The typical spectrum of the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) indicates that the electron cooling is suppressed in spite of the strong magnetic field in the standard synchrotron model. Recent Particle-in-Cell simulations show that the particle acceleration by magnetic reconnection in a magnetically dominated plasma can lead to small pitch angles especially in low-energy region. Such a small pitch angle prevents electrons from cooling via synchrotron radiation. In this paper, taking into account the effects of the synchrotron cooling and the adiabatic cooling, we numerically calculate the synchrotron spectra with anisotropic electron distributions. If we require a Poynting flux larger than $10^{50}~\mbox{erg}~\mbox{s}^{-1}$ as the model is motivated by magnetic reconnection, the bulk Lorentz factor of $\sim 1000$ and the electron minimum Lorentz factor of $\gamma_{\rm min}\sim 10^4$ are required to reproduce the typical GRB spectrum.
The variational quantum eigensolver (VQE), a variational algorithm to obtain an approximated ground state of a given Hamiltonian, is an appealing application of near-term quantum computers. The original work [A. Peruzzo et al.; \textit{Nat. Commun.}; \textbf{5}, 4213 (2014)] focused only on finding a ground state, whereas the excited states can also induce interesting phenomena in molecules and materials. Calculating excited states is, in general, a more difficult task than finding ground states for classical computers. To extend the framework to excited states, we here propose an algorithm, the subspace-search variational quantum eigensolver (SSVQE). This algorithm searches a low energy subspace by supplying orthogonal input states to the variational ansatz and relies on the unitarity of transformations to ensure the orthogonality of output states. The $k$-th excited state is obtained as the highest energy state in the low energy subspace. The proposed algorithm consists only of two parameter optimization procedures and does not employ any ancilla qubits. The disuse of the ancilla qubits is a great improvement from the existing proposals for excited states, which have utilized the swap test, making our proposal a truly near-term quantum algorithm. We further generalize the SSVQE to obtain all excited states up to the $k$-th by only a single optimization procedure. From numerical simulations, we verify the proposed algorithms. This work greatly extends the applicable domain of the VQE to excited states and their related properties like a transition amplitude without sacrificing any feasibility of it.
We give a proof of Pixton's generalized Faber-Zagier relations in the tautological Chow ring of $\overline M_{g,n}$. The strategy is very similar to the work of Pandharipande-Pixton-Zvonkine, who have given a proof of the same result in cohomology. The main tool is the Givental-Teleman classification of semisimple cohomological field theories, which, while in general only known in cohomology, via virtual localization can be shown to be also valid in Chow for the equivariant Gromov-Witten theory of the projective line. We obtain the relations just from this theory.
In this paper, we presented a detailed timing analysis of a prominent outburst of 4U 0115+63 detected by \textit{Insight}-HXMT in 2017 August. The spin period of the neutron star was determined to be $3.61398\pm 0.00002$ s at MJD 57978. We measured the period variability and extract the orbital elements of the binary system. The angle of periastron evolved with a rate of $0.048\pm0.003$ $yr^{-1}$. The light curves are folded to sketch the pulse profiles in different energy ranges. A multi-peak structure in 1-10 keV is clearly illustrated. We introduced wavelet analysis into our data analysis procedures to study QPO signals and perform a detailed wavelet analysis in many different energy ranges. Through the wavelet spectra, we report the discovery of a QPO at the frequency $\sim 10$ mHz. In addition, the X-ray light curves showed multiple QPOs in the period of $\sim 16-32 $ s and $\sim 67- 200 $ s. We found that the $\sim100$ s QPO was significant in most of the observations and energies. There exist positive relations between X-ray luminosity and their Q-factors and S-factors, while the QPO periods have no correlation with X-ray luminosity. In wavelet phase maps, we found that the pulse phase of $\sim 67- 200 $ s QPO drifting frequently while the $\sim 16-32 $ s QPO scarcely drifting. The dissipation of oscillations from high energy to low energy was also observed. These features of QPOs in 4U 0115+63 provide new challenge to our understanding of their physical origins.
Deep Implicit Functions (DIFs) represent 3D geometry with continuous signed distance functions learned through deep neural nets. Recently DIFs-based methods have been proposed to handle shape reconstruction and dense point correspondences simultaneously, capturing semantic relationships across shapes of the same class by learning a DIFs-modeled shape template. These methods provide great flexibility and accuracy in reconstructing 3D shapes and inferring correspondences. However, the point correspondences built from these methods do not intrinsically preserve the topology of the shapes, unlike mesh-based template matching methods. This limits their applications on 3D geometries where underlying topological structures exist and matter, such as anatomical structures in medical images. In this paper, we propose a new model called Neural Diffeomorphic Flow (NDF) to learn deep implicit shape templates, representing shapes as conditional diffeomorphic deformations of templates, intrinsically preserving shape topologies. The diffeomorphic deformation is realized by an auto-decoder consisting of Neural Ordinary Differential Equation (NODE) blocks that progressively map shapes to implicit templates. We conduct extensive experiments on several medical image organ segmentation datasets to evaluate the effectiveness of NDF on reconstructing and aligning shapes. NDF achieves consistently state-of-the-art organ shape reconstruction and registration results in both accuracy and quality.

