description: Stability and diversity are two key properties that living entities share with spin glasses, where they are manifested through the breaking of the phase space into many valleys or local minima connected by saddle points. The topology of the phase space can be conveniently condensed into a tree structure, akin to the biological phylogenetic trees, whose tips are the local minima and internal nodes are the lowest-energy saddles connecting those minima. For the infinite-range Ising spin glass with p-spin interactions, we show that the average size-frequency distribution of saddles obeys a power law $ \sim w^{-D}$, where w=w(s) is the number of minima that can be connected through saddle s, and D is the fractal dimension of the phase space.

description: Boltzmann's principle S(E,N,V...)=ln W(E,N,V...) allows the interpretation of Statistical Mechanics of a closed system as Pseudo-Riemannian geometry in the space of the conserved parameters E,N,V... (the conserved mechanical parameters in the language of Ruppeiner) without invoking the thermodynamic limit. The topology is controlled by the curvature of S(E,N,V...). The most interesting region is the region of (wrong) positive maximum curvature, the region of phase-separation. This is demonstrated among others for the equilibrium of a typical non-extensive system, a self-gravitating and rotating cloud in a spherical container at various energies and angular-momenta. A rich variety of realistic configurations, as single stars, multi-star systems, rings and finally gas, are obtained as equilibrium microcanonical phases. The global phase diagram, the topology of the curvature, as function of energy and angular-momentum is presented. No exotic form of thermodynamics like Tsallis non-extensive one is necessary. It is further shown that a finite (even mesoscopic) system approaches equilibrium with a change of its entropy Delta S\ge 0 (Second Law) even when its Poincarre recurrence time is not large.

description: Österreichische Start-up-Unternehmen erfahren national hohe Aufmerksamkeit im Zusammenhang mit ihrem Beitrag zum Wirtschaftsstandort Österreich. Insbesondere Unternehmen aus dem Hochtechnologiebereich stehen dabei im Vordergrund. Eine wesentliche Rolle zur Entwicklung jener Start-ups spielen die Wachstumsphase und die dafür angewandten Strategien. Der wissenschaftliche Nutzen dieser Arbeit fokussiert auf die Entwicklung und Auswahl jener strategischen Ansätze, die sich positiv auf das Wachstum von Start-ups auswirken. Dabei werden die österreichischen Spezifika in den Bereichen Finanzierung, Personal sowie Geschäftsmodelle in Korrelation gestellt. Zur Identifikation des Forschungsbedarfs wurde eine initiale Literaturrecherche durchgeführt, auf deren Basis die zu evaluierenden Forschungsfragen ermittelt wurden. Die theoretischen Grundlagen wurden mittels einer Analyse bestehender Literatur erhoben und durch empirische Sozialforschung in einem qualitativen Design mit problemzentrierten Interviews ergänzt. Die Auswertung basierte auf der qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse nach Kuckartz (vgl. 2018). Die resultierenden Forschungsergebnisse zeigen weitestgehend eine Deckungsgleichheit zwischen Theorie und Empirie. Die vorwiegend implementierten strategischen Wachstumsansätze beziehen sich auf die Handlungsfelder Marktdurchdringung sowie Produkt- beziehungsweise Marktentwicklung, speziell mit Hinblick auf eine mögliche Expansion. Diversifikation wird aufgrund der fehlenden finanziellen Mittel und einer eingeschränkten Fokussierung auf die Kernkompetenzen des Start-ups als nebensächlich und unüblich gesehen. Die ExpertInnen benennen Besonderheiten in der Wachstumsphase mit Mitarbeiterbeteiligungen, Verbesserung der RWR-Karte sowie Änderungen der steuerrechtlichen Voraussetzungen für Risikokapital. Eine dementsprechende Behandlung dieser Themen könnte zu einer Verbesserung der Wachstumsaussichten von österreichischen Start-ups führen. Relevanz für einen weiteren Forschungsbedarf ergibt sich insofern, als dass die Literatur kaum spezifische Branchen konkretisiert und ein direkter Vergleich von Chancen und Risiken für Start-up-Wachstum unterschiedlicher Staaten nicht abgebildet ist. Eine Differenzierung zwischen Wachstumsstrategien für Start-ups und jenen für andere Unternehmenstypen könnte die identifizierten strategischen Handlungsfelder weiter präzisieren.

