description: We study mixtures of decomposable graphical models, focusing on their ideals and dimensions. For mixtures of clique stars, we characterize the ideals in terms of ideals of mixtures of independence models. We also give a recursive formula for their ML degrees. Finally, we prove that second secant varieties of all other decomposable graphical models have the expected dimension.

description: Ovipennis kitchingi Volynkin, S. -Y. Huang & Černý, sp. n.
(Figs 9, 22)
Type material. Holotype (Figs 9, 22): male, “N. Thailand: 1000m | Fang, km 9 on Doi Pa | Hom Pok rd, Doi Poo | Meun, 25.x.1991 ” / “ I.J. Kitching | & A.M. Cotton | BM 1992-9 ” / QR-code label with unique ID: “ NHMUK010292448 ”, gen. prep. Volynkin (NHMUK).
Paratype. THAILAND: male, Lampang Prov., Chae Son NP, 1496m, 18°51'23''N 99°22'E, 1. VI.2005, K. Černý leg., gen. prep. No.: AV2572 (CKC).
Diagnosis. The forewing length is 6.5–7.0 mm in males. The male of O. kitchingi sp. n. is largely reminiscent of O. takia sp. n. but distinguished by the narrower, dash-like basal ochreous orange basal patch stretching along the costal margin whereas it is broadly triangular occupying the subbasal part of the anal margin in the congener. The male genital capsule of O. kitchingi sp. n. differs from that of O. takia sp. n. in the apically broader uncus, the medially somewhat broader valva having a slightly narrower sacculus, and the considerably narrower distal saccular process possessing shorter projections, where the ventral one is markedly shorter than the dorsal, whereas in O. takia sp. n., the ventral process is more or less equal in length to the dorsal one. The phalli of the two species are alike. The vesica structure of O. kitchingi sp. n. is very similar to O. takia sp. n. but the distal diverticulum of the former species bears a cluster of somewhat longer and markedly thicker spiniform cornuti compared to its congener.
The female is unknown.
Distribution. Northern Thailand (Chiang Mai (Fang District) and Lampang Provinces).
Etymology. The new species is named after Dr Ian James Kitching (NHMUK, London), a distinguished expert of Sphingidae taxonomy, one of the collectors of the holotype.

clara species group
Brueelia clara new species
Brueelia rigbyi new species
Brueelia tkachi new species Brueelia coryliventer new species
These four species share the following characters with Brueelia brachythorax: dorsal preantennal suture absent; marginal carina complete, but displaced posteriorly and dorsally at osculum; as3 absent; pns absent; mts2 short; both sexes without tps on tergites II–VII; psps absent on female tergites II–V; female subgenital plate with crosspiece; tergite XI in female not fused with IX+X; male mesosome with large lateral lobes and distal ornamentation (rugose area, fringes, papillation, etc.); parameres with blunt proximal ends that do not extend medianly to overlap with proximal mesosome.
All four species described here have the following characters in common which differ from B. brachythorax: pos set on ocular lens; ss present on female tergite VIII; mesosome of the male genitalia with a sinuous distal thickening. This thickening has a lateral fold (lf) and a median fold (mf) (Fig. 9), with a densely rugose area in between. These unique characters unify these four species and warrant their treatment as a distinct species group within Brueelia sensu stricto.

description: The ground state of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in a two-dimensional anharmonic--anisotropic potential is analyzed numerically at the limit of an infinite number of particles. We find that the density breaks up along the $x$ direction in position space and along the $p_y$ direction in momentum space together with the acquisition of angular momentum. Side by side, the anisotropies of the many-particle position variances along the $x$ and $y$ directions and of the many-particle momentum variances along the $p_y$ and $p_x$ directions become opposite when computed at the many-body and mean-field levels of theory. All in all, the rotating bosons are found to possess unique correlations at the limit of an infinite number of particles, both in position and momentum spaces, although their many-body and mean-field energies per particle and densities per particle coincide and the condensate fraction is 100\%. Implications are briefly discussed.

Lysmata durbanensis

description: Lysmata durbanensis is a valid species
Although data were limited, our analysis of the three syntypes of L. durbanensis suggested it is not a junior synonym of L. vittata, thus we formally resurrect it to full species status. While L. durbanensis shared some morphological traits with L. vittata, including a uniramous dorsal antennule, wide gap in the major chelae, and stylocerite exceeding the antennular peduncle (Aguilar et al. 2022; present study), some divergences were noted in other important characters.
In our examinations, of the three syntypes two individuals possessed a long and slender rostrum, slightly exceeding the antennular peduncle, with dorsal and ventral teeth set very close to the tip, which was not seen in any of the L. vittata examined in the present study. In the other individual, the rostrum was very short, not exceeding the first article of the antennular peduncle, but it appeared this may have been due to a mechanical deformity. We confirm the number of ventral spines in the dactyls of pereopods 3–5 as ranging from three to four, which is less than reported for L. vittata (5–6). Also, shrimps collected in South Africa tended to have higher number of spiniform setae on the propodus of pereopods 3–5 and more variable rostral teeth counts. Additionally, the disparate location of South Africa in relation to the assumed native range of L. vittata (temperate/subtropical northwestern Indo-Pacific, see below) is also suggestive that South African populations represent a different entity, though environmental conditions in the region are likely favorable to introductions of L. vittata and L. rauli.
There appears to be scarce data for and scant collections of L. durbanensis. Nevertheless, genetic examination of L. durbanensis from across southern mainland Africa and outlying islands is required to resolve the phylogenetic relationship and distribution range of this species in the context of the L. vittata complex.

