description: CMS and ATLAS have searched for a doubly-charged boson $H^{\pm\pm}$ which may arise from type II seesaw in the 7 TeV run at the LHC by considering pair or associated production of doubly-charged bosons under the assumption of degenerate triplet scalars. In this work, we consider non-degenerate triplet components with the mass gap $ΔM \sim 1 - 40$ GeV which leads to enhanced pair-production cross-sections of $H^{\pm\pm}$ added by the gauge decays of the heavier neutral and singly-charged bosons. We reevaluate the constraints in the $ΔM-M_{H^{++}}$ plane depending on the triplet vacuum expectation value $v_Δ$ in the type II seesaw model which are much more stringent than the current search limits. We further study the possibility of observing same-sign tetra-lepton signals in the allowed parameter space which can be probed in the future runs of the LHC.

description: Данное эссе включено в серию публикаций для нового тематического номера журнала под общим названием: «Животные как партнёры: культурные, экологические, терапевтические аспекты». Следуя размышлениям Жака Дерриды, согласно которому различие подразумевает общность, эссе проблематизирует различие между людьми и животными, которое считается само собой разумеющимся в западной философской традиции и составляет её важную часть. Философия определяет человека как способного рассуждать в противоположность животному. В то же время страдание свойственно и людям, и животным. Деррида ссылается на роман Дж. М. Кутзее «Элизабет Костелло», в котором главный персонаж, Элизабет Костелло, ощущает себя «раненой» страданиями животных и признаёт это чувство как основу взаимопонимания в отношениях людей и животных, тем самым смещая дискуссию с обсуждения разума как ключевой характеристики человека в западной философской традиции к чувствам и искусству.

description: Pollux is considered as an archetype of a giant star hosting a planet: its radial velocity (RV) presents sinusoidal variations with a period of about 590 d, which have been stable for more than 25 years. Using ESPaDOnS and Narval we have detected a weak (sub-gauss) magnetic field at the surface of Pollux and followed up its variations with Narval during 4.25 years, i.e. more than for two periods of the RV variations. The longitudinal magnetic field is found to vary with a sinusoidal behaviour with a period close to that of the RV variations and with a small shift in phase. We then performed a Zeeman Doppler imaging (ZDI) investigation from the Stokes V and Stokes I least-squares deconvolution (LSD) profiles. A rotational period is determined, which is consistent with the period of variations of the RV. The magnetic topology is found to be mainly poloidal and this component almost purely dipolar. The mean strength of the surface magnetic field is about 0.7 G. As an alternative to the scenario in which Pollux hosts a close-in exoplanet, we suggest that the magnetic dipole of Pollux can be associated with two temperature and macroturbulent velocity spots which could be sufficient to produce the RV variations. We finally investigate the scenarii of the origin of the magnetic field which could explain the observed properties of Pollux.

description: This paper conducts a detailed simulation study of stateless anycast routing in a mobile wireless ad hoc network. The model covers all the fundamental aspects of such networks with a routing mechanism using a scheme of orientation-dependent inter-node communication links. The simulation system Winsim is used which explicitly represents parallelism of events and processes in the network. The purpose of these simulations is to investigate the effect of node s maximum speed, and different TTL over the network performance under two different scenarios. Simulation study investigates five practically important performance metrics of a wireless mobile ad hoc network and shows the dependence of this metrics on the transmission radius, link availability, and maximal possible node speed.

description: In this review we discuss the latest results concerning development of the machine learning algorithms for characterization of the magnetic skyrmions that are topologically-protected magnetic textures originated from the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction that competes Heisenberg isotropic exchange in ferromagnets. We show that for classical spin systems there is a whole pool of machine approaches allowing their accurate phase classification and quantitative description on the basis of few magnetization snapshots. In turn, investigation of the quantum skyrmions is a less explored issue, since there are fundamental limitations on the simulation of such wave functions with classical supercomputers. One needs to find the ways to imitate quantum skyrmions on near-term quantum computers. In this respect, we discuss implementation of the method for estimating structural complexity of classical objects for characterization of the quantum skyrmion state on the basis of limited number of bitstrings obtained from the projective measurements.

Metropolis-Hastings thermal state sampling for numerical simulations of Bose-Einstein condensates

description: We demonstrate the application of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to sampling of classical thermal states of one-dimensional Bose-Einstein quasicondensates in the classical fields approximation, both in untrapped and harmonically trapped case. The presented algorithm can be easily generalized to higher dimensions and arbitrary trap geometry. For truncated Wigner simulations the quantum noise can be added with conventional methods (half a quantum of energy in every mode). The advantage of the presented method over the usual analytical and stochastic ones lies in its ability to sample not only from canonical and grand canonical distributions, but also from the generalized Gibbs ensemble, which can help to shed new light on thermodynamics of integrable systems.

