description: Using aggregated flexibility from distributed small-scale power devices is an extensively discussed approach to meet the challenges in modern and increasingly stochastic energy systems. It is crucial to be able to model and map the flexibility of the respective power devices in a unified form to increase the value of the cumulative flexibility from different small-scale power devices by aggregation. In order to identify the most suitable approach for unified flexibility modeling we present a framework to evaluate and compare the advantages and disadvantages of already existing modeling approaches in different levels of detail. As an introduction to flexibility modeling and as a basis for the evaluation process we initially provide a comprehensive overview of the broad range of flexibility models described in scientific literature. Subsequently, five selected modeling approaches allowing the generation of a unified flexibility representation for different power devices are presented in detail. By using an evaluation metric we assess the suitability of the selected approaches for unified flexibility modeling and their applicability. To allow a more detailed performance analysis, the best evaluated models are implemented and simulations with different small-scale devices are performed. The results shown in this paper highlight the heterogeneity of modeling concepts deriving from the various interpretations of flexibility in scientific literature. Due to the varying complexity of the modeling approaches, different flexibility potentials are identified, necessitating a combination of approaches to capture the entire spectrum of the flexibility of different small-scale power devices. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that a complex model does not necessarily lead to the discovery of higher flexibility potentials, and recommendations are given on how to choose an appropriate model. © 2022, The Author(s).

description: In this paper we introduce novel algorithmic strategies for effciently playing two-player games in which the players have different or identical player roles. In the case of identical roles, the players compete for the same objective (that of winning the game). The case with different player roles assumes that one of the players asks questions in order to identify a secret pattern and the other one answers them. The purpose of the first player is to ask as few questions as possible (or that the questions and their number satisfy some previously known constraints) and the purpose of the secret player is to answer the questions in a way that will maximize the number of questions asked by the first player (or in a way which forces the first player to break the constraints of the game). We consider both previously known games (or extensions of theirs) and new types of games, introduced in this paper.
$0 ν\, ββ$ decay process in left-right symmetric models without scalar Bidoublet

description: We present an alternative formulation of the left-right symmetric theory where the scalar sector consists of two Higgs doublets which differs from the standard version of the left-right model that makes use of $L-$ and $R-$ Higgs triplets and a Higgs bi-doublet. The basic idea is to consider few extra charged iso-singlet fields and the fermion masses can be realized by integrating out these heavy isosinglet fields. We also give a detailed discussion on neutrinoless double beta decay in this particular left-right symmetric theory where the right-handed Majorana neutrino can be of MeV range. With this right-handed Majorana mass around MeV scale, the contribution to neutrinoless double beta decay coming from the right-handed current can be comparable with the contributions coming from the standard left-handed sector only if the right-handed gauge boson mass is around 5 TeV, and with this operative scale of $W_R$ around few TeV, it is possible to probe at LHC. We have briefly commented on cosmological constraints coming from the big-bang nucleosynthesis and Universe cosmology to the right-handed neutrinos involved in this discussion.

description: Background: The potential of auditory feedback for motor learning in the rehabilitation of various diseases has become apparent in recent years. However, since the volume of auditory feedback has played a minor role so far and its influence has hardly been considered, we investigate the volume effect of auditory feedback on gait pattern and gait direction and its interaction with pitch. Methods: Thirty-two healthy young participants were randomly divided into two groups: Group 1 (n = 16) received a high pitch (150-250 Hz) auditory feedback; group 2 (n = 16) received a lower pitch (95-112 Hz) auditory feedback. The feedback consisted of a real-time sonification of the right and left foot ground contact. After an initial condition (no auditory feedback and full vision), both groups realized a 30-minute habituation period followed by a 30-minute asymmetry period. At any condition, the participants were asked to walk blindfolded and with auditory feedback towards a target at 15 m distance and were stopped 5 m before the target. Three different volume conditions were applied in random order during the habituation period: loud, normal, and quiet. In the subsequent asymmetry period, the three volume conditions baseline, right quiet and left quiet were applied in random order. Results: In the habituation phase, the step width from the loud to the quiet condition showed a significant interaction of volume*pitch with a decrease at high pitch (group 1) and an increase at lower pitch (group 2) (group 1: loud 1.02 ± 0.310, quiet 0.98 ± 0.301; group 2: loud 0.95 ± 0.229, quiet 1.11 ± 0.298). In the asymmetry period, a significantly increased ground contact time on the side with reduced volume could be found (right quiet: left foot 0.988 ± 0.033, right foot 1.003 ± 0.040, left quiet: left foot 1.004 ± 0.036, right foot 1.002 ± 0.033). Conclusions: Our results suggest that modifying the volume of auditory feedback can be an effective way to improve gait symmetry. This could facilitate gait therapy and rehabilitation of hemiparetic and arthroplasty patients, in particular if gait improvement based on verbal corrections and conscious motor control is limited. © 2022, The Author(s).

