description: A variety of novel quantum phases have been achieved in twist bilayer graphene (tBLG) and other moire superlattices recently, including correlated insulators, superconductivity, magnetism, and topological states. These phenomena are very sensitive to the moire superlattices, which can hardly be changed rapidly or intensely. Here, we report the experimental realization of a high-order moire pattern (a high-order interference pattern) in graphene-monolayer xenon heterostructure (G/mXe), with moire period in-situ tuned from few nanometers to infinity by changing the lattice constant of Xe through different annealing temperatures and pressures. We use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to directly observe that replicas of graphene Dirac cone emerge and move close to each other in momentum-space as moire pattern continuously expands in real-space. When the moire period approaches infinity, the replicas finally overlap with each other and an energy gap is observed at the Dirac point induced by intervalley coupling, which is a manifestation of Kekule distortion. We construct a continuum moire Hamiltonian, which can explain the experimental results well. The form of moire Hamiltonian in G/mXe is similar to that in tBLG, and moire band with narrow bandwidth is predicted in G/mXe. However, the moire Hamiltonian couples Dirac fermions from different valleys in G/mXe, instead of ones from different layers in tBLG. Our work demonstrates a novel platform to study the continuous evolution of moire pattern and its modulation effect on electronic structure, and provides an unprecedented approach for tailoring Dirac fermions with tunable intervalley coupling.

description: Based on our recently proposed magnon-density-waves using the microscopic many-body approach, we investigate the longitudinal excitations in quantum antiferromagnets by including the second order corrections in the large-$s$ expansion. The longitudinal excitation spectra for a general spin quantum number using the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg Hamiltonian are obtained for various spin lattice models. For bipartite lattice models, we find that the numerical results for the energy gaps for the longitudinal modes at $q\to0$ and the magnetic ordering wavevector $\bf Q$ are reduced by about $40-50\%$ after including the second order corrections. Thus, our estimate of the energy gaps for the quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) antiferromagnetic compound KCuF$_3$ is in better agreement with the experimental result. For the quasi-1D antiferromagnets on hexagonal lattices, the full excitation spectra of both the transverse modes (i.e., magnons) and the longitudinal modes are obtained as functions of the nearest-neighbor coupling and the anisotropy constants. We find two longitudinal modes due to the non-collinear nature of the triangular antiferromagnetic order, similar to that of the phenomenological field theory approach by Affleck. We compare our results for the longitudinal energy gaps at the magnetic wavevectors with the experimental results for several antiferromagnetic compounds with both integer and non-integer spin quantum numbers, and also find good agreement after the higher-order contributions are included in our calculations.

description: In this paper we present a minimalistic model sufficient for current asymmetries in molecules. In particular, we search for an interaction on the molecule which causes current asymmetries independent of additional assumptions or the precise form of its environment. To this end we first discuss earlier proposals and clarify the importance of additional assumptions. We then present a minimal model of a strongly polarizable molecule which shows a strongly asymmetric I/V calculated within time dependent DMRG.

description: In federated learning (FL), clients may have diverse objectives, and merging all clients' knowledge into one global model will cause negative transfer to local performance. Thus, clustered FL is proposed to group similar clients into clusters and maintain several global models. In the literature, centralized clustered FL algorithms require the assumption of the number of clusters and hence are not effective enough to explore the latent relationships among clients. In this paper, without assuming the number of clusters, we propose a peer-to-peer (P2P) FL algorithm named PANM. In PANM, clients communicate with peers to adaptively form an effective clustered topology. Specifically, we present two novel metrics for measuring client similarity and a two-stage neighbor matching algorithm based Monte Carlo method and Expectation Maximization under the Gaussian Mixture Model assumption. We have conducted theoretical analyses of PANM on the probability of neighbor estimation and the error gap to the clustered optimum. We have also implemented extensive experiments under both synthetic and real-world clustered heterogeneity. Theoretical analysis and empirical experiments show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the P2P FL counterparts, and it achieves better performance than the centralized cluster FL method. PANM is effective even under extremely low communication budgets.

