description: We present a sub-kpc localization of the sites of supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth in three active galactic nuclei (AGN) at $z \sim 3$ in relation to the regions of intense star formation in their hosts. These AGNs are selected from Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) and Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations in the HUDF and COSMOS, with the centimetric radio emission tracing both star formation and AGN, and the sub/millimeter emission by dust tracing nearly pure star formation. We require radio emission to be $\geqslant5\times$ more luminous than the level associated with the sub/millimeter star formation to ensure that the radio emission is AGN-dominated, thereby allowing localization of the AGN and star formation independently. In all three galaxies, the AGN are located within the compact regions of gas-rich, heavily obscured, intense nuclear star formation, with $R_e = 0.4-1.1$ kpc and average star formation rates of $\simeq100-1200$ $M_\odot$yr$^{-1}$. If the current episode of star formation continues at such a rate over the stellar mass doubling time of their hosts, $\simeq 0.2$ Gyr, the newly formed stellar mass will be of the order of $10^{11}$ $M_\odot$ within the central kpc region, concurrently and cospatially with significant growth of the SMBH. This is consistent with a picture of in-situ galactic bulge and SMBH formation. This work demonstrates the unique complementarity of VLA and ALMA observations to unambiguously pinpoint the locations of AGN and star formation down to $\simeq30$ mas, corresponding to $\simeq 230$ pc at $z = 3$.

description: The multipole expansion has found limited applicability for optical dielectric resonators in inhomogeneous environment, such as on the surface of substrates. Here, we generalize the method of images to multipole analysis for light scattering by dielectric nanoparticles on conductive substrates. We present examples illustrating the physical insight provided by our method, including selection rules governing the excitation of the multipoles. We propose and experimentally demonstrate a new mechanism to generate high resolution surface color. The dielectric resonators employed are very thin (less than 50 nm), i.e. similar in thickness to the plasmonic resonators that are currently being investigated for structural color. The generalized method of images opens up new prospects for design and analysis of metasurfaces and optical dielectric resonators.

description: We present the design, proof theory and metatheory of a logic for representing and reasoning about authorization policies. A salient feature of the logic, BL, is its support for system state in the form of interpreted predicates, upon which authorization policies often rely. In addition, BL includes Abadi et al.’s “says” connective and explicit time. BL is illustrated through a case study of policies for sharing sensitive information created in the U.S. intelligence community. We discuss design choices in the interaction between state and other features of BL and validate BL’s proof theory by proving standard metatheoretic properties like admissibility of cut.

description: In this paper, we investigate the prospects of measuring the strong and weak dipole moments of the top quark at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Measurements of these couplings provide an excellent opportunity to probe new physics interactions as they have quite small magnitudes in the Standard Model. Our analyses are through studying the production cross sections of $t\bar{t}WW$ and $t\bar{t}ZZ$ processes in the same sign dilepton and four-lepton final states, respectively. The sensitivities to strong and weak top quark dipole interactions at the $95\%$ confidence level for various integrated luminosity scenarios are derived and compared with other studies. In addition to using the total cross sections, a novel handle based on an angular observable is introduced which is found to be sensitive to variations of the top quark strong dipole moments. We also investigate the sensitivity of the invariant mass of the system to the strong and weak dipole moments of the top quark.

description: We present a framework for model checking concurrent software systems which incorporates both states and events. Contrary to other state/event approaches, our work also integrates two powerful verification techniques, counterexample-guided abstraction refinement and compositional reasoning. Our specification language is a state/event extension of linear temporal logic, and allows us to express many properties of software in a concise and intuitive manner. We show how standard automata-theoretic LTL model checking algorithms can be ported to our framework at no extra cost, enabling us to directly benefit from the large body of research on efficient LTL verification. We have implemented this work within our concurrent C model checker, MAGIC, and checked a number of properties of OpenSSL-0.9.6c (an open-source implementation of the SSL protocol) and Micro-C OS version 2 (a real-time operating system for embedded applications). Our experiments show that this new approach not only eases the writing of specifications, but also yields important gains both in space and in time during verification. In certain cases, we even encountered specifications that could not be verified using traditional pure event-based or state-based approaches, but became tractable within our state/event framework. We report a bug in the source code of Micro-C OS version 2, which was found during our experiments.

