description: In a recent paper (Lacombe, Mukohyama, and Seitz, JCAP {\bf 2024}, 05, 064 (2024)), the authors provided an in-depth analysis of a class of modified gravity theories, generally called $f(R,{\rm Matter})$ theories, which assume the existence of a non-minimal coupling between geometry and matter. It was argued that if the matter sector consists of Standard Model particles, then these theories suffer from the presence of ghosts, or are just scalar/vector-tensor theories. Hence, the relevance of these theories for cosmology was questioned. It is the goal of the present work to carefully analyze, discuss, and assess the line of arguments proposed in Lacombe et al. JCAP {\bf 2024}, 05, 064 (2024). After a qualitative critical discussion of the five general arguments proposed for the validity of a gravitational theory, we present the theoretical foundations of the $f(R,{\rm Matter})$ theories, including their possible relations with quantum gravity, and discuss in detail the role of matter. The matter source discussed in Lacombe et al., consisting predominantly of a massless scalar field, is extremely restrictive, and rather irrelevant for cosmology and the description of the observational data. We also devote a detailed discussion of the problem of the energy scales of the $f(R,{\rm Matter})$ theories. To test the observational relevance of this type of theories we present the comparison of a simple theoretical model with a small set of observational data and with the $Λ$CDM paradigm. We conclude by pointing out that the analysis of Lacombe et al., JCAP {\bf 2024}, 05, 064 (2024), even very useful for the understanding of some limited aspects of the $f(R,{\rm Matter})$ theories, and of their theoretical foundations, cannot be considered as a valid or definite criticism of these approaches to gravity.

description: Abnormality detection in identifying a single-subject which deviates from the majority of a control group dataset is a fundamental problem. Typically, the control group is characterised using standard Normal statistics, and the detection of a single abnormal subject is in that context. However, in many situations, the control group cannot be described by Normal statistics, making standard statistical methods inappropriate. This paper presents a Bayesian Inference General Procedures for A Single-subject Test (BIGPAST) designed to mitigate the effects of skewness under the assumption that the dataset of the control group comes from the skewed Student \( t \) distribution. BIGPAST operates under the null hypothesis that the single-subject follows the same distribution as the control group. We assess BIGPAST's performance against other methods through simulation studies. The results demonstrate that BIGPAST is robust against deviations from normality and outperforms the existing approaches in accuracy nearest to the nominal accuracy 0.95.
 BIGPAST can reduce model misspecification errors under the skewed Student
 $t$ assumption by up to 12 times, as demonstrated in Section 3.3. We
 apply BIGPAST to a Magnetoencephalography (MEG) dataset consisting of an
 individual with mild traumatic brain injury and an age and gender-matched
 control group. For example, the previous method failed to detect abnormalities
 in 8 brain areas, whereas BIGPAST successfully identified them, demonstrating
 its effectiveness in detecting abnormalities in a single-subject.

description: The superconducting state and mechanism are among the least understood phenomena in twisted graphene systems. Recent tunneling experiments indicate a transition between nodal and gapped pairing with electron filling, which is not naturally understood within current theory. We demonstrate that the coexistence of superconductivity and flavor polarization leads to pairing channels that are guaranteed by symmetry to be entirely band-off-diagonal, with a variety of consequences: most notably, the pairing invariant under all symmetries can have Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces in the superconducting state with protected nodal lines, or may be fully gapped, depending on parameters, and the band-off-diagonal chiral p -wave state exhibits transitions between gapped and nodal regions upon varying the doping. We demonstrate that band-off-diagonal pairing can be the leading state when only phonons are considered, and is also uniquely favored by fluctuations of a time-reversal-symmetric intervalley coherent order motivated by recent experiments. Consequently, band-off-diagonal superconductivity allows for the reconciliation of several key experimental observations in graphene moiré systems.

description: Large language models have significantly transformed multiple fields with their exceptional performance in natural language tasks, but their deployment in resource-constrained environments like edge networks presents an ongoing challenge. Decentralized techniques for inference have emerged, distributing the model blocks among multiple devices to improve flexibility and cost effectiveness. However, energy limitations remain a significant concern for edge devices. We propose a sustainable model for collaborative inference on interconnected, battery-powered edge devices with energy harvesting. A semi-Markov model is developed to describe the states of the devices, considering processing parameters and average green energy arrivals. This informs the design of scheduling algorithms that aim to minimize device downtimes and maximize network throughput. Through empirical evaluations and simulated runs, we validate the effectiveness of our approach, paving the way for energy-efficient decentralized inference over edge networks.

