description: In this paper, we construct \textit{Dirac-boson stars} (DBSs) model composed of a scalar field and two Dirac fields. The scalar field and both Dirac fields are in the ground state. We consider the solution families of the DBSs for the synchronized frequency $\tildeω$ and the nonsynchronized frequency $\tildeω_D$ cases, respectively. We find several different solutions when the Dirac mass $\tildeμ_D$ and scalar field frequency $\tildeω_S$ are taken in some particular ranges. In contrast, no similar case has been found in previous studies of multistate boson stars. Moreover, we discuss the characteristics of each type of solution family of the DBSs and present the relationship between the ADM mass $M$ of the DBSs and the synchronized frequency $\tildeω$ or the nonsynchronized frequency $\tildeω_D$. Finally, we calculate the binding energy $E_B$ of the DBSs and investigate the relationship of $E_B$ with the synchronized frequency $\tildeω$ or the nonsynchronized frequency $\tildeω_D$.

description: We investigate fractional-charge and fractional-spin errors in range-separated density-functional theory. Specifically, we consider the range-separated hybrid (RSH) method which combines long-range Hartree-Fock (HF) exchange with a short-range semilocal exchange-correlation density functional, and the RSH+MP2 method which adds long-range second-order M{ø}ller-Plesset (MP2) correlation. Results on atoms and molecules show that the fractional-charge errors obtained in RSH are much smaller than in the standard Kohn-Sham (KS) scheme applied with semilocal or hybrid approximations, and also generally smaller than in the standard HF method. The RSH+MP2 method tends to have smaller fractional-charge errors than standard MP2 for the most diffuse systems, but larger fractional-charge errors for the more compact systems. Even though the individual contributions to the fractional-spin errors in the H atom coming from the short-range exchange and correlation density-functional approximations are smaller than the corresponding contributions for the full-range exchange and correlation density-functional approximations, RSH gives fractional-spin errors that are larger than in the standard KS scheme and only slightly smaller than in standard HF. Adding long-range MP2 correlation only leads to infinite fractional-spin errors. This work clarifies the successes and limitations of range-separated density-functional theory approaches for eliminating self-interaction and static-correlation errors.

description: The present review gives an overview of the highlights of more than 10 years of research on synthesis and applications of ordered oxide structures (nanotube layers, hexagonal pore arrangements) that are formed by self-organizing anodization of metals. In particular we address the questions after the critical factors that lead to the spectacular self-ordering during the growth of anodic oxides that finally yield morphologies such as highly ordered TiO2 nanotube arrays and similar structures. Why are tubes and pores formed - what are the key parameters controlling these processes?

description: We present a study of the merger of six different known galactic systems of binary neutron stars (BNS) of unequal mass with a mass ratio between $0.75$ and $0.99$. Specifically, these systems are J1756-2251, J0737-3039A, J1906+0746, B1534+12, J0453+1559 and B1913+16. We follow the dynamics of the merger from the late stage of the inspiral process up to $\sim$ 20 ms after the system has merged, either to form a hyper-massive neutron star (NS) or a rotating black hole (BH), using a semi-realistic equation of state (EOS), namely the seven-segment piece-wise polytropic SLy with a thermal component. For the most extreme of these systems ($q=0.75$, J0453+1559), we also investigate the effects of different EOSs: APR4, H4, and MS1. Our numerical simulations are performed using only publicly available open source code such as, the Einstein Toolkit code deployed for the dynamical evolution and the LORENE code for the generation of the initial models. We show results on the gravitational wave signals, spectrogram and frequencies of the BNS after the merger and the BH properties in the two cases in which the system collapse within the simulated time.

description: The emergence of topological order in graphene is in great demand for the realization of quantum spin Hall states. Recently, it is theoretically proposed that the spin textures of surface states in topological insulator can be directly transferred to graphene by means of proximity effect. Here we report the observations of the topological proximity effect in the graphene-topological insulator Bi2Se3 heterojunctions via magnetotransport measurements. The coupling between the p_z orbitals of graphene and the p orbitals of surface states on the Bi2Se3 bottom surface can be enhanced by applying perpendicular negative magnetic field, resulting in a giant negative magnetoresistance at the Dirac point up to about -91%. An obvious resistivity dip in the transfer curve at the Dirac point is also observed in the hybrid devices, which is consistent with the theoretical predictions of the distorted Dirac bands with unique spin textures inherited from Bi2Se3 surface states.

