description: WASP-148 is a recently announced extra-solar system harbouring at least two giant planets. The inner planet transits its host star. The planets travel on eccentric orbits and are near the 4:1 mean-motion resonance, which implies significant mutual gravitational interactions. In particular, this causes transit-timing variations of a few minutes, which were detected based on ground-based photometry. This made WASP-148 one of the few cases where such a phenomenon was detected without space-based photometry. Here, we present a self-consistent model of WASP-148 that takes into account the gravitational interactions between all known bodies in the system. Our analysis simultaneously fits the available radial velocities and transit light curves. In particular, we used the photometry secured by the TESS space telescope and made public after the WASP-148 discovery announcement. The TESS data confirm the transit-timing variations, but only in combination with previously measured transit times. The system parameters we derived agree with those previously reported and have a significantly improved precision, including the mass of the non-transiting planet. We found a significant mutual inclination between the orbital planes of the two planets: I=41.0 +6.2 -7.6 deg based on the modelling of the observations, although we found I=20.8 +/- 4.6 deg when we imposed a constraint on the model enforcing long-term dynamical stability. When a third planet was added to the model - based on a candidate signal in the radial velocity - the mutual inclination between planets b and c changed significantly allowing solutions closer to coplanar. We conclude that more data are needed to establish the true architecture of the system. If the significant mutual inclination is confirmed, WASP-148 would become one of the only few candidate non-coplanar planetary systems. We discuss possible origins for this misalignment.

description: The results of a search for supersymmetry in final states containing at least one isolated lepton (electron or muon), jets and large missing transverse momentum with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are reported. The search is based on proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV collected in 2012, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20 fb$^{-1}$. No significant excess above the Standard Model expectation is observed. Limits are set on the parameters of a minimal universal extra dimensions model, excluding a compactification radius of $1/R_c=950$ GeV for a cut-off scale times radius ($ΛR_c$) of approximately 30, as well as on sparticle masses for various supersymmetric models. Depending on the model, the search excludes gluino masses up to 1.32 TeV and squark masses up to 840 GeV.

description: Although the spatial curvature has been precisely determined via the cosmic microwave background (CMB) observation by Planck satellite, it still suffers from the well-known cosmic curvature tension. As a standard siren, gravitational waves (GWs) from binary neutron star mergers provide a direct way to measure the luminosity distance. In addition, the accelerating expansion of the universe may cause an additional phase shift in the gravitational waveform, which allows us to measure the acceleration parameter. This measurement provides an important opportunity to determine the curvature parameter $Ω_k$ in the GW domain based on the combination of two different observables for the same objects at high redshifts. In this study, we investigate how such an idea could be implemented with future generation of space-based DECi-hertz Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (DECIGO) in the framework of two model-independent methods. Our results show that DECIGO could provide a reliable and stringent constraint on the cosmic curvature at a precision of $ΔΩ_k$=0.12, which is comparable to existing results based on different electromagnetic data. Our constraints are more stringent than the traditional electromagnetic method from the Pantheon SNe Ia sample, which shows no evidence for the deviation from the flat universe at $z\sim 2.3$. More importantly, with our model-independent method, such a second-generation space-based GW detector would also be able to explore the possible evolution $Ω_k$ with redshifts, through direct measurements of cosmic curvature at different redshifts ($z\sim 5$). Such a model-independent $Ω_k$ reconstruction to the distance past can become a milestone in gravitational-wave cosmology.

description: We derive an exact black hole solution for the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with Yang-Mills field in $4D$ AdS spacetime and investigate its thermodynamic properties to calculate exact expressions for the black hole mass, temperature, entropy and heat capacity. The thermodynamic quantities get modification in the presence of Yang-Mills field, however, entropy remains unaffected by the Yang-Mills charge. The solution exhibits $P-v$ criticality and belongs to the universality class of Van der Waals fluid. We study the effect of Gauss-Bonnet coupling and Yang-Mills charge on the critical behaviour and black hole phase transition. We observe that the values of critical exponents increase with the Yang-Mills charge and decrease with the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant.

