description: In discrete logarithm based cryptography, a method by Pohlig and Hellman allows solving the discrete logarithm problem efficiently if the group order is known and has no large prime factors. The consequence is that such groups are avoided. In the past, there have been proposals for cryptography based on cyclic infrastructures. We will show that the Pohlig-Hellman method can be adapted to certain cyclic infrastructures, which similarly implies that certain infrastructures should not be used for cryptography. This generalizes a result by Müller, Vanstone and Zuccherato for infrastructures obtained from hyperelliptic function fields. We recall the Pohlig-Hellman method, define the concept of a cyclic infrastructure and briefly describe how to obtain such infrastructures from certain function fields of unit rank one. Then, we describe how to obtain cyclic groups from discrete cyclic infrastructures and how to apply the Pohlig-Hellman method to compute absolute distances, which is in general a computationally hard problem for cyclic infrastructures. Moreover, we give an algorithm which allows to test whether an infrastructure satisfies certain requirements needed for applying the Pohlig-Hellman method, and discuss whether the Pohlig-Hellman method is applicable in infrastructures obtained from number fields. Finally, we discuss how this influences cryptography based on cyclic infrastructures.

Pulsed molecular beam cavity microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy of some fundamental van der Waals dimers and trimers
Creators: name: Xu, Yunjie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The pure rotational spectra of several van der Waals dimers and trimers, namely Ar-Cl₂, Ne-Kr, Ne-Xe, Ar-Xe, Kr-Xe, Ne₂-Kr and Ne₂-Xe, as well as Ar₂-OCS and Ar₂-CO₂, have been investigated using a pulsed molecular beam cavity microwave Fourier transform spectrometer. Ar-Cl₂ has been found to have a T-shaped geometry dominated by pairwise additive forces, in contrast to the previously studied linear complex Ar-ClF. An effective van der Waals bond distance has been obtained, as well as an average vibrational angle for Cl₂. This study has not only confirmed the structure obtained from electronic spectroscopy, but has also provided a reliable estimate of the ³⁵Cl nuclear quadrupole coupling constant in the free chlorine molecule. In the microwave investigation of four mixed rare gas dimers, the newest available mixed rare gas pair potentials have been adjusted to obtain the equilibrium distances (re) between the rare gas atoms. The results have been compared with those obtained from isotopic data. It has been found that the present literature re values for these dimers had been underestimated in the order of 1~2%. The quadrupole coupling constants of ⁸³Kr and ¹³¹Xe have been determined for several different species containing these nuclei. The magnitudes of these constants are in the order of several hundreds of kHz, which are surprisingly large. The induced dipole moments are estimated to be in the order of 0.01 D. Transitions of four isotopomers of ²⁰Ne₂-Kr and of six isotopomers of ²⁰Ne₂-Xe, all with C₂v symmetry, as well as two mixed isotopomers of ²⁰Ne²²Ne-Kr, have been measured. A recent theoretical model derived for such floppy systems has been used to obtain structural parameters. The structures, harmonic force constants, ⁸³Kr and ¹³¹Xe nuclear quadrupole coupling constants and dipole moments have been compared with the corresponding parameters of the dimers. Possible nonpairwise additive contributions to these properties have been deduced from deviations of the experimental values from those obtained from corresponding dimers assuming pairwise additivity. The complexes Ar₂-OCS and Ar₂-CO₂ have been found to have distorted tetrahedral geometries (C₂ and C₂v symmetry, respectively), with the linear molecule lying in the symmetry plane. Harmonic force field analyses have been performed for Ar₂-OCS and Ar₂-CO₂. The structures and force constants obtained indicate a dominance of pairwise additivity. The basic geometric trend in Ar₂-molecule trimers is discussed.

description: Mesoscopic loop is proposed in many works as possible solid-state quantum bit, i.e. two-state quantum system. The quantum oscillations of resistance and of rectified voltage observed on asymmetric superconducting loops give evidence of the two states at magnetic flux divisible by half of the flux quantum. But our measurements of quantum oscillations of the critical current of these loops have given results coming into irreconcilable contradictions with result of the observations of the quantum oscillations of resistance.