description: In response to a recently reported observation of evidence for two classes of Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) distinguished by their brightness in the rest-frame near ultraviolet (NUV), we search for the phenomenon in publicly available light-curve data. We use the SNANA supernova analysis package to simulate SN Ia-light curves in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Supernova Search (SDSS) and the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) with a model of two distinct ultraviolet classes of SNe Ia and a conventional model with a single broad distribution of SN-Ia ultraviolet brightnesses. We compare simulated distributions of rest-frame colors with these two models to those observed in 158 SNe Ia in the SDSS and SNLS data. The SNLS sample of 99 SNe Ia is in clearly better agreement with a model with one class of SN Ia light curves and shows no evidence for distinct NUV sub-classes. The SDSS sample of 59 SNe Ia with poorer color resolution does not distinguish between the two models.

description: Nonlinear guided wave modes in an asymmetric slab waveguide formed by an isotropic dielectric layer placed on a linear or nonlinear substrate and covered by a hyperbolic material are investigated. Optical axis is normal to the slab plane. The dispersion relations for TM waves are found. It is shown that there are additional cut-off frequencies for each TM mode. The effects of the nonlinearity on the dispersion relations are investigated and discussed. There are the modes, which are corresponded with situation where the peak of electric field is localized in the nonlinear substrate. These modes are absent in the linear waveguide. To excite these modes the power must exceed certain threshold value.

description: Determining defect types and concentrations remains a big challenge of semiconductor materials science. By using ab-initio thermal conductivity calculations we reveal that Ni/vacancy antisites, and not the previously claimed Sn/Zr antisites, are the dominant defects affecting thermal transport in half-Heusler compound ZrNiSn. Our calculations correctly predict the thermal conductivity dependence with temperature and concentration, in quantitative agreement with published experimental results. Furthermore, we find a characteristic proportionality between phonon-antisite scattering rates and the sixth power of phonon frequency, for which we provide an analytic derivation. These results suggest that thermal conductivity measurements in combination with ab-initio calculations can be used to quantitatively assess defect types and concentrations in semiconductors.

description: We prove that if $u$ is the entropy solution to a scalar conservation law in one space dimension, then the entropy dissipation is a measure concentrated on countably many Lipschitz curves. This result is a consequence of a detailed analysis of the structure of the characteristics. \\ In particular the characteristic curves are segments outside a countably 1-rectifiable set and the left and right traces of the solution exist in a $C^0$-sense up to the degeneracy due to the segments where $f"=0$. We prove also that the initial data is taken in a suitably strong sense and we give some counterexamples which show that these results are sharp.

description: We study a simplified Ericksen-Leslie system modeling the flow of nematic liquid crystals with partially free boundary conditions. It is a coupled system between the Navier-Stokes equation for the fluid velocity with a transported heat flow of harmonic maps, and both of these parabolic equations are critical for analysis in two dimensions. The boundary conditions are physically natural and they correspond to the Navier slip boundary condition with zero friction for the velocity field and a Plateau-Neumann type boundary condition for the map. In this paper we construct smooth solutions of this coupled system that blow up in finite time at any finitely many given points on the boundary or in the interior of the domain.

description: Personal Health Records (PHR) emerge as an alternative to integrate patient's health information to give a global view of patients' status. However, integration is not a trivial feature when dealing with a variety electronic health systems from healthcare centers. Access to PHR sensitive information must comply with privacy policies defined by the patient. Architecture PHR design should be in accordance to these, and take advantage of nowadays technology. Cloud computing is a current technology that provides scalability, ubiquity, and elasticity features. This paper presents a scoping review related to PHR systems that achieve three characteristics: integrated, reliable and cloud-based. We found 101 articles that addressed those characteristics. We identified four main research topics: proposal/developed systems, PHR recommendations for development, system integration and standards, and security and privacy. Integration is tackled with HL7 CDA standard. Information reliability is based in ABE security-privacy mechanism. Cloud-based technology access is achieved via SOA.