description: Agriculture is a substantial consumer of energy, encompassing not only fuel usage in food and fiber production but also in the manufacturing of critical inputs like pesticides and fertilizers. In 2012, the U.S. agricultural sector devoured an astounding 800 trillion British thermal units (Btu), mirroring the primary energy consumption of an entire state, Utah. Renewable energy sources contributed 12.2% to the nation's energy consumption, with renewable electricity generation comprising 14.94% of domestically produced electricity in 2016. An extensive study by the Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) even envisages the potential to derive 80% of U.S. electricity from renewable sources by 2050.

This substantial energy consumption and the potential shift towards renewables prompts an essential question: Are consumers prepared for such a transformation in electricity generation sources? Public sentiment regarding new energy sources predominantly hinges on personal values, experiences, and the influence of trusted social networks. Notably, public opinion regarding energy issues overwhelmingly supports the expansion of both solar and wind power.

As our society and electricity production stride towards greater dependence on renewable energy, the imperative lies in educating the next generation and providing them with hands-on experiences in renewable technologies. This multifaceted approach promises to bridge the gap between energy consumption and sustainability, heralding a greener future
Reframing Minority Rights Amid Global Challenges: The Role of AI and Algorithmic Fairness in Promoting Diversity and Inclusion

description: AI has the potential to either exacerbate or mitigate discrimination against minority groups. While AI systems can reinforce societal biases through feedback loops, proxy discrimination, and data shortages, responsible AI governance can help counteract these risks. By adopting a human-centered approach, societies can harness AI to promote rather than undermine diversity and minority rights. Ultimately, it is human decision-makers who have the power to steer it in one direction or the other.

description: Recent advancements for large-scale pre-training with neural signals such as electroencephalogram (EEG) have shown promising results, significantly boosting the development of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and healthcare. However, these pre-trained models often require full fine-tuning on each downstream task to achieve substantial improvements, limiting their versatility and usability, and leading to considerable resource wastage. To tackle these challenges, we propose NeuroLM, the first multi-task foundation model that leverages the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) by regarding EEG signals as a foreign language, endowing the model with multi-task learning and inference capabilities. Our approach begins with learning a text-aligned neural tokenizer through vector-quantized temporal-frequency prediction, which encodes EEG signals into discrete neural tokens. These EEG tokens, generated by the frozen vector-quantized (VQ) encoder, are then fed into an LLM that learns causal EEG information via multi-channel autoregression. Consequently, NeuroLM can understand both EEG and language modalities. Finally, multi-task instruction tuning adapts NeuroLM to various downstream tasks. We are the first to demonstrate that, by specific incorporation with LLMs, NeuroLM unifies diverse EEG tasks within a single model through instruction tuning. The largest variant NeuroLM-XL has record-breaking 1.7B parameters for EEG signal processing, and is pre-trained on a large-scale corpus comprising approximately 25,000-hour EEG data. When evaluated on six diverse downstream datasets, NeuroLM showcases the huge potential of this multi-task learning paradigm.

description: Understanding characteristics of temporal correlations in time series is crucial for developing accurate models in natural and social sciences. The burst-tree decomposition method was recently introduced to reveal higher-order temporal correlations in time series in a form of an event sequence, in particular, the hierarchical structure of bursty trains of events for the entire range of timescales [Jo et al., Sci.~Rep.~\textbf{10}, 12202 (2020)]. Such structure has been found to be simply characterized by the burst-merging kernel governing which bursts are merged together as the timescale for defining bursts increases. In this work, we study the effects of kernels on the higher-order temporal correlations in terms of burst size distributions, memory coefficients for bursts, and the autocorrelation function. We employ several kernels, including the constant, sum, product, and diagonal kernels as well as those inspired by empirical results. We generically find that kernels with preferential merging lead to heavy-tailed burst size distributions, while kernels with assortative merging lead to positive correlations between burst sizes. The decaying exponent of the autocorrelation function depends not only on the kernel but also on the power-law exponent of the interevent time distribution. In addition, thanks to the analogy to the coagulation process, analytical solutions of burst size distributions for some kernels could be obtained. Our findings may shed light on the role of burst-merging kernels as underlying mechanisms of higher-order temporal correlations in time series.

