description: Two photon-pair creation processes can be arranged such that the paths of the emitted photons are identical. Thereby the path information is not erased but is never born in the first place. In addition to its implications for fundamental physics, this concept has recently led to a series of discoveries in the fields of imaging, spectroscopy, and quantum information science. Here we present the idea of path identity and provide a comprehensive review of the recent developments.

description: In recent years, locomotion mechanisms exhibited by vertebrate animals have been the inspiration for the improvement in the performance of robotic systems. These mechanisms include the adaptability of their locomotion to any change registered in the environment through their biological sensors. In this regard, we aim to replicate such kind of adaptability in legged robots through a Spiking Central Pattern Generator. This Spiking Central Pattern Generator generates different locomotion (rhythmic) patterns which are driven by an external stimulus, that is, the output of a Force Sensitive Resistor connected to the robot to provide feedback. The Spiking Central Pattern Generator consists of a network of five populations of Leaky Integrate-and-Fire neurons designed with a specific topology in such a way that the rhythmic patterns can be generated and driven by the aforementioned external stimulus. Therefore, the locomotion of the end robotic platform (any-legged robot) can be adapted to the terrain by using any sensor as input. The Spiking Central Pattern Generator with adaptive learning has been numerically validated at software and hardware level, using the Brian 2 simulator and the SpiNNaker neuromorphic platform for the latest. In particular, our experiments clearly show an adaptation in the oscillation frequencies between the spikes produced in the populations of the Spiking Central Pattern Generator while the input stimulus varies. To validate the robustness and adaptability of the Spiking Central Pattern Generator, we have performed several tests by variating the output of the sensor. These experiments were carried out in Brian 2 and SpiNNaker; both implementations showed a similar behavior with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.905.

In particular, we use the injection operator developed in [LuRK2020] for HDG and prove optimal convergence of the method under the assumption of elliptic regularity. Numerical experiments underline our analytical findings.

description: Constant-specified and exponential concentration inequalities play an essential role in the finite-sample theory of machine learning and high-dimensional statistics area. We obtain sharper and constants-specified concentration inequalities for the sum of independent sub-Weibull random variables, which leads to a mixture of two tails: sub-Gaussian for small deviations and sub-Weibull for large deviations from the mean. These bounds are new and improve existing bounds with sharper constants. In addition, a new sub-Weibull parameter if the italic should be retained. Please check the whole text. is also proposed, which enables recovering the tight concentration inequality for a random variable (vector). For statistical applications, we give an $\ell_2$-error of estimated coefficients in negative binomial regressions when the heavy-tailed covariates are sub-Weibull distributed with sparse structures, which is a new result for negative binomial regressions. In applying random matrices, we derive non-asymptotic versions of Bai-Yin's theorem for sub-Weibull entries with exponential tail bounds. Finally, by demonstrating a sub-Weibull confidence region for a log-truncated Z-estimator without the second-moment condition, we discuss and define the sub-Weibull type robust estimator for independent observations $\{X_i\}_{i=1}^{n}$ without exponential-moment conditions.

description: The concept of biological adaptation was closely connected to some mathematical, engineering and physical ideas from the very beginning. Cannon in his "The wisdom of the body" (1932) used the engineering vision of regulation. In 1938, Selye enriched this approach by the notion of adaptation energy. This term causes much debate when one takes it literally, i.e. as a sort of energy. Selye did not use the language of mathematics, but the formalization of his phenomenological theory in the spirit of thermodynamics was simple and led to verifiable predictions. In 1980s, the dynamics of correlation and variance in systems under adaptation to a load of environmental factors were studied and the universal effect in ensembles of systems under a load of similar factors was discovered: in a crisis, as a rule, even before the onset of obvious symptoms of stress, the correlation increases together with variance (and volatility). During 30 years, this effect has been supported by many observations of groups of humans, mice, trees, grassy plants, and on financial time series. In the last ten years, these results were supplemented by many new experiments, from gene networks in cardiology and oncology to dynamics of depression and clinical psychotherapy. Several systems of models were developed: the thermodynamic-like theory of adaptation of ensembles and several families of models of individual adaptation. Historically, the first group of models was based on Selye's concept of adaptation energy and used fitness estimates. Two other groups of models are based on the idea of hidden attractor bifurcation and on the advection--diffusion model for distribution of population in the space of physiological attributes. We explore this world of models and experiments, starting with classic works, with particular attention to the results of the last ten years and open questions.

