description: Elasticity is a key property of cloud computing. However, elasticity is offered today at the granularity of virtual machines, which take tens of seconds to start. This is insufficient to react to load spikes and sudden failures in latency sensitive applications, leading users to resort to expensive overprovisioning. Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) provides significantly higher elasticity than VMs, but comes coupled with an event-triggered programming model and a constrained execution environment that makes them unsuitable for off-the-shelf applications. Previous work tries to overcome these obstacles but often requires re-architecting the applications. In this paper, we show how off-the-shelf applications can transparently benefit from ephemeral elasticity with FaaS. We built Boxer, an interposition layer spanning VMs and AWS Lambda, that intercepts application execution and emulates the network-of-hosts environment that applications expect when deployed in a conventional VM/container environment. The ephemeral elasticity of Boxer enables significant performance and cost savings for off-the-shelf applications with, e.g., recovery times over 5x faster than EC2 instances and absorbing load spikes comparable to overprovisioned EC2 VM instances.

description: A 70Msun BH was discovered in Milky Way disk in a long period and almost circular detached binary system (LB-1) with a high metallicity 8Msun B star companion. Current consensus on the formation of BHs from high metallicity stars limits the black hole mass to be below 20Msun. Using simple evolutionary model, we show that the formation of a 70Msun BH in high metallicity environment is possible if stellar wind mass loss rates are reduced by factor of 5. As observations indicate, a fraction of massive stars have surface magnetic fields which may quench the wind mass-loss, independently of stellar mass and metallicity. We also computed detailed stellar evolution models and we confirm such a scenario. A non-rotating 85Msun model at Z=0.014 with decreased winds ends up as a 71Msun star prior core-collapse with a 32Msun helium core and a 28Msun CO core. Such star avoids pair-instability pulsation supernova mass loss and may form a 70Msun BH in the direct collapse. Stars that can form such BHs expand to significant size with radius of R>600Rsun, exceeding the size of LB-1 orbit. Therefore, we can explain the formation of BHs upto 70Msun at high metallicity and this result is independent from LB-1. However, if LB-1 hosts a massive BH we are unable to explain how such a binary star system could have formed without invoking some exotic scenarios.

description: Dirac's method for variations of a brane embedded in co-dimension one is demonstrated. The variation in the location of the brane invokes a rest frame formulation of the 'sandwiched' brane action. We first demonstrate the necessity of this method by re-deriving Snell's law. Second, we apply the method to a general $N$-dimensional brane embedded in co-dimension one bulk in the presence of gravity. We re-derive the brane equations: (i) Israel junction condition, (ii) Energy/momentum conservation on the brane, and (iii) Geodetic-type equation for the brane.

description: A new gauge-invariant approach for describing cosmological perturbations is developed. It is based on a physically motivated splitting of the stress-energy tensor of the perturbation into two parts - the bare perturbation and the complementary perturbation associated with stresses in the background gravitational field induced by the introduction of the bare perturbation. The complementary perturbation of the stress-energy tensor is explicitly singled out and taken to the left side of the perturbed Einstein equations so that the bare stress-energy tensor is the sole source for the perturbation of the metric tensor and both sides of these equations are gauge invariant with respect to infinitesimal coordinate transformations. For simplicity we analyze the perturbations of the spatially-flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker dust model. A cosmological gauge can be chosen such that the equations for the perturbations of the metric tensor are completely decoupled for the h_{00}, h_{0i}, and h_{ij} metric components and explicitly solvable in terms of retarded integrals.

Quark mixing from softly broken symmetries

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Quark flavor mixing may originate in the soft breaking of horizontal symmetries. Those symmetries, which in the simplest case are three family U(1) groups, are obeyed only by the dimension-4 Yukawa couplings and lead, when unbroken, to the absence of mixing. Their breaking may arise from the dimension-3 mass terms of SU(2)-singlet vector-like quarks. Those gauge-singlet mass terms break the horizontal symmetries at a scale much higher than the Fermi scale, yet softly, leading to quark mixing while the quark masses remain unsuppressed.

description: On April 21, 2021 we hosted the first of CoAct’s *Open*Citizen*Social*Science hangouts. Bringing together a lively diverse group of researchers, community organizers and hybrid actors, we gathered in order to discuss how to shape a series of community hangouts that is most beneficial to everyone. The overall objective of the hangout series is to foster discourse around topics relevant to the growing community we have initiated via our recently created *Open*Citizen*Social*Science Signal group. The group was set up to create an environment for a low barrier, instant exchange of thoughts, events, materials, and much more. In the first hangout, we wanted to offer a space to answer questions and collectively identify the topics relevant to the community to co-create a future hangout agenda. Through those two platforms, the signal group, and a series of frequent hangouts, we wish to gradually strengthen the community, driven by what is relevant to everyone being part of it. In a next step our community members will sign up for topics they wish to host a community hangout on. With the support of the CoAct team we will run the hangouts on various platforms, addressing the relevancies of our diverse community members.
Gluon polarization tensor in a magnetized medium: Analytic approach starting from the sum over Landau levels