description: We study the non-adiabatic cosmological production of ultra light dark matter (ULDM) under a minimal set of assumptions: a free ultra light real scalar as a spectator field in its Bunch-Davies vacuum state during inflation and instantaneous reheating into a radiation dominated era. For (ULDM) fields minimally coupled to gravity, non-adiabatic particle production yields a \emph{distribution function} peaked at \emph{low} comoving momentum $\mathcal{N}_k \propto 1/k^3$. The infrared behavior is a remnant of the infrared enhancement of light minimally coupled fields during inflation. We obtain the full energy momentum tensor, show explicity its equivalence with the fluid-kinetic one in the adiabatic regime, and extract the abundance, equation of state and free streaming length (cutoff in the matter power spectrum). Taking the upper bound on the scale of inflation from Planck, the (UDLM) saturates the dark matter abundance for $m \simeq 1.5\,\times 10^{-5}\mathrm{eV}$ with an equation of state parameter $w \simeq 10^{-14}$ and a free streaming length $λ_{fs} \simeq 70\,\mathrm{pc}$. Thus this cosmologically produced (ULDM) yields a \emph{cold} dark matter particle. We argue that the abundance from non-adiabatic production yields a \emph{lower bound} on generic (ULDM) and axion-like particles that must be included in any assessment of (ULDM) as a dark matter candidate.

description: In this work we prove a bound for the torsion in Mordell-Weil groups of smooth elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau 3- and 4-folds. In particular, we show that the set which can occur on a smooth elliptic Calabi-Yau $n$-fold for ($n\geq 3$) is contained in the set of subgroups which appear on a rational elliptic surface, and is slightly larger for $n = 2$. The key idea in our proof is showing that any elliptic fibration with sufficiently large torsion has singularities in codimension 2 which do not admit a crepant resolution. We prove this by explicitly constructing and studying maps to a modular curve whose existence is predicted by a universal property. We use the geometry of modular curves to explain the minimal singularities that appear on an elliptic fibration with prescribed torsion, and to determine the degree of the fundamental line bundle (hence the Kodaira dimension) of the universal elliptic surface which we show to be consistent with explicit Weierstrass models. The constraints from the modular curves are used to bound the first fundamental group of any gauge group $G$ in a supergravity theory obtained from F-theory. We comment on the isolated 8-dimensional theories, obtained from extremal K3's, that are able to circumvent lower dimensional bounds. These theories neither have a heterotic dual, nor can they be compactified to lower dimensional minimal SUGRA theories. We also comment on the maximal, discrete gauged symmetries obtained from certain Calabi-Yau threefold quotients.

description: The Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin transformations (LKFTs) represent an important tool for probing the gauge dependence of the correlation functions within the class of linear covariant gauges. Recently these transformations have been derived from first principles in the context of non-Abelian gauge theory (QCD) introducing a gauge invariant transverse gauge field expressible as an infinite power series in a Stueckelberg field. In this work we explicitly calculate the transformation for the gluon propagator, reproducing its dependence on the gauge parameter at the one loop level and elucidating the role of the extra fields involved in this theoretical framework. Later on, employing a unifying scheme based upon the BRST symmetry and a resulting generalized Slavnov-Taylor identity, we establish the equivalence between the LKFTs and the Nielsen identities which are also known to connect results in different gauges.

description: This study mapped and diagnosed the fresh pineapple supply chains in Benin to identify bottlenecks in pineapple quality improvement for different markets. A research framework was defined that comprised all relevant aspects to be researched. After 54 semi-structured interviews with key informants, 173 structured interviews were held with actor groups. The chain diagnosis showed there was no concordance between actor groups in which quality attribute they valued most. Moreover, pineapple quality was found to be highly heterogeneous. Key bottlenecks identified were lack of training of primary producers in production practices, unconditioned transport, and unavailability of boxes for export.

