Subjects: ΩNIMA • Topodynamic Therapy • Occupational Therapy Innovation • Collapse Recovery • Resonance-Based Healing • Trauma-Informed Rehabilitation • Existential Therapy • Waveform Model of Self • Recursive Integration • Functional-Existential Framework • Kyung Up Moon • Rehasolution • Coherence Architecture • Memory Loop Intervention • Nonlinear Healing

description: This document introduces a transformative framework in occupational therapy—ΩNIMA—developed by Kyung Up Moon, founder of Rehasolution. Moving beyond traditional functional approaches, ΩNIMA integrates existential wave dynamics to support clients recovering from trauma, loss, and developmental disruptions. The method models human experience through topodynamic flow, characterized by phases of collapse (Δ), recursive memory loops (∮), reintegration (Φ), and the emergence of a coherent self (Ω).

This framework repositions occupational therapists not just as function restorers, but as architects of coherence, helping individuals retune their disrupted waveforms into meaningful resonance.

The document includes clinical applications, case studies, theoretical underpinnings, and tools for implementation, making it suitable for therapists, educators, and researchers seeking a deeper integration of neuroscience, narrative, and embodied healing.

description: A Type IIn supernova (SN) is dominated by the interaction of SN ejecta with the circumstellar medium (CSM). Some SNe IIn (e.g., SN 2006jd) have episodes of re-brightening ("bumps") in their light curves. We present iPTF13z, a SN IIn discovered by the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) and characterised by several bumps in its light curve. We analyse this peculiar behaviour trying to infer the properties of the CSM and of the SN explosion, as well as the nature of its progenitor star. We obtained multi-band optical photometry for over 1000 days after discovery with the P48 and P60 telescopes at Palomar Observatory. We obtained low-resolution optical spectra in the same period. We did an archival search for progenitor outbursts. We analyse our photometry and spectra, and compare iPTF13z to other SNe IIn. A simple analytical model is used to estimate properties of the CSM. iPTF13z was a SN IIn showing a light curve with five bumps during its decline phase. The bumps had amplitudes between 0.4 and 0.9 mag and durations between 20 and 120 days. The most prominent bumps appeared in all our different optical bands. The spectra showed typical SN IIn characteristics, with emission lines of H$α$ (with broad component FWHM ~$10^{3}-10^{4} ~{\rm ~km ~s^{-1}}$ and narrow component FWHM ~$10^2 \rm ~km ~s^{-1}$) and He I, but also with Fe II, Ca II, Na I D and H$β$ P-Cygni profiles (with velocities of ~$10^{3}$ ${\rm ~km ~s^{-1}}$). A pre-explosion outburst was identified lasting $\gtrsim 50$ days, with $M_r \approx -15$ mag around 210 days before discovery. Large, variable progenitor mass-loss rates (~> 0.01 $M_{\odot} \rm ~yr^{-1}$) and CSM densities (~> 10$^{-16}$ g cm$^{-3}$) are derived. We suggest that the light curve bumps of iPTF13z arose from SN ejecta interacting with denser regions in the CSM, possibly produced by the eruptions of a luminous blue variable star.

description: The Minimum Covariance Determinant (MCD) approach robustly estimates the location and scatter matrix using the subset of given size with lowest sample covariance determinant. Its main drawback is that it cannot be applied when the dimension exceeds the subset size. We propose the Minimum Regularized Covariance Determinant (MRCD) approach, which differs from the MCD in that the scatter matrix is a convex combination of a target matrix and the sample covariance matrix of the subset. A data-driven procedure sets the weight of the target matrix, so that the regularization is only used when needed. The MRCD estimator is defined in any dimension, is well-conditioned by construction and preserves the good robustness properties of the MCD. We prove that so-called concentration steps can be performed to reduce the MRCD objective function, and we exploit this fact to construct a fast algorithm. We verify the accuracy and robustness of the MRCD estimator in a simulation study and illustrate its practical use for outlier detection and regression analysis on real-life high-dimensional data sets in chemistry and criminology.

