description: We give formulae for the Ozsvath-Szabo invariants of 4-manifolds X obtained by fiber sum of two manifolds M_1, M_2 along surfaces S_1, S_2 having trivial normal bundle and genus g>0. The formulae follow from a general theorem on the Ozsvath-Szabo invariants of the result of gluing two 4-manifolds along a common boundary, which is phrased in terms of relative invariants of the pieces. These relative invariants take values in a version of Heegaard Floer homology with coefficients in modules over certain Novikov rings; the fiber sum formula follows from the theorem that this "perturbed" version of Heegaard Floer theory recovers the usual Ozsvath-Szabo invariants, when the 4-manifold in question has b^+>1. The construction allows an extension of the definition of the Ozsvath-Szabo invariants to 4-manifolds having b^+ = 1 depending on certain choices, in close analogy with Seiberg-Witten theory. The product formulae lead quickly to calculations of the Ozsvath-Szabo invariants of various 4-manifolds; in all cases the results are in accord with the conjectured equivalence between the Ozsvath-Szabo and Seiberg-Witten invariants.

Catocala ophelia var. dollii: the original description states “Male… Habitat – Colorado. A single specimen of this odd variety is in the collection of Mr. Jacob Doll.” Barnes and McDunnough (1918) claimed to have figured the holotype by monotypy, but the specimen from Doll’s collection marked as type at the USNM is a female from Arizona and bears a label written in 1932 by F. H. Benjamin stating “prob. spurious type.” Benjamin apparently worked on but never resolved this issue, as several other specimens of C. dollii in the USNM and AMNH collections bear notes by him inquiring as to the status of the holotype. Given Benjamin’s difficulties and the fact that the name refers to one of the taxonomically diffi cult western Nearctic species, we designate the USNM female noted above as neotype to clarify application of the name dollii. Th e neotype bears the labels “Prescott / VII. 21 Ariz.”, “Col. / Jacob Doll”, “Type / No. / A.M.N.H.”, “Type No. / 44535 / U.S. N.M.”, “Prob. spurious type. / Should be a ♁ from / Colorado (Doll Coll.) / FHB. 1932.” Type Locality: hereby amended to Prescott, Ariz[ona, USA] on the basis of the neotype labels.

description: A non-abelian phase space, or a phase space of a Lie algebra is a generalization of the usual (abelian) phase space of a vector space. It corresponds to a parakähler structure in geometry. Its structure can be interpreted in terms of left-symmetric algebras. In particular, a solution of an algebraic equation in a left-symmetric algebra which is an analogue of classical Yang-Baxter equation in a Lie algebra can induce a phase space. In this paper, we find that such phase spaces have a symplectically isomorphic property. We also give all such phase spaces in dimension 4 and some examples in dimension 6. These examples can be a guide for a further development.

description: We provide an algorithm to determine the Heegaard genus of simple 3-manifolds with non-empty boundary. More generally, we supply an algorithm to determine (up to ambient isotopy) all the Heegaard splittings of any given genus for the manifold. As a consequence, the tunnel number of a hyperbolic link is algorithmically computable. Our techniques rely on Rubinstein's work on almost normal surfaces, and also a new structure called a partially flat angled ideal triangulation.

description: Conformally invariant massless field systems involving only dimensionless parameters are known to describe particle physics at very high energy. In the presence of an external gravitational field, the conformal symmetry may generalize to Weyl invariance. However, the latter symmetry no longer survives after quantization: A Weyl anomaly appears. In this Letter, a purely algebraic understanding of the universal structure of the Weyl anomalies is presented. The results hold in arbitrary dimensions and independently of any regularization scheme.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Determining the mechanism behind the current cosmic acceleration constitutes a major question nowadays in theoretical physics. If the dark energy route is taken, this problem may potentially bring to light new insights not only in Cosmology but also in high energy physics theories. Following this approach, we explore in this paper some cosmological consequences of a new time-dependent parameterization for the dark energy equation of state (EoS), which is a well behaved function of the redshift $z$ over the entire cosmological evolution, i.e., $z\in [-1,\infty)$. This parameterization allows us to divide the parametric plane $(w_0,w_1)$ in defined regions associated to distinct classes of dark energy models that can be confirmed or excluded from a confrontation with current observational data. A statistical analysis involving the most recent observations from type Ia supernovae, baryon acoustic oscillation peak, Cosmic Microwave Background shift parameter and Hubble evolution $H(z)$ is performed to check the observational viability of the EoS parameterization here proposed.