The paper is concerned with the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions of the nonhomogeneous Choquard equation over an annular type bounded domain. Precisely, we consider the following equation   \[   -\De u = \left(\int_{\Om}\frac{|u(y)|^{2^*_{\mu}}}{|x-y|^{\mu}}dy\right)|u|^{2^*_{\mu}-2}u+f \; \text{in}\;   \Om,\quad   u = 0 \; \text{ on } \pa \Om ,   \]   where $\Om$ is a smooth bounded annular domain in $\mathbb{R}^N( N\geq 3)$, $2^*_{\mu}=\frac{2N-\mu}{N-2}$, $f \in L^{\infty}(\Om)$ and $f \geq 0$. We prove the existence of four positive solutions of the above problem using the Lusternik-Schnirelmann theory and varitaional methods, when the inner hole of the annulus is sufficiently small.
We investigate analytically and numerically the ground and metastable states for easy-plane Heisenberg magnets with single-ion surface anisotropy and disk geometry. The configurations with two half-vortices at the opposite points of the border are shown to be preferable for strong anisotropy. We propose a simple analytical description of the spin configurations for all values of a surface anisotropy. The effects of lattice pinning leads to appearance of a set of metastable configurations.
Anisotropic Diffusion is widely used for noise reduction with simultaneous preservation of vascular structures in maximum intensity projected (MIP) angiograms. However, extension to minimum intensity projected (mIP) venograms in Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI) poses difficulties due to spatially varying baseline. Here, we introduce a modified version of the directional anisotropic diffusion which allows us to simultaneously reduce the noise and enhance vascular structures reconstructed using both M/mIP angiograms. This method is based on spatial adaptation of the diffusion function, separately in the directions of the gradient, and along those of the minimum and maximum curvatures. The existing approach of directional anisotropic diffusion uses binary switched diffusion function to ensure diffusion along the direction of maximum curvature stopped near the vessel borders. Here, the choice of a threshold for detecting the upper limit of diffusion becomes difficult in the presence of spatially varying baseline. Also, the approach of using vesselness measure to steer the diffusion process results in structural discontinuities due to junction suppression in mIP. The merits of the proposed method include elimination of the need for an apriori choice of a threshold to detect the vessel, and problems due to junction suppression. The proposed method is also extended to multi-channel phase contrast angiogram.
In [7] the authors have introduced a new construction using the Hadamard product to present star configurations of codimension $ c $ of $\mathbb{P}^n$ and which they called Hadamard star configurations. In this paper, we introduce a more general type of Hadamard star configuration. Any star configuration constructed by our approach is called a weak Hadamard star configuration. We classify weak Hadamard star configurations, and in the case $ c=n $, we investigate the existence of a (weak) Hadamard star configuration apolar to the generic homogeneous polynomials of degree $ d$.
The CM class number one problem for elliptic curves asked to find all elliptic curves defined over the rationals with non-trivial endomorphism ring. For genus-2 curves it is the problem of determining all CM curves of genus $2$ defined over the reflex field. We solve the problem by showing that the list given in Bouyer and Streng [LMS J. Comput. Math., 18(1):507{538, 2015] is complete.
This paper presents the integral(or differential) form of G-BSDEs, gives some kind of apriori estimates of their solutions, and under a very strong condition, proves the G-martingale representation theorem, and the existence and uniqueness theorem of G-BSDEs.
Kapranov's theorem is a foundational result in tropical geometry. It states that the set of tropicalisations of points on a hypersurface coincides precisely with the tropical variety of the tropicalisation of the defining polynomial. The aim of this paper is to generalise Kapranov's theorem, replacing the role of a valuation map, from a field to the real numbers union negative infinity, with a more general class of hyperfield homomorphisms, whose target is the tropical hyperfield and satisfy a relative algebraic closure condition. To provide an example of such a hyperfield homomorphism, the map from the complex tropical hyperfield to the tropical hyperfield is investigated. There is a brief outline of sufficient conditions for a hyperfield homomorphism to satisfy the relative algebraic closure condition.
We show that the assumption of a weak form of the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture on the Goldbach problem suffices to disprove the possible existence of exceptional zeros of Dirichlet L-functions. This strengthens a result of the authors named in the title.

