description: It is shown that future solar neutrino experiments (SNO, Super-Kamiokande and others), in which high energy neutrinos will be detected (mostly from 8B decay), may allow to answer in a model independent way the question whether there are transitions of solar $ν_e$'s into sterile states. No assumptions about the initial flux of 8B neutrinos are done. Lower bounds for the probability of transition of solar $ν_e$'s into all possible sterile states are derived and expressed through measurable quantities.

A Monetary Policy Rule for Automatic Prevention of a Liquidity Trap

description: Among monetary economists, a major topic of interest during recent years has been the possibility of a liquidity trap, i.e., a situation in which monetary policy stimulus cannot be obtained by the usual method of lowering the setting of the central bank’s interest rate instrument because that rate is at its lower bound of zero. It would be better, I suggest, to use the term “zero lower bound situation,” rather than “liquidity trap,” since the latter seems to imply a priori that there is no available mechanism for generating monetary policy stimulus.

description: We present a complete description of top quark pair production in association with a hard photon in the dilepton channel. Our calculation is accurate to NLO in QCD. It is based on matrix elements for $e^+ν_e μ^-\barν_μb \bar{b}γ$ production and includes all resonant and non-resonant diagrams, interferences, and off-shell effects of the top quarks and the $W$ gauge bosons. This calculation constitutes the first full computation for top quark pair production with a final state photon in hadronic collisions at NLO in QCD. Numerical results for total and differential cross sections are presented for the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV. For a few observables relevant for new physics searches, beyond some kinematic bounds, we observe shape distortions of more than $100\%$. In addition, we confirm that the size of the top quark off-shell effects for the total cross section is consistent with the expected uncertainties of the narrow width approximation. Results presented here are not only relevant for beyond the Standard Model physics searches but also important for precise measurements of the top-quark fiducial cross sections and top-quark properties at the LHC.

description: The anthropocentric cultural idea that humans are active agents exerting control over their environments has been largely normalized and inscribed in practices, policies, and products of contemporary industrialized societies. This view underlies a human-ecology relationship based on resource and knowledge extraction. To create a more sustainable and equitable future, it is essential to consider alternative cultural ideas rooted in ecological thinking. This perspective underscores the interconnectedness between humans and more-than-human worlds. We propose a path to reshape the human-ecology relationship by advocating for alternative human-AI interactions. In this paper, we undertake a critical comparison between anthropocentrism and ecological thinking, using storytelling to illustrate various human-AI interactions that embody ecological thinking. We also delineate a set of design principles aimed at guiding AI developments toward fostering a more caring human-ecology relationship.

description: Turbulent suspensions of heavy particles in incompressible flows have gained much attention in recent years. A large amount of work focused on the impact that the inertia and the dissipative dynamics of the particles have on their dynamical and statistical properties. Substantial progress followed from the study of suspensions in model flows which, although much simpler, reproduce most of the important mechanisms observed in real turbulence. This paper presents recent developments made on the relative motion of a pair of particles suspended in time-uncorrelated and spatially self-similar Gaussian flows. This review is complemented by new results. By introducing a time-dependent Stokes number, it is demonstrated that inertial particle relative dispersion recovers asymptotically Richardson's diffusion associated to simple tracers. A perturbative (homogeneization) technique is used in the small-Stokes-number asymptotics and leads to interpreting first-order corrections to tracer dynamics in terms of an effective drift. This expansion implies that the correlation dimension deficit behaves linearly as a function of the Stokes number. The validity and the accuracy of this prediction is confirmed by numerical simulations.

description: We consider an effective field theory for the nonleptonic decay in which a heavy quark decays into a pair of a heavy quark and antiquark having a small relative velocity and one relativistic (massless) quark. This effective theory is a combination of HQET, SCET, and a covariant modification of NRQCD. In the leading logarithm approximation the effective theory decay amplitude factorizes into the product of matrix elements of heavy-to-heavy and heavy-to-light currents. We discuss a possibility of factorization beyond the leading logarithm approximation and find it doubtful. The Wilson coefficients of the effective theory electro-weak (EWET) Lagrangian in the next-to-the leading logarithm approximation are calculated at the matching scale of the decay. The differential decay rate for the inclusive decay B -> J/ψ+h in the effective theory framework is evaluated.