description: Two recent experiments [I. P. Radu et al., Science 320, 899 (2008) and X. Lin et al., Phys. Rev. B 85, 165321 (2012)] measured the temperature and voltage dependence of the quasiparticle tunneling through a quantum point contact in the ν= 5/2 quantum Hall liquid. The results led to conflicting conclusions about the nature of the quantum Hall state. In this paper, we show that the conflict can be resolved by recognizing different geometries of the devices in the experiments. We argue that in some of those geometries there is significant unscreened electrostatic interaction between the segments of the quantum Hall edge on the opposite sides of the point contact. Coulomb interaction affects the tunneling current. We compare experimental results with theoretical predictions for the Pfaffian, SU(2)_2, 331 and K=8 states and their particle-hole conjugates. After Coulomb corrections are taken into account, measurements in all geometries agree with the spin-polarized and spin-unpolarized Halperin 331 states.

description: State distillation is the process of taking a number of imperfect copies of a particular quantum state and producing fewer better copies. Until recently, the lowest overhead method of distilling states |A>=(|0>+e^{iπ/4}|1>)/\sqrt{2} produced a single improved |A> state given 15 input copies. New block code state distillation methods can produce k improved |A> states given 3k+8 input copies, potentially significantly reducing the overhead associated with state distillation. We construct an explicit surface code implementation of block code state distillation and quantitatively compare the overhead of this approach to the old. We find that, using the best available techniques, for parameters of practical interest, block code state distillation does not always lead to lower overhead, and, when it does, the overhead reduction is typically less than a factor of three.

description: The study of azimuthal correlations in particle production at forward rapidities in proton-nucleus collisions provides direct information about high gluon density effects, like gluon saturation, in the nuclear wavefunction. In the kinematical conditions for proton-lead collisions at the LHC, the forward di-hadron production is dominated by partonic processes in which a gluon from the proton splits into a pair of gluons, while undergoing multiple scattering off the dense gluon system in the nucleus. We compute the corresponding cross-section using the Colour Glass Condensate effective theory, which enables us to include the effects of multiple scattering and gluon saturation in the leading logarithmic approximation at high energy. This opens the way towards systematic studies of angular correlations in two-gluon production, similar to previous studies for quark-gluon production in the literature. We consider in more detail two special kinematical limits: the "back-to-back correlation limit", where the transverse momenta of the produced gluons are much larger than the nuclear saturation momentum, and the "double parton scattering limit", where the two gluons are produced by a nearly collinear splitting occurring prior to the collision. We argue that saturation effects remain important even for relatively high transverse momenta (i.e. for nearly back-to-back configurations), leading to geometric scaling in the azimuthal distribution.

description: We introduce a geometric transition between two homogeneous three-dimensional geometries: hyperbolic geometry and anti de Sitter (AdS) geometry. Given a path of three-dimensional hyperbolic structures that collapse down onto a hyperbolic plane, we describe a method for constructing a natural continuation of this path into AdS structures. In particular, when hyperbolic cone manifolds collapse, the AdS manifolds generated on the "other side" of the transition have tachyon singularities. The method involves the study of a new transitional geometry called half-pipe geometry. We demonstrate these methods in the case when the manifold is the unit tangent bundle of the (2,m,m) triangle orbifold for m at least 5.