description: The future Quantum Internet is expected to be based on a hybrid architecture with core quantum transport capabilities complemented by conventional networking.Practical and foundational considerations indicate the need for conventional control and data planes that (i) utilize extensive existing telecommunications fiber infrastructure, and (ii) provide parallel conventional data channels needed for quantum networking protocols. We propose a quantum-conventional network (QCN) harness to implement a new architecture to meet these requirements. The QCN control plane carries the control and management traffic, whereas its data plane handles the conventional and quantum data communications. We established a local area QCN connecting three quantum laboratories over dedicated fiber and conventional network connections. We describe considerations and tradeoffs for layering QCN functionalities, informed by our recent quantum entanglement distribution experiments conducted over this network.

description: We have analyzed the phase space distribution of a sample of about 900 non--kinematically selected low metallicity stars in the solar vicinity. The stars primarily represent the thick disk and halo populations of the Milky Way. We aim to identify overdensely populated regions in phase space, which we interpret as signatures of star streams passing close to the Sun. The search was conducted in a space constructed from the angular momenta and eccentricities of the stellar orbits. Besides recovering all well known star streams in the thick disk, we isolated four statistically significant phase space overdensities amongst halo stars. One of them is associated with a previously known halo star stream, but three of them are novel features, which we propose be also considered as genuine halo streams.

description: This is the critical discourse analysis data set completed in March 2018 in preparation for the article published November 2018 in Journal of Learning for Development about the lack of social justice alignment of recent (2002-2015) scholarly open education works.  See https://jl4d.org/index.php/ejl4d/article/view/290/334
There are 3 major data tables covering excerpts and analysis of key texts from across the foundational, broadening and appropriation phases periods. The texts selected have often used as de-facto definitions to make claims about what open education is or could be.
The finished articled synthesised the results published here into major themes contained in the texts and found that "openness determinism" was a major alternative theme for texts that did not explicitly talk about the use of open education to assist disadvantaged and educationally under-served learners.

Obama Administration

description: Obama Administration officials have indicated that international cooperation will play a greater role in their national space policy than it did during the Bush administration. But they have not provided a clear and consistent logic specifying why the United States wants more space cooperation, what types of cooperation it will pursue, and how it will convince other countries to agree on, and comply with, accords that produce the desired policy results. Instead, their policy about space cooperation mixes elements from three different and somewhat contradictory strategic logics: a “Global Commons” logic, a “Strategic Stability” logic, and a “Space Governance for Global Security” logic. While each logic has attractive features, the Global Commons logic is unlikely to achieve significant results in a short period of time, while the Strategic Stability logic is more likely to promote competition, rather than cooperation. Following the Space Governance for Global Security logic could yield much larger dividends by using positive and negative forms of space cooperation to gain widespread support for the equitable rules and effective international institutions needed to address the central challenges identified by the 2010 National Security Strategy.

These include quantum image storage, optically based quantum repeaters and ultracold molecule formation. We present here a microscopic analysis of the light scattering on such a system, and we compare it with a corresponding description based on macroscopic Maxwell theory. Results are discussed in the context of the spectral resonance structure, time-dependent response, and the light localization problem.

description: What would happen if Americans were to actually sit down and be presented a budget and given the opportunity to make choices and tradeoffs in a single framework?

To answer this question, the Center on Policy Attitudes presented a representative sample of Americans with 31 of the major areas of the discretionary federal budget, as projected for the year 2015. Participants were given a chance to increase or decrease each item as they saw fit.

Seventy-six percent reduced spending overall, with the average respondent making net cuts of $145.7 billion. By far the largest cuts were to defense spending (which constituted the majority of all cuts), followed by intelligence, military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the federal highway system—all of which were cut by at least half of respondents. Some items were increased: especially job training, aid to higher education, and energy conservation and renewables.

