Let G be a connected real reductive group. Orbit integrals define traces on the group algebra of G. We introduce a construction of higher orbit integrals in the direction of higher cyclic cocycles on the Harish-Chandra Schwartz algebra of G. We analyze these higher orbit integrals via Fourier transform by expressing them as integrals on the tempered dual of G. We obtain explicit formulas for the pairing between the higher orbit integrals and the K-theory of the reduced group C*-algebra, and discuss their applications to representation theory and K-theory.

We consider probability measure preserving discrete groupoids, group actions and equivalence relations in the context of general probability spaces. We study for these objects the notions of cost, $\beta$-invariant and some higher-dimensional variants. We also propose various convergence results about $\ell^2$-Betti numbers and rank gradient for sequences of actions, groupoids or equivalence relations under weak finiteness assumptions. In particular we connect the combinatorial cost with the cost of the ultralimit equivalence relations. Finally a relative version of Stuck-Zimmer property is also considered.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of random load resampling and migration strategies in parallel server systems. Clients initially attach to an arbitrary server, but may switch server independently at random instants of time in an attempt to improve their service rate. This approach to load balancing contrasts with traditional approaches where clients make smart server selections upon arrival (e.g., Join-the-Shortest-Queue policy and variants thereof). Load resampling is particularly relevant in scenarios where clients cannot predict the load of a server before being actually attached to it. An important example is in wireless spectrum sharing where clients try to share a set of frequency bands in a distributed manner.

We consider a rigidity problem for the spectral gap of the Laplacian on an $RCD(K,\infty)$-space (a metric measure space satisfying the Riemannian curvature-dimension condition) for positive $K$. For a weighted Riemannian manifold, Cheng--Zhou showed that the sharp spectral gap is achieved only when a $1$-dimensional Gaussian space is split off. This can be regarded as an infinite-dimensional counterpart to Obata's rigidity theorem. Generalizing to $RCD(K,\infty)$-spaces is not straightforward due to the lack of smooth structure and doubling condition. We employ the lift of an eigenfunction to the Wasserstein space and the theory of regular Lagrangian flows recently developed by Ambrosio--Trevisan to overcome this difficulty.

Engineering shape and interactions of nanoscopic building blocks allows for the assembly of rationally designed macroscopic three-dimensional (3D) materials with spatial accuracy inaccessible to top-down fabrication methods. Owing to its sequence-specific interaction, DNA is often used as selective binder to connect metallic nanoparticles into highly ordered lattices. Moreover, 3D crystals assembled entirely from DNA have been proposed and implemented with the declared goal to arrange guest molecules in predefined lattices. This requires design schemes that provide high rigidity and sufficiently large open guest space. We here present a DNA origami-based tensegrity triangle structure that assembles into a 3D rhombohedral crystalline lattice. We site-specifically place 10 nm and 20 nm gold particles within the lattice, demonstrating that our crystals are spacious enough to host e.g. ribosome-sized macromolecules. We validate the accurate assembly of the DNA origami lattice itself as well as the precise incorporation of gold particles by electron microscopy and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments. Our results show that it is possible to create DNA building blocks that assemble into lattices with customized geometry. Site-specific hosting of nano objects in the transparent DNA lattice sets the stage for metamaterial and structural biology applications.

Wounding is a severe impairment of function, especially for an exposed organism like the network-forming true slime mould Physarum polycephalum. The tubular network making up the organism's body plan is entirely interconnected and shares a common cytoplasm. Oscillatory contractions of the enclosing tube walls drive the shuttle streaming of the cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic flows underlie the reorganization of the network for example by movement toward attractive stimuli or away from repellants. Here, we follow the reorganization of Physarum polycephalum networks after severe wounding. Spatial mapping of the contraction changes in response to wounding reveal a multi-step pattern. Phases of increased activity alternate with cessation of contractions and stalling of flows, giving rise to coordinated transport and growth at the severing site. Overall, severing surprisingly acts like an attractive stimulus enabling healing of severed tubes. The reproducible cessation of contractions arising during this wound-healing response may open up new venues to investigate the biochemical wiring underlying Physarum polycephalum's complex behaviours.

We studied the magnetoresistance of normal metal (NM)/ferromagnet (FM) bilayers in the linear and nonlinear (current-dependent) regimes and compared it with the amplitude of the spin-orbit torques and thermally induced electric fields. Our experiments reveal that the magnetoresistance of the heavy NM/Co bilayers (NM = Ta, W, Pt) is phenomenologically similar to the spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) of YIG/Pt, but has a much larger anisotropy, of the order of 0.5%, which increases with the atomic number of the NM. This SMR-like behavior is absent in light NM/Co bilayers (NM = Ti, Cu), which present the standard AMR expected of polycrystalline FM layers. In the Ta, W, Pt/Co bilayers we find an additional magnetoresistance, directly proportional to the current and to the transverse component of the magnetization. This so-called unidirectional SMR, of the order of 0.005%, is largest in W and correlates with the amplitude of the antidamping spin-orbit torque. The unidirectional SMR is below the accuracy of our measurements in YIG/Pt.

Electrostatic gating is essential for defining and control of semiconducting devices. However, nano-fabrication processes required for depositing gates inevitably degrade the pristine quality of the material of interest. Examples of materials that suffer from such degradation include ultra-high mobility GaAs/AlGaAs two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs), graphene, topological insulators, and nanowires. To preserve the pristine material properties, we have developed a flip-chip setup where gates are separated from the material by a vacuum, which allows nanoscale electrostatic gating of the material without exposing it to invasive nano-processing. An additional benefit is the vacuum between gates and material, which, unlike gate dielectrics, is free from charge traps. We demonstrate the operation and feasibility of the flip-chip setup by achieving quantum interference at integer quantum Hall states in a Fabry-P\'erot interferometer based on a GaAs/AlGaAs 2DEG. Our results pave the way for the study of exotic phenomena including fragile fractional quantum Hall states by preserving the high quality of the material.

In recent years, edge computing has emerged as a promising technology due to its unique feature of real-time computing and parallel processing. They provide computing and storage capacity closer to the data source and bypass the distant links to the cloud. The edge data analytics process the ubiquitous data on the edge layer to offer real-time interactions for the application. However, this process can be prone to security threats like gaining malicious access or manipulating sensitive data. This can lead to the intruder's control, alter, or add erroneous data affecting the integrity and data analysis efficiency. Due to the lack of transparency of stakeholders processing edge data, it is challenging to identify the vulnerabilities. Many reviews are available on data security issues on the edge layer; however, they do not address integrity issues exclusively. Therefore, this paper concentrates only on data integrity threats that directly influence edge data analysis. Further shortcomings in existing work are identified with few research directions.

We look at computational physics from an electrical engineering perspective and suggest that several concepts of mathematics, not so well-established in computational physics literature, present themselves as opportunities in the field. We emphasize the virtues of the concept of elliptic complex and highlight the category theoretical background and its role as a unifying language between algebraic topology, differential geometry and modelling software design. In particular, the ubiquitous concept of naturality is central. We discuss the Galerkin finite element method as a way to achieve a discrete formulation and discuss its compatibility with so-called cochain methods. Despite the apparent differences in their underlying principles, in both one finds a finite-dimensional subcomplex of a cochain complex. From such a viewpoint, compatibility of a discretization boils down to preserving properties in such a process. Via reflection on the historical background and the identification of common structures, forward-looking research questions may be framed.

The variational approach to fracture is effective for simulating the nucleation and propagation of complex crack patterns, but is computationally demanding. The model is a strongly nonlinear non-convex variational inequality that demands the resolution of small length scales. The current standard algorithm for its solution, alternate minimization, is robust but converges slowly and demands the solution of large, ill-conditioned linear subproblems. In this paper, we propose several advances in the numerical solution of this model that improve its computational efficiency. We reformulate alternate minimization as a nonlinear Gauss-Seidel iteration and employ over-relaxation to accelerate its convergence; we compose this accelerated alternate minimization with Newton's method, to further reduce the time to solution; and we formulate efficient preconditioners for the solution of the linear subproblems arising in both alternate minimization and in Newton's method. We investigate the improvements in efficiency on several examples from the literature; the new solver is 5--6$\times$ faster on a majority of the test cases

Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) approach is used to meet the simulation speed as well as cycle accuracy for large scale SoC performance analysis. We implemented a transaction-level model of a proprietary bus called AHB+ which supports an extended AMBA2.0 protocol. The AHB+ transaction-level model shows 353 times faster than pin-accurate RTL model while maintaining 97% of accuracy on average. We also present the development procedure of TLM of a bus architecture.

We present a collection of integral equation methods for the solution to the two-dimensional, modified Helmholtz equation, $u(\x) - \alpha^2 \Delta u(\x) = 0$, in bounded or unbounded multiply-connected domains. We consider both Dirichlet and Neumann problems. We derive well-conditioned Fredholm integral equations of the second kind, which are discretized using high-order, hybrid Gauss-trapezoid rules. Our fast multipole-based iterative solution procedure requires only O(N) or $O(N\log N)$ operations, where N is the number of nodes in the discretization of the boundary. We demonstrate the performance of the methods on several numerical examples.