description: We describe supersymmetric A-branes and B-branes in open N=(2,2) dynamically gauged nonlinear sigma models (GNLSM), placing emphasis on toric manifold target spaces. For a subset of toric manifolds, these equivariant branes have a mirror description as branes in gauged Landau-Ginzburg models with neutral matter. We then study correlation functions in the topological A-twisted version of the GNLSM, and identify their values with open Hamiltonian Gromov-Witten invariants. Supersymmetry breaking can occur in the A-twisted GNLSM due to nonperturbative open symplectic vortices, and we canonically BRST quantize the mirror theory to analyze this phenomenon.

description: Nonlinear dynamics of the electron-cyclotron instability driven by the electron $\mathbf{E\times B}$ current in crossed electric and magnetic field is studied. In nonlinear regime the instability proceeds by developing a large amplitude coherent wave driven by the energy input from the fundamental cyclotron resonance. Further evolution shows the formation of the long wavelength envelope akin to the modulational instability. Simultaneously, the ion density shows the development of high-k content responsible for wave focusing and sharp peaks on the periodic cnoidal wave structure. It is shown that the anomalous electron transport (along the direction of the applied electric field) is dominated by the long wavelength part of the turbulent spectrum.

A decentralized proximal-gradient method with network independent step-sizes and separated convergence rates

description: This paper proposes a novel proximal-gradient algorithm for a decentralized optimization problem with a composite objective containing smooth and non-smooth terms. Specifically, the smooth and nonsmooth terms are dealt with by gradient and proximal updates, respectively. The proposed algorithm is closely related to a previous algorithm, PG-EXTRA \cite{shi2015proximal}, but has a few advantages. First of all, agents use uncoordinated step-sizes, and the stable upper bounds on step-sizes are independent of network topologies. The step-sizes depend on local objective functions, and they can be as large as those of the gradient descent. Secondly, for the special case without non-smooth terms, linear convergence can be achieved under the strong convexity assumption. The dependence of the convergence rate on the objective functions and the network are separated, and the convergence rate of the new algorithm is as good as one of the two convergence rates that match the typical rates for the general gradient descent and the consensus averaging. We provide numerical experiments to demonstrate the efficacy of the introduced algorithm and validate our theoretical discoveries.

description: The recent experimental realization of spin-orbit coupling for ultracold atomic gases provides a powerful platform for exploring many interesting quantum phenomena. In these studies, spin represents spin vector (spin-1/2 or spin-1) and orbit represents linear momentum. Here we propose a scheme to realize a new type of spin-tensor--momentum coupling (STMC) in spin-1 ultracold atomic gases. We study the ground state properties of interacting Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with STMC and find interesting new types of stripe superfluid phases and multicritical points for phase transitions. Furthermore, STMC makes it possible to study quantum states with dynamical stripe orders that display density modulation with a long tunable period and high visibility, paving the way for direct experimental observation of a new dynamical supersolid-like state.. Our scheme for generating STMC can be generalized to other systems and may open the door for exploring novel quantum physics and device applications.

In particular, the efficiency of one-photon Fock state excitation of the outgoing wave packet and the spatio-temporal shape of the wave packet are investigated. It is shown that for given shape of the emitter--cavity interaction, adjusting the shape of the pump pulse renders it possible to generate the emission of one-photon Fock state wave packets of desired shape with high efficiency.

description: We show that the Duflo-Serganova functor on the category of finite-dimensional modules over a finite-dimensional contragredient Lie superalgebra induces a ring homomorphism on a natural quotient of the Grothendieck ring, which is isomorphic to the ring of characters. We realize this homomorphism as a certain evaluation of functions related to the supersymmetry property. We use this realization to describe the kernel and image of the homomorphism induced by the Duflo-Serganova functor.

