description: Topological properties of the free topological group and the free abelian topological group on a space have been thoroughly studied since the 1940s. In this paper, we study the free topological $\mathbb{R}$-vector space $V(X)$ on $X$. We show that $V(X)$ is a quotient of the free abelian topological group on $[-1,1]\times X$, and use this to prove topological vector space analogues of existing results for free topological groups on pseudocompact spaces. As an application, we show that certain families of subspaces of $V(X)$ satisfy the so-called $\textit{algebraic colimit property}$ defined in the authors' previous work.
Non-local control in the conduction coefficients: well posedness and convergence to the local limit

description: We consider a problem of optimal distribution of conductivities in a system governed by a non-local diffusion law. The problem stems from applications in optimal design and more specifically topology optimization. We propose a novel parametrization of non-local material properties. With this parametrization the non-local diffusion law in the limit of vanishing non-local interaction horizons converges to the famous and ubiquitously used generalized Laplacian with SIMP (Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization) material model. The optimal control problem for the limiting local model is typically ill-posed and does not attain its infimum without additional regularization. Surprisingly, its non-local counterpart attains its global minima in many practical situations, as we demonstrate in this work. In spite of this qualitatively different behaviour, we are able to partially characterize the relationship between the non-local and the local optimal control problems. We also complement our theoretical findings with numerical examples, which illustrate the viability of our approach to optimal design practitioners.

description: Using data from a nationally representative survey of farm households in India we identify a causal link between dietary-diversity and farm level diversification. Propensity score matching techniques show that households which exclusively grow cereals (our treatment-group) consume significantly less diverse diet compared to those who grow both cereals and other crop-groups (our control-group). Various matching rules have been used to check for robustness of our results.

description: The joint modeling of longitudinal and survival data has received remarkable attention in the methodological literature over the past decade; however, the availability of software to implement the methods lags behind. The most common form of joint model assumes that the association between the survival and the longitudinal processes is underlined by shared random effects. As a result, computationally intensive numerical integration techniques such as adaptive Gauss–Hermite quadrature are required to evaluate the likelihood. We describe a new user-written command, stjm, that allows the user to jointly model a continuous longitudinal response and the time to an event of interest. We assume a linear mixed-effects model for the longitudinal submodel, allowing flexibility through the use of fixed or random fractional polynomials of time. Four choices are available for the survival submodel: the exponential, Weibull or Gompertz proportional hazard models, and the flexible parametric model (stpm2). Flexible parametric models are fit on the log cumulative-hazard scale, which has direct computational benefits because it avoids the use of numerical integration to evaluate the cumulative hazard. We describe the features of stjm through application to a dataset investigating the effect of serum bilirubin level on time to death from any cause in 312 patients with primary biliary cirrhosis.

description: The Maximum Likelihood Decoding Problem (MLD) is known to be NP-hard and its complexity is strictly related to the security of some post-quantum cryptosystems, that is, the so-called code-based primitives. Analogously, the Multivariate Quadratic System Problem (MQ) is NP-hard and its complexity is necessary for the security of the so-called multivariate-based primitives. In this paper we present a closed formula for a polynomial-time reduction from any instance of MLD to an instance of MQ, and viceversa. We also show a polynomial-time isomorphism between MQ and MLD, thus demonstrating the direct link between the two post-quantum cryptographic families.

description: A common aim of epidemiological research is to assess the association between a particular exposure and a particular outcome, controlling for a set of additional covariates. This is often done by using a regression model for the outcome, conditional on exposure and covariates. A commonly used class of models is the generalized linear models. The model parameters are typically estimated through maximum likelihood. If the model is correct, then the maximum likelihood estimator is consistent but may otherwise be inconsistent. Recently, a new class of estimators known as doubly robust estimators has been proposed. These estimators use two regression models, one for the outcome and one for the exposure, and are consistent if either model is correct, not necessarily both. Thus doubly robust estimators give the analyst two chances instead of only one to make valid inference. In this article, we describe a new Stata command, drglm, that implements the most common doubly robust estimators for generalized linear models.

description: The remarkable ability of certain molecules with a bent molecular shape to form hierarchically self-assembled helical building blocks with negative Gaussian or cylindrical curvature featuring in-layer hexatic ordering– so-called B4 phases – has quickly transformed these molecules into desirable building blocks for a variety of potential applications in optics, energy harvesting, and metamaterials. We here demonstrate that these building blocks, helical nanofilaments, helical microfilaments, and heliconical-layered nanocylinders, can to some degree be predictably blended. Supported by scanning as well as transmission electron microscopy and variable angle x-ray scattering data, the three bent-core compounds, each forming exactly one of these B4 morphologies, in binary mixtures at a 1:1 molar ratio, form either the third missing, or one of the two but with opposite handedness, or a random mixture of the two selected morphologies with larger overall dimensions. Furthermore, for two of the mixtures the a priori predicted handedness of the chiral filaments was experimentally confirmed. The third mixture with a priori predicted antagonistic handedness of the initial morphologies forms a combination of the two, one apparently achiral and the other one with opposite handedness.

