description: working paper
description: We project the impact of excess mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic on future Social Security Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) payouts. The magnitude of the reduction in future payouts will depend not only on the magnitude of excess mortality by age, but also on the underlying life expectancies of those who fell victim. The impact will be smaller if excess COVID-19 mortality was concentrated among those who were already frail. It will also be offset by survivor benefit payouts to spouses of COVID-19 victims. We calculate the overall reduction in future Social Security net benefit payouts to be small. The fundamental reason is that excess mortality did not lead to a substantial reduction in life-years lost. A simple model implemented as a starting point suggests average life-years lost of about one month during 2020. We also undertake a careful projection of benefit payouts given COVID-19 mortality through late 2021 versus a counterfactual of pre-COVID-19 mortality, using several data sources. For individuals 55 and older who are nationally representative of the 2015 noninstitutionalized population, we project a reduction in net benefit payouts of $131 billion in present value, or 0.5% of benefits payable to that group in the absence of COVID.-19 This is a slight underestimate because of the following factors omitted from our calculations: excess mortality of those who were younger than 55 and of those who were institutionalized. Our analysis suggests that the major impact of the pandemic on the OASI trust fund operated through labor markets rather than excess mortality.

Stark points and Hida-Rankin p-adic L-function
Creators: name: Casazza, Daniele

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Number Theory (math.NT)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: This article is devoted to the elliptic Stark conjecture formulated by Darmon, Lauder and Rotger [DLR], which proposes a formula for the transcendental part of a $p$-adic avatar of the leading term at $s=1$ of the Hasse-Weil-Artin $L$-series $L(E,\varrho_1\otimes \varrho_2,s)$ of an elliptic curve $E$ twisted by the tensor product $\varrho_1\otimes \varrho_2$ of two odd $2$-dimensional Artin representations, when the order of vanishing is two. The main ingredient of this formula is a $2\times 2$ $p$-adic regulator involving the $p$-adic formal group logarithm of suitable Stark points on $E$. This conjecture was proved in [DLR] in the setting where $\varrho_1$ and $\varrho_2$ are induced from characters of the same imaginary quadratic field $K$. In this note we prove a refinement of this result, that was discovered experimentally in Remark 3.4 of [DLR] in a few examples. Namely, we are able to determine the algebraic constant up to which the main theorem of [DLR] holds in a particular setting where the Hida-Rankin $p$-adic $L$-function associated to a pair of Hida families can be exploited to provide an alternative proof of the same result. This constant encodes local and global invariants of both $E$ and $K$.

Intersecting families of sets and the topology of cones in economics

Subjects: subject: Algebraic Topology (math.AT)

description: Two classical problems in economics, the existence of a market equilibrium and the existence of social choice functions, are formalized here by the properties of a family of cones associated with the economy. It was recently established that a necessary and sufficient condition for solving the former is the nonempty intersection of the family of cones, and one such condition for solving the latter is the acyclicity of the unions of its subfamilies. We show an unexpected but clear connection between the two problems by establishing a duality property of the homology groups of the nerve defined by the family of cones. In particular, we prove that the intersection of the family of cones is nonempty if and only if every subfamily has acyclic unions, thus identifying the two conditions that solve the two economic problems. In addition to their applications to economics, the results are shown to extend significantly several classical theorems, providing unified and simple proofs: Helly's theorem, Caratheodory's representation theorem, the Knaster-Kuratowski-Marzukiewicz theorem, Brouwer's fixed point theorem, and Leray's theorem on acyclic covers.

description: Classical control noise is ubiquitous in qubit devices, making its accurate spectral characterization essential for designing optimized error suppression strategies at the physical level. Here, we focus on multiplicative Gaussian amplitude control noise on a driven qubit sensor and show that sensing protocols using optimally band-limited Slepian modulation offer substantial benefit in realistic scenarios. Special emphasis is given to laying out the theoretical framework necessary for extending non-parametric multitaper spectral estimation to the quantum setting by highlighting key points of contact and differences with respect to the classical formulation. In particular, we introduce and analyze two approaches (adaptive vs. single-setting) to quantum multitaper estimation, and show how they provide a practical means to both identify fine spectral features not otherwise detectable by existing protocols and to obtain reliable prior estimates for use in subsequent parametric estimation, including high-resolution Bayesian techniques. We quantitatively characterize the performance of both single- and multitaper Slepian estimation protocols by numerically reconstructing representative spectral densities, and demonstrate their advantage over dynamical-decoupling noise spectroscopy approaches in reducing bias from spectral leakage as well as in compensating for aliasing effects while maintaining a desired sampling resolution.

