Impact of Current on Static and Kinetic Depinning Fields of Domain Wall in Ferromagnetic Nanostrip
The impact of current on static and kinetic depinning fields of a domain wall in an one dimensional ferromagnetic nanostrip is investigated by solving the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation with adiabatic and non-adiabatic spin-transfer torques analytically and numerically. The results show that in the absence of current, the static depinning field is greater than the kinetic depinning field and both the depinning fields decrease by the increase of current applied in a direction opposite to the direction of the applied field. Both the depinning fields can also be tuned by the current to make them equal.

Critical analysis and remedy of switching failures in straintronic logic using Bennett clocking in the presence of thermal fluctuations
Straintronic logic is a promising platform for beyond Moore's law computing. Using Bennett clocking mechanism, information can propagate through an array of strain-mediated multiferroic nanomagnets exploiting the dipolar coupling between the magnets without having to physically interconnect them. Here we perform a critical analysis of switching failures, i.e., error in information propagation due to thermal fluctuations through a chain of such straintronic devices. We solved stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation considering room-temperature thermal perturbations and show that magnetization switching may fail due to inherent magnetization dynamics accompanied by thermally broadened switching delay distribution. Avenues available to circumvent such issue are proposed.

Landauer limit of energy dissipation in a magnetostrictive particle
According to Landauer's principle, a minimum amount of energy proportional to temperature must be dissipated during the erasure of a classical bit of information compensating the entropy loss, thereby linking the information and thermodynamics. Here we show that the Landauer limit of energy dissipation is achievable in a shape-anisotropic single-domain magnetostrictive nanomagnet having two mutually anti-parallel degenerate magnetization states that store a bit of information. We model the magnetization dynamics using stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in the presence of thermal fluctuations and show that on average the Landauer bound is satisfied, i.e., it accords to the generalized Landauer's principle for small systems with stochastic fluctuations.

Pseudo-Spin Based Dynamical Model for Polarisation Switching in Ferroelectrics
A microscopic view of the response of the electric dipoles to a dynamic external field in a ferroelectric (FE) chain has been studied by two spin dynamics methods. One is the prominent micromagnetic approach, and the other is the micromagnetic approach with a variable size of the pseudo-spin. The energy stored in the ferroelectric chain is described by the transverse Ising model (TIM) with electric pseudo-spins. The simulations are based on a modified Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation which is precession free. The results obtained are shown and compared with the result supplemented by Landau-Devonshire (L-D) theory in the Appendix.

Explicit Construction of AG Codes from Generalized Hermitian Curves
We present multi-point algebraic geometric codes overstepping the Gilbert-Varshamov bound. The construction is based on the generalized Hermitian curve introduced by A. Bassa, P. Beelen, A. Garcia, and H. Stichtenoth. These codes are described in detail by constrcting a generator matrix. It turns out that these codes have nice properties similar to those of Hermitian codes. It is shown that the duals are also such codes and an explicit formula is given.

Reflexive insensitive modal logics
We analyze a class of modal logics rendered insensitive to reflexivity by way of a modification to the semantic definition of the modal operator. We explore the extent to which these logics can be characterized, and prove a general completeness theorem on the basis of a translation between normal modal logics and their reflexive-insensitive counterparts. Lastly, we provide a sufficient semantic condition describing when a similarly general soundness result is also available.

Spin Dynamics Simulation of the Magneto-Electric Effect in a Composite Multiferroic Chain
A composite multiferroic chain with an interfacial linear magneto-electric coupling is used to study the magnetic and electric responses to an external magnetic or electric field. The simulation uses continuous spin dynamics through the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations of the magnetic spin and the electric pseudo-spin. The results demonstrate an accurate description of the distribution of the magnetisation and polarisation are induced by applied electric and magnetic field, respectively.

Reaction diffusion dynamics and the Schryer-Walker solution for domain walls of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation
We study the dynamics of the equation obtained by Schryer and Walker for the motion of domain walls. The reduced equation is a reaction diffusion equation for the angle between the applied field and the magnetization vector. If the hard axis anisotropy $K_d$ is much larger than the easy axis anisotropy $K_u$, there is a range of applied fields where the dynamics does not select the Schryer-Walker solution. We give analytic expressions for the speed of the domain wall in this regime and the conditions for its existence.

Dynamic Response in a Finite Size Composite Multiferroic Thin Film
Composite multiferroics, heterostructures of ferromagnetic (FM) and ferroelectric (FE) materials, are characterized by a remarkable magnetoelectric effect at the interface. Previous work has supported the ferromagnetic structure with magnetic spins and the ferroelectric with pseudospins which act as electric dipoles in a microscopic model, coupled with a magnetoelectric interaction [J. Appl. Phys. 118, 124109 (2015)]. In this work, by solving the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, the electric-field-induced magnetization switching in a twisted boundary condition has been studied, and a behavior of domain wall in the ferromagnetic structure is discussed.