description: Field and hand sample descriptions were supplemented with petrographic and textural analyses derived from thin sections, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to determine environments of deposition for the late Precambrian Gibi Mountain Formation, Liberia, Tabe

Formation, Sierra Leone, and the basal Mali Group, Senegal, West Africa.

The Gibi Mountain Formation consists of a glaciomarine tillite, marine laminites with dropgrains, and shallow water arkoses. A shale facies remains unresolved in origin.

The Tabe Formation is composed of three members: Tibai, Dodo, and Taban. The Tibai Member contains a glaciomarine tillite deposited in a shallow shelf marine environment, marine laminites, and shallow water arkoses. The Dodo Member consists of shallow water arkoses, and the Taban Member consists of arkoses derived from the Guinea-Senegal area deposited in a fluvial braided stream environment.

The basal Mali Group consists of shallow shelf glaciomarine tillites and shallow water arkoses.

These interpretations suggest that the southwestern margin of the West African Craton experienced widespread glaciation during the late Precambrian. The glacigenic interpretation for the Gibi Mountain Formation extends the known range of late Precambrian glacigenic sediments in West Africa. It is suggested that the Gibi Mountain Formation was possibly deposited in an extension of the depositional basin of the Rokel River Group to the north in Sierra Leone. If true, this extends the basin of deposition another 200 km south.
The Stability of an Expanding Circular Cavity and the Failure of Amorphous Solids

description: Recently, the existence and properties of unbounded cavity modes, resulting in extensive plastic deformation failure of two-dimensional sheets of amorphous media, were discussed in the context of the athermal Shear-Transformation-Zones (STZ) theory. These modes pertain to perfect circular symmetry of the cavity and the stress conditions. In this paper we study the shape stability of the expanding circular cavity against perturbations, in both the unbounded and the bounded growth regimes (for the latter the unperturbed theory predicts no catastrophic failure). Since the unperturbed reference state is time dependent, the linear stability theory cannot be cast into standard time-independent eigenvalue analysis. The main results of our study are: (i) sufficiently small perturbations are stable, (ii) larger perturbations within the formal linear decomposition may lead to an instability; this dependence on the magnitude of the perturbations in the linear analysis is a result of the non-stationarity of the growth, (iii) the stability of the circular cavity is particularly sensitive to perturbations in the effective disorder temperature; in this context we highlight the role of the rate sensitivity of the limiting value of this effective temperature. Finally we point to the importance of the form of the stress-dependence of the rate of STZ transitions. The present analysis indicates the importance of nonlinear effects that were not taken into account yet. Even more importantly, the analysis suggests that details of the constitutive relations appearing in the theory can be constrained by the modes of macroscopic failure in these amorphous systems.

description: Abstract: "Today's Internet hosts are threatened by IP spoofing attacks and large scale Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. We propose a new defense mechanism, StackPi, which unlike previous approaches, allows the host being attacked, or its upstream ISP, to filter out attack packets and to detect spoofed source IP addresses, on a per-packet basis. In StackPi, a packet is marked deterministically by routers along its path towards the destination. Packets traveling along the same path will have the same marking so that an attack victim need only identify the StackPi marks of attack packets to filter out all further attack packets with the same marking. In addition, the victim can associate StackPi marks with source IP addresses to detect source IP address spoofing by changes in the corresponding StackPi mark. StackPi filtering can thus defend against not only DDoS attacks, but also many IP spoofing attacks -- such as TCP hijacking, and multicast source spoofing attacks. Because each complete mark fits within a single packet, the StackPi defense responds quickly to attacks and can be effective after the first attack packet in a IP spoofing attack, or after a small number of attack packets in the case of a DDoS attack. StackPi also supports incremental deployment, such that significant benefits are realized even if only one third of Internet routers implement StackPi marking. We show these results through analysis and simulations based on several real Internet topologies."

