description: The fixed-target NA61/SHINE experiment (SPS CERN) looks for the critical point of strongly interacting matter and the properties of the onset of deconfinement. It is a two dimensional scan of measurements of particle spectra and fluctuations in proton-proton, proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus interactions as a function of collision energy and system size, corresponding to a two dimensional phase diagram (temperature T - baryonic chemical potential $μ_B$). New NA61/SHINE results are presented here, such as transverse momentum and multiplicity fluctuations in Ar+Sc collisions compared to NA61/SHINE p+p and Be+Be data, as well as to earlier NA49 A+A results. Recently, a preliminary signature for the new size dependent effect - rapid changes in system size dependence was observed in NA61-SHINE data, labeled as percolation threshold or onset of fireball. This would be closely related to the vicinity of the hadronic phase transition region.

Decoy State Quantum Key Distribution With More Than Three Types Of Photon Intensity Pulses

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Decoy state method closes source security loophole in quantum key distribution (QKD) using laser source. In this method, accurate estimates of the detection rates of vacuum and single photon events plus the error rate of single photon events are needed to give a good enough lower bound of the secret key rate. Nonetheless, the current estimation method for these detection and error rates, which uses three types of photon intensities, is accurate up to about 1% relative error. Here I report an experimentally feasible way that greatly improves these estimates and hence increases the one-way key rate of the BB84 QKD protocol with unbiased bases selection by at least 20% on average in realistic settings. The major tricks are the use of more than three types of photon intensities plus the fact that estimating bounds of the above detection and error rates is numerically stable although these bounds are related to the inversion of a high condition number matrix.

description: Recent general results on Hamiltonian reductions under polar group actions are applied to study some reductions of the free particle governed by the Laplace-Beltrami operator of a compact, connected, simple Lie group. The reduced systems associated with arbitrary finite dimensional irreducible representations of the group by using the symmetry induced by twisted conjugations are described in detail. These systems generically yield integrable Sutherland type many-body models with spin, which are called twisted spin Sutherland models if the underlying twisted conjugations are built on non-trivial Dynkin diagram automorphisms. The spectra of these models can be calculated, in principle, by solving certain Clebsch-Gordan problems, and the result is presented for the models associated with the symmetric tensorial powers of the defining representation of SU(N).

description: This study examines Canada’s key strategic trade policy options – whether pushing for further economic integration with the U.S., or diversifying to non-U.S. markets and reducing the degree to which Canada’s economy depends on the U.S. In particular, this study compares the economic benefits of implementing a North American customs union with the benefits of increasing Canada’s trade with either emerging countries (e.g., India, China, Brazil) or with advanced partners such as Europe and Japan. The main conclusion is that there may be considerable benefit to Canada of diversifying some of its trade away from the United States provided that countries with more youthful populations and rapid growth, such as India, are targeted. Diversification to older countries such as Europe and Japan would not be beneficial. The analysis is based on a series of recent policy-modeling studies by the authors examining the economic impacts of diverse trade policies options in global economy models, taking also into consideration an important feature of the 21st century, the demographic changes around the world that accompany the globalization process for goods and services, capital and labor. / Cette étude examine certaines options de politique commerciale pour le Canada, en particulier la question de savoir si le Canada devrait poursuivre encore plus son stade d’intégration économique avec les États-Unis, ou s’il devrait diversifier son commerce et réduire son degré de dépendance face aux États Unis. En particulier, l’étude compare les bénéfices d’une éventuelle Union Douanière avec les États-Unis par rapport à ceux d’un commerce croissant avec certains pays émergents (Inde, Chine, Brésil) ou avec l’Europe et le Japon, et conclue qu’il existe des bénéfices pour le Canada de diversifier une partie de son commerce en faveur de pays démographiquement plus jeunes et à croissance plus rapide – par exemple, l’Inde ou le Brésil, mais non en faveur de l’Europe ou du Japon. Cette étude se base sur les résultats d’études précédentes menées par les auteurs et qui examinent les impacts économiques de différentes options commerciales à l’aide de modèles d’équilibre général prenant en compte une caractéristique importante du 21ième siècle, les changements démographiques mondiaux qui accompagnent le processus de globalisation des biens et services, du capital, et du travail.

