description: We present a halo-independent determination of the unmodulated signal corresponding to the DAMA modulation if interpreted as due to dark matter weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). First we show how a modulated signal gives information on the WIMP velocity distribution function in the Galactic rest frame, from which the unmodulated signal descends. Then we perform a mathematically-sound profile likelihood analysis in which we profile the likelihood over a continuum of nuisance parameters (namely, the WIMP velocity distribution). As a first application of the method, which is very general and valid for any class of velocity distributions, we restrict the analysis to velocity distributions that are isotropic in the Galactic frame. In this way we obtain halo-independent maximum-likelihood estimates and confidence intervals for the DAMA unmodulated signal. We find that the estimated unmodulated signal is in line with expectations for a WIMP-induced modulation and is compatible with the DAMA background+signal rate. Specifically, for the isotropic case we find that the modulated amplitude ranges between a few percent and about 25% of the unmodulated amplitude, depending on the WIMP mass.

Embarrassingly Parallel Inference for Gaussian Processes

description: Training Gaussian process-based models typically involves an $ O(N^3)$ computational bottleneck due to inverting the covariance matrix. Popular methods for overcoming this matrix inversion problem cannot adequately model all types of latent functions, and are often not parallelizable. However, judicious choice of model structure can ameliorate this problem. A mixture-of-experts model that uses a mixture of $K$ Gaussian processes offers modeling flexibility and opportunities for scalable inference. Our embarrassingly parallel algorithm combines low-dimensional matrix inversions with importance sampling to yield a flexible, scalable mixture-of-experts model that offers comparable performance to Gaussian process regression at a much lower computational cost.

description: A solitary wave is generated by impacting a dry chain of beads on one of its ends. Its speed depends on the speed $v_0$ of the striker and the details of the contact force. The time-of-flight (ToF) of the wave was measured as a function of $v_0$, along with the effect of adding a fluid around the contact points. The ToF displays a complex dependence on the fluid's rheological properties not seen in previous works. A power-law dependence of the ToF on $v_0$ in both, dry and wet cases was found. It turned out that the Hertz plus viscoelastic interactions are not enough to account for our results. Two phenomenological models providing a unified and accurate account of our results were developed.

description: Virtual try-on is a critical image synthesis task that aims to transfer clothes from one image to another while preserving the details of both humans and clothes. While many existing methods rely on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to achieve this, flaws can still occur, particularly at high resolutions. Recently, the diffusion model has emerged as a promising alternative for generating high-quality images in various applications. However, simply using clothes as a condition for guiding the diffusion model to inpaint is insufficient to maintain the details of the clothes. To overcome this challenge, we propose an exemplar-based inpainting approach that leverages a warping module to guide the diffusion model's generation effectively. The warping module performs initial processing on the clothes, which helps to preserve the local details of the clothes. We then combine the warped clothes with clothes-agnostic person image and add noise as the input of diffusion model. Additionally, the warped clothes is used as local conditions for each denoising process to ensure that the resulting output retains as much detail as possible. Our approach, namely Diffusion-based Conditional Inpainting for Virtual Try-ON (DCI-VTON), effectively utilizes the power of the diffusion model, and the incorporation of the warping module helps to produce high-quality and realistic virtual try-on results. Experimental results on VITON-HD demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our method.

Shrinking characteristics of precision matrix estimators

Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)

description: We propose a framework to shrink a user-specified characteristic of a precision matrix estimator that is needed to fit a predictive model. Estimators in our framework minimize the Gaussian negative loglikelihood plus an $L_1$ penalty on a linear or affine function evaluated at the optimization variable corresponding to the precision matrix. We establish convergence rate bounds for these estimators and propose an alternating direction method of multipliers algorithm for their computation. Our simulation studies show that our estimators can perform better than competitors when they are used to fit predictive models. In particular, we illustrate cases where our precision matrix estimators perform worse at estimating the population precision matrix but better at prediction.

