description: We propose precise effective field theory criteria to obtain a four-dimensional de Sitter space within M-theory. To this effect, starting with the state space described by the action of metric perturbations, fluxes etc over the supersymmetric Minkowski vacuum in eleven-dimensions, we discuss the most general low energy effective action in terms of the eleven-dimensional fields including non-perturbative and non-local terms. Given this, our criteria to obtain a valid four-dimensional de Sitter solution at far IR involve satisfying the Schwinger-Dyson equations of the associated path integral, as well as obeying positivity constraints on the dual IIA string coupling and its time derivative. For excited states, the Schwinger-Dyson equations imply an effective emergent potential different from the original potential. We show that while vacuum solutions and arbitrary coherent states fail to satisfy these criteria, a specific class of excited states called the Glauber-Sudarshan states obey them. Using the resurgent structure of observables computed using the path integral over the Glauber-Sudarshan states, four-dimensional de Sitter in the flat slicing can be constructed using a Glauber-Sudarshan state in M-theory.
 Among other novel results, we discuss the smallness of the positive cosmological constant, including the curious case where the cosmological constant is very slowly varying with time. We also discuss the resolution of identity with the Glauber-Sudarshan states, generation and the convergence properties of the non-perturbative and the non-local effects, the problems with the static patch and other related topics. We analyze briefly the issues related to the compatibility of the Wilsonian effective action with Borel resummations and discuss how they influence the effective field theory description in a four-dimensional de Sitter space.

description: Multiple dissipative self-assembly protocols designed to create novel structures or to reduce kinetic traps have recently emerged. Specifically, temporal oscillations of particle interactions have been shown effective at both aims, but investigations thus far have focused on systems of simple colloids or their binary mixtures. In this work, we expand our understanding of the effect of temporally oscillating interactions to a two-dimensional coarse-grained viral capsid-like model that undergoes a self-limited assembly. This model includes multiple intrinsic relaxation times due to the internal structure of the capsid subunits and, under certain interaction regimes, proceeds via a two-step nucleation mechanism. We find that oscillations much faster than the local intrinsic relaxation times can be described via a time averaged inter-particle potential across a wide range of interaction strengths, while oscillations much slower than these relaxation times result in structures that adapt to the attraction strength of the current half-cycle. Interestingly, oscillation periods similar to these relaxation times shift the interaction window over which orderly assembly occurs by enabling error correction during the half-cycles with weaker attractions. Our results provide fundamental insights to non-equilibrium self-assembly on temporally variant energy landscapes.

