description: We analyze the classical limit of kinematic loop quantum gravity in which the diffeomorphism and hamiltonian constraints are ignored. We show that there are no quantum states in which the primary variables of the loop approach, namely the SU(2) holonomies along {\em all} possible loops, approximate their classical counterparts. At most a countable number of loops must be specified. To preserve spatial covariance, we choose this set of loops to be based on physical lattices specified by the quasi-classical states themselves. We construct ``macroscopic'' operators based on such lattices and propose that these operators be used to analyze the classical limit. Thus, our aim is to approximate classical data using states in which appropriate macroscopic operators have low quantum fluctuations. Although, in principle, the holonomies of `large' loops on these lattices could be used to analyze the classical limit, we argue that it may be simpler to base the analysis on an alternate set of ``flux'' based operators. We explicitly construct candidate quasi-classical states in 2 spatial dimensions and indicate how these constructions may generalize to 3d. We discuss the less robust aspects of our proposal with a view towards possible modifications. Finally, we show that our proposal also applies to the diffeomorphism invariant Rovelli model which couples a matter reference system to the Hussain Kucha{\v r} model.

A gauge theoretical view of the charge concept in Einstein gravity

description: We will discuss some analogies between internal gauge theories and gravity in order to better understand the charge concept in gravity. A dimensional analysis of gauge theories in general and a strict definition of elementary, monopole, and topological charges are applied to electromagnetism and to teleparallelism, a gauge theoretical formulation of Einstein gravity. As a result we inevitably find that the gravitational coupling constant has dimension $\hbar/l^2$, the mass parameter of a particle dimension $\hbar/l$, and the Schwarzschild mass parameter dimension l (where l means length). These dimensions confirm the meaning of mass as elementary and as monopole charge of the translation group, respectively. In detail, we find that the Schwarzschild mass parameter is a quasi-electric monopole charge of the time translation whereas the NUT parameter is a quasi-magnetic monopole charge of the time translation as well as a topological charge. The Kerr parameter and the electric and magnetic charges are interpreted similarly. We conclude that each elementary charge of a Casimir operator of the gauge group is the source of a (quasi-electric) monopole charge of the respective Killing vector.

description: In industrial machine type communications, an increasing number of wireless devices communicate under reliability, latency, and confidentiality constraints, simultaneously. From information theory, it is known that wiretap codes can asymptotically achieve reliability (vanishing block error rate (BLER) at the legitimate receiver Bob) while also achieving secrecy (vanishing information leakage (IL) to an eavesdropper Eve). However, under finite block length, there exists a tradeoff between the BLER at Bob and the IL at Eve. In this work, we propose a flexible wiretap code design for degraded Gaussian wiretap channels under finite block length, which can change the operating point on the Pareto boundary of the tradeoff between BLER and IL given specific code parameters. To attain this goal, we formulate a multi-objective programming problem, which takes the BLER at Bob and the IL at Eve into account. We approximate the BLER by the mean square error and the IL by schemes based on Jensen’s inequality and the Taylor expansion and then solve the optimization problem by neural network autoencoders. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can find codes outperforming polar wiretap codes with respect to both BLER and IL simultaneously. We show that the codes found by the autoencoders could be implemented with real modulation schemes with only small losses in performance.

description: We propose the mechanism of quantum creation of the open Universe in the observable range of values of $Ω$. This mechanism is based on the no-boundary quantum state with the Hawking-Turok instanton applied to the model with a strong nonminimal coupling of the inflaton field. We develop the slow roll perturbation expansion for the instanton solution and obtain a nontrivial contribution to the classical instanton action. The interplay of this classical contribution with the loop effects due to quantum effective action generates the probability distribution peak with necessary parameters of the inflation stage without invoking any anthropic considerations. In contrast with a similar mechanism for closed models, existing only for the tunneling quantum state of the Universe, the observationally justified open inflation originates from the no-boundary cosmological wavefunction.

