Residual categories of quadric surface bundles
Creators: name: Xie, Fei
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Algebraic Geometry (math.AG)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We show that the residual categories of quadric surface bundles are equivalent to the (twisted) derived categories of some scheme under the following hypotheses. Case 1: The quadric surface bundle has a smooth section. Case 2: The total space of the quadric surface bundle is smooth and the base is a smooth surface. We provide two proofs in Case 1 describing the scheme as the hyperbolic reduction and as a subscheme of the relative Hilbert scheme of lines, respectively. In Case 2, the twisted scheme is obtained by performing birational transformations to the relative Hilbert scheme of lines. Finally, we apply the results to certain complete intersections of quadrics.

description: In this paper, we carried out a systematic investigation for the excited doubly heavy baryons production in $Z$-boson decays within the NRQCD factorization approach. Our investigation accounts for all the $P$-wave intermediate diquark states, {\it i.e.} $\langle cc\rangle[^1P_1]_{\bar 3}$, $\langle cc\rangle[^3P_J]_{6}$, $\langle bc\rangle[^1P_1]_{\bar 3/6}$, $\langle bc\rangle[^3P_J]_{\bar 3/6}$, $\langle bb\rangle[^1P_1]_{\bar 3}$, and $\langle bb\rangle[^3P_J]_{6}$ with $J = (0, 1, 2)$. The results show that contributions from all diquark states in $P$-wave were $7\%$, $8\%$, and $3\%$ in comparing with $S$-wave for the production of $Ξ_{cc}$, $Ξ_{bc}$ and $Ξ_{bb}$ via $Z$-boson decay, respectively. Based on these results, we predicted about $0.539\times 10^3(10^6)$ events for $Ξ_{cc}$, $1.827\times 10^3(10^6)$ events for $Ξ_{bc}$, and $0.036\times 10^3(10^6)$ events for $Ξ_{bb}$ can be produced annually at the LHC (CEPC). Additionally, we plot the differential decay widths of $Ξ_{cc}$, $Ξ_{bc}$ and $Ξ_{bb}$ as a function of the invariant mass $s_{23}$ and energy function $z$ distributions, and analyze the theoretical uncertainties in decay width arising from the mass parameters of heavy quark.

description: Predictability of undesired events is a question of great interest in many scientific disciplines including seismology, economy, and epidemiology. Here, we focus on the predictability of invasion of a broad class of epidemics caused by diseases that lead to permanent immunity of infected hosts after recovery or death. We approach the problem from the perspective of the science of complexity by proposing and testing several strategies for the estimation of important characteristics of epidemics, such as the probability of invasion. Our results suggest that parsimonious approximate methodologies may lead to the most reliable and robust predictions. The proposed methodologies are first applied to analysis of experimentally observed epidemics: invasion of the fungal plant pathogen \emph{Rhizoctonia solani} in replicated host microcosms. We then consider numerical experiments of the SIR (susceptible-infected-removed) model to investigate the performance of the proposed methods in further detail. The suggested framework can be used as a valuable tool for quick assessment of epidemic threat at the stage when epidemics only start developing. Moreover, our work amplifies the significance of the small-scale and finite-time microcosm realizations of epidemics revealing their predictive power.

description: Dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) are a powerful concept of probing far-from-equilibrium criticality in quantum many-body systems. With the strong ongoing experimental drive to quantum-simulate lattice gauge theories, it becomes important to investigate DQPTs in these models in order to better understand their far-from-equilibrium properties. In this work, we use infinite matrix product state techniques to study DQPTs in spin-$S$ $\mathrm{U}(1)$ quantum link models. Although we are able to reproduce literature results directly connecting DQPTs to a sign change in the dynamical order parameter in the case of $S=1/2$ for quenches starting in a vacuum initial state, we find that for different quench protocols or different values of the link spin length $S>1/2$ this direct connection is no longer present. In particular, we find that there is an abundance of different types of DQPTs not directly associated with any sign change of the order parameter. Our findings indicate that DQPTs are fundamentally different between the Wilson--Kogut--Susskind limit and its representation through the quantum link formalism.