description: Cryptoassets such as cryptocurrencies and tokens are increasingly traded on decentralized exchanges. The advantage for users is that the funds are not in custody of a centralized external entity. However, these exchanges are prone to manipulative behavior. In this paper, we illustrate how wash trading activity can be identified on two of the first popular limit order book-based decentralized exchanges on the Ethereum blockchain, IDEX and EtherDelta. We identify a lower bound of accounts and trading structures that meet the legal definitions of wash trading, discovering that they are responsible for a wash trading volume in equivalent of 159 million U.S. Dollars. While self-trades and two-account structures are predominant, complex forms also occur. We quantify these activities, finding that on both exchanges, more than 30\% of all traded tokens have been subject to wash trading activity. On EtherDelta, 10% of the tokens have almost exclusively been wash traded. All data is made available for future research. Our findings underpin the need for countermeasures that are applicable in decentralized systems.

description: We carry on a new analysis of the sample of MACHO microlensing candidates towards the LMC. Our main purpose is to determine the lens population to which the events may belong. We give particular emphasis to the possibility of characterizing the Milky Way dark matter halo population with respect to the LMC one. Indeed, we show that only a fraction of the events have characteristics that match those expected for lenses belonging to the MACHO population of the Milky Way halo. This suggests that this component cannot explain all the candidates. Accordingly, we challenge the view that the dark matter halo fraction of both the Milky Way and the LMC halos are equal, and indeed we show that, for a MACHO mass in the range 0.1-0.3 M$_\odot$, the LMC halo fraction can be significantly larger than the Milky Way one. In this perspective, our main conclusion is that up to about half of the observed events could be attributed to the LMC MACHO dark matter halo.

description: We provide and experimentally demonstrate an accreditation protocol that upper-bounds the variation distance between noisy and noiseless probability distributions of the outputs of arbitrary quantum computations. We accredit the outputs of twenty-four quantum circuits executed on programmable superconducting hardware, ranging from depth nine circuits on ten qubits to depth twenty-one circuits on four qubits. Our protocol requires implementing the "target" quantum circuit along with a number of random Clifford circuits and subsequently post-processing the outputs of these Clifford circuits. Importantly, the number of Clifford circuits is chosen to obtain the bound with the desired confidence and accuracy, and is independent of the size and nature of the target circuit. We thus demonstrate a practical and scalable method of ascertaining the correctness of the outputs of arbitrary-sized noisy quantum computers--the ultimate arbiter of the utility of the computer itself.

description: High-harmonic generation (HHG) provides short-wavelength light that is useful for precision spectroscopy and probing ultrafast dynamics. We report efficient, phase-coherent harmonic generation up to 9th-order (333 nm) in chirped periodically poled lithium niobate waveguides driven by phase-stable $\leq$12-nJ, 100 fs pulses at 3 $μ$m with 100 MHz repetition rate. A mid-infrared to ultraviolet-visible conversion efficiency as high as 10% is observed, amongst an overall 23% conversion of the fundamental to all harmonics. We verify the coherence of the harmonic frequency combs despite the complex highly nonlinear process. Numerical simulations based on a single broadband envelope equation with quadratic nonlinearity give estimates for the conversion efficiency within approximately 1 order of magnitude over a wide range of experimental parameters. From this comparison we identify a dimensionless parameter capturing the competition between three-wave mixing and group-velocity walk-off of the harmonics that governs the cascaded HHG physics. These results can inform cascaded HHG in a range of different platforms.