description: Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) infect insects and reproduce within the host cadaver. The nematodes use chemotaxis to assist in host-finding. However, the chemotaxis of nematode species in response to insects previously infected by con- and hetero-specific EPN in a sand context has rarely been reported. Our aim was to address the response of Steinernema carpocapsae All (Sc) to Galleria mellonella cadavers infected by con- or hetero-specific EPNs (Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HB1, S. feltiae SN, S. rarum 17 C&E) in sand via chemotaxis assays. Additionally, the effect of different time points post-infection was also evaluated. Results indicated that previously infected G. mellonella larvae repelled infective juveniles (IJs) of Sc (p < 0.05) regardless of the time point post-infection and EPN species (con- or hetero-specific) and had a lower chemotaxis index as compared to that of no larvae addition in both sides. Moreover, it was found that for each of four tested EPN species, EPNs infected insect cadavers released dimethyl disulphide, which was identified by solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled to gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). We found that dimethyl disulphide acted as a repellent to Sc infective juveniles and reached a significant effect at the level of 0.106 mol/L. Our findings could provide a better understanding of movement behaviour of EPN infective juveniles in response to insect resources in the presence of con- or hetero-specific EPNs.

description: Our knowledge of the lower solar atmosphere is mainly obtained from spectropolarimetric observations, which are often carried out in the red or infrared spectral range and almost always cover only a single or a few spectral lines. Here we compare the quality of Stokes inversions of only a few spectral lines with many-line inversions. We investigate the feasibility of spectropolarimetry in the short-wavelength range, 3000 Å - 4300 Å, where the line density but also the photon noise are considerably higher than in the red, so that many-line inversions could be particularly attractive in that wavelength range. This is also timely because this wavelength range will be the focus of a new spectropolarimeter in the third science flight of the balloon-borne solar observatory SUNRISE. For an ensemble of MHD atmospheres we synthesize exemplarily spectral regions around 3140 Å, 4080 Å, and 6302 Å. The spectral coverage is chosen such that at a spectral resolving power of 150000 the spectra can be recorded by a 2K detector. The synthetic Stokes profiles are degraded with a typical photon noise and afterwards inverted. The atmospheric parameters of the inversion of noisy profiles are compared with the inversion of noise-free spectra. We find that significantly more information can be obtained from many-line inversions than from a traditionally used inversion of only a few spectral lines. We further find that information on the upper photosphere can be significantly more reliably obtained at short wavelengths. In the mid and lower photosphere, the many-line approach at 4080 Å provides equally good results as the many-line approach at 6302 Å for the magnetic field strength and the LOS velocity, while the temperature determination is even more precise by a factor of three. We conclude that many-line spectropolarimetry should be the preferred option in the future.

description: It is well known, that wiretap codes can be used to protect against a potential eavesdropper in a communication scenario. Asymptotically, they can achieve both vanishing decoding error probability at the legitimate receiver and vanishing leaked information to an eavesdropper. However, under finite blocklength, this does not hold and there is a tradeoff between different code parameters. In this work, it is shown, how machine learning algorithms can be utilized by an eavesdropper to decode finite-blocklength polar wiretap codes successfully. Neural networks and support vector machines are implemented as channel decoders and compared to a reference polar decoder. Simulation results show that the support vector machine decoders can outperform the reference decoder with respect to the bit error ratio.

description: We consider an ideal gas of infinitely rigid rods near a perfectly repulsive wall, and show that the interfacial tension of a surface with rods on one side is lower when the surface bends towards the rods. Surprisingly we find that rods on both sides of surfaces also lower the energy when the surface bends. We compute the partition functions of rods confined to spherical and cylindrical open shells, and conclude that spherical shells repel rods, whereas cylindrical shells (for thickness of the shell on the order of the rod-length) attract them. The role of flexibility is investigated by considering chains composed of two rigid segments.

description: The unconstrained reduced action corresponding to the dynamics of scalar fluctuations about the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) background is derived using Dirac's method of description of singular Lagrangian systems. The results are applied to so-called negative mode problem in description of tunneling transitions with gravity. With our special choice of physical variable, the kinetic term of the reduced action has a conventional signature for a wide class of models. In this representation, the existence of a negative mode justifying the false vacuum decay picture turns out to be manifest. We also explain how the present result becomes consistent with the previously proved ``no negative mode (supercritical supercurvature mode) theorem''.

