description: This paper derives a free analog of the Euler-Maruyama method (fEMM) to numerically approximate solutions of free stochastic differential equations (fSDEs). Simply speaking fSDEs are stochastic differential equations in the context of non-commutative random variables (e.g. large random matrices). By applying the theory of multiple operator integrals we derive a free Itô formula from Taylor expansion of operator valued functions. Iterating the free Itô formula allows to motivate and define fEMM. Then we consider weak and strong convergence in the fSDE setting and prove strong convergence order of $\frac{1}{2}$ and weak convergence order of ${1}$. Numerical examples support the theoretical results and show solutions for equations where no analytical solution is known.

description: The $K$-$k$-Schur functions and $k$-Schur functions appeared in the study of $K$-theoretic and affine Schubert Calculus as polynomial representatives of Schubert classes. In this paper, we introduce a new family of symmetric functions $\mathcal{F}_λ^{(k)}$, that generalizes the constructions via the Pieri rule of $K$-$k$-Schur functions and $ k$-Schur functions. Then we obtain the Murnaghan-Nakayama rule for the generalized functions. The rule is described explicitly in the cases of $K$-$k$-Schur functions and $k$-Schur functions, with concrete descriptions and algorithms for coefficients. Our work recovers the result of Bandlow, Schilling, and Zabrocki for $k$-Schur functions, and explains it as a degeneration of the rule for $K$-$k$-Schur functions. In particular, many other special cases and connections promise to be detailed in the future.

description: Distribution of Cephennomicrus Reitter
Most species of Cephennomicrus (Fig. 10) are known to occur within the historical area of Sundaland and adjacent continental subtropics, reaching to the north as far as Tsushima Island (Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan). Several species are known to occur in the southernmost Japanese islands of the Ryukyus and Taiwan, but only two have been so far discovered in the subtropical mainland China. Within the Oriental region, Cephennomicrus reaches Sri Lanka in the west, but no species are known so far from India. Southeast of the Wallace Line, Cephennomicrus is known from Papua New Guinea and southwestern and southeastern Australia; further to the east the genus range extends through Lord Howe Island, New Caledonia and Fiji to Samoa. In the Afrotropical region, Cephennomicrus is rare in the southeastern portion of the continent, but common and abundant in Madagascar (with several dozen species awaiting description); several yet unrevised species occur in the Comoros, Reunion, Mauritius and Seychelles.
Such a distribution of extant species might suggest Gondwanian origins, with Oriental taxa dispersed from Africa via the drifting Indian subcontinent, and the Sundaland colonized from continental Asia or/and Australia. However, a recent discovery of a relatively species-rich Cephennomicrus community in Europe (present day Ukraine) during Eocene (Priabonian) (Jałoszyński & Perkovsky 2016) suggests a broader distribution of this genus ca. 40 mya, followed by extinction on vast areas of Eurasia. Further studies focused on reconstructing the phylogeny and searching for new fossils must be undertaken to clarify the origins of Cephennomicrus.

description: We discuss differences and similarities between variational Monte Carlo approaches that use conventional and artificial neural network parameterizations of the ground-state wave function for systems of fermions. We focus on a relatively shallow neural-network architectures, the so called restricted Boltzmann machine, and discuss unsupervised learning algorithms that are suitable to model complicated many-body correlations. We analyze the strengths and weaknesses of conventional and neural-network wave functions by solving various circular quantum-dots systems. Results for up to 90 electrons are presented and particular emphasis is placed on how to efficiently implement these methods on homogeneous and heterogeneous high-performance computing facilities.

description: Systemic blood stream infections are a major threat to human health and are dramatically increasing worldwide. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a WHO-alerted multi-resistant pathogen of extreme importance as a cause of sepsis. Septicemia patients have significantly increased survival chances if sepsis is diagnosed in the early stages. Affinity materials can not only represent attractive tools for specific diagnostics of pathogens in the blood but can prospectively also serve as the technical foundation of therapeutic filtration devices. Based on the recently developed aptamers directed against P. aeruginosa, we here present aptamer-functionalized beads for specific binding of this pathogen in blood samples. These aptamer capture beads (ACBs) are manufactured by crosslinking bovine serum albumin (BSA) in an emulsion and subsequent functionalization with the amino-modified aptamers on the bead surface using the thiol- and amino-reactive bispecific crosslinker PEG4-SPDP. Specific and quantitative binding of P. aeruginosa as the dedicated target of the ACBs was demonstrated in serum and blood. These initial but promising results may open new routes for the development of ACBs as a platform technology for fast and reliable diagnosis of bloodstream infections and, in the long term, blood filtration techniques in the fight against sepsis.

