-2. Only for ~6 percent of our sources do we find an X-ray-derived SFR consistent with NIR-to-radio SED derived SFRs. Inclusion of the X-ray luminosities as a prior to the NIR-to-radio SED effectively sets the AGN luminosity and SFR, preventing significant contribution from the AGN template. Our SED modeling further shows that the AGN and starburst templates typically lack the required 1.1 mm emission necessary to match observations, arguing for an extended, cool dust component. The cross correlation function between the full samples of X-ray sources and SMGs in these fields does not indicate a strong correlation between the two populations at large scales, suggesting that SMGs and AGNs do not necessarily trace the same underlying large scale structure. Combined with the remaining X-ray-dim SMGs, this suggests that sub-mm bright sources may evolve along multiple tracks, with X-ray-detected SMGs representing transitionary objects between periods of high star formation and AGN activity while X-ray-faint SMGs represent a brief starburst phase of more normal galaxies.

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\Y$ a $G$-gerbe over an orbifold $\B$. A disconnected orbifold $\hat{\Y}$ and a flat U(1)-gerbe $c$ on $\hat{\Y}$ is canonically constructed from $\Y$. Motivated by a proposal in physics, we study a mathematical duality between the geometry of the $G$-gerbe $\Y$ and the geometry of $\hat{\Y}$ {\em twisted by} $c$. We prove several results verifying this duality in the contexts of noncommutative geometry and symplectic topology. In particular, we prove that the category of sheaves on $\Y$ is equivalent to the category of $c$-twisted sheaves on $\hat{\Y}$. When $\Y$ is symplectic, we show, by a combination of techniques from noncommutative geometry and symplectic topology, that the Chen-Ruan orbifold cohomology of $\Y$ is isomorphic to the $c$-twisted orbifold cohomology of $\hat{\Y}$ as graded algebras.

Water clusters embedding a nitric acid molecule HNO3(H2O)_{n=1-10} are investigated via electrostatic deflection of a molecular beam. We observe large paraelectric susceptibilities that greatly exceed the electronic polarizability, revealing the contribution of permanent dipole moments. The moments derived from the data are also significantly higher than those of pure water clusters. An enhancement in the susceptibility for n=5,6 and a rise in cluster abundances setting in at n=6 suggest that dissociation of the solvated acid molecule into ions takes place in this size range.

Radio relics have been discovered in many galaxy clusters. They are believed to trace shock fronts induced by cluster mergers. Cosmological simulations allow us to study merger shocks in detail since the intra-cluster medium is heated by shock dissipation. Using high resolution cosmological simulations, identifying shock fronts and applying a parametric model for the radio emission allows us to simulate the formation of radio relics. We analyze a simulated shock front in detail. We find a rather broad Mach number distribution. The Mach number affects strongly the number density of relativistic electrons in the downstream area, hence, the radio luminosity varies significantly across the shock surface. The abundance of radio relics can be modeled with the help of the radio power probability distribution which aims at predicting radio relic number counts. Since the actual electron acceleration efficiency is not known, predictions for the number counts need to be normalized by the observed number of radio relics. For the characteristics of upcoming low frequency surveys we find that about thousand relics are awaiting discovery.

The increasing difficulties in financing the welfare state and in particular public retirement pensions have been one of the outcomes both of the decrease of fertility and birth rates combined with the increase of life expectancy. The dynamics of retirement pensions are usually studied in Economics using overlapping generation models. These models are based on simplifying assumptions like the use of a representative agent to ease the problem of tractability. Alternatively, we propose to use agent-based modelling (ABM), relaxing the need for those assumptions and enabling the use of interacting and heterogeneous agents assigning special importance to the study of inter-generational relations. We treat pension dynamics both in economics and political perspectives. The model we build, following the ODD protocol, will try to understand the dynamics of choice of public versus private retirement pensions resulting from the conflicting preferences of different agents but also from the cooperation between them. The aggregation of these individual preferences is done by voting. We combine a microsimulation approach following the evolution of synthetic populations along time, with the ABM approach studying the interactions between the different agent types. Our objective is to depict the conditions for the survival of the public pensions system emerging from the relation between egoistic and altruistic individual and collective behaviours.