description: In this study, we introduce an online public quantum computation platform, named as ScQ, based on a 1D array of a 10-qubit superconducting processor. Single-qubit rotation gates can be performed on each qubit. Controlled-NOT gates between nearest-neighbor sites on the 1D array of 10 qubits are available. We show the online preparation and verification of Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states of up to 10 qubits through this platform for all possible blocks of qubits in the chain. The graphical user interface and quantum assembly language methods are presented to achieve the above tasks, which rely on a parameter scanning feature implemented on ScQ. The performance of this quantum computation platform, such as fidelities of logic gates and details of the superconducting device, are presented.
T_c of disordered superconductors near the Anderson transition

description: According to the Anderson theorem, the critical temperature T_c of a disordered superconductor is determined by the average density of states and does not change at the localization threshold. This statement is valid under assumption of a self-averaging order parameter, which can be violated in the strong localization region. Stimulating by statements on the essential increase of T_c near the Anderson transition, we carried out the systematic investigation of possible violations of self-averaging. Strong deviations from the Anderson theorem are possible due to resonances at the quasi-discrete levels, resulting in localization of the order parameter at the atomic scale. This effect is determined by the properties of individual impurities and has no direct relation to the Anderson transition. In particular, we see no reasons to say on "fractal superconductivity" near the localization threshold.

description: Benchmarks are crucial to measuring and steering progress in artificial intelligence (AI). However, recent studies raised concerns over the state of AI benchmarking, reporting issues such as benchmark overfitting, benchmark saturation and increasing centralization of benchmark dataset creation. To facilitate monitoring of the health of the AI benchmarking ecosystem, we introduce methodologies for creating condensed maps of the global dynamics of benchmark creation and saturation. We curated data for 3765 benchmarks covering the entire domains of computer vision and natural language processing, and show that a large fraction of benchmarks quickly trended towards near-saturation, that many benchmarks fail to find widespread utilization, and that benchmark performance gains for different AI tasks were prone to unforeseen bursts. We analyze attributes associated with benchmark popularity, and conclude that future benchmarks should emphasize versatility, breadth and real-world utility.

description: Recently, De Martino et al have presented a general framework for the study of transportation phenomena on complex networks. One of their most significant achievements was a deeper understanding of the phase transition from the uncongested to the congested phase at a critical traffic load. In this paper, we also study phase transition in transportation networks using a discrete time random walk model. Our aim is to establish a direct connection between the structure of the graph and the value of the critical traffic load. Applying spectral graph theory, we show that the original results of De Martino et al showing that the critical loading depends only on the degree sequence of the graph -- suggesting that different graphs with the same degree sequence have the same critical loading if all other circumstances are fixed -- is valid only if the graph is dense enough. For sparse graphs, higher order corrections, related to the local structure of the network, appear.

DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF AN INNOVATIVE LOW-NOISE HIGH-DYNAMIC-RANGE VLSI CHARGE-SENSITIVE PREAMPLIFIER FOR SOLID-STATE DETECTORS EMPLOYED IN NUCLEAR PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS WITH RADIOACTIVE ION BEAMS

description: The latest experimental results of the multichannel front-end ASIC of TRACE are shown. The device submitted to the foundry in the middle of 2014 and received at the end of the same year has been installed on a dedicated PCB and tested using a pulser. We then designed and realized a preamplifier board with eight ASICs for a total of 32 front channels and one back channel. We connected it to a highly-segmented planar silicon detector and acquired the spectrum of a 241Am-244Cm-239Pu triple alpha source obtaining an overall resolution around 3.5?. The chip comprises four channels specifically designed for hole signals and one channel for electron signals. The power consumption is around 10 mW per channel as required by the specifications of TRACE. The main design goals are low noise and fast rise time. With proper shaping of the signals this device is capable of producing energy spectra with resolution of approximatively 1 keV. An innovative circuit architecture based on a Time-Over-Threshold technique boosts the dynamic range of the CSP by more than one order of magnitude. The rise time of the leading edge of the signals is fast enough to perform pulse-shape analysis of the waveforms. A peculiar feature of this device is the possibility to easily adjust a host of key parameters through an I2C bus. The bandwidth and sensitivity of the preamplifier can so be optimized according to the experimental needs on a case-by-case basis.