It is an open question whether solutions of the Einstein-Euler equations are smooth enough to admit locally inertial coordinates at points of shock wave interaction, or whether "regularity singularities" can exist at such points. The term {\it regularity singularity} was proposed by the authors as a point in spacetime where the gravitational metric tensor is Lipschitz continuous ($C^{0,1}$), but no smoother, in any coordinate system of the $C^{1,1}$ atlas. An existence theory for shock wave solutions in $C^{0,1}$ admitting arbitrary interactions has been proven for the Einstein-Euler equations in spherically symmetric spacetimes, but $C^{1,1}$ is the requisite smoothness required for space-time to be locally flat. Thus the open problem of regularity singularities is the problem as to whether locally inertial coordinate systems exist at shock waves within the larger $C^{1,1}$ atlas. To clarify this open problem, we identify new "Coriolis type" effects in the geometry of $C^{0,1}$ shock wave metrics and prove they are essential in the sense that they can never be made to vanish within the atlas of {\it smooth} coordinate transformations, the atlas usually assumed in classical differential geometry. Thus the problem of existence of regularity singularities is equivalent to the question as to whether or not these Coriolis type effects are essentially non-removable and `real', or merely coordinate effects that can be removed, (in analogy to classical Coriolis forces), by going to the less regular atlas of $C^{1,1}$ transformations. If essentially non-removable, it would argue strongly for a `real' new physical effect for General Relativity, providing a physical context to the open problem of regularity singularities.
An analysis of the action of the Hamiltonian constraint of quantum gravity on the Kauffman bracket and Jones knot polynomials is proposed. It is explicitely shown that the Kauffman bracket is a formal solution of the Hamiltonian constraint with cosmological constant ($\Lambda$) to third order in $\Lambda$. The calculation is performed in the extended loop representation of quantum gravity. The analysis makes use of the analytical expressions of the knot invariants in terms of the two and three point propagators of the Chern-Simons theory. Some particularities of the extended loop calculus are considered and the implications of the results to the case of the conventional loop representation are discussed.
In this paper, we will present several new congruences involving binomial coefficients under integer moduli, which are the continuation of the previous two work by Cai \textit{et al.} (2002, 2007).
In this work we analyze some judiciously chosen solutions of Kerr Black Holes with Scalar Hair (KBHsSH) of special interest for Gravitational Wave (GW) events originated from Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals (EMRIs). Because of the off-center distribution of energy density, these spacetimes are warped in such a way that not all metric functions behave monotonically on the equatorial plane as in the exterior region of Kerr black holes (KBHs). This has great impact on the orbital parameters, which in turn affects the imprints on signals descendant from EMRIs in a adiabatic evolution. By investigating circular obit parameters, we unveil what qualitative features could be present in the signals that are new and distinct compared to KBHs, and we evolve some inspirals by employing the usual quadrupole formula approximation. We show that the frequencies of the emitted signals behave nonmonotonically, i.e. they can backward chirp, and for some particular cases they can become arbitrarily small, falling below LISA's sensibility range. Finally, we present two sets of waveforms produced by a noncircular EMRI in which the compact object (CO) follows a type of geodesic motion typically present in spacetimes with a static ring (SR), in which the compact object is periodically momentarily at rest.
Wavelet functions allow the sparse and efficient representation of a signal at different scales. Recently the application of wavelets to the denoising of maps of cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations has been proposed. The maximum-entropy method (MEM) is also often used for enhancing astronomical images and has been applied to CMB data. In this paper, we give a systematic discussion of combining these two approaches by the use of the MEM in wavelet bases for the denoising and deconvolution of CMB maps and more general images. Certain types of wavelet transforms, such as the a trous transform, can be viewed as a multi-channel intrinsic correlation function (ICF). We find that the wavelet MEM has lower reconstruction residuals than conventional pixel-basis MEM in the case when the signal-to-noise ratio is low and the point spread function narrow. Furthermore, the Bayesian evidence for the wavelet MEM reconstructions is generally higher for a wide range of images.   From a Bayesian point of view, the wavelet basis thus provides a better model of the image.
We present a theory of the isotope effect of the Curie temperature $T_{\rm c}$ in itinerant ferromagnets. The isotope effect in ferromagnets occurs via the electron-phonon vertex correction and the effective attractive interaction mediated by the electron-phonon interaction. The decrease of the Debye frequency increases the relative strength of the Coulomb interaction, which results in a positive isotope shift of $T_{\rm c}$ when the mass $M$ of an atom increases. Following this picture, we evaluate the isotope effect of $T_{\rm c}$ by using the Stoner theory and a spin-fluctuation theory. When $T_{\rm c}$ is large enough as large as or more than 100K, the isotope effect on $T_{\rm c}$ can be measurable. Recently, precise measurements on the oxygen isotope effect on $T_{\rm c}$ have been performed for itinerant ferromagnet SrRuO$_3$ with $T_{\rm c}\sim 160$K. A clear isotope effect has been observed with the positive shift of $T_{\rm c}\sim 1$K by isotope substitution ($^{16}O\rightarrow ^{18}O$). This experimental result is consistent with our theory.
