description: Graph embedding techniques have been increasingly deployed in a multitude of different applications that involve learning on non-Euclidean data. However, existing graph embedding models either fail to incorporate node attribute information during training or suffer from node attribute noise, which compromises the accuracy. Moreover, very few of them scale to large graphs due to their high computational complexity and memory usage. In this paper we propose GraphZoom, a multi-level framework for improving both accuracy and scalability of unsupervised graph embedding algorithms. GraphZoom first performs graph fusion to generate a new graph that effectively encodes the topology of the original graph and the node attribute information. This fused graph is then repeatedly coarsened into much smaller graphs by merging nodes with high spectral similarities. GraphZoom allows any existing embedding methods to be applied to the coarsened graph, before it progressively refine the embeddings obtained at the coarsest level to increasingly finer graphs. We have evaluated our approach on a number of popular graph datasets for both transductive and inductive tasks. Our experiments show that GraphZoom can substantially increase the classification accuracy and significantly accelerate the entire graph embedding process by up to 40.8x, when compared to the state-of-the-art unsupervised embedding methods.

description: The performance and the decoding complexity of a novel coding scheme based on the concatenation of maximum distance separable (MDS) codes and linear random fountain codes are investigated. Differently from Raptor codes (which are based on a serial concatenation of a high-rate outer block code and an inner Luby-transform code), the proposed coding scheme can be seen as a parallel concatenation of a MDS code and a linear random fountain code, both operating on the same finite field. Upper and lower bounds on the decoding failure probability under maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding are developed. It is shown how, for example, the concatenation of a $(15,10)$ Reed-Solomon (RS) code and a linear random fountain code over a finite field of order $16$, $\mathbb {F}_{16}$, brings to a decoding failure probability $4$ orders of magnitude lower than the one of a linear random fountain code for the same receiver overhead in a channel with a erasure probability of $ε=5\cdot10^{-2}$. It is illustrated how the performance of the novel scheme approaches that of an idealized fountain code for higher-order fields and moderate erasure probabilities. An efficient decoding algorithm is developed for the case of a (generalized) RS code.

description: We elaborate on the consequences of the factorization of the transfer matrix of any lossless multilayer in terms of three basic matrices of simple interpretation. By considering the bilinear transformation that this transfer matrix induces in the complex plane, we introduce the concept of multilayer transfer function and study its properties in the unit disk. In this geometrical setting, our factorization translates into three actions that can be viewed as the basic pieces for understanding the multilayer behavior. Additionally, we introduce a simple trace criterion that allows us to classify multilayers in three types with properties closely related to one (and only one) of these three basic matrices. We apply this approach to analyze some practical examples that are representative of these types of matrices.

description: Application of strong dc electric field to an insulator leads to quantum tunneling of electrons from the valence band to the conduction band, which is a famous nonlinear response known as Landau-Zener tunneling. One of the growing interests in recent studies of nonlinear responses is nonreciprocal phenomena where transport toward the left and the right differs. Here, we theoretically study Landau-Zener tunneling in noncentrosymmetric systems, i.e., the crystals without spatial inversion symmetry. A generalized Landau-Zener formula is derived taking into account the geometric nature of the wavefunctions. The obtained formula shows that nonreciprocal tunneling probability originates from the difference in the Berry connections of the Bloch wavefunctions across the band gap, i.e., shift vector. We also discuss application of our formula to tunneling in a one-dimensional model of a ferroelectrics.