Lattice decomposition of modules

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
The first aim of this work is to characterize when the lattice of all submodules of a module is a direct product of two lattices. In particular, which decompositions of a module $M$ produce these decompositions: the \emph{lattice decompositions}. In a first \textit{\'etage} this can be done using endomorphisms of $M$, which produce a decomposition of the ring $\textrm{End}_R(M)$ as a product of rings, i.e., they are central idempotent endomorphisms. But since not every central idempotent endomorphism produces a lattice decomposition, the classical theory is not of application. In a second step we characterize when a particular module $M$ has a lattice decomposition; this can be done, in the commutative case in a simple way using the support, $\textrm{Supp}(M)$, of $M$; but, in general, it is not so easy. Once we know when a module decomposes, we look for characterizing its decompositions. We show that a good framework for this study, and its generalizations, could be provided by the category $\sigma[M]$, the smallest Grothendieck subcategory of $\textbf{Mod}-{R}$ containing $M$.

This model is a much needed tool for optimizing and understanding the performance of these laser systems.

Pervasive cross-section dependence is increasingly recognized as a characteristic of economic data and the approximate factor model provides a useful framework for analysis. Assuming a strong factor structure where $\Lop\Lo/N^\alpha$ is positive definite in the limit when $\alpha=1$, early work established convergence of the principal component estimates of the factors and loadings up to a rotation matrix. This paper shows that the estimates are still consistent and asymptotically normal when $\alpha\in(0,1]$ albeit at slower rates and under additional assumptions on the sample size. The results hold whether $\alpha$ is constant or varies across factor loadings. The framework developed for heterogeneous loadings and the simplified proofs that can be also used in strong factor analysis are of independent interest.

Introductory physics lab instruction is undergoing a transformation, with increasing emphasis on developing experimentation and critical thinking skills. These changes present a need for standardized assessment instruments to determine the degree to which students develop these skills through instructional labs. In this article, we present the development and validation of the Physics Lab Inventory of Critical thinking (PLIC). We define critical thinking as the ability to use data and evidence to decide what to trust and what to do. The PLIC is a 10-question, closed-response assessment that probes student critical thinking skills in the context of physics experimentation. Using interviews and data from 5584 students at 29 institutions, we demonstrate, through qualitative and quantitative means, the validity and reliability of the instrument at measuring student critical thinking skills. This establishes a valuable new assessment instrument for instructional labs.

The nontrivial structure of the neutrino mass matrix, suggested by the recent Super-Kamiokande results and data from other neutrino experiments, can be reproduced in R-parity-violating supersymmetric theories. This requires sets of products of R-parity-violating trilinear couplings to take appropriately chosen values. It is shown that the existing constraints on these couplings are satisfied by these choices.

In this paper we consider the fractional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $$\varepsilon^{2s}(-\Delta)^s v+ V(x) v= f(v), \quad x \in \mathbb{R}^N$$ where $s \in (0,1)$, $N \geq 2$, $V \in C(\mathbb{R}^N,\mathbb{R})$ is a positive potential and $f$ is a nonlinearity satisfying Berestycki-Lions type conditions. For $\varepsilon>0$ small, we prove the existence of at least $\rm{cupl}(K)+1$ positive solutions, where $K$ is a set of local minima in a bounded potential well and $\rm{cupl}(K)$ denotes the cup-length of $K$. By means of a variational approach, we analyze the topological difference between two levels of an indefinite functional in a neighborhood of expected solutions. Since the nonlocality comes in the decomposition of the space directly, we introduce a new fractional center of mass, via a suitable seminorm. Some other delicate aspects arise strictly related to the presence of the nonlocal operator. By using regularity results based on fractional De Giorgi classes, we show that the found solutions decay polynomially and concentrate around some point of $K$ for $\varepsilon$ small.

This thesis is devoted to the proof of a theorem showing the existence of a closed model category structure for weakly enriched categories. It requires first of all the definitions of weakly enriched categories and equivalences of weakly enriched categories such that these definitions recover some existing notions of higher order weak categories, for example Segal categories, Tamsamani n-categories and strict n-categories. In order to prove our theorem, we elaborate a theory of plans for cell addition following the approach of the small object argument a la Quillen. We conclude this work with the proof that our theorem recovers the case of Segal categories. This last result requires a fundamental groupoid-geometric realization adjunction between Segal groupoids and topological spaces.

