description: Entropy modeling is a key component for high-performance image compression algorithms. Recent developments in autoregressive context modeling helped learning-based methods to surpass their classical counterparts. However, the performance of those models can be further improved due to the underexploited spatio-channel dependencies in latent space, and the suboptimal implementation of context adaptivity. Inspired by the adaptive characteristics of the transformers, we propose a transformer-based context model, named Contextformer, which generalizes the de facto standard attention mechanism to spatio-channel attention. We replace the context model of a modern compression framework with the Contextformer and test it on the widely used Kodak, CLIC2020, and Tecnick image datasets. Our experimental results show that the proposed model provides up to 11% rate savings compared to the standard Versatile Video Coding (VVC) Test Model (VTM) 16.2, and outperforms various learning-based models in terms of PSNR and MS-SSIM.

description: Although gamma ray showers are muon-poor, they still produce a number of muons sufficient to make the sources observed by GeV and TeV telescopes observable also in muons. For sources with hard gamma ray spectra there is a relative `enhancement' of muons from gamma ray primaries as compared to that from nucleon primaries. All shower gamma rays above the photoproduction threshold contribute to the number of muons $N_μ$, which is thus proportional to the primary gamma ray energy. With gamma ray energy 50 times higher than the muon energy and a probability of muon production by the gammas of about 1\%, muon detectors can match the detection efficiency of a GeV satellite detector if their effective area is larger by $10^4$. The muons must have enough energy for sufficiently accurate reconstruction of their direction for doing astronomy. These conditions are satisfied by relatively shallow neutrino detectors such as AMANDA and Lake Baikal and by gamma ray detectors like MILAGRO. TeV muons from gamma ray primaries, on the other hand, are rare because they are only produced by higher energy gamma rays whose flux is suppressed by the decreasing flux at the source and by absorption on interstellar light. We show that there is a window of opportunity for muon astronomy with the AMANDA, Lake Baikal and MILAGRO detectors.

description: Interference of two beams produced at separate biphoton sources was first observed more than two decades ago. The phenomenon, often called "induced coherence without induced emission", has recently gained attention after its applications to imaging, spectroscopy, and measuring biphoton correlations have been discovered. The sources used in the corresponding experiments are nonlinear crystals pumped by laser light. The use of a laser pump makes the occurrence of induced (stimulated) emission unavoidable and the effect of stimulated emission can be observed in the joint detection rate of the two beams. This fact raises the question whether the stimulated emission also lays a role in inducing the coherence. Here we investigate a case in which the crystals are pumped with a single-photon Fock state. We find that coherence is induced even though the possibility of stimulated emission is now fully ruled out. Furthermore, the joint detection rate of the two beams becomes ideally zero and does no longer change with the pump power. We illustrate our results by numerical simulations and by comparisons with experimental findings. Our results rule out any classical or semi-classical explanation of the phenomenon and also imply that similar experiments can be performed with fermions, for which stimulated emission is strictly forbidden.

description: We construct realistic supergravity models where supersymmetry breaking arises from the $D$-terms of an anomalous $U(1)$ gauge symmetry broken at the Planck scale. The model has the attractive feature that the gaugino masses, the $A$ and $B$ terms and the mass splittings between the like-charged squarks of the first two generations compared to their average masses are all suppressed. As a result, the electric dipole moment of the neutron as well as the flavor changing neutral current effects are predicted to be naturally small. These models predict naturally the expected value of the $μ$-term and also have the potential to qualitatively explain the observed mass hierarchy among quarks and leptons.

description: Microlensing of extragalactic sources, in particular the probability of significant amplifications, is a potentially powerful probe of the abundance of compact objects outside the halo of the Milky Way. Accurate experimental constraints require an equally accurate theoretical model for the amplification statistics produced by such a population. In this article, we argue that the simplest (strongest-lens) model does not meet this demanding requirement. We thus propose an elaborate practical modelling scheme for extragalactic microlensing. We derive from first principles an expression for the amplification probability that consistently allows for: (i) the coupling between microlenses; (ii) realistic perturbations from the cosmic large-scale structure; (iii) extended-source corrections. An important conclusion is that the external shear applied on the dominant microlens, both by the other lenses and by the large-scale structure, is practically negligible. Yet, the predictions of our approach can still differ by a factor of a few with respect to existing models of the literature. Updated constraints on the abundance of compact objects accounting for such discrepancies may be required.