description: The Nash equilibrium concept has previously been shown to be an important tool to understand human sensorimotor interactions, where different actors vie for minimizing their respective effort while engaging in a multi-agent motor task. However, it is not clear how such equilibria are reached. Here, we compare different reinforcement learning models to human behavior engaged in sensorimotor interactions with haptic feedback based on three classic games, including the prisoner’s dilemma, and the symmetric and asymmetric matching pennies games. We find that a discrete analysis that reduces the continuous sensorimotor interaction to binary choices as in classical matrix games does not allow to distinguish between the different learning algorithms, but that a more detailed continuous analysis with continuous formulations of the learning algorithms and the game-theoretic solutions affords different predictions. In particular, we find that Q-learning with intrinsic costs that disfavor deviations from average behavior explains the observed data best, even though all learning algorithms equally converge to admissible Nash equilibrium solutions. We therefore conclude that it is important to study different learning algorithms for understanding sensorimotor interactions, as such behavior cannot be inferred from a game-theoretic analysis alone, that simply focuses on the Nash equilibrium concept, as different learning algorithms impose preferences on the set of possible equilibrium solutions due to the inherent learning dynamics.

description: A quasi-Hamiltonian manifold is called multiplicity free if all of its symplectic reductions are 0-dimensional. In this paper, we classify compact, multiplicity free, twisted quasi-Hamiltonian manifolds for simply connected, compact Lie groups. Thereby, we recover old and find new examples of these structures.

The Effectiveness of a Simple Helmholtz coil-like Magnetic Shield at Reducing X-ray-like Background in Space-based X-ray Detectors

description: Both active and passive magnetic shielding have been used extensively during past and current X-ray astronomy missions to shield detectors from soft protons and electrons entering through telescope optics. However, simulations performed throughout the past decade have discovered that a significant proportion of X-ray-like background originates from secondary electrons produced in spacecraft shielding surrounding X-ray detectors, which hit detectors isotropically from all directions. Here, the results from Geant4 simulations of a simple Helmholtz coil-like magnetic field surrounding a detector are presented, and it is found that a Helmholtz coil-like magnetic field is extremely effective at preventing secondary electrons from reaching the detector. This magnetic shielding method could remove almost all background associated with both backscattering electrons and fully absorbed soft electrons, which together are expected to account for approximately two thirds of the expected off-axis background in silicon-based X-ray detectors of several hundred microns in thickness. The magnetic field structure necessary for doing this could easily be produced using a set of solenoids or neodymium magnets providing that power requirements can be sufficiently optimised or neodymium fluorescence lines can be sufficiently attenuated, respectively.

Разрушающий и неразрушающий контроль, как методы определения технического состояния гидротехнического сооружения

description: Большинство гидротехнических сооружений (ГТС) построены в середине ХХ века, откуда следует, что им необходима реконструкция для продления сроков эксплуатации, их надежности и безопасности. Объект: канал «Широкий» на Сарпинской оросительно-обводнительной системе (СООС). Цель и задачи нашего исследования заключаются в изучении технического состояния ГТС Сарпинской ООС Республики Калмыкия. Исследование нацелено на выявление проблемных участков системы и дальнейших рекомендаций в реконструкции и разработке защитных мероприятий. Сотрудниками ФНЦ агроэкологии РАН в мае 2024 г. был проведен полевой выезд на Сарпинскую ООС. Испытания образцов на сжатия, для метода разрушающего контроля, проводились в лабораторных условиях ФНЦ агроэкологии РАН. В исследовании были применены два метода: 1) метод разрушающего контроль с применением лабораторного оборудования «Машины испытательной универсальной (МИМ.4-1000-2.1-12.1.1-2.1.1-1.2)»; 2) метод неразрушающего контроля с применением георадара «ОКО-3». Для первого метода исследований был произведён отбор 6 образцов керн бетона с помощью алмазного бура для дальнейших испытаний образцов на сжатие. Данный метод показал, что образцы № 3, 4, 5,6 были разрушены при минимальной нагрузке – 116…118 кН, что говорит о сильном износе бетонного покрытия гидротехнического сооружения, что усложняется близким залеганием подземных вод и несет за собой дальнейшее повреждение покрытия. Второй методом исследования был проведен при помощи георадара. При дешифрировании на симках мы можем наблюдать выявленные неоднородности тела: поверхностные локальные разрушения и пустоты в железобетонной конструкции сооружения, также различимы зоны протечек и фильтрации. Из полученных результатов следует, что каналу «Широкий» на Сарпинской ООС требуется реконструкция для предотвращения фильтрационных потерь.

