Bundle Theoretic Descriptions of Massless Single-Particle State Spaces; How do we perceive a moving quantum particle

description: Recently, a bundle theoretic description of massive single-particle state spaces, which is better suited for Relativistic Quantum Information Theory than the ordinary Hilbert space description, has been suggested. However, the mathematical framework presented in that work does not apply to massless particles. It is because, unlike massive particles, massless particles cannot assume the zero momentum state and hence the mass shell associated with massless particles has non-trivial cohomology. To overcome this difficulty, this paper suggests a new framework that can be applied to massless particles. Applications to the cases of massless particles with spin-1 and 2, namely photon and graviton, will reveal that the field equations, the gauge conditions, and the gauge freedoms of Electromagnetism and General Relativity naturally arise as manifestations of an inertial observer's perception of the internal quantum states of a photon and a graviton, respectively. Finally, we show that gauge freedom is exhibited by all massless particles, except those with spin-0 and 1/2.

description: Diagnosing problems, deploying new services, testing protocol interactions, or validating network configurations are hard problems in today’s Internet. This paper proposes to leverage the concept of Network Virtualization to overcome such problems: (1) Monitoring VNets can be created on demand along side any production network to enable network-wide monitoring in a robust and cost-efficient manner; (2) Shadow VNets enable troubleshooting as well as safe upgrades to both the software components and their configurations. Both approaches build on the agility and isolation properties of the underlying virtualized infrastructure. Neither requires changes to the physical or logical structure of the production network. Thus, they have the potential to substantially ease network operation and improve resilience against mistakes.

description: Benefited from the advantages on environmental benign, easy purification, and high thermal stability, the recently synthesized two-dimensional (2D) material MoN2 shows great potential for clean and renewable energy applications. Here, through first-principles calculations, we show that the monolayered MoN2 is promising to be a high capacity electrode material for metal ion batteries. Firstly, identified by phonon dispersion and exfoliation energy calculations, MoN2 monolayer is proved to be structurally stable and could be exfoliated from its bulk counterpart in experiments. Secondly, all the studied metal atoms (Li, Na and K) can be adsorbed on MoN2 monolayer, with both pristine and doped MoN2 being metallic. Thirdly, the metal atoms possess moderate/low migration barriers on MoN2, which ensures excellent cycling performance as a battery electrode. In addition, the calculated average voltages suggest that MoN2 monolayer is suitable to be a cathode for Li-ion battery and anodes for Na-ion and K-ion batteries. Most importantly, as a cathode for Li-ion battery, MoN2 possesses a comparable average voltage but a 1-2 times larger capacity (432 mA h g-1) than usual commercial cathode materials; as an anode for Na-ion battery, the theoretical capacity (864 mA h g-1) of MoN2 is 2-5 times larger than typical 2D anode materials such as MoS2 and most MXenes. Finally we also provide an estimation of capacities for other transition-metal dinitrides materials. Our work suggests that the transition-metal dinitrides MoN2 is an appealing 2D electrode materials with high storage capacities.

Stellar Populations of Shell Galaxies

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: We present a study of the inner (out to $\sim$1 R$_{\mathrm{eff}}$) stellar populations of 9 shell galaxies. We derive stellar population parameters from long slit spectra by both analyzing the Lick indices of the galaxies and by fitting Single Stellar Population model spectra to the full galaxy spectra. The results from the two methods agree reasonably well. Many of the shell galaxies in our sample appear to have lower central $\mathrm{Mg}_{2}$ index values than non-shell galaxies of the same central velocity dispersion, which is likely due to a past interaction event. Our shell galaxy sample shows a relation between central metallicity and velocity dispersion that is consistent with previous samples of non-shell galaxies. Analyzing the metallicity gradients in our sample, we find an average metallicity gradient of -0.16$\pm$0.10 dex per decade in radius. We compare this with formation models to constrain the merging history of shell galaxies. We argue that our galaxies likely have undergone major mergers in their past but it is unclear whether the shells formed from these events or from separate minor mergers. Additionally, we find evidence for young stellar populations ranging in age from 500 Myr to 4--5 Gyr in four of the galaxies, allowing us to speculate on the age of the shells. For NGC 5670, we use a simple dynamical model to find the time required to produce the observed distribution of shells to be consistent with the age of the young subpopulation, suggesting that the shells likely formed from the same event that led to the young subpopulation.