An Efficient Algorithm for the Multicomponent Compressible Navier-Stokes Equations in Low- and High-Mach Number Regimes

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Computational Physics (physics.comp-ph)

description: The goal of this study is to develop an efficient numerical algorithm applicable to a wide range of compressible multicomponent flows. Although many highly efficient algorithms have been proposed for simulating each type of the flows, the construction of a universal solver is known to be challenging. Extreme cases, such as incompressible and highly compressible flows, or inviscid and highly viscous flows, require different numerical treatments in order to maintain the efficiency, stability, and accuracy of the method. Linearized block implicit (LBI) factored schemes are known to provide an efficient way of solving the compressible Navier-Stokes equations implicitly, allowing us to avoid stability restrictions at low Mach number and high viscosity. However, the methods' splitting error has been shown to grow and dominate physical fluxes as the Mach number goes to zero. In this paper, a splitting error reduction technique is proposed to solve the issue. A novel finite element shock-capturing algorithm, proposed by Guermond and Popov, is reformulated in terms of finite differences, extended to the stiffened gas equation of state (SG EOS) and combined with the LBI factored scheme to stabilize the method around flow discontinuities at high Mach numbers. A novel stabilization term is proposed for low Mach number applications. The resulting algorithm is shown to be efficient in both low and high Mach number regimes. The algorithm is extended to the multicomponent case using an interface capturing strategy with surface tension as a continuous surface force. Numerical tests are presented to verify the performance and stability properties for a wide range of flows.

description: In teleparallel geometries, symmetries are represented by affine frame symmetries which constrain both the (co)frame basis and the spin-connection (which are the primary geometric objects). In this paper we shall study teleparallel geometries with a single affine symmetry, utilizing the locally Lorentz covariant approach and adopting a complex null gauge. We first introduce an algorithm to study geometries with an affine frame symmetry, which consists of choosing coordinates adapted to the symmetry, constructing a canonical frame, and solving the equations describing the symmetry. %for the spin connection (to determine the six real Lorentz functions. All of the constraints on the geometry are determined in the case of a single affine symmetry, but there are additional constraints arising from the field equations for a given theory of teleparallel gravity. In particular, we find that in $f(T)$ teleparallel gravity there will be severe constraints on the geometry arising from the antisymmetric part of the field equations.

Stellar Turbulent Convection: A Selfconsistent Model

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1996

description: We present a selfconsistent model for stellar turbulent convection which is similar in spirit to the CM model (Canuto \& Mazzitelli 1991) since it accounts for the full spectrum of the turbulent eddies rather than only one eddy, as done in the mixing length theory (MLT). The model differs from the CM model in the treatment of the rate of energy input $n_s(k)$ from the source that generates the turbulence. In the present model, $n_s(k)$ is controlled by both the {\it source} and {\it the turbulence} it ultimately generates, thus ensuring a selfconsistent modeling of the turbulence. This improves the CM model in which $n_s(k)$ was taken to be equal to the growth rate of the {\it linear} unstable convective modes. However, since the formulation of a selfconsistent treatment is far from simple, we were forced to use a representation of the nonlinear interactions less complete than the one in the CM model. The ensuing equations were solved numerically for a wide range of convective efficiencies. The results are the convective flux, the mean square turbulent velocity, the root mean squared turbulent pressure and the turbulent viscosity. We implemented the model in the ATON stellar structure code and computed the evolution of a solar model. The results are generally similar to those of the CM model and thus quite different from the MLT. The present model requires a smaller overshoot into the upper radiative zone than does the CM model, in accord with recent empirical estimates. Application to POP II stars and comparison with the very metal-poor globular cluster M68 yields an age in the range $11÷12$ Gyr. This is somewhat younger than the CM age, which in turn is younger than the corresponding MLT age, a result of possible cosmological interest.

description: We describe a new algorithm for vertex cover with runtime $O^*(1.25284^k)$, where $k$ is the size of the desired solution and $O^*$ hides polynomial factors in the input size. This improves over previous runtime of $O^*(1.2738^k)$ due to Chen, Kanj, & Xia (2010) standing for more than a decade. The key to our algorithm is to use a potential function which simultaneously tracks $k$ as well as the optimal value $λ$ of the vertex cover LP relaxation. This approach also allows us to make use of prior algorithms for Maximum Independent Set in bounded-degree graphs and Above-Guarantee Vertex Cover.
 The main step in the algorithm is to branch on high-degree vertices, while ensuring that both $k$ and $μ= k - λ$ are decreased at each step. There can be local obstructions in the graph that prevent $μ$ from decreasing in this process; we develop a number of novel branching steps to handle these situations.