We investigate the geometric interpretation of the Standard Model based on noncommutative geometry. Neglecting the $S_0$-reality symmetry one may introduce leptoquarks into the model. We give a detailed discussion of the consequences (both for the Connes-Lott and the spectral action) and compare the results with physical bounds. Our result is that in either case one contradicts the experimental results.

SO(3)-invariant asymptotic observers for dense depth field estimation based on visual data and known camera motion

In this paper, we use known camera motion associated to a video sequence of a static scene in order to estimate and incrementally refine the surrounding depth field. We exploit the SO(3)-invariance of brightness and depth fields dynamics to customize standard image processing techniques. Inspired by the Horn-Schunck method, we propose a SO(3)-invariant cost to estimate the depth field. At each time step, this provides a diffusion equation on the unit Riemannian sphere that is numerically solved to obtain a real time depth field estimation of the entire field of view. Two asymptotic observers are derived from the governing equations of dynamics, respectively based on optical flow and depth estimations: implemented on noisy sequences of synthetic images as well as on real data, they perform a more robust and accurate depth estimation. This approach is complementary to most methods employing state observers for range estimation, which uniquely concern single or isolated feature points.

Streamwise vortices and the associated streaks evolve in boundary layers over flat or concave surfaces due to disturbances initiated upstream or triggered by the wall surface. Following the transient growth phase, the fully-developed vortex structures become susceptible to inviscid secondary instabilities resulting in early transition to turbulence via `bursting' processes. In high-speed boundary layers, more complications arise due to compressibility and thermal effects, which become more significant for higher Mach numbers. In this paper, we study G\"{o}rtler vortices developing in high-speed boundary layers using the boundary region equations (BRE) formalism, which we solve using an efficient numerical algorithm. Streaks are excited using a small transpiration velocity at the wall. Our BRE-based algorithm is found to be superior to direct numerical simulation (DNS) and ad-hoc nonlinear parabolized stability equation (PSE) models. BRE solutions are less computationally costly than a full DNS and have a more rigorous theoretical foundation than PSE-based models. For example, the full development of a G\"{o}rtler vortex system in high-speed boundary layers can be predicted in a matter of minutes using a single processor via the BRE approach. This substantial reduction in calculation time is one of the major achievements of this work. We show, among other things, that it allows investigation into feedback control in reasonable total computational times. We investigate the development of the G\"{o}rtler vortex system via the BRE solution with feedback control parametrically at various freestream Mach numbers $M_\infty$ and spanwise separations $\lambda$ of the inflow disturbances.

We generalize the discrete quantum walk on the line using a time dependent unitary coin operator. We find an analytical relation between the long-time behaviors of the standard deviation and the coin operator. Selecting the coin time sequence allows to obtain a variety of predetermined asymptotic wave-function spreadings: ballistic, sub-ballistic, diffusive, sub-diffusive and localized.

An improved version of the Cascade-Exciton Model (CEM) of nuclear reactions implemented in the codes CEM2k and the Los Alamos version of the Quark-Gluon String Model (LAQGSM) has been developed recently at LANL to describe reactions induced by particles and nuclei at energies up to hundreds of GeV/nucleon for a number of applications. We present several improvements to the intranuclear cascade models used in CEM2k and LAQGSM developed recently to better describe the physics of nuclear reactions. First, we incorporate the photonuclear mode from CEM2k into LAQGSM to allow it to describe photonuclear reactions, not previously modeled there. Then, we develop new approximations to describe more accurately experimental elementary energy and angular distributions of secondary particles from hadron-hadron and photon-hadron interactions using available data and approximations published by other authors. Finally, to consider reactions involving very highly excited nuclei (E* > 2-3 MeV/A), we have incorporated into CEM2k and LAQGSM the Statistical Multifragmentation Model (SMM), as a possible reaction mechanism occurring after the preequilibrium stage. A number of other refinements to our codes developed recently are also listed.

We construct the first examples of regular del Pezzo surfaces for which the irregularity (i.e. the dimension of the first cohomology group of the structure sheaf) is nonzero. We also find a restriction on the integer pairs that are possible as the anti-canonical degree and irregularity of such a surface.

A second order classical perturbation theory is developed and applied to elastic atom corrugated surface scattering. The resulting theory accounts for experimentally observed asymmetry in the final angular distributions. These include qualitative features, such as reduction of the asymmetry with increased incidence energy as well as asymmetry in the location of the rainbow peaks with respect to the specular scattering angle. The theory is especially applicable to "soft" corrugated potentials. Analytic expressions for the angular distribution are derived for the exponential repulsive and Morse potential models. The theory is implemented numerically to a simplified model of the scattering of an Ar atom from a LiF(100) surface.

In this article we prove the following theorems about weak approximation of smooth cubic hypersurfaces and del Pezzo surfaces of degree 4 defined over global fields. (1) For cubic hypersurfaces defined over global function fields, if there is a rational point, then weak approximation holds at places of good reduction whose residual field has at least 11 elements. (2) For del Pezzo surfaces of degree 4 defined over global function fields, if there is a rational point, then weak approximation holds at places of good reduction whose residual field has at least 13 elements. (3) Weak approximation holds for cubic hypersurfaces of dimension at least 10 defined over a global function field of characteristic not equal to 2, 3, 5 or a purely imaginary number field.

We study relatively minimal subgroups in topological groups. We find, in particular, some natural relatively minimal subgroups in unipotent groups which are defined over "good" rings. By "good" rings we mean archimedean absolute valued (not necessarily associative) division rings. Some of the classical rings which we consider besides the field of reals are the ring of quaternions and the ring of octonions. This way we generalize in part a previous result which was obtained by Dikranjan and Megrelishvili and involved the Heisenberg group.

We propose the metric for general rotating spacetimes. These spacetimes are stationary, axially symmetric and spatially asymptotically flat. They can be the spacetimes outside of rotating black holes or rotating celestial bodies such as the Sun and the Earth. The metric functions are expanded in power series of distance and the angle variable is included in the expansion coefficients.

Color theme or color palette can deeply influence the quality and the feeling of a photograph or a graphical design. Although color palettes may come from different sources such as online crowd-sourcing, photographs and graphical designs, in this paper, we consider color palettes extracted from fine art collections, which we believe to be an abundant source of stylistic and unique color themes. We aim to capture color styles embedded in these collections by means of statistical models and to build practical applications upon these models. As artists often use their personal color themes in their paintings, making these palettes appear frequently in the dataset, we employed density estimation to capture the characteristics of palette data. Via density estimation, we carried out various predictions and interpolations on palettes, which led to promising applications such as photo-style exploration, real-time color suggestion, and enriched photo recolorization. It was, however, challenging to apply density estimation to palette data as palettes often come as unordered sets of colors, which make it difficult to use conventional metrics on them. To this end, we developed a divide-and-conquer sorting algorithm to rearrange the colors in the palettes in a coherent order, which allows meaningful interpolation between color palettes. To confirm the performance of our model, we also conducted quantitative experiments on datasets of digitized paintings collected from the Internet and received favorable results.

Instruments can be used to identify causal effects in the presence of unobserved confounding, under the famous relevance and exogeneity (unconfoundedness and exclusion) assumptions. As exogeneity is difficult to justify and to some degree untestable, it often invites criticism in applications. Hoping to alleviate this problem, we propose a novel identification approach, which relaxes traditional IV exogeneity to exogeneity conditional on some unobserved common confounders. We assume there exist some relevant proxies for the unobserved common confounders. Unlike typical proxies, our proxies can have a direct effect on the endogenous regressor and the outcome. We provide point identification results with a linearly separable outcome model in the disturbance, and alternatively with strict monotonicity in the first stage. General doubly robust and Neyman orthogonal moments are derived consecutively to enable the straightforward root-n estimation of low-dimensional parameters despite the high-dimensionality of nuisances, themselves non-uniquely defined by Fredholm integral equations. Using this novel method with NLS97 data, we separate ability bias from general selection bias in the economic returns to education problem.

The goal of opinion maximization is to maximize the positive view towards a product, an ideology or any entity among the individuals in social networks. So far, opinion maximization is mainly studied as finding a set of influential nodes for fast content dissemination in a social network. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to solve the problem, where opinion maximization is achieved through efficient information spreading. In our model, multiple sources inject information continuously into the network, while the regular nodes with heterogeneous social learning abilities spread the information to their acquaintances through gossip mechanism. One of the sources employs smart information spreading and the rest spread information randomly. We model the social interactions and evolution of opinions as a dynamic Bayesian network (DBN), using which the opinion maximization is formulated as a sequential decision problem. Since the problem is intractable, we develop multiple variants of centralized and decentralized learning algorithms to obtain approximate solutions. Through simulations in synthetic and real-world networks, we demonstrate two key results: 1) the proposed methods perform better than random spreading by a large margin, and 2) even though the smart source (that spreads the desired content) is unfavorably located in the network, it can outperform the contending random sources located at favorable positions.