description: We develop a nonperturbative theory for hole dynamics in antiferromagnetic spin lattices, as described by the $t$-$J$ model. This is achieved by generalizing the selfconsistent Born approximation to nonequilibrium systems, making it possible to calculate the full time-dependent many-body wave function. Our approach reveals three distinct dynamical regimes, ultimately leading to the formation of magnetic polarons. Following the initial ballistic stage of the hole dynamics, coherent formation of string excitations gives rise to characteristic oscillations in the hole density. Their damping eventually leaves behind magnetic polarons that undergo ballistic motion with a greatly reduced velocity. The developed theory provides a rigorous framework for understanding nonequilibrium physics of defects in quantum magnets and quantitatively explains recent observations from cold-atom quantum simulations in the strong coupling regime.

We explore using the variational methods, the existence of solution for ${q} \in (1,2^*_s)$ and $\te \geq 1$. % and we also consider the case when $\te > 2^*_{μ,s}$ for $2< q < 2^*_{s}$. Here $2^*_s = \frac{2N}{N-2s}$ and $2^{*}_{μ,s} = \frac{2N-μ}{N-2s}$ is the critical exponent in the sense of Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality.

WILD RED DEER (CERVUS ELAPHUS, LINNAEUS, 1758) POPULATIONS STATUS ASSESSMENT: NOVEL METHODS USING HAIR
Creators: name: CASLINI, CHIARA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: The assessment of free-ranging wild red deer (Cervus elaphus) populations status is an important tool in wildlife management, because of, in some areas, this species reaches high densities, which can increase the occurrence of road accidents, of damages to agriculture and forest regeneration, and, not last, can reduce the fitness of the species itself. In fact, high density populations compared to low density ones usually show lower levels of fertility, higher prevalence of disease, higher mortality, worst general body conditions and nutritional status. Nevertheless, collecting samples to assess free-ranging populations status is often difficult. Hair is a safe, readily available, and easy to store and transport matrix, and hair sampling does not involve pain or infection risk for the animals. Furthermore, hair assay provides a long-term endocrine profile. Thus, this matrix could be useful to assess long term cortisol accumulation and other hormonal substrates of social trends. Furthermore, hair can be an important indicator of accumulation of environmental pollutants in ecological, clinical and hygienic studies. In this thesis three studies were carried out, concerning respectively the extraction of cortisol, progesterone (P4) and arsenic from hair. We show how the analysis of hormones or other substances in hair constitutes a highly promising and reliable method for assessment of substances secretion over extended periods of time in free-ranging red deer. In particular, our findings suggest that i) hair cortisol concentration provides a good index of long-term HPA axis activity and allostatic load; ii) hair progesterone concentration, in combination with other sexual hormones concentrations in hair and biometric measures, may contribute in the future to develop a reliable and easy pregnancy test for free-ranging red deer; iii) hair arsenic concentration could be analysed, not only in order to assess wild populations status, but also to control wild animals contamination, in biomonitoring investigations or in health programs. In conclusion, the assessment of hormones and micro-elements in the hair seems to be an interesting tool for future wild species management.