Dissipative Collisions of Impinging Liquid Jets Having Uniform Velocity Profiles

description: The dissipation of energy in the impingement zone from the collision of impinging, free, equal jets of liquids was investigated by comparison with studies on the energy dissipation from the collision of impinging, free, equal sheets of liquids. Loss of energy was studied in terms of the coefficient of restitution (COR) of the collision. With few exceptions, previous analytical studies have assumed that there is no loss of energy resulting from the collision of the jets (COR = 1), and for jets with uniform velocity profiles, the sheet velocity (velocity after the collision) is equal to the jet velocity (velocity before the collision). In this study, mass and momentum balances of impinging jets with uniform velocity profiles are revised to include the impact of non-equal velocities (COR < 1). After development of the applicable theory, the COR for impinging jets is calculated from available data in the literature on jet and sheet velocities as well as the location of the stagnation point in the impingement zone. Simple empirical correlations were developed for 1) the COR of impinging jets as a function of impingement angle and 2) the relationship of the location of the stagnation point to the COR. A theoretical equation was also derived for the impact of dissipative collisions on the thickness distribution in the liquid sheet.

description: Continuous superradiance using a narrow optical transition has the potential to improve the short-term stability of state-of-the-art optical clocks. Even though pulsed superradiant emission on a mHz linewidth clock transition has been shown, true continuous operation, without Fourier limitation, has turned out to be extremely challenging. The trade-off between maintaining a high atomic flux while minimizing decoherence effects presents a significant obstacle. Here, we discuss the design of a machine that could overcome this problem by combining a high-flux continuous beam of ultra cold strontium atoms with a bowtie cavity for the generation of superradiant lasing. To evaluate the feasibility of our design, we present simulation results for continuous high-efficiency cooling, loading, and pumping to the upper lasing state inside the bowtie cavity. We then present two different models for stimulating the generated superradiant field by taking into account position-dependent shifts, collisional decoherence, light shifts, and atom loss. Finally, we estimate a laser linewidth of less than 100 mHz, limited by atom number fluctuations, and resulting in an output power of hundreds of fW.

description: This paper develops a game-theoretical framework to analyze anticounterfeit efforts in a supply chain consisting of an authentic manufacturer, a counterfeit manufacturer, and an online marketplace retailer. It is assumed that consumers are ethical, and counterfeits are deceptive. The retailer balances the revenue from both authentic goods and counterfeits against the cost of combating counterfeits under a consignment contract with revenue sharing, especially in scenarios of uncertain demand. Initially, we establish a base model where the retailer is solely responsible for anti-counterfeit efforts. We find that the optimal combat level decreases with demand uncertainty and increases with price elasticity. Furthermore, when consumers harbour increased aversion towards the marketplace due to counterfeit concerns, it proves beneficial to elevate the combat level to bolster consumer trust. Additionally, we explore two joint combat models: one where the online retailer spearheads the combat, and another where the authentic manufacturer takes the lead. We find that the optimal service level remains consistent across all three models. However, when the retailer leads the combat, it yields the (weakly) lowest revenue share for the retailer but results in the highest total combat level and stocking quantity.

description: Perylene bisimides (PBIs) are organic dyes with photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQY) close to unity in solution and great thermal and photo-chemical stability. These features alongside the tunability of their solid-state packing arrangement via chemical functionalization make this material class an excellent candidate for exciton-polariton lasing at room temperature. Polariton lasing is well understood in III-V semiconductors at cryogenic temperatures, however, the search for emitter materials for robust and versatile room temperature applications is ongoing. While e.g. perovskites and several organic materials have been identified to support polariton lasing, many of these materials lack tunability and long-term stability under ambient conditions. Here, we fabricate optical microcavities using a strongly enwrapped PBI chromophore with prevailing monomer-like absorption and emission properties in the solid state. Voluminous bay-substituents prevent stacking induced PLQY-quenching, thereby enabling polariton lasing at room temperature. Additionally, photonic confinement in single hemispheric resonators is demonstrated leading to localized polaritonic modes with discrete energies, as well as optical lattices revealing distinct polaritonic band-structures. Due to the possibility of tunable properties by the precise control of the solid-state packing arrangement of PBI emitters, our results pave the way for polarization-dependent light-matter coupling, including topological photonic effects within oriented crystalline thin-film microcavity structures.
Adaptive Kink Filtration: Achieving Asymptotic Size-Independence of Path Integral Simulations Utilizing the Locality of Interactions

