description: Graph-based representations play a key role in machine learning. The fundamental step in these representations is the association of a graph structure to a dataset. In this paper, we propose a method that aims at finding a block sparse representation of the graph signal leading to a modular graph whose Laplacian matrix admits the found dictionary as its eigenvectors. The role of sparsity here is to induce a band-limited representation or, equivalently, a modular structure of the graph. The proposed strategy is composed of two optimization steps: i) learning an orthonormal sparsifying transform from the data; ii) recovering the Laplacian, and then topology, from the transform. The first step is achieved through an iterative algorithm whose alternating intermediate solutions are expressed in closed form. The second step recovers the Laplacian matrix from the sparsifying transform through a convex optimization method. Numerical results corroborate the effectiveness of the proposed methods over both synthetic data and real brain data, used for inferring the brain functionality network through experiments conducted over patients affected by epilepsy.

description: We propose a mechanism to generate large-scale magnetic fields with correlation lengths of 100 kpc. Domain walls with QCD scale internal structure form and coalesce obtaining Hubble scale correlations and align nucleon spins. Due to strong CP violation, nucleons in these walls have anomalous electric and magnetic dipole moments and thus the walls are ferromagnetic. This induces electromagnetic fields with Hubble size correlations. The same CP violation also induces a maximal helicity (Chern-Simons) correlated through the Hubble volume which supports an inverse cascade allowing the initial correlations to grow to 100 kpc today. We estimate the generated electromagnetic fields in terms of the QCD parameters and discuss the effects of the resulting fields.

description: Frustrated quantum magnets are expected to host many exotic quantum spin states like quantum spin liquid (QSL), and have attracted numerous interest in modern condensed matter physics. The discovery of the triangular lattice spin liquid candidate YbMgGaO$_4$ stimulated an increasing attention on the rare-earth-based frustrated magnets with strong spin-orbit coupling. Here we report the synthesis and characterization of a large family of rare-earth chalcogenides AReCh$_2$ (A = alkali or monovalent ions, Re = rare earth, Ch = O, S, Se). The family compounds share the same structure (R$\bar{3}$m) as YbMgGaO$_4$, and antiferromagnetically coupled rare-earth ions form perfect triangular layers that are well separated along the $c$-axis. Specific heat and magnetic susceptibility measurements on NaYbO$_2$, NaYbS$_2$ and NaYbSe$_2$ single crystals and polycrystals, reveal no structural or magnetic transition down to 50mK. The family, having the simplest structure and chemical formula among the known QSL candidates, removes the issue on possible exchange disorders in YbMgGaO$_4$. More excitingly, the rich diversity of the family members allows tunable charge gaps, variable exchange coupling, and many other advantages. This makes the family an ideal platform for fundamental research of QSLs and its promising applications.

description: We investigate the formation of spherical cosmological structures following both dark matter and gas components. We focus on the dynamical aspect of the collapse assuming an adiabatic, $γ= 5/3$, fully ionized primordial plasma. We use for that purpose a fully Lagrangian hydrodynamical code designed to describe highly compressible flows in spherical geometry. We investigate also a "fluid approach" to describe the mean physical quantities of the dark matter flow. We test its validity for a wide range of initial density contrast. We show that an homogeneous isentropic core forms in the gas distribution, surrounded by a self-similar hydrostatic halo, with much higher entropy generated by shock dissipation. We derive analytical expressions for the size, density and temperature of the core, as well as for the surrounding halo. We show that, unless very efficient heating processes occur in the intergalactic medium, we are unable to reproduce within adiabatic models the typical core sizes in X-ray clusters. We also show that, for dynamical reasons only, the gas distribution is naturally antibiased relative to the total mass distribution, without invoking any reheating processes. This could explain why the gas fraction increases with radius in very large X-ray clusters. As a preparation for the next study devoted to the thermodynamical aspect of the collapse, we investigate the initial entropy level required to solve the core problem in X-ray clusters.

description: Chiral fermions resisted being put on the lattice for twenty years. This raised the suspicion that asymptotically free chiral gauge theories were not renormalizable outside perturbation theory and therefore could not be mathematically extended to infinite energies. During the last several years the situation has reversed itself. Today we believe that all the essential ingredients for a full lattice definition of non-anomalous chiral gauge theories are in place within the overlap construction. This construction is based on earlier work by Callan and Harvey, by Kaplan and by Frolov and Slavnov. It can be reinterpreted as coming from the Ginsparg-Wilson relation, but, at the moment, it is a unique construction and therefore might also be the way by which Nature itself regularizes chiral fermions. This is yet another instance in which lattice field theory makes a potentially important contribution to fundamental particle physics.

