We study a general Majorana junction, where N helical nanowires are connected to a common s-wave superconductor proximity-inducing Majorana bound states in the wires. The normal part of each wire (j=1,...,N) acts as connected lead, where electrons can tunnel into the respective Majorana state \gamma_{A,j}. The Majorana states at the other end, \gamma_{B,j}, are coupled to each other by an arbitrary tunnel matrix. We examine the conditions for even-odd parity effects in the tunnel conductance for various junction topologies.

Let $g$ be a holomorphic map of $B$, where $B$ is the unit ball of ${C}^n$. Let $0<p<+\infty, -n-1<q<+\infty$, $q>-1$ and $\alpha>0$. This paper gives some necessary and sufficient conditions for the Extended Ces$\acute{a}$ro Operators induced by $g$ to be bounded or compact between generalized Besov space $B(p,q)$ and $\alpha$- Bloch space ${\mathcal B}^\alpha.$

Users posting online expect to remain anonymous unless they have logged in, which is often needed for them to be able to discuss freely on various topics. Preserving the anonymity of a text's writer can be also important in some other contexts, e.g., in the case of witness protection or anonymity programs. However, each person has his/her own style of writing, which can be analyzed using stylometry, and as a result, the true identity of the author of a piece of text can be revealed even if s/he has tried to hide it. Thus, it could be helpful to design automatic tools that can help a person obfuscate his/her identity when writing text. In particular, here we propose an approach that changes the text, so that it is pushed towards average values for some general stylometric characteristics, thus making the use of these characteristics less discriminative. The approach consists of three main steps: first, we calculate the values for some popular stylometric metrics that can indicate authorship; then we apply various transformations to the text, so that these metrics are adjusted towards the average level, while preserving the semantics and the soundness of the text; and finally, we add random noise. This approach turned out to be very efficient, and yielded the best performance on the Author Obfuscation task at the PAN-2016 competition.

Theoretical predictions for ttbb production are of crucial importance for ttH measurements in the H->bb channel at the LHC. To address the large uncertainties associated with the modelling of extra QCD radiation in ttbb events, in this paper we present a calculation of pp->ttbbj at NLO QCD. The behaviour of NLO corrections is analysed in a variety of observables, and to assess theoretical uncertainties we use factor-two rescalings as well as different dynamic scales. In this context, we propose a systematic alignment of dynamic scales that makes it possible to disentangle normalisation and shape uncertainties in a transparent way. Scale uncertainties at NLO are typically at the level of 20-30% in fiducial cross sections, and below 10% for the shapes of distributions. The kinematics of QCD radiation is investigated in detail, including the effects of its recoil on the objects of the ttbb system. In particular, we discuss various azimuthal correlations that allow one to charaterise the QCD recoil pattern in a precise and transparent way. In general, the calculation at hand provides a variety of precise benchmarks that can be used to validate the modelling of QCD radiation in ttbb generators. Moreover, as we will argue, pp->ttbbj at NLO entails information that can be used to gain insights into the perturbative convergence of the inclusive ttbb cross section beyond NLO. Based on this idea, we address the issue of the large NLO K-factor observed in the ttbb cross section, and we provide evidence that supports the reduction of this K-factor through a mild adjustment of the QCD scales that are conventionally used for this process. The presented 2->5 NLO calculations have been carried out using OpenLoops 2 in combination with Sherpa and Munich.

In this paper, we show empirical evidence on how to construct the optimal feature selection or input representation used by the input layer of a feedforward neural network for the propose of forecasting spatial-temporal signals. The approach is based on results from dynamical systems theory, namely the non-linear embedding theorems. We demonstrate it for a variety of spatial-temporal signals, with one spatial and one temporal dimensions, and show that the optimal input layer representation consists of a grid, with spatial/temporal lags determined by the minimum of the mutual information of the spatial/temporal signals and the number of points taken in space/time decided by the embedding dimension of the signal. We present evidence of this proposal by running a Monte Carlo simulation of several combinations of input layer feature designs and show that the one predicted by the non-linear embedding theorems seems to be optimal or close of optimal. In total we show evidence in four unrelated systems: a series of coupled Henon maps; a series of couple Ordinary Differential Equations (Lorenz-96) phenomenologically modelling atmospheric dynamics; the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation, a partial differential equation used in studies of instabilities in laminar flame fronts and finally real physical data from sunspot areas in the Sun (in latitude and time) from 1874 to 2015.

We demonstrate how to calculate perturbative components of the structure functions F_1 (for unpolarized DIS) and g_1 (spin-dependent DIS) in Double-Logarithmic Approximation, studying separately the cases of fixed and running QCD coupling. We show that as long as only ladder graphs are accounted for (throughout the talk we use the Feynman gauge for virtual gluons) there is no difference at all between F_1 and g_1. However, accounting for contributions of non-ladder graphs brings an essential difference between them. Applying the Saddle-Point method to the obtained expressions for F_1 and g_1 allows us to arrive at their small-x asymptotics. The both asymptotics are of the Regge kind but with different intercepts. The intercept of F_1 proved to be greater than unity, so it is a new contribution to Pomeron. Finally, we discuss the applicability region of the Regge asymptotics and demonstrate that inappropriate replacement of F_1 and g_1 by their asymptotics outside the applicability region can lead to introducing phenomenological Pomerons for both unploarized and spin-dependent processes.

The coherent manipulation of the atomic matter waves is of great interest both in science and technology. In order to study how an atom optic device alters the coherence of an atomic beam, we consider the quantum lens proposed by Averbukh et al [1] to show the discrete nature of the electromagnetic field. We extend the analysis of this quantum lens to the study of another essentially quantum property present in the focusing process, i.e., the atom-field entanglement, and show how the initial atomic coherence and purity are affected by the entanglement. The dynamics of this process is obtained in closed form. We calculate the beam quality factor and the trace of the square of the reduced density matrix as a function of the average photon number in order to analyze the coherence and purity of the atomic beam during the focusing process.

Observability is a key aspect of the state estimation problem of SLAM, However, the dimension and variables of SLAM system might be changed with new features, to which little attention is paid in the previous work. In this paper, a unified approach of observability analysis for SLAM system is provided, whether the dimension and variables of SLAM system are changed or not, we can use this approach to analyze the local or total observability of the SLAM system.

We present first results of a study of the halo kinematics for a sample of early type galaxies using planetary nebulae (PNe) as kinematical tracers. PNe allow to extend up to several effective radii (Re) the information from absorption line kinematics (confined to within 1 or 2 Re), providing valuable information and constraints for merger simulations and galaxy formation models. We find that the specific angular momentum per unit mass has a more complex radial dependence when the halo region is taken into account and that the halo velocity dispersion is related to the total galaxy luminosity, isophotal shape, and number of PNe per unit of luminosity

We have carried out the observations of the OMC-2 FIR 3/4 region with the NMA and ASTE in the H$^{13}$CO$^{+}$ (1--0), $^{12}$CO (3--2, 1--0), SiO ($v$=0, $J$=2--1), CS (2--1), and CH$_3$OH ($J_K$=7$_K$--6$_K$) lines and in the 3.3 mm continuum emission. Our NMA observations in the H$^{13}$CO$^{+}$ emission have revealed 0.07 pc-scale dense gas associated with FIR 4. The $^{12}$CO (3--2,1--0) emission shows high-velocity blue and red shifted components at the both north-east and south-west of FIR 3, suggesting a molecular outflow nearly along the plane of the sky driven by FIR 3. The SiO and the CH$_{3}$OH emission are detected around the interface between the outflow and the dense gas. Furthermore, the $^{12}$CO (1--0) emission shows an L-shaped structure in the P-V diagram. These results imply presence of the shock due to the interaction between the molecular outflow driven by FIR 3 and the dense gas associated with FIR 4. Moreover, our high angular-resolution observations of FIR 4 in the 3.3 mm continuum emission have first found that FIR 4 consists of eleven dusty cores. The separation among these cores is on the same order of the Jeans length, suggesting that the fragmentation into these cores has been caused by the gravitational instability. The time scale of the fragmentation is similar to the time scale of the interaction between the molecular outflow and the dense gas. We suggest that the interaction between the molecular outflow from FIR 3 and the dense gas associated with FIR 4 triggered the fragmentation into these dusty cores, and hence the next generation the cluster formation.

Thermal attenuator channels model the decoherence of quantum systems interacting with a thermal bath, e.g., a two-level system subject to thermal noise and an electromagnetic signal travelling through a fiber or in free-space. Hence determining the quantum capacity of these channels is an outstanding open problem for quantum computation and communication. Here we derive several upper bounds on the quantum capacity of qubit and bosonic thermal attenuators. We introduce an extended version of such channels which is degradable and hence has a single-letter quantum capacity, bounding that of the original thermal attenuators. Another bound for bosonic attenuators is given by the bottleneck inequality applied to a particular channel decomposition. With respect to previously known bounds we report better results in a broad range of attenuation and noise: we can now approximate the quantum capacity up to a negligible uncertainty for most practical applications, e.g., for low thermal noise.

