description: Protocols for quantum position verification (QPV) which combine classical and quantum information are insecure in the presence of loss. We study the exact loss-tolerance of the most popular protocol for QPV, which is based on BB84 states, and generalizations of this protocol. By bounding the winning probabilities of a variant of the monogamy-of-entanglement game using semidefinite programming (SDP), we find tight bounds for the relation between loss and error for these extended non-local games.
 These new bounds enable the usage of QPV protocols using more-realistic experimental parameters. We show how these results transfer to the variant protocol which combines $n$ bits of classical information with a single qubit, thereby exhibiting a protocol secure against a linear amount of entanglement (in the classical information $n$) even in the presence of a moderate amount of photon loss. Moreover, this protocol stays secure even if the photon encoding the qubit travels arbitrarily slow in an optical fiber. We also extend this analysis to the case of more than two bases, showing even stronger loss-tolerance for that case.
 Finally, since our semi-definite program bounds a monogamy-of-entanglement game, we describe how they can also be applied to improve the analysis of one-sided device-independent QKD protocols.

description: Atomic-level simulations are widely used to study biomolecules and their dynamics. A common goal in such studies is to compare simulations of a molecular system under several conditions -- for example, with various mutations or bound ligands -- in order to identify differences between the molecular conformations adopted under these conditions. However, the large amount of data produced by simulations of ever larger and more complex systems often renders it difficult to identify the structural features that are relevant for a particular biochemical phenomenon. We present a flexible software package named PENSA that enables a comprehensive and thorough investigation into biomolecular conformational ensembles. It provides featurizations and feature transformations that allow for a complete representation of biomolecules like proteins and nucleic acids, including water and ion binding sites, thus avoiding bias that would come with manual feature selection. PENSA implements methods to systematically compare the distributions of molecular features across ensembles to find the significant differences between them and identify regions of interest. It also includes a novel approach to quantify the state-specific information between two regions of a biomolecule, which allows, e.g., tracing information flow to identify allosteric pathways. PENSA also comes with convenient tools for loading data and visualizing results, making them quick to process and easy to interpret. PENSA is an open-source Python library maintained at https://github.com/drorlab/pensa along with an example workflow and a tutorial. We demonstrate its usefulness in real-world examples by showing how it helps to determine molecular mechanisms efficiently.

Gap Preserving Reductions Between Reconfiguration Problems

description: Combinatorial reconfiguration is a growing research field studying problems on the transformability between a pair of solutions of a search problem. We consider the approximability of optimization variants of reconfiguration problems; e.g., for a Boolean formula $φ$ and two satisfying truth assignments $σ_{\sf s}$ and $σ_{\sf t}$ for $φ$, Maxmin SAT Reconfiguration requires to maximize the minimum fraction of satisfied clauses of $φ$ during transformation from $σ_{\sf s}$ to $σ_{\sf t}$. Solving such optimization variants approximately, we may obtain a reconfiguration sequence comprising almost-satisfying truth assignments.
 In this study, we prove a series of gap-preserving reductions to give evidence that a host of reconfiguration problems are PSPACE-hard to approximate, under some plausible assumption. Our starting point is a new working hypothesis called the Reconfiguration Inapproximability Hypothesis (RIH), which asserts that a gap version of Maxmin CSP Reconfiguration is PSPACE-hard. This hypothesis may be thought of as a reconfiguration analogue of the PCP theorem. Our main result is PSPACE-hardness of approximating Maxmin $3$-SAT Reconfiguration of bounded occurrence under RIH. The crux of its proof is a gap-preserving reduction from Maxmin Binary CSP Reconfiguration to itself of bounded degree. Because a simple application of the degree reduction technique using expander graphs due to Papadimitriou and Yannakakis does not preserve the perfect completeness, we modify the alphabet as if each vertex could take a pair of values simultaneously. To accomplish the soundness requirement, we further apply an explicit family of near-Ramanujan graphs and the expander mixing lemma. As an application of the main result, we demonstrate that under RIH, optimization variants of popular reconfiguration problems are PSPACE-hard to approximate.

description: It is well known that different algorithms perform differently well on an instance of an algorithmic problem, motivating algorithm selection (AS): Given an instance of an algorithmic problem, which is the most suitable algorithm to solve it? As such, the AS problem has received considerable attention resulting in various approaches -- many of which either solve a regression or ranking problem under the hood. Although both of these formulations yield very natural ways to tackle AS, they have considerable weaknesses. On the one hand, correctly predicting the performance of an algorithm on an instance is a sufficient, but not a necessary condition to produce a correct ranking over algorithms and in particular ranking the best algorithm first. On the other hand, classical ranking approaches often do not account for concrete performance values available in the training data, but only leverage rankings composed from such data. We propose HARRIS - Hybrid rAnking and RegRessIon foreSts - a new algorithm selector leveraging special forests, combining the strengths of both approaches while alleviating their weaknesses. HARRIS' decisions are based on a forest model, whose trees are created based on splits optimized on a hybrid ranking and regression loss function. As our preliminary experimental study on ASLib shows, HARRIS improves over standard algorithm selection approaches on some scenarios showing that combining ranking and regression in trees is indeed promising for AS.