(Machine) Learning amplitudes for faster event generation

Publisher: name: Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron, DESY, Hamburg
Year: 2019

description: We propose to replace the exact amplitudes used in MC event generators for trained Machine Learning regressors, with the aim of speeding up the evaluation of {\it slow} amplitudes. As a proof of concept, we study the process $gg \to ZZ$ whose LO amplitude is loop induced. We show that gradient boosting machines like $\texttt{XGBoost}$ can predict the fully differential distributions with errors below $0.1 \%$, and with prediction times $\mathcal{O}(10^3)$ faster than the evaluation of the exact function. This is achieved with training times $\sim 7$ minutes and regressors of size $\lesssim 30$~Mb. These results suggest a possible a new avenue to speed up MC event generators.

description: A theoretical model is presented that selects among available short term tests of carcinogenicity and then classifies chemicals on the basis of the results. The model is simplified in ignoring the potency of various carcinogens but does take account of the social cost of falsely classifying a chemical as a carcinogen as well as the social cost of falsely classifying a chemica1 as a noncarcinogen. If some of the currently available short-term tests, separately or in sets. are capable of classifying chemicals with even moderate accuracy. this framework would serve to improve the regulation of suspect carcinogens.
Control of Competing Superconductivity and Charge Order by Non-equilibrium Currents

description: We study the competing charge-density-wave and superconducting order in the attractive Hubbard model under a voltage bias, using steady-state non-equilibrium dynamical mean-field theory. We show that the charge-density-wave is suppressed in a current-carrying non-equilibrium steady state. This effect is beyond a simple Joule-heating mechanism and a "supercooled" metallic state is stabilized at a non-equilibrium temperature lower than the equilibrium superconducting $T_c$. On the other hand, a current-carrying superconducting state is always in equilibrium. It is not subject to the same non-thermal suppression, and can therefore nucleate out of the supercooled metal, e.g. in a resistive switching experiment. The fact that an electric current can change the relative stability of different phases compared to thermal equilibrium, even when a system appears locally thermal due to electron-eletron scattering, provides a general perspective to control intertwined orders out of equilibrium.

description: The motility of motile Amoeba proteus was examined using the technique of passive particle tracking microrheology, with the aid of newly-developed particle tracking software, a fast digital camera and an optical microscope. We tracked large numbers of endogeneous particles in the amoebae, which displayed subdiffusive motion at short time scales, corresponding to thermal motion in a viscoelastic medium, and superdiffusive motion at long time scales due to the convection of the cytoplasm. Subdiffusive motion was characterised by a rheological scaling exponent of 3/4 in the cortex, indicative of the semiflexible dynamics of the actin fibres. We observed shear-thinning in the flowing endoplasm, where exponents increased with increasing flow rate; i.e. the endoplasm became more fluid-like. The rheology of the cortex is found to be isotropic, reflecting an isotropic actin gel. A clear difference was seen between cortical and endoplasmic layers in terms of both viscoelasticity and flow velocity, where the profile of the latter is close to a Poiseuille flow for a Newtonian fluid.
Inclusive breakup calculations in angular momentum basis: application to $^7$Li+$^{58}$Ni

description: The angular momentum basis method is introduced to solve the inclusive breakup within the model proposed by Ichimura, Austern, and Vincent [Phys. Rev. C 32, 431 (1985)]. This method is based on the geometric transformation between Jacobi coordinates, thus it is easy to corporate with particle spins. To test the validity of this partial wave expansion method, a benchmark calculation is done comparing with the one given in [Phys. Rev. C 92, 044616 (2015)]. Using the distorted-wave Born approximation (DWBA) version of IAV model, some applications to $^7$Li reactions are presented and compared with available data.

description: The smallness of the quark sector parameters and the hierarchy between them could be the result of a horizontal symmetry broken by a small parameter. Such an explicitly broken symmetry can arise from an exact symmetry which is spontaneously broken. Constraints on the scales of new physics arise {}from new flavor changing interactions and {}from Landau poles, but do not exclude the possibility of observable signatures at the TeV scale. Such a horizontal symmetry could also lead to many interesting results: (i) quark -- squark alignment that would suppress, without squark degeneracy, flavor changing neutral currents induced by supersymmetric particles, (ii) exact relations between mass ratios and mixing angles, (iii) a solution of the $μ$-problem and (iv) a natural mechanism for obtaining hierarchy among various symmetry breaking scales.