description: In this work we explore the interplay between superconductivity and nematicity in the framework of a Ginzburg Landau theory with a nematic order parameter coupled to the superconductor order parameter, often used in the description of superconductivity of Fe based materials. In particular, we focus on the study of the vortex-vortex interaction in order to determine the way nematicity affects its attractive or repulsive character. To do so, we use a dynamical method based on the solutions of the Time Dependent Ginzburg Landau equations in a bulk superconductor. An important contribution of our work is the implementation of a pseudo-spectral method to solve the dynamics, known to be highly efficient and of very high order in comparison to the usual finite differences/elements methods. The coupling between the superconductor and the (real) nematic order parameters is represented by two terms in the free energy: a biquadratic term and a coupling of the nematic order parameter to the covariant derivatives of the superconductor order parameter. Our results show that there is a competing effect: while the former independently of its competitive or cooperative character generates an attractive vortex-vortex interaction, the latter always generates a repulsive interaction.

Temporal Smoothing for Joint Probabilistic People Detection in a Depth Sensor Network

description: Wide-area indoor people detection in a network of depth sensors is the basis for many applications, e.g. people counting or customer behavior analysis. Existing probabilistic methods use approximative stochastic inference to estimate the marginal probability distribution of people present in the scene for a single time step. In this work we investigate how the temporal context, given by a time series of multi-view depth observations, can be exploited to regularize a mean-field variational inference optimization process. We present a probabilistic grid based dynamic model and deduce the corresponding mean-field update regulations to effectively approximate the joint probability distribution of people present in the scene across space and time. Our experiments show that the proposed temporal regularization leads to a more robust estimation of the desired probability distribution and increases the detection performance.

description: Physics of nonlinear waves on variable backgrounds and the relevant mathematical analysis continues to be the challenging aspect of the study. In this work, we consider a (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear model describing the dynamics of {water waves} and construct nonlinear wave solutions on spatio-temporally controllable backgrounds for the first time by using a simple mathematical tool auto-Bäcklund transformation. Mainly, we unravel physically interesting features to control and manipulate the dynamics of nonlinear waves through the background. Adapting an exponential function and general polynomial of degree two as initial seed solutions, we construct single kink-soliton and rogue wave, respectively. We choose arbitrary periodic, localized and combined wave backgrounds by incorporating Jacobi elliptic functions and investigate the modulation of these two nonlinear waves with a clear analysis and graphical demonstrations. The solutions derived in this work give us sufficient freedom to generate exotic nonlinear coherent structures on variable backgrounds and open up an interesting direction to explore the dynamics of various other nonlinear waves propagating through inhomogeneous media.

description: We introduce a procedure to generate supersinglets, the multipartite generalization of angular momentum singlet states. A supersinglet is defined as a total spin zero state consisting of $ N $ spin-$ j $ particles. They are highly entangled and have zero spin variance in any direction, and as such are potentially useful for quantum metrology. Our scheme is based on projective measurements that measure the collective spin of the whole spin ensemble. A local unitary rotation is applied conditionally on the measurement outcome, such as to maximize the probability of obtaining spin zero on the subsequent measurement. The sequence is repeated in the $ z $- and $ x $-basis until convergence is obtained towards the supersinglet state. Our sequence works regardless of the initial state, and no postselection is required. Due to the use of strong projective measurements, very fast convergence towards zero spin variance is obtained. We discuss an example implementation using quantum nondemolition measurements in atomic ensembles, and perform numerical simulations to demonstrate the procedure.

Nonthermal $CP$ violation in soft leptogenesis

description: Soft leptogenesis is a mechanism which generates the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe via the out-of-equilibrium decays of heavy sneutrinos in which soft supersymmetry breaking terms play two important roles: they provide the required $CP$ violation and give rise to the mass splitting between otherwise degenerate sneutrino mass eigenstates within a single generation. This mechanism is interesting because it can be successful at the lower temperature regime $T \lesssim 10^9$ GeV in which the conflict with the overproduction of gravitinos can possibly be avoided. In earlier works, the leading $CP$ violation is found to be nonzero only if finite temperature effects are included. By considering generic soft trilinear couplings, we find two interesting consequences: (1) the leading $CP$ violation can be nonzero even at zero temperature realizing nonthermal $CP$ violation, and (2) the $CP$ violation is sufficient even far away from the resonant regime allowing soft supersymmetry breaking parameters to assume natural values at around the TeV scale. We discuss phenomenological constraints on such scenarios and conclude that the contributions to charged lepton flavor violating processes are close to the sensitivities of present and future experiments.