description: Conventional cone-beam CT (CBCT) can be easily compromised by scatter and beam hardening artifacts, and the entanglement of scatter and spectral effects introduces additional complexity. In this work, we present the first attempt to develop a stationary spectral modulator with flying focal spot (SMFFS) technology as a promising, low-cost approach to accurately solving the X-ray scattering problem and physically enabling spectral imaging in a unified framework. To deal with the intertwined scatter-spectral challenge, we propose a novel scatter-decoupled material decomposition (SDMD) method for SMFFS based on a hypothesis of scatter similarity. Monte Carlo simulations of a pure-water cylinder phantom with different focal spot deflections show that focal spot deflections within a range of ~2 mm share quite similar scatter distributions overall. Numerical simulations using a clinical abdominal CT dataset demonstrate that SMFFS with SDMD method can achieve better material decomposition and CT number accuracy with less artifacts. Physics experiments on a tabletop CBCT system using a Gammex multi-energy CT phantom an anthropomorphic chest phantom, are carried out to demonstrate the feasibility of CBCT spectral imaging with SMFFS. For the chest phantom, the root mean square error (RMSE) in selected regions of interest (ROIs) of virtual monochromatic image (VMI) at 70 keV is 11.8 HU for SMFFS CB scan, and 14.5 and 437.6 HU for sequential 80/140 kVp (DKV) CB scan with and without scatter correction, respectively. Also, the non-uniformity among selected regions is 14.1 HU for SMFFS CB scan, and 59.4 and 184.0 HU for the DKV CB scan with and without a traditional scatter correction method, respectively. Our preliminary results show that SMFFS can enable spectral imaging with simultaneous scatter correction for CBCT and effectively improve its quantitative imaging performance.

description: The tropical cyclone formation process is one of the most complex natural phenomena which is governed by various atmospheric, oceanographic, and geographic factors that varies with time and space. Despite several years of research, accurately predicting tropical cyclone formation remains a challenging task. While the existing numerical models have inherent limitations, the machine learning models fail to capture the spatial and temporal dimensions of the causal factors behind TC formation. In this study, a deep learning model has been proposed that can forecast the formation of a tropical cyclone with a lead time of up to 60 hours with high accuracy. The model uses the high-resolution reanalysis data ERA5 (ECMWF reanalysis 5th generation), and best track data IBTrACS (International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship) to forecast tropical cyclone formation in six ocean basins of the world. For 60 hours lead time the models achieve an accuracy in the range of 86.9% - 92.9% across the six ocean basins. The model takes about 5-15 minutes of training time depending on the ocean basin, and the amount of data used and can predict within seconds, thereby making it suitable for real-life usage.

description: We prove that, for any infinite-type surface $S$, the integral homology of the closure of the compactly-supported mapping class group $\overline{\mathrm{PMap}_c(S)}$ and of the Torelli group $\mathcal{T}(S)$ is uncountable in every positive degree. By our results in arXiv:2211.07470 and other known computations, such a statement cannot be true for the full mapping class group $\mathrm{Map}(S)$ for all infinite-type surfaces $S$. However, we are still able to prove that the integral homology of $\mathrm{Map}(S)$ is uncountable in all positive degrees for a large class of infinite-type surfaces $S$. The key property of this class of surfaces is, roughly, that the space of ends of the surface $S$ contains a limit point of topologically distinguished points. Our result includes in particular all finite-genus surfaces having countable end spaces with a unique point of maximal Cantor-Bendixson rank $α$, where $α$ is a successor ordinal. We also observe an order-$10$ element in the first homology of the pure mapping class group of any surface of genus $2$, answering a recent question of G. Domat.

South Africa voucher material: SAIAB 25936.
South African distribution: False Bay (WC) to Algoa Bay (EC), but likely wider ranging along the coast.
Remarks: The species has a complicated taxonomic history in South Africa having been confused with Pateobatis fai in KZN. Smith [A.] (in M̹ller & Henle, 1841) described Trygon purpurea (= P. violacea) citing South Africa as the type locality, but the species apparently was not seen again until a specimen was caught off Kalk Bay in False Bay in 1933 (Barnard, 1934). Although Wallace (1967c) referred to Dasyatis purpureus, his description and figure 24 are clearly that of P. fai or a similar looking species, but not P. violacea. The species was once thought to be quite rare in South Africa, with only a few specimens known (Compagno et al., 1989). However, it appears to be somewhat commonly caught in the chokka (= squid) fishery, but is usually not reported as bycatch.
Conservation status: LC (2019).