The necessary shaping of the incident wave is achieved in situ using phase and amplitude regulated microwave antennas. Our experimental findings pave the way for establishing spatially confined communication channels that avoid possible intruders or obstacles in wave-based communication systems.

description: As robots are expected to get more involved in people's everyday lives, frameworks that enable intuitive user interfaces are in demand. Hand gesture recognition systems provide a natural way of communication and, thus, are an integral part of seamless Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). Recent years have witnessed an immense evolution of computational models powered by deep learning. However, state-of-the-art models fall short in expanding across different gesture domains, such as emblems and co-speech. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid hand gesture recognition system. Our architecture enables learning both static and dynamic gestures: by capturing a so-called "snapshot" of the gesture performance at its peak, we integrate the hand pose along with the dynamic movement. Moreover, we present a method for analyzing the motion profile of a gesture to uncover its dynamic characteristics and which allows regulating a static channel based on the amount of motion. Our evaluation demonstrates the superiority of our approach on two gesture benchmarks compared to a CNNLSTM baseline. We also provide an analysis on a gesture class basis that unveils the potential of our Snapture architecture for performance improvements. Thanks to its modular implementation, our framework allows the integration of other multimodal data like facial expressions and head tracking, which are important cues in HRI scenarios, into one architecture. Thus, our work contributes both to gesture recognition research and machine learning applications for non-verbal communication with robots.

description: Locally Optimal Block Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (LOBPCG) is demonstrated to efficiently solve eigenvalue problems for graph Laplacians that appear in spectral clustering. For static graph partitioning, 10-20 iterations of LOBPCG without preconditioning result in ~10x error reduction, enough to achieve 100% correctness for all Challenge datasets with known truth partitions, e.g., for graphs with 5K/.1M (50K/1M) Vertices/Edges in 2 (7) seconds, compared to over 5,000 (30,000) seconds needed by the baseline Python code. Our Python code 100% correctly determines 98 (160) clusters from the Challenge static graphs with 0.5M (2M) vertices in 270 (1,700) seconds using 10GB (50GB) of memory. Our single-precision MATLAB code calculates the same clusters at half time and memory. For streaming graph partitioning, LOBPCG is initiated with approximate eigenvectors of the graph Laplacian already computed for the previous graph, in many cases reducing 2-3 times the number of required LOBPCG iterations, compared to the static case. Our spectral clustering is generic, i.e. assuming nothing specific of the block model or streaming, used to generate the graphs for the Challenge, in contrast to the base code. Nevertheless, in 10-stage streaming comparison with the base code for the 5K graph, the quality of our clusters is similar or better starting at stage 4 (7) for emerging edging (snowballing) streaming, while the computations are over 100-1000 faster.

subject: 530 Physik

description: The recent discovery of the intrinsic supercurrent diode effect, and its prompt observation in a rich variety of systems, has shown that non-reciprocal supercurrents naturally emerge when both space-inversion and time-inversion symmetries are broken. In Josephson junctions, non-reciprocal supercurrent can be conveniently described in terms of spin-split Andreev states. Here we demonstrate a sign reversal of the Josephson inductance magnetochiral anisotropy, a manifestation of the supercurrent diode effect. The asymmetry of the Josephson inductance as a function of the supercurrent allows us to probe the current–phase relation near equilibrium, and to probe jumps in the junction ground state. Using a minimal theoretical model, we can then link the sign reversal of the inductance magnetochiral anisotropy to the so-called 0−π-like transition, a predicted but still elusive feature of multichannel junctions. Our results demonstrate the potential of inductance measurements as sensitive probes of the fundamental properties of unconventional Josephson junctions.

The formulae are presented as well as the discussion of the interralation between these two contributions and the Ingelman- Schlein and coherent diffraction mechanisms. The main precdition is that the coherent diffraction mechanism dominates at least at the Tevatron Energies, giving the unique possibility to study it experimentally.

description: Spatial-mode demultiplexing (SPADE) has recently been adopted to measure the separation in the transverse plane between two incoherent point-like sources. It has been argued that this approach may yield extraordinary performances in the photon-counting regime. Here, we explore SPADE as a tool for precision measurements in the regime of bright, incoherent sources. First we analyse the general problem of estimating the second moments of the source's intensity distribution, for an extended incoherent source of any shape. Second, we present an experimental application of SPADE to the case of two point-like, bright sources. We demonstrate the use of this setup for the estimation of the transverse separation and for the estimation of their relative intensity.

Diophantine equations in semiprimes

description: A semiprime is a natural number which is the product of two (not necessarily distinct) prime numbers. Let $F(x_1, \ldots, x_n)$ be a degree $d$ homogeneous form with integer coefficients. We provide sufficient conditions, similar to those of the seminal work of B. J. Birch, for which the equation $F (x_1, \ldots, x_n) = 0$ has infinitely many integer solutions with semiprime coordinates. Previously it was known, by a result of Á. Magyar and T. Titichetrakun, that under the same hypotheses there exist infinitely many integer solutions to the equation with coordinates that have at most $384 n^{3/2} d (d+1)$ prime factors.