Currently, most top-performing text detection networks tend to employ fixed-size anchor boxes to guide the search for text instances. They usually rely on a large amount of anchors with different scales to discover texts in scene images, thus leading to high computational cost. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end box-based text detector with scale-adaptive anchors, which can dynamically adjust the scales of anchors according to the sizes of underlying texts by introducing an additional scale regression layer. The proposed scale-adaptive anchors allow us to use a few number of anchors to handle multi-scale texts and therefore significantly improve the computational efficiency. Moreover, compared to discrete scales used in previous methods, the learned continuous scales are more reliable, especially for small texts detection. Additionally, we propose Anchor convolution to better exploit necessary feature information by dynamically adjusting the sizes of receptive fields according to the learned scales. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed detector is fast, taking only $0.28$ second per image, while outperforming most state-of-the-art methods in accuracy.

Normal-incidence transmission and dispersion properties of optical multilayers and one-dimensional stepwise potential barriers in the non-tunneling regime are analytically investigated. The optical paths of every constituent layer in a multilayer structure, as well as the parameters of every step of the stepwise potential barrier, are constrained by a generalized quarter-wave condition. No other restrictions on the structure geometry is imposed, i.e., the layers are arranged arbitrarily. We show that the density of states (DOS) spectra of the multilayer or barrier in question are subject to integral conservation rules similar to the Barnett-Loudon sum rule but ocurring within a finite frequency or energy interval. In the optical case, these frequency intervals are regular. For the potential barriers, only non-periodic energy intervals can be present in the spectrum of any given structure, and only if the parameters of constituent potential steps are properly chosen. Abstract The integral conservation relations derived analytically have also been verified numerically. The relations can be used in dispersion-engineered multilayer-based devices, e.g., ultrashort pulse compressors or ultracompact optical delay lines, as well as to design multiple-quantum-well electronic heterostructures with engineered DOS.

Recent developments in synthetic and supramolecular chemistry have created opportunities to design organic systems with tailored nanoscale structure for various technological applications. A key application area is the capture of light energy and its conversion into electrochemical or chemical forms for photovoltaic or sensing applications. In this work we consider cylindrical assemblies of chromophores that model structures produced by several supramolecular techniques. Our study is especially guided by the versatile structures produced by virus-templated assembly. We use a multi-objective optimization framework to determine design principles and limitations in light harvesting performance for such assemblies, both in the presence and absence of disorder. We identify a fundamental trade-off in cylindrical assemblies that is encountered when attempting to maximize both efficiency of energy transfer and absorption bandwidth. We also rationalize the optimal design strategies and provide explanations for why various structures provide optimal performance. Most importantly, we find that the optimal design strategies depend on the amount of energetic and structural disorder in the system. The aim of these studies is to develop a program of quantum-informed rational design for construction of organic assemblies that have the same degree of tailored nanoscale structure as biological photosynthetic light harvesting complexes, and also have the potential to reproduce their remarkable light harvesting performance.

Positron scattering and annihilation on noble gas atoms below the positronium formation threshold is studied ab initio using many-body theory methods. The many-body theory provides a near-complete understanding of the positron-noble-gas-atom system at these energies and yields accurate numerical results. It accounts for positron-atom and electron-positron correlations, e.g., polarization of the atom by the incident positron and the non-perturbative process of virtual positronium formation. These correlations have a large effect on the scattering dynamics and result in a strong enhancement of the annihilation rates compared to the independent-particle mean-field description. Computed elastic scattering cross sections are found to be in good agreement with recent experimental results and Kohn variational and convergent close-coupling calculations. The calculated values of the annihilation rate parameter $Z_{\rm eff}$ (effective number of electrons participating in annihilation) rise steeply along the sequence of noble gas atoms due to the increasing strength of the correlation effects, and agree well with experimental data.

In this paper we show that there is a Lipatov bound for the radius of convergence for superficially divergent one-particle irreducible Green functions in a renormalizable quantum field theory if there is such a bound for the superficially convergent ones. The radius of convergence turns out to be ${\rm min}\{\rho,1/b_1\}$, where $\rho$ is the bound on the convergent ones, the instanton radius, and $b_1$ the first coefficient of the $\beta$-function.

