Moreau-Yoshida Variational Transport: A General Framework For Solving Regularized Distributional Optimization Problems

description: We consider a general optimization problem of minimizing a composite objective functional defined over a class of probability distributions. The objective is composed of two functionals: one is assumed to possess the variational representation and the other is expressed in terms of the expectation operator of a possibly nonsmooth convex regularizer function. Such a regularized distributional optimization problem widely appears in machine learning and statistics, such as proximal Monte-Carlo sampling, Bayesian inference and generative modeling, for regularized estimation and generation.
 We propose a novel method, dubbed as Moreau-Yoshida Variational Transport (MYVT), for solving the regularized distributional optimization problem. First, as the name suggests, our method employs the Moreau-Yoshida envelope for a smooth approximation of the nonsmooth function in the objective. Second, we reformulate the approximate problem as a concave-convex saddle point problem by leveraging the variational representation, and then develope an efficient primal-dual algorithm to approximate the saddle point. Furthermore, we provide theoretical analyses and report experimental results to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

description: We study a Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy system with mass sources, which can be considered as a basic, though simplified, diffuse interface model for the evolution of tumor growth. This system is equipped with an impermeability condition for the (volume) averaged velocity $\mathbf{u}$ as well as homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions for the phase function $φ$ and the chemical potential $μ$. The source term in the convective Cahn-Hilliard equation contains a control $R$ that can be thought, for instance, as a drug or a nutrient in applications. Our goal is to study a distributed optimal control problem in the two dimensional setting with a cost functional of tracking-type. In the physically relevant case with unmatched viscosities for the binary fluid mixtures and a singular potential, we first prove the existence and uniqueness of a global strong solution with $φ$ being strictly separated from the pure phases $\pm 1$. This well-posedness result enables us to characterize the control-to-state mapping $\mathcal{S}:R \mapsto φ$. Then we obtain the existence of an optimal control, the Fréchet differentiability of $\mathcal{S}$ and first-order necessary optimality conditions expressed through a suitable variational inequality for the adjoint variables. Finally, we prove the differentiability of the control-to-costate operator and establish a second-order sufficient condition for the strict local optimality.

description: We summarise popular methods used for skill rating in competitive sports, along with their inferential paradigms and introduce new approaches based on sequential Monte Carlo and discrete hidden Markov models. We advocate for a state-space model perspective, wherein players' skills are represented as time-varying, and match results serve as observed quantities. We explore the steps to construct the model and the three stages of inference: filtering, smoothing and parameter estimation. We examine the challenges of scaling up to numerous players and matches, highlighting the main approximations and reductions which facilitate statistical and computational efficiency. We additionally compare approaches in a realistic experimental pipeline that can be easily reproduced and extended with our open-source Python package, https://github.com/SamDuffield/abile.

description: Metal halide perovskites make up a promising class of materials for semiconductor spintronics. Here we report a systematic investigation of coherent spin precession, spin dephasing and spin relaxation of electrons and holes in two hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites MA0.3FA0.7PbI3 and MA0.3FA0.7Pb0.5Sn0.5I3 using time-resolved Faraday rotation spectroscopy. With applied in-plane magnetic fields, we observe robust Larmor spin precession of electrons and holes that persists for hundreds of picoseconds. The spin dephasing and relaxation processes are likely to be sensitive to the defect levels. Temperature-dependent measurements give further insights into the spin relaxation channels. The extracted electron Landé g-factors (3.75 and 4.36) are the biggest among the reported values in inorganic or hybrid perovskites. Both the electron and hole g-factors shift dramatically with temperature, which we propose to originate from thermal lattice vibration effects on the band structure. These results lay the foundation for further design and use of lead- and tin-based perovskites for spintronic applications.

description: Nonlinear wave propagation in large extra spatial dimensions (on and above $d=2$) is investigated in the context of nonlinear electrodynamics theories that depend exclusively on the invariant $\mathcal{F}\left(=-(1/4)F_{μν}F^{μν}\right)$. In this vein, we consider propagating waves under the influence of external uniform electric and magnetic fields. Features related to the blackbody radiation in the presence of a background constant electric field such as the generalization of the spectral energy density distribution and the Stefan-Boltzmann law are obtained. Interestingly enough, anisotropic contributions to the frequency spectrum appear in connection to the nonlinearity of the electromagnetic field. In addition, the long wavelength regime and Wien's displacement law in this situation are studied. The corresponding thermodynamics quantities at thermal equilibrium, such as energy, pressure, entropy, and heat capacity densities are contemplated as well.