Our results extend works by Chiad\`o Piat-Coscia, Fan-Zhao and Giusti-Giaquinta.

We investigate the redshift and luminosity evolution of the galaxy colour-density relation using the data from the First Epoch VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). The size (6582 galaxies), depth (I_AB<=24) and redshift sampling rate of the survey enable us to reconstruct the 3D galaxy environment on relatively local scales (R=5 Mpc) up to z~1.5. Particular attention has been devoted to calibrate a density reconstruction scheme, which factors out survey selection effects and reproduces in an unbiased way the underlying `real' galaxy environment. While at lower redshift we confirm the existence of a steep colour-density relation, with the fraction of the reddest(/bluest) galaxies of the same luminosity increasing(/decreasing) as a function of density, this trend progressively disappears in the highest redshift bins investigated. The rest frame u*-g' colour-magnitude diagram shows a bimodal pattern in both low and high density environments up to z~1.5. We find that the bimodal distribution is not universal but strongly depends upon environment: at lower redshifts the colour-magnitude diagrams in low and high density regions are significantly different while the progressive weakening of the colour-density relation causes the two bimodal distributions to nearly mirror each other in the highest redshift bin investigated. Both the colour-density and the colour-magnitude-density relations appear to be a transient, cumulative product of genetic and environmental factors operating over at least a period of 9 Gyr. These findings support an evolutionary scenario in which star formation/gas depletion processes are accelerated in more luminous objects and in high density environments: star formation activity is shifting with cosmic time towards lower luminosity (downsizing), and out of high density environments.

We present a family of spherically symmetric multi-horizon spacetimes with a vacuum dark fluid, associated with a time-dependent and spatially inhomogeneous cosmological term. The vacuum dark fluid is defined in a model-independent way by the symmetry of its stress-energy tensor, i.e., its invariance under Lorentz boosts in a distinguished spatial direction ($p_r=-\rho$ for spherical symmetry), which makes the dark fluid essentially anisotropic and allows its density to evolve. The related cosmological models belong to the Lemaitre class of models with anisotropic fluids and describe a universe with several scales of vacuum energy related to phase transitions during its evolution. The typical behavior of solutions and the number of spacetime horizons are determined by the number of vacuum scales. We study in detail a model with three vacuum scales: GUT, QCD and that responsible for the present accelerated expansion. The model parameters are fixed by the observational data and by analyticity and causality conditions. We find that our Universe has three horizons. During the first inflation the Universe enters a T-region which makes the expansion irreversible. After the second phase transition at the QCD scale the Universe enters an R-region, where for a long time its geometry remains almost pseudo-Euclidean. After crossing the third horizon related to the present vacuum density, the Universe should enter the next T-region with inevitable expansion.

We study sensor networks with energy harvesting nodes. The generated energy at a node can be stored in a buffer. A sensor node periodically senses a random field and generates a packet. These packets are stored in a queue and transmitted using the energy available at that time at the node. For such networks we develop efficient energy management policies. First, for a single node, we obtain policies that are throughput optimal, i.e., the data queue stays stable for the largest possible data rate. Next we obtain energy management policies which minimize the mean delay in the queue. We also compare performance of several easily implementable suboptimal policies. A greedy policy is identified which, in low SNR regime, is throughput optimal and also minimizes mean delay. Next using the results for a single node, we develop efficient MAC policies.

We draw a comparison between AGN and Galactic black hole binaries using a uniform description of spectral energy distribution of these two classes of accreting X-ray sources. We parametrize spectra of GBHs with an alpha_GBH parameter which we define as a slope of a nominal power law function between 3 and 20 keV. We show that this parameter can be treated as an equivalent of the X-ray loudness, alpha_OX, used to describe AGN spectra. We do not find linear correlation between the alpha_GBH and disc flux (similar to that between alpha_OX and optical/UV luminosity found in AGN). Instead, we show that alpha_GBH follows a well defined pattern during a GBH outburst. We find that alpha_GBH tend to cluster around 1, 1.5 and 2, which correspond to a hard, very high/intermediate and soft spectral state, respectively. We conclude that majority of the observed Type 1 radio quiet AGN are in a spectral state corresponding to a very high/intermediate state of GBHs. The same conclusion is valid for radio loud AGN. We also study variations of the spectral slopes (alpha_GBH and the X-ray photon index, Gamma) as a function of disc and Comptonization fluxes. We discuss these dependencies in the context of correlations of alpha_OX and Gamma with the optical/UV and X-ray 2 keV fluxes considered for AGN and quasars.

The switching behaviour of stilbene molecular system (SMS) device is investigated with the help of non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) approach using first principles calculation. The transmission spectrum of cis-isomers confirmed that more electrons are transferred across the SMS-device using optical excitation by the spin of C$=$C bond by torsion angle $(\theta=180^\circ)$. The current-voltage characteristics show the lower magnitude of current for trans-stilbene and higher magnitude of current for cis-stilbene for an externally applied bias voltage. The outcome of the proposed work suggests that cis and trans-stilbene molecular device can be used as a switch.

We propose a new method to reconstruct data acquired in a local tomography setup. This method uses an initial reconstruction and refines it by correcting the low frequency artifacts known as the cupping effect. A basis of Gaussian functions is used to correct the initial reconstruction. The coefficients of this basis are iteratively optimized under the constraint of a known subregion. Using a coarse basis reduces the degrees of freedom of the problem while actually correcting the cupping effect. Simulations show that the known region constraint yields an unbiased reconstruction, in accordance to uniqueness theorems stated in local tomography.

We find a one-parameter family of Lagrangian descriptions for classical general relativity in terms of tetrads which are not c-numbers. Rather, they obey exotic commutation relations. These noncommutative properties drop out in the metric sector of the theory, where the Christoffel symbols and the Riemann tensor are ordinary commuting objects and they are given by the usual expression in terms of the metric tensor. Although the metric tensor is not a c-number, we argue that all measurements one can make in this theory are associated with c-numbers, and thus that the common invariant sector of our one--parameter family of deformed gauge theories (for the case of zero torsion) is physically equivalent to Einstein's general relativity.

We give a scheme for interpreting shaded tangles as quantum programs, with the property that isotopic tangles yield equivalent programs. We analyze many known quantum programs in this way -- including entanglement manipulation and error correction -- and in each case present a fully-topological formal verification, yielding in several cases substantial new insight into how the program works. We also use our methods to identify several new or generalized procedures.

In this paper we describe a function $F_n:{\bf R}_+ \to {\bf R}_{+}$ such that for any hyperbolic n-manifold $M$ with totally geodesic boundary $\partial M \neq \emptyset$, the volume of $M$ is equal to the sum of the values of $F_n$ on the {\em orthospectrum} of $M$. We derive an integral formula for $F_n$ in terms of elementary functions. We use this to give a lower bound for the volume of a hyperbolic n-manifold with totally geodesic boundary in terms of the area of the boundary.

This is a three step work: i) we explain why quantum point contacts are similar to ballistic quantum dots; ii) we introduce the virtual Kondo state in both systems; iii-1st) this state explains 0.7 structure in point contacts; iii-2nd) formation of the local moment on this state is described by the nearly symmetric Anderson model, we solve it for finite size system having in mind quantum dots. We found one large level spacing $\Delta^\ast \propto (U\Gamma)^{1/2}\gg \Delta$, where $U$ is the charging energy of the virtual state, $\Gamma$ is the spectral width of this state and $\Delta$ is the mean level spacing of whole system. The theory explains periodicity of abnormal level spacing vs gate potential. The theory is in agreement with many experiments.

Brownian ratchet like stochastic theory for the electrochemical membrane system of Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) is developed. The system is characterized by a continuous variable $Q_m(t)$, representing mobile membrane charge density, and a discrete variable $K_t$ representing ion channel conformational dynamics. A Nernst-Planck-Nyquist-Johnson type equilibrium is obtained when multiple conducting ions have a common reversal potential. Detailed balance yields a previously unknown relation between the channel switching rates and membrane capacitance, bypassing Eyring-type explicit treatment of gating charge kinetics. From a molecular structural standpoint, membrane charge $Q_m$ is a more natural dynamic variable than potential $V_m$; our formalism treats $Q_m$-dependent conformational transition rates $\lambda_{ij}$ as intrinsic parameters. Therefore in principle, $\lambda_{ij}$ vs. $V_m$ is experimental protocol dependent,e.g., different from voltage or charge clamping measurements. For constant membrane capacitance per unit area $C_m$ and neglecting membrane potential induced by gating charges, $V_m=Q_m/C_m$, and HH's formalism is recovered. The presence of two types of ions, with different channels and reversal potentials, gives rise to a nonequilibrium steady state with positive entropy production $e_p$. For rapidly fluctuating channels, an expression for $e_p$ is obtained.