description: New sets of functions with arbitrary large finite cardinality are constructed for two-electron atoms. Functions from these sets exactly satisfy the Kato's cusp conditions. The new functions are special linear combinations of Hylleraas- and/or Kinoshita-type terms. Standard variational calculation, leading to matrix eigenvalue problem, can be carried out to calculate the energies of the system. There is no need for optimization with constraints to satisfy the cusp conditions. In the numerical examples the ground state energy of the He atom is considered.

description: With an increasing number of wireless devices, the risk of being eavesdropped increases as well. From information theory, it is well known that wiretap codes can asymptotically achieve vanishing decoding error probability at the legitimate receiver while also achieving vanishing leakage to eavesdroppers. However, under finite blocklength, there exists a tradeoff among different parameters of the transmission. In this work, we propose a flexible wiretap code design for Gaussian wiretap channels under finite blocklength by neural network autoencoders. We show that the proposed scheme has higher flexibility in terms of the error rate and leakage tradeoff, compared to the traditional codes.

description: Background Standardised clinical outcome measures are urgently needed for the surveillance of influenza and influenza‐like illness (ILI) based on individual patient data (IPD). Objectives We report a multicentre prospective cohort using a predefined disease severity score in routine care. Patients/Methods The Vienna Vaccine Safety initiative (ViVI) Disease Severity Score (“ViVI Score”) was made available as an android‐based mobile application to three paediatric hospitals in Berlin and Athens between 2013 and 2016. Healthcare professionals assessed ILI patients at the point of care including severity, risk factors and use of antibiotics/antivirals/vaccines. RT‐PCR for influenza A/B viruses was performed at the Hellenic Pasteur Institute and the Robert Koch Institute. PCR testing was blinded to severity scoring and vice versa. Results A total of 1615 children aged 0‐5 years (54.4% males) were assessed at the three sites. The mean age was 1.7 years (SD 1.5; range 0‐5.9). The success rate (completion of the scoring without disruption to the ER workflow) was 100%. ViVI Disease Severity Scores ranged from 0 to 35 (mean 13.72). Disease severity in the Berlin Cohort was slightly higher (mean 15.26) compared to the Athens Cohorts (mean 10.86 and 11.13). The administration of antibiotics was most prevalent in the Berlin Cohort, with 41.2% on antibiotics (predominantly cefuroxime) as opposed to only 0.5% on neuraminidase inhibitors. Overall, Risk‐adjusted ViVI Scores were significantly linked to the prescription of both, antibiotics and antivirals. Conclusions The Risk‐adjusted ViVI Score enables a precision medicine approach to managing ILI in multicentre settings. Using mobile applications, severity data will be obtained in real time with important implications for the evaluation of antiviral/vaccine use.

description: Some of the parameters we call ``constants of Nature'' may in fact be variables related to the local values of some dynamical fields. During inflation, these variables are randomized by quantum fluctuations. In cases when the variable in question (call it $χ$) takes values in a continuous range, all thermalized regions in the universe are statistically equivalent, and a gauge invariant procedure for calculating the probability distribution for $χ$ is known. This is the so-called ``spherical cutoff method''. In order to find the probability distribution for $χ$ it suffices to consider a large spherical patch in a single thermalized region. Here, we generalize this method to the case when the range of $χ$ is discontinuous and there are several different types of thermalized region. We first formulate a set of requirements that any such generalization should satisfy, and then introduce a prescription that meets all the requirements. We finally apply this prescription to calculate the relative probability for different bubble universes in the open inflation scenario.

description: The design of reliable and secure codes with finite block length is an important requirement for industrial machine type communications. In this work, we develop an autoencoder for the multi-mode fiber wiretap channel taking into account the error performance at the legitimate receiver and the information leakage at potential eavesdroppers. The estimate of the mutual information leakage includes AWGN and fading channels. The code design is tailored to the specific channel setup where the eavesdropper experiences a mode dependent loss. Numerical simulations illustrate the performance and show a Pareto improvement of the proposed scheme compared to the state-of-the-art polar wiretap codes.