description: This study investigates empirical methods of generating prediction intervals for WASDE forecasts of corn, soybean, and wheat prices over the 1980/81 through 2006/07 marketing years. Empirical methods use historical forecast errors to estimate forecast error distributions, which are then used to predict confidence limits of forecasts. Five procedures were used to estimate empirical confidence limits, including histograms, kernel density estimation, logistic distribution, quantile regression, and quantile regression with stocks-to-use ratios. The procedures were compared based on out-of-sample performance, where the first 15 observations (1980/81- 1994/95) were used to generate confidence limits for the 16th year (1995/96); the first 16 observations were used to generate confidence limits for the 17th year (1996/97) and so on. Based on the results of accuracy tests for empirical confidence intervals over 1995/96 through 2006/07, all five empirical procedures included in this study generated confidence intervals that were not significantly different from the target confidence levels (80% pre-harvest and 90% post harvest). When monthly hit rates were averaged pre- and post-harvest across all three commodities, the kernel density-based method appears most accurate prior to harvest with an average hit rate of 82%, followed by the logistic distribution (76%), quantile regression-based methods (71-72%), and histogram (71%). After harvest, the kernel density-based method and the quantile regression-based method were the most accurate with average hit rates of 95%, followed by the logistic distribution based methods (92%), the histogram-based methods (89%), and the quantile regression methods with stocks/use ratio (88%). Overall, this study demonstrates that empirical approaches may be used to construct more accurate confidence intervals for WASDE corn, soybean, and wheat price forecasts.

description: Achieving intrapartum maternal euglycemia in women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is critical to reducing the risk of neonatal hypoglycemia. This study sought to compare the maternal and neonatal outcomes among women with T1DM by different intrapartum glycemic control strategies of continuation of subcutaneous insulin pumps versus intravenous insulin infusion. A retrospective cohort study was performed to identify all women with type 1 diabetes mellitus in pregnancy between 1 October 2017 and 1 August 2020 at our tertiary medical center. Medical records were reviewed for sociodemographic, clinical characteristics, and perinatal outcomes. A composite neonatal outcome was created to include one or more of the following outcomes: 5-minute APGAR less than 7, neonatal intensive care unit admission, neonatal hypoglycemia, or respiratory distress. We identified 75 women with T1DM that met inclusion criteria, 27(36%) who remained on their subcutaneous insulin pump and 48(64%) who were transitioned to intravenous insulin infusion intrapartum. Women that continued subcutaneous insulin were more likely to be older (30.5 vs. 28.1, p = .04), multiparous (74% vs. 50%, p = .042), and have a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) (93% vs. 43%, p < .001). There was no difference in maternal hypoglycemic events (14.8% vs. 18.8%, p = .76) or severe hyperglycemia (greater than 250 mg/dL)/development of diabetic ketoacidosis (3.7% vs. 4.2%, p = .99) in labor between both groups. There was no difference in neonatal composite outcome when adjusted for gestational age at delivery, maternal age, parity, and CGM use for both groups (aOR 0.73, 95% CI 0.12–4.43, p = .728). Continuation of subcutaneous insulin in the intrapartum period appears to be a reasonable option in women with T1DM, however future, larger studies are needed to confirm this. Both patient and provider must be comfortable with this intrapartum strategy for effective glycemic control.

description: We study the Einstein-Dirac equation as well as the weak Killing equation on Riemannian spin manifolds with codimension one foliation. We prove that, for any manifold $M^n$ admitting real Killing spinors (resp. parallel spinors), there exist warped product metrics $\barη$ on $M^n \times {\mathbb R}$ such that $(M^n \times {\mathbb R}, \barη)$ admit Einstein spinors (resp. weak Killing spinors). To prove the result we split the Einstein-Dirac equation into evolution equations and constraints, by means of Cartan's frame formalism, and apply the local preservation property of constraints.