description: The problem of a diffusing particle moving among diffusing traps is analyzed in general space dimension d. We consider the case where the traps are initially randomly distributed in space, with uniform density rho, and derive upper and lower bounds for the probability Q(t) (averaged over all particle and trap trajectories) that the particle survives up to time t. We show that, for 1<=d<2, the bounds converge asymptotically to give $Q(t) \sim exp(-λ_d t^{d/2})$ where $λ_d = (2/πd) sin(πd/2) (4πD)^{d/2} ρ$ and D is the diffusion constant of the traps, and that $Q(t) \sim exp(- 4πρD t/ln t)$ for d=2. For d>2 bounds can still be derived, but they no longer converge for large t. For 1<=d<=2, these asymptotic form are independent of the diffusion constant of the particle. The results are compared with simulation results obtained using a new algorithm [V. Mehra and P. Grassberger, Phys. Rev. E v65 050101 (2002)] which is described in detail. Deviations from the predicted asymptotic forms are found to be large even for very small values of Q(t), indicating slowly decaying corrections whose form is consistent with the bounds. We also present results in d=1 for the case where the trap densities on either side of the particle are different. For this case we can still obtain exact bounds but they no longer converge.

description: Understanding radial migration is a crucial point to build relevant chemical and dynamical evolution models of the Milky Way disk. In this paper, we analyze a high-resolution N-body simulation of a Milky Way-type galaxy to study the role that the slowing down of a stellar bar has is generating migration from the inner to the outer disk. Stellar particles are trapped by the main resonances (corotation and Outer Lindblad resonance) which then propagate outwards across the disk due to the bar slowing down. Once the bar strength reaches its maximal amplitude, some of the stars, delivered to the outer disk, escape the resonances and some of them settle on nearly circular orbits. The number of the escaped stars gradually increases also due to the decrease of the bar strength when the boxy/peanut bulge forms. We show that this mechanism is not limited only to stars on nearly circular orbits: also stars initially on more eccentric orbits can be transferred outwards (out to the OLR location) and can end up on nearly circular orbits. Therefore, the propagation of the bar resonances outwards can induce the circularization of the orbits of some of the migrating stars. The mechanism investigated in this paper can explain the presence of metal-rich stars at the solar vicinity and more generally in the outer galactic disk. Our dynamical model predicts that up to 3% of stars in between of corotation and the OLR can be formed in the innermost region of the Milky Way. The epoch of the Milky Way bar formation can be potentially constrained by analyzing the age distribution of the most metal-rich stars at the solar vicinity.

description: We present a relativistic three-body equation to study correlations in a medium of finite temperatures and densities. This equation is derived within a systematic Dyson equation approach and includes the dominant medium effects due to Pauli blocking and self energy corrections. Relativity is implemented utilizing the light front form. The equation is solved for a zero-range force for parameters close to the confinement-deconfinement transition of QCD. We present correlations between two- and three-particle binding energies and calculate the three-body Mott transition.

description: Recently it has been suggested that an increase in the fine structure constant alpha with time would decrease the entropy of a Reissner-Nordstrom black hole, thereby violating the second law of thermodynamics. In this note we point out that, at least for a certain class of charged dilaton black holes related to string theory, the entropy does not change under adiabatic variations of alpha and one might expect it to increase for non-adiabatic changes.

$b \bar b$ Kinematic Correlations in Cold Nuclear Matter
Creators: name: Vogt, R.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Background: The LHCb Collaboration has studied a number of kinematic correlations between $B$-hadron pairs through their subsequent decays to $J/ψ$ pairs at 7 and 8 TeV for four minimum values of the $J/ψ$ $p_T$. Purpose: In this work, these measurements are compared to calculations of $b \bar b$ pairs and their hadronization and inclusive decays to $J/ψJ/ψ$ are compared to the same observables. Potential cold matter effects on the $b \bar b$ pair observables are discussed to determine which are most likely to provide insights about the system and why. Methods: The calculations, employing the exclusive HVQMNR code, assume the same intrinsic $k_T$-broadening and fragmentation as in [R. Vogt, Phys. Rev. C {\bf 98} (2018) 034907]. The pair distributions presented by LHCb are calculated in this approach, both for the parent $b \bar b$ and the $J/ψJ/ψ$ pairs produced in their decay. The sensitivity of the results to the intrinsic $k_T$ broadening is shown. The theoretical uncertainties due to the $b$ quark mass and scale variations on both the initial $b \bar b$ pairs and the resulting $J/ψ$ pairs are also shown. Possible effects due to the presence of the nucleus are studied by increasing the size of the $k_T$ broadening and modification of the fragmentation parameter. Results: Good agreement with the LHCb data is found for all observables. The parent $b \bar b$ distributions are more sensitive to the $k_T$ broadening than are the final-state $J/ψ$ pairs. Conclusions: Next-to-leading order calculations with $k_T$ broadening, as in [R. Vogt, Phys. Rev. C {\bf 98} (2018) 034907], can describe all correlated observables. Multiple measurements of correlated observables are sensitive to different nuclear effects which can help distinguish between them.