description: Application of the Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage system for mesopic photometry requires that an estimate is made of the observers’ state of luminance adaptation. This paper addresses an assumption made when estimating background luminance, a component of adaptation luminance. Specifically, using spatial sampling of the visual field we compare background luminances determined from assumptions of static or dynamic visual gaze, the former being a simplification, the latter being a better representation based on eye movements when driving. The comparison was undertaken with luminance images of urban scenes at night on three roads, two real and one simulated. It was found that background luminances were significantly higher when estimated using the dynamic assumption. It was also found that scene luminances at the point of foveal fixations tend to be higher than those luminances influencing peripheral regions of the retina. Compared with the background luminance estimated for a dynamic peripheral field, a horizon-centred 10° circle led to a slightly higher estimate and the road surface luminance to a slightly lower estimate of background luminance.

description: Research in multi-agent teaming has increased substantially over recent years, with knowledge-based systems to support teaming processes typically focused on delivering functional (communicative) solutions for a team to act meaningfully in response to direction. Enabling humans to effectively interact and team with a swarm of autonomous cognitive agents is an open research challenge in Human-Swarm Teaming research, partially due to the focus on developing the enabling architectures to support these systems. Typically, bi-directional transparency and shared semantic understanding between agents has not prioritised a designed mechanism in Human-Swarm Teaming, potentially limiting how a human and a swarm team can share understanding and information\textemdash data through concepts and contexts\textemdash to achieve a goal. To address this, we provide a formal knowledge representation design that enables the swarm Artificial Intelligence to reason about its environment and system, ultimately achieving a shared goal. We propose the Ontology for Generalised Multi-Agent Teaming, Onto4MAT, to enable more effective teaming between humans and teams through the biologically-inspired approach of shepherding.

description: The controversies about the structure of the true ground state of pseudorhombohedral compositions of Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O3 (PZT) are addressed using a 6% Sr2+ substituted sample with x=0.550. Sound velocity measurements reveal a phase transition at Tc~279K. The temperature dependence of FWHM of (h00)pc peaks and the unit cell volume also show anomalies around 279K even though there is no indication of any change of space group in the synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (SXRD) patterns. The neutron powder diffraction patterns reveal appearance of superlattice peaks below Tc~279K confirming the existence of an antiferrodistortive phase transition. The Rietveld analysis of the room temperature and low temperature SXRD data below Tc shows that the structure corresponds to single monoclinic phase in the Cm space group while the analysis of neutron powder diffraction data reveals that the structure of the ground state phase below Tc corresponds to the Cc space group. Our analysis shows that the structural models for the ground state phase based on R3c space group with or without the coexistence of the room temperature monoclinic phase in the Cm space group can be rejected.

description: Long range detection is a cornerstone of defense in many operating domains (land, sea, undersea, air, space, ..,). In the cyber domain, long range detection requires the analysis of significant network traffic from a variety of observatories and outposts. Construction of anonymized hypersparse traffic matrices on edge network devices can be a key enabler by providing significant data compression in a rapidly analyzable format that protects privacy. GraphBLAS is ideally suited for both constructing and analyzing anonymized hypersparse traffic matrices. The performance of GraphBLAS on an Accolade Technologies edge network device is demonstrated on a near worse case traffic scenario using a continuous stream of CAIDA Telescope darknet packets. The performance for varying numbers of traffic buffers, threads, and processor cores is explored. Anonymized hypersparse traffic matrices can be constructed at a rate of over 50,000,000 packets per second; exceeding a typical 400 Gigabit network link. This performance demonstrates that anonymized hypersparse traffic matrices are readily computable on edge network devices with minimal compute resources and can be a viable data product for such devices.

