description: RPYS is a bibliometric method originally introduced in order to reveal the historical roots of research topics or fields. RPYS does not identify the most highly cited papers of the publication set being studied (as is usually done by bibliometric analyses in research evaluation), but instead it indicates most frequently referenced publications - each within a specific reference publication year. In this study, we propose to use the method to identify important researchers, institutions and countries in the context of breakthrough research. To demonstrate our approach, we focus on research on physical modeling of Earth's climate and the prediction of global warming as an example. Klaus Hasselmann and Syukuro Manabe were both honored with the Nobel Prize in 2021 for their fundamental contributions to this research. Our results reveal that RPYS is able to identify most important researchers, institutions, and countries. For example, all the relevant authors' institutions are located in the USA. These institutions are either research centers of two US National Research Administrations (NASA and NOAA) or universities: the University of Arizona, Princeton University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the University of Stony Brook.

description: We find the scaling limits of a general class of boundary-to-boundary connection probabilities and multiple interfaces in the critical planar FK-Ising model, thus verifying predictions from the physics literature. We also discuss conjectural formulas using Coulomb gas integrals for the corresponding quantities in general critical planar random-cluster models with cluster-weight $q \in [1,4)$. Thus far, proofs for convergence, including ours, rely on discrete complex analysis techniques and are beyond reach for other values of $q$ than the FK-Ising model ($q=2$). Given the convergence of interfaces, the conjectural formulas for other values of $q$ could be verified similarly with relatively minor technical work. The limit interfaces are variants of $\mathrm{SLE}_κ$ curves (with $κ= 16/3$ for $q=2$). Their partition functions, that give the connection probabilities, also satisfy properties predicted for correlation functions in conformal field theory (CFT), expected to describe scaling limits of critical random-cluster models. We verify these properties for all $q \in [1,4)$, thus providing further evidence of the expected CFT description of these models.

description: The surface of Mars is bombarded by energetic charged particles of solar and cosmic origin with little shielding compared to Earth. As space agencies are planning for crewed missions to the red planet, a major concern is the impact of ionizing radiation on astronaut health. Keeping exposure below acceptable radiation dose levels is crucial for the health of the crew. In this study, our goal is to understand the radiation environment of Mars and describe the main strategies to be adopted to protect astronauts from the harmful impacts of cosmic radiation. Specifically, we investigate the shielding properties of various materials in the Martian radiation field using the Geant4 numerical model, after validating its accuracy with in-situ instrument measurements by MSL RAD. Our results indicate that composite materials such as types of plastic, rubber or synthetic fibers, have a similar response against cosmic rays and are the best shields. Martian regolith has an intermediate behavior and therefore could be used as an additional practical option. We show that the most widely used aluminum could be helpful when combined with other low atomic number materials.

description: Identification of young talented individuals is not an easy task. Citation-based data usually need too long to accrue. In this study, we proposed a method based on bibliometric data for the identification of young talented individuals. Three different indicators and their combinations were used. An older cohort with their first publication between 1999 and 2003 was used to find the most suitable indicator combination. For the validation step, citation impact on the level of individual papers was used. The best performing indicator combination was applied to the time period 2007-2011 for identifying young talented individuals who published their first paper within this time period. We produced a set of 46,200 potential talented individuals.

description: Heterogeneous materials such as biological tissue scatter light in random, yet deterministic, ways. Wavefront shaping can reverse the effects of scattering to enable deep-tissue microscopy. Such methods require either invasive access to the internal field or the ability to numerically compute it. However, calculating the coherent field on a scale relevant to microscopy remains excessively demanding for consumer hardware. Here we show how a recurrent neural network can mirror Maxwell's equations without training. By harnessing public machine learning infrastructure, such \emph{Scattering Network} can compute the $633\;\textrm{nm}$-wavelength light field throughout a $25\;\textrm{mm}^2$ or $176^3\;μ\textrm{m}^3$ scattering volume. The elimination of the training phase cuts the calculation time to a minimum and, importantly, it ensures a fully deterministic solution, free of any training bias. The integration with an open-source electromagnetic solver enables any researcher with an internet connection to calculate complex light-scattering in volumes that are larger by two orders of magnitude

