description: In this paper, we propose a new architecture to enhance the privacy and security of networked control systems against malicious adversaries. We consider an adversary which first learns the system dynamics (privacy) using system identification techniques, and then performs a data injection attack (security). In particular, we consider an adversary conducting zero-dynamics attacks (ZDA) which maximizes the performance cost of the system whilst staying undetected. However, using the proposed architecture, we show that it is possible to (i) introduce significant bias in the system estimates of the adversary: thus providing privacy of the system parameters, and (ii) efficiently detect attacks when the adversary performs a ZDA using the identified system: thus providing security. Through numerical simulations, we illustrate the efficacy of the proposed architecture.

description: By assuming there exist three massive non-degenerate Majorana neutrinos, it is possible to describe neutrino mixing with a residual, unbroken discrete Klein subgroup of a larger spontaneously broken flavor symmetry group. Motivated by forthcoming measurements of leptonic CP violation, we revisit this framework by applying group presentation rules to it. We develop a method that is able to reproduce all previous results in the literature and may also hint at a possible group theoretical origin of CP violation in the Klein symmetry elements. This is due to the explicit appearance of a phase in them. However, for the cases considered in this analysis, it turns out that this phase can be removed. Still, this new method warrants further study.

description: Ti exhibits complex plastic deformation controlled by active dislocation and twinning systems. Understandings on dislocation cores and twin interfaces are currently not complete or quantitative, despite extensive experimental and simulation studies. Here, we determine all the core and twin interface properties in both HCP and BCC Ti using a Deep Potential (DP) and DFT. We determine the core structures, critical resolved shear stresses and mobilities of , , dislocations in HCP and <111>/2 dislocations in BCC Ti. The slip consists of slow core migration on pyramidal-I planes and fast migration on prism-planes, and is kinetically limited by cross-slips among them. This behaviour is consistent with "locking-unlocking" phenomena in TEM and is likely an intrinsic property. Large-scale DFT calculations provide a peek at the screw core and glide behaviour, which is further quantified using DP-Ti. The screw is unstable on pyramidal-II planes. The mixed is nearly sessile on pyramidal-I planes, consistent with observations of long dislocations in this orientation. The edge and mixed are unstable against a pyramidal-to-basal (PB) transition and become sessile at high temperatures, corroborate the difficulties in -axis compression of Ti. Finally, in BCC Ti, the <111>/2 screw has a degenerate core with average glide on {112} planes; the <111>/2 edge and mixed dislocations have non-dissociated cores on {110} planes. This work paints a self-consistent, complete picture on all dislocations in Ti, rationalises previous experimental observations and points to future HRTEM examinations of unusual dislocations such as the mixed and PB transformed cores.

description: In a two-tier industry with bottleneck upstream and two downstream firms producing vertically differentiated goods, we identify conditions under which the upstream supplier chooses exclusive or non-exclusive negotiations, or an English auction to sell its essential input. Auctioning off a two-part tariff contract is optimal for the supplier when its bar- gaining power is low and the final goods are not too differentiated. Otherwise, the supplier enters into exclusive or non-exclusive negotiations with the downstream firm(s). Finally, in contrast to previous findings, an auction is never welfare superior to negotiations.

description: The nature of the bulk topological order of the 5/2 non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall state and the steady-state of its edge are long-studied questions. The most promising non-Abelian model bulk states are the Pfaffian (Pf), anti-Pffafian (APf), and particle-hole symmetric Pfaffian (PHPf). Here, we propose to employ a set of dc current-current correlations \emph{(electrical shot noise)} in order to distinguish among the Pf, APf, and PHPf candidate states, as well as to determine their edge thermal equilibration regimes: full vs.\ partial. Using other tools, measurements of GaAs platforms have already indicated consistency with the PHPf state. Our protocol, realizable with available experimental tools, is based on fully electrical measurements.

description: Dissipation induced by interactions with an external environment typically hinders the performance of quantum computation, but in some cases can be turned out as a useful resource. We show the potential enhancement induced by dissipation in the field of quantum reservoir computing introducing tunable local losses in spin network models. Our approach based on continuous dissipation is able not only to reproduce the dynamics of previous proposals of quantum reservoir computing, based on discontinuous erasing maps but also to enhance their performance. Control of the damping rates is shown to boost popular machine learning temporal tasks as the capability to linearly and non-linearly process the input history and to forecast chaotic series. Finally, we formally prove that, under non-restrictive conditions, our dissipative models form a universal class for reservoir computing. It means that considering our approach, it is possible to approximate any fading memory map with arbitrary precision.