description: Within the framework of the extended Nambu -- Jona-Lasinio model, we calculate the matrix element of the $τ\to f_1(1285) π^{-} ν_τ$ decay, obtain the invariant mass distribution of the $f_1π$ -system and estimate the branching ratio Br$(τ\to f_1 π^{-}ν_τ)=4.0\times 10^{-4}$. The two types of contributions are considered: the contact interaction, and the axial-vector $I^G(J^{PC})=1^-(1^{++})$ resonance exchange. The latter includes the ground $a_1(1260)$ state, and its first radially excited state, $a_1(1640)$. The corrections caused by the $π-a_1$ transitions are taken into account. Our estimate is in a good agreement with the latest empirical result Br$(τ\to f_1 π^{-} ν_τ)=(3.9\pm 0.5)\times 10^{-4}$. The distribution function obtained for the decay $τ\to f_1(1285) π^{-} ν_τ$ shows a clear signal of $a_1(1640)$ resonance which should be compared with future experimental data including our estimate of the decay width $Γ(a_1(1640) \to f_1 π)=14.1\,\mbox{MeV}$.

description: We present a comprehensive study on how well gravitational-wave signals of binary black holes with nonzero eccentricities can be recovered with state of the art model-independent waveform reconstruction and parameter estimation techniques. For this we use BayesWave, a Bayesian algorithm used by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration for unmodeled reconstructions of signal waveforms and parameters. We used two different waveform models to produce simulated signals of binary black holes with eccentric orbits and embed them in samples of simulated noise of design-sensitivity Advanced LIGO detectors. We studied the network overlaps and point estimates of central moments of signal waveforms recovered by BayesWave as a function of $e$, the eccentricity of the binary at 8 Hz orbital frequency. BayesWave recovers signals of near-circular ($e\lesssim0.2$) and highly eccentric ($e\gtrsim0.7$) binaries with network overlaps similar to that of circular ($e=0$) ones, however it produces lower network overlaps for binaries with $e\in[0.2,0.7]$. Estimation errors on central frequencies and bandwidths (measured relative to bandwidths) are nearly independent from $e$, while estimation errors on central times and durations (measured relative to durations) increase and decrease with $e$ above $e\gtrsim0.5$, respectively. We also tested how BayesWave performs when reconstructions are carried out using generalized wavelets with linear frequency evolution (chirplets) instead of sine-Gaussian wavelets. We have found that network overlaps improve by $\sim 10-20$ percent when chirplets are used, and the improvement is the highest at low ($e<0.5$) eccentricities. There is however no significant change in the estimation errors of central moments when the chirplet base is used.

Quantum Confinement and Heavy Surface States of Dirac Fermions in Bismuth (111) Films: an Analytical Approach

description: Recent high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments have given a reason to believe that pure bismuth is topologically non-trivial semimetal. We derive an analytic theory of surface and size-quantized states of Dirac fermions in Bi(111) films taking into account the new data. The theory relies on a new phenomenological momentum-dependent boundary condition for the effective Dirac equation. The boundary condition is described by two real parameters that are expressed by a linear combination of the Dresselhaus and Rashba interface spin-orbit interaction parameters. In semi-infinite Bi(111), near $\overline{\rm M}$-point the surface states possess anisotropical parabolic dispersion with very heavy effective mass in $\overline{\rm Γ}-\overline{\rm M}$ direction order of ten free electron masses, and light effective mass in $\overline{\rm M}-\overline{\rm K}$ direction order of one hundredth of free electron mass. In Bi(111) films with equivalent surfaces, the surface states from top and bottom surfaces are not splitted. In such symmetric film with arbitrary thickness, bottom of the lowest quantum confinement subband in conduction band coincides with the bottom of bulk conduction band in $\overline{\rm M}$-point.
The Determinants of Venture Capital Funding in G7 Countries