The translational $μ$-$τ$ reflection symmetry of Majorana neutrinos
Creators: name: Xing, Zhi-zhong
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The present neutrino oscillation data allow $m^{}_1 = 0$ (or $m^{}_3 = 0$) for the neutrino mass spectrum and support $θ^{}_{23} \simeq π/4$ and $δ\simeq -π/2$ as two good approximations for the PMNS lepton flavor mixing matrix $U$. We show that these intriguing possibilities can be a very natural consequence of the {\it translational} $μ$-$τ$ reflection symmetry -- the effective Majorana neutrino mass term keeps invariant under the transformations $ν^{}_{e \rm L} \to (ν^{}_{e \rm L})^c + U^*_{e i} z^{c}_ν$, $ν^{}_{μ\rm L} \to (ν^{}_{τ\rm L})^c + U^*_{τi} z^{c}_ν$ and $ν^{}_{τ\rm L} \to (ν^{}_{μ\rm L})^c + U^*_{μi} z^{c}_ν$ (for $i = 1$ or $3$), where $z^{c}_ν$ is the charge conjugation of a constant spinor field $z^{}_ν$. Extending such a working flavor symmetry to the canonical seesaw mechanism at a superhigh-energy scale, we calculate its soft breaking effects at the electroweak scale by using the one-loop renormalization-group equations.

description: Cross sections for the charm-production reactions $\bar p p \to \bar Λ_c^- Σ_c^+$, $\bar Σ_cΣ_c$, $\bar Ξ_cΞ_c$, and $\bar Ξ_c'Ξ_c'$ are presented, for energies near their respective thresholds. The results are based on a calculation performed in the meson-exchange framework in close analogy to earlier studies of the Jülich group on the strangeness-production reactions $\bar p p \to \bar ΛΣ$, $\bar ΣΣ$, $\bar ΞΞ$ by connecting the two sectors via SU(4) flavor symmetry. The cross sections are found to be in the order of $0.1 - 1$ $μb$ at energies of $100$ MeV above the respective thresholds, for all considered channels. Complementary to meson-exchange, where the charmed baryons are produced by the exchange of $D$ and $D^*$ mesons, a charm-production potential derived in a quark model is employed for assessing uncertainties. The cross sections predicted within that picture turned out to be significantly smaller.

description: The sea level observations from satellite altimetry are characterised by a sparse spatial and temporal coverage. For this reason, along-track data are routinely interpolated into daily grids. The latter are strongly smoothed in time and space and are generated using an optimal interpolation routine requiring several pre-processing steps and covariance characterisation. In this study, we assess the potential of Random Forest Regression to estimate daily sea level anomalies. Along-track sea level data from 2004 are used to build a training dataset whose predictors are the neighbouring observations. The validation is based on the comparison against daily averages from tide gauges. The generated dataset is on average 10% more correlated to the tide gauge records than the commonly used product from Copernicus. While the latter is more optimised for the detection of spatial mesoscales, we show how the methodology of this study has the potential to improve the characterisation of sea level variability.

description: With advancing technologies, robotic manipulators and visual environment sensors are becoming cheaper and more widespread. However, robot control can be still a limiting factor for better adaptation of these technologies. Robotic manipulators are performing very well in structured workspaces, but do not adapt well to unexpected changes, like people entering the workspace. We present a method combining 3D Camera based workspace mapping, and a predictive and reflexive robot manipulator trajectory estimation to allow more efficient and safer operation in dynamic workspaces. In experiments on a real UR5 robot our method has proven to provide shorter and smoother trajectories compared to a reactive trajectory planner in the same conditions. Furthermore, the robot has successfully avoided any contact by initialising the reflexive movement even when an obstacle got unexpectedly close to the robot. The main goal of our work is to make the operation more flexible in unstructured dynamic workspaces and not just avoid obstacles, but also adapt when performing collaborative tasks with humans in the near future.