description: The growth of quasicrystals, i.e., aperiodic structures with long-range order, seeded from the melt is investigated using a dynamical phase field crystal model. Depending on the thermodynamic conditions, two different growth modes are detected, namely defect-free growth of the stable quasicrystal and a mode dominated by phasonic flips which are incorporated as local defects into the grown structure such that random tiling-like ordering emerges. The latter growth mode is unique to quasicrystals and can be verified in experiments on one-component mesoscopic systems.

description: The  tomb  of  Mary  Butts  lies  in  the  windswept  graveyard  of  Sennen  Church,  its  entrance  barely  visible  from  the  A30  that  connects Sennen Cove to the rest of the Penwith peninsula and onward  towards  Land’s  End.  Butts  moved  to  Cornwall  in  1932  and  purchased  a  small  bungalow,  the  unimaginatively  named  1 Marine View. Renaming her home Te b e l   Vo s (House of Mag-ic), this location would be the site of a prolific period in Butts’ published  writing  career,  with  the  novel  The  Death  of  Felicity  Tavener coming  out  in  the  same  year,  closely  followed  byThe  Macedonian[1933] and Scenes from the Life of Cleopatra (1935). At the time of her death on 5 March 1937 at the West Cornwall Hospital  in  Penzance  from  a  perforated  duodenal  ulcer  and  diabetes,  Butts  was  working  on  a  study  of  emperor  Julian  the  Apostate  and  had  recently  completed  her  autobiography,  The Crystal  Cabinet.  Published  posthumously,  the  frontispiece  of  the book was a copy of a portrait made of Butts by her friend, the  artist  and  filmmaker,  Jean  Cocteau.  Her  tombstone  carries  two epitaphs, an example, perhaps, of the contradictory nature of her life. The first, still clearly legible states ‘Mary Butts, wife of Gabriel Aitkin’. The second, is now almost illegible, the carv-ing  eroded  by  salt,  wind  and  the  encroachment  of  lichen,  but  the words ‘I strove to seize the inmost form’, can just about be read,  under  closer  scrutiny.  This  second  epitaph,  a  quote  from  the  poem  ‘The  Crystal  Cabinet’  by  William  Blake,  was  placed  by  her  daughter  Camilla  acknowledges  the  influence  of  this  writer — whose life was entwined with Butts and her extended family. Butts’ grandfather was a patron and supporter of Blake, and his collection was installed in the Butts family home of Salt-erns in Poole, Dorset. The decision to sell this collection in 1906 preoccupied Butts for the remainder of her life, and her personal sense of loss and a dislocation of birthright foregrounds much of her writing. It would perhaps satisfy her to know that in 1939 the purchaser Graham Robertson bequeathed the Blakes to the Tate where it forms a substantial part of the national collection. The Crystal Cabinet was published by Methuen in June 1937.

description: Memory is a ubiquitous characteristic of complex systems and critical phenomena are one of the most intriguing phenomena in nature. Here, we propose an Ising model with memory and develop a corresponding theory of critical phenomena with memory for complex systems and discovered a series of surprising novel results. We show that a naive theory of a usual Hamiltonian with a direct inclusion of a power-law decaying long-range temporal interaction violates radically a hyperscaling law for all spatial dimensions even at and below the upper critical dimension. This entails both indispensable consideration of the Hamiltonian for dynamics, rather than the usual practice of just focusing on the corresponding dynamic Lagrangian alone, and transformations that result in a correct theory in which space and time are inextricably interwoven, leading to an effective spatial dimension that repairs the hyperscaling law. The theory gives rise to a set of novel mean-field critical exponents, which are different from the usual Landau ones, as well as new universality classes. These exponents are verified by numerical simulations of the Ising model with memory in two and three spatial dimensions.