description: Machine learning models have found numerous successful applications in computational drug discovery. A large body of these models represents molecules as sequences since molecular sequences are easily available, simple, and informative. The sequence-based models often segment molecular sequences into pieces called chemical words (analogous to the words that make up sentences in human languages) and then apply advanced natural language processing techniques for tasks such as $\textit{de novo}$ drug design, property prediction, and binding affinity prediction. However, the chemical characteristics and significance of these building blocks, chemical words, remain unexplored. This study aims to investigate the chemical vocabularies generated by popular subword tokenization algorithms, namely Byte Pair Encoding (BPE), WordPiece, and Unigram, and identify key chemical words associated with protein-ligand binding. To this end, we build a language-inspired pipeline that treats high affinity ligands of protein targets as documents and selects key chemical words making up those ligands based on tf-idf weighting. Further, we conduct case studies on a number of protein families to analyze the impact of key chemical words on binding. Through our analysis, we find that these key chemical words are specific to protein targets and correspond to known pharmacophores and functional groups. Our findings will help shed light on the chemistry captured by the chemical words, and by machine learning models for drug discovery at large.

description: We study the combination of the hyperfine and Zeeman structure in the spin–orbit coupled ${A}^{1}{\Sigma }_{u}^{+}-{b}^{3}{\Pi }_{u}$ complex of ${}^{87}{\mathrm{Rb}}_{2}$. For this purpose, absorption spectroscopy at a magnetic field around $B=1000$ G is carried out. We drive optical dipole transitions from the lowest rotational state of an ultracold Feshbach molecule to various vibrational levels with ${0}^{+}$ symmetry of the $A-b$ complex. In contrast to previous measurements with rotationally excited alkali-dimers, we do not observe equal spacings of the hyperfine levels. In addition, the spectra vary substantially for different vibrational quantum numbers, and exhibit large splittings of up to $160$ MHz, unexpected for ${0}^{+}$ states. The level structure is explained to be a result of the repulsion between the states ${0}^{+}$ and ${0}^{-}$ of ${b}^{3}{\Pi }_{u}$, coupled via hyperfine and Zeeman interactions. In general, ${0}^{-}$ and ${0}^{+}$ have a spin–orbit induced energy spacing Δ, that is different for the individual vibrational states. From each measured spectrum we are able to extract Δ, which otherwise is not easily accessible in conventional spectroscopy schemes. We obtain values of Δ in the range of $\pm 100$ GHz which can be described by coupled channel calculations if a spin–orbit coupling is introduced that is different for ${0}^{-}$ and ${0}^{+}$ of ${b}^{3}{\Pi }_{u}$.

description: Extreme streamflow is a key indicator of flood risk, and quantifying the changes in its distribution under non-stationary climate conditions is key to mitigating the impact of flooding events. We propose a non-stationary process mixture model (NPMM) for annual streamflow maxima over the central US (CUS) which uses downscaled climate model precipitation projections to forecast extremal streamflow. Spatial dependence for the model is specified as a convex combination of transformed Gaussian and max-stable processes, indexed by a weight parameter which identifies the asymptotic regime of the process. The weight parameter is modeled as a function of the annual precipitation for each of the two hydrologic regions within the CUS, introducing spatio-temporal non-stationarity within the model. The NPMM is flexible with desirable tail dependence properties, but yields an intractable likelihood. To address this, we embed a neural network within a density regression model which is used to learn a synthetic likelihood function using simulations from the NPMM with different parameter settings. Our model is fitted using observational data for 1972--2021, and inference carried out in a Bayesian framework. The two regions within the CUS are estimated to be in different asymptotic regimes based on the posterior distribution of the weight parameter. Annual streamflow maxima estimates based on global climate models for two representative climate pathway scenarios suggest an overall increase in the frequency and magnitude of extreme streamflow for 2006-2035 compared to the historical period of 1972-2005.