description: The chaotic situation of today’s VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) and TUNA (Turbulent, Uncertain, Novel, Ambiguous) world is bringing more and more active and passive reforms, including positive and negative aspects, that reform business models. Educational institutions are not exceptional. Regarding the nature of educational institutions’ operation in today’s rapidly changing context, school leaders also need to raise concerns similar to those of business managers from other industries: “How do their institutions continuously renovate to adapt to tomorrow’s world?” Thus, based on organisational learning theories, this project aims to establish a framework to evaluate educational leadership’s influence on the organisational knowledge circulation effectiveness within the K-12 education context. The study combines a structured literature review, bibliometrics analysis, and high-order structural equation model analysis on the survey for teachers among Vietnamese public and private K-12 schools. First, this project proposed and validated a toolset to measure educational leadership as a combination of principalship and teacher leadership. Second, it revealed new insights about the impacts of educational leadership, knowledge circulation, and school culture on teachers’ job satisfaction. The project also offers insights into teachers’ professional development activities across various school types and grade levels in Vietnam, which contribute to further continuous renovation of Vietnamese K-12 schools, and diversify the corpus of educational leadership studies. This project’s results extended the applications of organisational learning theories in K-12 education, as well as can be adopted to establish further knowledge management frameworks in other settings such as higher education or vocational education.
Characterizing photon number statistics using conjugate optical homodyne detection

description: We study the problem of determining the photon number statistics of an unknown quantum state by simultaneously measuring conjugate quadratures with double homodyne detectors. Classically, the sum of the squared outputs of the two homodyne detectors is proportional to the intensity (thus the photon number) of the input light. Quantum mechanically, due to vacuum noise, the above photon number measurement is intrinsically noisy. We quantify the information gain in a single-shot measurement and discuss potential applications of this technology in quantum key distribution. We also show that the photon number statistics can be recovered in repeated measurements on an ensemble of identical input states without scanning the phase of the input state or randomizing the phase of the local oscillator used in homodyne detection.

description: We address the dynamics of a bosonic system coupled to either a bosonic or a magnetic environment, and derive a set of sufficient conditions that allow one to describe the dynamics in terms of the effective interaction with a classical fluctuating field. We find that for short interaction times the dynamics of the open system is described by a Gaussian noise map for several different interaction models and independently on the temperature of the environment. In order to go beyond a qualitative understanding of the origin and physical meaning of the above short-time constraint, we take a general viewpoint and, based on an algebraic approach, suggest that any quantum environment can be described by classical fields whenever global symmetries lead to the definition of environmental operators that remain well defined when increasing the size, i.e. the number of dynamical variables, of the environment. In the case of the bosonic environment this statement is exactly demonstrated via a constructive procedure that explicitly shows why a large number of environmental dynamical variables and, necessarily, global symmetries, entail the set of conditions derived in the first part of the work.

description: We generalize the real and chiral $ {\cal N} =2 $ super Schrödinger algebras to ${\mathbb Z}_2 \times {\mathbb Z}_2$-graded Lie superalgebras. This is done by $D$-module presentation and as a consequence, the $D$-module presentations of ${\mathbb Z}_2 \times {\mathbb Z}_2$-graded superalgebras are identical to the ones of super Schrödinger algebras. We then generalize the calculus over Grassmann number to ${\mathbb Z}_2 \times {\mathbb Z}_2 $ setting. Using it and the standard technique of Lie theory, we obtain a vector field realization of ${\mathbb Z}_2 \times {\mathbb Z}_2$-graded superalgebras. A vector field realization of the ${\mathbb Z}_2 \times {\mathbb Z}_2 $ generalization of ${\cal N} = 1 $ super Schrödinger algebra is also presented.

description: We study the influence of a charged-Higgs on the excess of branching fraction ratio, $R_M = BR(\bar B \to M τ\barν_τ)/BR(\bar B \to M \ell \bar ν_\ell)$ $(M=D, D^*)$, in a generic two-Higgs-doublet model. In order to investigate the lepton polarization, the detailed decay amplitudes with lepton helicity are given. When the charged-Higgs is used to resolve excesses, it is found that two independent Yukawa couplings are needed to explain the $R_D$ and $R_{D^*}$ anomalies. We show that when the upper limit of $BR(B_c \to τ\bar ν_τ)<30\%$ is included, $R_D$ can be significantly enhanced while $R_{D^*}<0.27$. With the $BR(B_c\to τ\bar ν_τ)$ constraint, we find that the $τ$-lepton polarizations can be still affected by the charged-Higgs effects, where the standard model (SM) predictions are obtained as: $P^τ_{D} \approx 0.324$ and $P^τ_{D^*}\approx -0.500$, and they can be enhanced to be $P^τ_{D} \approx 0.5$ and $P^τ_{D^*} \approx -0.41$ by the charged-Higgs. The integrated lepton froward-backward asymmetry (FBA) is also studied, where the SM result is $\bar A^{D^{(*)},τ}_{FB} \approx -0.359(0.064)$, and they can be enhanced (decreased) to be $\bar A^{D^{(*)},τ}_{FB} \approx -0.33 (0.02)$.