description: The spread of Coronavirus Disease-2019 worldwide necessitates the development of accurate identification methods and the determination of genetic relatedness. The result of genomic methods involving nucleotide alignment informed the considerations of several alignment-free techniques for virus detection. This paper presents a genomic sequence identification model, developed based on Genomic Signal Processing (GSP), deep learning, and genomic datasets of Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoV (SARS-CoV), and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome CoV (MERS-CoV). Our results showed that the Z-Curve images for the three viral strains depicted high visual similarities in texture and color, thus making it difficult to differentiate the strains by visual inspection. However, the homogeneity distance showed that SARS-CoV-2 is closer to SAR-CoV than MERS-CoV. Following a validation accuracy of 98.33%, it became clear that Z-Curve images for MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 have distinct features after transformation by the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) classifier. The divergence in texture and color reflects genetic variation among the strains, which is too insignificant for differentiation via visual inspection. Our results showed that higher layers of CNN amplify aspects of input images that are critical for discrimination, thereby confirming the importance of deep learning and GSP in accurate viral detection.

description: Nambu-Goldstone modes associated with (topological) defects such as vortices and domain walls in (super)fluids are known to possess quadratic/non-integer dispersion relations in finite/infinite-size systems. Here, we report interpolating formulas connecting the dispersion relations in finite- and infinite-size systems for Kelvin modes along a quantum vortex and ripplons on a domain wall in superfluids. Our method can provide not only the dispersion relations but also the explicit forms of quasiparticle wavefunctions $(u,v)$. We find a complete agreement between the analytical formulas and numerical simulations. All these formulas are derived in a fully analytical way, and hence not empirical ones. We also discuss common structures in the derivation of these formulas and speculate on the general procedure.

description: La tesi pone al centro lo studio completo della figura di Guido Bigarelli, scultore comasco attivo principalmente tra Pisa, Lucca e Pistoia nel corso dei decenni centrali del XIII secolo (1220 circa ? 1257). L?artista � stato messo a fuoco sia sotto il profilo individuale, indagandone, cio�, la personalit�, i modelli e l?evoluzione dello stile, sia dal punto di vista delle relazioni: ruolo del maestro all?interno di una bottega precisamente connotata in quanto a linguaggio e prassi operativa, rapporti e interazioni sviluppate entro la comunit� di artefici lombardi operanti nella Toscana occidentale (in particolare a Lucca), di cui si conoscono attestazioni dall?ultimo decennio del XII secolo. Lo studio ha preso avvio dall?esame dei contesti della scultura bigarelliana, sotto gli aspetti del sostrato di cultura figurativa pregressa, della natura dell?intervento, dell?organizzazione del cantiere e dei rapporti di committenza. L?indagine � stata condotta con l?intento di chiarire il percorso, artistico e geografico, dell?artista, e il suo inquadramento economico-sociale. Si � giunti, per questa via, a una complessiva rivalutazione delle fonti del linguaggio di Guido Bigarelli, dei suoi termini di confronto e della personale sintesi stilistica che lo scultore mette in opera a partire dai suoi modelli.
La riflessione sulla parabola artistica di Guido Bigarelli � stata affrontata di pari passo alla redazione di un catalogo completo e aggiornato della sua opera, strumento fondamentale e imprescindibile su cui basare la conoscenza dell?artista, di cui fino ad ora si era avvertita la mancanza.

description: The optimal control problem for the kinematic bicycle model is considered where the trajectories are required to satisfy the safety constraints in the continuous-time sense. Based on the differential flatness property of the model, necessary and sufficient conditions in the flat space are provided to guarantee safety in the state space. The optimal control problem is relaxed to the problem of solving three second-order cone programs (SOCPs) sequentially, which find the safe path, the trajectory duration, and the speed profile, respectively. Solutions of the three SOCPs together provide a sub-optimal solution to the original optimal control problem. Simulation examples and comparisons with state-of-the-art optimal control solvers are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

