The grid integration of intermittent Renewable Energy Sources (RES) causes costs for grid operators due to forecast uncertainty and the resulting production schedule mismatches. These so-called profile service costs are marginal cost components and can be understood as an insurance fee against RES production schedule uncertainty that the system operator incurs due to the obligation to always provide sufficient control reserve capacity for power imbalance mitigation. This paper studies the situation for the German power system and the existing German RES support schemes. The profile service costs incurred by German Transmission System Operators (TSOs) are quantified and means for cost reduction are discussed. In general, profile service costs are dependent on the RES prediction error and the specific workings of the power markets via which the prediction error is balanced. This paper shows both how the prediction error can be reduced in daily operation as well as how profile service costs can be reduced via optimization against power markets and/or active curtailment of RES generation.

We derive the Josephson relation for a dilute Bose gas in the framework of an auxiliary-field resummation of the theory in terms of the normal- and anomalous-density condensates. The mean-field phase diagram of this theory features two critical temperatures, T_c and $T^*, associated with the presence in the system of the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) and superfluid state, respectively. In this context, the Josephson relation shows that the superfluid density is related to a second order parameter, the square of the anomalous-density condensate. This is in contrast with the corresponding result in the Bose gas theory without an anomalous condensate, which predicts that the superfluid density is proportional to the BEC condensate density. Our findings are consistent with the prediction that in the temperature range between T_c and T^* a fraction of the system is in the superfluid state in the absence of the BEC condensate. This situation is similar to the case of dilute Fermi gases, where the superfluid density is proportional to the square of the gap parameter. The Josephson relation relies on the existence of zero energy and momentum excitations showing the intimate relationship between superfluidity and the Goldstone theorem.

Signature of heavier charged Higgs boson, much above the top quark mass, is investigated at the LHC Run 2 experiments, following its decay mode via top and bottom quark focusing on both hadronic and leptonic signal final states. The generic two Higgs doublet model framework is considered with a special emphasis on supersymmetry motivated Type II model. The signal is found to heavily affected by the huge irreducible backgrounds due to the top pair production and QCD events. The jet substructure technique is used to tag moderately boosted top jets in order to reconstruct charged Higgs mass. The simple cut based analysis is performed optimizing various kinematic selections, and the signal sensitivity is found to be reasonable for only lower range of charged Higgs masses for very high luminosity 3000 fb$^{-1}$ option. However, employing the multi-variate analysis(MVA) technique, a remarkable improvement in signal sensitivity is achieved. We find, the charged Higgs signal for the mass range about $300-600$ is observable with 1000 fb$^{-1}$ luminosity option. However, for more high luminosity option 3000 fb$^{-1}$, the discovery potential can be extended to $700-800$ GeV.

The range of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) frequencies covers a domain which at the low end abuts half the laser frequency, omega_0 / 2, according to the simplest SRS theories, corresponding to scatter from electron densities near 1/4 critical. Experiments, on the other hand, clearly point to a frequency gap: SRS is not observed at frequencies close to and above omega_0 / 2, indicating a drastic disruption of scatter from Langmuir waves as electron densities approaches 1/4 critical from below. Several one-dimensional mechanisms, linear and nonlinear, have been proposed to explain this "Raman gap". In this paper we release the one-dimensional constraint by allowing diffraction of the scattered light. In the linear convective regime we find that diffractive effects on SRS from a wide speckled laser beam tend to increase the SRS threshold with increase of density, so long as the interaction length is comparable to or larger than a speckle length. This may lead to a new, diffraction controlled, contribution to the Raman gap.

Given a locally compact Polish space X, a necessary and sufficient condition for a group G of homeomorphisms of X to be the full isometry group of (X,d) for some proper metric d on X is given. It is shown that every locally compact Polish group G acts freely on GxY as the full isometry group of GxY with respect to a certain proper metric on GxY, where Y is an arbitrary locally compact Polish space with (card(G),card(Y)) different from (1,2). Locally compact Polish groups which act effectively and almost transitively on complete metric spaces as full isometry groups are characterized. Locally compact Polish non-Abelian groups on which every left invariant metric is automatically right invariant are characterized and fully classified. It is demonstrated that for every locally compact Polish space X having more than two points the set of proper metrics d such that Iso(X,d) = {id} is dense in the space of all proper metrics on X.