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: This paper derives and analyzes exact, nonlocal Langevin equations appropriate in a cosmological setting to describe the interaction of some collective degree of freedom with a surrounding ``environment.'' Formally, these equations are much more general, involving as they do a more or less arbitrary ``system,'' characterized by some time-dependent potential, which is coupled via a nonlinear, time-dependent interaction to a ``bath'' of oscillators with time-dependent frequencies. The analysis reveals that, even in a Markov limit, which can often be justified, the time dependences and nonlinearities can induce new and potentially significant effects, such as systematic and stochastic mass renormalizations and state-dependent ``memory'' functions, aside from the standard ``friction'' of a heuristic Langevin description. One specific example is discussed in detail, namely the case of an inflaton field, characterized by a Landau-Ginsburg potential, that is coupled quadratically to a bath of scalar ``radiation.'' The principal conclusion derived from this example is that nonlinearities and time-dependent couplings do {\em not} preclude the possibility of deriving a fluctuation-dissipation theorem, and do {\em not} change the form of the late-time steady state solution for the system, but {\em can} significantly shorten the time scale for the approach towards the steady state.

description: Autonomous vehicles bring the promise of enhancing the consumer experience in terms of comfort and convenience and, in particular, the safety of the autonomous vehicle. Safety functions in autonomous vehicles such as Automatic Emergency Braking and Lane Centering Assist rely on computation, information sharing, and the timely actuation of the safety functions. One opportunity to achieve robust autonomous vehicle safety is by enhancing the robustness of in-vehicle networking architectures that support built-in resiliency mechanisms. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an advanced networking paradigm that allows fine-grained manipulation of routing tables and routing engines and the implementation of complex features such as failover, which is a mechanism of protecting in-vehicle networks from failure, and in which a standby link automatically takes over once the main link fails. In this paper, we leverage SDN network programmability features to enable resiliency in the autonomous vehicle realm. We demonstrate that a Software Defined In-Vehicle Networking (SDIVN) does not add overhead compared to Legacy In-Vehicle Networks (LIVNs) under non-failure conditions and we highlight its superiority in the case of a link failure and its timely delivery of messages. We verify the proposed architectures benefits using a simulation environment that we have developed and we validate our design choices through testing and simulations

Stochastic Inflation:The Quantum Phase Space Approach

Year: 1992
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper a quantum mechanical phase space picture is constructed for coarse-grained free quantum fields in an inflationary Universe. The appropriate stochastic quantum Liouville equation is derived. Explicit solutions for the phase space quantum distribution function are found for the cases of power law and exponential expansions. The expectation values of dynamical variables with respect to these solutions are compared to the corresponding cutoff regularized field theoretic results (we do not restrict ourselves only to $\VEV{\F^2}$). Fair agreement is found provided the coarse-graining scale is kept within certain limits. By focusing on the full phase space distribution function rather than a reduced distribution it is shown that the thermodynamic interpretation of the stochastic formalism faces several difficulties (e.g., there is no fluctuation-dissipation theorem). The coarse-graining does not guarantee an automatic classical limit as quantum correlations turn out to be crucial in order to get results consistent with standard quantum field theory. Therefore, the method does {\em not} by itself constitute an explanation of the quantum to classical transition in the early Universe. In particular, we argue that the stochastic equations do not lead to decoherence.

description: The dynamics of a system that is initially correlated with an environment is almost always non-Markovian. Hence it is important to characterise such initial correlations experimentally and witness them in physically realistic settings. One such setting is weak-field phase control, where chemical reactions are sought to be controlled by the phase of shaped weak laser pulses. In this manuscript, we show how weak quantum controllability can be combined with quantum preparations to witness initial correlations between the system and the environment. Furthermore we show how weak field phase control can be applied to witness when the quantum regression formula does not apply.