description: In this paper secured wireless communication using fuzzy logic based high speed public key cryptography (FLHSPKC) has been proposed by satisfying the major issues likes computational safety, power management and restricted usage of memory in wireless communication. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has several major constraints likes inadequate source of energy, restricted computational potentiality and limited memory. Though conventional Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) which is a sort of public key cryptography used in wireless communication provides equivalent level of security like other existing public key algorithm using smaller parameters than other but this traditional ECC does not take care of all these major limitations in WSN. In conventional ECC consider Elliptic curve point p, an arbitrary integer k and modulus m, ECC carry out scalar multiplication kP mod m, which takes about 80% of key computation time on WSN. In this paper proposed FLHSPKC scheme provides some novel strategy including novel soft computing based strategy to speed up scalar multiplication in conventional ECC and which in turn takes shorter computational time and also satisfies power consumption restraint, limited usage of memory without hampering the security level. Performance analysis of the different strategies under FLHSPKC scheme and comparison study with existing conventional ECC methods has been done.

description: Mapping between discrete and continuous distributions is a difficult task and many have had to resort to heuristical approaches. We propose a tessellation-based approach that directly learns quantization boundaries in a continuous space, complete with exact likelihood evaluations. This is done through constructing normalizing flows on convex polytopes parameterized using a simple homeomorphism with an efficient log determinant Jacobian. We explore this approach in two application settings, mapping from discrete to continuous and vice versa. Firstly, a Voronoi dequantization allows automatically learning quantization boundaries in a multidimensional space. The location of boundaries and distances between regions can encode useful structural relations between the quantized discrete values. Secondly, a Voronoi mixture model has near-constant computation cost for likelihood evaluation regardless of the number of mixture components. Empirically, we show improvements over existing methods across a range of structured data modalities.

description: We study the quantum fluctuation theorem in the one-time measurement (OTM) scheme, where the work distribution of the backward process has been lacking and which is considered to be more informative than the two-time measurement (TTM) scheme. We find that the OTM scheme is the quantum nondemolition TTM scheme, in which the final state is a pointer state of the second measurement whose Hamiltonian is conditioned on the first measurement outcome. Then, by clarifying the backward work distribution in the OTM scheme, we derive the detailed fluctuation theorem in the OTM scheme for the characteristic functions of the forward and backward work distributions, which captures the detailed information about the irreversibility and can be applied to quantum thermometry. We also verified our conceptual findings with the IBM quantum computer. Our result clarifies that the laws of thermodynamics at the nanoscale are dependent on the choice of the measurement and may provide experimentalists with a concrete strategy to explore laws of thermodynamics at the nanoscale by protecting quantum coherence and correlations.

description: We study the entanglement entropies in one-dimensional open critical systems, whose effective description is given by a conformal field theory with boundaries. We show that for pure-state systems formed by the ground state or by the excited states associated to primary fields, the entanglement entropies have a finite-size behavior that depends on the correlation of the underlying field theory. The analytical results are checked numerically, finding excellent agreement for the quantum chains ruled by the theories with central charge $c=1/2$ and $c=1$.