description: Η έρευνα για τον βέλτιστο σχεδιασμό της αντασφάλισης χρονολογείται από τη δεκαετία του 1960. Για σχεδόν μισό αιώνα, η αναζήτηση του βέλτιστου αντασφαλιστικού σχεδιασμού παραμένει ένα συναρπαστικό θέμα, προσελκύοντας σημαντικό ενδιαφέρον τόσο από ακαδημαϊκούς όσο και από επαγγελματίες. Η γοητεία του έγκειται στις δυνατότητές του ως ένα αποτελεσματικό εργαλείο διαχείρισης κινδύνων για την ασφαλιστές. Υπάρχουν πολλοί τρόποι διατύπωσης του βέλτιστου σχεδιασμού της αντασφάλισης, ανάλογα με τον επιλεγμένο στόχο και τους περιορισμούς. Στην παρούσα διατριβή, ασχολούμαστε με το πρόβλημα του βέλτιστου σχεδιασμού της αντασφάλισης από τη σκοπιά ενός ασφαλιστή. Για το έναν ασφαλιστή, η κατάλληλη χρήση της αντασφάλισης συμβάλλει στη μείωση του δυσμενούς κινδύνου έκθεση και να βελτιώσει τη συνολική βιωσιμότητα της υποκείμενης επιχείρησης. Από την άλλη από την άλλη πλευρά, η αντασφάλιση συνεπάγεται πρόσθετο κόστος για τον ασφαλιστή με τη μορφή αντασφάλισης ασφάλιστρο. Αυτό συνεπάγεται ένα κλασικό tradeoff κινδύνου και ανταμοιβής που αντιμετωπίζει ο ασφαλιστής. Ο πρωταρχικός στόχος της διατριβής είναι η ανάπτυξη θεωρητικά τεκμηριωμένων και συνάμα πρακτική λύση στην αναζήτηση βέλτιστων αντασφαλιστικών σχεδίων. Προκειμένου να επιτευχθεί του στόχου αυτού, η παρούσα διατριβή χωρίζεται σε δύο μέρη. Στο πρώτο µέρος, ένας αριθμός ων µοντέλων αντασφάλισης αναπτύσσονται και οι βέλτιστες αντασφαλιστικές συµβάσεις τους παράγονται ρητά. Το μέρος αυτό επικεντρώνεται στην αντασφάλιση ελαχιστοποίησης του μέτρου κινδύνου και συζητά τις βέλτιστες αντασφαλιστικές συμβάσεις αξιοποιώντας δύο από τα πιο κοινά μέτρα κινδύνου γνωστά ως η αξία κινδύνου (VaR) και η υπό συνθήκη ουρά Conditional Tail Expectation (CTE). Ορισμένοι πρόσθετοι σημαντικοί οικονομικοί παράγοντες, όπως ο προϋπολογισμός των ασφαλίστρων αντασφάλισης, η κερδοφορία του ασφαλιστή λαμβάνονται επίσης υπόψη. Tο δεύτερος μέρος προτείνει μια καινοτόμο μέθοδο για τη διατύπωση των μοντέλων αντασφάλισης, η οποία αναφερόμαστε ως εμπειρική προσέγγιση, δεδομένου ότι αξιοποιεί ρητά την εμπειρικά δεδομένα ζημιών του ασφαλιστή. Η εμπειρική προσέγγιση έχει το πλεονέκτημα ότι είναι πρακτική και διαισθητικά ελκυστική. Η προσέγγιση αυτή υποκινείται από τη δυσχέρεια ότι τα μοντέλα αντασφάλισης είναι συχνά προβλήματα βελτιστοποίησης σε περιορισμένες διαστάσεις και, ως εκ τούτου, οι ρητές λύσεις είναι εφικτές μόνο σε ορισμένες ειδικές περιπτώσεις. Η εμπειρική προσέγγιση αναδιατυπώνει αποτελεσματικά το πρόβλημα της βέλτιστης αντασφάλισης σε ένα πρόβλημα βελτιστοποίησης περιορισμένων διαστάσεων. Επιπλέον, αποδεικνύουμε ότι ο κωνικός δεύτερης τάξης προγραμματισμός μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί για την απόκτηση των βέλτιστων λύσεων για ένα ευρύ φάσμα αντασφαλιστικών που διατυπώνονται με την εμπειρική προσέγγιση.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The emission of neutron pairs from the neutron-rich $N\!=\!12$ isotones $^{18}$C and $^{20}$O has been studied by high-energy nucleon knockout from $^{19}$N and $^{21}$O secondary beams, populating unbound states of the two isotones up to 15~MeV above their two-neutron emission thresholds. The analysis of triple fragment-$n$-$n$ correlations shows that the decay $^{19}$N$(-1p)^{18}$C$^*\!\rightarrow^{16}$C+$n$+$n$ is clearly dominated by direct pair emission. The two-neutron correlation strength, the largest ever observed, suggests the predominance of a $^{14}$C core surrounded by four valence neutrons arranged in strongly correlated pairs. On the other hand, a significant competition of a sequential branch is found in the decay $^{21}$O$(-1n)^{20}$O$^*\!\rightarrow^{18}$O+$n$+$n$, attributed to its formation through the knockout of a deeply-bound neutron that breaks the $^{16}$O core and reduces the number of pairs.

description: Ultrarelativistic vortex leptons with intrinsic orbital angular momenta (OAM) have important applications in high energy particle physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics, etc. However, unfortunately, their generation still poses a great challenge. Here, we put forward a novel method for generating ultrarelativistic vortex positrons and electrons through nonlinear Breit-Wheeler (NBW) scattering of vortex $γ$ photons. For the first time, a complete angular momentum-resolved scattering theory has been formulated, introducing the angular momentum of laser photons and vortex particles into the conventional NBW scattering framework. We find that vortex positron (electron) can be produced when the outgoing electron (positron) is generated along the collision axis. By unveiling the angular momentum transfer mechanism, we clarify that OAM of the $γ$ photon and angular momenta of multiple laser photons are entirely transferred to the generated pairs, leading to the production of ultrarelativistic vortex positrons or electrons with large OAM. Furthermore, we find that the cone opening angle and superposition state of the vortex $γ$ photon, distinct characteristics aside from its intrinsic OAM, can be determined via the angular distribution of created pairs in NBW processes. Our method paves the way for investigating strong-field quantum electrodynamics processes concerning the generation and detection of vortex particle beams in intense lasers.