description: We present an analytic method to compute the one-loop magnetic correction to the gluon polarization tensor starting from the Landau-level representation of the quark propagator in the presence of an external magnetic field. We show that the general expression contains the vacuum contribution that can be isolated from the zero-field limit for finite gluon momentum. The general tensor structure for the gluon polarization also contains two spurious terms that do not satisfy the transversality properties. However, we also show that the coefficients of this structures vanish and thus do not contribute to the polarization tensor, as expected. In order to check the validity of the expressions we study the strong and weak field limits and show that well established results are reproduced. The findings can be used to study the conditions for gluons to equilibrate with the magnetic field produced during the early stages of a relativistic heavy-ion collision.

Conditional Symmetries and the Quantization of Bianchi Type I Vacuum Cosmologies with and without Cosmological Constant

description: In this work, the quantization of the most general Bianchi Type I geometry, with and without a cosmological constant, is considered. In the spirit of identifying and subsequently removing as many gauge degrees of freedom as possible, a reduction of the initial 6--dimensional configuration space is presented. This reduction is achieved by imposing as additional conditions on the wave function, the quantum version of the --linear in momenta-- classical integrals of motion (conditional symmetries). The vector fields inferred from these integrals induce, through their integral curves, motions in the configuration space which can be identified to the action of the automorphism group of Type I, i.e. $GL(3,\Re)$. Thus, a wave function depending on one degree of freedom, namely the determinant of the scale factor matrix, is found. A measure for constructing the Hilbert space is proposed. This measure respects the above mentioned symmetries, and is also invariant under the classical property of covariance under arbitrary scalings of the Hamiltonian (quadratic constraint).

description: When finetuning multiple tasks altogether, it is important to carefully weigh them to get a good performance, but searching for good weights can be difficult and costly. Here, we propose to aid the search with fast previews to quickly get a rough idea of different reweighting options. We use model merging to create previews by simply reusing and averaging parameters of models trained on each task separately (no retraining required). To improve the quality of previews, we propose a Bayesian approach to design new merging strategies by using more flexible posteriors. We validate our findings on vision and natural-language transformers. Our work shows the benefits of model merging via Bayes to improve multitask finetuning.

In particular, the first numerical study for the cosmological observables with the power-law corrected entropy is performed. We also show that the neutrino mass sum has a non-zero central value with a relaxed upper bound in the Tsallis entropy model comparing with that in the $Λ$CDM one.

Electromagnetic signals from the decay of free neutrons in the first hours of neutron star mergers
Creators: name: Gottlieb, Ore
name: Loeb, Abraham
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The first hours following a neutron star merger are considered to provide several UV/optical/NIR signals: $ β$-decay emission from free neutrons, radioactive decay of shocked heavy elements in the cocoon and cocoon's cooling emission. Here we consider two additional emission sources: $ β$-decay of free neutrons in the cocoon and synchrotron by the $ β$-decay electrons. We present 3D RHD simulations of jets that propagate in a multi-layer ejecta from the merger and calculate semi-analytically the resulting light curves. We find that the free neutrons emission at high latitudes is enhanced by the cocoon by a factor of a few to power a wide ($ \lesssim 60^\circ $) and brief ($ \sim 1 $ hour) UV signal that can reach an absolute magnitude of $\gtrsim$ -15, comparable with the cooling emission. If the ejected neutron matter mass is $ M_n \gtrsim 10^{-4}{\rm M_\odot} $, the synchrotron emission may yield a long ($ \sim 8 $ hours) quasi-isotropic UV/optical signal with an absolute magnitude between -12 and -15, depending on the magnetic field. Such a high mass of a mildly-relativistic component may partly obscure the cocoon's shocked r-process elements, thereby attenuating its radioactive decay emission. Future observations on these timescales, including null detections, may place constraints on the ejected neutron matter mass and shed light on the ejecta and jet-cocoon characteristics.

description: Graviton production due to collapsing extra dimensions is studied. The momenta lying in the extra dimensions are taken into account. A $D$-dimensional background is matched to an effectively four-dimensional standard radiation dominated universe. Using observational constraints on the present gravitational wave spectrum, a bound on the maximal temperature at the beginning of the radiation era is derived. This expression depends on the number of extra dimensions, as well as on the $D$-dimensional Planck mass. Furthermore, it is found that the extra dimensions have to be large.