At present, first two couplers of coaxial design have been fabricated and accomplished high power test at IHEP. The test results indicated that couplers of this design are qualified to deliver 10kW RF power in continuous travelling wave mode. This paper described the coupler's room temperature test procedures and results, discussed the original high power test terminated due to serious out-gassing and after some modifications. In the final test, the couplers smoothly exceeded the design power level.

description: The quantization of non-Abelian gauge theories is known to be plagued by Gribov copies. Typical examples are the copies related to zero modes of the Faddeev-Popov operator, which give rise to singularities in the ghost propagator. In this work we present an exact and compact expression for the ghost propagator as a function of external gauge fields, in SU(N) Yang-Mills theory in the Landau gauge. It is shown, to all orders, that the condition for the ghost propagator not to have a pole, the so-called Gribov's no-pole condition, can be implemented by demanding a nonvanishing expectation value for a functional of the gauge fields that turns out to be Zwanziger's horizon function. The action allowing to implement this condition is the Gribov-Zwanziger action. This establishes in a precise way the equivalence between Gribov's no-pole condition and Zwanziger's horizon condition.

description: The magneto-optical longitudinal, transverse Hall and circularly-polarized response of silicene and other materials described by a Kane-Mele Hamiltonian are calculated. Particular attention is paid to the effects of an external electric field and finite charge doping. The energy of interband transitions can be tuned by varying the electric field. The onset frequency of the absorptive peaks moves differently between the topological insulator and band insulator regimes. This may be used to verify experimentally the existence of the two insulating phases as well as provide a measure of the spin-orbit band gap. The zeroth Landau level splits between four spin and valley distinct energies resulting in valley-spin-polarized levels in the density of states. With charge doping, transitions between these levels allow for a spin- and valley-polarized response in the conductivity whereby charge carriers of specific spin and valley index can be isolated by tuning the incident photon frequency. Increasing the chemical potential is shown to redistribute spectral weight from interband transitions to a strong low-energy intraband response. For large chemical potential, this intraband feature is associated with the semiclassical cyclotron resonance frequency which is shown to linearly increase with magnetic field.

Tandis que le C. hova se rattache plus au C. maculatus i. sp., j'ai sous les yeux des variétés voisines qui se rapprochent plus du C. Radamae, var. mixtellus, dont elles ont la taille. Elles s'en distinguent par les taches abdominales claires un peu plus diffuses et surtout plus étroites, plus atténuées postérieurement, par leurs tibias (jaunâtres) un peu aplatis, mais pas du tout prismatiques (cylindriques chez le C. mixtellus), par une pilosité un peu plus abondante (joues assez poilues) et surtout par une rangée de poils très fins et très obliques à la face interne de chaque tibia. La couleur est du reste cel le du C. mixtellus, mais souvent un peu plus rougeâtre. Chez la [[worker]] minor, la tête est plus large, moins rétrécie derrière que celle du C. hova, la couleur d'un jaune assez rougeâtre, avec l'abdomen comme chez la [[worker]] major. On peut définir cette variété sous le nom de C. Radamae hovoides ou de C. hova Radamae œ un dédale à n'en plus finir, car diverses [[queen]] que j'ai eues sous les yeux et qui proviennent de diverses parties de l'ile présentent encore d'autres variétés de pilosité, de pubescence, de taille et de couleur.
La [[queen]] de cette dernière variété est presque entièrement et diffusément brunâtre avec les pattes plus claires (la tête manque). Le [[male]] (longueur 8,3 mill.) a la tête, le thorax, les pattes et les antennes rougeâtres, l'abdomen brunâtre, les ailes assez enfumées de brunâtre, à nervures brunes, et les tibias à petits poils obliques de tous côtés.

description: We perform a controlled experiment to study the welfare effects of competition in a strategic communication environment. Two equally informed senders with conflicting interests can misreport information at a cost. We compare a treatment where only one sender communicates to a treatment where both senders privately communicate with a decision-maker. Data show that competition between senders does not increase the amount of information decision-makers obtain. We find evidence of under-communication, as the information transmitted is lower than what theory predicts in the most informative equilibrium. Senders are worse off under competition because their relative gains from persuasion are more than offset by their expenditures in misreporting costs. As a result, competition between senders reduces the total welfare.

description: Fuzzy systems may be considered as knowledge-based systems that incorporates human knowledge into their knowledge base through fuzzy rules and fuzzy membership functions. The intent of this study is to present a fuzzy knowledge integration framework using a Novel Evolutionary Strategy (NES), which can simultaneously integrate multiple fuzzy rule sets and their membership function sets. The proposed approach consists of two phases: fuzzy knowledge encoding and fuzzy knowledge integration. Four application domains, the hepatitis diagnosis, the sugarcane breeding prediction, Iris plants classification, and Tic-tac-toe endgame were used to show the performance ofthe proposed knowledge approach. Results show that the fuzzy knowledge base derived using our approach performs better than Genetic Algorithm based approach.