description: The temperature evolution of the resonant Raman scattering from high-quality bilayer 2H-MoS$_{2}$ encapsulated in hexagonal BN flakes is presented. The observed resonant Raman scattering spectrum as initiated by the laser energy of 1.96 eV, close to the A excitonic resonance, shows rich and distinct vibrational features that are otherwise not observed in non-resonant scattering. The appearance of 1$^{st}$ and 2$^{nd}$ order phonon modes is unambiguously observed in a broad range of temperatures from 5 K to 320 K. The spectrum includes the Raman-active modes, $i.e.$ E$_\textrm{1g}^{2}$($Γ$) and A$_\textrm{1g}$($Γ$) along with their Davydov-split counterparts, $i.e.$ E$_\textrm{1u}$($Γ$) and B$_\textrm{1u}$($Γ$). The temperature evolution of the Raman scattering spectrum brings forward key observations, as the integrated intensity profiles of different phonon modes show diverse trends. The Raman-active A$_{1g}$($Γ$) mode, which dominates the Raman scattering spectrum at $T$=5~K quenches with increasing temperature. Surprisingly, at room temperature the B$_\textrm{1u}$($Γ$) mode, which is infrared-active in the bilayer, is substantially stronger than its nominally Raman-active A$_\textrm{1g}$($Γ$) counterpart.

description: By studying quantum information masking in non-Hermitian quantum systems, we show that mutually orthogonal quantum states can be deterministically masked, while an arbitrary set of quantum states cannot be masked in non-Hermitian quantum systems. We further demonstrate that a set of linearly independent states which are mutually $η$-orthogonal can be deterministically masked by a pseudo-unitary operator. Moreover, we study robustness of quantum information masking against noisy environments. The robustness of deterministic and probabilistic quantum information masking under different quantum noise channels is analyzed in detail. Accordingly, we propose and discuss the $r$-uniform probabilistic quantum information masking in multipartite systems.

description: The Real Extended Bialas-Bzdak (ReBB) model is shown here to describe, in the $0.37 \le -t \le 1.2$ GeV$^2$ region, the proton-proton elastic differential cross section data published by the TOTEM Collaboration at LHC at $\sqrt{s} = 8 $ TeV center of mass energy. In this kinematic range, corresponding to the diffractive minimum-maximum region, a model-dependent Odderon signal higher than 18 $σ$ is obtained by comparing the ReBB model prediction for the $p\bar{p}$ elastic differential cross section to this TOTEM measured $pp$ elastic differential cross section data at 8 TeV. However, when combining this signal with the Odderon signals from the ReBB model in the $0.37 \leq -t \leq 1.2$ GeV$^2$ four-momentum-transfer range at $\sqrt{s} = $ 1.96, 2.76 and 7 TeV, it turns out that the combined significance is dominated not by the new 8 TeV but by that of earlier 7 TeV TOTEM data, that carry an even larger Odderon effect. Thus, in any practical terms, within the framework of the ReBB model, the Odderon signal in the limited $0.37 \leq -t \leq 1.2$ GeV$^2$ and $1.96 \leq \sqrt{s} \leq 8$ TeV kinematic region is not a probability, but a certainty. We show also that the $H(x)$ scaling version of the ReBB model works reasonably well at 8 TeV in the $0.37 \le -t \le 0.97$ GeV$^2$ region.