description: We establish an orientifold Calabi-Yau threefold database for $h^{1,1}(X) \leq 6$ by considering non-trivial $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$ divisor exchange involutions, using a toric Calabi-Yau database (http://www.rossealtman.com/toriccy/). We first determine the topology for each individual divisor (Hodge diamond), then identify and classify the proper involutions which are globally consistent across all disjoint phases of the Kähler cone for each unique geometry. Each of the proper involutions will result in an orientifold Calabi-Yau manifold. Then we clarify all possible fixed loci under the proper involution, thereby determining the locations of different types of $O$-planes. It is shown that under the proper involutions, one typically ends up with a system of $O3/O7$-planes, and most of these will further admit naive Type IIB string vacua.The geometries with freely acting involutions are also determined. We further determine the splitting of the Hodge numbers into odd/even parity in the orbifold limit. The final result is a class of orientifold Calabi-Yau threefolds with non-trivial odd class cohomology $h^{1,1}_{-}(X / σ^*) \neq 0$.

description: We have used spectra of hot stars from the RAVE Survey in order to investigate the visibility and properties of five diffuse interstellar bands previously reported in the literature. The RAVE spectroscopic survey for Galactic structure and kinematics records CCD spectra covering the 8400-8800 Ang wavelength region at 7500 resolving power. The spectra are obtained with the UK Schmidt at the AAO, equipped with the 6dF multi-fiber positioner. The DIB at 8620.4 Ang is by far the strongest and cleanest of all DIBs occurring within the RAVE wavelength range, with no interference by underlying absorption stellar lines in hot stars. It correlates so tightly with reddening that it turns out to be a reliable tool to measure it, following the relation E(B-V) = 2.72 (+/- 0.03) x E.W.(Ang), valid throughout the general interstellar medium of our Galaxy. The presence of a DIB at 8648 Ang is confirmed. Its intensity appears unrelated to reddening, in agreement with scanty and preliminary reports available in the literature, and its measurability is strongly compromised by severe blending with underlying stellar HeI doublet at 8649 Ang. The two weak DIBS at 8531 and 8572 Ang do not appear real and should actually be blends of underlying stellar lines. The very weak DIB at 8439 Ang cannot be resolved within the profile of the much stronger underlying hydrogen Paschen 18 stellar line.

Structure-Preserving Image Super-Resolution

description: Structures matter in single image super-resolution (SISR). Benefiting from generative adversarial networks (GANs), recent studies have promoted the development of SISR by recovering photo-realistic images. However, there are still undesired structural distortions in the recovered images. In this paper, we propose a structure-preserving super-resolution (SPSR) method to alleviate the above issue while maintaining the merits of GAN-based methods to generate perceptual-pleasant details. Firstly, we propose SPSR with gradient guidance (SPSR-G) by exploiting gradient maps of images to guide the recovery in two aspects. On the one hand, we restore high-resolution gradient maps by a gradient branch to provide additional structure priors for the SR process. On the other hand, we propose a gradient loss to impose a second-order restriction on the super-resolved images, which helps generative networks concentrate more on geometric structures. Secondly, since the gradient maps are handcrafted and may only be able to capture limited aspects of structural information, we further extend SPSR-G by introducing a learnable neural structure extractor (NSE) to unearth richer local structures and provide stronger supervision for SR. We propose two self-supervised structure learning methods, contrastive prediction and solving jigsaw puzzles, to train the NSEs. Our methods are model-agnostic, which can be potentially used for off-the-shelf SR networks. Experimental results on five benchmark datasets show that the proposed methods outperform state-of-the-art perceptual-driven SR methods under LPIPS, PSNR, and SSIM metrics. Visual results demonstrate the superiority of our methods in restoring structures while generating natural SR images. Code is available at https://github.com/Maclory/SPSR.

description: We introduce a new class of two-dimensional cellular automata with a bootstrap percolation-like dynamics. Each site can be either empty or occupied by a single particle and the dynamics follows a deterministic updating rule at discrete times which allows only emptying sites.

Simulations of Information Transport in Spin Chains

description: Transport of quantum information in linear spin chains has been the subject of much theoretical work. Experimental studies by nuclear spin systems in solid-state by NMR (a natural implementation of such models) is complicated since the dipolar Hamiltonian is not solely comprised of nearest-neighbor XY-Heisenberg couplings. We present here a similarity transformation between the XY-Heisenberg Hamiltonian and the grade raising Hamiltonian, an interaction which is achievable with the collective control provided by radio-frequency pulses in NMR. Not only does this second Hamiltonian allows us to simulate the information transport in a spin chain, but it also provides a means to observe its signature experimentally.