An upcoming industrial IoT revolution, supposedly led by the introduction of embedded sensing and computing, seamless communication and massive data analytics within industrial processes [1], seems unquestionable today. Multiple technologies are being developed, and huge marketing efforts are being made to position solutions in this industrial landscape. However, we have observed that industrial wireless technologies are hardly being adopted by the manufacturing industry. In this article, we try to understand the reasons behind this current lack of wireless technologies adoption by means of conducting visits to the manufacturing industry and interviews with the maintenance and engineering teams in these industries. The manufacturing industry is very diverse and specialized, so we have tried to cover some of the most representative cases: the automotive sector, the pharmaceutical sector (blistering), machine-tool industries (both consumer and aerospace sectors) and robotics. We have analyzed the technology of their machinery, their application requirements and restrictions, and identified a list of obstacles for wireless technology adoption. The most immediate obstacles we have found are the need to strictly follow standards and certifications processes, as well as their prudence. But the less obvious and perhaps even more limiting obstacles are their apparent lack of concern regarding low energy consumption or cost which, in contrast, are believed to be of utmost importance by wireless researchers and practitioners. In this reality-check article, we analyze the causes of this different perception, we identify these obstacles and devise complementary paths to make wireless adoption by the industrial manufacturing sector a reality in the coming years.

Exchanges between the blood compartment and the surrounding tissues require a tight regulation by the endothelial barrier. Recent reports inferred that VE-cadherin, an endothelial specific cell-cell adhesion molecule, plays a pivotal role in the formation, maturation and remodeling of the vascular wall. Indeed, a growing number of permeability inducing factors (PIFs) was shown to elicit signaling mechanisms culminating in VE-cadherin destabilization and global alteration of the junctional architecture. Conversely, anti-PIFs protect from VE-cadherin disruption and enhance cell cohesion. These findings provide evidence on how endothelial cell-cell junctions impact the vascular network, and change our perception about normal and aberrant angiogenesis.

Link discovery is an active field of research to support data integration in the Web of Data. Due to the huge size and number of available data sources, efficient and effective link discovery is a very challenging task. Common pairwise link discovery approaches do not scale to many sources with very large entity sets. We here propose a distributed holistic approach to link many data sources based on a clustering of entities that represent the same real-world object. Our clustering approach provides a compact and fused representation of entities, and can identify errors in existing links as well as many new links. We support a distributed execution of the clustering approach to achieve faster execution times and scalability for large real-world data sets. We provide a novel gold standard for multi-source clustering, and evaluate our methods with respect to effectiveness and efficiency for large data sets from the geographic and music domains.

In dead zones of protoplanetary discs, it is assumed that micrometre-sized particles grow Brownian, sediment to the midplane and drift radially inward. When collisional compaction sets in, the growing aggregates collect slower and therefore dynamically smaller particles. This sedimentation and growth phase of highly porous ice and dust aggregates is simulated with laboratory experiments in which we obtained mm- to cm-sized ice aggregates with a porosity of 90\% as well as cm-sized dust agglomerates with a porosity of 85\%. We modelled the growth process during sedimentation in an analytical calculation to compute the agglomerate sizes when they reach the midplane of the protoplanetary disc. In the midplane, the dust particles form a thin dense layer and gain relative velocities by, e.g., the streaming instability or the onset of shear turbulence. To investigate also these collisions, we performed additional laboratory drop tower experiments with the high-porosity aggregates formed in the sedimentary-growth experiments and determined their mechanical parameters, including their sticking threshold velocity, which is important for their further collisional evolution on their way to form planetesimals. Finally, we developed a method to calculate the packing-density-dependent fundamental properties of our dust and ice agglomerates, the Young's modulus, the Poisson ratio, the shear viscosity and the bulk viscosity from compression measurements. With these parameters, it was possible to derive the coefficient of restitution which fits our measurements. In order to physically describe these outcomes, we applied a collision model. With this model, predictions about general dust-aggregate collisions are possible.

The paucity of reliable achromatic breaks in Gamma-Ray Burst afterglow light curves motivates independent measurements of the jet aperture. Serendipitous searches of afterglows, especially at radio wavelengths, have long been the classic alternative. These survey data have been interpreted assuming a uniformly emitting jet with sharp edges (``top-hat'' jet), in which case the ratio of weakly relativistically beamed afterglows to GRBs scales with the jet solid angle. In this paper, we consider, instead, a very wide outflow with a luminosity that decreases across the emitting surface. In particular, we adopt the universal structured jet (USJ) model, that is an alternative to the top-hat model for the structure of the jet. However, the interpretation of the survey data is very different: in the USJ model we only observe the emission within the jet aperture and the observed ratio of prompt emission rate to afterglow rate should solely depend on selection effects. We compute the number and rate of afterglows expected in all-sky snapshot observations as a function of the survey sensitivity. We find that the current (negative) results for OA searches are in agreement with our expectations. In radio and X-ray bands this was mainly due to the low sensitivity of the surveys, while in the optical band the sky-coverage was not sufficient. In general we find that X-ray surveys are poor tools for OA searches, if the jet is structured. On the other hand, the FIRST radio survey and future instruments like the Allen Telescope Array (in the radio band) and especially GAIA, Pan-Starrs and LSST (in the optical band) will have chances to detect afterglows.

A pairwise clustering approach is applied to the analysis of the Dow Jones index companies, in order to identify similar temporal behavior of the traded stock prices. To this end, the chaotic map clustering algorithm is used, where a map is associated to each company and the correlation coefficients of the financial time series are associated to the coupling strengths between maps. The simulation of a chaotic map dynamics gives rise to a natural partition of the data, as companies belonging to the same industrial branch are often grouped together. The identification of clusters of companies of a given stock market index can be exploited in the portfolio optimization strategies.

Starting with a spectral triple on a unital $C^{*}$-algebra $A$ with an action of a discrete group $G$, if the action is uniformly bounded (in a Lipschitz sense) a spectral triple on the reduced crossed product $C^{*}$-algebra $A\rtimes_{r} G$ is constructed in [Hawkins, Skalski, White, Zacharias. Mathematica Scandinavica 2013]. The main instrument is the Kasparov external product. We note that this construction still works for twisted crossed products when the twisted action is uniformly bounded in the appropriate sense. Under suitable assumptions we discuss some basic properties of the resulting triples: summability and regularity. Noncommutative coverings with finite abelian structure group are among the most basic, still interesting, examples of twisted crossed products; we describe their main features.

We revisit the relation of the six-dimensional (2,0) M5-brane Conformal Field Theory compactified on a circle to 5D maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills Gauge Theory. We show that in the broken phase 5D super-Yang-Mills contains a spectrum of soliton states that can be identified with the complete Kaluza-Klein modes of an M2-brane ending on the M5-branes. This provides evidence that the (2,0) theory on a circle is equivalent to 5D super-Yang-Mills with no additional UV degrees of freedom, suggesting that the latter is in fact a well-defined quantum theory and possibly finite.

The aim of this article is to provide an understanding of social networks as a useful addition to the standard tool-box of techniques used by system designers. To this end, we give examples of how data about social links have been collected and used in di erent application contexts. We develop a broad taxonomy-based overview of common properties of social networks, review how they might be used in di erent applications, and point out potential pitfalls where appropriate. We propose a framework, distinguishing between two main types of social network-based user selection-personalised user selection which identi es target users who may be relevant for a given source node, using the social network around the source as a context, and generic user selection or group delimitation, which lters for a set of users who satisfy a set of application requirements based on their social properties. Using this framework, we survey applications of social networks in three typical kinds of application scenarios: recommender systems, content-sharing systems (e.g., P2P or video streaming), and systems which defend against users who abuse the system (e.g., spam or sybil attacks). In each case, we discuss potential directions for future research that involve using social network properties.

We have identified the ROSAT source RX J0039.2-5117 with the previously almost unknown `narrow line' Seyfert 1 galaxy WPVS007 (z=0.028). The X-ray source displays quite unusual properties for an AGN. It was bright and ultrasoft in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) and found at a level lower by a factor of ~ 400 in PSPC count rate in 1993. The implied 0.1-2.4 keV luminosity during the RASS was ~ 10^{37} W. We discuss possible explanations for the extremely soft X-ray spectrum and the observed variability.

Rethinking preventing class-collapsing in metric learning with margin-based losses

Metric learning seeks perceptual embeddings where visually similar instances are close and dissimilar instances are apart, but learned representations can be sub-optimal when the distribution of intra-class samples is diverse and distinct sub-clusters are present. Although theoretically with optimal assumptions, margin-based losses such as the triplet loss and margin loss have a diverse family of solutions. We theoretically prove and empirically show that under reasonable noise assumptions, margin-based losses tend to project all samples of a class with various modes onto a single point in the embedding space, resulting in a class collapse that usually renders the space ill-sorted for classification or retrieval. To address this problem, we propose a simple modification to the embedding losses such that each sample selects its nearest same-class counterpart in a batch as the positive element in the tuple. This allows for the presence of multiple sub-clusters within each class. The adaptation can be integrated into a wide range of metric learning losses. The proposed sampling method demonstrates clear benefits on various fine-grained image retrieval datasets over a variety of existing losses; qualitative retrieval results show that samples with similar visual patterns are indeed closer in the embedding space.