description: A series of 1,2,3-triazole analogues as novel fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) inhibitors were synthesised in this study. Among all 1,2,3-triazoles, compound C6 exhibited the most robust inhibition of FTO with an IC50 value of 780 nM. It displayed the potent antiproliferative activity against KYSE-150, KYSE-270, TE-1, KYSE-510, and EC109 cell lines with IC50 value of 2.17, 1.35, 0.95, 4.15, and 0.83 μM, respectively. In addition, C6 arrested the cell cycle at G2 phase against TE-1 and EC109 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Analysis of cellular mechanisms demonstrated that C6 concentration-dependently regulated epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) pathway and PI3K/AKT pathway against TE-1 and EC109 cells. Molecular docking studies that C6 formed important hydrogen-bond interaction with Lys107, Asn110, Tyr108, and Leu109 of FTO. These findings suggested that C6 as a novel FTO inhibitor and orally antitumor agent deserves further investigation to treat esophageal cancer.

description: Gravitational instantons, solutions to the euclidean Einstein equations, with topology $R^3 XS^1$ arise naturally in any discussion of finite temperature quantum gravity. This Letter shows that all such instantons (irrespective of their interior behaviour) must have the same asymptotic structure as the Schwarzschild instanton. Using this, it can be shown that if the Ricci tensor of the manifold is non-negative it must be flat. One special case is when the Ricci tensor vanishes; hence one can conclude that there is no nontrivial vacuum gravitational instanton. This result has uses both in quantum and classical gravity. It places a significant restriction on the instabilities of hot flat space. It also can be used to show that any static vacuum Lorentzian Kaluza-Klein solution is flat.

description: We show how to accurately study 2D quantum critical phenomena using infinite projected entangled-pair states (iPEPS). We identify the presence of a finite correlation length in the optimal iPEPS approximation to Lorentz-invariant critical states which we use to perform a finite correlation-length scaling (FCLS) analysis to determine critical exponents. This is analogous to the one-dimensional (1D) finite entanglement scaling with infinite matrix product states. We provide arguments why this approach is also valid in 2D by identifying a class of states that despite obeying the area law of entanglement seems hard to describe with iPEPS. We apply these ideas to interacting spinless fermions on a honeycomb lattice and obtain critical exponents which are in agreement with Quantum Monte Carlo results. Furthermore, we introduce a new scheme to locate the critical point without the need of computing higher order moments of the order parameter. Finally, we also show how to obtain an improved estimate of the order parameter in gapless systems, with the 2D Heisenberg model as an example.

``Alternative $N=(4,0)$ Superstring and $\s$-Models''

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We present an alternative $N=(4,0)$ superstring theory, with field content different from that of previously-known $N=(4,0)$ superstring theories. This theory is presented as a non-linear $\s$-model on the coset $SU(n,1) / SU(n) \otimes U(1)$ as the target space-time with torsion, which is coupled to $N=(4,0)$ world-sheet superconformal gravity. Our result indicates that the target space-time for $N=4$ superstring theory does not necessarily have to be a hyper-Kähler or quaternionic Kähler manifold.

description: A new dimension function on countable-dimensional algebras (over a field) is described. Its dimension values for finitely generated algebras exactly fill the unit interval $[0,1]$. Since the free algebra on two generators turns out to have dimension 0 (although conceivably some Noetherian algebras might have positive dimension!), this dimension function promises to distinguish among algebras of infinite GK-dimension.

Trapped surfaces and spherical closed cosmologies

description: This article gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the formation of trapped surfaces in spherically symmetric initial data defined on a closed manifold. Such trapped surfaces surround a region in which there occurs an enhancement of matter over the average. The conditions are posed directly in terms of physical variables and show that what one needs is a relatively large amount of excess matter confined to a small volume. The expansion of the universe and an outward flow of matter oppose the formation of trapped surfaces; an inward flow of matter helps. The model can be regarded as a Friedmann-Lema\^ıtre-Walker cosmology with localized spherical inhomogeneities. We show that the total excess mass cannot be too large.