description: In this work, a kernel attention module is presented for the task of EEG-based emotion classification with neural networks. The proposed module utilizes a self-attention mechanism by performing a kernel trick, demanding significantly fewer trainable parameters and computations than standard attention modules. The design also provides a scalar for quantitatively examining the amount of attention assigned during deep feature refinement, hence help better interpret a trained model. Using EEGNet as the backbone model, extensive experiments are conducted on the SEED dataset to assess the module's performance on within-subject classification tasks compared to other SOTA attention modules. Requiring only one extra parameter, the inserted module is shown to boost the base model's mean prediction accuracy up to more than 1\% across 15 subjects. A key component of the method is the interpretability of solutions, which is addressed using several different techniques, and is included throughout as part of the dependency analysis.

description: Employing a matrix mask, a vector subdivision scheme is a fast iterative averaging algorithm to compute refinable vector functions for wavelet methods in numerical PDEs and to produce smooth curves in CAGD. In sharp contrast to the well-studied scalar subdivision schemes, vector subdivision schemes are much less well understood, e.g., Lagrange and (generalized) Hermite subdivision schemes are the only studied vector subdivision schemes in the literature. Because many wavelets used in numerical PDEs are derived from refinable vector functions whose matrix masks are not from Hermite subdivision schemes, it is necessary to introduce and study vector subdivision schemes for any general matrix masks in order to compute wavelets and refinable vector functions efficiently. For a general matrix mask, we show that there is only one meaningful way of defining a vector subdivision scheme. Motivated by vector cascade algorithms and recent study on Hermite subdivision schemes, we shall define a vector subdivision scheme for any arbitrary matrix mask and then we prove that the convergence of the newly defined vector subdivision scheme is equivalent to the convergence of its associated vector cascade algorithm. We also study convergence rates of vector subdivision schemes. The results of this paper not only bridge the gaps and establish intrinsic links between vector subdivision schemes and vector cascade algorithms but also strengthen and generalize current known results on Lagrange and (generalized) Hermite subdivision schemes. Several examples are provided to illustrate the results in this paper on various types of vector subdivision schemes with convergence rates.

description: One-class classification is a fundamental problem in pattern recognition with a wide range of applications. This work presents a semi-supervised quantum machine learning algorithm for such a problem, which we call a variational quantum one-class classifier (VQOCC). The algorithm is suitable for noisy intermediate-scale quantum computing because the VQOCC trains a fully-parameterized quantum autoencoder with a normal dataset and does not require decoding. The performance of the VQOCC is compared with that of the one-class support vector machine (OC-SVM), the kernel principal component analysis (PCA), and the deep convolutional autoencoder (DCAE) using handwritten digit and Fashion-MNIST datasets. The numerical experiment examined various structures of VQOCC by varying data encoding, the number of parameterized quantum circuit layers, and the size of the latent feature space. The benchmark shows that the classification performance of VQOCC is comparable to that of OC-SVM and PCA, although the number of model parameters grows only logarithmically with the data size. The quantum algorithm outperformed DCAE in most cases under similar training conditions. Therefore, our algorithm constitutes an extremely compact and effective machine learning model for one-class classification.

description: In quantum networks an important goal is to reduce resource requirements for the transport and communication of quantum information. Quantum network coding presents a way of doing this by distributing entangled states over a network that would ordinarily exhibit contention. In this work, we study measurement-based quantum network coding (MQNC), which is a protocol particularly suitable for noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. In particular, we develop techniques to adapt MQNC to state-of-the-art superconducting processors and subsequently demonstrate successful teleportation of quantum information, giving new insight into MQNC in this context after a previous study was not able to produce a useful degree of entanglement. The teleportation in our demonstration is shown to occur with fidelity higher than could be achieved via classical means, made possible by considering qubits from a polar cap of the Bloch Sphere. We also present a generalization of MQNC with a simple mapping onto the heavy-hex processor layout and a direct mapping onto a proposed logical error-corrected layout. Our work provides some useful techniques for testing and successfully carrying out quantum network coding.