description: The jet photosphere has been proposed as the origin for the gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission. In many such models, characteristic features in the spectra appear below the energy range of the $\textit{Fermi}$ GBM detectors, so joint fits with X-ray data are important in order to assess the photospheric scenario. Here we consider a particular photospheric model which assumes localized subphotospheric dissipation by internal shocks in a non-magnetized outflow. We investigate it using Bayesian inference and a sample of 8 GRBs with known redshifts which are observed simultaneously with $\textit{Fermi}$ GBM and $\textit{Swift}$ XRT. This provides us with an energy range of $0.3$~keV to $40$~MeV and much tighter parameter constraints. We analyze 32 spectra and find that 16 are well described by the model. We also find that the estimates of the bulk Lorentz factor, $Γ$, and the fireball luminosity, $L_{0,52}$, decrease while the fraction of dissipated energy, $\varepsilon_{\mathrm{d}}$, increase in the joint fits compared to GBM only fits. These changes are caused by a small excess of counts in the XRT data, relative to the model predictions from fits to GBM only data. The fact that our limited implementation of the physical scenario yields 50\% accepted spectra is promising, and we discuss possible model revisions in the light of the new data. Specifically, we argue that the inclusion of significant magnetization, as well as removing the assumption of internal shocks, will provide better fits at low energies.

description: We propose a realization of a scalable, high-performance quantum processor whose qubits are represented by the ground and subradiant states of effective dimers formed by pairs of two-level systems coupled by resonant dipole-dipole interaction. The dimers are implanted in low-temperature solid host material at controllable nanoscale separations. The two-qubit entanglement either relies on the coherent excitation exchange between the dimers or is mediated by external laser fields.

description: Nanocomposite mesoporous Ag0(NPs)/TiO2 thin film materials were synthesized and assessed for its efficient application in the elimination of potentially important drug triclosan from aqueous solutions. A template synthesis using the polyethylene glycol was enabled to obtain the Ag0(NPs)/TiO2 nanocomposite materials where zerovalent Ag was in situ doped to the titania network. The nanocomposite materials were characterized by the scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscope (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) elemental mapping, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) methods. Further, the diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) was introduced to estimate the band gap of these solids. The thin film materials were subjected for the remediation of water contaminated with triclosan using the UV-A light. The oxidative elimination of triclosan was demonstrated as a function of pH, concentration of triclosan and presence of several co-existing ions. Increase in pH (4.0–10.0) and triclosan concentrations (0.5–15.0 mg/L) had decreased significantly the percentage degradation of triclosan. The pseudo-first order kinetics was shown in degradation of triclosan and rate constant was significantly decreased with the increase in pollutant concentration (0.5–15.0 mg/L) and pH (4.0–10.0). The 1000 times presence of scavengers showed that •OH were, predominantly, caused the oxidation of triclosan. Moreover, multiple application of nanocomposite Ag0(NPs)/TiO2(B) revealed that the thin film was fairly intact since the photocatalytic efficiency of triclosan removal was almost unaffected.

description: A field of 1.013 ster in the ROSAT all-sky survey (RASS), centered on the south galactic pole (SGP), has been searched in a systematic, objective manner for clusters of galaxies. The procedure relied on a correlation of the X-ray positions and properties of ROSAT sources with the distribution of galaxies in the COSMOS digitised data base, which was obtained by scanning the plates of the UK Schmidt IIIa-J optical southern sky survey. The study used the second ROSAT survey data base (RASS-2) and included several optical observing campaigns to measure redshifts. The search, a precursor to the larger REFLEX survey of the whole southern sky, reached the detection limits of the RASS and the COSMOS data, and yielded a catalog of 186 clusters in which the lowest flux is 1.5e-12 erg/cm2/s in the 0.1-2.4 keV band. Of these 157 have measured redshifts. Using a limit of 3.0e-12 erg/cm2/s a complete subset of 112 clusters was obtained, of which 110 have measured redshifts. The spatial distribution of the X-ray clusters out to z = 0.15 shows an extension of the Local Supercluster to the Pisces-Cetus supercluster (z