The “faithful” ayah in colonial households: gender, caste, and race of South Asian domestic labors
Creators: name: Chakraborty, Satyasikha
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: This dissertation analyzes domestic labors, exploitation, and intimacies in a range of colonial households from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries through a social and cultural history of a South Asian maidservant, the ayah. I argue that the gendered labors of the racialized ayah were crucial for the production and reproduction of the racial purity of the British imperial family, and the upper-caste upper-class Western modernity of the South Asian elite family. Excavating the stories of individual ayahs from legal, cultural, and medical archives, my dissertation provides an intimate domestic history of British mimicry of Mughal culture, British liberal imperialism, free-market colonial capitalist circulation of labor, anti-colonial Indian nationalism, and postcolonial South Asian modernity. In the process, it brings together British imperial and South Asian historiographies and weaves together the intersecting histories of gender, caste, race, sexuality, and labor. Race and caste are rarely analyzed together in the field of South Asian history, which this dissertation does through the critical lenses of gender, sexuality, and labor. I trace the two-way flow of colonial hierarchies by showing how caste entered British imperial households and how race entered South Asian elite households to shape the relationship between employers and maidservants. Theoretically and methodologically, this dissertation draws upon postcolonial subaltern studies as well as black feminist intersectionality. Although I argue that domestic hierarchies of caste and race did not always neatly intersect in South Asia, paying attention to the (non)intersecting gendered histories of race and caste adds an intersectional perspective to the study of subaltern and domestic histories in South Asia.While the existing literature on colonial domestic labor primarily focuses on employers’ perspectives and state regulation, this dissertation foregrounds the experiences, struggles, and anxieties of ayahs themselves as they worked for colonial employers, both British and South Asian. Ayahs not only negotiated with employers and the colonial bureaucracy, but also internalized South Asian socio-religious and patriarchal injunctions to preserve their caste-purity, morality, and gendered respectability. The enduring cultural sentimentalization of ayahs, this dissertation argues, invisibilized the precarious everyday realities of colonial maidservants.

description: A driven quantum system can experience Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg-Majorana (LZSM) transitions between its states, when the respective energy levels quasi-cross. If this quasicrossing is traversed repeatedly under periodic driving, the trajectories can interfere either constructively or destructively. In the latter case, known as coherent destruction of tunneling, the transition between the energy states is suppressed. Even for the double-passage case, the accumulated phase difference (also referred to as the Stuckelberg phase) can lead to destructive interference, resulting in no transition. In this paper, we discuss a similar process for the single-passage dynamics. We study the LZSM single-passage problem starting from a superposition state. The phase difference of this initial state results in interference. When this results in either a zero or a unit transition probability, such a situation can be called single-passage complete localization in a target state. The phase can be chosen so that the occupation probabilities do not change after the transition, which is analogous to the problem of transitionless driving. We demonstrate how varying the system parameters (driving velocity, initial phase, initial detuning) can be used for quantum coherent control.

description: This is the text of a public address at the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs delivered soon after the inauguration of Nigeria’s Fourth Republic. It identified several priorities after fifteen and a half years of military government. The country’s eroded legislative, judicial, and other state institutions needed to be rebuilt and Nigerian leadership restored among the continent’s democratizing states. The inverted pyramid of a “lootocracy”, in which public revenues flowed to a minority, had to turned around. Ending the depredations and violent conflicts in the Delta region afforded an opportunity to create new frameworks of shared development and group accommodation. It was a visionary and prescriptive statement. Sadly, all the challenges identified persist.

description: The study of topological band insulators has revealed fascinating phases characterized by band topology indices and anomalous boundary modes protected by global symmetries. In strongly correlated systems, where the traditional notion of electronic bands becomes obsolete, it has been established that the topological insulator phases persist as stable phases, separate from the trivial insulators. However, due to the inability to express the ground states of such systems as Slater determinants, the formulation of generic variational wavefunctions for numerical simulations is highly desirable.
 In this paper, we tackle this challenge for two-dimensional topological insulators by developing a comprehensive framework for fermionic tensor network states. Starting from simple assumptions, we obtain possible sets of tensor equations for any given symmetry group, capturing consistent relations governing symmetry transformation rules on tensor legs. We then examine the connections between these tensor equations and non-chiral topological insulators by construing edge theories and extracting quantum anomaly data from each set of tensor equations. By exhaustively exploring all possible sets of equations, we achieve a systematic classification of non-chiral topological insulator phases. Imposing the solutions of a given set of equations onto local tensors, we obtain generic variational wavefunctions for corresponding topological insulator phases. Our methodology provides an important step towards simulating topological insulators in strongly correlated systems. We discuss the limitations and potential generalizations of our results, paving the way for further advancements in this field.