description: We state a sufficient condition for the square of a locally finite graph to contain a Hamilton circle, extending a result of Harary and Schwenk about finite graphs. We also give an alternative proof of an extension to locally finite graphs of the result of Chartrand and Harary that a finite graph not containing $K^4$ or $K_{2,3}$ as a minor is Hamiltonian if and only if it is $2$-connected. We show furthermore that, if a Hamilton circle exists in such a graph, then it is unique and spanned by the $2$-contractible edges. The third result of this paper is a construction of a graph which answers positively the question of Mohar whether regular infinite graphs with a unique Hamilton circle exist.

description: Ahan Datta interviews Tuhin Datta, portraying energy consumption and transportation dynamics in India from his youth in the 1980s. Growing up in a village without electricity or gas, Tuhin's family relied on wood, coal, and cow dung cakes for cooking, using a traditional chulo, or cooking area. Gas became accessible through offshore drilling and households transitioned to gas cylinders, a shift that marked a significant change in domestic energy use. For transportation, Tuhin went from walking and biking to using a gas-powered moped and later, battery-powered scooters. His experiences abroad highlight the contrast between public transportation systems in countries like Australia, with reliable buses, and the U.S., where personal vehicles dominate. Tuhin also reflects on the societal impact of media evolution, noting how television and smartphones shifted entertainment from communal to individual experiences, while climate change has increased the demand for air conditioning in India.

description: The interaction of a single photon with an individual two-level system is the textbook example of quantum electrodynamics. Achieving strong coupling in this system so far required confinement of the light field inside resonators or waveguides. Here, we demonstrate strong coherent coupling between a single Rydberg superatom, consisting of thousands of atoms behaving as a single two-level system due to the Rydberg blockade, and a propagating light pulse containing only a few photons. The strong light-matter coupling in combination with the direct access to the outgoing field allows us to observe for the first time the effect of the interactions on the driving field at the single photon level. We find that all our results are in quantitative agreement with the predictions of the theory of a single two-level system strongly coupled to a single quantized propagating light mode. The demonstrated coupling strength opens the way towards interfacing photonic and atomic qubits and preparation of propagating non-classical states of light, two crucial building blocks in future quantum networks.

Asymmetric thermal-relic dark matter: Sommerfeld-enhanced freeze-out, annihilation signals and unitarity bounds

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Dark matter that possesses a particle-antiparticle asymmetry and has thermalised in the early universe, requires a larger annihilation cross-section compared to symmetric dark matter, in order to deplete the dark antiparticles and account for the observed dark matter density. The annihilation cross-section determines the residual symmetric component of dark matter, which may give rise to annihilation signals during CMB and inside haloes today. We consider dark matter with long-range interactions, in particular dark matter coupled to a light vector or scalar force mediator. We compute the couplings required to attain a final antiparticle-to-particle ratio after the thermal freeze-out of the annihilation processes in the early universe, and then estimate the late-time annihilation signals. We show that, due to the Sommerfeld enhancement, highly asymmetric dark matter with long-range interactions can have a significant annihilation rate, potentially larger than symmetric dark matter of the same mass with contact interactions. We discuss caveats in this estimation, relating to the formation of stable bound states. Finally, we consider the non-relativistic partial-wave unitarity bound on the inelastic cross-section, we discuss why it can be realised only by long-range interactions, and showcase the importance of higher partial waves in this regime of large inelasticity. We derive upper bounds on the mass of symmetric and asymmetric thermal-relic dark matter for s-wave and p-wave annihilation, and exhibit how these bounds strengthen as the dark asymmetry increases.