The NuSTAR serendipitous survey has already uncovered a large number of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), providing new information about the composition of the Cosmic X-ray Background. For the AGN off the Galactic plane, it has been possible to use the existing X-ray archival data to improve source localizations, identify optical counterparts, and classify the AGN with optical spectroscopy. However, near the Galactic Plane, better X-ray positions are necessary to achieve optical or near-IR identifications due to the higher levels of source crowding. Thus, we have used observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory to obtain the best possible X-ray positions. With eight observations, we have obtained coverage for 19 NuSTAR serendips within 12 deg of the plane. One or two Chandra sources are detected within the error circle of 15 of the serendips, and we report on these sources and search for optical counterparts. For one source (NuSTAR J202421+3350.9), we obtained a new optical spectrum and detected the presence of hydrogen emission lines. The source is Galactic, and we argue that it is likely a Cataclysmic Variable. For the other sources, the Chandra positions will enable future classifications in order to place limits on faint Galactic populations, including high-mass X-ray binaries and magnetars.

The Millennium N-body simulation and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey seventh data release (SDSS DR7) galaxy and galaxy group catalogues are compared to study the properties of galaxy groups and the distribution of galaxies in groups. We construct mock galaxy group catalogues for a Millennium semi-analytical galaxy catalogue by using the same friends-of-friends method, which was used by Tago et al to analyse the SDSS data. We analyse in detail the group luminosities, group richnesses, virial radii, sizes of groups and their rms velocities for four volume-limited samples from observations and simulations. Our results show that the spatial densities of groups agree within one order of magnitude in all samples with a rather good agreement between the mock catalogues and observations. All group property distributions have similar shapes and amplitudes for richer groups. For galaxy pairs and small groups, the group properties for observations and simulations are clearly different. In addition, the spatial distribution of galaxies in small groups is different: at the outskirts of the groups the galaxy number distributions do not agree, although the agreement is relatively good in the inner regions. Differences in the distributions are mainly due to the observational limitations in the SDSS sample and to the problems in the semi-analytical methods that produce too compact and luminous groups.

In this paper, we introduce a new approach to non-lightlike curve pairs by using integral curves in Minkowski 3-space. We consider direction curve and donor curve to study non-lightlike curve couples such as involute-evolute curves, Mannheim partner curves and Bertrand partner curves. We obtain new methods to construct partner curves of a unit speed non-lightlike curve and give some applications related to helices and slant helices.

We generalize Bonahon-Wong's $\mathrm{SL}_2$-quantum trace map to the setting of $\mathrm{SL}_3$. More precisely, given a non-zero complex parameter $q=e^{2 \pi i \hbar}$, we associate to each isotopy class of framed oriented links $K$ in a thickened punctured surface $\mathfrak{S} \times (0, 1)$ a Laurent polynomial $\mathrm{Tr}_\lambda^q(K) = \mathrm{Tr}_\lambda^q(K)(X_i^q)$ in $q$-deformations $X_i^q$ of the Fock-Goncharov $\mathcal{X}$-coordinates for higher Teichm\"{u}ller space. This construction depends on a choice $\lambda$ of ideal triangulation of the surface $\mathfrak{S}$. Along the way, we propose a definition for a $\mathrm{SL}_n$-version of this invariant.

We combine the kinematics of 159 globular clusters (GCs) provided by the Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) with other observational data to classify the GCs, and to estimate the mass of the Milky Way (MW). We use the age-metallicity relation, integrals of motion, action space and the GC orbits to identify the GCs as either formed in-situ (Bulge and Disk) or ex situ (via accretion). We find that $45.3\%$ have formed in situ, $38.4\%$ may be related to known merger events: Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus, the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy, the Helmi streams, the Sequoia galaxy, and the Kraken galaxy. We also further identify three new sub-structures associated with the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus. The remaining $16.3\%$ of GCs are unrelated to the known mergers and thought to be from small accretion events. We select 46 GCs which have radii $8.0<r<37.3$ kpc and obtain the anisotropy parameter $\beta=0.315_{-0.049}^{+0.055}$, which is lower than the recent result using the sample of GCs in Gaia Data Release 2, but still in agreement with it by considering the error bar. By using the same sample, we obtain the MW mass inside the outermost GC as $M(<37.3 kpc)=0.423_{-0.02}^{+0.02}\times10^{12}M_{\odot}$, and the corresponding $M_{200}=1.11_{-0.18}^{+0.25}\times10^{12}M_{\odot}$. The estimated mass is consistent with the results in many recent studies. We also find that the estimated $\beta$ and mass depend on the selected sample of GCs. However, it is difficult to determine whether a GC fully traces the potential of the MW.