The mirror of a projective toric manifold $X_\Sigma$ is given by a Landau-Ginzburg model $(Y,W)$. We introduce a class of Lagrangian submanifolds in $(Y,W)$ and show that, under the SYZ mirror transformation, they can be transformed to torus-invariant hermitian metrics on holomorphic line bundles over $X_\Sigma$. Through this geometric correspondence, we also identify the mirrors of Hermitian-Einstein metrics, which are given by distinguished Lagrangian sections whose potentials satisfy certain Laplace-type equations.

Location privacy has been extensively studied in the literature. However, existing location privacy models are either not rigorous or not customizable, which limits the trade-off between privacy and utility in many real-world applications. To address this issue, we propose a new location privacy notion called PGLP, i.e., \textit{Policy Graph based Location Privacy}, providing a rich interface to release private locations with customizable and rigorous privacy guarantee. First, we design the privacy metrics of PGLP by extending differential privacy. Specifically, we formalize a user's location privacy requirements using a \textit{location policy graph}, which is expressive and customizable. Second, we investigate how to satisfy an arbitrarily given location policy graph under adversarial knowledge. We find that a location policy graph may not always be viable and may suffer \textit{location exposure} when the attacker knows the user's mobility pattern. We propose efficient methods to detect location exposure and repair the policy graph with optimal utility. Third, we design a private location trace release framework that pipelines the detection of location exposure, policy graph repair, and private trajectory release with customizable and rigorous location privacy. Finally, we conduct experiments on real-world datasets to verify the effectiveness of the privacy-utility trade-off and the efficiency of the proposed algorithms.

We study the partition function $Z_{N,\omega}$ and establish exponential concentration of $\log Z_{N,\omega}$ about its mean on the subgaussian scale $\sqrt{N/\log N}$ . This is used to show that $\mathbb{E}[ \log Z_{N,\omega}]$ differs from $N$ times the free energy by an amount which is also subgaussian (i.e. $o(\sqrt{N})$), specifically $O(\sqrt{\frac{N}{\log N}}\log \log N)$.

The interactions of cosmic rays with the solar atmosphere produce secondary particle which can reach the Earth. In this work we present a comprehensive calculation of the yields of secondary particles as gamma-rays, electrons, positrons, neutrons and neutrinos performed with the FLUKA code. We also estimate the intensity at the Sun and the fluxes at the Earth of these secondary particles by folding their yields with the intensities of cosmic rays impinging on the solar surface. The results are sensitive on the assumptions on the magnetic field nearby the Sun and to the cosmic-ray transport in the magnetic field in the inner solar system.

We study the spectroscopic and ionized structural evolution of T Pyx during its 2011 outburst, and also study the variation in degree of polarization during its early phase. Optical spectroscopic data of this system obtained from day 1.28--2415.62 since discovery, and optical, broadband imaging polarimetric observations obtained from day 1.36--29.33 during the early phases of the outburst are used in the study. The physical conditions and the geometry of the ionized structure of the nova ejecta has been modelled for a few epochs using the photo-ionization code, CLOUDY in 1D and pyCloudy in 3D. The spectral evolution of the nova ejecta during its 2011 outburst is similar to that of the previous outbursts. The variation in the line profiles is seen very clearly in the early stages due to good coverage during this period. The line profiles vary from P-Cygni (narrower, deeper and sharper) to emission profiles which are broader and structured, which later become narrower and sharper in the late post-outburst phase. The average ejected mass is estimated to be $7.03\, \times\, 10^{-6}\, M_{\odot}$. The ionized structure of the ejecta is found to be a bipolar conical structure with equatorial rings, with a low inclination angle of $14.75^\circ\, \pm\, 0.65^\circ$.

We propose a hybrid quantum repeater protocol combining the advantages of continuous and discrete variables. The repeater is based on the previous work of Brask et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 160501 (2010)] but we present two ways of improving this protocol. In the previous protocol entangled single-photon states are produced and grown into superpositions of coherent states, known as two-mode cat states. The entanglement is then distributed using homodyne detection. To improve the protocol, we replace the time-consuming non-local growth of cat states with local growth of single-mode cat states, eliminating the need for classical communication during growth. Entanglement is generated in subsequent connection processes. Furthermore the growth procedure is optimized. We review the main elements of the original protocol and present the two modifications. Finally the two protocols are compared and the modified protocol is shown to perform significantly better than the original protocol.

We study in detail the threshold energy dependence of the seasonal variation effect in the energy integrated solar neutrino signal of the Super-Kamiokande detector in the case of the $\nu_{e}\leftrightarrow \nu_{\mu,\tau}$ vacuum oscillation (VO) solution of the solar neutrino problem. We show, in particular, that for the values of $\Delta m^2$ and $\sin^22\theta$ from the VO solution region, the predicted time and threshold e^- energy ($T_{e,Th}$) dependence of the event rate factorize to a high degree of accuracy. As a consequence, the VO generated seasonal variation asymmetry is given by the product of an time-independent function of $T_{e,Th}$ and the standard geometrical asymmetry. For any given $\Delta m^2$ and $\sin^22\theta$ from the VO solution region there exists at least one value of $T_{e,Th}$ from the interval (5 - 11) MeV, for which the seasonal variation effect in the solar neutrino sample of events, formed by recoil electrons with kinetic energy $T_{e} \geq T_{e,Th}$, is either maximal or very close to the maximal; it can vary dramatically with $T_{e,Th}$. Measuring the seasonal effect in each one of a large number of samples corresponding to different values of $T_{e,Th}$ from the indicated interval, say, to $T_{e,Th} = 5; 6; 7;...; 11 MeV$, provides a very effective test of the VO solution. Predictions for the magnitude of the seasonal effect in such samples are given for a large set of representative values of $\Delta m^2$ and $\sin^22\theta$ from the VO solution region.

Semi-bent Boolean functions are interesting from a cryptographic standpoint, since they possess several desirable properties such as having a low and flat Walsh spectrum, which is useful to resist linear cryptanalysis. In this paper, we consider the search of semi-bent functions through a construction based on cellular automata (CA). In particular, the construction defines a Boolean function by computing the XOR of all output cells in the CA. Since the resulting Boolean functions have the same algebraic degree of the CA local rule, we devise a combinatorial algorithm to enumerate all quadratic Boolean functions. We then apply this algorithm to exhaustively explore the space of quadratic rules of up to 6 variables, selecting only those for which our CA-based construction always yields semi-bent functions of up to 20 variables. Finally, we filter the obtained rules with respect to their balancedness, and remark that the semi-bent functions generated through our construction by the remaining rules have a constant number of linear structures.

Noncritical M-theory in 2+1 dimensions has been defined as a double-scaling limit of a nonrelativistic Fermi liquid on a flat two-dimensional plane. Here we study this noncritical M-theory in the limit of high energies, analogous to the \alpha'\to\infty limit of string theory. In the related case of two-dimensional Type 0A strings, it has been argued that the conformal \alpha'\to\infty limit leads to AdS_2 with a propagating fermion whose mass is set by the value of the RR flux. Here we provide evidence that in the high-energy limit, the natural ground state of noncritical M-theory similarly describes the AdS_2\times S^1 spacetime, with a massless propagating fermion. We argue that the spacetime effective theory in this background is captured by a topological higher-spin extension of conformal Chern-Simons gravity in 2+1 dimensions, consistently coupled to a massless Dirac field. Intriguingly, the two-dimensional plane populated by the original nonrelativistic fermions is essentially the twistor space associated with the symmetry group of the AdS_2\times S^1 spacetime; thus, at least in the high-energy limit, noncritical M-theory can be nonperturbatively described as a "Fermi liquid on twistor space."

In the near future various types of low-carbon technologies (LCTs) are expected to be widely employed throughout the United Kingdom. However, the effect that these technologies will have at a household level on the existing low voltage (LV) network is still an area of extensive research. We propose an agent based model that estimates the growth of LCTs within local neighbourhoods, where social influence is imposed. Real-life data from a LV network is used that comprises of many socially diverse neighbourhoods. Both electric vehicle uptake and the combined scenario of electric vehicle and photovoltaic adoption are investigated with this data. A probabilistic approach is outlined, which determines lower and upper bounds for the model response at every neighbourhood. This technique is used to assess the implications of modifying model assumptions and introducing new model features. Moreover, we discuss how the calculation of these bounds can inform future network planning decisions.

The systolic ratio of a contact form on a closed three-manifold is the quotient of the square of the shortest period of closed Reeb orbits by the contact volume. We show that every co-orientable contact structure on any closed three-manifold is defined by a contact form with arbitrarily large systolic ratio. This shows that the many existing systolic inequalities in Finsler and Riemannian geometry are not purely contact-topological phenomena.