description: Cultural heritage applications and advanced machine learning models are creating a fruitful synergy to provide effective and accessible ways of interacting with artworks. Smart audio-guides, personalized art-related content and gamification approaches are just a few examples of how technology can be exploited to provide additional value to artists or exhibitions. Nonetheless, from a machine learning point of view, the amount of available artistic data is often not enough to train effective models. Off-the-shelf computer vision modules can still be exploited to some extent, yet a severe domain shift is present between art images and standard natural image datasets used to train such models. As a result, this can lead to degraded performance. This paper introduces a novel approach to address the challenges of limited annotated data and domain shifts in the cultural heritage domain. By leveraging generative vision-language models, we augment art datasets by generating diverse variations of artworks conditioned on their captions. This augmentation strategy enhances dataset diversity, bridging the gap between natural images and artworks, and improving the alignment of visual cues with knowledge from general-purpose datasets. The generated variations assist in training vision and language models with a deeper understanding of artistic characteristics and that are able to generate better captions with appropriate jargon.

Statistical underpinning of mutational signature analyses of cancer sequencing data

description: Cancer is a disease driven and characterised by mutations in the DNA. Thanks to massively parallel sequencing technologies, it is now possible to obtain the sequence of a cancer genome. The advent of modern sequencing technologies has allowed researchers to study the mutations involved in tumour development. More recently, attention has been drawn to the `passenger' mutations that are not involved in tumour development but bear fingerprints of the mutational processes that have been operative over a patient's lifetime. Those fingerprints, termed mutational signatures, appear consistently across cancer genomes that have been exposed to the underlying mutational processes. Computational analyses have identified over a hundred such signatures, and it is now possible to estimate the relative prevalence of mutational signatures in a cancer genome. Both types of analyses are perhaps unique in the medical literature, in that no confidence intervals or other representations of uncertainty are demanded when reporting the results. In this thesis, we address the problem of quantifying uncertainty around the reported mutational signatures and their relative prevalence in individual tumours. First, in Chapter 2, we review the available computational methods for mutational signature analyses, assessing the potential of existing approaches to characterise uncertainty. Then, in Chapter 3, we annotate ten statistical challenges. The remainder of the thesis is built on the aim of addressing some of those challenges. To estimate the relative prevalence of mutational signatures in individual tumours, a method that quantifies the uncertainty around the estimated solution is lacking. Moreover, those analyses assume that the true values for the signatures are `known' as they are propagated from previous analyses. In Chapter 4, we suggest a setting where the signatures are `partially known'. We propose a novel approach for this problem, in a Bayesian setting, providing credible intervals around the estimated solution, propagating prior uncertainty regarding `partially known' signatures, and updating prior beliefs about them. Estimation of mutational signatures is often performed in a matrix factorisation setting that is not fully probabilistic. While an alternative fully probabilistic approach is available, a post-processing method is needed to characterise the uncertainty around the reported solution. In Chapter 5, we introduce a novel post-processing approach to quantify uncertainty around the mutational signatures estimated in a cohort of cancer patients, along with software that allows investigators to use the proposed method and visualise results.

description: We propose controlling the hybridization between Majorana zero modes at the ends of magnetic adatom chains on superconductors by an additional magnetic adatom deposited close by. By tuning the additional adatom's magnetization, position, and coupling to the superconductor, we can couple and decouple the Majorana modes as well as control the ground state parity. The scheme is independent of microscopic details in ferromagnetic and helical magnetic chains on superconductors with and without spin-orbit coupling, which we show by studying their full microscopic models and their common low-energy description. Our results show that scanning tunneling microscopy and electron spin resonance techniques are promising tools for controlling the Majorana hybridization in magnetic adatoms-superconductor setups, providing a basis for Majorana parity measurements, fusion, and braiding techniques.