We present in this paper a generic object-oriented benchmark (the Object Clustering Benchmark) that has been designed to evaluate the performances of clustering policies in object-oriented databases. OCB is generic because its sample database may be customized to fit the databases introduced by the main existing benchmarks (e.g., OO1). OCB's current form is clustering-oriented because of its clustering-oriented workload, but it can be easily adapted to other purposes. Lastly, OCB's code is compact and easily portable. OCB has been implemented in a real system (Texas, running on a Sun workstation), in order to test a specific clustering policy called DSTC. A few results concerning this test are presented.

Variational Bayesian quantum metrology is a promising avenue toward quantum advantage in sensing which optimizes both the state preparation (or encoding) and measurement (or decoding) procedures and takes prior information into account. For the sake of practical advantage, it is important to understand how effective various parametrized protocols are as well as how robust they are to the effects of complex noise, such as spatially correlated noise. First, we propose a new family of parametrized encoding and decoding protocols called arbitrary-axis twist ansatzes, and show that it can lead to a substantial reduction in the number of one-axis twists needed to achieve a target estimation error. Second, using a polynomial-size tensor network algorithm, we analyze practical variational metrology beyond the symmetric subspace of a collective spin, and find that quantum advantage persists for shallow-depth ansatzes under realistic noise level.

The standard $\Lambda$CDM model of cosmology is formulated as a simple modified gravity coupled to a single scalar field ("darkon") possessing a non-trivial hidden nonlinear Noether symmetry. The main ingredient in the construction is the use of the formalism of non-Riemannian spacetime volume-elements. The associated Noether conserved current produces stress-energy tensor consisting of two additive parts -- dynamically generated dark energy and dark matter components non-interacting among themselves. Noether symmetry breaking via an additional scalar "darkon" potential introduces naturally an interaction between dark energy and dark matter. The correspondence between the $\Lambda$CDM model and the present "darkon" Noether symmetry is exhibited up to linear order w.r.t. gravity-matter perturbations.

Differential privacy is often applied with a privacy parameter that is larger than the theory suggests is ideal; various informal justifications for tolerating large privacy parameters have been proposed. In this work, we consider partial differential privacy (DP), which allows quantifying the privacy guarantee on a per-attribute basis. In this framework, we study several basic data analysis and learning tasks, and design algorithms whose per-attribute privacy parameter is smaller that the best possible privacy parameter for the entire record of a person (i.e., all the attributes).

Cell-Probe Lower Bounds from Online Communication Complexity

In this work, we introduce an online model for communication complexity. Analogous to how online algorithms receive their input piece-by-piece, our model presents one of the players, Bob, his input piece-by-piece, and has the players Alice and Bob cooperate to compute a result each time before the next piece is revealed to Bob. This model has a closer and more natural correspondence to dynamic data structures than classic communication models do, and hence presents a new perspective on data structures. We first present a tight lower bound for the online set intersection problem in the online communication model, demonstrating a general approach for proving online communication lower bounds. The online communication model prevents a batching trick that classic communication complexity allows, and yields a stronger lower bound. We then apply the online communication model to prove data structure lower bounds for two dynamic data structure problems: the Group Range problem and the Dynamic Connectivity problem for forests. Both of the problems admit a worst case $O(\log n)$-time data structure. Using online communication complexity, we prove a tight cell-probe lower bound for each: spending $o(\log n)$ (even amortized) time per operation results in at best an $\exp(-\delta^2 n)$ probability of correctly answering a $(1/2+\delta)$-fraction of the $n$ queries.

Recently, Kupavskii~[{\it On random subgraphs of {K}neser and {S}chrijver graphs. J. Combin. Theory Ser. A, {\rm 2016}.}] investigated the chromatic number of random Kneser graphs $\KG_{n,k}(\rho)$ and proved that, in many cases, the chromatic numbers of the random Kneser graph $\KG_{n,k}(\rho)$ and the Kneser graph $\KG_{n,k}$ are almost surely closed. He also marked the studying of the chromatic number of random Kneser hypergraphs $\KG^r_{n,k}(\rho)$ as a very interesting problem. With the help of $\Z_p$-Tucker lemma, a combinatorial generalization of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem, we generalize Kupavskii's result to random general Kneser hypergraphs by introducing an almost surely lower bound for the chromatic number of them. Roughly speaking, as a special case of our result, we show that the chromatic numbers of the random Kneser hypergraph $\KG^r_{n,k}(\rho)$ and the Kneser hypergraph $\KG^r_{n,k}$ are almost surely closed in many cases. Moreover, restricting to the Kneser and {S}chrijver graphs, we present a purely combinatorial proof for an improvement of Kupavskii's results. Also, for any hypergraph $\HH$, we present a lower bound for the minimum number of colors required in a coloring of $\KG^r(\mathcal{H})$ with no monochromatic $K_{t,\ldots,t}^r$ subhypergraph, where $K_{t,\ldots,t}^r$ is the complete $r$-uniform $r$-partite hypergraph with $t r$ vertices such that each of its parts has $t$ vertices. This result generalizes the lower bound for the chromatic number of $\KG^r(\mathcal{H})$ found by the present authors~[{\it On the chromatic number of general {K}neser hypergraphs. J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, {\rm 2015}.}].

Artificial magnetic field in electromagnetism is becoming an emerging way as a robust control of light based on its geometric and topological nature. Other than demonstrating topological photonics properties in the diffractive regime using photonic crystals or arrays of waveguides, it will be of great interest if similar manipulations can be done simply in the long wavelength limit, in which only a few optical parameters can be used to describe the system, making the future optical component design much easier. Here, by designing and fabricating a metamaterial with split dispersion surface, we provide a straight-forward experimental realization of spin-dependent gauge field in the real space using a biaxial material. A "magnetic force bending" for light of desired pseudospins is visualized experimentally by such a gauge field as a manifestation of optical spin Hall effect. Such a demonstration is potentially useful to develop pseudospin optics, topological components and spin-enabled transformation optical devices.

We study the $k$-server problem in the resource augmentation setting i.e., when the performance of the online algorithm with $k$ servers is compared to the offline optimal solution with $h \leq k$ servers. The problem is very poorly understood beyond uniform metrics. For this special case, the classic $k$-server algorithms are roughly $(1+1/\epsilon)$-competitive when $k=(1+\epsilon) h$, for any $\epsilon >0$. Surprisingly however, no $o(h)$-competitive algorithm is known even for HSTs of depth 2 and even when $k/h$ is arbitrarily large. We obtain several new results for the problem. First we show that the known $k$-server algorithms do not work even on very simple metrics. In particular, the Double Coverage algorithm has competitive ratio $\Omega(h)$ irrespective of the value of $k$, even for depth-2 HSTs. Similarly the Work Function Algorithm, that is believed to be optimal for all metric spaces when $k=h$, has competitive ratio $\Omega(h)$ on depth-3 HSTs even if $k=2h$. Our main result is a new algorithm that is $O(1)$-competitive for constant depth trees, whenever $k =(1+\epsilon )h$ for any $\epsilon > 0$. Finally, we give a general lower bound that any deterministic online algorithm has competitive ratio at least 2.4 even for depth-2 HSTs and when $k/h$ is arbitrarily large. This gives a surprising qualitative separation between uniform metrics and depth-2 HSTs for the $(h,k)$-server problem, and gives the strongest known lower bound for the problem on general metrics.

For the first time accurate measurements of electron and positron fluxes in the energy range 0.2-10 GeV have been performed with the Alpha Magnetic Spectometer (AMS) instrument at altitudes of 370-390 Km in the geographic latitude interval +/- 51.7 deg. We present an original analysis of the AMS data, focused on the study of the under-cutoff component of these fluxes, outside the region of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA). A separation in quasi-trapped, long lifetime (O(10 s)), and albedo, short life time (O(100 ms)), components is found. The flux maps as a function of the canonical adiabatic variables L, alpha0 are determined in the interval (L,alpha0)=(0.95-3,0-90) for electrons with E less than 10 GeV, and positrons with E less than 3 GeV. The results are compared with existing data at lower energies and in similar L, alpha0 range. The properties of the observed under-cutoff particles are also investigated in terms of their residence times and geographical origin. The resulting distributions are discussed and related to the characteristics of the drift shells observed by AMS.

The effects of adversarial training on semantic segmentation networks has not been thoroughly explored. While previous work has shown that adversarially-trained image classifiers can be used to perform image synthesis, we have yet to understand how best to leverage an adversarially-trained segmentation network to do the same. Using a simple optimizer, we demonstrate that adversarially-trained semantic segmentation networks can be used to perform image inpainting and generation. Our experiments demonstrate that adversarially-trained segmentation networks are more robust and indeed exhibit perceptually-aligned gradients which help in producing plausible image inpaintings. We seek to place additional weight behind the hypothesis that adversarially robust models exhibit gradients that are more perceptually-aligned with human vision. Through image synthesis, we argue that perceptually-aligned gradients promote a better understanding of a neural network's learned representations and aid in making neural networks more interpretable.