description: The capability to design spectrally controlled photon emission is not only fundamentally interesting for understanding frequency-encoded light-matter interactions, but also is essential for realizing the preparation and manipulation of quantum states. Here we consider a dynamically modulated qubit array, and realize frequency-controlled single-photon emission focusing on the generation of a frequency comb constituted solely of even-parity or anti-Stokes sidebands. Our system also offers parity-dependent bunching and antibunching in frequency-filtered quantum correlations. In particular, the waveguide quantum electrodynamics (QED) setup is extended to include chiral and non-local coupling architectures, thereby enhancing its versatility in Floquet engineering. Our proposal also supports the predictable generation of high-dimensional entangled quantum states, where the corresponding effective Hilbert space dimension is well controlled by energy modulation. Moreover, the utilisation of sophisticated numerical tools, such as the matrix product states (MPSs) and the discretization approach, enables the efficient simulation of multi-photon dynamics, in which the non-Markovian Floquet steady states emerge. This work fundamentally broadens the fields of collective emission, and has wide applications in implementing frequency-encoded quantum information processing and many-body quantum simulation.

description: With the growth of renewable generation (RG) and the development of associated ride through curves serving as operating limits, during disturbances, on violation of these limits, the power system is at risk of losing large amounts of generation. In order to identify preventive control measures that avoid such scenarios from manifesting, the power system must be modeled as a constrained dynamical system. For such systems, the interplay of feasibility region (man-made limits) and stability region (natural dynamical system response) results in a positively invariant region in state space known as the constrained stability region (CSR). After the occurrence of a disturbance, as it is desirable for the system trajectory to lie within the CSR, critical clearing time (CCT) must be defined with respect to the CSR instead of the stability region as is done traditionally. The sensitivity of CCT to system parameters of constrained systems then becomes beneficial for planning/revising protection settings (which impact feasible region) and/or operation (which impact dynamics). In this paper, we derive the first order CCT sensitivity of generic constrained power systems using the efficient power system trajectory sensitivity computation, pioneered by Hiskens in [1]. The results are illustrated for a single-machine infinite-bus (SMIB) system as well as a multi-machine system in order to gain meaningful insight into the dependence between ability to meet constraints, system stability, and changes occurring in power system parameters, such as, mechanical power input and inertia.

description: Disorder scattering plays important roles in quantum transport as well as various Hall effects, including the second-order nonlinear Hall effect induced by Berry curvature dipole. Calculation of disorder-averaged transport properties usually requires substantial computational resources, especially for higher-order effects. Existing methods are either limited by approximation conditions or constrained by numerical stability, making it difficult to conveniently obtain average physical quantities over a wide range of disorder strength. In this work, we develop a general method for noninteracting system to obtain analytical expressions of disorder averages in finite orders of disorder strength. This method utilizes the Dyson equation to expand physical quantities expressed in terms of the Green's functions into series of disorder-averaged matrices, and the only approximation involved is the truncation of the Dyson equation. Therefore, this method not only avoids the brute force calculation of disorder samples, but also widely applies to different model systems, types of disorder, and the number of Green's functions in the expressions. We demonstrate the applicability of this general method by calculating averages of the linear conductance of a two-terminal system, the spin Hall conductance and the second-order nonlinear conductance of four-terminal Hall setups. It is found that truncation at the fourth order of disorder strength provides a reasonable accuracy and a convenient Padé treatment effectively extends its applicable range. Numerical results also confirms disorder enhancement of the second-order nonlinear Hall current in four-terminal systems. Moreover, more accurate predictions for a broader range of disorder strength can be achieved by including higher-order terms in a similar manner.