This is also an aid to imagine the paradox of the immaterial soft-ware  within  the  collapse  of  matter.  With  no  input,  Mnemesoid  replays  moments  on  the  limit  of  experience  that  have  defied  its  capacity  to  produce  a  satisfactory  sensory  dimension,  moments  of intense touch, love, erotic and spiritual and self-consciousness.

description: Recent advances in neural text-to-speech research have been dominated by two-stage pipelines utilizing low-level intermediate speech representation such as mel-spectrograms. However, such predetermined features are fundamentally limited, because they do not allow to exploit the full potential of a data-driven approach through learning hidden representations. For this reason, several end-to-end methods have been proposed. However, such models are harder to train and require a large number of high-quality recordings with transcriptions. Here, we propose WavThruVec - a two-stage architecture that resolves the bottleneck by using high-dimensional Wav2Vec 2.0 embeddings as intermediate speech representation. Since these hidden activations provide high-level linguistic features, they are more robust to noise. That allows us to utilize annotated speech datasets of a lower quality to train the first-stage module. At the same time, the second-stage component can be trained on large-scale untranscribed audio corpora, as Wav2Vec 2.0 embeddings are already time-aligned. This results in an increased generalization capability to out-of-vocabulary words, as well as to a better generalization to unseen speakers. We show that the proposed model not only matches the quality of state-of-the-art neural models, but also presents useful properties enabling tasks like voice conversion or zero-shot synthesis.

description: Role of urban planning and management in Hyderabad is becoming more and more crucial due to the dramatic increase in urban population and allied urban problems. Hyderabad is experiencing a rapid urbanization rate. Urbanization contributes many advantages in terms of economics, but if uncontrolled, would produce negative consequences to the physical, social and natural environment. With the advancement of GIS, which considerably influenced the dynamic nature of urban and regional planning, incorporation of GIS becomes imperative for better and improved decision-making in urban planning and management. It offers a solution to the urban problems and decision-making, which is more reliant to the real-time spatial modelling. The integration of Geographical Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing has provided a tool, which can contribute to much clearer understanding of real planning problems as well as prescriptive planning scenarios to enhance the quality of urban planning and management.

description: We review the formation and evolution of compact binary stars consisting of white dwarfs (WDs), neutron stars (NSs), and black holes (BHs). Mergings of compact binary stars are expected to be the most important sources for the forthcoming gravitational-wave (GW) astronomy. In the first part of the review, we discuss observational manifestations of close binary stars with NS and/or black components and their merger rate, crucial points in the formation and evolution of compact stars in binary systems, including the treatment of the natal kicks which NSs and BHs acquire during the core collapse of massive stars and the common envelope phase of binary evolution, which are most relevant to the merging rates of NS-NS, NS-BH and BH-BH binaries. The second part of the review is devoted mainly to formation and evolution of binary WDs and their observational manifestations, including their role as progenitors of cosmologically important thermonuclear SN Ia. We also consider AM CVn-stars which are thought to be the best verification binary GW sources for future low-frequency GW space interferometers.

description: Products codes (PCs) are conventionally decoded with efficient iterative bounded-distance decoding (iBDD) based on hard-decision channel outputs which entails a performance loss compared to a soft-decision decoder. Recently, several hybrid algorithms have been proposed aimed to improve the performance of iBDD decoders via the aid of a certain amount of soft information while keeping the decoding complexity similarly low as in iBDD. We propose a novel hybrid low-complexity decoder for PCs based on error-and-erasure (EaE) decoding and dynamic reliability scores (DRSs). This decoder is based on a novel EaE component code decoder, which is able to decode beyond the designed distance of the component code but suffers from an increased miscorrection probability. The DRSs, reflecting the reliability of a codeword bit, are used to detect and avoid miscorrections. Simulation results show that this policy can reduce the miscorrection rate significantly and improves the decoding performance. The decoder requires only ternary message passing and a slight increase of computational complexity compared to iBDD, which makes it suitable for high-speed communication systems. Coding gains of up to 1.2 dB compared to the conventional iBDD decoder are observed.
The Missing Body of JT Leroy
Creators: name: Kollectiv, Pil
Publisher: name: punctum books