The theoretical analysis of many problems in physics, astronomy and applied mathematics requires an efficient numerical exploration of multimodal parameter spaces that exhibit broken ergodicity. Monte Carlo methods are widely used to deal with these classes of problems, but such simulations suffer from a ubiquitous sampling problem: the probability of sampling a particular state is proportional to its entropic weight. Devising an algorithm capable of sampling efficiently the full phase space is a long-standing problem. Here we report a new hybrid method for the exploration of multimodal parameter spaces exhibiting broken ergodicity. Superposition enhanced nested sampling (SENS) combines the strengths of global optimization with the unbiased/athermal sampling of nested sampling, greatly enhancing its efficiency with no additional parameters. We report extensive tests of this new approach for atomic clusters that are known to have energy landscapes for which conventional sampling schemes suffer from broken ergodicity. We also introduce a novel parallelization algorithm for nested sampling.

We consider the resolution and the sensitivity, super-resolution is presented along with Heisenberg scaling sensitivity for arbitrary tunable factor, the tunable factor which can optimize the sensitivity is also discussed. Additionally, we analyze the advantages of using angular momentum via considering and comparing simulation results. Under the situation of the optimal tunable factor, the Heisenberg-limited sensitivity and $2\left(\ell+1\right)$-fold super-resolution peak with quantum number $\ell$ are achieved.

We present a derivation of the Jarzynski identity and the Crooks fluctuation theorem for systems governed by deterministic dynamics that conserves the canonical distribution such as Hamiltonian dynamics, Nose-Hoover dynamics, Nose-Hoover chains and Gaussian isokinetic dynamics. The proof is based on a relation between the heat absorbed by the system during the non-equilibrium process and the Jacobian of the phase flow generated by the dynamics.

We derive a general form of eigenvalue self-consistency for $GW_{0}$ in the time domain and use it to obtain a simplified postprocessing eigenvalue self-consistency, which we label $\bar{\Delta}GW_{0}$. The method costs the same as a one-shot $G_{0}W_{0}$ when the latter gives the full frequency-domain (or time-domain) matrix element of the self-energy. The accuracy of $\bar{\Delta}GW_{0}$ increases with system size, as demonstrated here by comparison to other $GW$ self-consistency results and to CCSD(T) predictions. When combined with the large-scale stochastic $G_{0}W_{0}$ formulation $\bar{\Delta}GW_{0}$ is applicable to very large systems, as exemplified by periodic supercells of semiconductors and insulators with 2048 valence electrons. For molecules the error of our eventual partially self-consistent approach starts at about 0.2eV for small molecules and decreases to 0.05eV for large ones, while for the periodic solids studied here the mean-absolute-error is only 0.03eV.

Coherent radio bursts detected from M dwarfs have some analogy with solar radio bursts, but reach orders of magnitude higher luminosities. These events trace particle acceleration, powered by magnetic reconnection, shock fronts (such as formed by coronal mass ejections, CMEs), and magnetospheric currents, in some cases offering the only window into these processes in stellar atmospheres. We conducted a 58-hour, ultra-wideband survey for coherent radio bursts on 5 active M dwarfs. We used the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to observe simultaneously in three frequency bands covering a subset of 224-482 MHz and 1-6 GHz, achieving the widest fractional bandwidth to date for any observations of stellar radio bursts. We detected 22 bursts across 13 epochs, providing the first large sample of wideband dynamic spectra of stellar coherent radio bursts. The observed bursts have diverse morphology, with durations ranging from seconds to hours, but all share strong (40-100%) circular polarization. No events resemble solar Type II bursts (often associated with CMEs), but we cannot rule out the occurrence of radio-quiet stellar CMEs. The hours-long bursts are all polarized in the sense of the x-mode of the star's large-scale magnetic field, suggesting they are cyclotron maser emission from electrons accelerated in the large-scale field, analogous to auroral processes on ultracool dwarfs. The duty cycle of luminous coherent bursts peaks at 25% at 1-1.4 GHz, declining at lower and higher frequencies, indicating source regions in the low corona. At these frequencies, active M dwarfs should be the most common galactic transient source.

As the size of the pre-trained language model (PLM) continues to increase, numerous parameter-efficient transfer learning methods have been proposed recently to compensate for the tremendous cost of fine-tuning. Despite the impressive results achieved by large pre-trained language models (PLMs) and various parameter-efficient transfer learning (PETL) methods on sundry benchmarks, it remains unclear if they can handle inputs that have been distributionally shifted effectively. In this study, we systematically explore how the ability to detect out-of-distribution (OOD) changes as the size of the PLM grows or the transfer methods are altered. Specifically, we evaluated various PETL techniques, including fine-tuning, Adapter, LoRA, and prefix-tuning, on three different intention classification tasks, each utilizing various language models with different scales.