The statistical properties of stars and their dependence on metallicity

description: We report the statistical properties of stars and brown dwarfs obtained from four radiation hydrodynamical simulations of star cluster formation, the metallicities of which span a range from 1/100 to 3 times the solar value. Unlike previous similar investigations of the effects of metallicity on stellar properties, these new calculations treat dust and gas temperatures separately and include a thermochemical model of the diffuse interstellar medium. The more advanced treatment of the interstellar medium gives rise to very different gas and dust temperature distributions in the four calculations, with lower metallicities generally resulting in higher temperatures and a delay in the onset of star formation. Despite this, once star formation begins, all four calculations produce stars at similar rates and many of the statistical properties of their stellar populations are difficult to distinguish from each other and from those of observed stellar systems. We do find, however, that the greater cooling rates at high gas densities due to the lower opacities at low metallicities increase the fragmentation on small spatial scales (disc, filament, and core fragmentation). This produces an anti-correlation between the close binary fraction of low-mass stars and metallicity similar to that which is observed, and an increase in the fraction of protostellar mergers at low metallicities. There are also indications that at lower metallicity close binaries may have lower mass ratios and the abundance of brown dwarfs to stars may increase slightly. However, these latter two effects are quite weak and need to be confirmed with larger samples.

description: The phenomenon of string spreading on the black hole horizon, as originally discussed by Susskind, is considered in the {\it exact} curved Schwarzschild background. We consider an oscillating string encircling the black hole and contracting towards the horizon. We then compute the angular and radial spreading of the string, as seen by a static observer at spatial infinity using fixed finite resolution time. Within our case study we find that there is indeed a spreading of the string in the angular direction, such that the string eventually covers the whole horizon. However, regarding the radial direction, we find that Lorentz-contraction suppresses the radial string spreading.

The influence of the distribution of cosmic star formation at different metallicities on the properties of merging double compact objects

description: Binaries that merge within the local Universe originate from progenitor systems that formed at different times and in various environments. The efficiency of formation of double compact objects is highly sensitive to metallicity of the star formation. Therefore, to confront the theoretical predictions with observational limits resulting from gravitational waves observations one has to account for the formation and evolution of progenitor stars in the chemically evolving Universe. In particular, this requires knowledge of the distribution of cosmic star formation rate at different metallicities and times, probed by redshift (SFR(Z,z)). We investigate the effect of the assumed SFR(Z,z) on the properties of merging double compact objects, in particular on their merger rate densities. Using a set of binary evolution models from Chruslinska et al. (2018) we demonstrate that the reported tension between the merger rates of different types of double compact objects and current observational limits in some cases can be resolved if a SFR(Z,z) closer to that expected based on observations of local star-forming galaxies is used, without the need for changing the assumptions about the evolution of progenitor stars of different masses. This highlights the importance of finding tighter constraints on SFR(Z,z) and understanding the associated uncertainties.

description: We consider artificial neural networks based energy-efficient power control for interference networks. The influence of different training set sizes and data augmentation is evaluated. It is shown that as few as 15,000 data points obtained from 300 channel realizations are sufficient to adequately predict almost globally optimal power allocations in a 4 user network. Moreover, we observe that, especially for larger scenarios, data augmentation is essential for successful training and far outweighs the effect of increasing the training data set size.

A parameterized proximal point algorithm for separable convex optimization

description: In this paper, we develop a parameterized proximal point algorithm (P-PPA) for solving a class of separable convex programming problems subject to linear and convex constraints. The proposed algorithm is provable to be globally convergent with a worst-case O(1/t) convergence rate, wheret denotes the iteration number. By properly choosing the algorithm parameters, numerical experiments on solving a sparse optimization problem arising from statistical learning show that our P-PPA could perform significantly better than other state-of-the-art methods, such as the alternating direction method of multipliers and the relaxed proximal point algorithm.
Identifying Clusters on a Discrete Periodic Lattice via Machine Learning

description: Given the ubiquity of lattice models in physics, it is imperative for researchers to possess robust methods for quantifying clusters on the lattice --- whether they be Ising spins or clumps of molecules. Inspired by biophysical studies, we present Python code for handling clusters on a 2D periodic lattice. Properties of individual clusters, such as their area, can be obtained with a few function calls. Our code invokes an unsupervised machine learning method called hierarchical clustering, which is simultaneously effective for the present problem and simple enough for non-experts to grasp qualitatively. Moreover, our code transparently merges clusters neighboring each other across periodic boundaries using breadth-first search (BFS), an algorithm well-documented in computer science pedagogy. The fact that our code is written in Python --- instead of proprietary languages --- further enhances its value for reproducible science.

