description: Recently, a hybrid percolation transitions (HPT) that exhibits both a discontinuous transition and critical behavior at the same transition point has been observed in diverse complex systems. In spite of considerable effort to develop the theory of HPT, it is still incomplete, particularly when the transition is induced by cluster merging dynamics. Here, we aim to develop a theoretical framework of the HPT induced by such dynamics. We find that two correlation-length exponents are necessary for characterizing the giant cluster and finite clusters, respectively. Finite-size scaling method for the HPT is also introduced. The conventional formula of the fractal dimension in terms of the critical exponents is not valid. Neither the giant nor finite clusters are fractals but they have fractal boundaries.

description: Gary Tait said that the collection of artefacts that he has brought in was from his grandfather John Reid and "lived in a little brown box on the top of his wardrobe", "but he never ever spoke about it". It looks like John Reid was possibly in the Merchant Navy but was transferred to the Royal Navy as he has a Merchant Navy discharge book. John Reid's year of birth is given as 1927 so he was exceptionally young being just 17 in 1944. It was normal practice for people to give an earlier date of birth so they could join up. His discharge book indicates that he was on cable-laying ships. One of John's ships was HMS Abatos which was a Royal Navy establishment responsible for the planning of Operation Pluto, based in Southampton. Operation Pluto (Pipeline Under The Ocean) was an operation to lay cables under the sea which would be used for the Allied invasion of Normandy to supply petrol and oil. It was a top-secret operation the Senior Naval Officer in command of Operation Pluto was John Fenwick Hutchings. This is the person who has signed the letter to John thanking him for his service on Operation Pluto. It seems extremely likely that John was involved in the cable laying ships for Operation Pluto.HMS Gold Drift mentioned in his discharge book was a converted Thames motor barge which was used to lay the HAIS cable for PLUTO and it is possible he was operating on this ship after the war salvaging these cables.There are also photographs of Heligoland in 1947 showing the aftermath of Operation Big Bang the largest man-made non-nuclear explosion which aimed to destroy the German base at Heligoland by using surplus ordnance.After the war, John returned to the Merchant Navy and then worked at a chemical factory in Jarrow.

description: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. Many factors have been shown to contribute to its pathogenesis including genetic and environmental factors. Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCHL1) is also known to be involved in the pathogenesis of PD. We herein modeled the study of UCHL1 in Drosophila melanogaster and investigated its functions in PD. The specific knockdown of the Drosophila ortholog of UCHL1 (dUCH) in dopaminergic neurons (DA neurons) led to the underdevelopment and/or degeneration of these neurons, specifically in DL1 DA neuron cluster in the larval brain lobe and PPM2, PPM3, PPL2ab, and VUM DA neuron clusters in the adult brain. These defects were followed by a shortage of dopamine in the brain, which subsequently resulted in locomotor dysfunction. The degeneration of DA neurons in dUCH knockdown adult brain, which occurred progressively and severely during the course of aging, mimics the epidemiology of PD. DA neuron and locomotor defects were rescued when dUCH knockdown flies were treated with vitamin C, a well-known antioxidant. These results suggest that dUCH knockdown fly is a promising model for studying the pathogenesis and epidemiology of PD as well as the screening of potential antioxidants for PD therapeutics.

description: Blog is becoming an increasingly popular media for information publishing. Besides the main content, most of blog pages nowadays also contain noisy information such as advertisements etc. Removing these unrelated elements can improves user experience, but also can better adapt the content to various devices such as mobile phones. Though template-based extractors are highly accurate, they may incur expensive cost in that a large number of template need to be developed and they will fail once the template is updated. To address these issues, we present a novel template-independent content extractor for blog pages. First, we convert a blog page into a DOM-Tree, where all elements including the title and body blocks in a page correspond to subtrees. Then we construct subtree candidate set for the title and the body blocks respectively, and extract both spatial and content features for elements contained in the subtree. SVM classifiers for the title and the body blocks are trained using these features. Finally, the classifiers are used to extract the main content from blog pages. We test our extractor on 2,250 blog pages crawled from nine blog sites with obviously different styles and templates. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of our extractor.

description: In this work, we propose viable and efficient strategies for stabilized parametrized advection dominated problems, with random inputs. In particular, we investigate the combination of wRB (weighted reduced basis) method for stochastic parametrized problems with stabilized reduced basis method, which is the integration of classical stabilization methods (SUPG, in our case) in the Offline--Online structure of the RB method. Moreover, we introduce a reduction method that selectively enables online stabilization; this leads to a sensible reduction of computational costs, while keeping a very good accuracy with respect to high fidelity solutions. We present numerical test cases to assess the performance of the proposed methods in steady and unsteady problems related to heat transfer phenomena.