Stress-informed Control of Medium- and High-head Hydropower Plants to Reduce Penstock Fatigue
Creators: name: Cassano, Stefano
name: Sossan, Fabrizio
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Systems and Control (eess.SY)
subject: FOS: Electrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineering

description: The displacement of conventional generation in favor of stochastic renewable requires increasing regulation duties from the remaining dispatchable resources. In high- and medium-head hydropower plants (HPPs), providing regulation services to the grid and frequently changing the plant's set-point causes water hammer, which engenders pressure and stress transients within the pressurized conduits, especially the penstock, damaging it in the long run. This paper proposes a model predictive control (MPC) that explicitly models the hydraulic transients within the penstock. It achieves to reduce the mechanical loads on the penstock wall, and, consequently, fatigue effectively. Thanks to a suitable linearization of the plant model, the optimization problem underlying the MPC scheme is convex and can be solved with off-the-shelf optimization libraries. The performance of the proposed controller is tested with numerical simulations on a 230MW medium-head HPP with Francis turbine providing primary frequency control. Simulation results show substantially reduced penstock fatigue, existing approaches outperformed, and problem resolution times compatible with real-time control requirements.
Bias-driven local density of states alterations and transport in ballistic molecular devices

description: We study dynamic nonequilibrium electron charging phenomena in ballistic molecular devices at room temperature that compromise their response to bias and whose nature is evidently distinguishable from static Schottky-type potential barriers. Using various metallic/semiconducting carbon nanotubes and alkane dithiol molecules as active parts of a molecular bridge, we perform self-consistent quantum transport calculations under the nonequilibrium Green's function formalism coupled to a three-dimensional Poisson solver for a mutual description of chemistry and electrostatics. Our results sketch a particular tracking relationship between the device's local density of states and the contact electrochemical potentials that can effectively condition the conduction process by altering the electronic structure of the molecular system. Such change is unassociated to electronic/phononic scattering effects while its extent is highly correlated to the conducting character of the system, giving rise to an increase of the intrinsic resistance of molecules with a semiconducting character and a symmetric mass-center disposition.

The Minkowski question mark function: explicit series for the dyadic period function and moments

description: Previously, several natural integral transforms of the Minkowski question mark function F(x) were introduced by the author. Each of them is uniquely characterized by certain regularity conditions and the functional equation, thus encoding intrinsic information about F(x). One of them - the dyadic period function G(z) - was defined as a Stieltjes transform. In this paper we introduce a family of "distributions" F_p(x) for Re p>=1, such that F_1(x) is the question mark function and F_2(x) is a discrete distribution with support on x=1. We prove that the generating function of moments of F_p(x) satisfies the three term functional equation. This has an independent interest, though our main concern is the information it provides about F(x). This approach yields the following main result: we prove that the dyadic period function is a sum of infinite series of rational functions with rational coefficients.

Vertical compositional variations of liquid hydrocarbons in Titan's alkanofers

description: According to clues left by the Cassini mission, Titan, one of the two Solar System bodies with a hydrologic cycle, may harbor liquid hydrocarbon-based analogs of our terrestrial aquifers, referred to as "alkanofers". On the Earth, petroleum and natural gas reservoirs show a vertical gradient in chemical composition, established over geological timescales. In this work, we aim to investigate the conditions under which Titan's processes could lead to similar situations. We built numerical models including barodiffusion and thermodiffusion (Soret's effect) in N_2+CH_4+C_2H_6 liquid mixtures, which are relevant for Titan's possible alkanofers. Our main assumption is the existence of reservoirs of liquids trapped in a porous matrix with low permeability. Due to the small size of the molecule, nitrogen seems to be more sensitive to gravity than ethane, even if the latter has a slightly larger mass. This behavior, noticed for an isothermal crust, is reinforced by the presence of a geothermal gradient. Vertical composition gradients, formed over timescales of between a fraction of a mega-year to several tens of mega-years, are not influenced by molecular diffusion coefficients. We find that ethane does not accumulate at the bottom of the alkanofers under diffusion, leaving the question of why ethane is not observed on Titan's surface unresolved. If the alkanofer liquid was in contact with water-ice, we checked that N_2 did not, in general, impede the clathration of C_2H_6, except in some layers. Interestingly, we found that noble gases could easily accumulate at the bottom of an alkanofer.