We describe a simple model for the melting and optical properties of a DNA/gold nanoparticle aggregate. The aggregate is modeled as a cluster of gold nanoparticles on a periodic lattice connected by DNA bonds, and the extinction coefficient is computed using the discrete dipole approximation. The optical properties at fixed wavelength change dramatically at the melting transition, which is found to be higher and narrower in temperature for larger particles, and much sharper than that of an isolated DNA link. All these features are in agreement with available experiments.

We investigate the use of Android permissions as the vehicle to allow for quick and effective differentiation between benign and malware apps. To this end, we extract all Android permissions, eliminating those that have zero impact, and apply two feature ranking algorithms namely Chi-Square test and Fisher's Exact test to rank and additionally filter them, resulting in a comparatively small set of relevant permissions. Then we use Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, and Random Forest Classifier algorithms to detect malware apps. Our analysis indicates that this approach can result in better accuracy and F-score value than other reported approaches. In particular, when random forest is used as the classifier with the combination of Fisher's Exact test, we achieve 99.34\% in accuracy and 92.17\% in F-score with the false positive rate of 0.56\% for the dataset in question, with results improving to 99.82\% in accuracy and 95.28\% in F-score with the false positive rate as low as 0.05\% when only malware from three most popular malware families are considered.

There has been considerable interest recently in the generation of azimuthal phase functions associated with photon orbital angular momentum (OAM) for high-dimensional quantum key distribution (QKD). The generation of secure quantum keys requires not only this pure phase basis, but also additional bases comprised of orthonormal superposition states formed from the pure states. These bases are also known as mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) and include quantum states whose wave functions are modulated in both phase and amplitude. While modulo 2\pi optical path control with high-resolution spatial light modulators (SLMs) is well suited to creating the azimuthal phases associated with the pure states, it does not introduce the amplitude modulation associated with the MUB superposition states. Using computer-generated holography (CGH) with the Leith-Upatnieks approach to hologram recording however, both phase and amplitude modulation can be achieved. This paper presents a description of the OAM states of a 3-dimensional MUB system and analyzes the construction of these states via CGH with a phase modulating SLM. The effects of phase holography artifacts on quantum-state generation are quantified and a prescription for avoiding these artifacts by preconditioning the hologram function is presented. Practical effects associated with spatially isolating the first-order diffracted field are also quantified and a demonstration utilizing a liquid crystal SLM is presented.

Deep learning (DL) approaches, such as CNN and Transformer networks, have shown promise in bitemporal change detection (CD). However, these approaches have limitations in capturing long-range dependencies and incorporating 2D structure and spatial local information, resulting in inaccurate CD maps with discerning edges. To overcome these limitations, this paper presents a novel end-to-end DDPM-based model called change-aware diffusion model (CADM), which introduces three key innovations. Firstly, CADM directly generates CD maps as a generation model. It leverages variational inference, a powerful technique for learning complex probabilistic models, to facilitate the gradual learning and refinement of the model's data representation. This enables CADM to effectively distinguish subtle and irregular buildings or natural scenes from the background. Secondly, CADM introduces an adaptive calibration conditional difference encoding technique. This technique utilizes differences between multi-level features to guide the sampling process, enhancing the precision of the CD map. Lastly, CADM incorporates a noise suppression-based semantic enhancer (NSSE) to improve the quality of the CD map. The NSSE utilizes prior knowledge from the current step to suppress high-frequency noise, enhancing the differential information and refining the CD map. We evaluate CADM on four remote sensing CD tasks with different ground scenarios, including CDD, WHU, Levier, and GVLM. Experimental results demonstrate that CADM significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods, indicating the generalization and effectiveness of the proposed model.

We have directly measured the energy threshold and efficiency for bubble nucleation from iodine recoils in a CF3I bubble chamber in the energy range of interest for a dark matter search. These interactions cannot be probed by standard neutron calibration methods, so we develop a new technique by observing the elastic scattering of 12 GeV/c negative pions. The pions are tracked with a silicon pixel telescope and the reconstructed scattering angle provides a measure of the nuclear recoil kinetic energy. The bubble chamber was operated with a nominal threshold of (13.6+-0.6) keV. Interpretation of the results depends on the response to fluorine and carbon recoils, but in general we find agreement with the predictions of the classical bubble nucleation theory. This measurement confirms the applicability of CF3I as a target for spin-independent dark matter interactions and represents a novel technique for calibration of superheated fluid detectors.

Heavy fermion systems represent a prototypical setting to study magnetic quantum phase transitions. A particular focus has been on the physics of Kondo destruction, which captures quantum criticality beyond the Landau framework of order-parameter fluctuations. In this context, we study the spin one-half Kondo-Heisenberg model on a honeycomb lattice at half filling. The problem is approached from the Kondo destroyed, antiferromagnetically ordered insulating phase. We describe the local moments in terms of a coarse grained quantum non-linear sigma model, and show that the skyrmion defects of the antiferromagnetic order parameter host a number of competing order parameters. In addition to the spin Peierls, charge and current density wave order parameters, we identify for the first time Kondo singlets as the competing orders of the antiferromagnetism. We show that the antiferromagnetism and various competing singlet orders can be related to each other via generalized chiral transformations of the underlying fermions. We also show that the conduction electrons acquire a Berry phase through their coupling to the hedgehog configurations of the N\'eel order, which cancels the Berry phase of the local moments. Our results demonstrate the competition between the Kondo-singlet formation and spin-Peierls order when the antiferromagnetic order is suppressed, thereby shedding new light on the global phase diagram of heavy fermion systems at zero temperature.

Aims: Our aim was to measure and characterize the short-wavelength radio emission from young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Orion Nebula Cluster and the BN/KL star-forming region. Methods: We used the NRAO Very Large Array at a wavelength of 1.3 cm and we studied archival X-ray, infrared, and radio data. Results: During our observation, a strong outburst (flux increasing >10 fold) occurred in one of the 16 sources detected at a wavelength of 1.3cm, while the others remained (nearly) constant. This source does not have an infrared counterpart, but has subsequently been observed to flare in X-rays. Curiously, a very weak variable double radio source was found at other epochs near this position, one of whose components is coincident with it. A very high extinction derived from modeling the X-ray emission and the absence of an infrared counterpart both suggest that this source is very deeply embedded.

We give a cross-disciplinary survey on ``population'' Monte Carlo algorithms. In these algorithms, a set of ``walkers'' or ``particles'' is used as a representation of a high-dimensional vector. The computation is carried out by a random walk and split/deletion of these objects. The algorithms are developed in various fields in physics and statistical sciences and called by lots of different terms -- ``quantum Monte Carlo'', ``transfer-matrix Monte Carlo'', ``Monte Carlo filter (particle filter)'',``sequential Monte Carlo'' and ``PERM'' etc. Here we discuss them in a coherent framework. We also touch on related algorithms -- genetic algorithms and annealed importance sampling.

Cavitation and sulcification of soft elastomers are two examples of thresholdless, nonlinear instabilities that evade detection by linearization. I show that the onset of such instabilities can be understood as a kind of phase coexistence between multiple scale-invariant states, and I constructively enumerate the possible scale-invariant states of incompressible rubber in two dimensions. Whereas true phases (like the affine deformations of rubber) are homogeneous, the alternatives are inhomogeneous. In terms of the thermodynamics of solids, both classes of states must generally be given equal consideration.

The importance of understanding SARS-CoV-2 evolution cannot be overemphasized. Recent studies confirm that natural selection is the dominating mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 evolution, which favors mutations that strengthen viral infectivity. We demonstrate that vaccine-breakthrough or antibody-resistant mutations provide a new mechanism of viral evolution. Specifically, vaccine-resistant mutation Y449S in the spike (S) protein receptor-bonding domain (RBD), which occurred in co-mutation [Y449S, N501Y], has reduced infectivity compared to the original SARS-CoV-2 but can disrupt existing antibodies that neutralize the virus. By tracing the evolutionary trajectories of vaccine-resistant mutations in over 1.9 million SARS-CoV-2 genomes, we reveal that the occurrence and frequency of vaccine-resistant mutations correlate strongly with the vaccination rates in Europe and America. We anticipate that as a complementary transmission pathway, vaccine-resistant mutations will become a dominating mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 evolution when most of the world's population is vaccinated. Our study sheds light on SARS-CoV-2 evolution and transmission and enables the design of the next-generation mutation-proof vaccines and antibody drugs.

Let $G$ be a finite primitive permutation group on a set $\Omega$ and recall that the fixed point ratio of an element $x \in G$, denoted ${\rm fpr}(x)$, is the proportion of points in $\Omega$ fixed by $x$. Fixed point ratios in this setting have been studied for many decades, finding a wide range of applications. In this paper, we are interested in comparing ${\rm fpr}(x)$ with the order of $x$. Our main theorem classifies the triples $(G,\Omega,x)$ as above with the property that $x$ has prime order $r$ and ${\rm fpr}(x) > 1/(r+1)$. There are several applications. Firstly, we extend earlier work of Guralnick and Magaard by determining the primitive permutation groups of degree $m$ with minimal degree at most $2m/3$. Secondly, our main result plays a key role in recent work of the authors (together with Moret\'{o} and Navarro) on the commuting probability of $p$-elements in finite groups. Finally, we use our main theorem to investigate the minimal index of a primitive permutation group, which allows us to answer a question of Bhargava.