We show that this problem can be reexpressed as one of computing free energy differences and sampling the tails of statistical distributions. Using Metadynamics, a realistic problem like that of two electrons confined in a quantum dot can be solved. We believe that this is a strategy that can possibly be extended to more complex systems.

We found 8 such neutrino textures three of which can solve the solar neutrino problem. The latter have tau-neutrino masses of few eV i.e. relevant for cosmology and $ν_τ - ν_μ$ mixing angles that can be observed by the CHORUS, NOMAD and P803 experiments.

description: Historically, spices have played an important economic role, due to their large applications and unique flavor. The supply and cost of spice materials and their corresponding natural products are often affected by environmental, geopolitical and climatic conditions. Secondary metabolite composition, including certain flavor compounds in spice plants, is recognized and considered closely related to plant classification. Both genes and enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of spice flavors are constantly identified, which provides insight into metabolic engineering of flavor compounds (i.e. aroma and pungent compounds) from spice plants. In this review, a systematic meta-analysis was carried out based on a comprehensive literature survey of the flavor profiles of 36 spice plants from nine families. We also reviewed typical biosynthetic pathways and metabolic engineering of most representative aroma and pungent compounds that may assist in the future study of spice plants as biosynthetic factories facing a new challenge in creating spice products.

description: Reparametrization invariance being treated as a gauge symmetry shows some specific peculiarities. We study these peculiarities both from a general point of view and on concrete examples. We consider the canonical treatment of reparametrization invariant systems in which one fixes the gauge on the classical level by means of time-dependent gauge conditions. In such an approach one can interpret different gauges as different reference frames. We discuss the relations between different gauges and the problem of gauge invariance in this case. Finally, we establish a general structure of reparametrizations and its connection with the zero-Hamiltonian phenomenon.

description: This study is a systematic review of the literature on systemic injustice and wellbeing among refugees and asylum seekers. The review was conducted using the PRISMA guidelines for conducting systematic reviews. Four main databases were searched, and studies were screened based on specific inclusion criteria. The data were extracted and analysed using thematic analysis. Fourteen studies, with various research designs met the study inclusion criteria. The themes identified were that “justice is human rights and a balance in power”. Consequences of experiencing systemic injustice were highlighted in the theme of “mistrust in the legal system and a preference for informal forms of justice”. Systemic injustice has negative impacts on wellbeing which formed the themes of “injustice and wellbeing”, “sense of agency/control” and “anger at injustice”. Experiences of systemic injustice have a negative impact on the wellbeing of refugees and asylum seekers. Implications for refugee and asylum seeker wellbeing are discussed along with suggestions for working with this population. KEY POINTS What is already known about this topic:(1) Justice is fundamentally important to humans.(2) Experiencing an injustice has many negative consequences for wellbeing.(3) People with refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds face many risk factors for negative wellbeing and mental health.

Magnetic Z(N) symmetry in hot QCD and the spatial Wilson loop

description: We discuss the relation between the deconfining phase transition in gauge theories and the realization of the magnetic Z(N) symmetry. At low temperature the Z(N) symmetry is spontaneously broken while above the phase transition it is restored. This is intimately related to the change of behaviour of the spatial 't Hooft loop discussed in hep-ph/9909516. We also point out that the realization of the magnetic symmetry has bearing on the behaviour of the spatial Wilson loop. We give a physical argument to the effect that at zero temperature the spatial Wilson loop must have perimeter law behaviour in the symmetric phase but area law behaviour in the spontaneously broken phase. At high temperature the argument does not hold and the restoration of magnetic Z(N) is consistent with area law for the Wilson loop.

description: Well before the radio discovery of pulsars offered the first observational confirmation for their existence (Hewish et al., 1968), it had been suggested that neutron stars might be endowed with very strong magnetic fields of $10^{10}$-$10^{14}$G (Hoyle et al., 1964; Pacini, 1967). It is because of their magnetic fields that these otherwise small ed inert, cooling dead stars emit radio pulses and shine in various part of the electromagnetic spectrum. But the presence of a strong magnetic field has more subtle and sometimes dramatic consequences: In the last decades of observations indeed, evidence mounted that it is likely the magnetic field that makes of an isolated neutron star what it is among the different observational manifestations in which they come. The contribution of the magnetic field to the energy budget of the neutron star can be comparable or even exceed the available kinetic energy. The most magnetised neutron stars in particular, the magnetars, exhibit an amazing assortment of explosive events, underlining the importance of their magnetic field in their lives. In this chapter we review the recent observational and theoretical achievements, which not only confirmed the importance of the magnetic field in the evolution of neutron stars, but also provide a promising unification scheme for the different observational manifestations in which they appear. We focus on the role of their magnetic field as an energy source behind their persistent emission, but also its critical role in explosive events.