description: This paper investigates the main determinants of venture capital funding across G7 countries over 2007- 2017. We extend the equilibrium model from Jeng and Wells (2000) and evaluate four types of factors affecting supply and demand of venture capital including macroeconomic condition, financial market, entrepreneurship environment and technological opportunities. We collect and Compile data from OECD, World Bank, IMF as well as national database, to estimate panel data model. We find that market capital, market capital return, interest rate, unemployment and ease of starting a business have the main impact on venture capital.

description: Quantum Darwinism describes objectivity of quantum systems via their correlations with their environment--information that hypothetical observers can recover by measuring the environments. However, observations are done with respect to a frame of reference. Here, we take the formalism of [Giacomini, Castro-Ruiz, & Brukner. Nat Commun 10, 494 (2019)], and consider the repercussions on objectivity when changing quantum reference frames. We find that objectivity depends on non-degenerative relative separations, conditional state localisation, and environment macro-fractions. There is different objective information in different reference frames due to the interchangeability of entanglement and coherence, and of statistical mixing and classical correlations. As such, objectivity is subjective across quantum reference frames.

description: Topological orders and associated topological protected excitations satisfying non-Abelian statistics have been widely explored in various platforms. The $\mathbb{Z}_3$ parafermions are regarded as the most natural generation of the Majorana fermions to realize these topological orders. Here we investigate the topological phase and emergent $\mathbb{Z}_2$ spin phases in an extended parafermion chain. This model exhibits rich variety of phases, including not only topological ferromagnetic phase, which supports non-Abelian anyon excitation, but also spin-fluid, dimer and chiral phases from the emergent $\mathbb{Z}_2$ spin model. We generalize the measurement tools in $\mathbb{Z}_2$ spin models to fully characterize these phases in the extended parafermion model and map out the corresponding phase diagram. Surprisingly, we find that all the phase boundaries finally merge to a single supercritical point. In regarding of the rather generality of emergent phenomena in parafermion models, this approach opens a wide range of intriguing applications in investigating the exotic phases in other parafermion models.

description: Non-Gaussian diffusion is commonly considered as a result of fluctuating diffusivity, which is correlated in time or in space or both. In this work, we investigate the non-Gaussian diffusion in static disordered media via a quenched trap model, where the diffusivity is spatially correlated. Several unique effects due to quenched disorder are reported. We analytically estimate the diffusion coefficient $D_{\text{dis}}$ and its fluctuation over samples of finite size. We show a mechanism of population splitting in the non-Gaussian diffusion. It results in a sharp peak in the distribution of displacement $P(x,t)$ around $x=0$, that has frequently been observed in experiments. We examine the fidelity of the coarse-grained diffusion map, which is reconstructed from particle trajectories. Finally, we propose a procedure to estimate the correlation length in static disordered environments, where the information stored in the sample-to-sample fluctuation has been utilized.

description: We report the discovery of burst oscillations at 414.7 Hz during a thermonuclear X-ray burst from the low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) 4U 0614+091 with the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) onboard SWIFT. In a search of the BAT archive, we found two burst triggers consistent with the position of 4U 0614+091. We searched both bursts for high frequency timing signatures, and found a significant detection at 414.7 Hz during a 5 s interval in the cooling tail of the brighter burst. This result establishes the spin frequency of the neutron star in 4U 0614+091 as 415 Hz. The oscillation had an average amplitude (rms) of 14%, These results are consistent with those known for burst oscillations seen in other LMXBs. The inferred ratio of the frequency difference between the twin kHz QPOs, and the spin frequency in this source is strongly inconsistent with either 0.5 or 1, and tends to support the recent suggestions by Yin et al., and Mendez & Belloni, that the kHz QPO frequency difference may not have a strong connection to the neutron star spin frequency.