description: In this study, the remediation of Ni(II) ions in solution using sugarcane bagasse (SCB), extracted cellulose (EC), and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) obtained by chemical modification of sugarcane bagasse as effective biosorbents was carried out. The biosorbents were characterized by X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to confirm the physical and chemical properties and surface morphology of the biosorbents. The adsorption capacities showed that CMC (125.7 mg/g) was more effective than EC (25.4 mg/g) and crude SCB (41.9 mg/g). Kinetic studies of the adsorption process analyzed using the non-linear pseudo-first order (PFO) and pseudo-second order (PSO) models show that the order of the adsorption follows PSO on SCB and EC but PFO on CMC. The equilibrium process studied on the non-linear Langmuir, Freundlich, Hill, and Redlich-Peterson models showed that all models were applicable, but the Hill isotherm was the most suitable. The favorability of adsorption was confirmed for all biosorbents by the values of the separation factor RL, which was in the order of 0 RL <1. Reusability of the CMC as a better performing adsorbent proved that the adsorbent could be recycled and that the effect of interfering ions was minimal.

description: We have explored a new mechanism for switching magnetism and superconductivity in a magnetically frustrated iron-based superconductor using spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy (SPSTM). Our SPSTM study on single crystal Sr$_2$VO$_3$FeAs shows that a spin-polarized tunneling current can switch the Fe-layer magnetism into a non-trivial $C_4$ (2$\times$2) order, not achievable by thermal excitation with unpolarized current. Our tunneling spectroscopy study shows that the induced $C_4$ (2$\times$2) order has characteristics of plaquette antiferromagnetic order in Fe layer and strongly suppressed superconductivity. Also, thermal agitation beyond the bulk Fe spin ordering temperature erases the $C_4$ state. These results suggest a new possibility of switching local superconductivity by changing the symmetry of magnetic order with spin-polarized and unpolarized tunneling currents in iron-based superconductors.

description: The removal of molybdenum from water is essential for mitigating the environmental and health impacts of industrial contamination. This study presents a strategy to enhance the sorption capability of molybdenum by introducing functional groups and optimizing structural properties of aluminum-based materials. AlOHCO₃ and LiAl-LDH exhibited high sorption capacities of 260 mg/g and 320 mg/g, respectively, significantly surpassing the capacity of AlOOH (184 mg/g). The improvements are attributed to the incorporation of CO32- in both materials and the interlayer structure in LiAl-LDH, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. The primary sorption mechanisms for AlOOH and AlOHCO₃ involved electrostatic interactions and ion complexation. Additionally, coordination effects were observed for LiAl-LDH. These aluminum-based materials exhibit significant potential for practical applications in water treatment, particularly for addressing molybdenum contamination.
3D Binary Signatures

Subjects: subject: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (cs.CV)

description: In this paper, we propose a novel binary descriptor for 3D point clouds. The proposed descriptor termed as 3D Binary Signature (3DBS) is motivated from the matching efficiency of the binary descriptors for 2D images. 3DBS describes keypoints from point clouds with a binary vector resulting in extremely fast matching. The method uses keypoints from standard keypoint detectors. The descriptor is built by constructing a Local Reference Frame and aligning a local surface patch accordingly. The local surface patch constitutes of identifying nearest neighbours based upon an angular constraint among them. The points are ordered with respect to the distance from the keypoints. The normals of the ordered pairs of these keypoints are projected on the axes and the relative magnitude is used to assign a binary digit. The vector thus constituted is used as a signature for representing the keypoints. The matching is done by using hamming distance. We show that 3DBS outperforms state of the art descriptors on various evaluation metrics.