We consider the stochastic control problem of a financial trader that needs to unwind a large asset portfolio within a short period of time. The trader can simultaneously submit active orders to a primary market and passive orders to a dark pool. Our framework is flexible enough to allow for price-dependent impact functions describing the trading costs in the primary market and price-dependent adverse selection costs associated with dark pool trading. We prove that the value function can be characterized in terms of the unique smooth solution to a PDE with singular terminal value, establish its explicit asymptotic behavior at the terminal time, and give the optimal trading strategy in feedback form.

Breast cancer has long been a prominent cause of mortality among women. Diagnosis, therapy, and prognosis are now possible, thanks to the availability of RNA sequencing tools capable of recording gene expression data. Molecular subtyping being closely related to devising clinical strategy and prognosis, this paper focuses on the use of gene expression data for the classification of breast cancer into four subtypes, namely, Basal, Her2, LumA, and LumB. In stage 1, we suggested a deep learning-based model that uses an autoencoder to reduce dimensionality. The size of the feature set is reduced from 20,530 gene expression values to 500 by using an autoencoder. This encoded representation is passed to the deep neural network of the second stage for the classification of patients into four molecular subtypes of breast cancer. By deploying the combined network of stages 1 and 2, we have been able to attain a mean 10-fold test accuracy of 0.907 on the TCGA breast cancer dataset. The proposed framework is fairly robust throughout 10 different runs, as shown by the boxplot for classification accuracy. Compared to related work reported in the literature, we have achieved a competitive outcome. In conclusion, the proposed two-stage deep learning-based model is able to accurately classify four breast cancer subtypes, highlighting the autoencoder's capacity to deduce the compact representation and the neural network classifier's ability to correctly label breast cancer patients.

Semiconductor holes with strong spin-orbit coupling allow all-electrical spin control, with broad applications ranging from spintronics to quantum computation. Using a two-dimensional hole system in a GaAs quantum well, we demonstrate a new mechanism of electrically controlling the Zeeman splitting, which is achieved through altering the hole wave vector $k$. We find a threefold enhancement of the in-plane $g-$factor $g_{\parallel}(k)$. We introduce a new method for quantifying the Zeeman splitting from magnetoresistance measurements, since the conventional tilted field approach fails for two-dimensional systems with strong spin-orbit coupling. Finally, we show that the Rashba spin-orbit interaction suppresses the in-plane Zeeman interaction at low magnetic fields. The ability to control the Zeeman splitting with electric fields opens up new possibilities for future quantum spin-based devices, manipulating non-Abelian geometric phases, and realising Majorana systems in $p-$type superconductor systems.

Due to complexity and invisibility of human organs, diagnosticians need to analyze medical images to determine where the lesion region is, and which kind of disease is, in order to make precise diagnoses. For satisfying clinical purposes through analyzing medical images, registration plays an essential role. For instance, in Image-Guided Interventions (IGI) and computer-aided surgeries, patient anatomy is registered to preoperative images to guide surgeons complete procedures. Medical image registration is also very useful in surgical planning, monitoring disease progression and for atlas construction. Due to the significance, the theories, methods, and implementation method of image registration constitute fundamental knowledge in educational training for medical specialists. In this chapter, we focus on image registration of a specific human organ, i.e. the lung, which is prone to be lesioned. For pulmonary image registration, the improvement of the accuracy and how to obtain it in order to achieve clinical purposes represents an important problem which should seriously be addressed. In this chapter, we provide a survey which focuses on the role of image registration in educational training together with the state-of-the-art of pulmonary image registration. In the first part, we describe clinical applications of image registration introducing artificial organs in Simulation-based Education. In the second part, we summarize the common methods used in pulmonary image registration and analyze popular papers to obtain a survey of pulmonary image registration.

Supersymmetric theories often include the non-compact directions in the field space along which the tree level potential grows only up to a certain limited value (determined by the mass scale of the theory) and then stays constant for the arbitrarily large expectation value of the field parametrizing the direction. Above the critical value, the tree-level curvature is large and positive in the other directions. Such plateaux are natural candidates for the hybrid inflaton. The non-zero F-term density along the plateau spontaneously breaks SUSY and induces the one-loop logarithmic slope for the inflaton potential. The coupling of the inflaton to the Higgs fields in the complex representations of the gauge group, may result in a radiatively induced Fayet--Iliopoulos D-term during inflation, which destabilizes some of the squark and slepton flat directions. Corresponding soft masses can be larger than the Hubble parameter and thus, play a crucial role for the Affleck--Dine baryogenesis.