The Effect of Object-Oriented Programming Expertise in Several Dimensions of Comprehension Strategies

Subjects: subject: Human-Computer Interaction (cs.HC)

description: This study analyzes object-oriented (OO) program comprehension by experts and novices. We examine the effect of expertise in three dimensions of comprehension strategies: the scope of the comprehension, the top-down versus bottom-up direction of the processes, and the guidance of the comprehension activity. Overall, subjects were similar in the scope of their comprehension, although the experts tended to consult more files. We found strong evidence of top-down, inference-driven behaviors, as well as multiple guidance in expert comprehension. We also found evidence of execution-based guidance and less use of top-down processes in novice comprehension. Guidance by inheritance and composition relationships in the OO program was not dominant, but nevertheless played a substantial role in expert program comprehension. However, these static relationships more closely tied to the OO nature of the program were exploited poorly by novices. To conclude, these results are discussed with respect to the literature on procedural program comprehension.

It has been very successful in opening new classes of Hamiltonians to the study with ultracold atoms in optical lattices, such as artificial gauge fields, topological band structures and density-dependent tunneling. Furthermore, driven systems provide new physics without static counterpart such as anomalous Floquet topological insulators. In this review article, we provide an overview of the exciting developments in the field and discuss the current challenges and perspectives.

description: We show that the observed primordial perturbations can be entirely sourced by a light spectator scalar field with a quartic potential, akin to the Higgs boson, provided that the field is sufficiently displaced from vacuum during inflation. The framework relies on the indirect modulation of reheating, which is implemented without any direct coupling between the spectator field and the inflaton and does not require non-renormalisable interactions. The scenario gives rise to local non-Gaussianity with $f_{\rm NL}\simeq 5$ as the typical signal. As an example model where the indirect modulation mechanism is realised for the Higgs boson, we study the Standard Model extended with right-handed neutrinos. For the Standard Model running we find, however, that the scenario analysed does not seem to produce the observed perturbation.

Factoring 2048-bit RSA Integers in 177 Days with 13436 Qubits and a Multimode Memory

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021

description: We analyze the performance of a quantum computer architecture combining a small processor and a storage unit. By focusing on integer factorization, we show a reduction by several orders of magnitude of the number of processing qubits compared with a standard architecture using a planar grid of qubits with nearest-neighbor connectivity. This is achieved by taking advantage of a temporally and spatially multiplexed memory to store the qubit states between processing steps. Concretely, for a characteristic physical gate error rate of $10^{-3}$, a processor cycle time of 1 microsecond, factoring a 2048-bit RSA integer is shown to be possible in 177 days with 3D gauge color codes assuming a threshold of 0.75 % with a processor made with 13436 physical qubits and a memory that can store 28 million spatial modes and 45 temporal modes with 2 hours' storage time. By inserting additional error-correction steps, storage times of 1 second are shown to be sufficient at the cost of increasing the run-time by about 23 %. Shorter run-times (and storage times) are achievable by increasing the number of qubits in the processing unit. We suggest realizing such an architecture using a microwave interface between a processor made with superconducting qubits and a multiplexed memory using the principle of photon echo in solids doped with rare-earth ions.

description: New evaluation of the relativistic effects in the double production of $S$-wave charmonium states is performed on the basis of perturbative QCD and the relativistic quark model. The main improvement consists in the exact account of properties of the relativistic meson wave functions. For the gluon and quark propagators entering the production vertex function we use a truncated expansion in the ratio of the relative quark momenta to the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$ up to the second order. The exact relativistic treatment of the wave functions makes all such second order terms convergent, thus allowing the reliable calculation of their contributions to the production cross section. Compared to the nonrelativistic calculation we obtain a significant increase of the cross sections for the $S$-wave double charmonium production. This brings new theoretical results in good agreement with the available experimental data.