description: I linfomi della zona marginale sono malattie linfoproliferative rare, e rappresentano, nella popolazione generale, circa il 10% di tutti i linfomi non Hodgkin. I pazienti con carenza acquisita di inibitore della C1 esterasi, rappresentano una popolazione ad elevato rischio di sviluppare malattie linfoproliferative, si calcola infatti che il 33% di tali pazienti presenta o presenter� una malattia linfoproliferativa conclamata. In questo studio abbiamo valutato una casistica di 72 pazienti affetti da carenza acquisita di inibitore della C1 esterasi seguiti nel nostro centro per 15 anni (range 1-24 anni) allo scopo di valutare la prevalenza della malattie linfoproliferative in tale popolazione e se particolari istotipi di malattia linfoproliferativa prevalgono in questa popolazione rispetto alla popolazione generale. I pazienti presentano una et� mediana di 71 anni (range 64-79 anni), l?et� mediana all? insorgenza dei sintomi � di 57,5 anni (range 50-66 anni). Ventiquattro pazienti presentavano malattie linfoproliferative. Venti pazienti presentavano malattie linfoproliferative indolenti di tipo non follicolare (il 75% costituito da linfomi marginali splenici), un paziente ha presentato un linfoma follicolare, mentre tre pazienti hanno presentato malattie linfoproliferative ad elevato grado di malignit� (2 linfomi diffusi a grandi cellule B ed un linfoma mantellare). La malattia linfoproliferativa � stata diagnosticata all? insorgenza dei sintomi di angioedema in 15 pazienti nei rimanenti durante il decorso dell?angioedema. 2 dei 24 pazienti sono in ?watchful wait? pertanto allo stato attuale non ricevano alcun trattamento per la malattia linfoproliferativa. 13 pazienti hanno ricevuto un trattamento chemioterapico e due pazienti sono stati trattati con Rituximab. La sola splenectomia � stata effettuata in 3 pazienti. Tutti i pazienti trattati per la malattia linfoproliferativa con trattamento chemio/immunoterapico o splenectomia hanno sperimentato un miglioramento dei sintomi clinici di angioedema o un miglioramento dei parametri complementari. Il nostro studio suggerisce che, i pazienti con carenza acquisita di C1-inibitore hanno una elevata prevalenza di linfomi della zona marginale rispetto alla popolazione generale. L? origine post-germinale di tali malattie linfoproliferative, suggerisce che la stimolazione antigenica continua svolge un ruolo fondamentale nella patogenesi di tale condizioni. La proliferazione clonale B cellulare rappresenta un denominatore comune nei pazienti con carenza acquisita di C1-inibitore sia nei pazienti che presentano anticorpi inattivanti C1 inibitore che in quelli che sviluppano malattia linfoproliferativa.

description: Experimental searches for new, "fifth" forces are attracting a lot of attention because they allow to test theoretical extensions to the standard model. Here, we report a new experimental search for possible fifth forces, specifically spin-and-velocity dependent forces, by using a K-Rb-$^{21}$Ne co-magnetometer and a tungsten ring featuring a high nucleon density. Taking advantage of the high sensitivity of the co-magnetometer, the pseudomagnetic field from the fifth force is measured to be $<7$\,aT. This sets new limits on coupling constants for the neutron-nucleon and proton-nucleon interactions in the range of $\ge 0.1$ m. The coupling constant limits are established to be $|g_V^n|<6.6\times 10^{-11}$ and $|g_V^p|<3.0\times 10^{-10}$, which are more than one order of magnitude tighter than astronomical and cosmological limits on the coupling between the new gauge boson such as Z$'$ and standard model particles.

description: Nanoparticle self-assembly is an efficient bottom-up strategy for the creation of nanostructures. In the standard approach, ligands are grafted on the surfaces of nanoparticles to keep them separated and control interparticle interactions. Ligands then remain secondary and usually are not expected to order significantly during superstructure formation. Here, we investigate how ligands can play a more primary role in the formation of inorganic-organic hybrid materials. We graft poly(2-iso-propyl-2-oxazoline) (PiPrOx) as a crystallizable shell onto SiO$_2$ nanoparticles. By varying the PiPrOx grafting density, solution stability, and nanoparticle aggregation behavior can be controlled. Upon prolonged heating, anisotropic nanostructures form in conjunction with the crystallization of the ligands. Self-assembly of hybrid PiPrOx@SiO$_2$ (shell@core) nanoparticles proceeds in two steps: First, rapid formation of amorphous aggregates via gelation, mediated by the interaction between nanoparticles through grafted polymers; second, slow radial growth of fibers via directional crystallization, governed by the incorporation of crystalline ribbons formed from unbound polymers coupling to the grafted polymer shell. Our work reveals how crystallization-driven self-assembly of ligands can create intricate hybrid nanostructures.

description: The local galaxy peculiar velocity field can be reconstructed from the surrounding distribution of large-scale structure and plays an important role in calibrating cosmic growth and expansion measurements. In this paper, we investigate the effect of the stochasticity of these velocity reconstructions on the statistical and systematic errors in cosmological inferences. By introducing a simple statistical model between the measured and theoretical velocities, whose terms we calibrate from linear theory, we derive the bias in the model velocity. We then use lognormal realisations to explore the potential impact of this bias when using a cosmic flow model to measure the growth rate of structure, and to sharpen expansion rate measurements from host galaxies for gravitational wave standard sirens with electromagnetic counterparts. Although our illustrative study does not contain fully realistic observational effects, we demonstrate that in some scenarios these corrections are significant and result in a measurable improvement in determinations of the Hubble constant compared to standard forecasts.