description: UV observations with Cassini ISS Narrow Angle Camera of Titan's detached haze is an excellent tool to probe its aerosols content without being affected by the gas or the multiple scattering. Unfortunately, its low extent in altitude requires a high resolution calibration and limits the number of images available in the Cassini dataset. However, we show that it is possible to extract on each profile the local maximum of intensity of this layer and confirm its stability at 500±8 km during the period 2005-2007 for all latitudes lower than 45ºN. Using the fractal aggregate scattering model of Tomasko et al. (2008) and a single scattering radiative transfer model, it is possible to derive the optical properties required to explain the observations made at different phase angles. Our results indicates that the aerosols have a monomer radius of 60±3 nm and a bulk radius of 0.31±0.02 μm, while the amount of aggregates along the line of sight is about 3.6±0.6·1010 m-2. Moreover, we demonstrate that these properties are constant within the error bars in the southern hemisphere of Titan over the observed time period. In the northern hemisphere, the corresponding monomer and bulk radius of the aerosols tend to decrease relatively to the southern hemisphere and are associated with a higher tangential opacity. However, the lower number of observations available in this region due to the orbital constraints is a limiting factor in the accuracy of these results. Assuming a fixed homogeneous content we notice that the tangential opacity can fluctuate up to a factor 3 among the observations at the equator. These variations could be linked with short scale temporal and/or longitudinal events changing the local density of the layer.

description: Randomization has been applied to Hamiltonian simulation in a number of ways to improve the accuracy or efficiency of product formulas. Deterministic product formulas are often constructed in a symmetric way to provide accuracy of even order 2k. We show that by applying randomized corrections, it is possible to more than double the order to 4k + 1 (corresponding to a doubling of the order of the error). In practice, applying the corrections in a quantum algorithm requires some structure to the Hamiltonian, for example the Pauli strings as are used in the simulation of quantum chemistry.

description: Let $Ω$ be a set equipped with an equivalence relation $\sim$; we refer to the equivalence classes as blocks of $Ω$. A permutation group $G \le \mathrm{Sym}(Ω)$ is $k$-by-block-transitive if $\sim$ is $G$-invariant, with at least $k$ blocks, and $G$ is transitive on the set of $k$-tuples of points such that no two entries lie in the same block. The action is block-faithful if the action on the set of blocks is faithful. In this article we classify the finite block-faithful $2$-by-block-transitive actions. We also show that for $k \ge 3$, there are no finite block-faithful $k$-by-block-transitive actions with nontrivial blocks.

description: Este documento analiza críticamente las prácticas de investigación sociológica en América Latina, argumentando que existe un grado limitado de reflexión epistemológica y metodológica. Los autores señalan que, pese a que las estrategias multimétodo están cobrando relevancia y los enfoques cualitativos se están volviendo más populares, la investigación sociológica sigue siendo dominada por la lógica positivista-deductiva. Además, cuestionan el uso excesivo de la entrevista como técnica de estudio y analizan cómo la negación del sentido común como fuente de conocimiento puede limitar la creatividad y la profundidad del análisis sociológico. Finalmente, sugieren caminos para reevaluar la epistemología y metodología de la investigación sociológica, que comprenden el uso de la abducción, la lógica de pistas y el reconocimiento de la diversidad de métodos analíticos existentes.

description: Confining materials to two-dimensional forms changes the behavior of electrons and enables new devices. However, most materials are challenging to produce as uniform thin crystals. Here, we present a new synthesis approach where crystals are grown in a nanoscale mold defined by atomically-flat van der Waals (vdW) materials. By heating and compressing bismuth in a vdW mold made of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), we grow ultraflat bismuth crystals less than 10 nanometers thick. Due to quantum confinement, the bismuth bulk states are gapped, isolating intrinsic Rashba surface states for transport studies. The vdW-molded bismuth shows exceptional electronic transport, enabling the observation of Shubnikov-de Haas quantum oscillations originating from the (111) surface state Landau levels, which have eluded previous studies. By measuring the gate-dependent magnetoresistance, we observe multi-carrier quantum oscillations and Landau level splitting, with features originating from both the top and bottom surfaces. Our vdW-mold growth technique establishes a platform for electronic studies and control of bismuth's Rashba surface states and topological boundary modes. Beyond bismuth, the vdW-molding approach provides a low-cost way to synthesize ultrathin crystals and directly integrate them into a vdW heterostructure.