The High Precision Numerical Calculation of Stieltjes Constants. Simple and Fast Algorithm

Subjects: subject: Number Theory (math.NT)

description: We present a simple but efficient method of calculating Stieltjes constants at a very high level of precision, up to about 80000 significant digits. This method is based on the hypergeometric-like expansion for the Riemann zeta function presented by one of the authors in 1997 \cite{Maslanka 1}. The crucial ingredient in this method is a sequence of high-precision numerical values of the Riemann zeta function computed in equally spaced real arguments, i.e. $ζ(1+\varepsilon),ζ(1+2\varepsilon),ζ(1+3\varepsilon),...$ where $\varepsilon$ is some real parameter. (Practical choice of $\varepsilon$ is described in the main text.) Such values of zeta may be readily obtained using the PARI/GP program, which is especially suitable for this.

description: We obtained Subaru FMOS observations of Halpha emitting galaxies selected from the HiZELS narrow-band survey, to investigate the relationship between stellar mass, metallicity and star-formation rate at z = 0.84 - 1.47, for comparison with the Fundamental Metallicity Relation seen at low redshift. Our findings demonstrate, for the first time with a homogeneously selected sample, that a relationship exists for typical star-forming galaxies at z = 1 - 1.5 and that it is surprisingly similar to that seen locally. Therefore, star-forming galaxies at z = 1 - 1.5 are no less metal abundant than galaxies of similar mass and star formation rate (SFR) at z = 0.1, contrary to claims from some earlier studies. We conclude that the bulk of the metal enrichment for this star-forming galaxy population takes place in the 4 Gyr before z = 1.5. We fit a new mass-metallicity-SFR plane to our data which is consistent with other high redshift studies. However, there is some evidence that the mass-metallicity component of this high redshift plane is flattened, at all SFR, compared with z = 0.1, suggesting that processes such as star-formation driven winds, thought to remove enriched gas from low mass halos, are yet to have as large an impact at this early epoch. The negative slope of the SFR-metallicity relation from this new plane is consistent with the picture that the elevation in the SFR of typical galaxies at z > 1 is fuelled by the inflow of metal-poor gas and not major merging.

description: In a recent paper [Vaikuntanathan and Jarzynski, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 83}, 061120 (2011), arXiv:1105.1744] a model was introduced whereby work could be extracted from a thermal bath by measuring the energy of a particle that was thermalized by the bath and manipulating the potential of the particle in the appropriate way, depending on the measurement outcome. If the extracted work is $W_1$ and the work $W_{\text{er}}$ needed to be dissipated in order to erase the measured information in accordance with Landauer's principle, it was shown that $W_1\leq W_{\text{er}}$ in accordance with the second law of thermodynamics. Here we extend this work in two directions: First, we discuss how accurately the energy should be measured. By increasing the accuracy one can extract more work, but at the same time one obtains more information that has to be deleted. We discuss what are the appropriate ways of optimizing the balance between the two and find optimal solutions. Second, whenever $W_1$ is strictly less than $W_{\text{er}}$ it means that an irreversible step has been performed. We identify the irreversible step and propose a protocol that will achieve the same transition in a reversible way, increasing $W_1$ so that $W_1 = W_{\text{er}}$.

description: With calls for increasing transparency, governments are releasing greater amounts of data in multiple domains including finance, education and healthcare. The efficient exploratory analysis of healthcare data constitutes a significant challenge. Key concerns in public health include the quick identification and analysis of trends, and the detection of outliers. This allows policies to be rapidly adapted to changing circumstances. We present an efficient outlier detection technique, termed PIKS (Pruned iterative-k means searchlight), which combines an iterative k-means algorithm with a pruned searchlight based scan. We apply this technique to identify outliers in two publicly available healthcare datasets from the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System, and California's Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development. We provide a comparison of our technique with three other existing outlier detection techniques, consisting of auto-encoders, isolation forests and feature bagging. We identified outliers in conditions including suicide rates, immunity disorders, social admissions, cardiomyopathies, and pregnancy in the third trimester. We demonstrate that the PIKS technique produces results consistent with other techniques such as the auto-encoder. However, the auto-encoder needs to be trained, which requires several parameters to be tuned. In comparison, the PIKS technique has far fewer parameters to tune. This makes it advantageous for fast, "out-of-the-box" data exploration. The PIKS technique is scalable and can readily ingest new datasets. Hence, it can provide valuable, up-to-date insights to citizens, patients and policy-makers. We have made our code open source, and with the availability of open data, other researchers can easily reproduce and extend our work. This will help promote a deeper understanding of healthcare policies and public health issues.