description: Photons can gravitationally scatter off a cosmic string loop and gain or lose energy. We consider the spectral distortion induced by cosmic string loops placed in an ambient thermal bath of photons. The fractional deviation from a thermal spectrum caused by cosmic strings is estimated to scale as (G_N μ)^2 z^2, where G_N is Newton's constant, $μ$ is the string tension, and z is the cosmological redshift after which spectral distortions can survive. This effect is large enough to potentially be of observational interest.

description: In recent years, differential equations have become the method of choice to compute multi-loop Feynman integrals. Whenever they can be cast into canonical form, their solution in terms of special functions is straightforward. Recently, progress has been made in understanding the precise canonical form for Feynman integrals involving elliptic polylogarithms. In this article, we make use of an algorithmic approach that proves powerful to find canonical forms for these cases. To illustrate the method, we reproduce several known canonical forms from the literature and present examples where a canonical form is deduced for the first time. Together with this article, we also release an update for INITIAL, a publicly available Mathematica implementation of the algorithm.

It is shown that the increment of shuttle instability is a nonmonotonic function of the driving voltage. The interplay of two oppositely acting effects - vibron-assisted electron tunneling and polaronic blockade - results in oscillations of the increment on the energy scale of vibron energy.

description: Because of the nonlocal properties of fractional operators, higher order schemes play more important role in discretizing fractional derivatives than classical ones. The striking feature is that higher order schemes of fractional derivatives can keep the same computation cost with first-order schemes but greatly improve the accuracy. Nowadays, there are already two types of second order discretization schemes for space fractional derivatives: the first type is given and discussed in [Sousa & Li, arXiv:1109.2345; Chen & Deng, arXiv:1304.3788; Chen et al., Appl. Numer. Math., 70, 22-41]; and the second type is a class of schemes presented in [Tian et al., arXiv:1201.5949]. The core object of this paper is to derive a class of fourth order approximations, called the weighted and shifted Lubich difference (WSLD) operators, for space fractional derivatives. Then we use the derived schemes to solve the space fractional diffusion equation with variable coefficients in one-dimensional and two-dimensional cases. And the unconditional stability and the convergence with the global truncation error $\mathcal{O}(τ^2+h^4)$ are theoretically proved and numerically verified.

description: We propose a charge pump which converts solar energy into DC electricity. It is based on cyclic changes in the spontaneous electric polarization of a photoferroelectric material, which allows a transfer of charge from a low to a high voltage. To estimate the power efficiency we use a photoferroelectric liquid crystal as the working substance. For a specific choice of material, an efficiency of $2\%$ is obtained.

description: Based on the recently introduced homogenization theory developed in [Phys. Rev. B 84, 075153 (2011)], we propose a generalized retrieval method that allows extracting physically meaningful bulk effective parameters from conventional scattering measurements of periodic metamaterial samples composed of subwavelength inclusions. We show that, compared to conventional approaches, our method is able to capture the anomalous physics in the wave interaction with resonant metamaterials and return physically meaningful homogenized parameters that retain local properties in the long-wavelength limit. As a byproduct, we are also able to retrieve the polarizabilities of the constituent inclusions, which are shown to satisfy expected dispersion properties for passive inclusions, in contrast with conventional retrieval approaches.

description: Inspired by recent congruences by Andersen with varying powers of 2 in the modulus for partition related functions, we extend the modulo 32760 congruences of the first author for the function spt(n). We show that a normalized form of the generating function of spt(n) is an eigenform modulo 32 for the Hecke operators T(l^2) for primes l >= 5 with l congruent to 1, 11, 17, 19 (mod 24), and an eigenform modulo 16 for l congruent to? 13, 23 (mod 24).

description: We study the top quark portal dominated dark matter interactions, and its implications for the gamma ray line searches. In this picture, the dark matter interactions with photons and gluons are loop induced by the axial anomaly of the top quark current. We show there can be a natural suppression of the tree-level annihilation of dark matter, and the photon channel in turn has a substantial rate when the main annihilation proceeds into gluons. We observe a competition between the indirect detection of gamma ray line and the search with monojet plus missing energy events at LHC, and the 7 TeV data already set an upper bound of ~ 10^{-28} cm^3/s on the photonic annihilation cross section. This upper limit is compatible with a thermal WIMP scenario.