description: We reconsider the collapse of cosmic structures in an Einstein-de Sitter Universe, using the self similar initial conditions of Fillmore & Goldreich (1984). We first derive a new approximation to describe the dark matter dynamics in spherical geometry, that we refer to the "fluid approach". This method enables us to recover the self-similarity solutions of Fillmore & Goldreich for dark matter. We derive also new self-similarity solutions for the gas. We thus compare directly gas and dark matter dynamics, focusing on the differences due to their different dimensionalities in velocity space. This work may have interesting consequences for gas and dark matter distributions in large galaxy clusters, allowing to explain why the total mass profile is always steeper than the X-ray gas profile. We discuss also the shape of the dark matter density profile found in N-body simulations in terms of a change of dimensionality in the dark matter velocity space. The stable clustering hypothesis has been finally considered in the light of this analytical approach.

description: Mirror matter models have been suggested recently as an explanation of neutrino puzzles and microlensing anomalies. We show that mirror supernovae can be a copious source of energetic gamma rays if one assumes that the quantum gravity scale is in the TeV range. We show that under certain assumptions plausible in the mirror models, the gamma energies could be degraded to the 10 MeV range (and perhaps even further) so as to provide an explanation of observed gamma ray bursts. This mechanism for the origin of the gamma ray bursts has the advantage that it neatly avoids the ``baryon load problem''.

description: It is cost-efficient for a tenant with a limited budget to establish a virtual MapReduce cluster by renting multiple virtual private servers (VPSs) from a VPS provider. To provide an appropriate scheduling scheme for this type of computing environment, we propose in this paper a hybrid job-driven scheduling scheme (JoSS for short) from a tenant's perspective. JoSS provides not only job level scheduling, but also map-task level scheduling and reduce-task level scheduling. JoSS classifies MapReduce jobs based on job scale and job type and designs an appropriate scheduling policy to schedule each class of jobs. The goal is to improve data locality for both map tasks and reduce tasks, avoid job starvation, and improve job execution performance. Two variations of JoSS are further introduced to separately achieve a better map-data locality and a faster task assignment. We conduct extensive experiments to evaluate and compare the two variations with current scheduling algorithms supported by Hadoop. The results show that the two variations outperform the other tested algorithms in terms of map-data locality, reduce-data locality, and network overhead without incurring significant overhead. In addition, the two variations are separately suitable for different MapReduce-workload scenarios and provide the best job performance among all tested algorithms.

In quantum information processing, random unitary operations are essential to boson sampling algorithms for multiphoton states in linear photonic circuits. In photonic circuits, random operations are realized through disordered structures resulting in fixed unitary operations or through large meshes of interferometers and reconfigurable phase shifters, which require a large number of phase shifters. In this article, we introduce a compact photonic circuit for generating random matrices by utilizing programmable phase modulation layers interlaced with a fixed mixing operator. We show that using only two random phase layers is sufficient for producing output optical signals with a white-noise profile, even for highly sparse input optical signals. We experimentally demonstrate these results using a silicon photonics circuit with tunable thermal phase shifters and utilize waveguide lattices as mixing layers. The proposed circuit offers a practical method for generating random matrices for photonic information processing and for applications in data encryption.

description: After giving a short introduction to the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with an anomaly term, we show the importance of the scalar-scalar correlation in the low-energy hadron dynamics, which correlation may be summarized by a scalar-isoscalar meson, the sigma meson. The discussion is based on the chiral quark model with the sigma-meson degrees of freedom. Possible experiments are proposed to produce the elusive meson in a nucleus and detect it. In relation to a precursory soft mode for the chiral transition, the reason is clarified why the dynamic properties of the superconductor may be described by the diffusive time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL) equation. We indicate the chiral symmetry plays a significant role also in nuclei; one may say that the stability of nuclei is due to the chiral symmetry of QCD.

description: Two families of models of dusty tori in AGNs (moderately thick and extended versus very thick and compact) are tested against available observations. The confrontation suggests that the former class better explains the IR broad-band spectra of both broad and narrow line AGNs, the anisotropy of the emission deduced by comparing IR properties of Seyfert 1 and 2 nuclei, the results of IR spectroscopy and those of high spatial resolution observations. There is however clear evidence for a broad distribution of optical depths. We also examine the relationship between IR and X-ray emission. The data support a view in which the matter responsible for the X-ray absorption is mostly dust free, lying inside the dust sublimation radius. The consequences of these results for the hard X-ray background as well as IR counts and background are discussed.