description: The Nucleon- and the Lambda-excitation spectrum exhibit parity doublets, i.e. states of the same spin but with opposite parity being almost degenerate in mass. It is shown that in a relativistic quark model with instantaneous interaction kernels, where confinement is implemented by a linearly rising potential and the major mass splittings are generated from an interaction based on instanton effects, this degeneracy occurs quite naturally: Once the parameters of the instanton induced interaction are fixed to reproduce the ground state octet-decuplet splittings, some states are selectively lowered to a position which is degenerate with states of opposite parity. Some observable consequences are briefly discussed.

description: Elizabethkingia anophelis is an emerging human pathogen causing neonatal meningitis, catheter-associated infections and nosocomial outbreaks with high mortality rates. Besides, they are resistant to most antibiotics used in empirical therapy. In this study, therefore, we used immunoinformatic approaches to design a prophylactic peptide vaccine against E. anophelis as an alternative preventive measure. Initially, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL), helper T-lymphocyte (HTL), and linear B-lymphocyte (LBL) epitopes were predicted from the highest antigenic protein. The CTL and HTL epitopes together had a population coverage of 99.97% around the world. Eventually, six CTL, seven HTL, and two LBL epitopes were selected and used to construct a multi-epitope vaccine. The vaccine protein was found to be highly immunogenic, non-allergenic, and non-toxic. Codon adaptation and in silico cloning were performed to ensure better expression within E. coli K12 host system. The stability of the vaccine structure was also improved by disulphide bridging. In addition, molecular docking and dynamics simulation revealed strong and stable binding affinity between the vaccine and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) molecule. The immune simulation showed higher levels of T-cell and B-cell activities which was in coherence with actual immune response. Repeated exposure simulation resulted in higher clonal selection and faster antigen clearance. Nevertheless, experimental validation is required to ensure the immunogenic potency and safety of this vaccine to control E. anophelis infection in the future. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: This paper presents numerical cross-comparisons and benchmark results for two different kinetic numerical methods, capable of describing relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics in a wide range of kinematic regimes, typical of relevant physics applications, such as transport phenomena in quark-gluon plasmas. We refer to relativistic lattice Boltzmann versus Montecarlo Test-Particle methods. Lacking any realistic option for accurate validation vis-a-vis experimental data, we check the consistency of our results against established simulation packages available in the literature. We successfully cross-compare the results of the two aforementioned numerical approaches for momentum integrated quantities like the hydrostatic and dynamical pressure profiles, the collective flow and the heat flux. These results corroborate the confidence on the robustness and correctness of these computational methods and on the accurate calibration of their numerical parameters with respect to the physical transport coefficients. Our numerical results are made available as supplemental material, with the aim of establishing a reference benchmark for other numerical approaches.

description: We study the percolation of a quantum particle on quasicrystal lattices and compare it with the square lattice. For our study, we have considered quasicrystal lattices modelled on the pentagonally symmetric Penrose tiling and the octagonally symmetric Ammann-Beenker tiling. The dynamics of the quantum particle is modelled using continuous-time quantum walk (CTQW) formalism. We present a comparison of the behaviour of the CTQW on the two aperiodic quasicrystal lattices and the square lattice when all the vertices are connected and when disorder is introduced in the form of disconnections between the vertices. Unlike on a square lattice, we see a significant fraction of quantum state localised around the origin in quasicrystal lattice. With increase in disorder, the percolation probability of a particle on a quasicrystal lattice decreases significantly faster when compared to the square lattice. This study sheds light on the minimum fraction of disconnections allowed to see percolation of quantum particle on these quasicrystal lattices.