This up-front investment can highly facilitate access to such Internet potentials by food chain SMEs. Nevertheless, SMEs require a systematic support for being able to decide on which technological enablers are relevant at which moment of their business evolution. To characterise a decision reference, a hierarchy of needs of food chain SMEs is presented that can serve as baseline when aiming at the usage of the FI-PPP results in an SME environment.

Task and Motion Planning

description: Obtaining real-world data for robotics tasks is harder than for other modalities such as vision and text. The data that is currently available for robot learning is mostly set in static scenes, and deals with a single robot only. Dealing with multiple robots comes with additional difficulties compared to single robot settings: the motion planning for multiple agents needs to take into account the movement of the other robots, and task planning needs to consider which robot a task is assigned to in addition to when a task should be done.

In this work, we present TAPAS, a simulated dataset containing task and motion plans for multiple robots acting asynchronously in the same workspace and modifying the same environment. We consider prehensile manipulation in this dataset, and focus on various pick-and-place tasks. We demonstrate that training using this data for predicting makespan of a task sequence enables speeding up finding low makespan sequences by ranking sequences before computing the full motion plan.

Code and datasets are open source and available on the project website, where videos of plans can be found as well.

description: Improvements in the food sector imply enhancements of delivering food which is safe, affordable, readily available, and of the quality and diversity consumers expect. However, prevalent information systems (IS) of companies in the food industry are not ready to support further significant improvements. They especially lack the capability to exchange relevant information in an efficient manner. Since recently, two major developments can be observed from IS perspective: the spreading of service-oriented architectures (SOA) as well as an increase in mass serialization (due to public and private traceability requirements, e.g.). So far, though most important due to food safety, a growing need to become more efficient as well as an increasing information demand of consumers, the food sector has attracted little attention in literature concerning an analysis about the potential of both service-orientation and the Electronic Product Code (EPC) Network. This is why this paper will investigate to which extent these two developments can contribute to facilitate food companies’ IS helping them to maintain their competiveness. As a starting point, the research paper will depict the state of the art including SOA and the EPC Network. After describing the research approach, it will proceed with a characterisation of the food sector including an examination why there is need for action. Based on current research findings as well as experience gathered in recent projects, the paper will investigate the application of the EPC Network with its three major components, i. e. EPCIS (EPC Information Services), ONS (Object Name Service) and the EPC Discovery Services, as part of future IS architectures in this sector. The paper will close with a discussion whether the envisioned IS architecture is appropriate to accomplish the previously identified challenges and requirements in the food sector in a more agile, efficient and effective way.

description: It is shown that the N=4 superalgebra of the Dirac theory in Taub-NUT space has different unitary representations related among themselves through unitary U(2) transformations. In particular the SU(2) transformations are generated by the spin-like operators constructed with the help of the same covariantly constant Killing-Yano tensors which generate Dirac-type operators. A parity operator is defined and some explicit transformations which connect the Dirac-type operators among themselves are given. These transformations form a discrete group which is a realization of the quaternion discrete group. The fifth Dirac operator constructed using the non-covariant Killing-Yano tensor of the Taub-NUT space is quite special. This non-standard Dirac operator is connected with the hidden symmetry and is not equivalent to the Dirac-type operators of the standard N=4 supersymmetry.

description: Oceans play a big role in the nature of our planet, about $ 70 \% $ of our earth is covered by water. Strong currents are transporting warm water around the world making life possible, and allowing us to harvest its power producing energy. Yet, oceans also carry a much more deadly side. Floods and tsunamis can easily annihilate whole cities and destroy life in seconds. The earth's climate system is also very much linked to the currents in the ocean due to its large coverage of the earth's surface, thus, gaining scientific insights into the mechanisms and effects through simulations is of high importance. Deep ocean currents can be simulated by means of wall-bounded turbulent flow simulations. To support these very large scale numerical simulations and enable the scientists to interpret their output, we deploy an interactive visualization framework to study sheared thermal convection. The visualizations are based on volume rendering of the temperature field. To address the needs of supercomputer users with different hardware and software resources, we evaluate different volume rendering implementations supported in the ParaView environment: two GPU-based solutions with Kitware's native volume mapper or NVIDIA's IndeX library, and a CPU-only Intel OSPRay-based implementation.

description: After reviewing the relation of entropy to information, I derive the entropy bound as applied to bounded weakly gravitating systems, and review the bound's applications to cosmology as well as its extensions to higher dimensions. I then discuss why black holes behave as 1-D objects when emitting entropy, which suggests that a black hole swallows information at a rate restricted by the one-channel information capacity. I discuss fundamental limitations on the information borne by signal pulses in curved spacetime, from which I verify the mentioned bound on the rate of information disposal by a black hole.