description: Effect of electric field on spin splitting in SiGe quantum wells (QWs) has been studied theoretically. Microscopical calculations of valley and spin splittings are performed in the effective $sp^3d^5s^*$ tight-binding model. The splittings oscillate as a function of the QW width due to inter-valley reflection of the electron wave off the interfaces. In accordance with the symmetry considerations additional electric-field-induced terms appear in the electron spin-dependent Hamiltonian. The oscillations of splitting are suppressed in rather low electric fields. The tight-binding calculations have been analyzed by using the envelope function approach extended to asymmetrical QWs.

description: This paper provides a synopsis of discussions related to biomedical engineering core curricula that occurred at the Fourth BME Education Summit held at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio in May 2019. This summit was organized by the Council of Chairs of Bioengineering and Biomedical Engineering, and participants included over 300 faculty members from 100+ accredited undergraduate programs. This discussion focused on six key questions: QI: Is there a core curriculum, and if so, what are its components? QII: How does our purported core curriculum prepare students for careers, particularly in industry? QIII: How does design distinguish BME/BIOE graduates from other engineers? QIV: What is the state of engineering analysis and systems-level modeling in BME/BIOE curricula? QV: What is the role of data science in BME/BIOE undergraduate education? QVI: What core experimental skills are required for BME/BIOE undergrads? s. Indeed, BME/BIOI core curricula exists and has matured to emphasize interdisciplinary topics such as physiology, instrumentation, mechanics, computer programming, and mathematical modeling. Departments demonstrate their own identities by highlighting discipline-specific sub-specialties. In addition to technical competence, Industry partners most highly value our students’ capacity for problem solving and communication. As such, BME/BIOE curricula includes open-ended projects that address unmet patient and clinician needs as primary methods to prepare graduates for careers in industry. Culminating senior design experiences distinguish BME/BIOE graduates through their development of client-centered engineering solutions to healthcare problems. Finally, the overall BME/BIOE curriculum is not stagnant—it is clear that data science will become an ever-important element of our students’ training and that new methods to enhance student engagement will be of pedagogical importance as we embark on the next decade.

More precisely, we prove that any 4-dimensional Bach-flat gradient shrinking Ricci soliton is either Einstein, or locally conformally flat hence a finite quotient of the Gaussian shrinking soliton $R^4$ or the round cylinder $S^3\times R$. More generally, for n>4, a Bach-flat gradient shrinking Ricci soliton is either Einstein, or a finite quotient of the Gaussian shrinking soliton $R^n$ or the product $N^{n-1}\times R$, where $N^{n-1}$ is Einstein.

description: The study of energy harvesting in chain-like structures is important due to its relevance to a variety of interesting physical systems. Harvesting is understood as the combination of exciton transport through intra-band exciton relaxation (via scattering on phonon modes) and subsequent quenching by a trap. Previously, we have shown that in the low temperature limit different harvesting scenarios as a function of the applied bias strength (slope of the energy gradient towards the trap) are possible \cite{Vlaming07}. This paper generalizes the results for both homogeneous and disordered chains to nonzero temperatures. We show that thermal effects are appreciable only for low bias strengths, particularly so in disordered systems, and lead to faster harvesting.

We show that the departure of $F_2^n/F_2^p$ and $F_2^p-F_2^n$ from the Regge expectations at small $x$ observed by the NMC likely disappears if one takes into account the shadowing corrections.

description: Most supernovae are expected to explode in low-density hot media, particularly in galactic bulges and elliptical galaxies. The remnants of such supernovae, although difficult to detect individually, can be profoundly important in heating the media on large scales. We characterize the evolution of this kind of supernova remnant, based on analytical approximations and hydrodynamic simulations. We generalize the standard Sedov solution to account for both temperature and density effects of the ambient media. Although cooling can be neglected, the expansion of such a remnant deviates quickly from the standard Sedov solution and asymptotically approaches the ambient sound speed as the swept-up thermal energy becomes important. The relatively steady and fast expansion of the remnants over large volumes provides an ideal mechanism for spatially distributed heating, which may help to alleviate the overcooling problem of hot gas in groups and clusters of galaxies, as well as in galaxies themselves. The simulations were performed with the FLASH code.