description: We derive and study a new hyperbolic two-phase model of a porous deformable medium saturated by a viscous fluid. The governing equations of the model are derived in the framework of Symmetric Hyperbolic Thermodynamically Compatible (SHTC) systems and by generalizing the unified hyperbolic model of continuum fluid and solid mechanics. Similarly to the unified model, the presented model takes into account the viscosity of the saturating fluid through a hyperbolic reformulation. The model accounts for such dissipative mechanisms as interfacial friction and viscous dissipation of the saturated fluid. Using the presented nonlinear finite-strain SHTC model, the governing equations for the propagation of small-amplitude waves in a porous medium saturated with a viscous fluid are derived. As in the conventional Biot theory of porous media, three types of waves can be found: fast and slow compression waves and shear waves. It turns out that the shear wave attenuates rapidly due to the viscosity of the saturating fluid, and this wave is difficult to see in typical test cases. However, some test cases are presented in which shear waves can be observed in the vicinity of interfaces between regions with different porosity.

description: This essay contends that in quantum gravity, some spatial regions do not admit a unitary Hilbert space. Because the gravitational path integral spontaneously breaks CPT symmetry, "states" with negative probability can be identified on either side of trapped surfaces. I argue that these negative norm states are tolerable, by analogy to quantum mechanics. This viewpoint suggests a resolution of the firewall paradox, similar to black hole complementarity. Implications for cosmology are briefly discussed.

description: This paper develops a decentralized reinforcement learning (RL) scheme for multi-intersection adaptive traffic signal control (TSC), called "CVLight", that leverages data collected from connected vehicles (CVs). The state and reward design facilitates coordination among agents and considers travel delays collected by CVs. A novel algorithm, Asymmetric Advantage Actor-critic (Asym-A2C), is proposed where both CV and non-CV information is used to train the critic network, while only CV information is used to execute optimal signal timing. Comprehensive experiments show the superiority of CVLight over state-of-the-art algorithms under a 2-by-2 synthetic road network with various traffic demand patterns and penetration rates. The learned policy is then visualized to further demonstrate the advantage of Asym-A2C. A pre-train technique is applied to improve the scalability of CVLight, which significantly shortens the training time and shows the advantage in performance under a 5-by-5 road network. A case study is performed on a 2-by-2 road network located in State College, Pennsylvania, USA, to further demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm under real-world scenarios. Compared to other baseline models, the trained CVLight agent can efficiently control multiple intersections solely based on CV data and achieve the best performance, especially under low CV penetration rates.

title: Biomechanics of the shoulder and pectoral muscle during gliding flight in Anhangu-era piscator (Archosauria, Pterosauria) from the Lower Cretaceous of Brazil
Creators: name: Wegan, Florian
Year: 2020