description: Background: Because of the important role of hospital emergency departments (EDs) in providing urgent care, EDs face a constantly large demand that often results in long wait times. Objective: To review and analyze the existing literature in ED simulation modeling and its contribution in reducing patient wait time. Methods: A literature review was conducted on simulation modeling in EDs. Results: A total of 41 articles have met the inclusion criteria. The papers were categorized based on their motivations, modeling techniques, data collection processes, patient classification, recommendations, and implementation statuses. Real impact is seldom measured; only four papers (~10%) have reported the implementation of their recommended changes in the real world. Conclusion: The reported implementations contributed significantly to wait time reduction, but the proportion of simulation studies that are implemented is too low to conclude causality. Researchers should budget resources to implement their simulation recommendations in order to measure their impact on patient wait time.

description: Optical component designs for concentrating photovoltaic systems with three different multijunction solar cells (MJSCs) are optimized to yield maximum system efficiencies under standard test conditions, specifically uniform illumination. Optimization uses an integrated optoelectrical approach with ray tracing of the optical train to generate an irradiance profile for input to the cell’s distributed circuit model. These cells, a three-junction lattice-matched (3JLM) solar cell, a three-junction lattice-mismatched inverted metamorphic (3JIMM) solar cell, and a four junction lattice-matched (4JLM) solar cell, were individually designed for maximum efficiency at 1000×. The optical train introduces losses, modifies the spectrum, and produces a spatially nonuniform profile across the cell. We decouple spectral modification from spatial nonuniformity to separately determine their individual impacts on system efficiencies, finding the optimal set of optical design parameters for each case. Spectral modification yields modest loss penalties (from 1.0% to 1.6%, relative to the MJSC), but the impact of nonuniformity is more significant and cell dependent, with relative loss penalties of 1.1%, 3.8%, and 2.3%, for 3JLM, 3JIMM, and 4JLM, respectively. While spectral modification does not significantly impact design parameters, spatial nonuniformity does, with absolute losses of 1% and 3.4% if 3JIMM and 4JLM cells are used in a 3JLM optimized system, respectively.

description: We propose a semiparametric approach called the nonparanormal SKEPTIC for efficiently and robustly estimating high-dimensional undirected graphical models. To achieve modeling flexibility, we consider the nonparanormal graphical models proposed by Liu, Lafferty and Wasserman [J. Mach. Learn. Res. 10 (2009) 2295–2328]. To achieve estimation robustness, we exploit nonparametric rank-based correlation coefficient estimators, including Spearman’s rho and Kendall’s tau. We prove that the nonparanormal SKEPTIC achieves the optimal parametric rates of convergence for both graph recovery and parameter estimation. This result suggests that the nonparanormal graphical models can be used as a safe replacement of the popular Gaussian graphical models, even when the data are truly Gaussian. Besides theoretical analysis, we also conduct thorough numerical simulations to compare the graph recovery performance of different estimators under both ideal and noisy settings. The proposed methods are then applied on a large-scale genomic data set to illustrate their empirical usefulness. The R package huge implementing the proposed methods is available on the Comprehensive R Archive Network: http://cran.r-project.org/.

description: Light field photography has been studied thoroughly in recent years. One of its drawbacks is the need for multi-lens in the imaging. To compensate that, compressed light field photography has been proposed to tackle the trade-offs between the spatial and angular resolutions. It obtains by only one lens, a compressed version of the regular multi-lens system. The acquisition system consists of a dedicated hardware followed by a decompression algorithm, which usually suffers from high computational time. In this work, we propose a computationally efficient neural network that recovers a high-quality color light field from a single coded image. Unlike previous works, we compress the color channels as well, removing the need for a CFA in the imaging system. Our approach outperforms existing solutions in terms of recovery quality and computational complexity. We propose also a neural network for depth map extraction based on the decompressed light field, which is trained in an unsupervised manner without the ground truth depth map.
Hierarchical Modeling of Arsenic Concentrations at Entry Points in US Public Drinking Water Supplies