description: We calculate the differential scattering rate for thermal neutrinos in a hot and dilute gas of interacting neutrons using linear response theory. The dynamical structure factors for density and spin fluctuations of the strongly interacting neutron matter, expected in the neutrino decoupling regions of supernovae and neutron star mergers, are calculated in the virial expansion for the first time. Correlations due to nucleon-nucleon interactions are taken into account using a pseudo-potential that reproduces measured nucleon-nucleon phase shifts, and we find that attractive s-wave interactions enhance the density response and suppress the spin response of neutron matter. The net effect of neutron correlations is to strongly suppress backscattering. Moreover, we find nearly exact scaling laws for the response functions, valid for the range $T = 5 - 10$ MeV and q < 30 MeV, allowing us to obtain analytic results for the dynamic structure factors at second-order in the fugacity of the neutron gas. We find that the modification of scattering rates depends on the energy and momentum exchanged, implying that dynamical structure factors are essential to describe neutrino decoupling in supernovae and neutron star mergers.

description: Large-N phase transitions occurring in massive N=2 theories can be probed by Wilson loops in large antisymmetric representations. The logarithm of the Wilson loop is effectively described by the free energy of a Fermi distribution and exhibits second-order phase transitions (discontinuities in the second derivatives) as the size of representation varies. We illustrate the general features of antisymmetric Wilson loops on a number of examples where the phase transitions are known to occur: N=2 SQCD with various mass arrangements and N=2* theory. As a byproduct we solve planar N=2 SQCD with three independent mass parameters. This model has two effective mass scales and undergoes two phase transitions.

Stability Yields a PTAS for k-Median and k-Means Clustering

description: We consider fc-median clustering in finite metric spaces and fc-means clustering in Euclidean spaces, in the setting where k is part of the input (not a constant). For the fc-means problem, Ostrovsky et al. show that if the optimal (k - 1)-means clustering of the input is more expensive than the optimal fc-means clustering by a factor of 1/∈2, then one can achieve a (1 + f(∈))-approximation to the fc-means optimal in time polynomial in n and k by using a variant of Lloyd's algorithm. In this work we substantially improve this approximation guarantee. We show that given only the condition that the (k - 1)-means optimal is more expensive than the fc-means optimal by a factor 1 + α for some constant α > 0, we can obtain a PTAS. In particular, under this assumption, for any ∈ > 0 we achieve a (1 + ∈)-approximation to the fc-means optimal in time polynomial in n and k, and exponential in 1/e and 1/α. We thus decouple the strength of the assumption from the quality of the approximation ratio. We also give a PTAS for the fc-median problem in finite metrics under the analogous assumption as well. For fc-means, we in addition give a randomized algorithm with improved running time of no(1) (k log n)poly(1/∈,1/α) Our technique also obtains a PTAS under the assumption of Balcan et al. that all (1 + α) approximations are δ-close to a desired target clustering, in the case that all target clusters have size greater than δn and α > 0 is constant. Note that the motivation of Balcan et al. is that for many clustering problems, the objective function is only a proxy for the true goal of getting close to the target. From this perspective, our improvement is that for fc-means in Euclidean spaces we reduce the distance of the clustering found to the target from O(δ) to δ when all target clusters are large, and for fc-median we improve- - the "largeness" condition needed in to get exactly δ-close from O(δn) to δn. Our results are based on a new notion of clustering stability.
Diffusion-limited mixing by incompressible flows