Trading causal order for locality

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: Quantum theory admits ensembles of quantum nonlocality without entanglement (QNLWE). These ensembles consist of seemingly classical states (they are perfectly distinguishable and non-entangled) that cannot be perfectly discriminated with local operations and classical communication (LOCC). Here, we analyze QNLWE from a causal perspective, and show how to perfectly discriminate some of these ensembles using local operations and classical communication without definite causal order. Specifically, three parties with access to an instance of indefinite causal order-the AF/BW process-can perfectly discriminate the states in a QNLWE ensemble--the SHIFT ensemble--with local operations. Hence, this type of quantum nonlocality disappears at the expense of definite causal order while retaining classical communication. Our results thereby leverage the fact that LOCC is a conjunction of three constraints: local operations, classical communication, and definite causal order. Moreover, we show how multipartite generalizations of the AF/BW process are transformed into multiqubit ensembles that exhibit QNLWE. Such ensembles are of independent interest for cryptographic protocols and for the study of separable quantum operations unachievable with LOCC.

description: To achieve the ambitious goals of artificial intelligence, reinforcement learning must include planning with a model of the world that is abstract in state and time. Deep learning has made progress with state abstraction, but temporal abstraction has rarely been used, despite extensively developed theory based on the options framework. One reason for this is that the space of possible options is immense, and the methods previously proposed for option discovery do not take into account how the option models will be used in planning. Options are typically discovered by posing subsidiary tasks, such as reaching a bottleneck state or maximizing the cumulative sum of a sensory signal other than reward. Each subtask is solved to produce an option, and then a model of the option is learned and made available to the planning process. In most previous work, the subtasks ignore the reward on the original problem, whereas we propose subtasks that use the original reward plus a bonus based on a feature of the state at the time the option terminates. We show that option models obtained from such reward-respecting subtasks are much more likely to be useful in planning than eigenoptions, shortest path options based on bottleneck states, or reward-respecting options generated by the option-critic. Reward respecting subtasks strongly constrain the space of options and thereby also provide a partial solution to the problem of option discovery. Finally, we show how values, policies, options, and models can all be learned online and off-policy using standard algorithms and general value functions.

description: Within the rigorous axiomatic framework for the description of quantum mechanical systems with a large number of degrees of freedom, we show that the nonequilibrium steady state, constructed in the quasifree fermionic system corresponding to the isotropic XY chain in which a finite sample, coupled to two thermal reservoirs at different temperatures, is exposed to a local external magnetic field, is breaking translation invariance and exhibits a strictly positive entropy production rate. Moreover, we prove that there exists a second-order nonequilibrium quantum phase transition with respect to the strength of the magnetic field as soon as the system is truly out of equilibrium.

description: In order to understand the relation of strain and material properties, both a microscopic model connecting a given strain to the displacement of atoms, and a macroscopic model relating applied stress to induced strain, are required. Starting from a valence-force model for black phosphorous (phosphorene) [Kaneta et al., Solid State Communications, 1982, 44, 613] we use recent experimental and computational results to obtain an improved set of valence-force parameters. From the model we calculate the phonon dispersion and the elastic properties of single-layer phosphorene. Finally, we use these results to derive a complete continuum model, including the bending rigidities, valid for long-wavelength deformations of phosphorene. This continuum model is then used to study the properties of pressurized suspended phosphorene sheets.

description: Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are responsible for automating process control in many industrial systems (e.g. in manufacturing and public infrastructure), and thus it is critical to ensure that they operate correctly and safely. The majority of PLCs are programmed in languages such as Structured Text (ST). However, a lack of formal semantics makes it difficult to ascertain the correctness of their translators and compilers, which vary from vendor-to-vendor. In this work, we develop K-ST, a formal executable semantics for ST in the K framework. Defined with respect to the IEC 61131-3 standard and PLC vendor manuals, K-ST is a high-level reference semantics that can be used to evaluate the correctness and consistency of different ST implementations. We validate K-ST by executing 509 ST programs extracted from Github and comparing the results against existing commercial compilers (i.e., CODESYS, CX-Programmer, and GX Works2). We then apply K-ST to validate the implementation of the open source OpenPLC platform, comparing the executions of several test programs to uncover five bugs and nine functional defects in the compiler.