description: The emerging field of entanglement or nonseparability in classical optics is reviewed, and its similarities with and differences from quantum entanglement clearly pointed out through a recapitulation of Hilbert spaces in general, the special restrictions on Hilbert spaces imposed in quantum mechanics and the role of Hilbert spaces in classical polarization optics. The production of Bell-like states in classical polarization optics is discussed, and new theorems are proved to discriminate between separable and nonseparable states in classical wave optics where no discreteness is involved. The influence of the Pancharatnam phase on a classical Bell-like state is deived. Finally, to what extent classical polarization optics can be used to simulate quantum information processing tasks is also discussed. This should be of great practical importance because coherence and entanglement are robust in classical optics but not in quantum systems.

description: From July 2019 to July 2020, the University of Liverpool’s Department of Politics hosted a research fellowship on Safeguarding through the Antislavery Knowledge Network (AKN), an Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Network Plus initiative. The safeguarding research fellowship was dedicated to carrying out the project - ‘Enhancing Safeguarding in Efforts to Address Modern Slavery through the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals’. This work explored and assessed local safeguarding practice and methods in existing AKN projects that are using arts and humanities methods to develop community-based responses to modern slavery. Through a range of creative approaches, AKN staff and partners have critiqued and expanded concepts of power, dignity and voice that are central to understandings of safeguarding within the context of research in the antislavery and antitrafficking field. The role of Research Fellow was undertaken in two phases: Dr Leona Vaughn from August to December 2019, and Linnea Renton from January to July 2020. Leona has remained involved with AKN’s safeguarding work through her role in helping to design, develop and disseminate safeguarding research and guidance, and in relation to her current research on anticolonial methodologies for slavery and unfree labour.

description: In double quantum dot singlet-triplet qubits, the exchange interaction is used in both quantum gate operation and the measurement of the state of the qubit. The exchange can be controlled electronically by applying gate voltage pulses. We simulate the exchange induced charge state transitions in one and two singlet-triplet qubit systems using the exact diagonalization method. We find that fast detuning pulses may result in leakage between different singlet charge states. The leakage could cause measurement errors and hinder quantum gate operation for example in the case of the two-qubit Coulomb gate.

description: In real-world applications, the process generating the data might suffer from nonstationary effects (e.g., due to seasonality, faults affecting sensors or actuators, and changes in the users' behaviour). These changes, often called concept drift, might induce severe (potentially catastrophic) impacts on trained learning models that become obsolete over time, and inadequate to solve the task at hand. Learning in presence of concept drift aims at designing machine and deep learning models that are able to track and adapt to concept drift. Typically, techniques to handle concept drift are either active or passive, and traditionally, these have been considered to be mutually exclusive. Active techniques use an explicit drift detection mechanism, and re-train the learning algorithm when concept drift is detected. Passive techniques use an implicit method to deal with drift, and continually update the model using incremental learning. Differently from what present in the literature, we propose a hybrid alternative which merges the two approaches, hence, leveraging on their advantages. The proposed method called Hybrid-Adaptive REBAlancing (HAREBA) significantly outperforms strong baselines and state-of-the-art methods in terms of learning quality and speed; we experiment how it is effective under severe class imbalance levels too.

description: Domain adaptive semantic segmentation methods commonly utilize stage-wise training, consisting of a warm-up and a self-training stage. However, this popular approach still faces several challenges in each stage: for warm-up, the widely adopted adversarial training often results in limited performance gain, due to blind feature alignment; for self-training, finding proper categorical thresholds is very tricky. To alleviate these issues, we first propose to replace the adversarial training in the warm-up stage by a novel symmetric knowledge distillation module that only accesses the source domain data and makes the model domain generalizable. Surprisingly, this domain generalizable warm-up model brings substantial performance improvement, which can be further amplified via our proposed cross-domain mixture data augmentation technique. Then, for the self-training stage, we propose a threshold-free dynamic pseudo-label selection mechanism to ease the aforementioned threshold problem and make the model better adapted to the target domain. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our framework achieves remarkable and consistent improvements compared to the prior arts on popular benchmarks.