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)

description: Incompressible flows can be effective mixers by appropriately advecting a passive tracer to produce small filamentation length scales. In addition, diffusion is generally perceived as beneficial to mixing due to its ability to homogenise a passive tracer. However we provided numerical evidence that, in the case where advection and diffusion are both actively present, diffusion produces nearly neutral or even negative effects by limiting the mixing effectiveness of incompressible optimal flows. This limitation appears to be due to the presence of a limiting length scale given by a generalised Batchelor length. This length scale limitation in turn affects long-term mixing rates. More specifically, we consider local-in-time flow optimisation under energy and enstrophy flow constraints with the objective of maximising mixing rate performance. We observe that, for enstrophy-bounded optimal flows, the strength of diffusion has no impact on the long-term mixing rate performance. For energy-constrained optimal flows, however an increase in the strength of diffusion decreases the mixing rate. We provide analytical lower bounds on mixing rates and length scales achievable under related constraints (point-wise bounded speed and rate-of-strain) by extending the work of Z. Lin et al. (Journal of Fluid Mech., 2011) and C.-C. Poon (Comm. in Partial Differential Equations, 1996).

description: Photometric instruments operating at far infrared to millimetre wavelengths often have broad spectral passbands (central wavelength/bandwidth ~ 3 or less), especially those operating in space. A broad passband can result in significant variation of the beam profile and aperture efficiency across the passband, effects which thus far have not generally been taken into account in the flux calibration of such instruments. With absolute calibration uncertainties associated with the brightness of primary calibration standards now in the region of 5% or less, variation of the beam properties across the passband can be a significant contributor to the overall calibration accuracy for extended emission. We present a calibration framework which takes such variations into account for both antenna-coupled and absorber-coupled focal plane architectures. The scheme covers point source and extended source cases, and also the intermediate case of a semi-extended source profile. We apply the new method to the Herschel-SPIRE space-borne photometer.

description: To study the spoken language interface in the context of a complex
problem-solving task, a group of users were asked to perform a
spreadsheet task, alternating voice and keyboard input. A total of 40
tasks were performed by each participant, the first thirty in a group
(over several days), the remaining ones a month later. The voice
spreadsheet program used in this study was extensively instrumented
to provide detailed information about the components of the inter-
action. These data, as well as analysis of the participants's ut-
terances and recognizer output, provide a fairly detailed picture of
spoken language interaction.
Although task completion by voice took longer than by keyboard,
analysis shows that users would be able to perform the spreadsheet
task faster by voice, if two key criteria could be met recognition
occurs in real-time, and the error rate is sufficiently low. This initial
experience with a spoken language system also allows us to identify
several metrics, beyond those traditionally associated with speech
recognition, that can be used to characterize system performance.

description: Unexpected features of the BaBar data on e+e- in baryon-antibaryon cross sections are discussed. These data have been collected, with unprecedented accuracy, by means of the initial state radiation technique, which is particularly suitable in giving good acceptance and energy resolution at threshold. A striking feature observed in the BaBar data is the non-vanishing cross section at threshold for all these processes. This is the expectation due to the Coulomb enhancement factor acting on a charged fermion pair. In the case of e+e- in proton-antiproton it is found that Coulomb final state interactions largely dominate the cross section and the form factor is |G^p(4M^2_p)|~1, which could be a general feature for baryons. In the case of neutral baryons an interpretation of the non-vanishing cross section at threshold is suggested, based on quark electromagnetic interaction and taking into account the asymmetry between attractive and repulsive Coulomb factors. Besides strange baryon cross sections are compared to U-spin invariance predictions.

description: A defining feature of a symmetry protected topological phase (SPT) in one-dimension is the degeneracy of the Schmidt values for any given bipartition. For the system to go through a topological phase transition separating two SPTs, the Schmidt values must either split or cross at the critical point in order to change their degeneracies. A renormalization group (RG) approach based on this splitting or crossing is proposed, through which we obtain an RG flow that identifies the topological phase transitions in the parameter space. Our approach can be implemented numerically in an efficient manner, for example, using the matrix product state formalism, since only the largest first few Schmidt values need to be calculated with sufficient accuracy. Using several concrete models, we demonstrate that the critical points and fixed points of the RG flow coincide with the maxima and minima of the entanglement entropy, respectively, and the method can serve as a numerically efficient tool to analyze interacting SPTs in the parameter space.