description: We report molecular line and continuum observations toward one of the most massive giant molecular clouds (GMCs), GMC-16, in M33 using ALMA with an angular resolution of 0$''$44 $\times$ 0$''$27 ($\sim$2 pc $\times$ 1 pc). We have found that the GMC is composed of several filamentary structures in $^{12}$CO and $^{13}$CO ($J$ = 2-1). The typical length, width, and total mass are $\sim$50-70 pc, $\sim$5-6 pc, and $\sim$10$^{5}$ $M_{\odot}$, respectively, which are consistent with those of giant molecular filaments (GMFs) as seen in the Galactic GMCs. The elongations of the GMFs are roughly perpendicular to the direction of the galaxy's rotation, and several H$\;${\sc ii} regions are located at the downstream side relative to the filaments with an offset of $\sim$10-20 pc. These observational results indicate that the GMFs are considered to be produced by a galactic spiral shock. The 1.3 mm continuum and C$^{18}$O ($J$ = 2-1) observations detected a dense clump with the size of $\sim$2 pc at the intersection of several filamentary clouds, which is referred to as the $"$hub filament,$"$ possibly formed by a cloud-cloud collision. A strong candidate for protostellar outflow in M33 has also been identified at the center of the clump. We have successfully resolved the parsec-scale local star formation activity in which the galactic scale kinematics may induce the formation of the parental filamentary clouds.

description: We prove an analytic version of the stable graph regularity lemma from \cite{MaSh}, which applies to stable functions $f\colon V\times W\to [0,1]$. Our methods involve continuous model theory and, in particular, results on the structure of local Keisler measures for stable continuous formulas. Along the way, we develop some basic tools around ultraproducts of metric structures and linear functionals on continuous formulas, and we also describe several concrete families of examples of stable functions.

description: Silver doped PANI/CNT (Ag-PANI/CNT) nanocomposite was synthesized and investigated as adsorbent for its possible application in the elimination of organic dye Brilliant Blue G (BBG). The morphological characteristics of Ag-PANI/CNT were studied using Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, elemental mapping, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The response of operational parameters given as adsorbent dosage, concentration, pH and contact time for dye removal were investigated by using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The results from RSM suggested that the efficiency of BBG elimination is 98.7 under the optimum conditions of experimental factors. The adsorption studies showed that the equilibrium data fitted well with Langmuir isotherm model compared to Freundlich. Finally, the antimicrobial activities of Ag-PANI/CNT were tested against bacterial strain Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhi and fungal strains Aspergillus niger.

Cournot Competition as a Continuous State Space Markov Chain

Cournot competition

description: The Cournot competition is a game in which two firms vie to produce the optimal quantity of a good. Perfectly rational and fully informed firms would produce the quantities given by the Nash equilibrium, the point at which neither firm could improve their payoff by changing their action. Although the Nash equilibrium for the Cournot competition is well understood, there are several proposed models describing how firms that are not fully informed or perfectly rational might still learn the Nash equilibrium. Two commonly used models are fictitious play and the successive best response strategy. I build on these by using a Markov chain, a model for the evolution of random systems, to capture the probabilistic behavior of imperfect firms. Most of the theory and applications of Markov chains deals with finite or countable state spaces. In order to make sense in the context of game theory, the theory of Markov chains on arbitrary state spaces must first be presented. I will provide the relevant results for general state space theory, then describe its novel applications for learning Nash equilibria in the Cournot model.

description: We give a new construction of the minimal unitary representation of the exceptional group E_8(8) on a Hilbert space of complex functions in 29 variables. Due to their manifest covariance with respect to the E_7(7) subgroup of E_8(8) our formulas are simpler than previous realizations, and thus well suited for applications in superstring and M theory.

Neuronal coupling benefits the encoding of weak periodic signals in symbolic spike patterns

description: A good understanding of how neurons use electrical pulses (i.e, spikes) to encode the signal information remains elusive. Analyzing spike sequences generated by individual neurons and by two coupled neurons (using the stochastic FitzHugh-Nagumo model), recent theoretical studies have found that the relative timing of the spikes can encode the signal information. Using a symbolic method to analyze the spike sequence, preferred and infrequent spike patterns were detected, whose probabilities vary with both, the amplitude and the frequency of the signal. To investigate if this encoding mechanism is plausible also for neuronal ensembles, here we analyze the activity of a group of neurons, when they all perceive a weak periodic signal. We find that, as in the case of one or two coupled neurons, the probabilities of the spike patterns, now computed from the spike sequences of all the neurons, depend on the signal's amplitude and period, and thus, the patterns' probabilities encode the information of the signal. We also find that the resonances with the period of the signal or with the noise level are more pronounced when a group of neurons perceive the signal, in comparison with when only one or two coupled neurons perceive it. Neuronal coupling is beneficial for signal encoding as a group of neurons is able to encode a small-amplitude signal, which could not be encoded when it is perceived by just one or two coupled neurons. Interestingly, we find that for a group of neurons, just a few connections with one another can significantly improve the encoding of small-amplitude signals. Our findings indicate that information encoding in preferred and infrequent spike patterns is a plausible mechanism that can be employed by neuronal populations to encode weak periodic inputs, exploiting the presence of neural noise.