description: In this paper we prove that any $n$-dimensional ($n\ge 4$) complete Bach-flat gradient steady Ricci soliton with positive Ricci curvature is isometric to the Bryant soliton. We also show that a three-dimensional gradient steady Ricci soliton with divergence-free Bach tensor is either flat or isometric to the Bryant soliton. In particular, these results improve the corresponding classification theorems for complete locally conformally flat gradient steady Ricci solitons in [6] and [9].

description: We present an experimental demonstration as well as a theoretical model of an integrated circuit designed for the manipulation of a microwave field down to the single-photon level. The device is made of a superconducting resonator coupled to a transmission line via a second frequency-tunable resonator. The tunable resonator can be used as a tunable coupler between the fixed resonator and the transmission line. Moreover, the manipulation of the microwave field between the two resonators is possible. In particular, we demonstrate the swapping of the field from one resonator to the other by pulsing the frequency detuning between the two resonators. The behavior of the system, which determines how the device can be operated, is analyzed as a function of one key parameter of the system, the damping ratio of the coupled resonators. We show a good agreement between experiments and simulations, realized by solving a set of coupled differential equations.

description: We model alternatives for moving bulk energy, including both private costs and accounting for environmental externalities by requiring the transport system to satisfy environment, health, and safety standards. In particular, we focus on the cost and environmental trade-offs between “coal by wire,” mine-mouth generation with electricity transmission, and transporting the primary energy resources with generation near the customer. Having the bulk energy transport model satisfy standards avoids the controversy associated with estimating dollar costs for constrained visibility, noise, and 50/60 Hz electro-magnetic fields. A sensitivity analysis examines the implications of a range of carbon-dioxide discharge charges.

description: In this paper we propose the inversion of nonlinear distortions in order to improve the recognition rates of a speaker recognizer system. We study the effect of saturations on the test signals, trying to take into account real situations where the training material has been recorded in a controlled situation but the testing signals present some mismatch with the input signal level (saturations). The experimental results shows that a combination of data fusion with and without nonlinear distortion compensation can improve the recognition rates with saturated test sentences from 80% to 88.57%, while the results with clean speech (without saturation) is 87.76% for one microphone.

description: An integer may be represented by a quadratic form over each ring of p-adic integers and over the reals without being represented by this quadratic form over the integers. More generally, such failure of a local-global principle may occur for the representation of one integral quadratic form by another integral quadratic form. We show that many such examples may be accounted for by a Brauer-Manin obstruction for the existence of integral points on schemes defined over the integers. For several types of homogeneous spaces of linear algebraic groups, this obstruction is shown to be the only obstruction to the existence of integral points. ----- Une forme quadratique entière peut être représentée par une autre forme quadratique entière sur tous les anneaux d'entiers p-adiques et sur les réels, sans l'être sur les entiers. On en trouve de nombreux exemples dans la littérature. Nous montrons qu'une partie de ces exemples s'explique au moyen d'une obstruction de type Brauer-Manin pour les points entiers. Pour plusieurs types d'espaces homogènes de groupes algébriques linéaires, cette obstruction est la seule obstruction à l'existence d'un point entier.

description: In this paper, we present a new bicriteria approximation algorithm for the degreebounded minimum spanning tree problem. In this problem, we are given an undirected graph, a nonnegative cost function on the edges, and a positive integer B∗, and the goal is to find a minimumcost spanning tree T with maximum degree at most B∗. In an n-node graph, our algorithm finds a spanning tree with maximum degree O(B∗ + log n) and cost O( opt B∗ ), where opt B∗ is the minimum cost of any spanning tree whose maximum degree is at most B∗. Our algorithm uses ideas from Lagrangean duality. We show how a set of optimum Lagrangean multipliers yields bounds on both the degree and the cost of the computed solution.