description:
Influenza remains a major global health issue, demanding the need for more effective vaccine strategies. This thesis searches into a novel approach, employing cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) to boost influenza vaccine effectiveness. It dives into the impact of EVs on the innate immune system and their role on a cellular basis. Using cell culture and in vitro immune assays, the composition and immunomodulatory traits of EVs from antigen-presenting cells are researched. The study systematically examines the interactions between these EVs and key components of the innate immune system, unveiling the mechanisms driving their immunostimulatory effects. This research yields crucial insights into EVs' potential as immunomodulators in influenza vaccines. Additionally, determining insights into the identification and validation of adjuvants that enhance EV-mediated immune responses marks a pivotal stride toward the advancement of novel influenza vaccines, increasing their efficacy and protection against diverse viral strains.

description: The symmetry algebra of the real elliptic Liouville equation is an infinite-dimensional loop algebra with the simple Lie algebra $o(3,1)$ as its maximal finite-dimensional subalgebra. The entire algebra generates the conformal group of the Euclidean plane $E_2$. This infinite-dimensional algebra distinguishes the elliptic Liouville equation from the hyperbolic one with its symmetry algebra that is the direct sum of two Virasoro algebras. Following a discretisation procedure developed earlier, we present a difference scheme that is invariant under the group $O(3,1)$ and has the elliptic Liouville equation in polar coordinates as its continuous limit. The lattice is a solution of an equation invariant under $O(3,1)$ and is itself invariant under a subgroup of $O(3,1)$, namely the $O(2)$ rotations of the Euclidean plane.

description: A molecule is a nonzero non-unit element of an integral domain (resp., commutative cancellative monoid) having a unique factorization into irreducibles (resp., atoms). Here we study the molecules of Puiseux monoids as well as the molecules of their corresponding semigroup algebras, which we call Puiseux algebras. We begin by presenting, in the context of numerical semigroups, some results on the possible cardinalities of the sets of molecules and the sets of reducible molecules (i.e., molecules that are not irreducibles/atoms). Then we study the molecules in the more general context of Puiseux monoids. We construct infinitely many non-isomorphic atomic Puiseux monoids all whose molecules are atoms. In addition, we characterize the molecules of Puiseux monoids generated by rationals with prime denominators. Finally, we turn to investigate the molecules of Puiseux algebras. We provide a characterization of the molecules of the Puiseux algebras corresponding to root-closed Puiseux monoids. Then we use such a characterization to find an infinite class of Puiseux algebras with infinitely many non-associated reducible molecules.

description: Non-equilibrium thermodynamics and quantum information theory are interrelated research fields witnessing an increasing interest, both theoretical and experimental. This is manly due to the broadness of these theories, which found applications in many different fields of science, ranging from biology to the foundations of physics. Here, by employing the orbital angular momentum of light, we propose a new platform for studying non-equilibrium properties of high dimensional quantum systems. Specifically, we use Laguerre-Gaussian beams to emulate the energy eigenstates of a two-dimension quantum harmonic oscillator having angular momentum. These light beams are subjected to a process realized by a spatial light modulator and the corresponding work distribution is experimentally reconstructed employing a two-point measurement scheme. The Jarzynski fluctuation relation is then verified. We also demonstrate the operation of the system as a Maxwell's demon.

description: Barocaloric materials have shown to be promising alternatives to the conventional vapor-compression refrigeration technologies. Nevertheless, barocaloric effect (σb-CE) has not been extensively examined for many classes of materials up to now. Aiming at fulfilling this gap, this paper describes the development of a high-pressure experimental setup for measuring the σb-CE in polymers. The design allows simultaneous measurements of temperature, pressure and strain during the barocaloric cycle. The system proved to be fully-functional through basic experiments using natural rubber. Samples exhibited large temperature variations associated to the σb-CE. Strain-temperature curves were also obtained, which could allow indirect measurements of the isothermal entropy change.

description: The fundamental idea that the constituents of interacting many body systems in complex quantum materials may self-organise into long range order under highly non-equilibrium conditions leads to the notion that entirely new and unexpected functionalities might be artificially created. However, demonstrating new emergent order in highly non-equilibrium transitions has proven surprisingly difficult. In spite of huge recent advances in experimental ultrafast time-resolved techniques, methods that average over successive transition outcomes have so far proved incapable of elucidating the emerging spatial structure. Here, using scanning tunneling microscopy, we report for the first time the charge order emerging after a single transition outcome in a prototypical two-dimensional dichalcogenide 1T-TaS$_2$ initiated by a single optical pulse. By mapping the vector field of charge displacements of the emergent state, we find surprisingly intricate, long-range, topologically non-trivial charge order in which chiral domain tiling is intertwined with unique unpaired dislocations which play a crucial role in enhancing the emergent states remarkable stability. The discovery of the principles that lead to metastability in charge-ordered systems open the way to designing novel emergent functionalities, particularly ultrafast all-electronic non-volatile cryo-memories.