description: We study the topology and geometry of compact complex manifolds associated to Anosov representations of surface groups and other hyperbolic groups in a complex semisimple Lie group $G$. These manifolds are obtained as quotients of the domains of discontinuity in generalized flag varieties $G/P$ constructed by Kapovich-Leeb-Porti (arXiv:1306.3837), and in some cases by Guichard-Wienhard (arXiv:1108.0733). For $G$-Fuchsian representations and their Anosov deformations, where $G$ is simple, we compute the homology of the domains of discontinuity and of the quotient manifolds. For $G$-Fuchsian and $G$-quasi-Fuchsian representations in simple $G$ of rank at least two, we show that the quotient manifolds are not Kähler. We also describe the Picard groups of these quotient manifolds, compute the cohomology of line bundles on them, and show that for $G$ of sufficiently large rank these manifolds admit nonconstant meromorphic functions. In a final section, we apply our topological results to several explicit families of domains and derive closed formulas for topological invariants in some cases. We also show that the quotient manifold for a $G$-Fuchsian representation in $\mathrm{PSL}_3(\mathbb{C})$ is a fiber bundle over a surface, and we conjecture that this holds for all simple $G$.

description: Impurities and defects are ubiquitous in topological insulators (TIs) and thus understanding the effects of disorder on electronic transport is important. We calculate the distribution of the random conductance fluctuations $P(G)$ of disordered 2D TI wires modeled by the Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (BHZ) Hamiltonian with realistic parameters. As we show, the disorder drives the TIs into different regimes: metal (M), quantum spin-Hall insulator (QSHI), and ordinary insulator (OI). By varying the disorder strength and Fermi energy, we calculate analytically and numerically $P(G)$ across the entire phase diagram. The conductance fluctuations follow the statistics of the unitary universality class $β=2$. At strong disorder and high energy, however, the size of the fluctutations $δG$ reaches the universal value of the orthogonal symmetry class ($β=1$). At the QSHI-M and QSHI-OI crossovers, the interplay between edge and bulk states plays a key role in the statistical properties of the conductance.

description: We prove a homological mirror symmetry equivalence between an $A$-brane category for the pair of pants, computed as a wrapped microlocal sheaf category, and a $B$-brane category for a mirror LG model, understood as a category of matrix factorizations. The equivalence improves upon prior results in two ways: it intertwines evident affine Weyl group symmetries on both sides, and it exhibits the relation of wrapped microlocal sheaves along different types of Lagrangian skeleta for the same hypersurface. The equivalence proceeds through the construction of a combinatorial realization of the $A$-model via arboreal singularities. The constructions here represent the start of a program to generalize to higher dimensions many of the structures which have appeared in topological approaches to Fukaya categories of surfaces.

description: Item recommendation task predicts a personalized ranking over a set of items for each individual user. One paradigm is the rating-based methods that concentrate on explicit feedbacks and hence face the difficulties in collecting them. Meanwhile, the ranking-based methods are presented with rated items and then rank the rated above the unrated. This paradigm takes advantage of widely available implicit feedback. It, however, usually ignores a kind of important information: item reviews. Item reviews not only justify the preferences of users, but also help alleviate the cold-start problem that fails the collaborative filtering. In this paper, we propose two novel and simple models to integrate item reviews into Bayesian personalized ranking. In each model, we make use of text features extracted from item reviews using word embeddings. On top of text features we uncover the review dimensions that explain the variation in users' feedback and these review factors represent a prior preference of users. Experiments on six real-world data sets show the benefits of leveraging item reviews on ranking prediction. We also conduct analyses to understand the proposed models.

description: We develop an algorithm that forecasts cascading events, by employing a Green's function scheme on the basis of the self-exciting point process model. This method is applied to open data of 10 types of crimes happened in Chicago. It shows a good prediction accuracy superior to or comparable to the standard methods which are the expectation-maximization method and prospective hotspot maps method. We find a cascade influence of the crimes that has a long-time, logarithmic tail; this result is consistent with an earlier study on burglaries. This long-tail feature cannot be reproduced by the other standard methods. In addition, a merit of the Green's function method is the low computational cost in the case of high density of events and/or large amount of the training data.