description: We explore how thermal fluctuations affect the mechanics of thin amorphous spherical shells. In flat membranes with a shear modulus, thermal fluctuations increase the bending rigidity and reduce the in-plane elastic moduli in a scale-dependent fashion. This is still true for spherical shells. However, the additional coupling between the shell curvature, the local in-plane stretching modes and the local out-of-plane undulations, leads to novel phenomena. In spherical shells thermal fluctuations produce a radius-dependent negative effective surface tension, equivalent to applying an inward external pressure. By adapting renormalization group calculations to allow for a spherical background curvature, we show that while small spherical shells are stable, sufficiently large shells are crushed by this thermally generated "pressure". Such shells can be stabilized by an outward osmotic pressure, but the effective shell size grows non-linearly with increasing outward pressure, with the same universal power law exponent that characterizes the response of fluctuating flat membranes to a uniform tension.

description: In this paper, we propose systematic and efficient gradient-based methods for both one-way and two-way partial AUC (pAUC) maximization that are applicable to deep learning. We propose new formulations of pAUC surrogate objectives by using the distributionally robust optimization (DRO) to define the loss for each individual positive data. We consider two formulations of DRO, one of which is based on conditional-value-at-risk (CVaR) that yields a non-smooth but exact estimator for pAUC, and another one is based on a KL divergence regularized DRO that yields an inexact but smooth (soft) estimator for pAUC. For both one-way and two-way pAUC maximization, we propose two algorithms and prove their convergence for optimizing their two formulations, respectively. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms for pAUC maximization for deep learning on various datasets.

We study the development of the supercontinuum along the multimode fiber by the cut-back method, which permits us to analyze the competition between the Kerr-induced geometric parametric instability and stimulated Raman scattering. We also performed a spectrally resolved temporal analysis of the supercontinuum emission.

description: A staple of Bayesian model comparison and hypothesis testing, Bayes factors are often used to quantify the relative predictive performance of two rival hypotheses. The computation of Bayes factors can be challenging, however, and this has contributed to the popularity of convenient approximations such as the BIC. Unfortunately, these approximations can fail in the case of informed prior distributions. Here we address this problem by outlining an approximation to informed Bayes factors for a focal parameter $θ$. The approximation is computationally simple and requires only the maximum likelihood estimate $\hatθ$ and its standard error. The approximation uses an estimated likelihood of $θ$ and assumes that the posterior distribution for $θ$ is unaffected by the choice of prior distribution for the nuisance parameters. The resulting Bayes factor for the null hypothesis $\mathcal{H}_0: θ= θ_0$ versus the alternative hypothesis $\mathcal{H}_1: θ\sim g(θ)$ is then easily obtained using the Savage--Dickey density ratio. Three real-data examples highlight the speed and closeness of the approximation compared to bridge sampling and Laplace's method. The proposed approximation facilitates Bayesian reanalyses of standard frequentist results, encourages application of Bayesian tests with informed priors, and alleviates the computational challenges that often frustrate both Bayesian sensitivity analyses and Bayes factor design analyses. The approximation is shown to suffer under small sample sizes and when the posterior distribution of the focal parameter is substantially influenced by the prior distributions on the nuisance parameters. The proposed methodology may also be used to approximate the posterior distribution for $θ$ under $\mathcal{H}_1$.

description: We consider the large polaron described by the Fröhlich Hamiltonian and study its energy-momentum relation defined as the lowest possible energy as a function of the total momentum. Using a suitable family of trial states, we derive an optimal parabolic upper bound for the energy-momentum relation in the limit of strong coupling. The upper bound consists of a momentum independent term that agrees with the predicted two-term expansion for the ground state energy of the strongly coupled polaron at rest, and a term that is quadratic in the momentum with coefficient given by the inverse of twice the classical effective mass introduced by Landau and Pekar.