description: We study the expressivity and learning process for polynomial neural networks (PNNs) with monomial activation functions. The weights of the network parametrize the neuromanifold. In this paper, we study certain neuromanifolds using tools from algebraic geometry: we give explicit descriptions as semialgebraic sets and characterize their Zariski closures, called neurovarieties. We study their dimension and associate an algebraic degree, the learning degree, to the neurovariety. The dimension serves as a geometric measure for the expressivity of the network, the learning degree is a measure for the complexity of training the network and provides upper bounds on the number of learnable functions. These theoretical results are accompanied with experiments.

description: The Ovipennis binghami species-group
Diagnosis. Species of this species-group are characterised by the limited sexual dimorphism. In the male genitalia, the species-group differs from the O. bicolora species-group in the slender, laterally flattened and apically pointed uncus (it is dorso-ventrally flattened and distally dilated in the O. bicolora species-group), the dentate distal section of the costa, the ventrally directed medial costal process, the unilobate and dorsally directed distal saccular process (it is bilobate and distally directed in the O. bicolora species-group), and the broader, sack-like phallus vesica bearing a single massive terminal cornutus (the O. bicolora species-group has patches of spiniform cornuti). In the female genitalia, the O. binghami species-group is characterized by the corpus bursae bearing a latero-posterior sclerotised pocket.

(Figs 12, 30)
Ovipennis binghami Hampson, 1903: 349; Volynkin et al. 2019: 72.
Type material examined. Holotype (by monotypy) (Figs 12, 30): female, handwritten and printed label “ Byingyi | Upper Burma | 2000–3000 ft | Oct 1900 | Col. Bingham | 1901–507.” / handwritten label “ Ovipennis binghami type ♀. Hmpsn ” / red ring “ Type ” label / QR-code label with unique ID: “ NHMUK010598105 ” (NHMUK).
Diagnosis. The forewing length is 9.0 mm in the female holotype. Ovipennis binghami is most reminiscent of O. thomasi by sharing the broad blackish area of the hindwing, but can be distinguished from the latter by the slightly broader forewing and the smaller dark diffused subapical patch of the forewing. In female genitalia, the ductus bursae of O. binghami is somewhat longer and narrower, the corpus bursae is narrower with a shorter posterior sclerotised area, and the lateral sclerotised pocket of the corpus bursae is shorter and broader than the corresponding structures of O. thomasi. The male is unknown.
Remarks. This species is only known from its holotype. The records of O. binghami from western and southwestern China and Thailand in fact refer to the females of O. bicolora Fang, 1986 and O. regina sp. n., respectively.
Distribution. Central Myanmar (Mandalay Region).

description: We report simulation studies of six low-energy electron-antineutrino detector designs, with the goal of determining their ability to resolve the direction to an antineutrino source. Such detectors with target masses on the one-ton scale are well-suited to reactor monitoring at distances of 5--25 meters from the core. They can provide accurate measurements of reactor operating power, fuel mix, and burnup, as well as unsurpassed nuclear non-proliferation information in a non-contact cooperating reactor scenario such as those used by IAEA. A number of groups around the world are working on programs to develop detectors similar to some of those in this study. Here, we examine and compare several approaches to detector geometry for their ability not only to detect the inverse beta decay (IBD) reaction, but also to determine the source direction of incident antineutrinos. The information from these detectors provides insight into reactor power and burning profile, which is especially useful in constraining the clandestine production of weapons material. In a live deployment, a non-proliferation detector must be able to isolate the subject reactor, possibly from a field of much-larger power reactors; directional sensitivity can help greatly with this task. We also discuss implications for using such detectors in longer-distance observation of reactors, from a few km to hundreds of km. We have modeled six abstracted detector designs, including two for which we have operational data for validating our computer modeling and analytical processes. We have found that the most promising options, regardless of scale and range, have angular resolutions on the order of a few degrees, which is better than any yet achieved in practice by a factor of at least two.

Type genus. Janira Leach, 1814.
Remarks. A diagnosis for the Janiridae sensu lato is not provided owing to the non-monophyly of the family (Wilson & Wägele, 1994). The genera Carpias, Ianiropsis, Janaira, Janira, Janiralata and Iathrippa represent the basal janirids (Wilson, 1994), which are characterised by relatively unmodified uropods and antennulae. In this paper, we deal with species belonging to the genera Carpias, Ianiropsis and Janaira: their diagnostic features and the geographic distribution are discussed. In the review of the family, Wilson and Wägele (1994) presented detailed diagnoses, written in parallel style for the recognised genera of Janiridae. The following generic diagnoses include characters that primarily distinguish the three genera treated here, and may not include those characters common to most Janiridae.