Existence of travelling-wave solutions representing domain wall motion in a thin ferromagnetic nanowire
We study the dynamics of a domain wall under the influence of applied magnetic fields in a one-dimensional ferromagnetic nanowire, governed by the Landau--Lifshitz--Gilbert equation. Existence of travelling-wave solutions close to two known static solutions is proven using implicit-function-theorem-type arguments.

On Simultaneous Percolation with Two Disk Types
In this paper we consider the simultaneous percolation of two Gilbert disk models. The two models are connected through excluding disks, which prevent elements of the second model to be in the vicinity of the first model. Under these assumptions we characterize the region of densities in which the two models both have a unique infinite connected component. The motivation for this work is the co-existence of two cognitive radio networks.

Toward a New Microscopic Framework for Kondo Lattice Materials
Understanding the emergence and subsequent behavior of heavy electrons in Kondo lattice materials is one of the grand challenges in condensed matter physics. In this perspective we review the progress that has been made during the past decade and suggest some directions for future research. Our focus will be on developing a new microscopic framework that incorporates the basic concepts that emerge from a phenomenological description of the key experimental findings.

The Eddy Current-LLG Equations-Part I: FEM-BEM Coupling
We analyse a numerical method for the coupled system of the eddy current equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in a bounded domain. The unbounded domain is discretised by means of finite-element/boundary-element coupling. Even though the considered problem is strongly nonlinear, the numerical approach is constructed such that only two linear systems per time step have to be solved. In this first part of the paper, we prove unconditional weak convergence (of a subsequence) of the finite-element solutions towards a weak solution. A priori error estimates will be presented in the second part.

The Eddy Current--LLG Equations: FEM-BEM Coupling and A Priori Error Estimates
We analyze a numerical method for the coupled system of the eddy current equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in a bounded domain. The unbounded domain is discretized by means of finite-element/boundary-element coupling. Even though the considered problem is strongly nonlinear, the numerical approach is constructed such that only two linear systems per time step have to be solved. We prove unconditional weak convergence (of a subsequence) of the finite-element solutions towards a weak solution. We establish a priori error estimates if a sufficiently smooth strong solution exists. Numerical experiments underlining the theoretical results are presented.

Partial Category Actions on Sets and Topological Spaces
We introduce (continuous) partial category actions on sets (topological spaces) and show that each such action admits a universal globalization. Thereby, we obtain a simultaneous generalization of corresponding results for groups, by Kellendonk and Lawson, and for monoids, by Megrelishvili and Schroder. We apply this result to the special case of partial groupoid actions where we obtain a sharpening of a result by Gilbert, concerning ordered groupoids, in the sense that mediating functions between universal globalizations always are injective.

Interlayer interaction in multilayer CoPt/Co structures
We report a study of interlayer exchange interaction in multilayer CoPt/Co structures consisting of periodic CoPt multilayer film with an "easy axis" anisotropy and thick Co layer with an "easy plane" anisotropy separated by Pt spacer with variable thickness. The magnetooptical Kerr effect (MOKE) and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) measurements show up the essentially non-collinear state of magnetic moments of the layers and strong exchange coupling between CoPt and Co subsystems. The estimation of effective anisotropy and exchange coupling in a simple model based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation describing magnetization dynamics was performed.

On self-dual double negacirculant codes
Double negacirculant (DN) codes are the analogues in odd characteristic of double circulant codes. Self-dual DN codes of odd dimension are shown to be consta-dihedral. Exact counting formulae are derived for DN codes. The special class of length a power of two is studied by means of Dickson polynomials, and is shown to contain families of codes with relative distances satisfying a modified Gilbert-Varshamov bound.

Tailoring the topological details of the magnetic skyrmion by the spin configuration at the edges
The magnetic skyrmion structure can be formed in the chiral magnets (CMs) with strong Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions. In this work, we propose a way of artificially tailoring the topological details of the skyrmion such as its radial and whirling symmetric patterns by external magnetic fields besieging the CM slab. As long as the boundary magnetic fields are strong enough to fix the boundary ferromagnetism, the attained skyrmion profile is stable over time. The dynamics of spins is considered by numerically solving the non-equilibrium Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation.

Entanglement manipulation by a magnetic pulse in Gd3N@C80 endohedral metallofullerenes on a Cu(001) surface
In this paper we present result of theoretical calculation of entanglement within a spin structure of Gd3N@C80 under the in uence of rectangular impulses. Research is conducted using general spin Hamiltonian within SSNQ (spin system of N-qubits). Calculation of entanglement with variable impulse is performed using the time-dependent Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation with spin-spin correlation function. We show that long rectangular impulse (t=850ps) can be used for maintaining of entanglement value. This allows us to offer a new algorithm which can be used to reduce the challenge of decoherence to logical scheme optimization.