description: Heavy ion collisions quickly form a droplet of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) with a remarkably small viscosity. We give an accessible introduction to how to study this smallest and hottest droplet of liquid made on earth and why it is so interesting. The physics of heavy ions ranges from highly energetic quarks and gluons described by perturbative QCD to a bath of strongly interacting gluons at lower energy scales. These gluons quickly thermalize and form QGP, while the energetic partons traverse this plasma and end in a shower of particles called jets. Analyzing the final particles in a variety of different ways allows us to study the properties of QGP and the complex dynamics of multi-scale processes in QCD which govern its formation and evolution, providing what is perhaps the simplest form of complex quantum matter that we know of. Much remains to be understood, and throughout the review big open questions will be encountered.

description: Accurate and robust segmentation of abdominal organs on CT is essential for many clinical applications such as computer-aided diagnosis and computer-aided surgery. But this task is challenging due to the weak boundaries of organs, the complexity of the background, and the variable sizes of different organs. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel framework for multi-organ segmentation by using organ-attention networks with reverse connections (OAN-RCs) which are applied to 2D views, of the 3D CT volume, and output estimates which are combined by statistical fusion exploiting structural similarity. OAN is a two-stage deep convolutional network, where deep network features from the first stage are combined with the original image, in a second stage, to reduce the complex background and enhance the discriminative information for the target organs. RCs are added to the first stage to give the lower layers semantic information thereby enabling them to adapt to the sizes of different organs. Our networks are trained on 2D views enabling us to use holistic information and allowing efficient computation. To compensate for the limited cross-sectional information of the original 3D volumetric CT, multi-sectional images are reconstructed from the three different 2D view directions. Then we combine the segmentation results from the different views using statistical fusion, with a novel term relating the structural similarity of the 2D views to the original 3D structure. To train the network and evaluate results, 13 structures were manually annotated by four human raters and confirmed by a senior expert on 236 normal cases. We tested our algorithm and computed Dice-Sorensen similarity coefficients and surface distances for evaluating our estimates of the 13 structures. Our experiments show that the proposed approach outperforms 2D- and 3D-patch based state-of-the-art methods.

description: Marine derived rare actinomycetes is emerging as one of the new sources for various natural products for further drug discovery. Dimeric indole alkaloids represent a group of structurally diverse natural products and N-N linkage is a special dimerization mode. Here, we report the isolation of 1,1'-([1,1'-biindole]-3,3'-diyl) bis (ethane-1,2-diol), a new tryptophan-derived indole alkaloid from the marine sponge-derived Kocuria sp. S42. The structure was established based on extensive spectroscopic analyses, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass (HR-ESI-MS) spectrometry. The new dimeric indole alkaloid via N-N linkage exhibits moderate antimicrobial activity.

description: Aims. We aim to investigate if the environment (characterised by the host dark matter halo mass) plays any role in shaping the galaxy star formation main sequence (MS). Methods. The Galaxy and Mass Assembly project (GAMA) combines a spectroscopic survey with photometric information in 21 bands from the far-ultraviolet (FUV) to the far-infrared (FIR). Stellar masses and dust-corrected star-formation rates (SFR) are derived from spectral energy distribution (SED) modelling using MAGPHYS. We use the GAMA galaxy group catalogue to examine the variation of the fraction of star-forming galaxies (SFG) and properties of the MS with respect to the environment. Results. We examine the environmental dependence for stellar mass selected samples without preselecting star-forming galaxies and study any dependence on the host halo mass separately for centrals and satellites out to z ~ 0.3. We find the SFR distribution at fixed stellar mass can be described by the combination of two Gaussians (referred to as the star-forming Gaussian and the quiescent Gaussian). Using the observed bimodality to define SFG, we investigate how the fraction of SFG F(SFG) and properties of the MS change with environment. For centrals, the position of the MS is similar to the field but with a larger scatter. No significant dependence on halo mass is observed. For satellites, the position of the MS is almost always lower (by ~0.2 dex) compared to the field and the width is almost always larger. F(SFG) is similar between centrals (in different halo mass bins) and field galaxies. However, for satellites F(SFG) decreases with increasing halo mass and this dependence is stronger towards lower redshift.