description: Social capital among close friends is the norms of trust and reciprocity shared by a group of friends within multistranded networks. This research investigated the factors that contribute to the levels of friendship social capital. It also analyzed whether friendship social capital was associated with participation in voluntary associations and whether those who reported high levels of social capital with their friends also reported higher levels of generalized trust in the wider society. Through an online survey of young Australian residents aged 16 to 25 (N=283) closed networks were found to be associated with very high levels of social capital among friends. Further, those with very high levels of friendship social capital were more likely to participate in organized groups and to report high levels of generalized social capital than those with lower levels of friendship social capital. Thus, promoting friendship networks of young people could benefit society more broadly by fostering participation in voluntary activities and generalized social capital.

description: The discrepancy between Planck data and direct measurements of the current expansion rate $H_0$ and the matter fluctuation amplitude $S_8$ has become one of the most intriguing puzzles in cosmology nowadays. The $H_0$ tension has reached $4.2σ$ in the context of standard cosmology i.e $Λ$CDM. Therefore, explanations to this issue are mandatory to unveil its secrets. Despite its success, $Λ$CDM is unable to give a satisfying explanation to the tension problem. Unless some systematic errors might be hidden in the observable measurements, physics beyond the standard model of cosmology must be advocated. In this perspective, we study a phantom dynamical dark energy model as an alternative to $Λ$CDM in order to explain the aforementioned issues. This phantom model is characterised by one extra parameter, $Ω_{pdde}$, compared to $Λ$CDM. We obtain a strong positive correlation between $H_0$ and $Ω_{pdde}$, for all data combinations. Using Planck measurements together with BAO and Pantheon, we find that the $H_0$ and the $S_8$ tensions are $3σ$ and $2.6σ$, respectively. By introducing a prior on the absolute magnitude, $M_B$, of the SN Ia, the $H_0$ tension decreases to $2.27σ$ with $H_0 = 69.76_{-0.82}^{+0.75}$ km s$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$ and the $S_8$ tension reaches the value $2.37σ$ with $S_8 =0.8269_{-0.012}^{+0.011}$.

description: Cyclin dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a determinant of PARP inhibitor and ionizing radiation (IR) sensitivity. Here we show that Cdk5-depleted (Cdk5-shRNA) HeLa cells show higher sensitivity to S-phase irradiation, chronic hydroxyurea exposure, and 5-fluorouracil and 6-thioguanine treatment, with hydroxyurea and IR sensitivity also seen in Cdk5-depleted U2OS cells. As Cdk5 is not directly implicated in DNA strand break repair we investigated in detail its proposed role in the intra-S checkpoint activation. While Cdk5-shRNA HeLa cells showed altered basal S-phase dynamics with slower replication velocity and fewer active origins per DNA megabase, checkpoint activation was impaired after a hydroxyurea block. Cdk5 depletion was associated with reduced priming phosphorylations of RPA32 serines 29 and 33 and SMC1-Serine 966 phosphorylation, lower levels of RPA serine 4 and 8 phosphorylation and DNA damage measured using the alkaline Comet assay, gamma-H2AX signal intensity, RPA and Rad51 foci, and sister chromatid exchanges resulting in impaired intra-S checkpoint activation and subsequently higher numbers of chromatin bridges. In vitro kinase assays coupled with mass spectrometry demonstrated that Cdk5 can carry out the RPA32 priming phosphorylations on serines 23, 29, and 33 necessary for this checkpoint activation. In addition we found an association between lower Cdk5 levels and longer metastasis free survival in breast cancer patients and survival in Cdk5-depleted breast tumor cells after treatment with IR and a PARP inhibitor. Taken together, these results show that Cdk5 is necessary for basal replication and replication stress checkpoint activation and highlight clinical opportunities to enhance tumor cell killing.

Reduction for asynchronous Boolean networks: elimination of negatively autoregulated components

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Discrete Mathematics (cs.DM)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: To simplify the analysis of Boolean networks, a reduction in the number of components is often considered. A popular reduction method consists in eliminating components that are not autoregulated, using variable substitution. In this work, we show how this method can be extended, for asynchronous dynamics of Boolean networks, to the elimination of vertices that have a negative autoregulation, and study the effects on the dynamics and interaction structure. For elimination of non-autoregulated variables, the preservation of attractors is in general guaranteed only for fixed points. Here we give sufficient conditions for the preservation of complex attractors. The removal of so called mediator nodes (i.e. vertices with indegree and outdegree one) is often considered, and frequently does not affect the attractor landscape. We clarify that this is not always the case, and in some situations even subtle changes in the interaction structure can lead to a different asymptotic behaviour. Finally, we use properties of the more general elimination method introduced here to give an alternative proof for a bound on the number of attractors of asynchronous Boolean networks in terms of the cardinality of positive feedback vertex sets of the interaction graph.