A MOSFET threshold voltage extraction method covering the entire range of drain-to-source voltage, from linear to saturation modes, is presented. Transconductance-to-current ratio is obtained from MOSFET transfer characteristics measured at low to high drain voltage. Based on the charge-based modeling approach, a near-constant value of threshold voltage is obtained over the whole range of drain voltage for ideal, long-channel MOSFETs. The method reveals a distinct increase of threshold voltage versus drain voltage for halo-implanted MOSFETs in the low drain voltage range. The method benefits from moderate inversion operation, where high-field effects, such as vertical field mobility reduction and series resistances, are minimal. The present method is applicable over the full range of drain voltage, is fully analytical, easy to be implemented, and provides more consistent results when compared to existing methods.

Fake News Detection (FND) is an essential field in natural language processing that aims to identify and check the truthfulness of major claims in a news article to decide the news veracity. FND finds its uses in preventing social, political and national damage caused due to misrepresentation of facts which may harm a certain section of society. Further, with the explosive rise in fake news dissemination over social media, including images and text, it has become imperative to identify fake news faster and more accurately. To solve this problem, this work investigates a novel multimodal stacked ensemble-based approach (SEMIFND) to fake news detection. Focus is also kept on ensuring faster performance with fewer parameters. Moreover, to improve multimodal performance, a deep unimodal analysis is done on the image modality to identify NasNet Mobile as the most appropriate model for the task. For text, an ensemble of BERT and ELECTRA is used. The approach was evaluated on two datasets: Twitter MediaEval and Weibo Corpus. The suggested framework offered accuracies of 85.80% and 86.83% on the Twitter and Weibo datasets respectively. These reported metrics are found to be superior when compared to similar recent works. Further, we also report a reduction in the number of parameters used in training when compared to recent relevant works. SEMI-FND offers an overall parameter reduction of at least 20% with unimodal parametric reduction on text being 60%. Therefore, based on the investigations presented, it is concluded that the application of a stacked ensembling significantly improves FND over other approaches while also improving speed.

In research problems that involve the use of numerical methods for solving systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), it is often required to select the most efficient method for a particular problem. To solve a Cauchy problem for a system of ODEs, Runge-Kutta methods (explicit or implicit ones, with or without step-size control, etc.) are employed. In that case, it is required to search through many implementations of the numerical method and select coefficients or other parameters of its numerical scheme. This paper proposes a library and scripts for automated generation of routine functions in the Julia programming language for a set of numerical schemes of Runge-Kutta methods. For symbolic manipulations, we use a template substitution tool. The proposed approach to automated generation of program code allows us to use a single template for editing, instead of modifying each individual function to be compared. On the one hand, this provides universality in the implementation of a numerical scheme and, on the other hand, makes it possible to minimize the number of errors in the process of modifying the compared implementations of the numerical method. We consider Runge-Kutta methods without step-size control, embedded methods with step-size control, and Rosenbrock methods with step-size control. The program codes for the numerical schemes, which are generated automatically using the proposed library, are tested by numerical solution of several well-known problems.

A novel parallel patterns library, Groovy Parallel Patterns, is presented which, from the outset, has been designed to exploit more general process parallelism than the usual data and task parallel architectures. The library executes on a standard Java Virtual Machine. The library provides a collection of processes that can be plugged together to form a variety of parallel architectures and is intrinsically its own DSL. A network of processes is guaranteed to be deadlock and livelock free and terminate correctly and this is proved by the use of formal methods. Error capture and a basic logging mechanism have been incorporated. The library enables effective refinement of solutions between process networks which can be checked also using formal methods. A library user is only required to create the required methods as pieces of sequential code, typically taken from extant sequential solutions, which can then be invoked by the processes as required. The utility of the library is demonstrated by several examples including; Monte Carlo Methods, Concordance, Jacobi solutions, N-body problems and Mandelbrot, which is implemented on both a multicore processor and a workstation cluster. The examples are analysed for speedup and efficiency, which show good and consistent performance improvement up to the number of available processor cores and workstations.

We calculate the matrix elements of the gluonic contributions to the energy-momentum tensor for a pion of mass 600 < Mpi < 1100 MeV in quenched lattice QCD. We find that gluons contribute (37 +/- 8 +/- 12)% of the pion's light cone momentum. The bare matrix elements corresponding to the trace anomaly contribution to the pion mass are also obtained. The discretizations of the energy-momentum tensor we use have other promising applications, ranging from calculating the origin of hadron spin to QCD thermodynamics.

We explore three representative lines of research and demonstrate the utility of our methods on a classification benchmark of brain cancer MRI data. First, we present a capsule network that explicitly learns a representation robust to rotation and affine transformation. This model requires less training data and outperforms both the original convolutional baseline and a previous capsule network implementation. Second, we leverage the latest domain adaptation techniques to achieve a new state-of-the-art accuracy. Our experiments show that non-medical images can be used to improve model performance. Finally, we design a spiking neural network trained on the Intel Loihi neuromorphic chip (Fig. 1 shows an inference snapshot). This model consumes much lower power while achieving reasonable accuracy given model reduction. We posit that more research in this direction combining hardware and learning advancements will power future medical imaging (on-device AI, few-shot prediction, adaptive scanning).

Combinatorial drugs have been widely applied in disease treatment, especially chemotherapy for cancer, due to its improved efficacy and reduced toxicity compared with individual drugs. The study of combinatorial drugs requires efficient experimental designs and proper follow-up statistical modelling techniques. Linear and non-linear models are often used in the response surface modelling for such experiments. We propose the use of Kriging models to better depict the response surfaces of combinatorial drugs and take into account the measurement error. We further study how proper experimental designs can reduce the required number of runs. We illustrate our method via a combinatorial drug experiment on lung cancer. We demonstrate that only 27 runs are needed to predict all 512 runs in the original experiment and achieve better precision than existing analysis.

Porous asphalt (PA) is an open-graded porous material with a porosity of 20%, allowing fast drainage of rain and improving driving and acoustic conditions. However, the high porosity leads to significant contact with water resulting in a shorter life expectancy. To improve the durability and performance of PA, the distribution of water and its residence time have to be understood which entails capturing diverse multiphase phenomena. For these reasons, a numerical study is performed to analyze in detail the fluid transport mechanisms at play in PA, towards estimating the liquid distribution inside the nanometer- to millimeter-sized pore structure of PA. In this study, LBM is used for a detailed analysis of multiphase flow in complex porous domains. A multiphase single component LBM method, with parallel computing, has been developed different phase separation phenomena on surfaces and in porous media. The LBM is validated with Laplace law and dynamic capillary intrusion test and then the capillary uptake simulations are validated with analytical solutions, varying contact angles, tube shapes and sizes. Pore meniscus and corner arc menisci are studied in both square and triangular tubes. In order to address the behavior of rain droplets on a PA surface, run-off, wetting, pinning and evaporation of single droplet are considered in terms of effects of variation of contact angle, surface wetting heterogeneity and structure. Finally, gravity-driven drainage in PA is studied with LBM in accordance with temporal evolution of water distribution by comparing with experimental data, showing good agreement. This study allows a better understanding of the diverse multiphase flow phenomena occurring in complex porous media, namely PA, at pore scale in saturated and unsaturated states, providing information towards improving the durability and performance of PA.

We study static kink configurations in a type of two-dimensional higher derivative scalar field theory whose Lagrangian contains second-order derivative terms of the field. The linear fluctuation around arbitrary static kink solutions is analyzed. We find that, the linear spectrum can be described by a supersymmetric quantum mechanics problem, and the criteria for stable static solutions can be given analytically. We also construct a superpotential formalism for finding analytical static kink solutions. Using this formalism we first reproduce some existed solutions and then offer a new solution. The properties of our solution is studied and compared without those preexisted. We also show the possibility in constructing twinlike model in the higher derivative theory, and give the consistency conditions for twinlike models corresponding to the canonical scalar field theory.

Constraints on dark energy from current observational data are sensitive to how distances are measured from Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) data. We find that flux-averaging of SNe Ia can be used to test the presence of unknown systematic uncertainties, and yield more robust distance measurements from SNe Ia. We have applied this approach to the nearby + SDSS +ESSENCE +SNLS +HST set of 288 SNe Ia, and the ``Constitution''of set 397 SNe Ia. Combining the SN Ia data with CMB data from WMAP five year observations, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey baryon acoustic oscillation measurements, the data of 69 gammay-ray bursts, and the Hubble constant measurement from the HST project SHOES, we measure the dark energy density function X(z)=\rho_X(z)/\rho_X(0) as a free function of redshift (assumed to be a constant at z>1 or z>1.5). Without flux-averaging of SNe Ia, the combined data using the ``Constitution'' set of SNe Ia seem to indicate a deviation from a cosmological constant at ~95% confidence level at 0< z <0.8; they are consistent with a cosmological constant at ~68% confidence level when SNe Ia are flux-averaged. The combined data using the nearby +SDSS +ESSENCE +SNLS +HST data set of SNe Ia are consistent with a cosmological constant at 68% confidence level with or without flux-averaging of SNe Ia, and give dark energy constraints that are significantly more stringent than that using the ``Constitution'' set of SNe Ia. Assuming a flat universe, dark energy is detected at >98% confidence level for z<= 0.75 using the combined data with 288 SNe Ia from nearby + SDSS+ ESSENCE +SNLS +HST, independent of the assumptions about X(z>1). We quantify dark energy constraints without assuming a flat universe using the dark energy Figure-of-Merit (FoM) for both $X(z)$ and a dark energy equation-of-state linear in the cosmic scale factor.