Recently, a curious neutrino mass matrix has been proposed: it is related to up-quark masses, and it can excellently give a nearly tribimaxial mixing. It is pointed out that, in order to obtain such successful results, three phenomenological relations among masses and CKM parameters must be simultaneously satisfied. This suggests that there must be a specific flavor-basis in which down-quark and charged lepton mass matrices are simultaneously diagonalized.
We study the critical behavior of frustrated systems by means of Pade-Borel resummed three-loop renormalization-group expansions and numerical Monte Carlo simulations. Amazingly, for six-component spins where the transition is second order, both approaches disagree. This unusual situation is analyzed both from the point of view of the convergence of the resummed series and from the possible relevance of non perturbative effects.
The localization of waves in two-dimensional clusters of scatterers arranged in relatively twisted lattices is studied by multiple scattering theory. It is found that, for a given frequency, it is always possible to find localized modes for a discrete set of rotation angles, analogous to the so-called "magic angles" recently found in two-dimensional materials like graphene. Similarly, for small rotations of the lattices, a large number of resonant frequencies is found, whose position strongly depends on the rotation angle. Moreover, for angles close to those that make the two lattices commensurable a single mode appears that can be easily tuned by the rotation angle. Unlike other twisted materials, where the properties of the bilayers are mainly explained in terms of the dispersion relation of the individual lattices, the special angles in these clusters happen because of the formation of dipolar scatterers due to the relative rotation between the two lattices, enhancing therefore their interaction. While the presented results are valid for any type of wave, the specific case of flexural waves in thin elastic plates is numerically studied, and the different modes found are comprehensively explained in terms of the interaction between pairs of scatterers. The analysis presented here shows that these structures are promising candidates for the inverse design of tunable wave-trapping devices for classical waves.
Let $X$ be the blow up of $\mathbb{P}^2$ at $r$ general points $p_1,\ldots,p_r \in \mathbb{P}^2$. We study line bundles on $X$ given by plane curves of degree $d$ passing through $p_i$ with multiplicity $m_i$. We establish conditions for ampleness, very ampleness and global generation of such line bundles.
We identify three isotopic tracers that can be used to constrain the $^{13}C$-pocket and show the correlated isotopic ratios of Sr and Ba in single mainstream presolar SiC grains. These newly measured data can be explained by postprocess AGB model calculations with large $^{13}C$-pockets with a range of relatively low $^{13}C$ concentrations, which may suggest that multiple mixing processes contributed to the $^{13}C$-pocket formation in parent AGB stars.
The analysis of the structure, chemical stability, electronic and ferroelectric properties of the interfaces between Pt(001) and PbZrTiO$_3$(001) (PZT) have been performed with $ab$ $initio$ methods. We show that the chemical environment plays a critical role in determining the interfacial reconstruction and charge redistribution at the metal/oxide interfaces. We demonstrate that the difference in interfacial bonds formed at the Pt/PZT interfaces with (TiZr)O$_2$ - and PbO- termination of PZT essentially defines the effectiveness of the screening, and ease of polarisation switching in PZT-based capacitors. The imperfect screening in Pt/PZT/Pt capacitors is caused by strong interfacial bonds formed at the interface with (TiZr)O$_2$-terminated film, which is accompanied by the suppressed polarisation of PZT film. In contrast, the capacitors with PbO-terminated PZT show a negligible depolarising field and high polarisation, which is the consequence of weak bonds formed at this type of interfaces. The latter also causes a higher switching barrier than that in the former system.
Hyperuniform point patterns are characterized by vanishing infinite wavelength density fluctuations and encompass all crystal structures, certain quasi-periodic systems, and special disordered point patterns. This article generalizes the notion of hyperuniformity to include also two-phase random heterogeneous media. Hyperuniform random media do not possess infinite-wavelength volume fraction fluctuations, implying that the variance in the local volume fraction in an observation window decays faster than the reciprocal window volume as the window size increases. For microstructures of impenetrable and penetrable spheres, we derive an upper bound on the asymptotic coefficient governing local volume fraction fluctuations in terms of the corresponding quantity describing the variance in the local number density (i.e., number variance). Extensive calculations of the asymptotic number variance coefficients are performed for a number of disordered (e.g., quasiperiodic tilings, classical stealth disordered ground states, and certain determinantal point processes), quasicrystal, and ordered (e.g., Bravais and non-Bravais periodic systems) hyperuniform structures in various Euclidean space dimensions, and our results are consistent with a quantitative order metric characterizing the degree of hyperuniformity. We also present corresponding estimates for the asymptotic local volume fraction coefficients for several lattice families. Our results have interesting implications for a certain problem in number theory.