description: Flugsaurier waren die ersten aktiv fliegenden Wirbeltiere und entwickelten sich während ihres Auftretens im Mesozoikum zu gigantischen Größen. Unter ihnen waren die, ähnlich einem Gleitflugzeug, ornithocheirischen Flugsaurier aus der Familie der Anhangueridae, bekannt aus der Kreide Brasiliens und Marokkos. Es wird angenommen, dass der bevorzugte Flugstil das Gleiten war. In dieser Arbeit wurden, mithilfe von Fossilien und anderen Publikationen, die Kräfte untersucht, die während des Gleitens auf die Schulter und den Brustmuskel von Anhanguer piscator wirkten und ob diese Kräfte, mit denen moderner Vögel vergleichbar sind. Damit das Körpergewicht eingeschätzt werden konnte, wurde ein lebensechtes 3D Flügel-Model von Anhanguera piscator erstellt. Mithilfe dieses wurde auch der Auftrieb für jeden Flügel berechnet. Um zu erfahren welche Kräfte der Brustmuskel generieren musste um den Flügel in Gleitposition zu halten und welcher daraus resultierende Stress auf den Knorpel im Schultergelenk wirkte, wurden einfache trigonometrische Funktionen zu Hilfe genommen. Der Brustmuskel hätte das 9- bis 12-fache des Körpergewichts an Kraft generieren müssen, je nachdem welche Methode verwendet wurde. Unter turbulenten Bedingungen würden diese Werte bis auf das 25- bis 31-fache des Körpergewichts ansteigen und sind demnach höher als bei modernen Vögeln. Der Stress auf den Knorpel im Schultergelenk würde zwischen 1,17 MPa und 3,78 MPa liegen, welcher ähnlich dem moderner Tiere ist.
description: Pterosaurs were the first vertebrates to take active flight and they evolved into gigantic sizes during their occurrence in the Mesozoic era. Among them where the glider like ornithocheirid pterosaur family of Anhangueridae known from the Cretaceous of Brazil and Morocco. Their preferred style of flight is assumed to have been gliding or soaring long distances. In this thesis with the help of the fossil record and other publications, a research has been made on Anhanguera piscator to calculate the forces acting on the shoulder and pectoral muscle during gliding in this specimen and whether pterosaur experienced similar forces to modern birds. A life like 3D model of the wings of Anhanguera piscator was created and used to estimate the body mass and to calculate the lift generated by those wings. With the help of simple trigonometric functions, the forces the pectoral muscle had to generate, to keep the wing in an horizontal gliding position and the resulting stress in the articulation cartilage of the shoulder joint were determined. The pectoral muscle would have had to generate forces equal to nine or 12 times the body weight depending on the method used. At unsteady conditions, the values could spike up to 25 or 31 times the body weight, which is higher than in modern birds. The stresses on the gelnohumeral joint cartilage would range from 1,17 MPa to 3,78 MPa, which lies in range with modern animals.

description: It is well known that a primordial black hole (PBH) can be generated in the inflation process of the early universe, especially when the inflation field has a number of non-trivial features that could break the slow-roll condition. In this study, we investigate a toy model of inflation with bumpy potential, which has one or several bumps. We determined that the potential with multi-bump can generate power spectra with multi-peaks in small-scale region, which can in turn predict the generation of primordial black holes in various mass ranges. We also consider the two possibilities of PBH formation by spherical and elliptical collapses. Finally, we discuss the scalar-induced gravitational waves(SIGWs)generated by linear scalar perturbations at second order.

Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: The thermodynamic and physical properties of the Laves phase Fe2Mo have been investigated using the finite-temperature quantum mechanical calculations within the frame of the density functional theory (DFT). All relevant free energy contributions including electronic, vibrational and magnetic excitations are considered. The quasi-harmonic Debye - Gruneisen theory is used. In this work, a new method of searching a thermal expansion path of compounds is proposed. It allows to reduce the problem to a one-dimensional case and minimize the free energy in one variable, in volume. The heat capacity, thermal expansion, elastic constants and bulk modulus are modelled. The calculated results analyzed and are in an agreement with the available experimental data. It is shown that magnetic entropy must be considered on equal footing with vibrational and electronic energies to reliably predict stability of Fe2Mo.

description: A staged tree model is a discrete statistical model encoding relationships between events. These models are realised by directed trees with coloured vertices. In algebro-geometric terms, the model consists of points inside a toric variety. For certain trees, called balanced, the model is in fact the intersection of the toric variety and the probability simplex. This gives the model a straightforward description, and has computational advantages. In this paper we show that the class of staged tree models with a toric structure extends far outside of the balanced case, if we allow a change of coordinates. It is an open problem whether all staged tree models have toric structure.