Ovipennis thomasi Černý in Černý & Pinratana, 2009: 101, fig. 201; Volynkin et al. 2019: 72; S.-Y. Huang 2021; misidentification (O. hanae sp. n.).
Type material examined. Holotype (Figs 13, 31): female, printed label “N. THAILAND | Chiang Mai, Fang, Doi Ang Khang, 1425m, 29°54′11″ N, 99°2′32″ E, 11.–15.IX.2007, leg. T. Ihle |” / printed label “Genitalpräparat Heterocera Nr. 33.813 Museum WITT München” / red printed label “ HOLOTYPE Ovipennis thomasi Karel ČERNÝ, 2009 ” (MWM / ZSM). Paratypes: 2 females, same data as holotype / PARATYPE Ovipennis thomasi Karel ČERNÝ, 2009 (CKC).
Additional material examined. THAILAND: 1 male, Lampang, Chae Son NP, 1496m, 18°51.080′N 99°26.016′E, 10. V.2008, K. Černý leg., gen. prep. No.: AV7300 (CKC); 2 females, Lampang, Chae Son NP, 1496m, 18°51′23″N 99°22′E, 1. VI.2005, K. Černý leg., gen. prep. No.: AV7301 (CKC); 1 male, Mt. Doi Phahompok, 14 km NW Fang, 1700m, 16.X.2000, local collector leg. (CKC); 1 male, Changwat Nan, 30 km E of Pua, 1700m, 22–23.IX.1999, A. Szabó & Z. Czere leg., gen. prep. No.: MWM 31.744 (MWM / ZSM).
Remarks. (1) In the original description (Černý & Pinratana 2009), a male and a female specimen with the same label data as in the holotype were cited as paratypes. However, the sex of one of them was erroneously determined by the authors and both specimens are in fact females. (2) The book by Černý & Pinratana (2009) is supplemented with a CD containing a PDF file of an updated version of the original book layout. In this file, an additional male specimen from Lampang Province was added to the type series of O. thomasi. However, only the specimens listed in the original hard copy of the book can be considered as secondary types and the aforementioned specimen is to be treated as a non-type additional specimen examined.
Diagnosis. The forewing length is 8.0–9.0 mm in males and 7.4–9.0 mm in females. Sexual dimorphism is limited: the male has a pale ochreous hindwing with a diffuse dark grey terminal fascia stretching from the apex to the anal angle, whereas the female hindwing is blackish with ochreous basal area and anal margin. The species is superficially similar to O. binghami, the detailed comparison between the two taxa is provided above in the diagnosis of the latter species.
Distribution. Northern Thailand (Chiang Mai, Lampang, and Nan Provinces).

Observability of cyclotron resonance in the hydrodynamic regime of bilayer graphene

description: We offer theoretical predictions for the frequency of the resonant frequency of transport for the hydrodynamic description of bilayer graphene, as well as provide quantification for the relative strength of this signal throughout phase space. Our calculations are based on classical fluid dynamics equations derived from the Boltzmann equation for bilayer graphene in arXiv:1901.07039, and suggest that while this resonance is accessible to current experimental techniques, the same mechanism which causes the hydrodynamic resonance to differ from the Fermi liquid value is responsible for a significant broadening of the peak.

Ovipennis sapa

description: Ovipennis sapa Volynkin, S. -Y. Huang, Černý & Saldaitis, sp. n.
(Figs 15, 32)
Type material. Holotype (Figs 15, 32): female, printed label “N-VIETNAM | Mt. Fan-si-pan | Cha-pa, 1700m | (22.15° N, 103.46° E) [22°15 ' N 103°46 ' E] | 08.–29. V. 1993, leg. Sinjaev [recte: Sinyaev] & Simonov | Museum Witt” / printed label “Slide | ZSM Arct. | 27/2017 ♀ | A. Volynkin ” (MWM / ZSM).
Diagnosis. The forewing length is 9.0 mm in the female holotype. The female of O. sapa sp. n. differs clearly from the females of the two other species in the species-group by the reduced blackish suffusion of the hindwing represented by a small diffuse patch at the apex. In the female genitalia, the new species is distinguished from O. binghami and O. thomasi by the triangular and smooth lobes of the antevaginal plate (they are rounded and rugose in the congeners), the dorsal sclerotisation of the ductus bursae protruding into the postvaginal area, the broader, anteriorly more heavily sclerotized ductus bursae, the markedly longer postero-lateral sclerotised pocket of the corpus bursae, and the somewhat broader anterior section of the corpus bursae lacking the signum.
The male is unknown.
Distribution. Northern Vietnam (Lào Cai Province).
Etymology. The specific epithet is homonymic of the town of Sa Pa (= Chapa or Cha-pa) located near the type locality of the new species. The name is a noun in the nominative singular in apposition.