description: Blue supergiant stars can be exceptionally bright objects in the optical, making them prime targets for the determination of extragalactic distances. I describe how their photometric and spectroscopic properties can be calibrated to provide a measurement of their luminosity. I first review two well-known techniques, the luminosity of the brightest blue supergiants and, with the aid of recent spectroscopic data, the equivalent width of the Balmer lines. Next I discuss some recent developments concerning the luminosity dependence of the wind momentum and of the flux-weighted gravity, which can provide, if properly calibrated, powerful diagnostics for the determination of the distance to the parent galaxies.

description: The lack of consistently acceptable convergence performance for Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) corn, soybean, and wheat contracts since late 2005 has been widely discussed (e.g., Henriques, 2008).1 Convergence performance is summarized in Figure 1, depicting delivery location basis levels on the first delivery date of each contract for the three commodities over January or March 2000 through March 2009. Extended periods of lack of convergence since late 2005 are obvious, although variable over time and by commodity. Performance has been consistently weakest in wheat, with futures prices at times exceeding delivery location cash prices by $1.00/bu., a level of disconnect between cash and futures not previously experienced in grain markets.

description: The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has a number of agencies that are involved in collecting, analyzing, forecasting, and disseminating information about the production and consumption of the corn and soybean crops (Spilka, 1983; Vogel and Bange, 1999; Lusk, 2013). Market participants rely heavily on estimates and forecasts provided by these agencies in order to form price expectations and to make business decisions. In spite of on-going efforts to maintain the quality of information provided and the transparency of the methodology used, misunderstanding, concerns, or complaints about the information provided periodically arise (e.g., USDA/ESRP, 1985; Good and Irwin, 2011). More recently (since 2006) those concerns have centered on the accuracy of the quarterly estimates of corn inventories and to a lesser extent on the methodology and accuracy of early season yield forecasts (e.g., Polansek, 2010; Pleven and McGinty, 2011). It is in that context that this review of USDA forecasts and estimates for corn and soybeans was conducted.

description: Many successful battery electrodes are based on 2D-layered materials. We have studied aluminium-ion batteries using molybdenum dichalcogenides: \ce{MoS2}, \ce{MoSe2} and MoSSe as active cathode materials. The batteries showed clear discharge voltage plateaus in the ranges 1.6 - 1.4 V for \ce{MoS2} and \ce{MoSe2}, and 0.6 - 0.5 V for MoSSe. \ce{MoS2} and \ce{MoSe2} have similar crystal structures, interestingly we found that \ce{MoSe2} performed better than \ce{MoS2}. MoSSe exhibited a higher specific capacity over \ce{MoS2} and \ce{MoSe2}, but the energy density was lower than \ce{MoSe2} at a current rate of 40 mA g$^{-1}$. \ce{MoSe2} cells recorded a discharge capacity of $\sim$ 110 mAh g$^{-1}$ with an average potential in the range of 2.0 - 1.8 V and 1.5 - 0.8 V during discharge. The cells were stable at 100 mA g$^{-1}$ for over 200 cycles with 90\% coulombic efficiency.

description: We show that the correlated stochastic fluctuation of the friction coefficient can give rise to long-range directional motion of a particle undergoing Brownian random walk in a constant periodic energy potential landscape. The occurrence of this motion requires the presence of two additional independent bodies interacting with the particle via friction and via the energy potential, respectively, which can move relative to each other. Such three-body system generalizes the classical Brownian ratchet mechanism, which requires only two interacting bodies. In particular, we describe a simple two-level model of fluctuating-friction molecular motor that can be solved analytically. In our previous work [M.K., L.M and D.P. 2000 J. Nonlinear Opt. Phys. Mater. vol. 9, 157] this model has been first applied to understanding the fundamental mechanism of the photoinduced reorientation of dye-doped liquid crystals. Applications of the same idea to other fields such as molecular biology and nanotechnology can however be envisioned. As an example, in this paper we work out a model of the actomyosin system based on the fluctuating-friction mechanism.