Optical tomography on graphs
We present an algorithm for solving inverse problems on graphs analogous to those arising in diffuse optical tomography for continuous media. In particular, we formulate and analyze a discrete version of the inverse Born series, proving estimates characterizing the domain of convergence, approximation errors, and stability of our approach. We also present a modification which allows additional information on the structure of the potential to be incorporated, facilitating recovery for a broader class of problems.

Interaction Between a Domain Wall and Spin Supercurrent in Easy-cone Magnets
A domain wall and spin supercurrent can coexist in magnets with easy-cone anisotropy owing to simultaneous spontaneous breaking of Z$_2$ and U(1) symmetries. Their interaction is theoretically investigated in quasi one-dimensional ferromagnets within the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert phenomenology. Specifically, we show that spin supercurrent can exert the torque on a domain wall and thereby drive it. We also show, as a reciprocal phenomenon, a field-induced motion of a domain wall can generate spin supercurrent.

A Local Inverse Formula and a Factorization
When a matrix has a banded inverse there is a remarkable formula that quickly computes that inverse, using only local information in the original matrix. This local inverse formula holds more generally, for matrices with sparsity patterns that are examples of chordal graphs or perfect eliminators. The formula has a long history going back at least as far as the completion problem for covariance matrices with missing data. Maximum entropy estimates, log-determinants, rank conditions, the Nullity Theorem and wavelets are all closely related, and the formula has found wide applications in machine learning and graphical models. We describe that local inverse and explain how it can be understood as a matrix factorization.

Parametric frequency mixing in the magneto-elastically driven FMR-oscillator
We demonstrate the nonlinear frequency conversion of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) frequency by optically excited elastic waves in a thin metallic film on dielectric substrates. Time-resolved probing of the magnetization directly witnesses magneto-elastically driven second harmonic generation, sum- and difference frequency mixing from two distinct frequencies, as well as parametric downconversion of each individual drive frequency. Starting from the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations, we derive an analytical equation of an elastically driven nonlinear parametric oscillator and show that frequency mixing is dominated by the parametric modulation of FMR frequency.

Magnonic analog of relativistic Zitterbewegung in an antiferromagnetic spin chain
We theoretically investigate the spin wave (magnon) excitations in a classical antiferromagnetic spin chain with easy-axis anisotropy. We obtain a Dirac-like equation by linearizing the Landau- Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in this antiferromagnetic system, in contrast to the ferromagnetic system in which a Schr\"{o}dinger equation is derived. The Hamiltonian operator in the Dirac-like equation is a pseudo-Hermitian. We compute and demonstrate the relativistic Zitterbewegung (trembling motion) in the antiferromagnetic spin chain by measuring the expectation values of the wave packet position.

The norm of the Fourier transform on compact or discrete abelian groups
We calculate the norm of the Fourier operator from $L^p(X)$ to $L^q(\hat{X})$ when $X$ is an infinite locally compact abelian group that is, furthermore, compact or discrete. This subsumes the sharp Hausdorff-Young inequality on such groups. In particular, we identify the region in $(p,q)$-space where the norm is infinite, generalizing a result of Fournier, and setting up a contrast with the case of finite abelian groups, where the norm was determined by Gilbert and Rzeszotnik. As an application, uncertainty principles on such groups expressed in terms of R\'enyi entropies are discussed.

Optimizing Quantiles in Preference-based Markov Decision Processes
In the Markov decision process model, policies are usually evaluated by expected cumulative rewards. As this decision criterion is not always suitable, we propose in this paper an algorithm for computing a policy optimal for the quantile criterion. Both finite and infinite horizons are considered. Finally we experimentally evaluate our approach on random MDPs and on a data center control problem.

Magnon Condensation and Spin Superfluidity
We consider the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation of quasi-equilibrium magnons which leads to a spin superfluidity, the coherent quantum transfer of magnetization in magnetic materials. These phenomena are beyond the classical Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert paradigm. The critical conditions for excited magnon density for ferro- and antiferromagnets, bulk and thin films are estimated and discussed. The BEC should occur in the antiferromagnetic hematite at much lower excited magnon density compared to the ferromagnetic YIG.

Transient spin dynamics in a single-molecule magnet
We explore the limitations and validity of semi-classically formulated spin equations of motion. Using a single-molecule magnet as a test model, we employ three qualitatively different approximation schemes. From a microscopic model, we derive a generalized spin equation of motion in which the parameters have a non-local time-dependence. This dynamical equation is simplified to the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation with i) time-dependent, and ii) time-independent parameters. We show that transient dynamics is essentially non-existing in the latter approximation, while the former breaks down in the regime of strong coupling between the spin and the itinerant electrons.