description: Not much remains of the body of JT Leroy. To start with, it is a body first and foremost made of words. Over the course of debut novel Sarah, short story collection The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things and the novella Howard’s End, this body is portrayed as  highly  attuned  to  the  sensual  qualities  of  the  mostly  grim  world it inhabits. It endures extremes of physical torture, from a  disciplinarian  grandfather’s  whipping  to  sexual  abuse  from  mother  Sarah’s  boyfriends.  It  registers  the  ultra-specific  smells  that pervade its low-rent environment, from the Naugahyde up-holstery of car seats to the overwhelming, eye-searing odour of freshly cut ramps, a kind of wild onion native to West Virginia. The  reader’s  ability  to  empathise  with  this  damaged  body—to  vicariously  feel  the  impact  of  the  drugs,  sex  and  violence  that  it is subjected to—is at the heart of the entire project. And yet for  all  the  power  of  these  descriptions  to  conjure  the  intensity  of  lived  experience,  the  actual  existence  of  this  body  has  only  ever been fragmentary at best, dispersed across telephone calls, emails, stand-ins and other evasive manoeuvres.

Defect dynamics in active smectics induced by confining geometry and topology

description: The persistent dynamics in systems out of equilibrium, particularly those characterized by annihilation and creation of topological defects, is known to involve complicated spatiotemporal processes and is deemed difficult to control. Here the complex dynamics of defects in active smectic layers exposed to strong confinements is explored, through self-propulsion of active particles and a variety of confining geometries with different topology, ranging from circular, flower-shaped epicycloid, to hypocycloid cavities, channels, and rings. We identify a wealth of dynamical behaviors during the evolution of complex spatiotemporal defect patterns as induced by the confining shape and topology, particularly a perpetual creation-annihilation dynamical state at intermediate activity with large fluctuations of topological defects and a controllable transition from oscillatory to damped time correlation of defect number density via mechanisms governed by boundary cusps. Our results are obtained by using an active phase field crystal approach. Possible experimental realizations are also discussed.

VRKG4Rec: Virtual Relational Knowledge Graphs for Recommendation

description: Incorporating knowledge graph as side information has become a new trend in recommendation systems. Recent studies regard items as entities of a knowledge graph and leverage graph neural networks to assist item encoding, yet by considering each relation type individually. However, relation types are often too many and sometimes one relation type involves too few entities. We argue that it is not efficient nor effective to use every relation type for item encoding. In this paper, we propose a VRKG4Rec model (Virtual Relational Knowledge Graphs for Recommendation), which explicitly distinguish the influence of different relations for item representation learning. We first construct virtual relational graphs (VRKGs) by an unsupervised learning scheme. We also design a local weighted smoothing (LWS) mechanism for encoding nodes, which iteratively updates a node embedding only depending on the embedding of its own and its neighbors, but involve no additional training parameters. We also employ the LWS mechanism on a user-item bipartite graph for user representation learning, which utilizes encodings of items with relational knowledge to help training representations of users. Experiment results on two public datasets validate that our VRKG4Rec model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. The implementations are available at https://github.com/lulu0913/VRKG4Rec.

description: Do the partial order and ortholattice operations of a quantum logic correspond to the logical implication and connectives of classical logic? Re-phrased, how far might a classical understanding of quantum mechanics be, in principle, possible? A celebrated result by Kochen and Specker answers the above question in the negative. However, this answer is just one among different possible ones, not all negative. It is our aim to discuss the above question in terms of mappings of quantum worlds into classical ones, more specifically, in terms of embeddings of quantum logics into classical logics; depending upon the type of restrictions imposed on embeddings the question may get negative or positive answers.