title: Das Rätsel der Sphinx
Creators: name: Haunschmid, David

description: Das durch König Ödipus beantwortete Rätsel der Sphinx interpretiert Hegel als Metapher für das Heraustreten des Menschen aus der Natur. In Anbetracht des enormen Erfolgs moderner Naturwissenschaft, stellt sich auch heute noch die Frage, wie Natur beschaffen sein muss, um mit menschlicher Freiheit vereinbar zu sein. Wie ist es möglich, dass Naturgesetz gelten und sich der Mensch dennoch frei zu ihnen verhält? Aufgegriffen wird diese Fragestellung anhand des systematischen Ganges der hegelschen Philosophie, durch welchen sich gleichermaßen eine Perspektive auf die Natur als deren Beziehung zu Geist und Logik ergibt. Eine Schlüsselrolle nimmt hierbei das Denken konkreter Bestimmtheit in der Wissenschaft der Logik ein, wodurch gleichermaßen gezeigt werden wird, dass Bestimmtheit immer nur durch Selbstbestimmung möglich ist und diese immer auf ein Anderssein bezogen ist. Als die Beziehung von Selbstbestimmung und Anderssein wird das Verhältnis von Freiheit und Natur in der Logik thematisch. Derselbe Gedankengang weist jedoch zugleich über den Rahmen der Logik hinaus, wodurch auch die „Natur in Raum und Zeit“ zum Gegenstand der Überlegungen gemacht wird. Während die Perspektive auf Natur als Moment des Andersseins innerhalb der Logik anhand des Objektivitäts-Kapitels vertieft wird, stützt sich die Auseinandersetzung mit der Natur in Raum und Zeit auf eine Interpretation der Naturphilosophie in Hegels Enzyklopädie von 1830. Durch beide Perspektiven erweist sich Hegels System als eine konkret bestimmte Totalität, wodurch der Vorwurf Hegel würde jede Differenz in eine abstrakte Identität aufheben zurückgewiesen werden kann.

description: Multimode fibers (MMF) are used in many applications from telecomunications to minimally invasive micro-endoscopic imaging. However, the numerous modes and their coupling make light-beam control and imaging a delicate task. To circumvent this difficulty, recent methods exploit priors about the transmission of the system, such as the so-called optical memory effect. Here, we quantitatively characterize a chromato-axial memory effect in step-index MMF, characterized through its slope $δz/δλ$ and its spectral and axial widths. We propose a theoretical model and numerical simulations in good agreement with experimental observations.

description: We present recent analytic results for the 3-loop corrections to the massive operator matrix element $A_{Qg}^{(3)}$for further color factors. These results have been obtained using the method of arbitrarily large moments. We also give an overview on the results which were obtained solving all difference and differential equations for the corresponding master integrals that factorize at first order.

description: We describe the utility of integral representations for sums of basic hypergeometric functions. In particular we use these to derive an infinite sequence of transformations for symmetrizations over certain variables which the functions possess. These integral representations were studied by Bailey, Slater, Askey, Roy, Gasper and Rahman and were also used to facilitate the computation of certain outstanding problems in the theory of basic hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials in the $q$-Askey scheme. We also generalize and give consequences and transformation formulas for some fundamental integrals connected to nonterminating basic hypergeometric series and the Askey--Wilson polynomials. We express a certain integral of a ratio of infinite $q$-shifted factorials as a symmetric sum of two basic hypergeometric series with argument $q$. The result is then expressed as a $q$-integral. Examples of integral representations applied to the derivation of generating functions for Askey--Wilson are given and as well the computation of a missing generating function for the continuous dual $q$-Hahn polynomials.

description: Explaining the mechanism of superconductivity in the high-$T_c$ cuprates requires an understanding of what causes electrons to form Cooper pairs. Pairing can be mediated by phonons, the screened Coulomb force, spin or charge fluctuations, excitons, or by a combination of these. An excitonic pairing mechanism has been postulated, but experimental evidence for coupling between conduction electrons and excitons in the cuprates is sporadic. Here we use resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) to monitor the temperature dependence of the $\underline{d}d$ exciton spectrum of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8-x}$ (Bi-2212) crystals with different charge carrier concentrations. We observe a significant change of the $\underline{d}d$ exciton spectra when the materials pass from the normal state into the superconductor state. Our observations show that the $\underline{d}d$ excitons start to shift up (down) in the overdoped (underdoped) sample when the material enters the superconducting phase. We attribute the superconductivity-induced effect and its sign-reversal from underdoped to overdoped to the exchange coupling of the site of the $\underline{d}d$ exciton to the surrounding copper spins.