description: Recent method developments involving path integral simulations have come a long way in making these techniques practical for studying condensed phase non-equilibrium phenomena. One of the main difficulties that still needs to be surmounted is the scaling of the algorithms with the system dimensionality. The majority of recent techniques have only changed the order of this scaling (going from exponential to possibly a very high ordered polynomial) and not eased the dependence on the system size. In this current work, we introduce an adaptive kink filtration technique for path generation approach that leverages the locality of the interactions present in the system and the consequent sparsity of the propagator matrix to remove the asymptotic size dependence of the simulations for the propagation of reduced density matrices. This enables the simulation of larger systems at a significantly reduced cost. This technique can be used both for simulation of non-equilibrium dynamics and for equilibrium correlation functions, and is demonstrated here using examples from both -- simulating the excitonic dynamics in bacteriochlorophyll chains and their absorption and emission spectra. We show that the cost becomes constant with the dimensionality of the system. The only place where a system size-dependence still remains is the calculation of the dynamical maps or propagators which are important for the transfer tensor method. The cost of calculating this solvent-renormalized propagator is the same as the cost of propagating all the elements of the reduced density matrix, which scales as the square of the size. This adaptive kink-filtration technique promises to be instrumental in extending the affordability of path integral simulations for very large systems.

description: Radiofrequency renal denervation (RF RDN) is a catheter-based therapy for uncontrolled hypertension. This model-based analysis examined the cost-effectiveness of RF RDN in Sweden. Clinical events, costs, quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) were projected over 10-year and lifetime horizons using a decision-analytic Markov model. Primary health states, included hypertension alone, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, other symptomatic coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure (HF), end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and death. Health state transitions were informed by multivariate risk equations. Clinical evidence from the SPYRAL HTN-ON MED trial informed the treatment effect modelled (–4.9 mmHg reduction in office systolic blood pressure (SBP) vs. sham). The base case was conducted from the Swedish healthcare payer perspective. The primary outcome was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER),RF RDN vs. standard of care (SoC), evaluated against an assumed willingness-to-pay threshold of SEK 500,000 per QALY gained. Extensive sensitivity analyses were performed. At 10-years, the relative risks with RF RDN were 0.80 for stroke, 0.88 for MI, 0.89 for CHD, 0.72 for HF, 0.96 for ESRD, 0.86 for cardiovascular death and 0.93 for all-cause death. Over lifetime, RF RDN led to incremental costs of SEK 63,136 (total costs SEK 497,498 vs. SEK 434,362) and incremental QALY gain of 0.45 (14.79 vs. 14.34), yielding an ICER of SEK 139,280 per QALY gained. RF RDN was cost-effective across all scenarios and sensitivity analyses. Model projections suggest RF RDN to be a cost-effective therapy for uncontrolled including resistant hypertension in Sweden based on contemporary clinical evidence. Radiofrequency renal denervation (RF RDN) has demonstrated to be a safe and effective adjunct treatment option for uncontrolled hypertension patients in various clinical trials, most recently the SPYRAL HTN-ON MED trial. This analysis examines the economic value of RF RDN therapy, compared to the standard of care (SoC), from both the perspective of the Swedish healthcare system and broader society. RF RDN was found to be highly cost-effective across all scenarios, suggesting its added costs are well justified in light of blood pressure reductions with RF RDN that are projected to decrease clinical events.