description: Modelling efforts in opinion dynamics have to a large extent ignored that opinion exchange between individuals can also have an effect on how willing they are to express their opinion publicly. Here, we introduce a model of public opinion expression. Two groups of agents with different opinion on an issue interact with each other, changing the willingness to express their opinion according to whether they perceive themselves as part of the majority or minority opinion. We formulate the model as a multi-group majority game and investigate the Nash equilibria. We also provide a dynamical systems perspective: Using the reinforcement learning algorithm of $Q$-learning, we reduce the $N$-agent system in a mean-field approach to two dimensions which represent the two opinion groups. This two-dimensional system is analyzed in a comprehensive bifurcation analysis of its parameters. The model identifies social-structural conditions for public opinion predominance of different groups. Among other findings, we show under which circumstances a minority can dominate public discourse.

description: In open-pit mines, the long-term production scheduling (LTPS) problem is a mixed-integer programming problem and is considered as a class of NP-hard problems that has to be solved in a reasonably small time owing to the operational requirements. The LTPS problem cannot be considered a well-solved problem. The current article presents hybrid models to elucidate the LTPS problem regarding grade uncertainty with the involvement of Lagrangian relaxation and augmented Lagrangian relaxation (ALR) with metaheuristic methods, firefly algorithm (FA) and bat algorithm. The results demonstrate that the ALR-FA has the best results in terms of net present value, average ore grade and computational time, and it is significantly better than the conventional method. Finally, analysis of the results shows that the proposed method generates a near-optimal solution within a reasonable time; thus, it could be a good proposition for use in the industry.

description: We investigate the behavior of quantum states under stochastic local quantum operations and classical communication (SLOCC) for fixed numbers of qubits. We explicitly exhibit the homomorphism between complex and real groups for two-qubits, and use the latter to describe the effect of SLOCC operations on two-qubit states. We find an expression for the polarization Lorentz group invariant length, which is the Minkowskian analog of the quantum state purity, the corresponding Euclidean length. The construction presented is immediately generalizable to any finite number of qubits.

description: The provision of reliable food information, for instance by printing an authorised nutrition or health claim on a package of food, makes credence dimensions of a food transparent to the consumer. In Europe, prior-to-use authorisation of nutrition and health claims are mandatory and governed by Regulation (EC) 1924/2006. The aim of this paper is to assess the problems and pitfalls of the European claims regime to food businesses. A legal-economic review is performed, supported by case studies. Strategic factors determining whether or not to claim are of a legal-economic kind. Strategic responses include refraining from the use or application of claims, abstaining from innovation, and/or circumvention of the authorisation procedure. Negative social-economic effects make it necessary to improve the present legal structures with respect to their effectiveness while maintaining the balance between public control and individual freedom.

description: How do groups of individuals achieve consensus in movement decisions? Do individuals follow their friends, the one predetermined leader, or whomever just happens to be nearby? To address these questions computationally, we formalize "Coordination Strategy Inference Problem". In this setting, a group of multiple individuals moves in a coordinated manner towards a target path. Each individual uses a specific strategy to follow others (e.g. nearest neighbors, pre-defined leaders, preferred friends). Given a set of time series that includes coordinated movement and a set of candidate strategies as inputs, we provide the first methodology (to the best of our knowledge) to infer whether each individual uses local-agreement-system or dictatorship-like strategy to achieve movement coordination at the group level. We evaluate and demonstrate the performance of the proposed framework by predicting the direction of movement of an individual in a group in both simulated datasets as well as two real-world datasets: a school of fish and a troop of baboons. Moreover, since there is no prior methodology for inferring individual-level strategies, we compare our framework with the state-of-the-art approach for the task of classification of group-level-coordination models. The results show that our approach is highly accurate in inferring the correct strategy in simulated datasets even in complicated mixed strategy settings, which no existing method can infer. In the task of classification of group-level-coordination models, our framework performs better than the state-of-the-art approach in all datasets. Animal data experiments show that fish, as expected, follow their neighbors, while baboons have a preference to follow specific individuals. Our methodology generalizes to arbitrary time series data of real numbers, beyond movement data.

description: We show that finite physical clocks always have well-behaved signals, namely that every waiting-time distribution generated by a physical process on a system of finite size is guaranteed to be bounded by a decay envelope. Following this consideration, we show that one can reconstruct the distribution using only operationally available information, namely, that of the ordering of the ticks of one clock with the respect to those of another clock (which we call the reference), and that the simplest possible reference clock -- a Poisson process -- suffices.

description: We build the Z$_{3}$ invariants fusion rules associated to the (D$_{4}$,A$_{6}$) conformal algebra. This algebra is known to describe the tri-critical Potts model. The 4-pt correlation functions of critical fields are developed in the bootstrap approach, and in the other hand, they are written in term of integral representation of the conformal blocks. By comparing both the expressions, one can determine the structure constantes of the operator algebra.