description: This paper provides a review of recent advances in multi-user cooperative data transmission. The focus is on the inherent trade-off between achievable throughput and reliability of cooperative transmission. Research has shown that under a fixed transmit energy budget, increased cooperation doesn't necessarily lead to increased reliability. In fact, careful cooperation partner selection and power allocation is needed in order to fully exploit the benefits of cooperative transmission. Furthermore, depending on the multi-media content, different cooperation strategies may need to be considered.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study static BPS black hole horizons in four dimensional N=2 gauged supergravity coupled to $n_v$-vector multiplets and with an arbitrary cubic prepotential. We work in a symplectically covariant formalism which allows for both electric and magnetic gauging parameters as well as dyonic background charges and obtain the general solution to the BPS equations for horizons of the form $AdS_2\times Σ_g$. In particular this means we solve for the scalar fields as well as the metric of these black holes as a function of the gauging parameters and background charges. When the special Kahler manifold is a symmetric space, our solution is completely explicit and the entropy is related to the familiar quartic invariant. For more general models our solution is implicit up to a set of holomorphic quadratic equations. For particular models which have known embeddings in M-theory, we derive new horizon geometries with dyonic charges and numerically construct black hole solutions. These correspond to M2-branes wrapped on a Riemann surface in a local Calabi-Yau five-fold with internal spin.

description: In a recent article [http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.87.022340, Phys. Rev. A 87, 022340 (2013)], Yan et al have studied geometric discord for a well known class of bound entangled states. Based on their calculation, they claim "It is found that there exists a nondynamic sudden change in quantum discord" for these states. In this Comment, we criticize their work by pointing out that what has been calculated is actually a bound, and not the exact value of discord. Since, generally, it is not possible to infer the exact value (or property) of a quantity just from its bound, we can not conclude about (exact) discord and its change. Thus, the above-mentioned conclusion can not be drawn from the calculations of the paper.

description: Establishment of point correspondence between camera and object coordinate systems is a promising way to solve 6D object poses. However, surrogate objectives of correspondence learning in 3D space are a step away from the true ones of object pose estimation, making the learning suboptimal for the end task. In this paper, we address this shortcoming by introducing a new method of Deep Correspondence Learning Network for direct 6D object pose estimation, shortened as DCL-Net. Specifically, DCL-Net employs dual newly proposed Feature Disengagement and Alignment (FDA) modules to establish, in the feature space, partial-to-partial correspondence and complete-to-complete one for partial object observation and its complete CAD model, respectively, which result in aggregated pose and match feature pairs from two coordinate systems; these two FDA modules thus bring complementary advantages. The match feature pairs are used to learn confidence scores for measuring the qualities of deep correspondence, while the pose feature pairs are weighted by confidence scores for direct object pose regression. A confidence-based pose refinement network is also proposed to further improve pose precision in an iterative manner. Extensive experiments show that DCL-Net outperforms existing methods on three benchmarking datasets, including YCB-Video, LineMOD, and Oclussion-LineMOD; ablation studies also confirm the efficacy of our novel designs.

description: Privacy-aware processing of personal data on the web of services requires managing a number of issues arising both from the technical and the legal domain. Several approaches have been proposed to matching privacy requirements (on the clients side) and privacy guarantees (on the service provider side). Still, the assurance of effective data protection (when possible) relies on substantial human effort and exposes organizations to significant (non-)compliance risks. In this paper we put forward the idea that a privacy certification scheme producing and managing machine-readable artifacts in the form of privacy certificates can play an important role towards the solution of this problem. Digital privacy certificates represent the reasons why a privacy property holds for a service and describe the privacy measures supporting it. Also, privacy certificates can be used to automatically select services whose certificates match the client policies (privacy requirements). Our proposal relies on an evolution of the conceptual model developed in the Assert4Soa project and on a certificate format specifically tailored to represent privacy properties. To validate our approach, we present a worked-out instance showing how privacy property Retention-based unlinkability can be certified for a banking financial service.

Methods in Ecology and Evolution https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.13278 ". This is the version 8, a minor update. See readme.txt. The abstract of the paper is:
1. Statistical analysis of trait-environment association is challenging owing to the lack of a common observation unit: Community weighted mean regression (CWMr) uses site points, multilevel models focus on species points, and the fourth-corner correlation uses all species-site combinations. This situation invites the development of new methods capable of using all observation-levels. To this end, new multilevel and weighted averaging-based regression methods are proposed. 2. Compared to existing methods, the new multilevel method, called MLM3, has additional site-related random effects; they represent the unknowns in the environment that interact with the trait. The new weighted averaging method combines site-level CWMr with a species-level regression of Species Niche Centroids on to the trait. Because species can vary enormously in frequency and abundance giving diversity variation among sites, the regressions are weighted by Hill's effective number (N2) of occurrences of each species and the N2-diversity of a site, and are subsequently combined in a sequential test procedure known as the max test. 3. Using the test statistics of these new methods, the permutation-based max test provides strong statistical evidence for trait-environment association in a plant community dataset, where existing methods show weak evidence. In simulations, the existing multilevel model showed bias and type I error inflation, whereas MLM3 did not. Out of the weighted averaging-based regression methods, the N2-weighted version best controlled the type I error rate. MLM3 was superior to the weighted averaging-based methods with up to 30% more power.