description: Study and Code DescriptionStudy Overview: This study investigates the temporal characteristics of perception, specifically testing Stroud’s perceptual moment theory, which suggests that perception occurs in discrete moments rather than continuously. Using a psychophysical paradigm, we examined asynchrony detection in human participants by presenting paired stimuli (two red LEDs) with varying stimulus-onset asynchronies (SOAs). The results indicate that perception is temporally discretized, with the estimated duration of one perceptual moment being approximately 57.2 ms.Methodology: Fourteen healthy volunteers (mean age 21.5 ± 3.8 years) participated in the study. A microcontroller (Arduino Uno) was programmed to randomly present 280 paired stimuli events with SOAs ranging from -65 ms to 65 ms in 5 ms increments. Participants indicated which LED (left or right) was perceived to light up first or if they could not determine the order. The data was analyzed using statistical modeling in R, revealing a continuous increase in asynchrony detection with increasing SOAs, rather than a fixed threshold.Code Description: The provided code includes:R scripts for analyzing participant responses, fitting statistical models (generalized linear mixed models), and visualizing results.A CSV dataset in zip file containing raw participant responses from 14 subjects and 10 subjects for validation and SOA values.Data and Code Availability: The full dataset and analysis code are available in our repository to facilitate transparency and reproducibility. Researchers can use and modify the scripts for further studies on temporal perception and psychophysics.By making our data and code publicly available, we aim to contribute to a better understanding of perceptual processing and provide a foundation for future research in the field.

description: In a power grid, the electricity supply and demand must be balanced at all times to maintain the system's frequency. In practice, the grid operator achieves this balance by procuring frequency reserves in an ahead-of-time market setting. During runtime, these reserves are then dispatched whenever there is an imbalance in the grid. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in engaging electricity consumers, such as plug-in electric vehicles or buildings, to offer such frequency reserves by exploiting their flexibility in power consumption. In this work, we focus on an aggregation of buildings that places a joint bid on a reserve market. The resulting shared decision is modeled as a large-scale optimization problem. Our main contribution is to show that the aggregation can make its decision in a computationally efficient and conceptually meaningful way, using the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). The proposed approach exhibits several attractive features that include (i) the computational burden is distributed between the buildings; (ii) the setup naturally provides privacy and flexibility; (iii) the iterative algorithm can be stopped at any time, providing a feasible (though suboptimal) solution; and (iv) the algorithm provides the foundation for a reward distribution scheme that strengthens the group.

description: We present a time-dependent density-matrix renormalization group investigation of the quantum distillation process within the Fermi--Hubbard model on a quasi-1D ladder geometry. The term distillation refers to the dynamical, spatial separation of singlons and doublons in the sudden expansion of interacting particles in an optical lattice, i.e., the release of a cloud of atoms from a trapping potential. Remarkably, quantum distillation can lead to a contraction of the doublon cloud, resulting in an increased density of the doublons in the core region compared to the initial state. As a main result, we show that this phenomenon is not limited to chains that were previously studied. Interestingly, there are additional dynamical processes on the two-leg ladder such as density oscillations and selftrapping of defects that lead to a less efficient distillation process. An investigation of the time evolution starting from product states provides an explanation for this behaviour. Initial product states are also considered, since in optical lattice experiments such states are often used as the initial setup. We propose configurations that lead to a fast and efficient quantum distillation.

A unified approach to the thermodynamics and quantum scaling functions of one-dimensional strongly attractive $SU(w)$ Fermi Gases

description: In this letter we present a unified derivation of the pressure equation of states, thermodynamics and scaling functions for the one-dimensional (1D) strongly attractive Fermi gases with $SU(w)$ symmetry. These physical quantities provide a rigorous understanding on a universality class of quantum criticality characterised by the critical exponents $z=2$ and correlation length exponent $ν=1/2$. Such a universality class of quantum criticality can occur when the Fermi sea of one branch of charge bound states starts to fill or become gapped at zero temperature. The quantum critical cone can be determined through the double peaks in specific heat which serve to mark two crossover temperatures fanning out from the critical point. Our method opens to further study on quantum phases and phase transitions in strongly interacting fermions with large $SU(w)$ and non-$SU(w)$ symmetries in one dimension.

description: Exposed scarps images and ice-penetrating radar measurements in the North Polar Layered Deposits (NPLD) of Mars show alternating layers that provide an archive of past climate oscillations, that are thought to be linked to orbital variations, akin to Milankovitch cycles on Earth. We use the Laboratoire de Meteorologie Dynamique (LMD) Martian Global Climate Model (GCM) to study paleoclimate states to enable a better interpretation of the NPLD physical and chemical stratigraphy. When a tropical ice reservoir is present, water vapor transport from the tropics to the poles at low obliquity is modulated by the intensity of summer. At times of low and relatively constant obliquity, the flux still varies due to other orbital elements, promoting polar layer formation. Ice migrates from the tropics towards the poles in two stages. First, when surface ice is present in the tropics, and second, when the equatorial deposit is exhausted, from ice that was previously deposited in mid-high latitudes. The polar accumulation rate is significantly higher when tropical ice is available, forming thicker layers per orbital cycle. However, the majority of the NPLD is sourced from ice that temporary resided in the mid-high latitudes and the layers become thinner as the source location moves poleward. The migration stages imprint different D/H ratios in different sections in the PLDs. The NPLD is isotopically depleted compared to the SPLD in all simulations. Thus we predict the D/H ratio of the atmosphere in contact with NPLD upper layers is biased relative to the average global ice reservoirs.