description: A Riemannian manifold $(M,ρ)$ is called Einstein if the metric $ρ$ satisfies the condition $\Ric (ρ)=c\cdot ρ$ for some constant $c$. This paper is devoted to the investigation of $G$-invariant Einstein metrics with additional symmetries, on some homogeneous spaces $G/H$ of classical groups. As a consequence, we obtain new invariant Einstein metrics on some Stiefel manifolds $SO(n)/SO(l)$, and on the symplectic analogues $Sp(n)/Sp(l)$. Furthermore, we show that for any positive integer $p$ there exists a Stiefel manifold $SO(n)/SO(l)$ and a homogenous space $Sp(n)/Sp(l)$ which admit at least $p$ SO(n) (resp. $Sp(n)$)-invariant Einstein metrics.

description: Let $λ_\mathbb{K}(m)$ denote the maximal absolute projection constant over the subspaces of dimension $m$. Apart from the trivial case for $ m=1$, the only known value of $λ_\mathbb{K}(m)$ is for $ m=2$ and $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}.$ In 1960, B.Grunbaum conjectured that $λ_\mathbb{R}(2)=\frac{4}{3}$ and in 2010, B. Chalmers and G. Lewicki proved it. In 2019, G. Basso delivered the alternative proof of this conjecture. Both proofs are quite complicated, and there was a strong belief that providing an exact value for $λ_\mathbb{K}(m)$ in other cases will be a tough task. In our paper, we present an upper bound of the value $λ_\mathbb{K}(m)$, which becomes an exact value for the numerous cases. The crucial will be combining some results from the articles [B. Bukh, C. Cox, Nearly orthogonal vectors and small antipodal spherical codes, Isr. J. Math. 238, 359-388 (2020)] and [G. Basso, Computation of maximal projection constants, J. Funct. Anal. 277/10 (2019), 3560-3585.], for which simplified proofs will be given.

description: Single-photon sources based on optical parametric processes have been used extensively for quantum information applications due to their flexibility, room-temperature operation and potential for photonic integration. However, the intrinsically probabilistic nature of these sources is a major limitation for realizing large-scale quantum networks. Active feedforward switching of photons from multiple probabilistic sources is a promising approach that can be used to build a deterministic source. However, previous implementations of this approach that utilize spatial and/or temporal multiplexing suffer from rapidly increasing switching losses when scaled to a large number of modes. Here, we break this limitation via frequency multiplexing in which the switching losses remain fixed irrespective of the number of modes. We use the third-order nonlinear process of Bragg scattering four-wave mixing as an efficient ultra-low noise frequency switch and demonstrate multiplexing of three frequency modes. We achieve a record generation rate of $4.6\times10^4$ multiplexed photons per second with an ultra-low $g^{2}(0)$ = 0.07, indicating high single-photon purity. Our scalable, all-fiber multiplexing system has a total loss of just 1.3 dB independent of the number of multiplexed modes, such that the 4.8 dB enhancement from multiplexing three frequency modes markedly overcomes switching loss. Our approach offers a highly promising path to creating a deterministic photon source that can be integrated on a chip-based platform.

Galilean and Carrollian Hodge star operators

description: The standard Hodge star operator is naturally associated with metric tensor (and orientation). It is routinely used to concisely write down physics equations on, say, Lorentzian spacetimes. On Galilean (Carrollian) spacetimes, there is no canonical (nonsingular) metric tensor available. So, the usual construction of the Hodge star does not work. Here we propose analogs of the Hodge star operator on Galilean (Carrollian) spacetimes. They may be used to write down important physics equations, e.g. equations of Galilean (Carrollian) electrodynamics.

description: In this work, we study degradation of clofibric acid (CFA) in aqueous solution using either ionizing radiation from a $^{60}$Co source or a non-thermal plasma produced by discharges in the air above the solution. The results obtained with the two technologies are compared in terms of effectiveness of CFA degradation and its by-products. In both cases the CFA degradation follows a quasi-exponential decay in time well modelled by a kinetic scheme which considers the competition between CFA and all reaction intermediates for the reactive species generated in solution as well as the amount of the end product formed. A new degradation law is deduced to explain the results. Although the end-product CO$_2$ was detected and the CFA conversion found to be very high under the studied conditions, HPLC analysis reveals several degradation intermediates still bearing the aromatic ring with the chlorine substituent. The extent of mineralization is rather limited. The energy yield is found to be higher in the gamma radiation experiments.

We estimate the ranges of the values of 8 violation parameters (delta1u, delta2u, delta3u, delta1d, delta2d, delta3d, phi2, phi3) in our quark mass matrices satisfying quark mass ratios and CKM matrix, where phi2, phi3 are phases. Without these phases, the solution satisfying quark mass ratios and CKM matrix is not obtained. These parameters obtained can explain the CP violation effects.