description: A Bayesian hierarchical model is built to describe arsenic concentrations in treated water from sources of public drinking water systems. The model allows us to decompose the total variability in arsenic concentration into three components: between-system, between-source (within system) and within-source variabilities. Predictions about what percentage of a state's systems and sources affected by the various proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) regulations are simulated based on the posterior predictive distribution. We investigate the potential impact of the between-source variability on this percentage by comparing predictions based on the full model and based on the reduced model which eliminates the between-source variability. Other issues addressed in the modeling are the possibility that the arsenic concentration in source water is changing over time and the possibility that changes in measurement methods and their detection limits cause a change in the precision and accuracy of the measurement methods. The analysis is conducted based on data from four states: California, Illinois, New Mexico and Utah.

description: During the past decade, mutations affecting liability to human disease have been discovered at a phenomenal rate, and that rate is increasing. For the most part, however, those diseases have a relatively simple genetic basis. For diseases with a complex genetic and environmental basis, new approaches are needed to pave the way for more rapid discovery of genes affecting liability. One such approach exploits large, population-based samples and large-scale genotyping to evaluate disease/gene associations. A substantial drawback to such samples is the fact that population heterogeneity can induce spurious associations between genes and disease. We describe a method called genomic control (GC), which obviates many of the concerns about population substructure by using the features of the genomes present in the sample to correct for stratification. Two general approaches to population-based association studies are now available. The GC approach exploits the fact that population substructure generates `overdispersion' of statistics used to assess association. By testing multiple polymorphisms throughout the genome, only some of which are pertinent to the disease of interest, the degree of overdispersion generated by population substructure can be estimated and taken into account. The other approach, called Structured Association (SA), assumes that the sampled population, while heterogeneous, is composed of subpopulations that are themselves homogeneous. By using multiple polymorphisms throughout the genome, the SA method probabilistically assigns sampled individuals to these latent subpopulations. We review in detail GC. In addition to outlining the published ideas on this method, we describe several extensions: quantitative trait studies; and case-control studies with haplotypes and multiallelic markers. For each study design our goal is to achieve control similar to that obtained for a family-based study, but with the convenience found in a population-based design.

description: We present an axiomatic framework for thermodynamics that incorporates information as a fundamental concept. The axioms describe both ordinary thermodynamic processes and those in which information is acquired, used and erased, as in the operation of Maxwell's demon. This system, like previous axiomatic systems for thermodynamics, supports the construction of conserved quantities and an entropy function governing state changes. Here, however, the entropy exhibits both information and thermodynamic aspects. Although our axioms are not based upon probabilistic concepts, a natural and highly useful concept of probability emerges from the entropy function itself. Our abstract system has many models, including both classical and quantum examples.

description: The total mass of neutrinos can be constrained in a number of ways using galaxy redshift surveys. Massive neutrinos modify the expansion rate of the Universe, which can be measured using baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) or the Alcock-Paczynski (AP) test. Massive neutrinos also change the structure growth rate and the amplitude of the matter power spectrum, which can be measured using redshift-space distortions (RSD). We use the Fisher matrix formalism to disentangle these information sources, to provide projected neutrino mass constraints from each of these probes alone and to determine how sensitive each is to the assumed cosmological model. We isolate the distinctive effect of neutrino free-streaming on the matter power spectrum and structure growth rate as a signal unique to massive neutrinos that can provide the most robust constraints, which are relatively insensitive to extensions to the cosmological model beyond $Λ$CDM. We also provide forecasted constraints using all of the information contained in the observed galaxy power spectrum combined, and show that these maximally optimistic constraints are primarily limited by the accuracy to which the optical depth of the cosmic microwave background, $τ$, is known.

description: For the results of randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) and related meta-analyses to be useful in practice, they must be relevant to a definable group of patients in a particular clinical setting. To the extent this is so, we say that the trial is generalizable or externally valid. Although concern about the generalizability of the results of RCTs is often discussed, there are few examples of methods for assessing the generalizability of clinical trial data. In this paper, we describe and illustrate an approach for making what we call generalizability judgments and illustrate the approach in the context of a case study of the risk of suicidality among pediatric antidepressant users.