In database design, Composite Keys are used to uniquely identify records and prevent data duplication. However, they require more memory and storage space than single keys, and can make queries more CPU-intensive. Surrogate Keys are an alternative that can overcome some of these limitations, but they can also introduce new disadvantages. To address these challenges, a new type of key called a Reversible Numeric Composite Key (RNCK) has been developed. RNCK is a single number that encodes multiple data attributes, and can be decoded back to the original values. This makes it possible to achieve the benefits of both Composite Keys and Surrogate Keys, while overcoming some of their limitations. RNCK has been shown to improve query performance and reduce memory and storage requirements. It can be used in relational databases, large static datasets, and key-value caching systems. RNCK has been successfully used in production systems for several years.

Due to their complex nature, it is hard to characterize the ways in which machine learning models can misbehave or be exploited when deployed. Recent work on adversarial examples, i.e. inputs with minor perturbations that result in substantially different model predictions, is helpful in evaluating the robustness of these models by exposing the adversarial scenarios where they fail. However, these malicious perturbations are often unnatural, not semantically meaningful, and not applicable to complicated domains such as language. In this paper, we propose a framework to generate natural and legible adversarial examples that lie on the data manifold, by searching in semantic space of dense and continuous data representation, utilizing the recent advances in generative adversarial networks. We present generated adversaries to demonstrate the potential of the proposed approach for black-box classifiers for a wide range of applications such as image classification, textual entailment, and machine translation. We include experiments to show that the generated adversaries are natural, legible to humans, and useful in evaluating and analyzing black-box classifiers.

On the Ball-Constrained Weighted Maximin Dispersion Problem

The ball-constrained weighted maximin dispersion problem $(\rm P_{ball})$ is to find a point in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean ball such that the minimum of the weighted Euclidean distance from given $m$ points is maximized. We propose a new second-order cone programming relaxation for $(\rm P_{ball})$. Under the condition $m\le n$, $(\rm P_{ball})$ is polynomial-time solvable since the new relaxation is shown to be tight. In general, we prove that $({\rm P_{ball}})$ is NP-hard. Then, we propose a new randomized approximation algorithm for solving $({\rm P_{ball}})$, which provides a new approximation bound of $\frac{1-O(\sqrt{\ln(m)/n})}{2}$.

With the first direct detections of gravitational waves (GWs) from the coalescence of compact binaries observed by the advanced LIGO and VIRGO interferometers, the era of GW astronomy has begun. Whilst there is strong evidence that the observed GWs are connected to the merger of two black holes (BH) or two neutron stars (NS), future detections may present a less consistent picture. Indeed, the possibility that the observed GW signal was created by a merger of exotic compact objects (ECOs) such as boson stars (BS) or axion stars (AS) has not yet been fully excluded. For a detailed understanding of the late stages of the coalescence full 3D numerical relativity simulations are essential. In this paper, we extend the infrastructure of the numerical relativity code BAM, to permit the simultaneous simulation of baryonic matter with bosonic scalar fields, thus enabling the study of BS-BS, BS-NS, and BS-BH mergers. We present a large number of single star evolutions to test the newly implemented routines, and to quantify the numerical challenges of such simulations, which we find to partially differ from the default NS case. We also compare head-on BS-BS simulations with independent numerical relativity codes, namely the SpEC and the GRChombo codes, and find good general agreement. Finally, we present what are, to the best of our knowledge, the first full NR simulations of BS-NS mergers, a first step towards identifying the hallmarks of BS-NS interactions in the strong gravity regime, as well as possible GW and electromagnetic observables.

The distribution of household income is a central concern of modern economic policy due to its strong influence on life quality. Yet, non-expert audiences are unaware of the relationship between these two factors. To effectively communicate the effect of income inequality on the quality of life and among the strata, we have designed a novel technique for visualizing income distribution and inequality over time by using the U.S. household income microdata from the Current Population Survey. The result is a striking dynamic animation of income distribution over time, drawing public attention and further investigating economic inequality. Detailed implementation of this project is available at https://github.com/sangttruong/incomevis.