description: Plasmonic devices offer the possibility of passively detecting changes in local chemistry that opens up a wide range of applications from molecular sensing to monitoring water quality. Conventional plasmonics have previously shown great promise as nanoscale chemical sensors through detection of small variations in the local refractive index (RI). The motivation behind using plasmonics for these applications includes the fact that detection is entirely passive and the devices themselves can be readily miniaturized. Previously, a lack of any control over the output of these devices, has fundamentally limited their application to chemicals which produce clearly identifiable resonances within the range of detection. Here it is demonstrated that microfluidic devices, incorporating polarization-controlled plasmonic nanopixels, allow the device response to be tuned to the particular analyte of interest, anywhere within the visible spectrum. This dramatically increases the effective dynamic range and allows local variations in RI to be perceived directly as color changes by the human eye. Active control over the output of the device also enables clear differentiation between a number of different analytes, paving the way for plasmonics to be used for a wide range of real-world chemical sensing applications.

description: We derive a reduced model for the electrostatic turbulence in a Tokamak edge, when dealing with a resistive plasma and neglecting the spatial gradient of the background density which triggers the linear drift wave response. The obtained dynamics, de facto equivalent to a Hasegawa-Wakatani model, is characterized by a constitutive relation between the electric potential Laplacian and the density, which allows to deal with a single 3D equation governing the electric potential fluctuations. We study the evolution of the model, by separating the $n=0$ ($n$ indicating toroidal-like number) mode from all the other ones. Then, we linearize the dynamics of the $n\neq 0$ modes around the steady 2D spectrum, which describes the spectral features of the electrostatic 2D turbulence. We theoretically and numerically demonstrate the existence of decaying branch of the 3D turbulence, having such a 2D steady spectrum as a natural attractor. This result suggests that the basic constituent of the self-sustained non-linear drift response in the plasma edge has to be individualized in the non-linear 2D electrostatic turbulence.

description: We consider critical planar Ising model in annulus with alternating boundary conditions on the outer boundary and free boundary conditions in the inner boundary. As the size of the inner hole goes to zero, the event that all interfaces get close to the inner hole before they meet each other is a rare event. We prove that the law of the collection of the interfaces conditional on this rare event converges in total variation distance to the so-called $2N$-sided radial SLE$_3$, introduced by~[HL21]. The proof relies crucially on an estimate for multiple chordal SLE. Suppose $(γ_1, \ldots, γ_N)$ is chordal $N$-SLE$_κ$ with $κ\in (0,4]$ in the unit disc, and we consider the probability that all $N$ curves get close to the origin. We prove that the limit $\lim_{r\to 0+}r^{-A_{2N}}\mathbb{P}[\mathrm{dist}(0,γ_j)

description: On small angular scales, i.e. at high angular frequencies, beyond the damping tail of the primary power spectrum, the dominant contribution to the power spectrum of cosmic microwave background temperature fluctuations is the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect. We investigate various important statistical properties of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich maps, using well-motivated models for dark matter clustering to construct statistical descriptions of the tSZ effect to all orders enabling us to determine the entire probability distribution function (PDF). Any generic deterministic biasing scheme can be incorporated in our analysis and the effects of projection, biasing and the underlying density distribution can be analysed separately and transparently in this approach. We introduce the cumulant correlators as tools to analyse tSZ catalogues and relate them to corresponding statistical descriptors of the underlying density distribution. The statistics of hot spots in frequency-cleaned tSZ maps are also developed in a self-consistent way to an arbitrary order, to obtain results complementary to those found using the halo model. We also consider different beam sizes to check the extent to which the PDF can be extracted from various observational configurations. The formalism is presented with two specific models for underlying matter clustering, the hierarchical ansatz and the lognormal distribution. We find both models to be in very good agreement with the simulation results, though the extension of the hierarchical model has an edge over the lognormal model. In addition to testing against simulations made using semi-analytical techniques, we have also used the maps made using Millennium Gas Simulations to prove that the PDF and bias can indeed be predicted with very high accuracy using these models. The presence of significant non-gravitational effects such as preheating, however, cannot be modelled using an analytical approach which is based on the modelling of gravitational clustering alone. Our results indicate that the PDFs we construct are insensitive to the underlying cosmology and can thus provide a useful probe of non-gravitational processes, e.g. preheating or feedback.

Star formation activity in a young galaxy cluster at Z = 0.866

description: The galaxy cluster RX J1257+4738 at z = 0.866 is one of the highest redshift clusters with a richness of multi-wavelength data, and is thus a good target to study the star formation-density relation at early epochs. Using a sample of spectroscopically confirmed cluster members, we derive the star-formation rates (SFRs) of our galaxies using two methods: (1) the relation between SFR and total infrared luminosity extrapolated from the observed Spitzer Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer 24 μm imaging data; and (2) spectral energy distribution fitting using the MAGPHYS code, including eight different bands. We show that, for this cluster, the SFR-density relation is very weak and seems to be dominated by the two central galaxies and the SFR presents a mild dependence on stellar mass, with more massive galaxies having higher SFR. However, the specific SFR (SSFR) decreases with stellar mass, meaning that more massive galaxies are forming fewer stars per unit of mass, and thus suggesting that the increase in star-forming members is driven by cluster assembly and infall. If the environment is somehow driving the star formation, one would expect a relation between the SSFR and the cluster centric distance, but that is not the case. A possible scenario to explain this lack of correlation is the contamination by infalling galaxies in the inner part of the cluster, which may be on their initial pass through the cluster center. As these galaxies have higher SFRs for their stellar mass, they enhance the mean SSFR in the center of the cluster.