description: Modern graph or network datasets often contain rich structure that goes beyond simple pairwise connections between nodes. This calls for complex representations that can capture, for instance, edges of different types as well as so-called "higher-order interactions" that involve more than two nodes at a time. However, we have fewer rigorous methods that can provide insight from such representations. Here, we develop a computational framework for the problem of clustering hypergraphs with categorical edge labels --- or different interaction types --- where clusters corresponds to groups of nodes that frequently participate in the same type of interaction. Our methodology is based on a combinatorial objective function that is related to correlation clustering on graphs but enables the design of much more efficient algorithms that also seamlessly generalize to hypergraphs. When there are only two label types, our objective can be optimized in polynomial time, using an algorithm based on minimum cuts. Minimizing our objective becomes NP-hard with more than two label types, but we develop fast approximation algorithms based on linear programming relaxations that have theoretical cluster quality guarantees. We demonstrate the efficacy of our algorithms and the scope of the model through problems in edge-label community detection, clustering with temporal data, and exploratory data analysis.

description: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is characterised by elevated serum levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and a substantial risk for cardiovascular disease. The autosomal-dominant FH is mostly caused by mutations in LDLR (low density lipoprotein receptor), APOB (apolipoprotein B), and PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin). Recently, STAP1 has been suggested as a fourth causative gene. We analyzed STAP1 in 75 hypercholesterolemic patients from Berlin, Germany, who are negative for mutations in canonical FH genes. In 10 patients with negative family history, we additionally screened for disease causing variants in LDLRAP1 (low density lipoprotein receptor adaptor protein 1), associated with autosomal-recessive hypercholesterolemia. We identified one STAP1 variant predicted to be disease causing. To evaluate association of serum lipid levels and STAP1 carrier status, we analyzed 20 individuals from a population based cohort, the Cooperative Health Research in South Tyrol (CHRIS) study, carrying rare STAP1 variants. Out of the same cohort we randomly selected 100 non-carriers as control. In the Berlin FH cohort STAP1 variants were rare. In the CHRIS cohort, we obtained no statistically significant differences between carriers and non-carriers of STAP1 variants with respect to lipid traits. Until such an association has been verified in more individuals with genetic variants in STAP1, we cannot estimate whether STAP1 generally is a causative gene for FH.

description: Team closeness provides the foundations of trust and communication, contributing to teams' success and viability. However, newcomers often struggle to be included in a team since incumbents tend to interact more with other existing members. Previous research suggests that online communication technologies can help team inclusion by mitigating members' perceived differences. In this study, we test how virtual reality (VR) can promote team closeness when forming teams. We conducted a between-subject experiment with teams working in-person and VR, where two members interacted first, and then a third member was added later to conduct a hidden-profile task. Participants evaluated how close they felt with their teammates after the task was completed. Our results show that VR newcomers felt closer to the incumbents than in-person newcomers. However, incumbents' closeness to newcomers did not vary across conditions. We discuss the implications of these findings and offer suggestions for how VR can promote inclusion.

description: It has been proposed that translationally-invariant black branes are classically stable if and only if they are locally thermodynamically stable. Reall has outlined a general argument to demonstrate this, and studied in detail the case of charged black p-branes in type II supergravity. We consider the application of his argument in the simplest non-trivial case, an uncharged asymptotically flat brane enclosed in a finite cylindrical cavity. In this simple context, it is possible to give a more complete argument than in the cases considered earlier, and it is therefore a particularly attractive example of the general approach.