Open-World Pose Transfer via Sequential Test-Time Adaption
We call for a solid pose transfer model that can handle open-world instances beyond a specific dataset
null

Pose transfer aims to transfer a given person into a specified posture, has recently attracted considerable attention. A typical pose transfer framework usually employs representative datasets to train a discriminative model, which is often violated by out-of-distribution (OOD) instances. Recently, test-time adaption (TTA) offers a feasible solution for OOD data by using a pre-trained model that learns essential features with self-supervision. However, those methods implicitly make an assumption that all test distributions have a unified signal that can be learned directly. In open-world conditions, the pose transfer task raises various independent signals: OOD appearance and skeleton, which need to be extracted and distributed in speciality. To address this point, we develop a SEquential Test-time Adaption (SETA). In the test-time phrase, SETA extracts and distributes external appearance texture by augmenting OOD data for self-supervised training. To make non-Euclidean similarity among different postures explicit, SETA uses the image representations derived from a person re-identification (Re-ID) model for similarity computation. By addressing implicit posture representation in the test-time sequentially, SETA greatly improves the generalization performance of current pose transfer models. In our experiment, we first show that pose transfer can be applied to open-world applications, including Tiktok reenactment and celebrity motion synthesis.

Inherent Limitations of Hybrid Transactional Memory

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
Several Hybrid Transactional Memory (HyTM) schemes have recently been proposed to complement the fast, but best-effort, nature of Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) with a slow, reliable software backup. However, the fundamental limitations of building a HyTM with nontrivial concurrency between hardware and software transactions are still not well understood. In this paper, we propose a general model for HyTM implementations, which captures the ability of hardware transactions to buffer memory accesses, and allows us to formally quantify and analyze the amount of overhead (instrumentation) of a HyTM scheme. We prove the following: (1) it is impossible to build a strictly serializable HyTM implementation that has both uninstrumented reads and writes, even for weak progress guarantees, and (2) under reasonable assumptions, in any opaque progressive HyTM, a hardware transaction must incur instrumentation costs linear in the size of its data set. We further provide two upper bound implementations whose instrumentation costs are optimal with respect to their progress guarantees. In sum, this paper captures for the first time an inherent trade-off between the degree of concurrency a HyTM provides between hardware and software transactions, and the amount of instrumentation overhead the implementation must incur.

We demonstrate the experimental implementation of an optical lattice that allows for the generation of large homogeneous and tunable artificial magnetic fields with ultracold atoms. Using laser-assisted tunneling in a tilted optical potential we engineer spatially dependent complex tunneling amplitudes. Thereby atoms hopping in the lattice accumulate a phase shift equivalent to the Aharonov-Bohm phase of charged particles in a magnetic field. We determine the local distribution of fluxes through the observation of cyclotron orbits of the atoms on lattice plaquettes, showing that the system is described by the Hofstadter model. Furthermore, we show that for two atomic spin states with opposite magnetic moments, our system naturally realizes the time-reversal symmetric Hamiltonian underlying the quantum spin Hall effect, i.e., two different spin components experience opposite directions of the magnetic field.

The most popular image matching algorithm SIFT, introduced by D. Lowe a decade ago, has proven to be sufficiently scale invariant to be used in numerous applications. In practice, however, scale invariance may be weakened by various sources of error inherent to the SIFT implementation affecting the stability and accuracy of keypoint detection. The density of the sampling of the Gaussian scale-space and the level of blur in the input image are two of these sources. This article presents a numerical analysis of their impact on the extracted keypoints stability. Such an analysis has both methodological and practical implications, on how to compare feature detectors and on how to improve SIFT. We show that even with a significantly oversampled scale-space numerical errors prevent from achieving perfect stability. Usual strategies to filter out unstable detections are shown to be inefficient. We also prove that the effect of the error in the assumption on the initial blur is asymmetric and that the method is strongly degraded in presence of aliasing or without a correct assumption on the camera blur.

The rapid growth of scientific literature has made it difficult for the researchers to quickly learn about the developments in their respective fields. Scientific document summarization addresses this challenge by providing summaries of the important contributions of scientific papers. We present a framework for scientific summarization which takes advantage of the citations and the scientific discourse structure. Citation texts often lack the evidence and context to support the content of the cited paper and are even sometimes inaccurate. We first address the problem of inaccuracy of the citation texts by finding the relevant context from the cited paper. We propose three approaches for contextualizing citations which are based on query reformulation, word embeddings, and supervised learning. We then train a model to identify the discourse facets for each citation. We finally propose a method for summarizing scientific papers by leveraging the faceted citations and their corresponding contexts. We evaluate our proposed method on two scientific summarization datasets in the biomedical and computational linguistics domains. Extensive evaluation results show that our methods can improve over the state of the art by large margins.

The ability to have multiple magnetic robots operate independently in the same workspace would increase the clinical potential of these systems allowing collaborative operation. In this work, we investigate the feasibility of actuating two magnetic robots operating within the same workspace using external permanent magnets. Unlike actuation systems based on pairs of electromagnetic coils, the use of multiple permanent magnets comes with the advantage of a large workspace which better suits the clinical setting. In this work, we present an optimization routine capable of generating the required poses for the external magnets in order to control the position and orientation of two magnetic robots. We show that at a distance of 15cm, minimal coupling between the magnetic robots can be achieved (3.9\% crosstalk) each embedded with 5mm diameter, 5mm length NdFeB magnets. At smaller distances, we observe that the ability to independently control the robot torques decreases, but forces can still achieve independent control even with alignment of the robots. We test our developed control system in a simulation of two magnetic robots following pre-planned trajectories in close proximity (60 mm) showing a mean positional error of 8.7 mm and mean angular error of 16.7 degrees.

A Moreton wave was detected in active region (AR) 12017 on 29 March 2014 with very high cadence with the Halpha Solar Telescope for Argentina (HASTA) in association with an X1.0 flare (SOL2014-03-29T17:48). Several other phenomena took place in connection with this event, such as low coronal waves and a coronal mass ejection (CME). We analyze the association between the Moreton wave and the EUV signatures observed with the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory. These include their low-coronal surface-imprint, and the signatures of the full wave and shock dome propagating outward in the corona. We also study their relation to the white-light CME. We perform a kinematic analysis by tracking the wavefronts in several directions. This analysis reveals a high-directional dependence of accelerations and speeds determined from data at various wavelengths. We speculate that a region of open magnetic field lines northward of our defined radiant point sets favorable conditions for the propagation of a coronal magnetohydrodynamic shock in this direction. The hypothesis that the Moreton wavefront is produced by a coronal shock-wave that pushes the chromosphere downward is supported by the high compression ratio in that region. Furthermore, we propose a 3D geometrical model to explain the observed wavefronts as the chromospheric and low-coronal traces of an expanding and outward-traveling bubble intersecting the Sun. The results of the model are in agreement with the coronal shock-wave being generated by a 3D piston that expands at the speed of the associated rising filament. The piston is attributed to the fast ejection of the filament-CME ensemble, also consistent with the good match between the speed profiles of the low-coronal and white-light shock-waves.

Continuous weak or fuzzy measurement of the Rabi oscillation of a two level atom subjected to a $\pi-$pulse of a resonant light field is simulated numerically. We thereby address the question whether it is possible to measure characteristic features of the motion of the state of a single quantum system in real time. We compare two schemes of continuous measurement: continuous measurement with constant fuzziness and with fuzziness changing in the course of the measurement. Because the sensitivity of the Rabi atom to the influence of the measurement depends on the state of the atom, it is possible to optimize the continuous fuzzy measurement by varying its fuzziness.

Data Fusion Challenges Privacy: What Can Privacy Regulation Do?

This paper focuses on some shortcomings in current privacy and data protection regulations' ability to adequately address the ramifications of AI-driven data processing practices, in particular where data sets are combined and processed by AI systems. We raise attention to two regulatory anomalies related to two fundamental assumptions underlying traditional privacy and data protection approaches: (1) Only Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Personal Data (PD) require privacy protection: Privacy and data protection regulations are only triggered with respect to PII/PD, but not anonymous data. This is not only problematic because determining whether data falls in the former or latter category is no longer straightforward, but also because privacy risks associated with data processing may exist whether or not an individual can be identified. (2) Given sufficient information provided in a transparent and understandable manner, individuals are able to adequately assess the privacy implications of their actions and protect their privacy interests: However, relying on human privacy expectations fails to address important privacy threats, because those expectations are at odds with the actual privacy implications of data processing practices, as most people lack the necessary technical literacy to understand the sophisticated technologies at play, and to correctly assess their privacy implications. To tackle these anomalies we recommend regulatory reform in two directions: (1) Abolishing the distinction between personal and anonymized data for the purposes of triggering the application of privacy and data protection regulations and (2) developing methods to prioritize regulatory intervention based on the level of privacy risk posed by individual data processing actions.