description: Credit networks rely on decentralized, pairwise trust relationships (channels) to exchange money or goods. Credit networks arise naturally in many financial systems, including the recent construct of payment channel networks in blockchain systems. An important performance metric for these networks is their transaction throughput. However, predicting the throughput of a credit network is nontrivial. Unlike traditional communication channels, credit channels can become imbalanced; they are unable to support more transactions in a given direction once the credit limit has been reached. This potential for imbalance creates a complex dependency between a network's throughput and its topology, path choices, and the credit balances (state) on every channel. Even worse, certain combinations of these factors can lead the credit network to deadlocked states where no transactions can make progress. In this paper, we study the relationship between the throughput of a credit network and its topology and credit state. We show that the presence of deadlocks completely characterizes a network's throughput sensitivity to different credit states. Although we show that identifying deadlocks in an arbitrary topology is NP-hard, we propose a peeling algorithm inspired by decoding algorithms for erasure codes that upper bounds the severity of the deadlock. We use the peeling algorithm as a tool to compare the performance of different topologies as well as to aid in the synthesis of topologies robust to deadlocks.

description: Polariton emission from optical cavities integrated with various luminophores has been extensively studied recently due to the wide variety of possible applications in photonics, particularly promising in terms of fabrication of low-threshold sources of coherent emission. Tuneable microcavities allow extensive investigation of the photophysical properties of matter placed inside the cavity by deterministically changing the coupling strength and controllable switching from weak to strong and ultra-strong coupling regimes. Here we demonstrate room temperature strong coupling of exciton transitions in CdSe/ZnS/CdS/ZnS colloidal quantum dots with the optical modes of a tuneable low-mode-volume microcavity. Strong coupling is evidenced by a large Rabi splitting of the photoluminescence spectra depending on the detuning of the microcavity. A coupling strength of 154 meV has been achieved. High quantum yields, excellent photostability, and scalability of fabrication of QDs paves the way to practical applications of coupled systems based on colloidal QDs in photonics, optoelectronics, and sensing.

description: It is shown that the convective instability in electron fluids in three- and two-dimensional (3D and 2D) Dirac and Weyl semimetals is strongly inhibited. The major obstacles for electron convection are the effects of the Coulomb forces and the momentum relaxation related to the interaction with impurities and phonons. The effect of the Coulomb forces is less pronounced in 2D materials, such as graphene. However, momentum relaxation still noticeably inhibits convection making it very difficult to achieve in practice.

description: We propose a means to discriminate between the two basic variants of Little Higgs models, the Product Group and Simple Group models, at the next generation of colliders. It relies on a special coupling of light pseudoscalar particles present in Little Higgs models, the pseudo-axions, to the Z and the Higgs boson, which is present only in Simple Group models. We discuss the collider phenomenology of the pseudo-axion in the presence of such a coupling at the LHC, where resonant production and decay of either the Higgs or the pseudo-axion induced by that coupling can be observed for much of parameter space. The full allowed range of parameters, including regions where the observability is limited at the LHC, is covered by a future ILC, where double scalar production would be a golden channel to look for.

description: To induce intrinsic magnetism in the nominally nonmagnetic carbon materials containing only $s$ and $p$ electrons is an intriguing yet challenging task. Here, based on first-principles electronic structure calculations, we propose a universal approach inspired by Ovchinnikov's rule to guide us the design of a series of imaginative magnetic all-carbon structures. The idea is to combine the differently stacked graphene layers via the acetylenic linkages (-C$\equiv$C-) to obtain a class of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) carbon networks. With first-principles electronic structure calculations, we confirm the effectiveness of this approach via concrete examples of double-layer ALBG-C14, triple-layer ALTG-C22, and bulk IALG-C30. We show that these materials are antiferromagnetic (AFM) semiconductors with intralayer Néel and interlayer AFM couplings. According to the above idea, our work not only provides a promising design scheme for magnetic all-carbon materials, but also can apply to other $π$-bonding network systems.