Formalizing evasion attacks against machine learning security detectors
Creators: name: DEMETRIO, LUCA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: Recent work has shown that adversarial examples can bypass machine learning-based threat detectors relying on static analysis by applying minimal perturbations.
To preserve malicious functionality, previous attacks either apply trivial manipulations (e.g. padding), potentially limiting their effectiveness, or require running computationally-demanding validation steps to discard adversarial variants that do not correctly execute in sandbox environments.
While machine learning systems for detecting SQL injections have been proposed in the literature, no attacks have been tested against the proposed solutions to assess the effectiveness and robustness of these methods.
In this thesis, we overcome these limitations by developing RAMEn, a unifying framework that (i) can express attacks for different domains, (ii) generalizes previous attacks against machine learning models, and (iii) uses functions that preserve the functionality of manipulated objects.
We provide new attacks for both Windows malware and SQL injection detection scenarios by exploiting the format used for representing these objects.
To show the efficacy of RAMEn, we provide experimental results of our strategies in both white-box and black-box settings.
The white-box attacks against Windows malware detectors show that it takes only the 2% of the input size of the target to evade detection with ease.
To further speed up the black-box attacks, we overcome the issues mentioned before by presenting a novel family of black-box attacks that are both query-efficient and functionality-preserving, as they rely on the injection of benign content, which will never be executed, either at the end of the malicious file, or within some newly-created sections, encoded in an algorithm called GAMMA.
We also evaluate whether GAMMA transfers to other commercial antivirus solutions, and surprisingly find that it can evade many commercial antivirus engines.
For evading SQLi detectors, we create WAF-A-MoLE, a mutational fuzzer that that exploits random mutations of the input samples, keeping alive only the most promising ones.
WAF-A-MoLE is capable of defeating detectors built with different architectures by using the novel practical manipulations we have proposed.
To facilitate reproducibility and future work, we open-source our framework and corresponding attack implementations.
We conclude by discussing the limitations of current machine learning-based malware detectors, along with potential mitigation strategies based on embedding domain knowledge coming from subject-matter experts naturally into the learning process.

description:  We study whether employment prospects of old and young workers differ after a plant closure. Using Austrian administrative data, we show that old and young workers face similar displacement costs in terms of employment in the long-run, but old workers lose considerably more initially and gain later. We interpret these findings using a search model with retirement as an absorbing state, that we calibrate to match the observed patterns. Our finding is that the dynamics of relative employment losses of old versus young workers after a displacement are mainly explained by different opportunities of transition into retirement. In contrast, differences in layoff rates and job offer arrival rates cannot explain these patterns. Our results support the idea that retirement incentives, more than weak labor demand, are responsible for the low employment rates of older workers.

description: In this paper we show the existence of a weak solution for a compressible single-phase Stokes flow with mass transport accounting for the degeneracy and the singular behavior of a density-dependent viscosity. The analysis is based on an implicit time-discrete scheme and a Galerkin-approximation in space. Convergence of the discrete solutions is obtained thanks to a diffusive regularization of p-Laplacian type in the transport equation that allows for refined compactness arguments on subdomains.
Radiative transfer in stars by feebly interacting bosons

description: Starting from first principles, we study radiative transfer by new feebly-interacting bosons (FIBs) such as axions, axion-like particles (ALPs), dark photons, and others. Our key simplification is to include only boson emission or absorption (including decay), but not scattering between different modes of the radiation field. Based on a given distribution of temperature and FIB absorption rate in a star, we derive explicit volume-integral expressions for the boson luminosity, reaching from the free-streaming to the strong-trapping limit. The latter is seen explicitly to correspond to quasi-thermal emission from a "FIB sphere" according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law. Our results supersede expressions and approximations found in the recent literature on FIB emission from a supernova core and, for radiatively unstable FIBs, provide explicit expressions for the nonlocal ("ballistic") transfer of energy recently discussed in horizontal-branch stars.

description: The development of integrated semiconductor lasers has miniaturized traditional bulky laser systems, enabling a wide range of photonic applications. A progression from pure III-V based lasers to III-V/external cavity structures has harnessed low-loss waveguides in different material systems, leading to significant improvements in laser coherence and stability. Despite these successes, however, key functions remain absent. In this work, we address a critical missing function by integrating the Pockels effect into a semiconductor laser. Using a hybrid integrated III-V/Lithium Niobate structure, we demonstrate several essential capabilities that have not existed in previous integrated lasers. These include a record-high frequency modulation speed of 2 exahertz/s (2.0$\times$10$^{18}$ Hz/s) and fast switching at 50 MHz, both of which are made possible by integration of the electro-optic effect. Moreover, the device co-lases at infrared and visible frequencies via the second-harmonic frequency conversion process, the first such integrated multi-color laser. Combined with its narrow linewidth and wide tunability, this new type of integrated laser holds promise for many applications including LiDAR, microwave photonics, atomic physics, and AR/VR.