description: Deliverable “D6.1-Report on the demonstration scenarios and description of testbed implementation plan” presents the demonstration scenarios and plans as well as provides an initial description of the MINOAS testbeds. In more detail, in this deliverable, we present the MINOAS usage scenarios with emphasis in their key design parameters. Building upon them, we explain their relation to the MINOAS testbeds which leads to the creation a usage scenarios-use cases mapping table. Next, initial testbed setups and blueprints of the envisioned final versions of the MINOAS testbeds are articulated. Special attention is given to each testbed plan and possible risks. To ensure smooth testbeds creation, early risk identification and initial mitigation plans for each testbed are documented. To sum up, this report serves as a key tool for developing MINOAS testbeds. The final testbed versions and experimental results will be presented in D6.2.

description: We describe a new analytical model for the accretion of particles from a rotating and charged spherical shell of dilute collisionless plasma onto a rotating and charged black hole. By assuming a continuous injection of particles at the spherical shell and by treating the black hole and a featureless accretion disc located in the equatorial plane as passive sinks of particles we build a stationary accretion model. This may then serve as a toy model for plasma feeding an accretion disc around a charged and rotating black hole. Therefore, our new model is a direct generalization of the analytical accretion model introduced by E. Tejeda, P. A. Taylor, and J. C. Miller (2013). We use our generalized model to analyze the influence of a net charge of the black hole, which will in general be very small, on the accretion of plasma. Within the assumptions of our model we demonstrate that already a vanishingly small charge of the black hole may in general still have a non-negligible effect on the motion of the plasma, as long as the electromagnetic field of the plasma is still negligible. Furthermore, we argue that the inner and outer edges of the forming accretion disc strongly depend on the charge of the accreted plasma. The resulting possible configurations of accretion discs are analyzed in detail.

The search is performed with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider using 139 fb$^{-1}$ of proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} =13\,\mathrm{TeV}$. It targets final states in which a Higgs boson decays into a photon pair, while the other Higgs or $Z$ boson decays into a $b\bar{b}$ pair, with missing transverse momentum associated with the two gravitinos. Search regions dependent on the amount of missing transverse momentum are defined by the requirements that the diphoton mass should be consistent with the mass of the Higgs boson, and the $b\bar{b}$ mass with the mass of the Higgs or $Z$ boson. The main backgrounds are estimated with data-driven methods using the sidebands of the diphoton mass distribution. No excesses beyond Standard Model expectations are observed and higgsinos with masses up to $320\,\mathrm{GeV}$ are excluded, assuming a branching fraction of 100% for $\tilde{\chi}_1^0\rightarrow h\tilde{G}$. This analysis excludes higgsinos with masses of $130\,\mathrm{GeV}$ for branching fractions to $h\tilde{G}$ as low as 36%, thus providing complementarity to previous ATLAS searches in final states with multiple leptons or multiple $b$-jets, targeting different decays of the electroweak bosons.

description: Given a principal bundle on an orientable closed surface with compact connected structure group, we endow the space of based gauge equivalence classes of smooth connections relative to smooth based gauge transformations with the structure of a Fréchet manifold. Using Wilson loop holonomies and a certain characteristic class determined by the topology of the bundle, we then impose suitable constraints on that Fréchet manifold that single out the based gauge equivalence classes of central Yang-Mills connections but do not directly involve the Yang-Mills equation. We also explain how our theory yields the based and unbased gauge equivalence classes of all Yang-Mills connections and deduce the stratified symplectic structure on the space of unbased gauge equivalence classes of central Yang-Mills connections. The crucial new technical tool is a slice analysis in the Fréchet setting.
Are nucleation bubbles in a liquid all independent?

description: The spontaneous formation of tiny bubbles in a liquid is at the root of the nucleation mechanism during the liquid-to-vapor transition of a metastable liquid. The smaller the bubbles the larger their probability to appear, and even for moderately metastable liquid, it is frequent to observe several tiny bubbles close to each other, suggesting that they are not all independent. It is shown that these spatially correlated bubbles should be seen as belonging to one single density depression of the liquid due to fluctuations (called LDR for Low Density Region) and should be counted as one event instead of several. This has a major impact on the characterization of the bubble density in a liquid, with consequences (i) for understanding liquid-to-vapor transitions which proceed through growing and merging of these correlated bubbles, and (ii) for free energy profile and barrier calculations with molecular simulation techniques which require to convert the calculated size distribution of the largest bubble into the size distribution of any bubble. Remarkably, the average number of LDRs in a given volume simply relates to the probability of not having bubbles in the liquid.