description: D-brane charges in orientifold string theories are classified by the KR-theory of Atiyah. However, this is assuming that all O-planes have the same sign. When there are O-planes of different signs, physics demands a "KR-theory with a sign choice" which up until now has not been studied by mathematicians (with the unique exception of Moutuou, who didn't have a specific application in mind). We give a definition of this theory and compute it for orientifold theories compactified on a circle and 2-torus. We also explain how and why additional "twisting" is implemented. We show that our results satisfy all possible T-duality relationships for orientifold string theories on elliptic curves, which will be studied further in subsequent work.

description: We present the design and implementation of a novel anti-malware system called SplitScreen. SplitScreen performs an additional screening step prior to the signature matching phase found in existing approaches. The screening step filters out most non-infected files (90%) and also identifies malware signatures that are not of interest (99%). The screening step significantly improves end-to-end performance because safe files are quickly identified and are not processed further, and malware files can subsequently be scanned using only the signatures that are necessary. Our approach naturally leads to a network-based anti-malware solution in which clients only receive signatures they needed, not every malware signature ever created as with current approaches. We have implemented SplitScreen as an extension to ClamAV [13], the most popular open source anti-malware software. For the current number of signatures, our implementation is 2x faster and requires 2x less memory than the original ClamAV. These gaps widen as the number of signatures grows.
Simulations of the Solar System's Early Dynamical Evolution with a Self-Gravitating Planetesimal Disk

description: Over the course of last decade, the Nice model has dramatically changed our view of the solar system's formation and early evolution. Within the context of this model, a transient period of planet-planet scattering is triggered by gravitational interactions between the giant planets and a massive primordial planetesimal disk, leading to a successful reproduction of the solar system's present-day architecture. In typical realizations of the Nice model, self-gravity of the planetesimal disk is routinely neglected, as it poses a computational bottleneck to the calculations. Recent analyses have shown, however, that a self-gravitating disk can exhibit behavior that is dynamically distinct, and this disparity may have significant implications for the solar system's evolutionary path. In this work, we explore this discrepancy utilizing a large suite of Nice odel simulations with and without a self-gravitating planetesimal disk, taking advantage of the inherently parallel nature of graphic processing units. Our simulations demonstrate that self-consistent modeling of particle interactions does not lead to significantly different final planetary orbits from those obtained within conventional simulations. Moreover, self-gravitating calculations show similar planetesimal evolution to non-self-gravitating numerical experiments after dynamical instability is triggered, suggesting that the orbital clustering observed in the distant Kuiper belt is unlikely to have a self-gravitational origin.

description: We explore the quasistationary regime of the Hamiltonian Mean Field Model (HMF) showing that at least three different classes of events exist, with a different diffusive behavior and with a relative frequency which depends on the size of the system. Along the same line of a recent work \cite{epl}, these results indicate that one must be very careful in exchanging time averages with ensemble averages during the non-ergodic metastable regime and at the same time they emphasize the role of finite size effects in the evaluation of the diffusive properties of the system.