description: The main result of this paper is to extend from $\Q$ to each of the nine imaginary quadratic fields of class number one a result of Serre (1987) and Mestre-Oesterlé (1989), namely that if $E$ is an elliptic curve of prime conductor then either $E$ or a $2$-, $3$- or $5$-isogenous curve has prime discriminant. For four of the nine fields, the theorem holds with no change, while for the remaining five fields the discriminant of a curve with prime conductor is either prime or the square of a prime. The proof is conditional in two ways: first that the curves are modular, so are associated to suitable Bianchi newforms; and second that a certain level-lowering conjecture holds for Bianchi newforms. We also classify all elliptic curves of prime power conductor and non-trivial torsion over each of the nine fields: in the case of $2$-torsion, we find that such curves either have CM or with a small finite number of exceptions arise from a family analogous to the Setzer-Neumann family over $\Q$.

description: John started as a gunner (1447983) with No 6 Detachment 461 Battery and by the end of the war was promoted to Captain with life membership of the Royal Artillery. John was previously a solicitor based in Chichester. He married in 1939 just before the outbreak of war. He realised that there was going to be a war and joined up. His wife was working for the Red Cross in the war.John was in the searchlights section based in the South Downs. His wife used to go up about once a week to take him fish and chips.When the Canadians came over to the UK they were based around Witley, Surry and John joined them there. Towards the end of the war John was part of Field Marshal Montgomery's outfit and he was a British Advocate. He received a card from Montgomery thanking him as part of the team.From the South Downs, John moved to Yorkshire and was based on the moors outside Whitby. For more, see attached documents.

description: Diffusion-based molecular communication (MC) systems experience significant reliability losses. To boost the reliability, an MC scheme where multiple receivers (RXs) work cooperatively to decide the signal of a transmitter (TX) by sending the same type of molecules to a fusion center (FC) is proposed in this paper. The FC observes the total number of molecules received and compares this number with a threshold to determine the TX's signal. The proposed scheme is more bio-realistic and requires relatively low computational complexity compared to existing cooperative schemes where the RXs send and the FC recognizes different types of molecules. Asymmetric and symmetric topologies are considered, and closed-form expressions are derived for the global error probability for both topologies. Results show that the trade-off for simplified computations leads to a slight reduction in error performance, compared to the existing cooperative schemes.

description: We study mirror symmetry on the singular locus of the Hitchin system at two levels. Firstly, by covering it by (supports of) $(BBB)$-branes, corresponding to Higgs bundles reducing their structure group to the Levi subgroup of some parabolic subgroup $\mathrm{P}$, whose conjectural dual $(BAA)$-branes we describe. Heuristically speaking, the latter are given by Higgs bundles reducing their structure group to the unipotent radical of $\mathrm{P}$. Secondly, when $\mathrm{P}$ is a Borel subgroup, we are able to construct a family of hyperholomorphic bundles on the $(BBB)$-brane, and study the variation of the dual under this choice. We give evidence of both families of branes being dual under mirror symmetry via an integral functor induced by Fourier-Mukai in the moduli stack of Higgs bundles.

description: Existing works for extracting navigation objects from webpages focus on navigation menus, so as to reveal the information architecture of the site. However, web 2.0 sites such as social networks, e-commerce portals etc. are making the understanding of the content structure in a web site increasingly difficult. Dynamic and personalized elements such as top stories, recommended list in a webpage are vital to the understanding of the dynamic nature of web 2.0 sites. To better understand the content structure in web 2.0 sites, in this paper we propose a new extraction method for navigation objects in a webpage. Our method will extract not only the static navigation menus, but also the dynamic and personalized page-specific navigation lists. Since the navigation objects in a webpage naturally come in blocks, we first cluster hyperlinks into different blocks by exploiting spatial locations of hyperlinks, the hierarchical structure of the DOM-tree and the hyperlink density. Then we identify navigation objects from those blocks using the SVM classifier with novel features such as anchor text lengths etc. Experiments on real-world data sets with webpages from various domains and styles verified the effectiveness of our method.