The main backgrounds are estimated with data-driven methods using the sidebands of the diphoton mass distribution. No excesses beyond Standard Model expectations are observed and higgsinos with masses up to $320\,\mathrm{GeV}$ are excluded, assuming a branching fraction of 100% for $\tilde{\chi}_1^0\rightarrow h\tilde{G}$. This analysis excludes higgsinos with masses of $130\,\mathrm{GeV}$ for branching fractions to $h\tilde{G}$ as low as 36%, thus providing complementarity to previous ATLAS searches in final states with multiple leptons or multiple $b$-jets, targeting different decays of the electroweak bosons.

description: Internal diffusion-limited aggregation (IDLA) is a stochastic growth model on a graph $G$ which describes the formation of a random set of vertices growing from the origin (some fixed vertex) of $G$. Particles start at the origin and perform simple random walks; each particle moves until it lands on a site which was not previously visited by other particles. This random set of occupied sites in $G$ is called the IDLA cluster. In this paper we consider IDLA on Sierpinski gasket graphs, and show that the IDLA cluster fills balls (in the graph metric) with probability 1.

description: A search is presented for the pair production of higgsinos $\tilde{\chi}$ in gauge-mediated supersymmetry models, where the lightest neutralinos $\tilde{\chi}_1^0$ decay into a light gravitino $\tilde{G}$ either via a Higgs $h$ or $Z$ boson. The search is performed with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider using 139 fb$^{-1}$ of proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} =13\,\mathrm{TeV}$. It targets final states in which a Higgs boson decays into a photon pair, while the other Higgs or $Z$ boson decays into a $b\bar{b}$ pair, with missing transverse momentum associated with the two gravitinos. Search regions dependent on the amount of missing transverse momentum are defined by the requirements that the diphoton mass should be consistent with the mass of the Higgs boson, and the $b\bar{b}$ mass with the mass of the Higgs or $Z$ boson.

description: The last year has seen astonishing progress in text-prompted image generation premised on the idea of a cross-modal representation space in which the text and image domains are represented jointly. In ASR, this idea has found application as joint speech-text encoders that can scale to the capacities of very large parameter models by being trained on both unpaired speech and text. While these methods show promise, they have required special treatment of the sequence-length mismatch inherent in speech and text, either by up-sampling heuristics or an explicit alignment model. In this work, we offer evidence that joint speech-text encoders naturally achieve consistent representations across modalities by disregarding sequence length, and argue that consistency losses could forgive length differences and simply assume the best alignment. We show that such a loss improves downstream WER in both a large-parameter monolingual and multilingual system.

description: New allotropes of two-dimensional (2D) GaP and InP binary compounds were predicted from the structural optimization and dynamical stability analysis in the framework of the density functional calculations. These stabilized GaP and InP monolayers possess unique high buckled orthorhombic lattices symmetry with their cohesive energies of ~0.14 and ~0.17 eV/pair lower than those of 2D low buckled honeycomb GaP and InP binary compounds, demonstrating that these newly predicted 2D GaP and InP binary compounds are energetically preferential. More interesting, their energy band gaps are even ~ 0.52 eV (for GaP) and ~1.49 eV (for InP) wider than their bulk counterparts. Such band gaps are also tunable under the strain along armchair/zigzag direction, and the direct/indirect band gap transitions occur under certain strain, providing their promising applications in band gap engineering for nanoscale electronic and optoelectronic devices. A feasible way to synthesize these novel 2D phosphide compounds is also provided in this study.