description: Intramolecular ion-pair interactions yield shape and functionality to many molecules. With proper orientation, these interactions overcome steric factors and are responsible for the compact structures of several peptides. In this study, we present a thermodynamic cycle based on isoelectronic and alchemical mutation to estimate intramolecular ion-pair interaction energy. We determine these energies for 26 benchmark molecules with common ion-pair combinations and compare them with results obtained using intramolecular symmetry-adapted perturbation theory. For systems with long linkers, the ion-pair energies evaluated using both approaches deviate by less than 2.5% in vacuum phase. The thermodynamic cycle based on density functional theory facilitates calculations of salt-bridge interactions in model tripeptides with continuum/microsolvation modeling, and four large peptides: 1EJG (crambin), 1BDK (bradykinin), 1L2Y (a mini-protein with a tryptophan cage), and 1SCO (a toxin from the scorpion venom).

description: We report a 65MHz-bandwidth triangular-shaped optical parametric oscillator (OPO) for squeezed vacuum generation at 860nm. The triangle structure of our OPO enables the round-trip length to reach 45mm as a ring cavity, which provides a counter circulating optical path available for introducing a probe beam or generating another squeezed vacuum. Hence our OPO is suitable for the applications in high-speed quantum information processing where two or more squeezed vacua form a complicated interferometer, like continuous-variable quantum teleportation. With a homemade, broadband and low-loss homodyne detector, a direct measurement shows 8.4dB of squeezing at 3MHz and also 2.4dB of squeezing at 100MHz.

description: Während der Frankfurter Adorno-Vorlesungen im Jahr 2002 konnte ich, eine Studentin im dritten Semester, der Philosophin Judith Butler im Rahmen eines Arbeitskreises eine brennende Frage stellen: Warum ihre Texte nicht stärker darauf angelegt seien, verstanden zu werden. Butler wendete sich in ihrer Antwort ernsthaft interessiert an mich und erklärte, dass ihre Texte tatsächlich nicht selbsterklärend sind – weil sie es nicht sein sollen! Denn es sei ihre Intention, dass diese in der Tradition der jüdischen Exegese erst durch Interpretation und Debatte wahrlich zum Leben erweckt würden.

description: We consider the problem of group testing (pooled testing), first introduced by Dorfman. For non-adaptive testing strategies, we refer to a non-defective item as `intruding' if it only appears in positive tests. Such items cause mis-classification errors in the well-known COMP algorithm, and can make other algorithms produce an error. It is therefore of interest to understand the distribution of the number of intruding items. We show that, under Bernoulli matrix designs, this distribution is well approximated in a variety of senses by a negative binomial distribution, allowing us to understand the performance of the two-stage conservative group testing algorithm of Aldridge.

description: Several embedded application domains for reconfigurable systems tend to combine frequent changes with high performance demands of their workloads such as image processing, wearable computing and network processors. Time multiplexing of reconfigurable hardware resources raises a number of new issues, ranging from run-time systems to complex programming models that usually form a Reconfigurable hardware Operating System (ROS). The Operating System performs online task scheduling and handles resource management. There are many challenges in adaptive computing and dynamic reconfigurable systems. One of the major understudied challenges is estimating the required resources in terms of soft cores, Programmable Reconfigurable Regions (PRRs), the appropriate communication infrastructure, and to predict a near optimal layout and floorplan of the reconfigurable logic fabric. Some of these issues are specific to the application being designed, while others are more general and relate to the underlying run-time environment. Static resource allocation for Run- Time Reconfiguration (RTR) often leads to inferior and unacceptable results. In this paper, we present a novel adaptive and dynamic methodology, based on a Machine Learning approach, for predicting and estimating the necessary resources for an application based on past historical information. An important feature of the proposed methodology is that the system is able to learn and generalize and, therefore, is expected to improve its accuracy over time. The goal of the entire process is to extract useful hidden knowledge from the data. This knowledge is the prediction and estimation of the necessary resources for an unknown or not previously seen application.