description: We derive an exact upper bound on the epidemic overshoot for the Kermack-McKendrick SIR model. This maximal overshoot value of 0.2984... occurs at $R_0^*$ = 2.151... . In considering the utility of the notion of overshoot, a rudimentary analysis of data from the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Manaus, Brazil highlights the public health hazard posed by overshoot for epidemics with $R_0$ near 2. Using the general analysis framework presented within, we then consider more complex SIR models that incorporate vaccination.

description: Periodic systems feature the Hofstadter butterfly spectrum produced by Brown--Zak minibands of electrons formed when magnetic field flux through the lattice unit cell is commensurate with flux quantum and manifested by magneto-transport oscillations. Quantum oscillations, such as Shubnikov -- de Haas effect and Aharonov--Bohm effect, are also characteristic for electronic systems with closed orbits in real space and reciprocal space. Here we show the intricate relation between these two phenomena by tracing quantum magneto-oscillations to Lifshitz transitions in graphene superlattices, where they persist even at relatively low fields and very much above liquid-helium temperatures. The oscillations originate from Aharonov--Bohm interference on cyclotron trajectories that form a kagomé-shaped network characteristic for Lifshitz transitions. In contrast to Shubnikov - de Haas oscillations, the kagomé oscillations are robust against thermal smearing and they can be detected even when the Hofstadter butterfly spectrum is undermined by electron's scattering. We expect that kagomé quantum oscillations are generic to rotationally-symmetric two-dimensional crystals close to Lifshitz transitions.

description: ATG101 is an essential component of the ULK complex responsible for initiating cellular autophagy in mammalian cells; its 3-dimensional structure and molecular function, however, are currently unclear. Here we present the X-ray structure of human ATG101. The protein displays an open HORMA domain fold. Both structural properties and biophysical evidence indicate that ATG101 is locked in this conformation, in contrast to the prototypical HORMA domain protein MAD2. Moreover, we discuss a potential mode of dimerization with ATG13 as a fundamental aspect of ATG101 function.

description: Hydrochar serves as a promising adsorbent for the elimination of heavy metals from wastewater. In this study, hydrochars derived from wheat straw (WSHC) and swine manure (SMHC) were used for absorbing Pb(II) from the solution. The results showed that at an initial Pb(II) concentration of 100 mg/L and a pH of 6.4, the adsorption capacity of SMHC and WSHC were 3.12 and 2.45 mg/g at dosages of 32.0 and 40.0 g/L, respectively. In addition, the Pb(II) adsorption efficiency by both hydrochars exceeded 98%. The equilibrium time of SMHC (10 min) was much less than WSHC (105 min). However, WSHC could maintain a higher Pb(II) adsorption efficiency at a high Pb(II) solution concentration (>500 mg/L). The main adsorption mechanism of WSHC was cation-π interactions and surface complexation of the oxygen-containing functional groups because it contained more organic constituents. Meanwhile, the molecular sieve effect played an important role in adsorption for SMHC because it contained a large amount of inorganic nanoparticles containing Si and P, such as nano-SiO2, which formed during the hydrothermal process. This study provided strategies and methods for modifying hydrochar by adjusting the inorganic constituents of hydrochar.

description: In the era of industrial big data, prognostics and health management is essential to improve the prediction of future failures to minimize inventory, maintenance, and human costs. Used for the 2021 PHM Data Challenge, the new Commercial Modular Aero-Propulsion System Simulation dataset from NASA is an open-source benchmark containing simulated turbofan engine units flown under realistic flight conditions. Deep learning approaches implemented previously for this application attempt to predict the remaining useful life of the engine units, but have not utilized labeled failure mode information, impeding practical usage and explainability. To address these limitations, a new prognostics approach is formulated with a customized loss function to simultaneously predict the current health state, the eventual failing component(s), and the remaining useful life. The proposed method incorporates principal component analysis to orthogonalize statistical time-domain features, which are inputs into supervised regressors such as random forests, extreme random forests, XGBoost, and artificial neural networks. The highest performing algorithm, ANN-Flux, achieves AUROC and AUPR scores exceeding 0.95 for each classification. In addition, ANN-Flux reduces the remaining useful life RMSE by 38% for the same test split of the dataset compared to past work, with significantly less computational cost.