title: Lock-in mechanisms in global food systems: implications for sustainability and food security
Creators: name: Dornelles, Andre
Publisher: name: University of Reading

description: As global food networks increase in size, complexity and interconnectivity, a systemic understanding of the emergent drivers and coevolving trajectories that can either enable or hinder the transformation of food systems towards more sustainable trajectories is sorely needed. In this thesis, an interdisciplinary approach building from the literature of resilience, sustainability, and systemic risks was developed to investigate and quantify intertwined dynamics in food systems that can reinforce undesirable outcomes in social�ecological systems (i.e., lock-in mechanisms). In the four manuscripts collected, we aimed to, respectively: 1) investigate diverse interpretations of ‘undesirable resilience’ and explore potential commonalities from an interdisciplinary understanding, 2) operationalize a comprehensive understanding between the undesirable properties of resilience and their impacts on transformations towards sustainability throughout four case studies, 3) quantify multiple human and environmental dimensions of food systems transformations archetypes to identify potential leverage points for sustainability transformations, and 4) empirically investigate dynamic and shared patterns of interannual fluctuations of dietary energy supply and food supply and their implications for systemic food risks. Some key results include how the term ‘lock-in’ was found to be a bridging concept for an integrative understanding of social-ecological system dynamics (as found in manuscript 1) and can help to reveal mechanisms to enable systemic transformation towards sustainable development (elaborated in manuscript 2). The viii transformation of global food systems tended to be locked-in trajectories of expanding agricultural output, whilst accompanied by increasing malnutrition and environmental pressures (i.e., transformation archetypes) – which were found independently of improvements to productivity (quantified in manuscript 3). These social-environmental impacts are likely to co-occur across countries (i.e., interlocking mechanisms), with important implications for systemic risks. Dietary energy supply and food supply showed synchronised dynamics across nations, which were partially explained by geographic distance (assessed in manuscript 4). Collectively, lock-in mechanisms in global food systems reveal important conceptual, methodological, and empirical advancements to explore sustainable pathways for development and transformation.

description: We investigate the nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) in an open quantum XXZ chain with strong $XY$ plane boundary polarization gradient. Using the general theory developed in [1], we show that in the critical $XXZ$ $|Δ|<1$ easy plane case, the steady current in large systems under strong driving shows resonance-like behaviour, by an infinitesimal change of the spin chain anisotropy or other parameters. Alternatively, by fine tuning the system parameters and varying the boundary dissipation strength, we observe a change of the NESS current from diffusive (of order $1/N$, for small dissipation strength) to ballistic regime (of order 1, for large dissipation strength). This drastic change results from an accompanying structural change of the NESS, which becomes a pure spin-helix state characterized by a winding number which is proportional to the system size. We calculate the critical dissipation strength needed to observe this surprising effect.

description: Given an exact category $\mathcal{C}$, we denote by $\mathcal{C}_l$ the smallest additive subcategory containing injectives and indecomposable objects which appear as the first term of an almost split conflation. We prove that a deflation is right determined by some object if and only if its intrinsic kernel lies in $\mathcal{C}_l$. We give characterizations for $\mathcal{C}$ having Auslander-Reiten duality.

description: Using a turn-key Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser frequency comb, an off-the-shelf supercontinuum device, and Fabry-Perot mode filters, we report the generation of a 16 GHz frequency comb spanning a 90 nm band about a center wavelength of 566 nm. The light from this astro-comb is used to calibrate the HARPS-N astrophysical spectrograph for precision radial velocity measurements. The comb-calibrated spectrograph achieves a stability of $\sim$ 1 cm/s within half an hour of averaging time. We also use the astro-comb as a reference for measurements of solar spectra obtained with a compact telescope, and as a tool to study intrapixel sensitivity variations on the CCD of the spectrograph.

description: Recently,problem of stability of H-atom has been reported in extra-finite dimension,and found out that it is stable in extra-finite dimension of size,$R\leq\frac{a_0}{4}$,where,$a_0$ is the Bohr radius.Assuming that,the heavy flavoured mesons have also such stability controlled by the scale of coupling constant,we obtain corresponding QCD Bohr radius and it is found to be well within the present theoretical and experimental limit of higher dimension.We then study its consequences in their masses using effective string inspired potential model in higher dimension pursued by us.Within the uncertainty of masses of known Heavy Flavoured mesons the allowed range of extra dimension is $L\leq10^{-16}m$,which is well below the present theoretical and experimental limit,and far above the Planck length $\simeq1.5\times10^{-35}$ m.