description: Unreliable fading wireless channels are the main challenge for strict performance guarantees in mobile communications. Diversity schemes including massive number of antennas, huge spectrum bands and multi-connectivity links are applied to improve the outage performance. The success of these approaches relies heavily on the joint distribution of the underlying fading channels. In this work, we consider the ε-outage capacity of slowly fading wireless diversity channels and provide lower and upper bounds for fixed marginal distributions of the individual channels. This answers the question about the best and worst case outage probability achievable over n fading channels with a given distribution, e.g., Rayleigh fading, but not necessarily statistically independent. Interestingly, the best-case joint distribution enables achieving a zero-outage capacity greater than zero without channel state information at the transmitter for n ≥ 2. All results are specialized to Rayleigh fading and compared to the standard assumption of independent and identically distributed fading component channels. The results show a significant impact of the joint distribution and the gap between worst- and best-case can be arbitrarily large.

On the warp drive space-time

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: In this paper the problem of the quantum stability of the two-dimensional warp drive spacetime moving with an apparent faster than light velocity is considered. We regard as a maximum extension beyond the event horizon of that spacetime its embedding in a three-dimensional Minkowskian space with the topology of the corresponding Misner space. It is obtained that the interior of the spaceship bubble becomes then a multiply connected nonchronal region with closed timelike curves and that the most natural vacuum allows quantum fluctuations which do not induce any divergent behaviour of the re-normalized stress-energy tensor, even on the event (Cauchy) chronology horizon. In such a case, the horizon encloses closed timelike curves only at scales close to the Planck length, so that the warp drive satisfies the Ford's negative energy-time inequality. Also found is a connection between the superluminal two-dimensional warp drive space and two-dimensional gravitational kinks. This connection allows us to generalize the considered Alcubierre metric to a standard, nonstatic metric which is only describable on two different coordinate patches

Remarks on the Bergmann-Thomsom Expression on Angular Momentum in General Relativity

description: Often it is asserted that only by using of the symmetric Landau-Lifschitz energy-momentum complex one is able to formulate a conserved angular momentum complex in General Relativity ({\bf GR}). Obviously, it is an uncorrect statement. For example, years ago, Bergmann and Thomson have given other, very useful expression on angular momentum. This expression is closely joined to the non-symmetric, Einstein canonical energy-momentum complex. In the paper we review the Bergmann-Thomson angular momentum complex and compare it with that of given by Landau and Lifschitz.

Weak-coupling approach to the semi-infinite Hubbard model: Non-locality of the self-energy

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: The Hubbard model on a semi-infinite three-dimensional lattice is considered to investigate electron-correlation effects at single-crystal surfaces. The standard second-order perturbation theory in the interaction U is used to calculate the electronic self-energy and the quasi-particle density of states (QDOS) in the bulk as well as in the vicinity of the surface. Within a real-space representation we fully account for the non-locality of the self-energy and examine the quality of the local approximation. Numerical results are presented and discussed for the three different low-index surfaces of the simple-cubic lattice. Compared with the bulk significant differences can be found for the top-layer local self-energy, the imaginary part of which is energetically narrowed and has a reduced total weight. The non-local parts of the self-energy Sigma(ij)(E) decrease with increasing distance between the sites i and j. At the surface and for the three-dimensional bulk their decrease is faster than for a two-dimensional lattice. For all surfaces considered the effects of the non-local parts of the self-energy on the QDOS are found to be qualitatively the same as for the bulk: The weight of the quasi-particle resonance at the Fermi energy is lowered while the high-energy charge-excitation peaks become more pronounced. The main structures in the layer-dependent spectra are already recovered within the local approximation; taking into account the nearest-neighbor non-local parts turns out to be an excellent approximation. Due to the reduced coordination number for sites at the very surface, the top-layer QDOS is narrowed. Contrary to the the free (U=0) system, quasi-particle damping results in a comparatively weak layer dependence of the QDOS generally.

description: The probability of a charged particle production by the electric field of a charged black hole depends essentially on the particle energy. This probability is found in the nonrelativistic and ultrarelativistic limits. The range of values for the mass and charge of a black hole is indicated where the discussed mechanism of radiation is dominating over the Hawking one.