description: We report on an electron spin resonance study of atomic hydrogen stabilized in a solid Ne matrices carried out at a high field of 4.6 T and temperatures below 1 K. The films of Ne, slowly deposited on the substrate at the temperature $\sim$1 K, exhibited a high degree of porosity. We found that H atoms may be trapped in two different substitutional positions in the Ne lattice as well as inside clusters of pure molecular H$_{2}$ in the pores of the Ne film. The latter type of atoms was very unstable against recombination at temperatures 0.3-0.6$\,$K. Based on the observed nearly instant decays after rapid small increase of temperature, we evaluate the lower limit of the recombination rate constant $k_{r}\geq5\cdot10^{-20}\,$cm$^{3}$s$^{-1}$ at 0.6$\,$K, five orders of magnitude larger than that previously found in the thin films of pure H$_{2}$ at the same temperature. Such behavior assumes a very high mobility of atoms and may indicate a solid-to-liquid transition for H$_{2}$ clusters of certain sizes, similar to that observed in experiments with H$_{2}$ clusters inside helium droplets (Phys. Rev. Lett 101, 205301 (2008)). We found that the efficiency of dissociation of H$_{2}$ in neon films is enhanced by 2 orders of magnitude compared to that in pure H$_{2}$, which is instigated by a strong emission of secondary electrons.

description: What is the least surface area of a shape that tiles Ropfd under translations by Zopfd? Any such shape must have volume 1 and hence surface area at least that of the volume-1 ball, namely Omega(radicd). Our main result is a construction with surface area O(radicd), matching the lower bound up to a constant factor of 2radic2pi/eap3. The best previous tile known was only slightly better than the cube, having surface area on the order of d. We generalize this to give a construction that tiles Ropfd by translations of any full rank discrete lattice Lambda with surface area 2piparV-1parfb, where V is the matrix of basis vectors of Lambda, and par.parfb denotes the Frobenius norm. We show that our bounds are optimal within constant factors for rectangular lattices. Our proof is via a random tessellation process, following recent ideas of Raz in the discrete setting. Our construction gives an almost optimal noise-resistant rounding scheme to round points in Ropfd to rectangular lattice points.

description: In this paper, we consider the problem of expediting temporal reasoning about partially ordered events in Kowalski and Sergot's Event Calculus (EC). We show how the introduction of partial ordering heavily increases the computational complexity of deriving Maximal Time Intervals (MVIs). Then, we provide a precise characterization of what EC actually does to compute MVIs, and propose a solution to do it efficiently when only incomplete information about event ordering is available.

description: While the application of IoT in smart technologies becomes more and more proliferated, the pandemonium of its protocols becomes increasingly confusing. More seriously, severe security deficiencies of these protocols become evident, as time-to- market is a key factor, which satisfaction comes at the price of a less thorough security design and testing. This applies especially to the smart home domain, where the consumer-driven market demands quick and cheap solutions. This paper presents an overview of IoT application domains and discusses the most important wireless IoT protocols for smart home, which are KNX-RF, EnOcean, Zigbee, Z-Wave and Thread. Finally, it describes the security features of said protocols and compares them with each other, giving advice on whose protocols are more suitable for a secure smart home.

description: Green and Wald have presented a mathematically rigorous framework to study, within general relativity, the effect of small scale inhomogeneities on the global structure of space-time. The framework relies on the existence of a one-parameter family of metrics that approaches the effective background metric in a certain way. Although it is not necessary to know this family in an exact form to predict properties of the backreaction effect, it would be instructive to find explicit examples. In this paper, we provide the first example of such a family of exact non-vacuum solutions to the Einstein's equations. It belongs to the Wainwright-Marshman class and satisfies all of the assumptions of the Green-Wald framework.

Disclosing $D^*\bar{D}^*$ molecular states in the $B_c^- \to π^- J/ψω$ decay

description: We study the $B_c^- \to π^- J/ψω$ and $B_c^- \to π^- D^* \bar{D}^*$ reactions and show that they are related by the presence of two resonances, the $X(3940)$ and $X(3930)$, that are of molecular nature and couple most strongly to $D^* \bar{D}^*$, but also to $J/ψω$. Because of that, in the $J/ψω$ mass distribution we find a cusp with large strength at the $D^* \bar{D}^*$ threshold and predict the ratio of strengths between the peak of the cusp and the maximum of the $D^* \bar{D}^*$ distribution close to $D^* \bar{D}^*$ threshold, which are distinct features of the molecular nature of these two resonances.