description: We describe an experimental scheme of preparing multipartite W class of maximally entangled states between many atomic ensembles. The scheme is based on laser manipulation of atomic ensembles and single-photon detection, and well fits the status of the current experimental technology. In addition, we show one of the applications of the kind of W class states, teleporting an entangled state of atomic ensembles with unknown coefficients to more than one distant parties, either one of which equally likely receives the transmitted state.

description: In this study, we developed a nanoparticle-based mesoporous composite that consisted of silicate-titanate nanotubes (STNTs) supported in hydrogel chitosan beads (STNTs-Ch beads) and was studied for Cd2+ adsorption. By using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy coupled to an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer, we could determine that the hollow STNTs were highly dispersed in the walls of the hollow beads. The dispersion was attributed to the effect of pH when the composite was prepared and we observed a non-interaction between STNTs and chitosan. The adsorption studies of Cd2+ showed that the kinetic rate (k2) increased 3-fold and that the diffusion rate (Kd) increased 2-fold after the embedment. Moreover, the maximum capacity of adsorption of STNTs-Ch beads was 2.3 times higher than that of STNTs alone. The treatment of a synthetic Cd2+ solution and a real leachate in continuous mode showed two phases in which it was observed higher removed fractions of transition metal ions (Cd2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Zn2+ and Cu2+) and the post-transition metal ion Pb2+, in comparison to the removed fractions of alkali and alkali-earth metal ions (Ca2+, K+, Mg2+). The composite was successfully reused four times when adsorbing Cd2+, saving three times the needed amounts of TiO2, SiO2 and chitosan for the production of the material. This composite was produced in a simple way and shows the potential for wastewater treatment.
FaSS-MVS -- Fast Multi-View Stereo with Surface-Aware Semi-Global Matching from UAV-borne Monocular Imagery

description: With FaSS-MVS, we present an approach for fast multi-view stereo with surface-aware Semi-Global Matching that allows for rapid depth and normal map estimation from monocular aerial video data captured by UAVs. The data estimated by FaSS-MVS, in turn, facilitates online 3D mapping, meaning that a 3D map of the scene is immediately and incrementally generated while the image data is acquired or being received. FaSS-MVS is comprised of a hierarchical processing scheme in which depth and normal data, as well as corresponding confidence scores, are estimated in a coarse-to-fine manner, allowing to efficiently process large scene depths which are inherent to oblique imagery captured by low-flying UAVs. The actual depth estimation employs a plane-sweep algorithm for dense multi-image matching to produce depth hypotheses from which the actual depth map is extracted by means of a surface-aware semi-global optimization, reducing the fronto-parallel bias of SGM. Given the estimated depth map, the pixel-wise surface normal information is then computed by reprojecting the depth map into a point cloud and calculating the normal vectors within a confined local neighborhood. In a thorough quantitative and ablative study we show that the accuracies of the 3D information calculated by FaSS-MVS is close to that of state-of-the-art approaches for offline multi-view stereo, with the error not even being one magnitude higher than that of COLMAP. At the same time, however, the average run-time of FaSS-MVS to estimate a single depth and normal map is less than 14 % of that of COLMAP, allowing to perform an online and incremental processing of Full-HD imagery at 1-2 Hz.

description: High-energy particle transport in pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) plays an essential role in explaining the characteristics revealed in multiwavelength observations. In this paper, the TeV-gamma-ray-emitting electrons in the Vela X PWN are approximated to be injected impulsively when the cocoon is formed due to the interaction between the SNR reverse shock and the PWN. By solving the diffusion-loss equation analytically, we reproduce the broadband spectral energy distribution and surface brightness profile simultaneously. The diffusion coefficient of TeV electrons and positrons, which is well constrained by the spectral and spatial properties of the TeV nebula, is thus determined to be $1 \times 10^{26}$\,cm$^{2}$\,s$^{-1}$ for 10\,TeV electrons and positrons. This coefficient is more than three orders of magnitude lower than that in the interstellar medium, in agreement with a constraint recently obtained from HAWC observations of a TeV nebula associated with the Geminga pulsar. These results suggest that slow diffusion of high-energy particles might be common in PWNe.

description: We report on Chandra imaging observations of the Galactic Unidentified $γ$-ray source GEV J1809-2327, comparing the X-ray images with new VLA 1.46 GHz and 4.86 GHz maps. The X-ray images reveal a point source connected to a non-thermal X-ray/radio nebula, supporting a pulsar/wind model for the $γ$-ray emitter. We also detect numerous X-ray sources from the young stellar association in the adjacent HII region S32.