We present two sets of theoretical results on the grouped lasso with overlap of Jacob, Obozinski and Vert (2009) in the linear regression setting. This method allows for joint selection of predictors in sparse regression, allowing for complex structured sparsity over the predictors encoded as a set of groups. This flexible framework suggests that arbitrarily complex structures can be encoded with an intricate set of groups. Our results show that this strategy results in unexpected theoretical consequences for the procedure. In particular, we give two sets of results: (1) finite sample bounds on prediction and estimation, and (2) asymptotic distribution and selection. Both sets of results give insight into the consequences of choosing an increasingly complex set of groups for the procedure, as well as what happens when the set of groups cannot recover the true sparsity pattern. Additionally, these results demonstrate the differences and similarities between the the grouped lasso procedure with and without overlapping groups. Our analysis shows the set of groups must be chosen with caution - an overly complex set of groups will damage the analysis.

The interaction between localized emitters and quantum fields, both in relativistic settings and in the case of ultra-strong couplings, requires non-perturbative methods beyond the rotating-wave approximation. In this work we employ chain-mapping methods to achieve a numerically exact treatment of the interaction between a localized emitter and a scalar quantum field. We extend the application range of these methods beyond emitter observables and apply them to study field observables. We first provide an overview of chain-mapping methods and their physical interpretation, and discuss the thermal double construction for systems coupled to thermal field states. Modelling the emitter as an Unruh-DeWitt particle detector, we then calculate the energy density emitted by a detector coupling strongly to the field. As a stimulating demonstration of the approach's potential, we calculate the radiation emitted from an accelerated detector in the Unruh effect, which is closely related to the thermal double construction as we discuss. We comment on prospects and challenges of the method.

Shot noise at filling factor $\nu=2/5$ is investigated theoretically. It is argued that the "charge" $e^*$ measured by the noise at zero temperature is not the quasiparticle charge but simply the filling factor times the electron charge $e$, namely $e^*=2e/5$. At higher temperature quasiparticles with charge $e^*=\pm e/5$ begin to contribute to the backscattering, and the shot noise gives charge $e^*=e/5$. This theory explains recent experiment by Chung et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{91} (2003) 216804.

Let $\mathcal C :f=0$ be a curve arrangement in the complex projective plane. If $\mathcal C$ contains a curve subarrangement consisting of at least three members in a pencil, then one obtains an explicit syzygy among the partial derivatives of the homogeneous polynomial $f$. In many cases this observation reduces the question about the freeness or the nearly freeness of $\mathcal C$ to an easy computation of Tjurina numbers. Some consequences for Terao's conjecture in the case of line arrangements are also discussed as well as the asphericity of some complements of geometrically constructed free curves. We also show that any line arrangement is a subarrangement of a free, $K(\pi,1)$ line arrangement.

We present spectroscopic imaging observations of the molecular and HI 21cm absorbing cloud at z = 0.885 toward the `Einstein ring' radio source PKS 1830-211. We derive a cloud size between 10 h^{-1} pc and 600 h^{-1} pc, and M(H_2) > 2.6x10^{4} h^{-2} Msolar. The temperature of the ambient radiation field is 4.5+/-0.9 K, consistent with the microwave background temperature at z = 0.885. The velocity difference for absorption on opposite sides of the ring is -146 km s^{-1}, which is consistent with the galaxian rotation velocity derived from gravitational lens models.