description: The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in shallow InAs quantum wells, combined with epitaxial aluminum, is commonly used to study topological superconductivity. Key features include strong spin-orbit coupling, a high effective g-factor, and the ability to manage proximity-induced superconductivity. My thesis discusses two aspects of this unique material. In the first section, I report on the transport characteristics of shallow InGaAs/InAs/InGaAs quantum wells and evaluate the effect of modulation doping on these shallow InAs quantum well structures. We systematically investigate the magnetotransport properties in relation to doping density and spacer thickness. Optimized samples show peak mobilities exceeding 100,000 cm2/Vs at n2DEG < 1012 cm-2 in gated Hall bar, marking the highest mobility observed in this type of heterostructure. Our findings suggest that the doping layer moves the electron wave function away from the surface, minimizing surface scattering and enhancing mobility. This mobility improvement does not compromise Rashba spin-orbit coupling or induced superconductivity. In the second section, motivated by a theoretical study by Peng et al., we explore tunneling spectroscopy measurements on DC current biased planar Josephson junctions made on an undoped hybrid epitaxial Al-InAs 2DEG heterostructure. We observe four tunneling conductance peaks in the spectroscopy that can be adjusted by DC current bias. Our analysis indicates that these results come from strong coupling between the tunneling probe and the superconducting leads, rather than from Floquet engineering. We also touch on potential improvements to the device's design and materials. This work lays the groundwork for further investigation of Floquet physics in planar Josephson junctions. This thesis ends with a discussion of other unusual physics that could be explored in these novel shallow InAs quantum wells coupled with epitaxial aluminum.

description: We perform a simultaneous global analysis of hadron fragmentation functions (FFs) to various charged hadrons (π±, K±, and p/p¯) at next-to-leading order in QCD. The world data include results from electron-positron single-inclusive annihilation, semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering, as well as proton-proton collisions including jet fragmentation measurements for the first time, which lead to strong constraints on the gluon fragmentations. By carefully selecting hadron kinematics to ensure the validity of QCD factorization and the convergence of perturbative calculations, we achieve a satisfying best fit with χ2/d.o.f.=0.90. The total momentum of u, d quarks and gluon carried by light charged hadrons have been determined precisely, urging precision determinations of FFs to neutral hadrons for a test of fundamental sum rules in QCD fragmentation.

description: We present the study of an end-to-end multi-track reconstruction algorithm for the central drift chamber of the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider using Graph Neural Networks for an unknown number of particles. The algorithm uses detector hits as inputs without pre-filtering to simultaneously predict the number of track candidates in an event and and their kinematic properties. In a second step, we cluster detector hits for each track candidate to pass to a track fitting algorithm. Using a realistic full detector simulation including beam-induced backgrounds and detector noise taken from actual collision data, we find significant improvements in track finding efficiencies for tracks in a variety of different event topologies compared to the existing baseline algorithm used in Belle II. For events with a hypothetical long-lived massive particle with a mass in the GeV-range decaying uniformly along its flight direction into two charged particles, the GNN achieves a combined track finding and fitting efficiency of 85.4% with a fake rate of 2.5%, compared to 52.2% and 4.1% for the baseline algorithm. This is the first end-to-end multi-track machine learning algorithm for a drift chamber detector that has been utilized in a realistic particle physics environment.

description: The rapid growth of federated1 tools, platforms, analytics and learning approaches are revolutionising data analysis by enabling insights without the need to consolidate data files in a single location. Such approaches hold the potential to scale analyses significantly. However, the challenge lies in how Trusted Research Environments (TREs) can support this constantly evolving analytical landscape. Building a future-proof blueprint based on any single federated tool, platform, or technique is unrealistic. Instead, we must explore how existing international standards can act as adaptable frameworks.

The Digital Objects & Workflows Demonstrator aims to evidence the power of these standards and middleware to integrate multiple federated platforms and analytics through a single software installation. By providing practical evidence, this work informs the blueprint design for TREs. Our work has developed a functional module for secure and interoperable workflow execution within TREs, addressing the growing need for standardised, FAIR2-compliant computational analyses across federated compute infrastructures.