These baffles will be equipped with photosensors, allowing for real-time monitoring of the stray light around the mirrors. In this paper, we present optical simulations of the light distribution in the detector main cavities to assess the ability of the sensors to effectively monitor misalignment and defects on the mirrors surface and to play a role in the pre-alignment of the interferometer.

description: The American healthcare industry has been victim to several hacks in recent times. This has caused the U.S. to lose millions of dollars to ransomware and hacks. Also, several sensitive information are subject to frequent loss during these attacks. Furthermore, the cost of healthcare is obviously expensive for millions of Americans, domestically and abroad. Can cross-border healthcare be possible? Blockchain technology can be a means to achieving this while protecting sensitive data in line with the domestic laws and regulations. With Americans and healthcare providers being able to access their health information anywhere in the world, healthcare administration can be done seamlessly. Also, everyone has the choice on which information to share, thereby being in control of his/her medical records.

description: We study thermalization of transverse field Ising chain with power law decaying interaction $\sim 1/r^α$ following a global quantum quench of the transverse field to two different dynamical regimes. We quantify the thermalization behavior by comparing the full probability distribution function (PDF) of the evolving states with the corresponding thermal state given by the Gibbs canonical ensemble (GCE). To this end, we use matrix product state (MPS) based time dependent variational principle (TDVP) algorithm to simulate both real time evolution following a global quantum quench and the finite temperature density operator. We observe that thermalization is strongly suppressed in the region with strong confinement for all the interaction strength $α$ considered whereas thermalization occurs in the region with weak confinement.

description: A (non-commutative) Ulam quasimorphism is a map $q$ from a group $Γ$ to a topological group $G$ such that $q(xy)q(y)^{-1}q(x)^{-1}$ belongs to a fixed compact subset of $G$. Generalizing the construction of Barge and Ghys, we build a family of quasimorphisms on a fundamental group of a closed manifold $M$ of negative sectional curvature, taking values in an arbitrary Lie group. This construction, which generalizes the Barge-Ghys quasimorphisms, associates a quasimorphism to any principal $G$-bundle with connection on $M$. Kapovich and Fujiwara have shown that all quasimorphisms taking values in a discrete group can be constructed from group homomorphisms and quasimorphisms taking values in a commutative group. We construct Barge-Ghys type quasimorphisms taking prescribed values on a given subset in $Γ$, producing counterexamples to the Kapovich and Fujiwara theorem for quasimorphisms taking values in a Lie group. Our construction also generalizes a result proven by D. Kazhdan in his paper ``On $ε$-representations''. Kazhdan has proved that for any $ε>0$, there exists an $ε$-representation of the fundamental group of a Riemann surface of genus 2 which cannot be $1/10$-approximated by a representation. We generalize his result by constructing an $ε$-representation of the fundamental group of a closed manifold of negative sectional curvature taking values in an arbitrary Lie group.

Generalized Zurek's bound on the cost of an individual classical or quantum computation

description: We consider the minimal thermodynamic cost of an individual computation, where a single input $x$ is mapped to a single output $y$. In prior work, Zurek proposed that this cost was given by $K(x\vert y)$, the conditional Kolmogorov complexity of $x$ given $y$ (up to an additive constant which does not depend on $x$ or $y$). However, this result was derived from an informal argument, applied only to deterministic computations, and had an arbitrary dependence on the choice of protocol (via the additive constant). Here we use stochastic thermodynamics to derive a generalized version of Zurek's bound from a rigorous Hamiltonian formulation. Our bound applies to all quantum and classical processes, whether noisy or deterministic, and it explicitly captures the dependence on the protocol. We show that $K(x\vert y)$ is a minimal cost of mapping $x$ to $y$ that must be paid using some combination of heat, noise, and protocol complexity, implying a tradeoff between these three resources. Our result is a kind of "algorithmic fluctuation theorem" with implications for the relationship between the Second Law and the Physical Church-Turing thesis.