Learning methods for relative camera pose estimation have been developed largely in isolation from classical geometric approaches. The question of how to integrate predictions from deep neural networks (DNNs) and solutions from geometric solvers, such as the 5-point algorithm, has as yet remained under-explored. In this paper, we present a novel framework that involves probabilistic fusion between the two families of predictions during network training, with a view to leveraging their complementary benefits in a learnable way. The fusion is achieved by learning the DNN uncertainty under explicit guidance by the geometric uncertainty, thereby learning to take into account the geometric solution in relation to the DNN prediction. Our network features a self-attention graph neural network, which drives the learning by enforcing strong interactions between different correspondences and potentially modeling complex relationships between points. We propose motion parmeterizations suitable for learning and show that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on the challenging DeMoN and ScanNet datasets. While we focus on relative pose, we envision that our pipeline is broadly applicable for fusing classical geometry and deep learning.

The two main issues for managing wrong way risk (WWR) for the credit valuation adjustment (CVA, i.e. WW-CVA) are calibration and hedging. Hence we start from a novel model-free worst-case approach based on static hedging of counterparty exposure with liquid options. We say "start from" because we demonstrate that a naive worst-case approach contains hidden unrealistic assumptions on the variance of the hazard rate (i.e. that it is infinite). We correct this by making it an explicit (finite) parameter and present an efficient method for solving the parametrized model optimizing the hedges. We also prove that WW-CVA is theoretically, but not practically, unbounded. The option-based hedges serve to significantly reduce (typically halve) practical WW-CVA. Thus we propose a realistic and practical option-based worst case CVA.

We present detailed observations of ZTF18abukavn (SN2018gep), discovered in high-cadence data from the Zwicky Transient Facility as a rapidly rising ($1.4\pm0.1$ mag/hr) and luminous ($M_{g,\mathrm{peak}}=-20$ mag) transient. It is spectroscopically classified as a broad-lined stripped-envelope supernova (Ic-BL SN). The high peak luminosity ($L_{\mathrm{bol}} \gtrsim 3 \times 10^{44}$ erg $\mathrm{sec}^{-1}$), the short rise time ($t_{\mathrm{rise}}= 3$ days in $g$-band), and the blue colors at peak ($g-r\sim-0.4$) all resemble the high-redshift Ic-BL iPTF16asu, as well as several other unclassified fast transients. The early discovery of SN2018gep (within an hour of shock breakout) enabled an intensive spectroscopic campaign, including the highest-temperature ($T_{\mathrm{eff}}\gtrsim40,000$ K) spectra of a stripped-envelope SN. A retrospective search revealed luminous ($M_g \sim M_r \approx -14\,$mag) emission in the days to weeks before explosion, the first definitive detection of precursor emission for a Ic-BL. We find a limit on the isotropic gamma-ray energy release $E_\mathrm{\gamma,iso}<4.9 \times 10^{48}$ erg, a limit on X-ray emission $L_{\mathrm{X}} < 10^{40}\,$erg sec$^{-1}$, and a limit on radio emission $\nu L_\nu \lesssim 10^{37}\,$erg sec$^{-1}$. Taken together, we find that the early ($<10\,$days) data are best explained by shock breakout in a massive shell of dense circumstellar material ($0.02\,M_\odot$) at large radii ($3 \times 10^{14}\,$cm) that was ejected in eruptive pre-explosion mass-loss episodes. The late-time ($>10$ days) light curve requires an additional energy source, which could be the radioactive decay of Ni-56.

By extending methods of arXiv:1503.01409, we investigate the bound on the growth of higher point OTOCs by studying their complex analytical properties. We explore some subtleties in our mathematical investigation, and carefully examine the physical interpretation of our result. We also touch upon the possibility of the saturation of the bound in a physical system. Finally, we consider few known examples of higher point OTOCs. For the simplest case of $2n$-point Tremolo correlators the bound on the exponent is proportional to $n$.

We propose to test perturbative QCD in the Regge limit by means of diffractive photon scattering $\gamma p \to \gamma X$ at large $t$ and very high energies $W^2\gg |t|\gg \Lambda^2_{QCD}$. The helicity amplitudes of this process were calculated using the Lipatov solution of the BFKL equation for $t\neq 0$. We found that the perturbatively calculated cross section for this process exceeds the cross section for $J/\Psi$ photoproduction assuming similar kinematics.