We consider the so-called unfolding problem in experimental high energy physics, where the goal is to estimate the true spectrum of elementary particles given observations distorted by measurement error due to the limited resolution of a particle detector. This an important statistical inverse problem arising in the analysis of data at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Mathematically, the problem is formalized as one of estimating the intensity function of an indirectly observed Poisson point process. Particle physicists are particularly keen on unfolding methods that feature a principled way of choosing the regularization strength and allow for the quantification of the uncertainty inherent in the solution. Though there are many approaches that have been considered by experimental physicists, it can be argued that few -- if any -- of these deal with these two key issues in a satisfactory manner. In this paper, we propose to attack the unfolding problem within the framework of empirical Bayes estimation: we consider Bayes estimators of the coefficients of a basis expansion of the unknown intensity, using a regularizing prior; and employ a Monte Carlo expectation-maximization algorithm to find the marginal maximum likelihood estimate of the hyperparameter controlling the strength of the regularization. Due to the data-driven choice of the hyperparameter, credible intervals derived using the empirical Bayes posterior lose their subjective Bayesian interpretation. Since the properties and meaning of such intervals are poorly understood, we explore instead the use of bootstrap resampling for constructing purely frequentist confidence bands for the true intensity. The performance of the proposed methodology is demonstrated using both simulations and real data from the Large Hadron Collider.

We present a measurement of the ratio of multijet cross sections in pp-bar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The measurement is based on a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.7 fb-1 collected with the D0 detector. The ratio of the inclusive three-jet to two-jet cross sections, R3/2, has been measured as a function of the jet transverse momenta. The data are compared to QCD predictions in different approximations. Popular tunes of the PYTHIA event generator do not agree with the data, while SHERPA provides a reasonable description of the data. A perturbative QCD prediction in next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant, corrected for non-perturbative effects, gives a good description of the data.

In this paper, we introduce a new class of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, with higher girth than other previous constructed codes. Especially we proposed a new method to construct LDPC codes using non fixed shift permutation matrices and full based matrices with higher girth than codes constructed by Fossorier.

We have studied the $\gamma d \to K^+ K^- n p$ reaction in which the LEPS collaboration found a signal in the $K^+ n$ invariant mass for the claimed $\Theta(1540)$ pentaquark peak. Our study reveal that the procedure used at LEPS to reconstruct the $K^+n$ invariant mass generates an artificial strength in the $\Theta(1540)$ region and that the LEPS collaboration underestimated the background in that region, such that the signal observed for the $\Theta(1540)$ is compatible with a fluctuation of $2\sigma$ over the calculated background.

Spotlight: Scalable Transport Layer Load Balancing for Data Center Networks

Load Balancing plays a vital role in modern data centers to distribute traffic among instances of network functions or services. State-of-the-art load balancers such as Silkroad dispatch traffic obliviously without considering the real-time utilization of service instances and therefore can lead to uneven load distribution and suboptimal performance. In this paper, we design and implement Spotlight, a scalable and distributed load balancing architecture that maintains connection-to-instance mapping consistency at the edge of data center networks. Spotlight uses a new stateful flow dispatcher which periodically polls instances' load and dispatches incoming connections to instances in proportion to their available capacity. Our design utilizes distributed control plane and in-band flow dispatching and thus scales horizontally in data center networks. Through extensive flow-level simulation and packet-level experiments on a testbed, we demonstrate that compared to existing methods Spotlight distributes the traffic more efficiently and has near-optimum performance in terms of overall service utilization. Moreover, Spotlight is not sensitive to utilization polling interval and therefore can be implemented with low polling frequency to reduce the amount of control traffic. Indeed, Spotlight achieves the mentioned performance improvements using O(100ms) polling interval.

The notion of entanglement of quantum states is usually defined with respect to a fixed bipartition. Indeed, a global basis change can always map an entangled state to a separable one. The situation is however different when considering a set of states. In this work we define the notion of an "absolutely entangled set" of quantum states: for any possible choice of global basis, at least one of the states in the set is entangled. Hence, for all bipartitions, i.e. any possible definition of the subsystems, the set features entanglement. We present a minimum example of this phenomenon, with a set of four states in $\mathbb{C}^4 = \mathbb{C}^2 \otimes \mathbb{C}^2$. Moreover, we propose a quantitative measure for absolute set entanglement. To lower-bound this quantity, we develop a method based on polynomial optimization to perform convex optimization over unitaries, which is of independent interest.

Using a density-functional theory plus dynamical mean-field theory methodology, we compute the many-body electronic structure and optical conductivity of NdNiO$_{2}$ under the influence of large scattering rates on the Nd($5d$) bands and including dynamical interactions on the Nd($5d$) orbitals with shifts of the Nd-Ni $d$-level energy difference. We find a robust conducting pathway in the out-of-plane direction arising from strong hybridization between the Ni-$d_{z^2}$ and Nd($5d$) orbitals. This pathway can be ``short-circuited'' if this hybridization is suppressed through large electronic scattering rates but is not reduced to zero even by very large beyond-DFT shifts of the Nd-Ni $d$-level energy splitting. The computed in-plane conductivity for NdNiO$_{2}$ predicts the material to be a ``good metal'' in contrast to experiments indicating the material is a ``bad metal'' or ``weak insulator''. Our results motivate future experiments measuring the $c$-axis resistivity as a proxy for the spectator bands and suggests the essential difference between the infinite-layer nickelates and the cuprates is dimensionality of their electronic structures.

Analyzing customer feedback is the best way to channelize the data into new marketing strategies that benefit entrepreneurs as well as customers. Therefore an automated system which can analyze the customer behavior is in great demand. Users may write feedbacks in any language, and hence mining appropriate information often becomes intractable. Especially in a traditional feature-based supervised model, it is difficult to build a generic system as one has to understand the concerned language for finding the relevant features. In order to overcome this, we propose deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) based approaches that do not require handcrafting of features. We evaluate these techniques for analyzing customer feedback sentences in four languages, namely English, French, Japanese and Spanish. Our empirical analysis shows that our models perform well in all the four languages on the setups of IJCNLP Shared Task on Customer Feedback Analysis. Our model achieved the second rank in French, with an accuracy of 71.75% and third ranks for all the other languages.

A lattice model of spinless interacting electrons is used to formulate the Landau theory of the Fermi liquid to electron glass quantum phase transition. We demonstrate that the presence of additional random site energies does not affect the character of the transition, once the replica symmetry breaking is considered self-consistently at the mean-field level. Inside the glass phase, the low temperature conductivity assumes a non-Fermi liquid ~ T^{3/2} form, in agreement with recent experiments.

In this paper we present Monte-Carlo simulations of Lyman alpha absorption systems which originate in galactic haloes, galaxy discs and dark matter (DM) satellites around big central haloes. It is found that for strong Lyman alpha absorption lines galactic haloes and satellites can explain ~20% and 40% of the line number density of QSO absorption line key project respectively. If big galaxies indeed possess such large numbers of DM satellites and they possess gas, these satellites may play an important role for strong Lyman alpha lines. However the predicted number density of Lyman-limit systems by satellites is \~0.1 (per unit redshift), which is four times smaller than that by halo clouds. Including galactic haloes, satellites and HI discs of spirals, the predicted number density of strong lines can be as much as 60% of the HST result. The models can also predict all of the observed Lyman-limit systems. The average covering factor within 250 kpc/h is estimated to be ~0.36. And the effective absorption radius of a galaxy is estimated to be ~150 kpc/h. The models predict W_r propto rho^{-0.5} L_B^{0.15} (1+z)^{-0.5}. We study the selection effects of selection criteria similar to the imaging and spectroscopic surveys. We simulate mock observations through known QSO lines-of-sight and find that selection effects can statistically tighten the dependence of line width on projected distance. (abridged)

Here we introduce interferometric devices by combining optical feedback (cavities) with unbiased multiports, which unlike traditional beam dividers, allow light to reflect back out of the port from which it originated. By replacing the traditional, directionally-biased beam-splitter in a Michelson interferometer with an unbiased multiport, the functional dependence of the scattering amplitudes changes. As a result, the derivative of transmittance with respect to an external phase perturbation can be made substantially large. This significantly enhances the resolution of phase measurement, and allows the phase response curves to be altered in real time by tuning an externally-controllable phase shift.