description: The k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) classification approach is conceptually simple - yet widely applied since it often performs well in practical applications. However, using a global constant k does not always provide an optimal solution, e.g., for datasets with an irregular density distribution of data points. This paper proposes an adaptive kNN classifier where k is chosen dynamically for each instance (point) to be classified, such that the expected accuracy of classification is maximized. We define the expected accuracy as the accuracy of a set of structurally similar observations. An arbitrary similarity function can be used to find these observations. We introduce and evaluate different similarity functions. For the evaluation, we use five different classification tasks based on geo-spatial data. Each classification task consists of (tens of) thousands of items. We demonstrate, that the presented expected accuracy measures can be a good estimator for kNN performance, and the proposed adaptive kNN classifier outperforms common kNN and previously introduced adaptive kNN algorithms. Also, we show that the range of considered k can be significantly reduced to speed up the algorithm without negative influence on classification accuracy.

description: Magnetic impurities affect the transport properties of the helical edge states of quantum spin Hall insulators by causing single-electron backscattering. We study such a system in the presence of a Rashba spin-orbit interaction induced by an external electric field, showing that this can be used to control the Kondo temperature, as well as the correction to the conductance due to the impurity. Surprisingly, for a strongly anisotropic electron-impurity spin exchange, Kondo screening may get obstructed by the presence of a non-collinear spin interaction mediated by the Rashba coupling. This challenges the expectation that the Kondo effect is stable against time-reversal invariant perturbations.

description: Objectives: Because only one head-to-head randomized trial of biologics for moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC) has been performed, indirect treatment comparisons remain important. This systematic review and network meta-analysis examined efficacy and safety of biologics and tofacitinib for moderate-to-severe UC, using values for vedolizumab as a reference. Methods: Relevant studies (N=19) of vedolizumab, adalimumab, infliximab, golimumab, ustekinumab, and tofacitinib were identified. Study design differences were addressed by assessing efficacy outcomes conditional on response at maintenance initiation. Primary analysis used fixed-effect models to estimate odds ratios for efficacy and safety endpoints. Results: Compared with vedolizumab 300 mg, adalimumab 160/80 mg was associated with less clinical remission (odds ratio, 0.69 [95% credible interval, 0.54–0.88]), and infliximab 5 mg/kg was associated with more clinical remission (1.67 [1.16–2.42]) and response (1.63 [1.15–2.30]). Adalimumab 40 mg, golimumab 50 mg, and ustekinumab 90 mg Q12W had significantly lower clinical remission rates during maintenance (0.62 [0.45–0.86], 0.55 [0.32–0.95], and 0.59 [0.35–0.99]) versus vedolizumab 300 mg Q8W. Response results were similar. Tofacitinib 10 mg had the highest maintenance treatment efficacy estimates and highest infection risk. Conclusion: Network meta-analysis and novel integrated benefit-risk analysis suggest a potentially favorable efficacy-safety balance for vedolizumab compared with adalimumab and other advanced UC therapies.
$Π$ in the Sky ? Microwave Anisotropies from Cosmic Defects

description: High resolution maps of the anisotropy of the microwave sky will yield invaluable clues as to the mechanisms involved in cosmic structure formation. One fundamental question they should answer is whether the fluctuations were Gaussian random noise, as predicted in inflationary models, or were nonGaussian as in theories based on symmetry breaking and cosmic defects. In the latter case there is the prospect of obtaining information regarding symmetry breaking at high energy scales, specifically the homotopy classes $Π_n$ of the vacuum manifold. In this paper we report on detailed calculations of the degree scale anisotropies predicted in the cosmic string, monopole texture and nontopological texture theories of structure formation, emphasising their distinct character from those predicted by inflation, and the bright prospects for experimental tests.

description: IN AN earlier article in this Journal and in several other places, evidence has been presented supporting a theory of the demand for money that is a part of the "wealth adjustment process." The posited demand function has successfully passed a large number of tests in competition with more than a dozen alternatives, representing the bulk of substantive work on the demand for money in the past thirty years. Though no series of tests is "definitive," the evidence from tests against alternatives is of crucial importance in establishing the economic relevance of the particular demand function. I regard such tests as preliminary to —and far more important than—"Chow tests," "Theil-Nagar tests," "Durbin-Watson tests," and other sophisticated statistical procedures for establishing the relevance of particular hypotheses.4 However, the accumulating evidence suggests that the use of refined statistical procedures may now be desirable. I welcome the opportunity presented by the comments of Courchene and Shapiro to present some of the available evidence on the points that they raised.