We clarify the meaning of the relation in superconformal theories. In particular we show that it automatically follows from known relations between the current correlation functions and anomalies. It therefore also automatically matches between different dual realizations of the same superconformal theory. We use holographic examples as well as calculations in free theories to show that the proposed relation fails in theories with mass terms.

description: Non-blazar Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) have emerged as a new gamma-ray emitting source class on the extragalactic sky and started to deepen our understanding of the physical processes and the nature of AGN in general. The detection of Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies in the Fermi-LAT energy regime, for example, offers important information for our understanding of jet formation and radio-loudness. Radio galaxies, on the other hand, have become particularly interesting at high (HE) and very high (VHE) gamma-ray energies. With their jets not directly pointing towards us (i.e. misaligned), they offer a unique tool to probe into the nature of the fundamental (and often hidden) physical processes in AGN. This review highlights and discusses some of the observational and theoretical progress achieved in the gamma-ray regime during recent years, including the evidence for unexpected spectral hardening in Centaurus A and extreme short-term variability as seen in IC 310 and M87.

description: Foams are unstable jammed materials. They evolve over timescales comparable to their "time of use", which makes the study of their destabilisation mechanisms crucial for applications. In practice, many foams are made from viscoelastic fluids, which are observed to prolong their lifetimes. Despite their importance we lack understanding of the coarsening mechanism in such systems. We probe the effect of continuous phase viscoelasticity on foam coarsening with foamed emulsions. We show that bubble size evolution is strongly slowed down and foam structure hugely impacted. The main mechanisms responsible are the absence of continuous phase redistribution and a non-trivial link between foam structure and mechanical properties. These combine to give spatially heterogeneous coarsening. Beyond their importance in the design of foamy materials, the results give a macroscopic vision of phase separation in a viscoelastic medium.
Circuit Covers of Cubic Signed Graphs

Subjects: subject: Combinatorics (math.CO)

description: A signed graph is a graph $G$ associated with a mapping $σ: E(G)\to \{-1,+1\}$, denoted by $(G,σ)$. A $cycle$ of $(G,σ)$ is a connected 2-regular subgraph. A cycle $C$ is $positive$ if it has an even number of negative edges, and negative otherwise. A $circuit$ of of a signed graph $(G,σ)$ is a positive cycle or a barbell consisting of two edge-disjoint negative cycles joined by a path. The definition of a circuit of signed graph comes from the signed-graphic matroid. A circuit cover of $(G,σ)$ is a family of circuits covering all edges of $(G,σ)$. A circuit cover with the smallest total length is called a shortest circuit cover of $(G,σ)$ and its length is denoted by $\text{scc}(G,σ)$. Bouchet proved that a signed graph with a circuit cover if and only if it is flow-admissible (i.e., has a nowhere-zero integer flow). Máčajová et. al. show that a 2-edge-connected signed graph $(G,σ)$ has $\text{scc}(G,σ)\le 9 |E(G)|$ if it is flow-admissible. This bound was improved recently by Cheng et. al. to $\text{scc}(G,σ) \le 11|E(G)|/3$ for 2-edge-connected signed graphs with even negativeness, and particularly, $\text{scc}(G,σ)\le 3|E(G)|+ε(G,σ)/3$ for 2-edge-connected cubic signed graphs with even negativeness (where $ε(G,σ)$ is the negativeness of $(G,σ)$). In this paper, we show that every 2-edge-connected cubic signed graph has $\text{scc}(G,σ)\le 26|E(G)|/9$ if it is flow-admissible, and $\text{scc}(G,σ)\le 23|E(G)|/9$ if it has even negativeness.