description: We propose a method to tackle the problem of mapless collision-avoidance navigation where humans are present using 2D laser scans. Our proposed method uses ego-safety to measure collision from the robot's perspective while social-safety to measure the impact of our robot's actions on surrounding pedestrians. Specifically, the social-safety part predicts the intrusion impact of our robot's action into the interaction area with surrounding humans. We train the policy using reinforcement learning on a simple simulator and directly evaluate the learned policy in Gazebo and real robot tests. Experiments show the learned policy can be smoothly transferred without any fine tuning. We observe that our method demonstrates time-efficient path planning behavior with high success rate in mapless navigation tasks. Furthermore, we test our method in a navigation among dynamic crowds task considering both low and high volume traffic. Our learned policy demonstrates cooperative behavior that actively drives our robot into traffic flows while showing respect to nearby pedestrians.

description: Aujourd’hui couverte par un lotissement, la parcelle D 253 de la commune de Magalas a été occupée entre la fin du IIe siècle av. n. è. et le milieu du IVe siècle, aux abords immédiats d’un oppidum (VIe-Ier siècle av. n. è.) comptant parmi les plus importants de la zone nord-biterroise. Le site abrite un sanctuaire à partir de la fin du IIe siècle av. n. è. Durant la période augustéenne, jusque dans le courant du IIe siècle, les aménagements n’ont de cesse de faire l’objet de modifications et d’adjonctions architecturales, autant en remaniements du bâti proprement cultuel (péribole, temple, portique) que sur les aménagements profanes installés à son contact à partir du changement d’ère et voués à l’hébergement des pèlerins. Le devenir du sanctuaire nous échappe à partir du IIIe s. Les lieux sont fréquentés jusqu’au milieu du IVe siècle, mais il demeure impossible d’attribuer une date, même approximative, à l’abandon du lieu de culte. Les seuls indices disponibles concernent les deux établissements connexes ainsi qu’un atelier de potier qui vient s’installer à la lisière est du site et fonctionne durant les année 325-350.

description: Rapid political and economic changes are occurring in Eastern Europe. The political fermentation, grown out of economic difficulties, has resulted in spectacular, sudden changes in all the countries of the region. The agricultural changes in progress in Eastern Europe are much more profound than the reforms in past years. In fact, the formation of a new agricultural structure based on private ownership, real cooperation and a market economy has started. Today this process is still in the initial phase, but the crucial aspects of the transition are clearly identifiable.

description: We report a study of the Aharonov-Bohm effect, the oscillations of the resistance of a mesoscopic ring as a function of a perpendicular magnetic field, in a GaAs two-dimensional hole system with a strong spin-orbit interaction. The Fourier spectra of the oscillations reveal extra structure near the main peak whose frequency corresponds to the magnetic flux enclosed by the ring. A comparison of the experimental data with results of simulations demonstrates that the origin of the extra structure is the geometric (Berry) phase acquired by the carrier spin as it travels around the ring.

description: We investigate the dynamics of a two-level Andreev bound state system in a transmissive quantum point contact embedded in an rf-SQUID. Coherent coupling of the Andreev levels to the circulating supercurrent allows manipulation and read out of the level states. The two-level Hamiltonian for the Andreev levels is derived, and the effect of interaction with the quantum fluctuations of the induced flux is studied. We also consider an inductive coupling of qubits, and discuss the relevant SQUID parameters for qubit operation and read out.

description: We consider spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat space-times with a collisionless gas as matter model. Many properties of the resulting Vlasov-Einstein system are not yet accessible by purely analytical means. We present a discretized version of this system which is suitable for numerical implementation and is based on the particle-in-cell technique. Convergence of the resulting approximate solutions to the exact solution is proven and error bounds are provided.