description: A new connection between structure and dynamics in glass-forming liquids is presented. We show how the origin of spatially localized excitations, as defined by dynamical facilitation (DF) theory, can be understood from a structure-based framework. This framework is constructed by associating excitation events in DF theory to hopping events between energy minima in the potential energy landscape (PEL). By reducing the PEL to an equal energy well picture and applying a harmonic approximation, we develop a field theory to describe elastic fluctuations about inherent states, which are energy minimizing configurations of the PEL. We model an excitation as a shear transformation zone (STZ) inducing a localized pure shear deformation onto an inherent state. We connect STZs to T1 transition events that break the elastic bonds holding the local structure of an inherent state. A formula for the excitation energy barrier, denoted as $J_σ$, is obtained as a function of inherent-state elastic moduli and radial distribution function. The energy barrier from the current theory is compared to one predicted by the DF theory where good agreement is found in various two-dimensional continuous poly-disperse atomistic models of glass formers. These results strengthen the role of structure and elasticity in driving glassy dynamics through the creation and relaxation of localized excitations.

Polynomial-time algorithms are provided for: non-trivial umodule test, maximal umodule computation, and decomposition tree computation when the tree exists. Our results unify many known decomposition like modular and bi-join decomposition of graphs, and a new decomposition of tournaments.

description: We revisit constraints on annihilating dark matter based on the global 21cm signature observed by EDGES. For this purpose, we used the numerical data of the latest N-body simulation performed by state-of-the-art standard in order to estimate the boost factor at high redshifts ($z$ = 10 - 100), which enhances the annihilation of dark matter in course of structure formation. By taking into account to what fraction injected energy from dark matter annihilation contributes to ionization, excitation and heating of intergalactic medium during dark ages, we estimated how large the global 21cm absorption can be. By assuming the thermal freezeout scenario, we find that $m_{\rm DM} < 15$ GeV and $m_{\rm DM} < 3$ GeV have been excluded at 95$\%$ C.L. for the annihilation modes into $b\bar{b}$ and $e^+ e^-$, respectively.

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper presents an empirical study of the software reuse activity by expert designers in the context of object-oriented design. Our study focuses on the three following aspects of reuse : (1) the interaction between some design processes, e.g. constructing a problem representation, searching for and evaluating solutions, and reuse processes, i.e. retrieving and using previous solutions, (2) the mental processes involved in reuse, e.g. example-based retrieval or bottom-up versus top-down expanding of the solution, and (3) the mental representations constructed throughout the reuse activity, e.g. dynamic versus static representations. Some implications of these results for the specification of software reuse support environments are discussed.
Negotiation in collaborative assessment of design solutions: an empirical study on a Concurrent Engineering process

description: In Concurrent engineering, design solutions are not only produced by individuals specialized in a given field. Due to the team nature of the design activity, solutions are negotiated. Our objective is to analyse the argumentation processes leading to these negotiated solutions. These processes take place in the meetings which group together specialists with a co-design aim. We conducted cognitive ergonomics research work during the definition phase of an aeronautical design project in which the participants work in Concurrent Engineering. We recorded, retranscribed and analysed 7 multi-speciality meetings. These meetings were organised, as needed, to assess the integration of the solutions of each speciality into a global solution. We found that there are three main design proposal assessment modes which can be combined in these meetings: (a) analytical assessment mode, (b) comparative assessment mode (c) analogical assessment mode. Within these assessment modes, different types of arguments are used. Furthermore we found a typical temporal negotiation process.
Biological and synthetic membranes: What can be learned from a coarse-grained description?

description: We discuss the role coarse-grained models play in the investigation of the structure and thermodynamics of bilayer membranes, and we place them in the context of alternative approaches. Because they reduce the degrees of freedom and employ simple and soft effective potentials, coarse-grained models can provide rather direct insight into collective phenomena in membranes on large time and length scales. We present a summary of recent progress in this rapidly evolving field, and pay special attention to model development and computational techniques. Applications of coarse-grained models to changes of the membrane topology are illustrated with studies of membrane fusion utilizing simulations and self-consistent field theory.

description: We study an RF SQUID, in which a section of the loop is a freely suspended beam that is allowed to oscillate mechanically. The coupling between the RF SQUID and the mechanical resonator originates from the dependence of the total magnetic flux threading the loop on the displacement of the resonator. Motion of the latter affects the visibility of Rabi oscillations between the two lowest energy states of the RF SQUID. We address the feasibility of experimental observation of decoherence and recoherence, namely decay and rise of the visibility, in such a system.