The paper provides a description of the two recent approximation algorithms for the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problem, giving the intuitive description of the works of Feige-Singh[1] and Asadpour et.al\ [2].\newline [1] improves the previous $O(\log n)$ approximation algorithm, by improving the constant from 0.84 to 0.66 and modifying the work of Kaplan et. al\ [3] and also shows an efficient reduction from ATSPP to ATSP. Combining both the results, they finally establish an approximation ratio of $\left(\frac{4}{3}+\epsilon \right)\log n$ for ATSPP,\ considering a small $\epsilon>0$,\ improving the work of Chekuri and Pal.[4]\newline Asadpour et.al, in their seminal work\ [2], gives an $O\left(\frac{\log n}{\log \log n}\right)$ randomized algorithm for the ATSP, by symmetrizing and modifying the solution of the Held-Karp relaxation problem and then proving an exponential family distribution for probabilistically constructing a maximum entropy spanning tree from a spanning tree polytope and then finally defining the thin-ness property and transforming a thin spanning tree into an Eulerian walk.\ The optimization methods used in\ [2] are quite elegant and the approximation ratio could further be improved, by manipulating the thin-ness of the cuts.

We find that single spin asymmetries in NRQCD are non-vanishing in general. They are proportional to the imaginary parts of some non-perturbative matrix elements. With statistics of about 10^6 identified J/psi's, or 10^5 identified chi_2, it is possible to measure these imaginary parts even if they are an order of magnitude smaller than the real parts. Such statistics are quite reasonable at polarised HERA N and other future experiments.

The dynamo effect is the most popular candidate to explain the non-primordial magnetic fields of astrophysical objects. Although many systematic studies of parameters have already been made to determine the different dynamical regimes explored by direct numerical geodynamo simulations, it is only recently that the regime corresponding to the outer core of the Earth characterized by a balance of forces between the Coriolis and Lorentz forces is accessible numerically. In most previous studies, the Lorentz force played a relatively minor role. For example, they have shown that a purely hydrodynamic parameter (the local Rossby number $Ro_\ell$ determines the stability domain of dynamos dominated by the axial dipole (dipolar dynamos). In this study, we show that this result cannot hold when the Lorentz force becomes dominant. We model turbulent geodynamo simulations with a strong Lorentz force by varying the important parameters over several orders of magnitude. This method enables us to question previous results and to argue on the applications of numerical dynamos in order to better understand the geodynamo problem. Strong dipolar fields considerably affect the kinetic energy distribution of convective motions which enables the maintenance of this field configuration. The relative importance of each force depends on the spatial length scale, whereas $Ro_\ell$ is a global output parameter which ignores the spatial dependency. We show that inertia does not induce a dipole collapse as long as the Lorentz and the Coriolis forces remain dominant at large length scales.

In this paper we obtain a new solution of a brane made up of a scalar field coupled to a dilaton. There is a unique parameter $b$ in the solution, which decides the distribution of the energy density and will effect the localization of bulk matter fields. For free vector fields, we find that the zero mode can be localized on the brane. And for vector fields coupled with the dilaton via $\text{e}^{\tau\pi}F_{MN}F^{MN}$, the condition for localizing the zero mode is $\tau\geq-\sqrt{b/3}$ with $0<b\leq1$, or $\tau>-1/\sqrt{3b}$ with $b>1$, which includes the case $\tau=0$. While the zero mode for free Kalb-Ramond fields can not be localized on the brane, if only we introduce a coupling between the Kalb-Ramond fields and the dilaton via $\text{e}^{\zeta \pi}H_{MNL}H^{MNL}$. When the coupling constant satisfies $\zeta>1/\sqrt{3b}$ with $b\geq1$ or $\zeta>\frac{2-b}{\sqrt{3b}}$ with $0<b<1$, the zero mode for the KR fields can be localized on the brane. For spin half fermion fields, we consider the coupling $\eta\bar{\Psi}\text{e}^{\lambda \pi}\phi\Psi$ between the fermions and the background scalars with positive Yukawa coupling $\eta$. The effective potentials for both chiral fermions have three types of shapes decided by the relation between the dilaton-fermion coupling constant $\lambda$ and the parameter $b$. For $\lambda\leq-1/\sqrt{3b}$, the zero mode of left-chiral fermion can be localized on the brane. While for $\lambda>-1/\sqrt{3b}$ with $b>1$ or $-1/\sqrt{3b}<\lambda<-\sqrt{b/3}$ with $0<b\leq1$, the zero mode for left-chiral fermion also can be localized.

Role of stress-assisted martensite in the design of strong ultrafine-grained duplex steels

This work explains the occurrence of transformation-induced plasticity via stress-assisted martensite, when designing ultrafine-grained duplex steels. It is found that, when the austenite is reduced to a fine scale of about 300 nm, the initial deformation-induced microstructure can be dominated by parallel lamellae of epsilon martensite or mechanical twinning, which cannot efficiently provide nucleation sites for strain-induced martensite. Hence, alpha martensite nucleation occurs independently by a stress-assisted process that enhances transformation-induced plasticity in ultrafine-grained austenite. This metallurgical principle was validated experimentally by using a combination of transmission Kikuchi diffraction mapping, transmission electron microscopy, and atom probe microscopy, and demonstrated theoretically by the thermodynamics model of stress-assisted martensite.

The universal thermodynamic relations between corrections to entropy and extremality for various black holes solutions have been studied. In this regard, we hereby consider a number of different black brane solutions in different structures for perturbative corrections to general relativity. These are, namely, black brane solution in Rastall AdS massive gravity, Einstein-Yang-Mills AdS black brane solution in massive gravity and general anisotropic black brane in Horava-Lifshitz gravity. We calculate both the entropy and extremality bound by introducing a small constant correction to the action. Remarkably, we find that black brane violates the universal thermodynamic relations. In other words, a universal relation between corrections to entropy and extremality are not valid in the black brane structure.

Accurately predicting the real-life performance of algorithms solving the Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP) in the context of Mobility on Demand (MoD) systems with ridesharing requires evaluating them on representative instances. However, the benchmarking of state-of-the-art DARP solution methods has been limited to small, artificial instances or outdated non-public instances, hindering direct comparisons. With the rise of large MoD systems and the availability of open travel demand datasets for many US cities, there is now an opportunity to evaluate these algorithms on standardized, realistic, and representative instances. Despite the significant challenges involved in processing obfuscated and diverse datasets, we have developed a methodology using which we have created a comprehensive set of large-scale demand instances based on real-world data. These instances cover diverse use cases, one of which is demonstrated in an evaluation of two established DARP methods: the insertion heuristic and optimal vehicle-group assignment method. We publish the full results of both methods in a standardized format. The results show significant differences between areas in all measured quantities, emphasizing the importance of evaluating methods across different cities.

A layer-by-layer description of the asymmetric lattice gas model for 1/f-noise suggested by Jensen [Phys. Rev. Lett. 64, 3103 (1990)] is presented. The power spectra of the lattice layers in the direction perpendicular to the particle flux is studied in order to understand how the white noise at the input boundary evolves, on the average, into 1/f-noise for the system. The effects of high boundary drive and uniform driving force on the power spectrum of the total number of diffusing particles are considered. In the case of nearest-neighbor particle interactions, high statistics simulation results show that the power spectra of single lattice layers are characterized by different $\beta_x$ exponents such that $\beta_x \to 1.9$ as one approaches the outer boundary.

The notion of a compact object immune to the horizon problem and comprising an anisotropic inhomogeneous fluid with a specific radial pressure behavior, i.e. the gravastar, is extended by introducing an electrically charged component. Einstein-Maxwell field equations are solved in the asymptotically de Sitter interior where a source of the electric field is coupled to the fluid energy density. Two different solutions which satisfy the dominant energy condition are given: one is the delta-shell model for which the analysis is carried out within Israel's thin shell formalism, the other approach - the continuous profile model - is solved numerically and the interior solutions have been (smoothly) joined with the Reissner-Nordstrom exterior. The effect of electric charge is considered, and the equation of state, the speed of sound and the surface redshift are calculated for both models.

A Sufficient Condition for J\'onsson's Conjecture and its Relationship with Finite Semidistributive lattices

This article is part of my upcoming masters thesis which investigates the following open problem from the book, Free Lattices, by R.Freese, J.Jezek, and J.B. Nation published in 1995: "Which lattices (and in particular which countable lattices) are sublattices of a free lattice?" Despite partial progress over the decades, the problem is still unsolved. There is emphasis on the countable case because the current body of knowledge on sublattices of free lattices is most concentrated on when these sublattices are countably infinite. It is known that sublattices of free lattices which are finite can be characterized as being those lattices which satisfy Whitman's condition and are semidistributive. This assertion was conjectured by B. Jonsson in the 1960's and proven by J.B. Nation in 1980. However, there is a desire for a new proof to this deep result as Nation's proof is very involved and more insight into sublattices of free lattices is sought after. In this article, a sufficient condition involving a construct known as a join minimal pair, or just a minimal pair, implying J'onsson's conjecture is proven. Minimal pairs were first defined by H. Gaskill when analysing sharply transferable lattices. Using this sufficient condition, research by I.Rival and B.Sands is used to compare this condition with properties of finite semidistributive lattices and in the process refute the main assertion of a manuscript by H.Muhle. Moreover, inspired by the approaches used by Henri Muhle, I will make a partial result which investigates a possible forbidden sublattice characterization involving breadth-two planar semidistributive lattices. To the best of my knowledge, the two results of this article (the sufficient condition for Jonsson's conjecture and the partial result aforementioned) are new.