description: We review the current status of point contact spectroscopy on the iron based superconductors, focusing on their normal state. Point contact spectroscopy is generally used to study superconductors via Andreev reflection, but in recent years it has also proved to be a useful bulk probe of strongly correlated electron systems. Point contact spectroscopy picks up a conductance enhancement in the normal state, above the structural phase transition, of certain iron based compounds. These include Co doped $\rm{BaFe_2As_2}$, $\rm{SrFe_2As_2}$, $\rm{Fe_{1+y}Te}$ and F doped $\rm{SmFeAsO}$ and $\rm{LaFeAsO}$. Two materials which do not show this conductance enhancement are $\rm{CaFe_2As_2}$ and K doped $\rm{BaFe_2As_2}$. This conductance enhancement is thought to be tied to orbital fluctuations. Orbital fluctuations in the normal state of these compounds increases the single particle density of states at the Fermi level, indicating that PCS is sensitive to this excess density of states. The enhancement is only observed at those temperatures and dopings where an in-plane resisitve anisotropy in the detwinned compounds is known to occur. Thus point contact spectroscopy provides strong indications of electronic nematicity in such materials. We also present diagnostics on how to judge if a junction is impacted by joule heating or not. We conclude with the outstanding challenges in the field and the new experiments that need to be carried out.

description: Computing based on biochemical processes is a newest rapidly developing field of unconventional information and signal processing. In this paper we present results of our research in the field of biochemical computing and summarize the obtained numerical and experimental data for implementations of the standard two-input OR and AND gates with double-sigmoid shape of the output signal. This form of response was obtained as a function of the two inputs in each of the realized biochemical systems. The enzymatic gate processes in the first system were activated with two chemical inputs and resulted in optically detected chromogen oxidation, which happens when either one or both of the inputs are present. In this case, the biochemical system is functioning as the OR gate. We demonstrate that the addition of a "filtering" biocatalytic process leads to a considerable reduction of the noise transmission factor and the resulting gate response has sigmoid shape in both inputs. The second system was developed for functioning as an AND gate, where the output signal was activated only by a simultaneous action of two enzymatic biomarkers. This response can be used as an indicator of liver damage, but only if both of these of the inputs are present at their elevated, pathophysiological values of concentrations. A kinetic numerical model was developed and used to estimate the range of parameters for which the experimentally realized logic gate is close to optimal. We also analyzed the system to evaluate its noise-handling properties.

description: We formulate a notion of abstract loop equations, and show that their solution is provided by a topological recursion under some assumptions, in particular the result takes a universal form. The Schwinger-Dyson equation of the one and two hermitian matrix models, and of the O(n) model appear as special cases. We study applications to repulsive particles systems, and explain how our notion of loop equations are related to Virasoro constraints. Then, as a special case, we study in detail applications to enumeration problems in a general class of non-intersecting loop models on the random lattice of all topologies, to SU(N) Chern-Simons invariants of torus knots in the large N expansion. We also mention an application to Liouville theory on surfaces of positive genus.

description: We consider the Landau Hamiltonian perturbed by a long-range electric potential $V$. The spectrum of the perturbed operator consists of eigenvalue clusters which accumulate to the Landau levels. First, we obtain an estimate of the rate of the shrinking of these clusters to the Landau levels as the number of the cluster $q$ tends to infinity. Further, we assume that there exists an appropriate $\V$, homogeneous of order $-ρ$ with $ρ\in (0,1)$, such that $V(x) = \V(x) + O(|x|^{-ρ- ε})$, $ε> 0$, as $|x| \to \infty$, and investigate the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues within a given cluster, as $q \to \infty$. We obtain an explicit description of the asymptotic density of the eigenvalues in terms of the mean-value transform of $\V$.

description: Recent advances in quantum optics and atomic physics allow for an unprecedented level of control over light-matter interactions, which can be exploited to investigate new physical phenomena. In this work we are interested in the role played by the topology of quantum networks describing coupled optical cavities and local atomic degrees of freedom. In particular, using a mean-field approximation, we study the phase diagram of the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model on complex networks topologies, and we characterize the transition between a Mott-like phase of localized polaritons and a superfluid phase. We found that, for complex topologies, the phase diagram is non-trivial and well defined in the thermodynamic limit only if the hopping coefficient scales like the inverse of the maximal eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of the network. Furthermore we provide numerical evidences that, for some complex network topologies, this scaling implies an asymptotically vanishing hopping coefficient in the limit of large network sizes. The latter result suggests the interesting possibility of observing quantum phase transitions of light on complex quantum networks even with very small couplings between the optical cavities.