High-precision predictions for the light CP-even Higgs Boson Mass of the MSSM

description: For the interpretation of the signal discovered in the Higgs searches at the LHC it will be crucial in particular to discriminate between the minimal Higgs sector realised in the Standard Model (SM) and its most commonly studied extension, the Minimal Supersymmetric SM (MSSM). The measured mass value, having already reached the level of a precision observable with an experimental accuracy of about 500 MeV, plays an important role in this context. In the MSSM the mass of the light CP-even Higgs boson, M_h, can directly be predicted from the other parameters of the model. The accuracy of this prediction should at least match the one of the experimental result. The relatively high mass value of about 126 GeV has led to many investigations where the scalar top quarks are in the multi-TeV range. We improve the prediction for M_h in the MSSM by combining the existing fixed-order result, comprising the full one-loop and leading and subleading two-loop corrections, with a resummation of the leading and subleading logarithmic contributions from the scalar top sector to all orders. In this way for the first time a high-precision prediction for the mass of the light CP-even Higgs boson in the MSSM is possible all the way up to the multi-TeV region of the relevant supersymmetric particles. The results are included in the code FeynHiggs.

description: We present an ansatz for the ground states of the Quantum Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, a paradigmatic model for quantum spin glasses. Our ansatz, based on the concept of generalized coherent states, very well captures the fundamental aspects of the model, including the ground state energy and the position of the spin glass phase transition. It further enables us to study some previously unexplored features, such as the non-vanishing longitudinal field regime and the entanglement structure of the ground states. We find that the ground state entanglement can be captured by a simple ensemble of weighted graph states with normally distributed phase gates, leading to a volume law entanglement, contrasting with predictions based on entanglement monogamy.

description: We report the fabrication of both n-type and p-type WSe2 field effect transistors with hexagonal boron nitride passivated channels and ionic-liquid (IL)-gated graphene contacts. Our transport measurements reveal intrinsic channel properties including a metal-insulator transition at a characteristic conductivity close to the quantum conductance e2/h, a high ON/OFF ratio of >107 at 170 K, and large electron and hole mobility of ~200 cm2V-1s-1 at 160 K. Decreasing the temperature to 77 K increases mobility of electrons to ~330 cm2V-1s-1 and that of holes to ~270 cm2V-1s-1. We attribute our ability to observe the intrinsic, phonon limited conduction in both the electron and hole channels to the drastic reduction of the Schottky barriers between the channel and the graphene contact electrodes using IL gating. We elucidate this process by studying a Schottky diode consisting of a single graphene/WSe2 Schottky junction. Our results indicate the possibility to utilize chemically or electrostatically highly doped graphene for versatile, flexible and transparent low-resistance Ohmic contacts to a wide range of quasi-2D semiconductors.

description: Not  long  after  their  arrival  in  Rome  at  the  start  of  April  1867,  the  brothers  Edmond  and  Jules  de  Goncourt  noted,  in  a  jour-nal entry anticipating the style if not the sensibility of Thomas Bernhard, that everything that is beautiful here is beautiful in a course, material way. The pair would stay for six weeks, touring the  city’s  galleries  with  an  eye  that  seemed  in  no  way  softened  by  the  languors  of  travel:  Raphael’s  Transfiguration  is  reported  to  give  the  impression  of  wallpaper,  while  his  Resurrection  is  judged purely academic. This, a supernatural event, a divine leg-end?  I  know  no  canvas  which  depicts  it  in  a  commoner  prose,  a  more vulgar beauty. And it’s true: for a recently resurrected body, Raphael’s Christ does seem kind of jaded, but I’m less interested in the value or the vehemence of the brothers’ judgement here, than in the way the Journal slides, as it often does elsewhere, so casually  and  without  warning,  from  the  first-person  plural  to  the first-person singular. After their mother’s death in 1848, the brothers were apart for more than twenty-four hours only twice. While working together on their novels, plays, art criticism and journal entries, Jules would hold the pen while Edmond—eight years  the  elder  —  stood  behind  him,  pacing  back  and  forth,  leaning over his shoulder with suggestions. It is impossible to at-tribute any entry to one or the other, their translator notes. Theirs is  an  I  containing  more  than  itself.  It  is  a  singular  pronoun  of  multitudes. It is a crowd, a site of excess.