description: How do we, humans, communicate with computers, or computational machines? What are the activities do humans and machines share, what are the meeting points between the two? Eventually, how can we build concepts of these meeting points that leaves space for the proper mode of existence of both humans and machines, without subduing one to the other? Computers are machines that operates on a scale different from humans: the calculus done by machines is too fast and untangible for humans. This is why computers' activities has to be textualized, put into a form that can be understand for humans. For instance into a graphical interface, or a command line. More generally, this article tackles the problem of interface between humans and machines, the way the relation between humans and machines has been conceptualized. It is inspired both by philosophy of the modes of existence – since computers are machines with their own mode of existence – and semiotics, since computers' activities have to be converted in some sort of signs that can be read by humans. First, inspired by Gilbert Simondon, we try to understand the mode of existence of computational machines. By commenting on Turing 1936's seminal article, On Computable Numbers, we show that computational machines are at their core writing machines. But a writing based on calculus, different from the human way of writing. Writing can therefore be understood as a meeting point for humans and machines, provided we give a definition of writing that is large enough to include both humans and machines. Secondly, we examine theories that deals with the relationship between the two, mostly english-speaking theorists of interface (Manovich, Galloway) compared to french semiotics of "les écrits d'écran" ("written writing screens"). We show that both approaches share an anthropocentric conception of machines and/or writing, making the machine a mere instrument fulfilling human needs. Eventually, we propose some elements towards a non-anthropocentric semiotics, by focusing on the notions of interpretation and the spatiality of writing. This non-anthropocentric semiotics is the first step towards a semiotics that would make room for the mode of existence of computational machines, enabling us to renew the way we think our relationship to them.

description: Interfaces of van der Waals (vdW) materials such as graphite and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) exhibit low-friction sliding due to their atomically-flat surfaces and weak vdW bonding. We demonstrate that microfabricated gold also slides with low friction on hBN. This enables the arbitrary post-fabrication repositioning of device features both at ambient conditions as well as in-situ to a measurement cryostat. We demonstrate mechanically-reconfigurable vdW devices where device geometry and position are continuously-tunable parameters. By fabricating slidable top gates on a graphene-hBN device, we produce a mechanically-tunable quantum point contact where electron confinement and edge-state coupling can be continuously modified. Moreover, we combine in-situ sliding with simultaneous electronic measurements to create new types of scanning probe experiments, where gate electrodes and even entire vdW heterostructures devices can be spatially scanned by sliding across a target.

description: We consider solitary wave excitations above the ground state of $F=1$ spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensates (SOBECs). The low energy properties of SOBECs in any of the three branches of the single particle dispersion relation can be described by suitable scalar nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations which we obtain using multiple-scale expansions. This enables us to examine a variety of different configurations, such as dark solitary waves associated with higher energy branches, as well as dark and bright structures in the lowest branch. The lowest branch can also exhibit a ``superstripe'' phase that supports solitary waves. In all cases, we provide explicit expressions for the NLS coefficients, and confirm their validity with full numerical simulations of the SOBEC system including a harmonic confining potential.

description: Our objective is to provide an upper bound for the length $\ell_N$ of the longest run of consecutive integers smaller than $N$ which have the same number of divisors. We prove in an elementary way that $\log\ell_N\ll(\log N\log\log N)^λ$, where $λ=1/2$. Using estimates for the Jacobsthal function, we then improve the result to $λ=1/3$.

description: Currently, the rapid development of the automobile industry leads to an increase in traffic intensity on the roads, a sharp change in traffic flows in a short period of time results an increase in the number of road accidents. Pavement texture and skid resistance are important pavement transport-operational indicators of roads, which determines the friction between the pavement surface and vehicle tyres. Implementing optimal procedures for maintaining a sufficient texture and friction coefficient are important for minimizing road accidents. Therefore, the research discusses the measurement methodologies, correlation and resource-cost effectiveness of the mean texture depth (MTD), mean profile depth (MPD), British pendulum number (BPN) and coefficient of friction (FC) measurements on a 4R18 road in Uzbekistan.