In this paper, we study the regularity of optimal mappings in Monge's mass transfer problem. Using the approximation to Monge's cost function given by the Euclidean distance c(x,y)=dist(x,y) through the costs c_\eps(x,y)=(\eps^2+dist(x,y)^2)^{1/2}, we consider the optimal mappings T_\eps for these costs, and we prove that the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix DT_\eps, which are all positive, are locally uniformly bounded. By an example we prove that T_\eps is in general not uniformly Lipschitz continuous as \eps-0, even if the mass distributions are positive and smooth, and the domains are c-convex.

We review some aspects of the free field approach to two-dimensional conformal field theories. Specifically, we discuss the construction of free field resolutions for the integrable highest weight modules of untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebras, and extend the construction to a certain class of admissible highest weight modules. Using these, we construct resolutions of the completely degenerate highest weight modules of W-algebras by means of the quantum Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction. As a corollary we derive character formulae for these degenerate highest weight modules.

Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of fields with group $\Gamma$. Associated to each Hopf-Galois structure on $L/K$ is a group $G$ of the same order as the Galois group $\Gamma$. The type of the Hopf-Galois structure is by definition the isomorphism type of $G$. We investigate the extent to which general properties of either of the groups $\Gamma$ and $G$ constrain those of the other. Specifically, we show that if $G$ is nilpotent then $\Gamma$ is soluble, and that if $\Gamma$ is abelian then $G$ is soluble. The proof of the latter result depends on the classification of finite simple groups. In contrast to these results, we give some examples where the groups $\Gamma$ and $G$ have different composition factors. In particular, we show that a soluble extension may admit a Hopf-Galois structure of insoluble type.

Symmetry considerations are of extreme importance to the topological properties of crystals. A crystal field splitting {\delta} yields Dirac nodes near the Brillouin zone center in Cd3As2, but its value has yet to be determined with precision. We study the band structure of Cd3As2 using magnetooptical infrared spectroscopy measurements on epilayers with low carrier density grown by molecular beam epitaxy. By combining angular dependent cyclotron resonance with Landau level spectroscopy measurements in the Faraday geometry, we determine that {\delta} is positive and equal to 15+/-5 meV in Cd3As2. Our results lead to a more accurate knowledge of the details of the band structure of this Dirac semimetal such as the position its Dirac nodes in momentum space and their splitting into Weyl nodes under a magnetic field.

The unusual pre-main-sequence binary star named KH 15D undergoes remarkably deep and long-lasting periodic eclipses. Some clues about the reason for these eclipses have come from the observed evolution of the system's light curve over the last century. Here we present UBVRI photometry of KH 15D based on photographic plates from various observatories, ranging in time from 1954 to 1997. The system has been variable at the ~1 mag level since at least 1965. There is no evidence for color variations, with a typical limit of Delta(B-V) < 0.2 mag. We confirm some previously published results that were based on a smaller sample of plates: from approximately 1965 to 1990, the total flux was modulated with the 48-day orbital period of the binary, but the maximum flux was larger, the fractional variations were smaller, and the phase of minimum flux was shifted by almost a half-cycle relative to the modern light curve. All these results are consistent with the recently proposed theory that KH 15D is being occulted by an inclined, precessing, circumbinary ring.

Graphite fluoride (CFx) cathodes coupled with lithium anodes yield one of the highest theoretical energy densities (>860 Wh/g) among primary batteries. In practice, the observed discharge voltage (~2.5 V) is significantly lower than thermodynamic limits (>4.5 V), the discharge rate is low, and so far Li/CFx has only been used in primary batteries. Understanding the discharge mechanism at atomic length scales will improve practical CFx energy density, rate capability, and rechargeability. So far, purely experimental techniques have not identified the correct discharge mechanism or explained the discharge voltage. We apply Density Functional Theory calculations to demonstrate that a CFx-edge propagation discharge mechanism based on lithium insertion at the CF/C boundary in partially discharged CFx exhibits a voltage range of 2.5 to 2.9 V -- depending on whether solvent molecules are involved. The voltages and solvent dependence agrees with our discharge and galvanostatic intermittent titration technique measurements. The predicted discharge kinetics are consistent with CFx operations. Finally, we predict Li/CFx rechargeability under the application of high potentials, along a charging pathway different from that of discharge. Our work represents a general, quasi-kinetic framework to understand the discharge of conversion cathodes, circumventing the widely used phase diagram approach which most likely does not apply to Li/CFx because equilibrium conditions are not attained in this system.

Objective: Provide guidance on sample size considerations for developing predictive models by empirically establishing the adequate sample size, which balances the competing objectives of improving model performance and reducing model complexity as well as computational requirements. Materials and Methods: We empirically assess the effect of sample size on prediction performance and model complexity by generating learning curves for 81 prediction problems in three large observational health databases, requiring training of 17,248 prediction models. The adequate sample size was defined as the sample size for which the performance of a model equalled the maximum model performance minus a small threshold value. Results: The adequate sample size achieves a median reduction of the number of observations between 9.5% and 78.5% for threshold values between 0.001 and 0.02. The median reduction of the number of predictors in the models at the adequate sample size varied between 8.6% and 68.3%, respectively. Discussion: Based on our results a conservative, yet significant, reduction in sample size and model complexity can be estimated for future prediction work. Though, if a researcher is willing to generate a learning curve a much larger reduction of the model complexity may be possible as suggested by a large outcome-dependent variability. Conclusion: Our results suggest that in most cases only a fraction of the available data was sufficient to produce a model close to the performance of one developed on the full data set, but with a substantially reduced model complexity.

Linear Programming (LP) is an important decoding technique for binary linear codes. However, the advantages of LP decoding, such as low error floor and strong theoretical guarantee, etc., come at the cost of high computational complexity and poor performance at the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region. In this letter, we adopt the penalty dual decomposition (PDD) framework and propose a PDD algorithm to address the fundamental polytope based maximum likelihood (ML) decoding problem. Furthermore, we propose to integrate machine learning techniques into the most time-consuming part of the PDD decoding algorithm, i.e., check polytope projection (CPP). Inspired by the fact that a multi-layer perception (MLP) can theoretically approximate any nonlinear mapping function, we present a specially designed neural CPP (NCPP) algorithm to decrease the decoding latency. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

Untangling the global coronal magnetic field with multiwavelength observations
Helio2050 white paper

Magnetism defines the complex and dynamic solar corona. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are thought to be caused by stresses, twists, and tangles in coronal magnetic fields that build up energy and ultimately erupt, hurling plasma into interplanetary space. Even the ever-present solar wind possesses a three-dimensional morphology shaped by the global coronal magnetic field, forming geoeffective corotating interaction regions. CME evolution and the structure of the solar wind depend intimately on the coronal magnetic field, so comprehensive observations of the global magnetothermal atmosphere are crucial both for scientific progress and space weather predictions. Although some advances have been made in measuring coronal magnetic fields locally, synoptic measurements of the global coronal magnetic field are not yet available. We conclude that a key goal for 2050 should be comprehensive, ongoing 3D synoptic maps of the global coronal magnetic field. This will require the construction of new telescopes, ground and space-based, to obtain complementary, multiwavelength observations sensitive to the coronal magnetic field. It will also require development of inversion frameworks capable of incorporating multi-wavelength data, and forward analysis tools and simulation testbeds to prioritize and establish observational requirements on the proposed telescopes.

We prove that the pseudovariety of finite groups ${\bf Ab}(p) \ast {\bf Ab}(d)$ (where $p$ is a prime and $d$ divides $p-1$) is finitely generated and compute its free objects. We consider also the pseudovariety of finite groups $\mathbf{U} = \displaystyle\bigvee_{p \in \mathbb{P}} {\bf Ab}(p) \ast {\bf Ab}(p-1)$, where $\mathbb{P}$ is the set of all primes. We show that $\mathbf{U}$ consists of all finite supersolvable groups with elementary abelian derived subgroup and abelian Sylow subgroups, being therefore decidable. We prove that it is decidable whether or not a finitely generated subgroup of a free group is closed or dense for the pro-$\mathbf{U}$ topology.

Before Brexit, one of the greatest causes of arguments amongst British families was the question of the nature of Jaffa Cakes. Some argue that their size and host environment (the biscuit aisle) should make them a biscuit in their own right. Others consider that their physical properties (e.g. they harden rather than soften on becoming stale) suggest that they are in fact cake. In order to finally put this debate to rest, we re-purpose technologies used to classify transient events. We train two classifiers (a Random Forest and a Support Vector Machine) on 100 recipes of traditional cakes and biscuits. Our classifiers have 95 percent and 91 percent accuracy respectively. Finally we feed two Jaffa Cake recipes to the algorithms and find that Jaffa Cakes are, without a doubt, cakes. Finally, we suggest a new theory as to why some believe Jaffa Cakes are biscuits.