description: Topological phases of matter provide a flexible platform to engineer unconventional quantum excitations in quantum materials. Beyond single particle topological matter, in systems with strong quantum many-body correlations, many-body effects can be the driving force for non-trivial topology. Here, we propose a one-dimensional engineered Kondo lattice where the emergence of topological excitations is driven by collective many-body Kondo physics. We first show the existence of topological zero modes in this system by solving the interacting model with tensor networks, and demonstrate their robustness against disorder. To unveil the origin of the topological zero modes, we analyze the associated periodic Anderson model showing that it can be mapped to a topological non-Hermitian model, enabling rationalizing the origin of the topological zero modes. We finally show that the topological invariant of the many-body Kondo lattice can be computed with a correlation matrix pumping method directly with the exact quantum many-body wavefunction. Our results provide a strategy to engineer topological Kondo insulators, highlighting quantum magnetism as a driving force in engineering topological matter.

description: Observational studies showed that galaxy disks are already in place in the first few billion years of the universe. The early disks detected so far, with typical half-light radii of 3 kiloparsecs at stellar masses around 10^11 M_sun for redshift z~3, are significantly smaller than today's disks with similar masses, in agreement with expectations from current galaxy models. Here, we report observations of a giant disk at z=3.25, when the universe was only 2 billion years old, with a half-light radius of 9.6 kiloparsecs and stellar mass of 3.7^+2.6_-2.2x10^11 M_sun. This galaxy is larger than any other kinematically-confirmed disks at similar epochs and surprisingly similar to today's largest disks regarding size and mass. JWST imaging and spectroscopy reveal its spiral morphology and a rotational velocity consistent with local Tully-Fisher relation. Multi-wavelength observations show that it lies in an exceptionally dense environment, where the galaxy number density is over ten times higher than the cosmic average and mergers are frequent. The discovery of such a giant disk suggests the presence of favorable physical conditions for large-disk formation in dense environments in the early universe, which may include efficient accretion of gas carrying coherent angular momentum and non-destructive mergers between exceptionally gas-rich progenitor galaxies.

description: Radiofrequency renal denervation (RF RDN) is a catheter-based therapy for uncontrolled hypertension. This model-based analysis examined the cost-effectiveness of RF RDN in Sweden. Clinical events, costs, quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) were projected over 10-year and lifetime horizons with a decision-analytic Markov model. The model accounted for seven primary health states, including hypertension alone, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, other symptomatic coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure (HF), end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and death; health state transitions were informed by multivariate risk equations. Clinical evidence from the SPYRAL HTN-ON MED trial informed the treatment effect modeled (-4.9 mmHg reduction in office systolic blood pressure (SBP) vs. sham). Costs, utilities, and post-event mortality were obtained from Swedish literature where possible, with the base case conducted from the healthcare payer perspective. The primary outcome of the analysis was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), with the cost-effectiveness of RF RDN vs. standard of care (SoC) evaluated against an assumed willingness-to-pay threshold of SEK 500,000 per QALY gained.

description: We study the properties of a system composed of strongly interacting matter with an isospin imbalance, using as an effective description of QCD the two-flavor Linear Sigma Model with quarks. From the one-loop effective potential, including the two light quarks, pions and sigma contributions, and enforcing the restrictions imposed by chiral symmetry, we show that the development of an isospin condensate comes together with the emergence of a Goldstone mode that provides a constraint for the chiral and isospin condensates as a result of a non-trivial mixing between the charged pions and the sigma. We compute the thermodynamical quantities of interest and in particular the sound velocity squared, showing that it presents a maximum for an isospin chemical potential similar to the one reported by lattice QCD results and also with a similar height. Therefore, we attribute the origin of the peak of the sound velocity to the proper treatment of the Goldstone mode and to the non-trivial mixing of the charged pions and sigma in the isospin condensed phase.

description: Introduction to ATLAS Work Package 1, Ocean Dynamics Driving Ecosystem Response, presented at the 1st ATLAS General Assembly, June 2016.

The ATLAS project is founded upon a new and improved understanding of ocean circulation in the Atlantic. These ocean currents not only connect deep-sea ecosystems, but move vast quantities of heat, salt, and energy across the Atlantic basin. As the Earth’s climate changes we need to understand how this affects Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and what implications this will have for ecosystem functioning, biodiversity, and genetic connectivity.