By building on the EOSC-ENTRUST Blueprint’s architecture components and aligning closely with standards from the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH) and the Five Safes RO-Crate, WP19 seeks to demonstrate how workflows can be managed and executed in TREs in a secure and reproducible manner while ensuring data sovereignty.

description: Altruistic punishment, where individuals incur personal costs to punish others who have harmed third parties, presents an evolutionary conundrum as it undermines individual fitness. Resolving this puzzle is crucial for understanding the emergence and maintenance of human cooperation. This study investigates the role of an alternative strategy, the exit option, in explaining altruistic punishment. We analyze a two-stage prisoner's dilemma game in well-mixed and networked populations, considering both finite and infinite scenarios. Our findings reveal that the exit option does not significantly enhance altruistic punishment in well-mixed populations. However, in networked populations, the exit option enables the existence of altruistic punishment and gives rise to complex dynamics, including cyclic dominance and bi-stable states. This research contributes to our understanding of costly punishment and sheds light on the effectiveness of different voluntary participation strategies in addressing the conundrum of punishment.

description: We present a new explicit formula for the determinant that contains superexponentially fewer terms than the usual Leibniz formula. As an immediate corollary of our formula, we show that the tensor rank of the $n \times n$ determinant tensor is no larger than the $n$-th Bell number, which is much smaller than the previously best known upper bounds when $n \geq 4$. Over fields of non-zero characteristic we obtain even tighter upper bounds, and we also slightly improve the known lower bounds. In particular, we show that the $4 \times 4$ determinant over $\mathbb{F}_2$ has tensor rank exactly equal to $12$. Our results also improve upon the best known upper bound for the Waring rank of the determinant when $n \geq 17$, and lead to a new family of axis-aligned polytopes that tile $\mathbb{R}^n$.

description: In the field of Automated Planning there is often the need for a set of planning problems from a particular domain, e.g., to be used as training data for Machine Learning or as benchmarks in planning competitions. In most cases, these problems are created either by hand or by a domain-specific generator, putting a burden on the human designers. In this paper we propose NeSIG, to the best of our knowledge the first domain-independent method for automatically generating planning problems that are valid, diverse and difficult to solve. We formulate problem generation as a Markov Decision Process and train two generative policies with Deep Reinforcement Learning to generate problems with the desired properties. We conduct experiments on three classical domains, comparing our approach against handcrafted, domain-specific instance generators and various ablations. Results show NeSIG is able to automatically generate valid and diverse problems of much greater difficulty (15.5 times more on geometric average) than domain-specific generators, while simultaneously reducing human effort when compared to them. Additionally, it can generalize to larger problems than those seen during training.

description: The supermoiré lattice, built by stacking two moiré patterns, provides a platform for creating flat mini-bands and studying electron correlations. An ultimate challenge in assembling a graphene supermoiré lattice is in the deterministic control of its rotational alignment, which is made highly aleatory due to the random nature of the edge chirality and crystal symmetry of each component layer. Employing the so-called golden rule of three, here we present an experimental strategy to overcome this challenge and realize the controlled alignment of double-aligned hBN/graphene/hBN supermoiré lattice, where graphene is precisely aligned with both top hBN and bottom hBN. Remarkably, we find that the crystallographic edge of neighboring graphite can be used to better guide the stacking alignment, as demonstrated by the controlled production of 20 moiré samples with an accuracy better than 0.2 degree. Finally, we extend our technique to other strongly correlated electron systems, such as low-angle twisted bilayer graphene and ABC-stacked trilayer graphene, providing a strategy for flat-band engineering in these moiré materials.

description: Following a transfemoral amputation (TFA), numerous changes in movement patterns during gait can occur. Frontal plane hip and pelvis compensatory strategies are recognized among individuals with a TFA, some thought to aid in safe foot clearance during the swing phase of gait. The aim of this case study was to evaluate the effect of an active ankle dorsiflexion provided by a microprocessor-controlled prosthetic foot, as well as the effect of individualized training on these parameters. In this case study, a 42-year-old male underwent 3 D gait analysis. Data were captured for two conditions; with a microprocessor-controlled prosthetic foot with active/inactive ankle dorsiflexion, during two sessions; before and after 6 weeks of individualized training. The main outcomes analyzed were frontal plane pelvis and hip kinematics. Prior to training, pelvic lift decreased slightly, coupled with an increase in hip abduction, during gait with the active ankle dorsiflexion of a prosthetic foot, compared to inactive dorsiflexion. After the training period, the pelvic lift was further decreased and an increase in hip adduction was concurrently seen. The results of this case study indicate a positive effect of the active dorsiflexion of the prosthetic foot but highlight the need for specific training after prescription of a microprocessor prosthetic foot.Implications for rehabilitationDecreased compensatory changes seen in this case study indicate a positive effect of the active dorsiflexion of the prosthetic foot, especially after a 6-week training period.Individualized training should be aimed at helping the user utilizing the benefits of the active dorsiflexion of the microprocessor prosthetic foot, implementing exercises that improve gait quality, technical training for this specific foot, strength training and balance exercises. Decreased compensatory changes seen in this case study indicate a positive effect of the active dorsiflexion of the prosthetic foot, especially after a 6-week training period. Individualized training should be aimed at helping the user utilizing the benefits of the active dorsiflexion of the microprocessor prosthetic foot, implementing exercises that improve gait quality, technical training for this specific foot, strength training and balance exercises.