description: We present an X-ray spectral survey of radio-loud (RL) AGNs using ASCA and RXTE. The goal was to study the structure of their central engines and compare it to that of their radio-quiet (RQ) counterparts. We find Systematic differences in the X-ray properties of the two AGN classes. Specifically, RL AGNs exhibit weaker Fe lines and reflection components than RQ AGNs, indicating smaller solid angles subtended by the reprocessing medium to the X-ray source. The circumnuclear environs of RL and RQ AGNs also differ: large amounts of cold gas are detected in Broad Line Radio Galaxies and Quasars, contrary to what is found in Seyfert galaxies of similar X-ray luminosity. We also discuss ASCA observations of Weak Line Radio Galaxies, a distinct subset of radio galaxies which may harbor a low-luminosity AGN powered by an advection-dominated accretion flow.

description: This study analyzes the effect that financial literacy has on individuals’ trust in the financial system. For this end, three different sorts of financial literacy are used, basic financial literacy, financial knowledge of investment products and financial awareness on the role played by financial institutions. Among the three types of financial literacy examined, sophisticated financial literacy, in particular that related to knowledge of investment products, plays the most relevant role in explaining individuals’ financial trust. The findings show that less financially literate individuals are less likely to trust the financial system as a whole, as well as banks. Moreover, individuals with lower financial awareness perceive also lower levels of honesty and solvency in banks.

description: A model-based approach to forecasting chaotic dynamical systems utilizes knowledge of the physical processes governing the dynamics to build an approximate mathematical model of the system. In contrast, machine learning techniques have demonstrated promising results for forecasting chaotic systems purely from past time series measurements of system state variables (training data), without prior knowledge of the system dynamics. The motivation for this paper is the potential of machine learning for filling in the gaps in our underlying mechanistic knowledge that cause widely-used knowledge-based models to be inaccurate. Thus we here propose a general method that leverages the advantages of these two approaches by combining a knowledge-based model and a machine learning technique to build a hybrid forecasting scheme. Potential applications for such an approach are numerous (e.g., improving weather forecasting). We demonstrate and test the utility of this approach using a particular illustrative version of a machine learning known as reservoir computing, and we apply the resulting hybrid forecaster to a low-dimensional chaotic system, as well as to a high-dimensional spatiotemporal chaotic system. These tests yield extremely promising results in that our hybrid technique is able to accurately predict for a much longer period of time than either its machine-learning component or its model-based component alone.

description: The proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has since seen a growing interest in architectural design and adaptive frameworks to promote the connection between heterogeneous IoT devices and IoT systems. The most widely favoured software architecture in IoT is the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), which aims to provide a loosely coupled systems to leverage the use and reuse of IoT services at the middle-ware layer, to minimise system integration problems. However, despite the flexibility offered by SOA, the challenges of integrating, scaling and ensuring resilience in IoT systems persist. One of the key causes of poor integration in IoT systems is the lack of an intelligent, connection-aware framework to support interaction in IoT systems. This paper reviews existing architectural frameworks for integrating IoT devices and identifies the key areas that require further research improvements. The paper concludes by proposing a possible solution based on microservice. The proposed IoT integration framework benefits from an intelligent API layer that employs an external service assembler, service auditor, service monitor and service router component to coordinate service publishing, subscription, decoupling and service combination within the architecture.

description: We present a technique for simultaneous 3D reconstruction of static regions and rigidly moving objects in a scene. An RGB-D frame is represented as a collection of features, which are points and planes. We classify the features into static and dynamic regions and grow separate maps, static and object maps, for each of them. To robustly classify the features in each frame, we fuse multiple RANSAC-based registration results obtained by registering different groups of the features to different maps, including (1) all the features to the static map, (2) all the features to each object map, and (3) subsets of the features, each forming a segment, to each object map. This multi-group registration approach is designed to overcome the following challenges: scenes can be dominated by static regions, making object tracking more difficult; and moving object might have larger pose variation between frames compared to the static regions. We show qualitative results from indoor scenes with objects in various shapes. The technique enables on-the-fly object model generation to be used for robotic manipulation.