description: The tensor functor called $α$-induction arises from a Frobenius algebra object, or a Q-system, in a braided unitary fusion category. In the operator algebraic language, it gives extensions of endomorphism of $N$ to $M$ arising from a subfactor $N\subset M$ of finite index and finite depth giving a braided fusion category of endomorpshisms of $N$. It is also understood in terms of Ocneanu's graphical calculus. We study this $α$-induction for bi-unitary connections, which give a characterization of finite-dimensional nondegenerate commuting squares and gives certain 4-tensors appearing in recent studies of 2-dimensional topological order. We show that the resulting $α$-induced bi-unitary connections are flat if we have a commutative Frobenius algebra, or a local Q-system. Examples related to chiral conformal field theory and the Dynkin diagrams are presented.

description: Quantum state discrimination (QSD) is a fundamental task in quantum information processing with numerous applications. We present a variational quantum algorithm that performs the minimum-error QSD, called the variational quantum state discriminator (VQSD). The VQSD uses a parameterized quantum circuit that is trained by minimizing a cost function derived from the QSD, and finds the optimal positive-operator valued measure (POVM) for distinguishing target quantum states. The VQSD is capable of discriminating even unknown states, eliminating the need for expensive quantum state tomography. Our numerical simulations and comparisons with semidefinite programming demonstrate the effectiveness of the VQSD in finding optimal POVMs for minimum-error QSD of both pure and mixed states. In addition, the VQSD can be utilized as a supervised machine learning algorithm for multi-class classification. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve obtained in numerical simulations with the Iris flower dataset ranges from 0.97 to 1 with an average of 0.985, demonstrating excellent performance of the VQSD classifier.

description: In this paper, we examine a modification of the Kazakov-Migdal (KM) model with gauge group $U(N_c)$, where the adjoint scalar fields in the conventional KM model are replaced by $N_f$ fundamental scalar fields (FKM model). After tuning the coupling constants and eliminating the fundamental scalar fields, the partition function of this model is expressed as an integral of a graph zeta function weighted by unitary matrices. The FKM model on cycle graphs at large $N_c$ exhibits the Gross-Witten-Wadia (GWW) phase transition only when $N_f > N_c$. In the large $N_c$ limit, we evaluate the free energy of the model on a general graph in two distinct parameter regimes and demonstrate that the FKM model generally consists of multiple phases. The effective action of the FKM model reduces to the standard Wilson action by taking an appropriate scaling limit when the graph consists of plaquettes (fundamental cycles) of the same size, as in the square lattice case. We show that, for the FKM model on such a graph, the third-order GWW phase transition universally occurs in this scaling limit.

description: We propose an efficient nonlinear readout scheme for entangled non-Gaussian spin states (ENGSs) based on the intrinsic quasi-cyclic dynamics of interacting spin-1/2 systems. We focus on two well-known spin models of twist-and-turn (TNT) and two-axis-counter-twisting (TACT), where ENGS can be generated by spin dynamics starting from unstable fixed points. In the TNT model, non-Gaussian probe state evolves directly back to the vicinity of initial state during the subsequent time-forward evolution for path recombining, accompanied by quantum magnification of encoded signal and refocusing of the associated quantum noise. Based on low-order moment measurement, we find the optimal metrological gain nearly saturates the quantum Cramer-Rao bound (QCRB) and follows the Heisenberg scaling. For the TACT case, the QCRB can also be nearly approached when the state converges to either of the two unstable fixed points, respectively corresponding to the initial state or its orthogonal coherent state. The latter case goes beyond previous studies where tracing back to or crossing the initial states is mostly considered. The present protocol does not require time-reversal as in typical nonlinear interferometries, and it also avoids complicated measurement of nonlinear observables or full probability distributions. The operational approach we discuss presents a practical way for realizing high-precision and detection-noise-robust quantum metrology with ENGS.