description: Magnetic skyrmions have emerged as promising elements for encoding information towards biomimetic computing applications due to their pseudoparticle nature and efficient coupling to spin currents. A key hindrance for skyrmionic devices is their instability against elongation at zero magnetic field (ZF). Prevailing materials approaches focussed on tailoring skyrmion energetics have found ZF configurations to be highly sensitive, which imposes significant growth constraints and limits their device scalability. Here we propose that designer ZF skyrmion configurations can be robustly stabilized within chiral multilayer stacks by exploiting a duet of interlayer exchange couplings (IECs). Microscopic imaging experiments show that varying the two IECs enables the coarse and fine-tuning of ZF skyrmion stability and density. Micromagnetic simulations reveal that the duo-IEC approach is distinguished by its influence on the kinetics of skyrmion nucleation, in addition to the ability to tailor energetics, resulting in a substantially expanded parameter space, and enhanced stability for individual ZF skyrmions. Our work underscores the importance of IEC as a means of stabilizing and controlling ZF skyrmions, paving the way to scalable skyrmion-based devices.

description: Neurosymbolic AI is an increasingly active area of research that combines symbolic reasoning methods with deep learning to leverage their complementary benefits. As knowledge graphs are becoming a popular way to represent heterogeneous and multi-relational data, methods for reasoning on graph structures have attempted to follow this neurosymbolic paradigm. Traditionally, such approaches have utilized either rule-based inference or generated representative numerical embeddings from which patterns could be extracted. However, several recent studies have attempted to bridge this dichotomy to generate models that facilitate interpretability, maintain competitive performance, and integrate expert knowledge. Therefore, we survey methods that perform neurosymbolic reasoning tasks on knowledge graphs and propose a novel taxonomy by which we can classify them. Specifically, we propose three major categories: (1) logically-informed embedding approaches, (2) embedding approaches with logical constraints, and (3) rule learning approaches. Alongside the taxonomy, we provide a tabular overview of the approaches and links to their source code, if available, for more direct comparison. Finally, we discuss the unique characteristics and limitations of these methods, then propose several prospective directions toward which this field of research could evolve.

description: Accurate and smooth global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning for pedestrians in urban canyons is still a challenge due to the multipath effects and the non-light-of-sight (NLOS) receptions caused by the reflections from surrounding buildings. The recently developed factor graph optimization (FGO) based GNSS positioning method opened a new window for improving urban GNSS positioning by effectively exploiting the measurement redundancy from the historical information to resist the outlier measurements. Unfortunately, the FGO-based GNSS standalone positioning is still challenged in highly urbanized areas. As an extension of the previous FGO-based GNSS positioning method, this paper exploits the potential of the pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) model in FGO to improve the GNSS standalone positioning performance in urban canyons. Specifically, the relative motion of the pedestrian is estimated based on the raw acceleration measurements from the onboard smartphone inertial measurement unit (IMU) via the PDR algorithm. Then the raw GNSS pseudorange, Doppler measurements, and relative motion from PDR are integrated using the FGO. Given the context of pedestrian navigation with a small acceleration most of the time, a novel soft motion model is proposed to smooth the states involved in the factor graph model. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified step-by-step through two datasets collected in dense urban canyons of Hong Kong using smartphone-level GNSS receivers. The comparison between the conventional extended Kalman filter, several existing methods, and FGO-based integration is presented. The results reveal that the existing FGO-based GNSS standalone positioning is highly complementary to the PDR's relative motion estimation. Both improved positioning accuracy and trajectory smoothness are obtained with the help of the proposed method.

description: Using methods from enriched enumerative geometry, Larson and Vogt gave a signed count of the number of real bitangents to real smooth plane quartics. This signed count depends on a choice of a distinguished line. Larson and Vogt proved that this signed count is bounded below by 0, and they conjectured that the signed count is bounded above by 8. We prove this conjecture using real algebraic geometry, plane geometry, and some properties of convex sets.