description: Introduction:To understand the puberty-related sex shift in the prevalence of asthma and rhinitis as single entities and as respiratory multimorbidities, we investigated if there is also a sex-specific and puberty-related pattern of their incidences. Methods: We used harmonised questionnaire data from 18451 participants in five prospective observational European birth cohorts within the collaborative MeDALL (Mechanisms of the Development of Allergy) project. Outcome definitions for IgE-associated and non-IgE-associated asthma, rhinitis and respiratory multimorbidity (first occurrence of coexisting asthma and rhinitis) were based on questionnaires and the presence of specific antibodies (IgE) against common allergens in serum. For each outcome, we used proportional hazard models with sex–puberty interaction terms and conducted a one-stage individual participant data meta-analysis. Results: Girls had a lower risk of incident asthma (adjusted HR 0.67, 95%CI 0.61 to 0.74), rhinitis (0.73, 0.69 to 0.78) and respiratory multimorbidity (0.58, 0.51 to 0.66) before puberty compared with boys. After puberty onset, these incidences became more balanced across the sexes (asthma 0.84, 0.64 to 1.10; rhinitis 0.90, 0.80 to 1.02; respiratory multimorbidity 0.84, 0.63 to 1.13). The incidence sex shift was slightly more distinct for non-IgE-associated respiratory diseases (asthma 0.74, 0.63 to 0.87 before vs 1.23, 0.75 to 2.00 after puberty onset; rhinitis 0.88, 0.79 to 0.98 vs 1.20, 0.98 to 1.47; respiratory multimorbidity 0.66, 0.49 to 0.88 vs 0.96, 0.54 to 1.71) than for IgE-associated respiratory diseases.DiscussionWe found an incidence ‘sex shift’ in chronic respiratory diseases from a male predominance before puberty to a more sex-balanced incidence after puberty onset, which may partly explain the previously reported sex shift in prevalence. These differences need to be considered in public health to enable effective diagnoses and timely treatment in adolescent girlsexplain the previously reported sex shift in prevalence.

Search for bottom-squark pair production with the ATLAS detector in final states containing Higgs bosons, $b$-jets and missing transverse momentum

description: The result of a search for the pair production of the lightest supersymmetric partner of the bottom quark ($\tilde{b}_{1}$) using 139 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton data collected at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV by the ATLAS detector is reported. In the supersymmetric scenarios considered both of the bottom-squarks decay into a $b$-quark and the second-lightest neutralino, $\tilde{b}_{1} \rightarrow b + \tildeχ^{0}_{2}$. Each $\tildeχ^{0}_{2}$ is assumed to subsequently decay with 100% branching ratio into a Higgs boson ($h$) like the one in the Standard Model and the lightest neutralino: $\tildeχ^{0}_{2} \rightarrow h + \tildeχ^{0}_{1}$. The $\tildeχ^{0}_{1}$ is assumed to be the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) and is stable. Two signal mass configurations are targeted: the first has a constant LSP mass of 60 GeV; and the second has a constant mass difference between the $\tildeχ^{0}_{2}$ and $\tildeχ^{0}_{1}$ of 130 GeV. The final states considered contain no charged leptons, three or more $b$-jets, and large missing transverse momentum. No significant excess of events over the Standard Model background expectation is observed in any of the signal regions considered. Limits at the 95% confidence level are placed in the supersymmetric models considered, and bottom-squarks with mass up to 1.5 TeV are excluded.

description: We study theoretical aspects of the rotating black hole production and evaporation in the extra dimension scenarios with TeV scale gravity, within the mass range in which the higher dimensional Kerr solution provides good description. We evaluate the production cross section of black holes taking their angular momenta into account. We find that it becomes larger than the Schwarzschild radius squared, which is conventionally utilized in literature, and our result nicely agrees with the recent numerical study by Yoshino and Nambu within a few percent error for higher dimensional case. In the same approximation to obtain the above result, we find that the production cross section becomes larger for the black hole with larger angular momentum. Second, we derive the generalized Teukolsky equation for spin 0, 1/2 and 1 brane fields in the higher dimensional Kerr geometry and explicitly show that it is separable in any dimensions. For five-dimensional (Randall-Sundrum) black hole, we obtain analytic formulae for the greybody factors in low frequency expansion and we present the power spectra of the Hawking radiation as well as their angular dependence. Phenomenological implications of our result are briefly sketched.