The linearly damped nonlinear Schrödinger equation with localized driving: spatiotemporal decay estimates and the emergence of extreme wave events

description: We prove spatiotemporal algebraically decaying estimates for the density of the solutions of the linearly damped nonlinear Schrödinger equation with localized driving, when supplemented with vanishing boundary conditions. Their derivation is made via a scheme, which incorporates suitable weighted Sobolev spaces and a time-weighted energy method. Numerical simulations examining the dynamics (in the presence of physically relevant examples of driver types and driving amplitude/linear loss regimes), showcase that the suggested decaying rates, are proved relevant in describing the transient dynamics of the solutions, prior their decay: they support the emergence of waveforms possessing an algebraic space-time localization (reminiscent of the Peregrine soliton) as first events of the dynamics, but also effectively capture the space-time asymptotics of the numerical solutions.

description: We study the problem of learning manipulation skills from human demonstration video by inferring the association relationships between geometric features. Motivation for this work stems from the observation that humans perform eye-hand coordination tasks by using geometric primitives to define a task while a geometric control error drives the task through execution. We propose a graph based kernel regression method to directly infer the underlying association constraints from human demonstration video using Incremental Maximum Entropy Inverse Reinforcement Learning (InMaxEnt IRL). The learned skill inference provides human readable task definition and outputs control errors that can be directly plugged into traditional controllers. Our method removes the need for tedious feature selection and robust feature trackers required in traditional approaches (e.g. feature-based visual servoing). Experiments show our method infers correct geometric associations even with only one human demonstration video and can generalize well under variance.

description: To assess the oncologic outcomes of the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients in challenging locations (CLs) underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (US-PMWA) and the efficacy and safety of the advanced assistive technology (AAT). Data for 489 treatment-naïve patients with HCC who met Milan criteria and subsequently underwent US-PMWA were reviewed from March 2012 to November 2016. According to the distance (<5 mm) between the tumor and surrounding structures, the patients were divided into two groups: a CL group and a non-CL group. Regarding MWA assisted by AAT, the CL group was further subdivided into two groups: an AAT group and a non-AAT group. Technique effectiveness, complications and survival outcomes (i.e., overall survival [OS] and recurrence-free survival [RFS]) were compared between CL and non-CL groups. Local tumor progression (LTP) was compared between AAT and non-AAT groups. Technique effectiveness and complications in the CL group were similar to those in the non-CL group (p = .873 and p = .828, respectively). The OS and RFS in six types of CL groups were comparable with those in non-CL group (p = .131–.117) including adjacent vital structures, gallbladder, hepatic hilar regions, major vessels, diaphragm and capsule, respectively. The LTP rates in the AAT group were significantly higher than those in the non-AAT group (p = .001). US-PMWA assisted by AAT to treat HCC lesions in CLs was safe and effective; also, this technique had comparable success and survival outcomes with those of patients in non-CL.
Reevaluating Cosmic Expansion: A Cyclical Cosmology Without Dark Energy
Creators: name: Fosker, Nigel
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This paper proposes a reevaluation of cosmic expansion, suggesting that Redshift is primarily the artefact of stacked Doppler shifts, rather than space time expansion. By reconsidering the role of gravitational interactions and vacuum states, the model outlines a cyclical cosmology that eliminates the need for dark energy. Key predictions include Redshift anisotropies, a cyclic origin for the cosmic microwave background, and a collapse-triggered mechanism for cosmic renewal. This work invites further mathematical and observational validation.

description: The classical Penrose inequality specifies a lower bound on the total mass in terms of the area of certain trapped surfaces. This fails at the semiclassical level. We conjecture a Quantum Penrose Inequality: the mass at spatial infinity is lower-bounded by a function of the generalized entropy of the lightsheet of appropriate quantum trapped surfaces. This is the first relation between quantum information in quantum gravity, and the total energy.

description: We study a stochastic multiplicative system composed of finite asynchronous elements to describe the wealth evolution in financial markets. We find that the wealth fluctuations or returns of this system can be described by a walk with correlated step sizes obeying truncated Levy-like distribution, and the cross-correlation between relative updated wealths is the origin of the nontrivial properties of returns, including the power law distribution with exponent outside the stable Levy regime and the long-range persistence of volatility correlations.