description: Fifth Generation (5G) introduces technologies that expedite the adoption of mobile networks, such as densely connected devices, ultra-fast data rate, low latency and more. With those visions in 5G and 6G in the next step, the need for a higher transmission rate and lower latency is more demanding, possibly breaking Moore’s law. With Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques becoming mature in the past decade, optimizing resource allocation in the network has become a highly demanding problem for Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) to provide better Quality of Service (QoS) with less cost. This thesis proposes a Reinforcement Learning (RL) solution on bandwidth allocation for network slicing integration in disaggregated Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) architecture. O-RAN redefines traditional Radio Access Network (RAN) elements into smaller components with detailed functional specifications. The concept of open modularization leads to greater potential for managing resources of different network slices. In 5G mobile networks, there are three major types of network slices, Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC), and Massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC). Each network slice has different features in the 5G network; therefore, the resources can be relocated depending on different needs. The virtualization of O-RAN divides the RAN into smaller function groups. This helps the network slices to divide the shared resources further down. Compared to traditional sequential signal processing, allocating dedicated resources for each network slice can improve the performance individually. In addition, shared resources can be customized statically based on the feature requirement of each slice. To further enhance the bandwidth utilization on the disaggregated O-RAN, a RL algorithm is proposed in this thesis on midhaul bandwidth allocation shared between Centralized Unit (CU) and Distributed Unit (DU). A Python-based simulator has been implemented considering several types of mobile User Equipment (UE)s for this thesis. The simulator is later integrated with the proposed Q-learning model. The RL model finds the optimization on bandwidth allocation in midhaul between Edge Open Cloud (O-Cloud)s (DUs) and Regional O-Cloud (CU). The results show up to 50% improvement in the throughput of the targeted slice, fairness to other slices, and overall bandwidth utilization on the O-Clouds. In addition, the UE QoS has a significant improvement in terms of transmission time.

description: The H-dibaryon is the exotic multiquark state with baryon number 2 and strangeness $-2$. The existence of the deeply bound H-dibaryon is excluded by the observation of the double hypernuclei. However the recent Lattice QCD simulations have found the bound state below the $ΛΛ$ threshold with large quark masses by HALQCD and NPLQCD collaborations. In this talk, the quark mass dependence of the H-dibaryon mass is discussed using the pionless effective field theory (EFT) where a bare H-dibaryon field is coupled with two-baryon states. We determine the parameters in this theory by fitting the recent Lattice QCD results in the SU(3) limit. As a result, we obtain the attractive scattering length at the physical point where the H-dibaryon is unbound.

Addressing the Hubble and $S_8$ Tensions with a Kinetically Mixed Dark Sector

description: We present a kinetically mixed dark sector (KMIX) model to address the Hubble and $S_8$ tensions. Inspired from string theory, our model includes two fields: an axion, which plays a role similar to the scalar field in early dark energy models, and a dilaton. This theory differs from other axio-dilaton models aimed at the Hubble tension in that there is necessarily kinetic mixing between the two fields which allows for efficient energy transfer from the axion into the dilaton which has $w\approx1$. As a direct consequence of these dynamics, we find the model does not need to resort to a fine-tuned potential to solve the Hubble tension and naturally accommodates a standard axion potential. Furthermore, the axion will necessarily makeup a small (fuzzy) fraction of $Ω_{\rm cdm}$ once it begins to oscillate at the bottom of its potential and will suppress the growth of perturbations on scales sensitive to $S_8$. Interestingly, the scale of the potential for the dilaton has to be small, $\lesssim \mathcal{O}(10~{\rm meV})^4$, suggesting the possibility for a connection to dark energy. Implementing the dynamics for the background and perturbations in a modified Boltzmann code we calculate the CMB and matter power spectra for our theory. Exploring the parameter space of our model, we find regions which can accommodate a $\sim 10\%$ increase in $H_0$ from the Planck inferred value and $S_8$ values that are consistent with large-scale structure constraints.

Object-ABN: Learning to Generate Sharp Attention Maps for Action Recognition

description: In this paper we propose an extension of the Attention Branch Network (ABN) by using instance segmentation for generating sharper attention maps for action recognition. Methods for visual explanation such as Grad-CAM usually generate blurry maps which are not intuitive for humans to understand, particularly in recognizing actions of people in videos. Our proposed method, Object-ABN, tackles this issue by introducing a new mask loss that makes the generated attention maps close to the instance segmentation result. Further the PC loss and multiple attention maps are introduced to enhance the sharpness of the maps and improve the performance of classification. Experimental results with UCF101 and SSv2 shows that the generated maps by the proposed method are much clearer qualitatively and quantitatively than those of the original ABN.