description: We give a more complete calculation of $b \to sγ$ decay, including leading log QCD corrections from $m_{top}$ to $M_W$ in addition to corrections from $M_{W}$ to $m_b$. We have included the full set of dimension-6 operators and corrected numerical mistakes of anomalous dimensions in a previous paper\cite{Cho}. Comparing with the calculations without QCD running from $m_{top}$ to $M_W$\cite{Mis}, the inclusive decay rate is found to be enhanced. At $m_t=150$GeV, it results in 12\% enhancement, and for $m_t=250$GeV, 15\% is found. The total QCD effect makes an enhanced factor of 4.2 at $m_t=150$GeV, and 3.2 for $m_t=250$GeV.

description: Variational quantum eigensolver (VQE), which combines quantum systems with classical computational power, has been arisen as a promising candidate for near-term quantum computing applications. However, the experimental resources such as the number of measurements to implement VQE rapidly increases as the Hamiltonian problem size grows. Applying entanglement measurements to reduce the number of measurement setups has been proposed to address this issue, however, entanglement measurements themselves can introduce additional resource demands. Here, we apply entanglement measurements to the photonic VQE utilizing polarization and path degrees of freedom of a single-photon. In our photonic VQE, entanglement measurements can be deterministically implemented using linear optics, so it takes full advantage of introducing entanglement measurements without additional experimental demands. Moreover, we show that such a setup can mitigate errors in measurement apparatus for a certain Hamiltonian.

description: The origin of neutrino masses remains unknown. Both the vacuum mass and the dark mass generated by the neutrino interaction with dark matter (DM) particles or fields can fit the current oscillation data. The dark mass squared is proportional to the DM number density and therefore varies on the galactic scale with much larger values around the Galactic Center. This affects the group velocity and the arrival time delay of core-collapse supernovae (SN) neutrinos. This time delay, especially for the $ν_e$ neutronization peak with a sharp time structure, can be used to distinguish the vacuum and dark neutrino masses. For illustration, we explore the potential of DUNE which is sensitive to $ν_e$. Our simulations show that DUNE can distinguish the two neutrino mass origins at more than $5σ\,$C.L., depending on the observed local value of neutrino mass, the neutrino mass ordering, the DM density profile, and the SN location.

description: Objective: To assess the safety and efficacy of ertugliflozin over 104 weeks in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled on metformin. Methods: In this double-blind, multicenter, randomized, phase III study (VERTIS SU; NCT01999218), adults with T2DM and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) 7.0–9.0% on metformin ≥1500 mg/day received ertugliflozin 5 mg or 15 mg, or glimepiride. The primary efficacy time point was Week 52; double-blinded treatment continued until Week 104. Results: Baseline characteristics of randomized, treated patients (n = 1315) were similar across groups (mean age 58.2 years, HbA1c 7.8%); 76.4% completed the study; 61.6% completed on study medication. Mean glimepiride dose at 104 weeks was 3.5 mg/day. At Week 104, least squares mean change from baseline in HbA1c (95% confidence intervals) were −0.3% (−0.4, −0.2), −0.4% (−0.5, −0.3) and −0.4% (−0.5, −0.3) for ertugliflozin 5 mg, 15 mg, and glimepiride, respectively. Ertugliflozin provided sustained reductions in body weight and systolic blood pressure (SBP) over 104 weeks. The incidence of adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs was similar across groups. The incidence of symptomatic hypoglycemia was 3.8%, 6.4% and 22.1% in the ertugliflozin 5 mg, 15 mg, and glimepiride groups, respectively. Genital mycotic infections were reported in 5.3%, 2.6% and 0% of men, respectively, and 9.2%, 12.3% and 1.4% of women, respectively. The incidence of urinary tract infection and hypovolemia AEs was similar across groups. Conclusions: Ertugliflozin was well tolerated and provided clinically meaningful glycemic control and durable reductions in body weight and SBP over 104 weeks.

description: Due to the lack of test-beams in ground-based gamma-ray astronomy, detector calibration has been a major challenge in this field. However, with the use of Cherenkov ring-images due to cosmic-ray muons and of strong gamma-ray signals, the CAT telescope could be rather well monitored and understood. Here we present a few oustanding aspects of this work.

description: Utilizing observations obtained with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, we examine correlations between the properties of 0.08-22 Hz variable frequency QPOs and the X-ray spectral parameters for the black hole candidates XTE J1550-564 and GRO J1655-40. The spectra were fitted to a model including a multi-temperature blackbody disk and a power-law component. We find that the QPO frequency and amplitude are well correlated with the spectral parameters, although the correlations found for XTE J1550-564 are generally opposite to those for GRO J1655-40. There is one exeption: Both sources exhibit a general increase in the QPO frequency as the disk flux increases (or as the mass accretion rate through the disk increases). In addition, these QPOs are observed only when the power-law component contributes more than 20% of the 2-20 keV flux, which indicates that both the disk and the power-law components are linked to the QPO phenomenon.