It Ain't That Bad: Understanding the Mysterious Performance Drop in OOD Generalization for Generative Transformer Models

description: Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable proficiency on solving diverse problems. However, their generalization ability is not always satisfying and the generalization problem is common for generative transformer models in general. Researchers take basic mathematical tasks like n-digit addition or multiplication as important perspectives for investigating their generalization behaviors. It is observed that when training models on n-digit operations (e.g., additions) in which both input operands are n-digit in length, models generalize successfully on unseen n-digit inputs (in-distribution (ID) generalization), but fail miserably on longer, unseen cases (out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization). We bring this unexplained performance drop into attention and ask whether there is systematic OOD generalization. Towards understanding LLMs, we train various smaller language models which may share the same underlying mechanism. We discover that the strong ID generalization stems from structured representations, while behind the unsatisfying OOD performance, the models still exhibit clear learned algebraic structures. Specifically, these models map unseen OOD inputs to outputs with learned equivalence relations in the ID domain, which we call the equivalence generalization. These findings deepen our knowledge regarding the generalizability of generative models including LLMs, and provide insights into potential avenues for improvement.

Notes: X. bispinus primarily develops on old man‘s beard (Clematis vitalba L.) (Fiala 2021). Its occurrence in Albania was first reported by Kleine (1913b), but this record lacked detail and was not subsequently confirmed. Since then, X. bispinus has been documented in all countries of the former Yugoslavia as well as in Greece (Karaman 1971; Alonso-Zarazaga et al. 2023).

Notes: H. attenuatus is associated with the stumps of various pine species (Pinus spp.) (Pfeffer 1955). Its occurrence has been recorded in Dalmatia (Kleine 1913b; Langhoffer 1921; Karaman 1971). Langhoffer (1921) also mentioned the locality of Krapina; however, the exact country is unclear, as villages with this name exist in Montenegro, Croatia, and Slovenia. This species is listed for two countries (Serbia and Montenegro, abbreviated as ‚YU‘) in a checklist of bark beetles associated with Mediterranean conifers (Lieutier et al. 2016), although no specific records have been published. Interestingly, despite being a common bark beetle species, H. attenuatus is absent from the collection of Prof. S. Živojinović (Marković 2013).

Notes: P. curvidens infests the lower parts of the trunks of mature silver firs (Abies alba Mill.) (Pfeffer 1955). This species is so common in Croatia that it causes economic damage to fir stands (Pernek & Lacković 2011). P. curvidens is present in all countries of the former Yugoslavia (Karaman 1971) but has not been previously confirmed in Montenegro, although it is mentioned in a general FAO report on forest resource assessment (Jovic 2005). It is also listed for Serbia and Montenegro (abbreviated as ‚YU‘) in a checklist of bark beetles inhabiting Mediterranean conifers (Lieutier et al. 2016). Interestingly, despite being a very common pest, P. curvidens was not found in the collection of Prof. S. Živojinović (Marković 2013).

description: Directly imaging Earth-sized exoplanets with a visible-light coronagraph instrument on a space telescope will require a system that can achieve $\sim10^{-10}$ raw contrast and maintain it for the duration of observations (on the order of hours or more). We are designing, manufacturing, and testing Dual Purpose Lyot coronagraph (DPLC) masks that allow for simultaneous wavefront sensing and control using out-of-band light to maintain high contrast in the science focal plane. Our initial design uses a tiered metallic focal plane occulter to suppress starlight in the transmitted coronagraph channel and a dichroic-coated substrate to reflect out-of-band light to a wavefront sensing camera. The occulter design introduces a phase shift such that the reflected channel is a Zernike wavefront sensor. The dichroic coating allows higher-order wavefront errors to be detected which is especially critical for compensating for residual drifts from an actively-controlled segmented primary mirror. A second-generation design concept includes a metasurface to create polarization-dependent phase shifts in the reflected beam, which has several advantages including an extended dynamic range. We will present the focal plane mask designs, characterization, and initial testing at NASA's High Contrast Imaging Testbed (HCIT) facility.

Quasinormal modes of the bumblebee black holes with a global monopole
Creators: name: Malik, Zainab

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We compute quasinormal modes of test fields around spherically symmetric black holes with a global monopole in bumblebee gravity. The frequency of oscillation and the damping rate exhibit significant decreasing as the global monopole parameter is increased. An intriguing observation arises in the extreme limit, where the quasinormal modes manifest a form of universal behavior: the actual oscillation frequency remains unaltered despite variations in the Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB) parameter. Our calculations are conducted through two distinct methods, both of which yield results that align remarkably well. Furthermore, we derive an analytical formula for quasinormal modes within the eikonal approximation and beyond it. In the limits of either vanishing deficit angle or bumblebee parameters, the compact and sufficiently accurate analytic expressions for quasinormal modes are obtained.