Bayesian models for cost-effectiveness analysis in the presence of structural zero costs

Bayesian modelling for cost-effectiveness data has received much attention in both the health economics and the statistical literature in recent years. Cost-effectiveness data are characterised by a relatively complex structure of relationships linking the suitable measure of clinical benefit (\eg QALYs) and the associated costs. Simplifying assumptions, such as (bivariate) normality of the underlying distributions are usually not granted, particularly for the cost variable, which is characterised by markedly skewed distributions. In addition, individual-level datasets are often characterised by the presence of structural zeros in the cost variable. Hurdle models can be used to account for the presence of excess zeros in a distribution and have been applied in the context of cost data. We extend their application to cost-effectiveness data, defining a full Bayesian model which consists of a selection model for the subjects with null costs, a marginal model for the costs and a conditional model for the measure of effectiveness (conditionally on the observed costs). The model is presented using a working example to describe its main features.

We report heat transfer and temperature profile measurements in laboratory experiments of rapidly rotating convection in water under intense thermal forcing (Rayleigh number $Ra$ as high as $\sim 10^{13}$) and unprecedentedly strong rotational influence (Ekman numbers $E$ as low as $10^{-8}$). Measurements of the mid-height vertical temperature gradient connect quantitatively to predictions from numerical models of asymptotically rapidly rotating convection, separating various flow phenomenologies. Past the limit of validity of the asymptotically-reduced models, we find novel behaviors in a regime we refer to as rotationally-influenced turbulence, where rotation is important but not as dominant as in the known geostrophic turbulence regime. The temperature gradients collapse to a Rayleigh-number scaling as $Ra^{-0.2}$ in this new regime. It is bounded from above by a critical convective Rossby number $Ro^*=0.06$ independent of domain aspect ratio $\Gamma$, clearly distinguishing it from well-studied rotation-affected convection.

Many objects in the real world undergo dramatic variations in visual appearance. For example, a tomato may be red or green, sliced or chopped, fresh or fried, liquid or solid. Training a single detector to accurately recognize tomatoes in all these different states is challenging. On the other hand, contextual cues (e.g., the presence of a knife, a cutting board, a strainer or a pan) are often strongly indicative of how the object appears in the scene. Recognizing such contextual cues is useful not only to improve the accuracy of object detection or to determine the state of the object, but also to understand its functional properties and to infer ongoing or upcoming human-object interactions. A fully-supervised approach to recognizing object states and their contexts in the real-world is unfortunately marred by the long-tailed, open-ended distribution of the data, which would effectively require massive amounts of annotations to capture the appearance of objects in all their different forms. Instead of relying on manually-labeled data for this task, we propose a new framework for learning Contextualized OBject Embeddings (COBE) from automatically-transcribed narrations of instructional videos. We leverage the semantic and compositional structure of language by training a visual detector to predict a contextualized word embedding of the object and its associated narration. This enables the learning of an object representation where concepts relate according to a semantic language metric. Our experiments show that our detector learns to predict a rich variety of contextual object information, and that it is highly effective in the settings of few-shot and zero-shot learning.

This is the seventh article in the collection of reviews "Exact results on N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories", ed. J.Teschner. It discusses an interesting class of observables localised on surfaces that attracts steadily growing attention. In the correspondence to conformal field theory some of these observables get related to a class of fields in two dimensions called degenerate fields. These fields satisfy differential equations that can be used to extract a lot of information on the correlation functions. Understanding the origin of these differential equations within gauge theory may help explaining the AGT-correspondence itself.

Since December 2019 the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has been identified as the cause of the pandemic COVID-19. Early symptoms overlap with other common conditions such as common cold and Influenza, making early screening and diagnosis are crucial goals for health practitioners. The aim of the study was to use machine learning (ML), an artificial neural network (ANN) and a simple statistical test to identify SARS-CoV-2 positive patients from full blood counts without knowledge of symptoms or history of the individuals. The dataset included in the analysis and training contains anonymized full blood counts results from patients seen at the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, at S\~ao Paulo, Brazil, and who had samples collected to perform the SARS-CoV-2 rt-PCR test during a visit to the hospital. Patient data was anonymised by the hospital, clinical data was standardized to have a mean of zero and a unit standard deviation. This data was made public with the aim to allow researchers to develop ways to enable the hospital to rapidly predict and potentially identify SARS-CoV-2 positive patients. We find that with full blood counts random forest, shallow learning and a flexible ANN model predict SARS-CoV-2 patients with high accuracy between populations on regular wards (AUC = 94-95%) and those not admitted to hospital or in the community (AUC=80-86%). Here, AUC is the Area Under the receiver operating characteristics Curve and a measure for model performance. Moreover, a simple linear combination of 4 blood counts can be used to have an AUC of 85% for patients within the community. The normalised data of different blood parameters from SARS-CoV-2 positive patients exhibit a decrease in platelets, leukocytes, eosinophils, basophils and lymphocytes, and an increase in monocytes.

A detailed comparison is carried out between two popular equations of state (EOS), the Mihalas-Hummer-Dappen (MHD) and the OPAL equations of state, which have found widespread use in solar and stellar modeling during the past two decades. They are parts of two independent efforts to recalculate stellar opacities; the international Opacity Project (OP) and the Livermore-based OPAL project. We examine the difference between the two equations of state in a broad sense, over the whole applicable rho-T range, and for three different chemical mixtures. Such a global comparison highlights both their differences and their similarities. We find that omitting a questionable hard-sphere correction, tau, to the Coulomb interaction in the MHD formulation, greatly improves the agreement between the MHD and OPAL EOS. We also find signs of differences that could stem from quantum effects not yet included in the MHD EOS, and differences in the ionization zones that are probably caused by differences in the mechanisms for pressure ionization. Our analysis do not only give a clearer perception of the limitations of each equation of state for astrophysical applications, but also serve as guidance for future work on the physical issues behind the differences. The outcome should be an improvement of both equations of state.

Gig workers, and the products and services they provide, play an increasingly ubiquitous role in our daily lives. But despite growing evidence suggesting that worker well-being in gig economy platforms have become significant societal problems, few studies have investigated possible solutions. We take a stride in this direction by engaging workers, platform employees, and local regulators in a series of speed dating workshops using storyboards based on real-life situations to rapidly elicit stakeholder preferences for addressing financial, physical, and social issues related to worker well-being. Our results reveal that existing public and platformic infrastructures fall short in providing workers with resources needed to perform gigs, surfacing a need for multi-platform collaborations, technological innovations, as well as changes in regulations, labor laws, and the public's perception of gig workers, among others. Drawing from multi-stakeholder findings, we discuss these implications for technology, policy, and service as well as avenues for collaboration.

Here we present the analysis of 3D spectroscopic data of three Blue Compact Galaxies (Mrk324, Mrk370, and IIIZw102). Each of the more than 22500 spectra obtained for each galaxy has been fitted by a single gaussian from which we have inferred the velocity dispersion (sigma), the peak intensity (Ipeak), and the central wavelength (lambda_c). The analysis shows that the sigma vs Ipeak diagrams look remarkably similar to those obtained for giant extragalactic HII regions. They all present a supersonic narrow horizontal band that extends across all the range of intensities and that result from the massive nuclear star-forming regions of every galaxy. The sigma vs Ipeak diagrams present also several inclined bands of lower intensity and an even larger sigma, arising from the large galactic volumes that surround the main central emitting knots. Here we also show that the sigma vs lambda_c and lambda_c vs Ipeak diagrams, are powerful tools able to unveil the presence of high and low mass stellar clusters, and thus allow for the possibility of inferring the star formation activity of distant galaxies, even if these are not spatially resolved.

The state of the art ab initio calculations of quantum mirages,the spin-polarization of surface-state electrons and the exchange interaction between magnetic adatoms in Cu and Co corrals on Cu(111) are presented. We find that the spin-polarization of the surface-state electrons caused by magnetic adatoms can be projected to a remote location and can be strongly enhanced in corrals compared to an open surface.Our studies give a clear evidence that quantum corrals could permit to tailor the exchange interaction between magnetic adatoms at large separations. The spin-polarization of surface-state electrons at the empty focus in the Co corral used in the experimental setup of Manoharan et al., (Nature 403, 512 (2000)) is revealed.

Pattern discovery in multidimensional data sets has been the subject of research for decades. There exists a wide spectrum of clustering algorithms that can be used for this purpose. However, their practical applications share a common post-clustering phase, which concerns expert-based interpretation and analysis of the obtained results. We argue that this can be the bottleneck in the process, especially in cases where domain knowledge exists prior to clustering. Such a situation requires not only a proper analysis of automatically discovered clusters but also conformance checking with existing knowledge. In this work, we present Knowledge Augmented Clustering (KnAC). Its main goal is to confront expert-based labelling with automated clustering for the sake of updating and refining the former. Our solution is not restricted to any existing clustering algorithm. Instead, KnAC can serve as an augmentation of an arbitrary clustering algorithm, making the approach robust and a model-agnostic improvement of any state-of-the-art clustering method. We demonstrate the feasibility of our method on artificially, reproducible examples and in a real life use case scenario. In both cases, we achieved better results than classic clustering algorithms without augmentation.