description: We consider the Carnot-Carathéodory distance $δ_E$ to a closed set $E$ in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}^n$, $n\ge 1$. The $\mathbb{H}$-regularity of $δ_E$ is proved under mild conditions involving a general notion of singular points. In case $E$ is a Euclidean $C^k$ submanifold, $k\ge 2$, we prove that $δ_E$ is $C^k$ out of the singular set. Explicit expressions for the volume of the tubular neighborhood when the boundary of $E$ is of class $C^2$ are obtained, out of the singular set, in terms of the horizontal principal curvatures of $\partial E$ and of the function $\langle N,T\rangle/|N_h|$ and its tangent derivatives.

description: Convective storm nowcasting has attracted substantial attention in various fields. Existing methods under a deep learning framework rely primarily on radar data. Although they perform nowcast storm advection well, it is still challenging to nowcast storm initiation and growth, due to the limitations of the radar observations. This paper describes the first attempt to nowcast storm initiation, growth, and advection simultaneously under a deep learning framework using multi-source meteorological data. To this end, we present a multi-channel 3D-cube successive convolution network (3D-SCN). As real-time re-analysis meteorological data can now provide valuable atmospheric boundary layer thermal dynamic information, which is essential to predict storm initiation and growth, both raw 3D radar and re-analysis data are used directly without any handcraft feature engineering. These data are formulated as multi-channel 3D cubes, to be fed into our network, which are convolved by cross-channel 3D convolutions. By stacking successive convolutional layers without pooling, we build an end-to-end trainable model for nowcasting. Experimental results show that deep learning methods achieve better performance than traditional extrapolation methods. The qualitative analyses of 3D-SCN show encouraging results of nowcasting of storm initiation, growth, and advection.

description: The minimal seesaw scenario can radiatively generate the Higgs potential to induce electroweak symmetry breaking while supplying an origin of the Higgs vacuum expectation value from an underlying Majorana scale. If the Higgs potential and (derived) electroweak scale have this origin, the heavy $\rm SU(3) \times SU(2) \times U(1)_Y$ singlet states are expected to reside at $m_N \sim 10-500 \, {\rm PeV} $ for couplings $|ω| \sim 10^{-4.5}-10^{-6}$ between the Majorana sector and the Standard Model. In this framework, the challenge of the electroweak scale hierarchy problem is replaced with a need to generate or accommodate PeV Majorana mass scales in ultraviolet models; the usual hierarchy problem is absent as the electroweak scale is not a fundamental scale.

description: The spreading and regulation of epigenetic marks on chromosomes is crucial to establish and maintain cellular identity. Nonetheless, the dynamical mechanism leading to the establishment and maintenance of a given, cell-line specific, epigenetic pattern is still poorly understood. In this work we propose, and investigate in silico, a possible experimental strategy to illuminate the interplay between 3D chromatin structure and epigenetic dynamics. We consider a set-up where a reconstituted chromatin fibre is stretched at its two ends (e.g., by laser tweezers), while epigenetic enzymes (writers) and chromatin-binding proteins (readers) are flooded into the system. We show that, by tuning the stretching force and the binding affinity of the readers for chromatin, the fibre undergoes a sharp transition between a stretched, epigenetically disordered, state and a crumpled, epigenetically coherent, one. We further investigate the case in which a knot is tied along the chromatin fibre, and find that the knotted segment enhances local epigenetic order, giving rise to "epigenetic solitons" which travel and diffuse along chromatin. Our results point to an intriguing coupling between 3D chromatin topology and epigenetic dynamics, which may be investigated via single molecule experiments.

description: We give arguments for the existence of a thermodynamics of quantum complexity that includes a "Second Law of Complexity". To guide us, we derive a correspondence between the computational (circuit) complexity of a quantum system of $K$ qubits, and the positional entropy of a related classical system with $2^K$ degrees of freedom. We also argue that the kinetic entropy of the classical system is equivalent to the Kolmogorov complexity of the quantum Hamiltonian. We observe that the expected pattern of growth of the complexity of the quantum system parallels the growth of entropy of the classical system. We argue that the property of having less-than-maximal complexity (uncomplexity) is a resource that can be expended to perform directed quantum computation. Although this paper is not primarily about black holes, we find a surprising interpretation of the uncomplexity-resource as the accessible volume of spacetime behind a black hole horizon.