Motivated by the experiments by Zrenner et al. [Nature 418, 612 (2002)], we study the influence of relaxation processes on converting Rabi oscillations in a strongly biased single-quantum-dot photodiode into deterministic photocurrents. We show that the behavior of a quantum dot with different tunnel rates for electron and holes is qualitatively different from that with the equal tunnel rates: in the latter case the current shows attenuating oscillations with the Rabi frequency. In contrast, for different electrons and holes tunnelling rates, the frequency of these oscillations diminishes, and they disappear beyond a definite asymmetry threshold. We give an analytical solution of the problem and a numerical example showing a different behaviour of the transferred charge in the small attenuation limit for equal and different tunnel rates for electrons and holes.

This is the first two-loop computation of a soft function involving three light-cone directions. With the result, the threshold resummation for these processes can now be performed at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy.

A framework consists of an undirected graph $G$ and a matroid $M$ whose elements correspond to the vertices of $G$. Recently, Fomin et al. [SODA 2023] and Eiben et al. [ArXiV 2023] developed parameterized algorithms for computing paths of rank $k$ in frameworks. More precisely, for vertices $s$ and $t$ of $G$, and an integer $k$, they gave FPT algorithms parameterized by $k$ deciding whether there is an $(s,t)$-path in $G$ whose vertex set contains a subset of elements of $M$ of rank $k$. These algorithms are based on Schwartz-Zippel lemma for polynomial identity testing and thus are randomized, and therefore the existence of a deterministic FPT algorithm for this problem remains open. We present the first deterministic FPT algorithm that solves the problem in frameworks whose underlying graph $G$ is planar. While the running time of our algorithm is worse than the running times of the recent randomized algorithms, our algorithm works on more general classes of matroids. In particular, this is the first FPT algorithm for the case when matroid $M$ is represented over rationals. Our main technical contribution is the nontrivial adaptation of the classic irrelevant vertex technique to frameworks to reduce the given instance to one of bounded treewidth. This allows us to employ the toolbox of representative sets to design a dynamic programming procedure solving the problem efficiently on instances of bounded treewidth.

Background: By the beginning of December 2020, some vaccines against COVID-19 already presented efficacy and security, which qualify them to be used in mass vaccination campaigns. Thus, setting up strategies of vaccination became crucial to control the COVID19 pandemic. Methods: We use daily COVID-19 reports from Chicago and NYC from 01-Mar2020 to 28- Nov-2020 to estimate the parameters of an SEIR-like epidemiological model that accounts for different severity levels. To achieve data adherent predictions, we let the model parameters to be time-dependent. The model is used to forecast different vaccination scenarios, where the campaign starts at different dates, from 01-Oct-2020 to 01-Apr-2021. To generate realistic scenarios, disease control strategies are implemented whenever the number of predicted daily hospitalizations reaches a preset threshold. Results: The model reproduces the empirical data with remarkable accuracy. Delaying the vaccination severely affects the mortality, hospitalization, and recovery projections. In Chicago, the disease spread was under control, reducing the mortality increment as the start of the vaccination was postponed. In NYC, the number of cases was increasing, thus, the estimated model predicted a much larger impact, despite the implementation of contention measures. The earlier the vaccination campaign begins, the larger is its potential impact in reducing the COVID-19 cases, as well as in the hospitalizations and deaths. Moreover, the rate at which cases, hospitalizations and deaths increase with the delay in the vaccination beginning strongly depends on the shape of the incidence of infection in each city.

We prove that groups for which every countable subgroup is free ($\aleph_1$-free groups) are n-slender, cm-slender, and lcH-slender. In particular every homomorphism from a completely metrizable group to an $\aleph_1$-free group has an open kernel. We also show that $\aleph_1$-free abelian groups are lcH-slender, which is especially interesting in light of the fact that some $\aleph_1$-free abelian groups are neither n- nor cm-slender. The strongly $\aleph_1$-free abelian groups are shown to be n-, cm-, and lcH-slender. We also give a characterization of cm- and lcH-slender abelian groups.

The LIGO/Virgo Collaboration has recently observed GW190521, the first binary black hole merger with at least the primary component mass in the mass gap predicted by the pair-instability supernova theory. This observation disfavors the standard stellar-origin formation scenario for the heavier black hole, motivating alternative hypotheses. We show that GW190521 cannot be explained within the Primordial Black Hole (PBH) scenario if PBHs do not accrete during their cosmological evolution, since this would require an abundance which is already in tension with current constraints. On the other hand, GW190521 may have a primordial origin if PBHs accrete efficiently before the reionization epoch.

The origin of subluminous B stars is still an unsolved problem in stellar evolution. Single star as well as close binary evolution scenarios have been invoked but until now have met with little success. We have carried out a small survey of spectroscopic binary candidates (19 systems consisting of an sdB star and late type companion) with the Planetary Camera of the WFPC2 onboard Hubble Space Telescope to test these scenarios. Monte Carlo simulations indicate that by imaging the programme stars in the R-band about one third of the sample (6-7 stars) should be resolved at a limiting angular resolution of 0.1" if they have linear separations like main sequence stars ("single star evolution"). None should be resolvable if all systems were produced by close binary evolution. In addition we expect three triple systems to be present in our sample. Most of these, if not all, should be resolvable. Components were resolved in 6 systems with separations between 0.2" and 4.5". However, only in two systems do the magnitudes of the resolved components match the expectations from the deconvolution of the spectral energy distribution. These two stars could be physical binaries whereas in the other cases the nearby star may be a chance projection or a third component. Radial velocity measurements indicate that the resolved system TON 139 is a triple system, with the sdB having a close companion that does not contribute detectably to the integrated light of the system. Accordingly the success rate would be only 5% which is clearly below the prediction for single star evolution. We conclude that the distribution of separations of sdB binaries deviates strongly from that of normal stars. Our results add further evidence that close binary evolution is fundamental for the evolution of sdB stars. (abbreviated)

This letter expands the stability criterion for radially stratified, vertically {unstratified} accretion disks incorporating thermal relaxation. We find a linear amplification of epicyclic oscillations in these disks that depends on the effective cooling time, i.e. an overstability. The growth rates of the overstability vanish for both extreme cases, e.g. infinite cooling time and instantaneous cooling, i.e. the adiabatic and fully isothermal cases. However, for thermal relaxation times $\tau$ on the order of the orbital frequency, $\tau\Omega \sim 1$, modes grow at a rate proportional to the square of the Brunt-V\"ais\"al\"a frequency. The overstability is based on epicyclic motions, with the thermal relaxation causing gas to heat while radially displaced inwards, and cool while radially displaced outwards. This causes the gas to have a lower density when moving outwards compared to when it moves inwards, so it feels the outwards directed pressure force more strongly on that leg of the journey. We suggest the term ``Convective Overstability" for the phenomenon that has already been numerically studied in the non-linear regime in the context of amplifying vortices in disks, under the name ``Subcritical Baroclinic Instability". The point of the present paper is to make clear that vortex formation in three-dimensional disks is neither subcritical, i.e. does not need a finite perturbation, nor is it baroclinic in the sense of geophysical fluid dynamics, which requires on vertical shear. We find that Convective Overstability is a linear instability that will operate under a wide range of physical conditions for circumstellar disks.

To investigate the internal structure of the nucleon, it is useful to introduce quantities that do not transform properly under Lorentz symmetry, such as the four-momentum of the quarks in the nucleon, the amount of the nucleon spin contributed by quark spin, etc. In this paper, we discuss to what extent these quantities do provide Lorentz-invariant descriptions of the nucleon structure.

The magnetization plateaus of $p$-merized $S=1/2$ XXZ chains are studied for general values of $p$. Two plateau-non-plateau critical lines and one plateau-plateau critical line are found for each value of $p$. The universality class of the plateau-non-plateau transition belongs to Brezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) type and that of the plateau-plateau transition, to the Gaussian type. The critical points are determined by level spectroscopic analysis of the numerical diagonalization results for $4 \le p \le 8$. The multicritical points are calculated using the integral equations based on the Bethe ansatz solution of the XXZ model. The behavior of multicritical points are analyzed in detail for large $p$. It is found that the plateau region is enhanced with the increase of periodicity $p$ although the non-plateau region persists as far as $p$ is finite.

We focus on the majority model in a topology consisting of two coupled fully-connected networks, thereby mimicking the existence of communities in social networks. We show that a transition takes place at a value of the inter-connectivity parameter. Above this value, only symmetric solutions prevail, where both communities agree with each other and reach consensus. Below this value, in contrast, the communities can reach opposite opinions and an asymmetric state is attained. The importance of the interface between the sub-networks is shown.