Local Strong Coupling Pairing in $D$-Wave Superconductor with Inhomogeneous Bosonic Modes

description: Recent local tunneling data indicate strong nanoscale inhomogeneity of superconducting gap in high temperature superconductors. Strong local nanoscale inhomogeneity in the bosonic scattering mode has also been observed in the same samples. We argue that these two inhomogeneities directly related to each other. To address local boson scattering effects, we develop a local strong coupling model of superconducting pairing in a coarse grained superconducting state. Each patch is characterized by local coupling to the bosonic mode as well as by local mode energy. We find that local gap value on each patch grows with the local strength of electron-boson interaction. At the same time local gap value decreases with the local boson mode energy, an observation consistent with the tunneling experiments. We argue that features in the tunneling spectrum due to boson scattering are consistent with experimentally observed spectra. We also address the $^{16}O$ to $^{18}O$ isotope substitution. Since both coupling constant and boson energy could change upon isotope substitution, we prove that interplay between these two effects can produce results that are very different from conventional BCS model.

description: The size estimates approach for Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) allows for estimating the size (area or volume) of an unknown inclusion in an electrical conductor by means of one pair of boundary measurements of voltage and current. In this paper we show by numerical simulations how to obtain such bounds for practical application of the method. The computations are carried out both in a 2D and a 3D setting.

description: Modular symmetry offers the possibility to provide an origin of discrete flavour symmetry and to break it along particular symmetry preserving directions without introducing flavons or driving fields. It is also possible to use a weighton field to account for charged fermion mass hierarchies rather than a Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism. Such an approach can be applied to flavoured Grand Unified Theories (GUTs) which can be greatly simplified using modular forms. As an example, we consider a modular version of a previously proposed $S_4\times SU(5)$ GUT, with Gatto-Sartori-Tonin and Georgi-Jarlskog relations, in which all flavons and driving fields are removed, with their effect replaced by modular forms with moduli assumed to be at various fixed points, rendering the theory much simpler. In the neutrino sector there are two right-handed neutrinos constituting a Littlest Seesaw model satisfying Constrained Sequential Dominance (CSD) where the two columns of the Dirac neutrino mass matrix are proportional to $(0,1, -1)$ and $(1, n, 2-n)$ respectively, and $n=1+\sqrt{6}\approx 3.45$ is prescribed by the modular symmetry, with predictions subject to charged lepton mixing corrections. We perform a numerical analysis, showing quark and lepton mass and mixing correlations around the best fit points.

description: This thesis analyses the contestation of signifying practices surrounding FPI in its relation to the discourse of Islamic radicalism and the construction of Islamic identity. Analysing the textual and visual argumentations on fpi.or.id, the articles and comments on three online media: vivanews.com, tempo.co, and detik.com, this thesis explores identity construction and discourse complexity. The result
 shows that the discourse of Islamic radicalism and the existence of FPI in Indonesian public space are complex. The complexity is related to the contestation between national identity and Islamic identity. This complexity occurs both in
 offline and online context.

description: Neuromorphic computing aims to mimic the architecture of the human brain to carry out computational tasks that are challenging and much more energy consuming for standard hardware. Despite progress in several fields of physics and engineering, the realization of artificial neural networks which combine high operating speeds with fast and low-energy adaptability remains a challenge. Here we demonstrate an opto-magnetic neural network capable of learning and classification of digitized 3x3 characters exploiting local storage in the magnetic material. Using picosecond laser pulses, we find that micrometer sized synapses absorb well below 100 picojoule per synapse per laser pulse, with favorable scaling to smaller spatial dimensions. We thus succeeded in combining the speed and low-dissipation of optical networks with the low-energy adaptability and non-volatility of magnetism, providing a promising approach to fast and energy-efficient neuromorphic computing.