Weak Seasonality on Temperate Exoplanets Around Low-mass Stars

description: Planets with non-zero obliquity and/or orbital eccentricity experience seasonal variations of stellar irradiation at local latitudes. The extent of the atmospheric response can be crudely estimated by the ratio between the orbital timescale and the atmospheric radiative timescale. Given a set of atmospheric parameters, we show that this ratio depends mostly on the stellar properties and is independent of orbital distance and planetary equilibrium temperature. For Jupiter-like atmospheres, this ratio is $\ll1$ for planets around very-low-mass M dwarfs and $\gtrsim1$ when the stellar mass is greater than about 0.6 solar mass. Complications can arise from various factors, including varying atmospheric metallicity, clouds, and atmospheric dynamics. Given the eccentricity and obliquity, the seasonal response is expected to be systematically weaker for gaseous exoplanets around low-mass stars and stronger for those around more massive stars. The amplitude and phase lag of atmospheric seasonal variations as a function of host stellar mass are quantified by idealized analytic models. At the infrared emission level in the photosphere, the relative amplitudes of thermal flux and temperature perturbations are negligible, and their phase lags are closed to $-90^{\circ}$ for Jupiter-like planets around very-low-mass stars. The relative amplitudes and phase lags increase gradually with increasing stellar mass. With a particular stellar mass, the relative amplitude and phase lag decrease from low to high infrared optical depth. We also present numerical calculations for a better illustration of the seasonal behaviors. Lastly, we discuss implications for the atmospheric circulation and future atmospheric characterization of exoplanets in systems with different stellar masses.

description: The Reverend John Patton was appointed to Ocean Road Congregational Church, South Shields in 1937. He lived with his wife Anna and daughter Evelyn at 27 Marine Approach, South Shields. Evelyn wrote a 3 page article about her father's experiences during World War Two. Because of a childhood illness he was not called up for war service. "Once he was walking by the lake in Marine Park a bomb dropped and he instinctively crouched right down. He was unharmed. But the raid killed all the swans and the impact was so immense. Muddy water was spewed up, splattering windows of houses nearby. It was awful. We were cleaning windows for ages afterwards."In 1941 John Patton accepted an invitation to become the Chaplain for the British Sailors' Society based in North Shields and covering an area from Berwick down to Hull. One of his roles was to break the bad news of the loss of a relative. In an article written for the British Sailors' Society it is reported:"Mr. Patton says that, out of his twenty years' experience, the work which comes most vividly to mind is the ever-recurring task of breaking the terrible news of loss of life at sea. North and South Shields lost more men at sea during the war than did any other comparable area in the British Isles, and in that time Mr. Patton visited more than one thousand homes to carry out his sad duty. In one case four visits were made to the same address at intervals of a few days. Three sons (including twins) and the father were lost at sea. No wonder that the distracted woman, when asked how she had borne this, replied "It seems that God helps you without your knowing it!!' In one weekend Mr. Patton covered two hundred miles, visiting thirty homes with sad news, from Middlesboro' to Berwick on the coast, and inland to Alston. Mr. Patton says that no matter how often the task recurred he could never become accustomed to it and always felt that he was personally involved in the grief and suffering of those most nearly concerned."In 1946 he went to Hamburg with the British Sailors' Society and met with other members of the clergy. The Reverend John Patton died in 1967.

description: Two triangle meshes are conformally equivalent if for any pair of incident triangles the absolute values of the corresponding cross-ratios of the four vertices agree. Such a pair can be considered as preimage and image of a discrete conformal map. In this article we study discrete conformal maps which are defined on parts of a triangular lattice $T$ with strictly acute angles. That is, $T$ is an infinite triangulation of the plane with congruent strictly acute triangles. A smooth conformal map $f$ can be approximated on a compact subset by such discrete conformal maps $f^\varepsilon$, defined on a part of $\varepsilon T$ for $\varepsilon>0$ small enough, see [U. Bücking, Approximation of conformal mappings using conformally equivalent triangular lattices, in "Advances in Discrete Differential Geometry" (A.I. Bobenko ed.), Springer (2016), 133--149]. We improve this result and show that the convergence is in fact in $C^\infty$. Furthermore, we describe how the cross-ratios of the four vertices for pairs of incident triangles are related to the Schwarzian derivative of $f$.