We study the cold and dense regime in the phase diagram of two-color QCD with heavy quarks within a three-dimensional effective theory for Polyakov loops. This theory is derived from two-color QCD in a combined strong-coupling and hopping expansion. In particular, we study the onset of diquark density as the finite-density transition of the bosonic baryons in the two-color world. In contrast to previous studies of heavy dense QCD, our zero-temperature extrapolations are consistent with a continuous transition without binding energy. They thus provide evidence that the effective theory for heavy quarks is capable of describing the characteristic differences between diquark condensation in two-color QCD and the liquid-gas transition of nuclear matter in QCD.

In face of the pressing need of decarbonization in the power sector, the re-design of electricity market is necessary as a Marco-level approach to accommodate the high penetration of renewable generations, and to achieve power system operation security, economic efficiency, and environmental friendliness. However, existing market design methodologies suffer from the lack of coordination among energy spot market (ESM), ancillary service market (ASM) and financial market (FM), i.e., the "joint market", and the lack of reliable simulation-based verification. To tackle these deficiencies, this two-part paper develops a paradigmatic theory and detailed methods of the joint market design using reinforcement-learning (RL)-based simulation. In Part 1, the theory and framework of this novel market design philosophy are proposed. First, the controversial market design options while designing the joint market are summarized as the targeted research questions. Second, the Markov game model is developed to describe the bidding game in the joint market, incorporating the market design options to be determined. Third, a framework of deploying multiple types of RL algorithms to simulate the market model is developed. Finally, several market operation performance indicators are proposed to validate the market design based on the simulation results.

We consider a scenario of large-scale modification of gravity that does not invoke extra degrees of freedom but includes coupling between baryonic matter and dark matter in the Einstein frame. The total matter energy density follows the standard conservation, and evolution has the character of deceleration in this frame. The model exhibits interesting features in the Jordan frame realized by virtue of a disformal transformation where individual matter components adhere to standard conservation but gravity is modified. A generic parametrization of disformal transformation leaves thermal history intact. It gives rise to late time acceleration in the Jordan frame, which necessarily includes phantom crossing, which, in the standard framework, can be realized using at least two scalar fields. This scenario is embodied by two distinguishing features, namely, acceleration in the Jordan frame and deceleration in the Einstein frame, and the possibility of resolution of the Hubble tension thanks to the emergence of the phantom phase at late times.

The widespread use of high energy particle beams in basic research, medicine and coherent X-ray generation coupled with the large size of modern radio frequency (RF) accelerator devices and facilities has motivated a strong need for alternative accelerators operating in regimes outside of RF. Working at optical frequencies, dielectric laser accelerators (DLAs) - transparent laser-driven nanoscale dielectric structures whose near fields can synchronously accelerate charged particles - have demonstrated high-gradient acceleration with a variety of laser wavelengths, materials, and electron beam parameters, potentially enabling miniaturized accelerators and table-top coherent x-ray sources. To realize a useful (i.e. scalable) DLA, crucial developments have remained: concatenation of components including sustained phase synchronicity to reach arbitrary final energies as well as deflection and focusing elements to keep the beam well collimated along the design axis. Here, all of these elements are demonstrated with a subrelativistic electron beam. In particular, by creating two interaction regions via illumination of a nanograting with two spatio-temporally separated pulsed laser beams, we demonstrate a phase-controlled doubling of electron energy gain from 0.7 to 1.4 keV (2.5 percent to 5 percent of the initial beam energy) and through use of a chirped grating geometry, we overcome the dephasing limit of 25 keV electrons, increasing their energy gains to a laser power limited 10 percent of their initial energy. Further, optically-driven transverse focusing of the electron beam with focal lengths below 200 microns is achieved via a parabolic grating geometry. These results lay the cornerstone for future miniaturized phase synchronous vacuum-structure-based accelerators.

The macromechanical properties of purely bundled in vitro actin networks are not only determined by the micromechanical properties of individual bundles but also by molecular unbinding events of the actin binding protein (ABP) fascin. Under high mechanical load the network elasticity depends on the forced unbinding of individual ABPs in a rate dependent manner. Cross-linker unbinding in combination with the structural self-similarity of the network enables the introduction of a concentration/time superposition principle - broadening the mechanically accessible frequency range over 8 orders of magnitude.

A global agreement on how to reduce and cap human footprint, especially their GHG emissions, is very unlikely in near future. At the same time, bilateral agreements would be inefficient because of their neural and balanced nature. Therefore, unilateral actions would have attracted attention as a practical option. However, any unilateral action would most likely fail if it is not fair and also if it is not consistent with the world trade organization's (WTO's) rules, considering highly heterogeneity of the global economy. The modified GHG intensity (MGHGINT) indicator, hereafter called Inequality-adjusted Production-based GHGINT (IPGHGINT), was put forward to address this need in the form of a universal indicator applicable to every region regardless of its economic and social status. Nonetheless, the original MGHGINT indicator ignores hidden consumption-related emissions, and therefore it could be unfair to some production-oriented regions in the current bipolar production/consumption world. Here, we propose two generalizations, called Inequality-adjusted Consumption-based GHGINT (ICGHGINT) and Inequality-adjusted Production/Consumption-Insensitive GHGINT (IIGHGINT), to the IPGHGINT in order to combine both production and consumption emissions in a unified and balanced manner. The impact of this generalizations on the associated border carbon tax rates is evaluated in order to validate their practicality.

The quantum-classical limits for quantum tomograms are studied and compared with the corresponding classical tomograms, using two different definitions for the limit. One is the Planck limit where $\hbar \to 0$ in all $\hbar $-dependent physical observables, and the other is the Ehrenfest limit where $\hbar \to 0$ while keeping constant the mean value of the energy.The Ehrenfest limit of eigenstate tomograms for a particle in a box and a harmonic oscillatoris shown to agree with the corresponding classical tomograms of phase-space distributions, after a time averaging. The Planck limit of superposition state tomograms of the harmonic oscillator demostrating the decreasing contribution of interferences terms as $\hbar \to 0$.

Silicon has long been synonymous with semiconductor technology. This unique role is due largely to the remarkable properties of the Si-SiO_2 interface, especially the (001)-oriented interface used in most devices. Although Si is crystalline and the oxide is amorphous, the interface is essentially perfect, with an extremely low density of dangling bonds or other electrically active defects. With the continual decrease of device size, the nanoscale structure of the silicon/oxide interface becomes more and more important. Yet despite its essential role, the atomic structure of this interface is still unclear. Using a novel Monte Carlo approach, we identify low-energy structures for the interface. The optimal structure found consists of Si-O-Si "bridges" ordered in a stripe pattern, with very low energy. This structure explains several puzzling experimental observations.

We present a study on planar equilibria of a terminally loaded elastic rod wrapped around a rigid circular capstan. Both frictionless and frictional contact between the rod and the capstan are considered. We identify three cases of frictionless contact -- namely where the rod touches the capstan at one point, along a continuous arc, and at two points. We show that, in contrast to a fully flexible filament, an elastic rod of \emph{finite length} wrapped around a capstan does not require friction to support unequal loads at its two ends. Furthermore, we classify rod equilibria corresponding to the three aforementioned cases in a limit where the length of the rod is much larger than the radius of the capstan. In the same limit, we incorporate frictional interaction between the rod and the capstan, and compute limiting equilibria of the rod. Our solution to the frictional case fully generalizes the \emph{classic capstan problem} to include the effects of finite thickness and bending elasticity of a flexible filament wrapped around a circular capstan.

A unified description of i) classical phase transitions and their remnants in finite systems and ii) quantum phase transitions is presented. The ensuing discussion relies on the interplay between, on the one hand, the thermodynamic concepts of temperature and specific heat and on the other, the quantal ones of coupling strengths in the Hamiltonian. Our considerations are illustrated in an exactly solvable model of Plastino and Moszkowski [Il Nuovo Cimento {\bf 47}, 470 (1978)].

This study provides a practical introduction to high-frequency trading in blockchain-based currency markets. These types of markets have some specific characteristics that differentiate them from the stock markets, such as a large number of trading exchanges (centralized and decentralized), relative simplicity in moving funds from one exchange to another, and the large number of new currencies that have very little liquidity. This study analyzes the possible risks that specifically characterize this type of trading operation, the potential opportunities, and the algorithms that are mostly used, providing information that can be useful for practitioners who intend to operate in these markets by providing (and risking) liquidity.

Compared with existing works that use heavy recurrent neural networks to model temporal information, we propose simple but effective neural networks to capture user historical item features and path-based context to characterise next purchased item. Extensive evaluations of TMER on three real-world benchmark datasets show state-of-the-art performance compared against recent strong baselines.