description: A computational approach is adapted to analyze the parameter identifiability of a compartmental model. The model is intended to describe the progression of the COVID-19 pandemic in Chile during the initial phase in early 2020 when government declared quarantine measures. The computational approach to analyze the structural and practical identifiability is applied in two parts, one for synthetic data and another for some Chilean regional data. The first part defines the identifiable parameter sets when these recover the true parameters used to create the synthetic data. The second part compares the results derived from synthetic data, estimating the identifiable parameter sets from regional Chilean epidemic data. Experiments provide evidence of the loss of identifiability if some initial conditions are estimated, the period of time used to fit is before the peak, and if a significant proportion of the population is involved in quarantine periods.
AGN-stimulated Cooling of Hot Gas in Elliptical Galaxies

description: We study the impact of relatively weak AGN feedback on the interstellar medium of intermediate and massive elliptical galaxies. We find that the AGN activity, while globally heating the ISM, naturally stimulates some degree of hot gas cooling on scales of several kpc. This process generates the persistent presence of a cold ISM phase, with mass ranging between 10$^4$ and $\gtrsim$ 5 $\times$ 10$^7$ M$_\odot$, where the latter value is appropriate for group centered, massive galaxies. Widespread cooling occurs where the ratio of cooling to free-fall time before the activation of the AGN feedback satisfies $t_{cool}/t_{ff} \lesssim 70$, that is we find a less restrictive threshold than commonly quoted in the literature. This process helps explaining the body of observations of cold gas (both ionized and neutral/molecular) in Ellipticals and, perhaps, the residual star formation detected in many early-type galaxies. The amount and distribution of the off-center cold gas vary irregularly with time. The cold ISM velocity field is irregular, initially sharing the (outflowing) turbulent hot gas motion. Typical velocity dispersions of the cold gas lie in the range 100-200 km/s. Freshly generated cold gas often forms a cold outflow and can appear kinematically misaligned with respect to the stars. We also follow the dust evolution in the hot and cold gas. We find that the internally generated cold ISM has a very low dust content, with representative values of the dust-to-gas ratio of 10$^{-4}$- 10$^{-5}$. Therefore, this cold gas can escape detection in the traditional dust-absorption maps.

description: This work proposes an approach for the optimal sizing of a cylindrical heaving wave energy converter (WEC). The approach is based on maximising the absorbed power density (APD) of the buoy, with the diameter being the decision variable. Furthermore, two types of buoy shapes were compared to get the best option. The two buoy shapes are the cone cylinder buoy (CCB) and the hemisphere cylinder buoy (HCB). The aim was therefore to determine the best shape and as well as the optimal size of the cylindrical point absorber. To validate the approach, the simulation was performed under Durban (South Africa) sea characteristics of 3.6 m wave significant height and 8.5 s peak period, using the openWEC simulator. The buoy diameter range considered was from 0.5 m to 10 m for both shapes. Simulation results revealed that a diameter of 1 m was the optimal solution for both buoy shapes. Furthermore, the APD method revealed that the HCB was more efficient than the CCB. The power density of the HCB was 1070 W/m2, which was almost double the power density of the CCB, while the two shapes present almost the same absorbed power.

description: The Milky Way stellar halo contains relics of ancient mergers that tell the story of our Galaxy's formation. Some of them are identified due to their similarity in energy, actions and chemistry, referred to as the "chemodynamical space", and are often attributed to distinct merger events. It is also known that our Galaxy went through a significant merger event that shaped the local stellar halo during its first Gyr. Previous studies using $N$-body only and cosmological hydrodynamical simulations have shown that such single massive merger can produce several "signatures" in the chemodynamical space, which can potentially be misinterpreted as distinct merger events. Motivated by these, in this work we use a subset of the GASTRO, library which consists of several SPH+$N$-body models of single accretion event in a Milky Way-like galaxy. Here, we study models with orbital properties similar to the main merger event of our Galaxy and explore the implications to known stellar halo substructures. We find that: $i.$ supernova feedback efficiency influences the satellite's structure and orbital evolution, resulting in distinct chemodynamical features for models with the same initial conditions, $ii.$ very retrograde high energy stars are the most metal-poor of the accreted dwarf galaxy and could be misinterpreted as a distinct merger $iii.$ the most bound stars are more metal-rich in our models, the opposite of what is observed in the Milky Way, suggesting a secondary massive merger, and finally $iv.$ our models can reconcile other known substructures to an unique progenitor.