description: Magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) is an efficient approach to probe surface magnetization in thin film samples. Here we present a wide-field MOKE technique that adopts a K$ö$hler illumination scheme to characterize the current-induced damping-like spin-orbit torque (DL-SOT) in micronsized and unpatterned magnetic heterostructures with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Through a current-induced hysteresis loop shift analysis, we quantify the DL-SOT efficiency of a Ta-based heterostructure with bar-shaped geometry, Hall-cross geometry, and unpatterned geometry to be $|ξ_{DL}|\approx$ 0.08. The proposed wide-field MOKE approach therefore provides an instant and direct characterization of DL-SOT, without the need of any further interpretation on electrical signals.

description: We rederive and extend the amplitude for charged spherical shells tunneling through the outer horizon of charged black holes. In particular, we explicitly confirm that an effective action approach with natural initial conditions for a spherical shell, including backreaction, reduces to the tunneling integral. Consequently, we establish a universal expression for the probability of emission in terms of the change in the horizon entropy. Notably, the result for the charged black hole also captures the superradiant regime of charged particle decay at low energies. We then explore an appropriately regulated extremal and near-horizon limit, relating the tunneling amplitude to a family of gravitational instantons in the near-horizon Anti-de Sitter geometry, reducing to the known result for $AdS_2$ domain walls to leading order in the probe limit. We comment on the relation to the Weak Gravity Conjecture and the conjectured instability of (non-supersymmetric) Anti-de Sitter vacua.

Generalized fiducial inference for normal linear mixed models

description: While linear mixed modeling methods are foundational concepts introduced in any statistical education, adequate general methods for interval estimation involving models with more than a few variance components are lacking, especially in the unbalanced setting. Generalized fiducial inference provides a possible framework that accommodates this absence of methodology. Under the fabric of generalized fiducial inference along with sequential Monte Carlo methods, we present an approach for interval estimation for both balanced and unbalanced Gaussian linear mixed models. We compare the proposed method to classical and Bayesian results in the literature in a simulation study of two-fold nested models and two-factor crossed designs with an interaction term. The proposed method is found to be competitive or better when evaluated based on frequentist criteria of empirical coverage and average length of confidence intervals for small sample sizes. A MATLAB implementation of the proposed algorithm is available from the authors.

description: Consider a network where the nodes split into K different communities. The community labels for the nodes are unknown and it is of major interest to estimate them (i.e., community detection). Degree Corrected Block Model (DCBM) is a popular network model. How to detect communities with the DCBM is an interesting problem, where the main challenge lies in the degree heterogeneity.

description: This paper extends False Discovery Rates to random fields, where there are uncountably many hypothesis tests. This provides a method for finding local regions in the field where there is a significant signal while controlling either the proportion of area or the number of clusters in which false rejections occur. We develop confidence envelopes for the proportion of false discoveries as a function of the rejection threshold. This yields algorithms for constructing a confidence superset for the locations of the true nulls. From this we derive rejection thresholds that control the mean and quantiles of the proportion of false discoveries. We apply this method to scan statistics and functional neuroimaging.

description: We investigate the ultraviolet (UV) behavior of two-scalar elastic scattering with graviton exchanges in higher curvature gravity theory. In the Einstein gravity, matter scattering is shown not to satisfy tree unitarity at high energy. Among a few possible directions to cure unitarity (i.e. UV completion of Einstein gravity), string theory, modified gravity, inclusion of high-mass/high-spin states, we take $R_{μν}^2$ gravity coupled to matter. We show that the matter scattering with graviton interactions satisfies the unitarity bound at high energy, in contrast with the Einstein gravity. The difference in unitarity property of the two gravity theories is due to that in the UV behavior of the propagator and is probably connected to that in another UV property, namely renormalizability property of the two.