description: In non-interacting isolated quantum systems out of equilibrium, local subsystems typically relax to non-thermal stationary states. In the standard framework, information on the rest of the system is discarded, and such states are described by a Generalized Gibbs Ensemble (GGE), maximizing the entropy while respecting the constraints imposed by the local conservation laws. Here we show that the latter also completely characterize a recently introduced projected ensemble (PE), constructed by performing projective measurements on the rest of the system and recording the outcomes. By focusing on the time evolution of fermionic Gaussian states in a tight-binding chain, we put forward a random ensemble constructed out of the local conservation laws, which we call deep GGE (dGGE). For infinite-temperature initial states, we show that the dGGE coincides with a universal Haar random ensemble on the manifold of Gaussian states. For both infinite and finite temperatures, we use a Monte Carlo approach to test numerically the predictions of the dGGE against the PE. We study in particular the $k$-moments of the state covariance matrix and the entanglement entropy, finding excellent agreement. Our work provides a first step towards a systematic characterization of projected ensembles beyond the case of chaotic systems and infinite temperatures.

Analysis of Charmless Two-body B decays in Factorization Assisted Topological Amplitude Approach

description: We analyze charmless two-body non-leptonic B decays $B \to PP, PV$ under the framework of factorization assisted topological amplitude approach, where $P(V)$ denotes a light pseudoscalar (vector) meson. Compared with the conventional flavor diagram approach, we consider flavor $SU(3)$ breaking effect assisted by factorization hypothesis for topological diagram amplitudes of different decay modes, factorizing out the corresponding decay constants and form factors. The non-perturbative parameters of topology diagram magnitudes $χ$ and strong phase $ϕ$ are universal that can be extracted by $χ^2$ fit from current abundant experimental data of charmless B decays. The number of free parameters and the $χ^2$ per degree of freedom are both reduced comparing with previous analysis. With these best fitted parameters, we predict branching fractions and $CP$ asymmetry parameters of nearly 100 $B_{u,d}$ and $B_s$ decay modes. The long-standing $ππ$ and $πK$-$CP$ puzzles are resolved simultaneoulsy.

A Computational Analysis of the Function of Three Inhibitory Cell Types in Contextual Visual Processing

description: Most cortical inhibitory cell types exclusively express one of three genes, parvalbumin, somatostatin and 5HT3a. The visual responses of cortical neurons are affected not only by local cues, but also by visual context. As the inhibitory neuron types have distinctive synaptic sources and targets over different spatial extents and from different areas, we conjecture that they possess distinct roles in contextual processing. We use modeling to relate structural information to function in primary visual cortex (V1) of the mouse, and investigate their role in contextual visual processing. Our findings are threefold. First, the inhibition mediated by parvalbumin positive (PV) cells mediates local processing and could underlie their role in boundary detection. Second, the inhibition mediated by somatostatin-positive (SST) cells facilitates longer range spatial competition among receptive fields. Third, non-specific top-down modulation to interneurons expressing vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), a subclass of 5HT3a neurons, can selectively enhance V1 responses.

$N\bar{N}$ production in $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation near the threshold revisited

description: Production of $p\bar{p}$ and $n\bar{n}$ pairs in $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation near the threshold of the process is discussed with account for the new experimental data appeared recently. Since a significant part of these new data was obtained at energies noticeably exceeding the threshold, we also take into account the form factor describing the amplitude of $N\bar{N}$ pair production at small distances. The effective optical potential, which describes a sharp dependence of the $N\bar{N}$ production cross sections near the threshold, consists of the central potential for $S$ and $D$ waves and the tensor potential. These potentials differ for the states with isospin $I=0$ and $I=1$ of $N\bar{N}$ pair. The optical potential describes well $N\bar{N}$ scattering phases, the cross sections of $p\bar{p}$ and $n\bar{n}$ production in $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation near the threshold, the electromagnetic form factors $G_{E}$ and $G_{M}$ for protons and neutrons, as well as the cross sections of the processes $e^{+}e^{-}\to6π$ and $e^{+}e^{-}\to K^{+}K^{-}π^{+}π^{-}$.

description: We consider the simulation of sample paths of a fractional Brownian motion with small values of the Hurst index and estimate the behavior of the expected maximum. We prove that, for each fixed $N$, the error of approximation $\mathbf {E}\max_{t\in[0,1]}B^H(t)-\mathbf {E}\max_{i=\overline{1,N}}B^H(i/N)$ grows rapidly to $\infty$ as the Hurst index tends to 0.