description: Because of the current COVID-19 pandemic with its increasing fears among people, it has triggered several health complications such as depression and anxiety. Such complications have not only affected the developed countries but also developing countries such as Nepal. These complications can be understood from peoples' tweets/comments posted online after their proper analysis and sentiment classification. Nevertheless, owing to the limited number of tokens/words in each tweet, it is always crucial to capture multiple information associated with them for their better understanding. In this study, we, first, represent each tweet by combining both syntactic and semantic information, called hybrid features. The syntactic information is generated from the bag of words method, whereas the semantic information is generated from the combination of the fastText-based (ft) and domain-specific (ds) methods. Second, we design a novel multi-channel convolutional neural network (MCNN), which ensembles the multiple CNNs, to capture multi-scale information for better classification. Last, we evaluate the efficacy of both the proposed feature extraction method and the MCNN model classifying tweets into three sentiment classes (positive, neutral and negative) on NepCOV19Tweets dataset, which is the only public COVID-19 tweets dataset in Nepali language. The evaluation results show that the proposed hybrid features outperform individual feature extraction methods with the highest classification accuracy of 69.7% and the MCNN model outperforms the existing methods with the highest classification accuracy of 71.3% during classification.

description: Part of a collection of letters to John Betjeman from Joe Randolph "J. R." Ackerley (writer and literary editor of the BBC's weekly magazine The Listener, and open homosexual). Ackerley tells Betjeman that if he thinks that the T. F. Reddaway's book "The rebuilding of London after the Great Fire", is too boring to review, then he should not do it. He asks Betjeman to return the book as others might find it interesting.

description: Thin films of perovskite oxides offer the possibility of combining emerging concepts of strongly correlated electron phenomena and spin current in magnetic devices. However, spin transport and magnetization dynamics in these complex oxide materials are not well understood. Here, we experimentally quantify spin transport parameters and magnetization damping in epitaxial perovskite ferromagnet/paramagnet bilayers of La$_{2/3}$Sr$_{1/3}$MnO$_3$/SrRuO$_3$ (LSMO/SRO) by broadband ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy. From the SRO thickness dependence of Gilbert damping, we estimate a short spin diffusion length of $\lesssim$1 nm in SRO and an interfacial spin-mixing conductance comparable to other ferromagnet/paramagnetic-metal bilayers. Moreover, we find that anisotropic non-Gilbert damping due to two-magnon scattering also increases with the addition of SRO. Our results demonstrate LSMO/SRO as a spin-source/spin-sink system that may be a foundation for examining spin-current transport in various perovskite heterostructures.
Remarks on the Small Cohen-Macaulay conjecture and new instances of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules

description: We show that any quasi-Gorenstein deformation of a $3$-dimensional quasi-Gorenstein Buchsbaum local ring with $I$-invariant $1$ admits a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module, provided it is a quotient of a Gorenstein ring. Such a class of rings includes two instances of unique factorization domains constructed by Marcel-Schenzel and by Imtiaz-Schenzel, respectively. Apart from this result, motivated by the small Cohen-Macaulay conjecture in prime characteristic, we examine a question about when the Frobenius pushforward $F^e_*(M)$ of an $R$-module $M$ comprises a maximal Cohen-Macaulay direct summand in both local and graded cases.

The nature of the X-ray pulsar in M31: an intermediate mass X-ray binary?

description: Recently the first finding of a spin period of an accreting neutron star in M31 is reported. The observed spin period is 1.2 s and it shows 1.27 d modulations due to orbital motion. From the orbital information, the mass donor could not be a giant massive star. On the other hand, the observed properties are quite odd for typical low mass X-ray binaries. In this study, we compare observed binary parameters with theoretical models given by a stellar evolution track and make a restriction on the possible mass range of the donor. According to the standard stellar evolution model, the donor star should be larger than 1.5 solar mass, and this suggests that this system is a new member of a rare category, intermediate mass X-ray binary. The magnetic field strength of the neutron star suggested by spin-up/down tendency in this system supports the possibility of intermediate mass donor.