description: We argue that supersymmetric higher-dimension operators in the effective actions of M-theory and IIB string theory do not affect the maximally supersymmetric vacua: $adS_4\times S^7$ and $adS_7\times S^4$ in M-theory and $adS_5\times S^5$ in IIB string theory. All these vacua are described in superspace by a fixed point with all components of supertorsion and supercurvature being supercovariantly constant. This follows from 32 unbroken supersymmetries and allows us to prove that such vacua are exact.

description: To solve the limitation of Hadoop on scalability, resource sharing, and application support, the open-source community proposes the next generation of Hadoop's compute platform called Yet Another Resource Negotiator (YARN) by separating resource management functions from the programming model. This separation enables various application types to run on YARN in parallel. To achieve fair resource sharing and high resource utilization, YARN provides the capacity scheduler and the fair scheduler. However, the performance impacts of the two schedulers are not clear when mixed applications run on a YARN cluster. Therefore, in this paper, we study four scheduling-policy combinations (SPCs for short) derived from the two schedulers and then evaluate the four SPCs in extensive scenarios, which consider not only four application types, but also three different queue structures for organizing applications. The experimental results enable YARN managers to comprehend the influences of different SPCs and different queue structures on mixed applications. The results also help them to select a proper SPC and an appropriate queue structure to achieve better application execution performance.

description: Single image defocus deblurring (SIDD) aims to restore an all-in-focus image from a defocused one. Distribution shifts in defocused images generally lead to performance degradation of existing methods during out-of-distribution inferences. In this work, we gauge the intrinsic reason behind the performance degradation, which is identified as the heterogeneity of lens-specific point spread functions. Empirical evidence supports this finding, motivating us to employ a continual test-time adaptation (CTTA) paradigm for SIDD. However, traditional CTTA methods, which primarily rely on entropy minimization, cannot sufficiently explore task-dependent information for pixel-level regression tasks like SIDD. To address this issue, we propose a novel Siamese networks-based continual test-time adaptation framework, which adapts source models to continuously changing target domains only requiring unlabeled target data in an online manner. To further mitigate semantically erroneous textures introduced by source SIDD models under severe degradation, we revisit the learning paradigm through a structural causal model and propose Causal Siamese networks (CauSiam). Our method leverages large-scale pre-trained vision-language models to derive discriminative universal semantic priors and integrates these priors into Siamese networks, ensuring causal identifiability between blurry inputs and restored images. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CauSiam effectively improves the generalization performance of existing SIDD methods in continuously changing domains.

Theory and analysis of the luminance of top-emitting and bottom-emitting OLEDs
Creators: name: Wasule, Sumant Rajendra
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2021

description: The pioneering work by Tang and Van Slyke in 1987 that invented organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) resulted in considerable attention to these devices in both academic and industrial circles. OLEDs have very unique properties compared to traditional light-emitting devices such as synthetically tunable emission colors and color temperatures. There are two general types of OLED device structures: bottom-emitting OLEDs and top-emitting OLEDs. Electrons and holes are injected into the organic semiconducting emissive layer via electrical contacts (one metallic and one transparent, e.g. indium-tin oxide (ITO)) in combination with an electron injection layer and a hole injection layer, respectively. In the organic semiconducting emissive layer, holes and electrons combine to emit light (photons). However, because of the high refractive indices of ITO and glass used on the transparent side of most bottom-emitting OLED devices, the emitted light tends to get trapped in the ITO or glass substrate due to total internal reflection at the interfaces thus reducing the light extraction efficiency. In contrast, top-emitting OLEDs can have reduced waveguiding losses due to thinner or lower refractive index transparent layers. The hypothesis of this thesis is that the efficiency of organic conjugated polymer–based top-emitting OLEDs is greater than that of bottom-emitting OLEDs because of reduced total internal reflection and waveguiding losses. Organic conjugated polymer semiconductors are of interest in this work as the emissive layer instead of more-common small-molecule organic semiconductors because they offer solution process-ability which can lower the overall cost of the OLEDs. The objectives of this project are: to compare the performance of polymer-based bottom-emitting and top-emitting OLEDs using optoelectronic simulation software, to compare current - voltage, light flux - voltage, light flux - current density, light flux - input power relationships; and to determine the OLED external quantum efficiency. Additionally, fabrication methods for both device types are developed and the optical and electrical properties of both the devices are compared.