description: Understanding the forces that shape biodiversity is crucial for the rational management of natural resources and aligning with the objectives set by the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, which aims to restore biodiversity in Europe. Researchers face the challenging task of predicting global biodiversity dynamics and comprehending how species interact with their environment and each other. These dynamics are complex, requiring innovative approaches that combine data, models, and interaction processes to provide accurate predictions and sustainable solutions for managing Earth's biodiversity and ecosystems. To address this challenge, the primary objective of BioDT is to develop a prototype of the Biodiversity Digital Twin, a cutting-edge tool that accurately models and quantifies species interactions with their environment. By harnessing existing technologies and leveraging data from relevant research infrastructures in innovative ways, BioDT aims to provide advanced modeling, simulation, and prediction capabilities. BioDT held this webinar on 8 June 2023 to provide an in-depth technical overview of the development process for the biodiversity digital twin prototype, showcasing: the key components utilised in constructing the digital twin prototype; the seamless integration of Research Infrastructure data into the digital twin prototype; the interaction between the project and High-Performance Computing, including the utilisation of the LUMI Supercomputer. In this presentation, you can discover more about the BioDT technical digital twin platform prototype.

description: Chemically driven fluids can demix to form condensed droplets that exhibit phase behaviors not observed at equilibrium. In particular, nonequilibrium interfacial properties can emerge when the chemical reactions are driven differentially between the interior and exterior of the phase-separated droplets. Here, we use a minimal model to study changes in the interfacial tension between coexisting phases away from equilibrium. Simulations of both droplet nucleation and interface roughness indicate that the nonequilibrium interfacial tension can either be increased or decreased relative to its equilibrium value, depending on whether the driven chemical reactions are accelerated or decelerated within the droplets. Finally, we show that these observations can be understood using a predictive theory based on an effective thermodynamic equilibrium.

description: This paper begins by extending the notion of a combinatorial configuration of points and lines to a combinatorial configuration of points and planes that we refer to as configurations of order $2$. We then proceed to investigate a further extension to the notion of points and $k$-planes ($k$-dimensional hyperplanes) which we refer to as configurations of order $k$. We present a number of general examples such as stacked configurations of order $k$ - intuitively layering lower order configurations - and product configurations of order $k$. We discuss many analogues of standard configurations such as dual configurations, isomorphisms, graphical representations, and when a configuration is geometric. We focus mostly on configurations of order $2$ and specifically compute the number of possible symmetric configurations of order $2$ when each plane contains $3$ points for small values on $n$ - the total number of points in the configuration.

description: We propose the implementation of Galileo group symmetry operations or, in general, linear coordinate transformations, in a quantum simulator. With an appropriate encoding, unitary gates applied to our quantum system give rise to Galilean boosts or spatial and time parity operations in the simulated dynamics. This framework provides us with a flexible toolbox that enhances the versatility of quantum simulation theory, allowing the direct access to dynamical quantities that would otherwise require full tomography. Furthermore, this method enables the study of noncausal kinematics and phenomena beyond special relativity in a quantum controllable system.

description: In communication networks structure and dynamics are tightly coupled. The structure controls the flow of information and is itself shaped by the dynamical process of information exchanged between nodes. In order to reconcile structure and dynamics, a generic model, based on the local interaction between nodes, is considered for the communication in large social networks. In agreement with data from a large human organization, we show that the flow is non-Markovian and controlled by the temporal limitations of individuals. We confirm the versatility of our model by predicting simultaneously the degree-dependent node activity, the balance between information input and output of nodes and the degree distribution. Finally, we quantify the limitations to network analysis when it is based on data sampled over a finite period of time.