description: Humans excel in grasping objects through diverse and robust policies, many of which are so probabilistically rare that exploration-based learning methods hardly observe and learn. Inspired by the human learning process, we propose a method to extract and exploit latent intents from demonstrations, and then learn diverse and robust grasping policies through self-exploration. The resulting policy can grasp challenging objects in various environments with an off-the-shelf parallel gripper. The key component is a learned intention estimator, which maps gripper pose and visual sensory to a set of sub-intents covering important phases of the grasping movement. Sub-intents can be used to build an intrinsic reward to guide policy learning. The learned policy demonstrates remarkable zero-shot generalization from simulation to the real world while retaining its robustness against states that have never been encountered during training, novel objects such as protractors and user manuals, and environments such as the cluttered conveyor.

description: Encouraged by the success of RMF+BCS approach for the description of the ground state properties of the chains of isotopes of proton magic nuclei with proton number \textit{Z}=8, 20, 28, 50 and 82 as well as those of proton sub-magic nuclei with \textit{Z}=40, we have further employed it, in an analogous manner, for a detailed calculations of the ground state properties of the neutron magic isotones with neutron number \textit{N} = 8, 20, 28, 50, 82 and 126 as well as those of neutron sub-magic isotones with \textit{N} = 40 using the TMA force parameterizations in order to explore low lying resonance and other exotic phenomenon near drip-lines. The results of these calculations for wave-function, single particle pairing gaps etc. are presented here to demonstrate the general validity of our RMF+BCS approach. It is found that, in some of the proton-rich nuclei in the vicinity of the proton drip-line, the main contribution to the pairing correlations is provided by the low-lying resonant states, in addition to the contributions coming from the states close to the Fermi surface, which results extended proton drip-line for isotonic chain.

description: This interview is embraced in a series of publications for a new thematic issue of the journal entitled: ‘Animals as partners: cultural, ecological, therapeutic implications.’ In an interview, Scottish artist and art therapist Beverley A'Court talks about the holistic, environmental/ecological approach in art and art therapy. Considering the role of the environment from the point of view of such art therapy, she dwells on the phenomena of spontaneous participation of animals in creative acts and the art therapy process, their ability to “resonate” with the experiences of clients and respond to their emotional needs. Holistic art therapy is presented as allowing on a new basis to understand the participation of different forms of life in interaction and co-creation with each other aimed at restoring health, beauty and well-being.

description: Although fluorescence is the prevailing labeling technique in biosensing applications, sensitivity improvement is still a striving challenge. We show that coating standard microscope slides with nanoroughened silver films provides a high fluorescence signal enhancement due to plasmonic interactions. As a proof of concept, we applied these films with tailored plasmonic properties to DNA microarrays. Using common optical scanning devices, we achieved signal amplifications by more than 40-fold.
The introduction of three cryptic tree frog species in the Dutch coastal dunes challenges conservation paradigms

description: Invasive species are considered one of the main drivers of the sixth mass extinction. Conservation solutions depend on whether a species is also indigenous to the country it invades (i.e., beyond its native range). In the case of invasive cryptic species, genetic tools are required to establish their identity. We illustrate these issues with the human-mediated colonization of the Dutch coastal dunes by Hyla tree frogs. Although previously assumed to concern the indigenous common tree frog H. arborea, European tree frogs comprise a complex of allopatric cryptic species, meaning the taxonomic identity of introduced Dutch populations warrants investigation. We sequence mtDNA for 164 individuals from native and introduced populations across the Netherlands and compare our dataset with hundreds of Hyla haplotypes previously barcoded in the Western Palearctic. Two of the dune populations carry an mtDNA haplotype of the native species H. arborea that occurs naturally elsewhere in the Netherlands. In contrast, mtDNA assigned to the eastern tree frog H. orientalis was detected in all three other dune populations. In one of these populations mtDNA of the Italian tree frog H. intermedia was also found. Not one, but three species of tree frogs have thus been introduced to the Dutch coastal dunes, only one of them being native to the Netherlands. This situation causes a conservation conundrum as some introduced populations are lawfully protected but could pose a threat to local biodiversity. Regarding the ‘true’ exotic tree frog species, all conservation options should be considered.