description: With robots entering the world of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS), ordering the execution of allocated tasks during run-time becomes crucial. This is so because, in a real world, there can be several physical tasks that use shared resources that need to be executed concurrently. In this paper, we propose a mechanism to solve this issue of ordering task executions within a CPS which inherently handles mutual exclusion. The mechanism caters to a decentralized and distributed CPS comprising nodes such as computers, robots and sensor nodes, and uses mobile software agents that knit through them to aid the execution of the various tasks while also ensuring mutual exclusion of shared resources. The computations, communications and control, are achieved through these mobile agents. Physical execution of the tasks is performed by the robots in an asynchronous and pipelined manner without the use of a clock. The mechanism also features addition and deletion of tasks and insertion and removal of robots facilitating \textit{On-The-Fly Programming}. As an application, a Warehouse Management System as a CPS has been implemented. The paper concludes with the results and discussions on using the mechanism in both emulated and real world environments.

description: Solving the electronic structure problem of molecules and solids to high accuracy is a major challenge in quantum chemistry and condensed matter physics. The rapid emergence and development of quantum computers offer a promising route to systematically tackle this problem. Recent work by Huggins et al.[1] proposed a hybrid quantum-classical quantum Monte Carlo (QC-QMC) algorithm using Clifford shadows to determine the ground state of a Fermionic Hamiltonian. This approach displayed inherent noise resilience and the potential for improved accuracy compared to its purely classical counterpart. Nevertheless, the use of Clifford shadows introduces an exponentially scaling post-processing cost. In this work, we investigate an improved QC-QMC scheme utilizing the recently developed Matchgate shadows technique [2], which removes the aforementioned exponential bottleneck. We observe from experiments on quantum hardware that the use of Matchgate shadows in QC-QMC is inherently noise robust. We show that this noise resilience has a more subtle origin than in the case of Clifford shadows. Nevertheless, we find that classical post-processing, while asymptotically efficient, requires hours of runtime on thousands of classical CPUs for even the smallest chemical systems, presenting a major challenge to the scalability of the algorithm.
Gluon fragmentation into polarized charmonium

description: Gluon fragmentation to $\chicJ(1P)$ followed by single photon emission represents the dominant source of prompt $J/Ψ$'s at the Tevatron for $p_\perp \gtap 6 \GeV$. Since fragmenting gluons are approximately transverse, their products are significantly polarized. We find that gluon fragmentation populates the helicity levels of $\chione$, $\chitwo$ and $J/Ψ$ according to $D_{\chione^{(h=0)}}: D_{\chione^{(|h|=1)}} \simeq 1:1$, $D_{\chitwo^{(h=0)}} : D_{\chitwo^{(|h|=1)}} : D_{\chitwo^{(|h|=2)}} \simeq 1:2.9:6.0$ and $D_{\J^{(h=0)}} : D_{\J^{(|h|=1)}} \simeq 1:3.4$. We also speculate that gluon fragmentation to the radially excited $\chitwo(2P)$ state followed by subsequent radiative decay could represent a large source of $ψ'(2S)$'s and potentially resolve the $ψ'$ deficit problem. A measurement of these states' polarizations would test this idea.

description: Multi-epoch radial velocity measurements of stars can be used to identify stellar, sub-stellar, and planetary-mass companions. Even a small number of observation epochs can be informative about companions, though there can be multiple qualitatively different orbital solutions that fit the data. We have custom-built a Monte Carlo sampler (The Joker) that delivers reliable (and often highly multi-modal) posterior samplings for companion orbital parameters given sparse radial-velocity data. Here we use The Joker to perform a search for companions to 96,231 red-giant stars observed in the APOGEE survey (DR14) with $\geq 3$ spectroscopic epochs. We select stars with probable companions by making a cut on our posterior belief about the amplitude of the stellar radial-velocity variation induced by the orbit. We provide (1) a catalog of 320 companions for which the stellar companion properties can be confidently determined, (2) a catalog of 4,898 stars that likely have companions, but would require more observations to uniquely determine the orbital properties, and (3) posterior samplings for the full orbital parameters for all stars in the parent sample. We show the characteristics of systems with confidently determined companion properties and highlight interesting systems with candidate compact object companions.