On the VC-Dimension of Binary Codes
We investigate the asymptotic rates of length-$n$ binary codes with VC-dimension at most $dn$ and minimum distance at least $\delta n$. Two upper bounds are obtained, one as a simple corollary of a result by Haussler and the other via a shortening approach combining Sauer-Shelah lemma and the linear programming bound. Two lower bounds are given using Gilbert-Varshamov type arguments over constant-weight and Markov-type sets.

Long quasi-polycyclic $t-$CIS codes
We study complementary information set codes of length $tn$ and dimension $n$ of order $t$ called ($t-$CIS code for short). Quasi-cyclic and quasi-twisted $t$-CIS codes are enumerated by using their concatenated structure. Asymptotic existence results are derived for one-generator and have co-index $n$ by Artin's conjecture for quasi cyclic and special case for quasi twisted. This shows that there are infinite families of long QC and QT $t$-CIS codes with relative distance satisfying a modified Varshamov-Gilbert bound for rate $1/t$ codes. Similar results are defined for the new and more general class of quasi-polycyclic codes introduced recently by Berger and Amrani.

On the Lagrangian branched transport model and the equivalence with its Eulerian formulation
First we present two classical models of Branched Transport: the Lagrangian model introduced by Bernot, Caselles, Morel, Maddalena, Solimini, and the Eulerian model introduced by Xia. An emphasis is put on the Lagrangian model, for which we give a complete proof of existence of minimizers in a --hopefully-- simplified manner. We also treat in detail some $\sigma$-finiteness and rectifiability issues to yield rigorously the energy formula connecting the irrigation cost I$\alpha$ to the Gilbert Energy E$\alpha$. Our main purpose is to use this energy formula and exploit a Smirnov decomposition of vector flows, which was proved via the Dacorogna-Moser approach by Santambrogio, to establish the equivalence between the Lagrangian and Eulerian models.

On Low-Risk Heavy Hitters and Sparse Recovery Schemes
We study the heavy hitters and related sparse recovery problems in the low-failure probability regime. This regime is not well-understood, and has only been studied for non-adaptive schemes. The main previous work is one on sparse recovery by Gilbert et al.(ICALP'13). We recognize an error in their analysis, improve their results, and contribute new non-adaptive and adaptive sparse recovery algorithms, as well as provide upper and lower bounds for the heavy hitters problem with low failure probability.

Micromagnetic simulation study of a disordered model for one-dimensional granular perovskite manganite oxide nanostructures
Chemical techniques are an efficient method to synthesize one-dimensional perovskite manganite oxide nanostructures with a granular morphology, that is, formed by arrays of monodomain magnetic nanoparticles. Integrating the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, we simulate the dynamics of a simple disordered model for such materials that only takes into account the morphological characteristics of their nanograins. We show that it is possible to describe reasonably well experimental hysteresis loops reported in the literature for single La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO_3 nanotubes and powders of these nanostructures, simulating small systems consisting of only 100 nanoparticles.

Construction of asymptotically good locally repairable codes via automorphism groups of function fields
Locally repairable codes have been investigated extensively in recent years due to practical application in distributed storage as well as theoretical interest. However, not much work on asymptotical behavior of locally repairable codes has been done until now. In particular, there is a little result on constructive lower bound on asymptotical behavior of locally repairable codes. In this paper, we extend the construction given in \cite{BTV17} via automorphism groups of function field towers. The main advantage of our construction is to allow more flexibility of locality. Furthermore, we show that the Gilbert-Varshamov type bound on locally repairable codes can be improved for all sufficiently large alphabet size $q$.

Stability of axisymmetric chiral skyrmions
We examine topological solitons in a minimal variational model for a chiral magnet, so-called chiral skyrmions. In the regime of large background fields, we prove linear stability of axisymmetric chiral skyrmions under arbitrary perturbations in the energy space, a long-standing open question in physics literature. Moreover, we show strict local minimality of axisymmetric chiral skyrmions and nearby existence of moving soliton solution for the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation driven by a small spin transfer torque.

Mutual synchronization of spin-torque oscillators consisting of perpendicularly magnetized free layers and in-plane magnetized pinned layers
A mutual synchronization of spin-torque oscillators coupled through current injection is studied theoretically. Models of electrical coupling in parallel and series circuits are proposed. Solving the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, excitation of in-phase or antiphase synchronization, depending on the ways the oscillators are connected, is found. It is also found from both analytical and numerical calculations that the current-frequency relations for both parallel and series circuits are the same as that for a single spin-torque oscillator.

Pharmacokinetics Simulations for Studying Correlates of Prevention Efficacy of Passive HIV-1 Antibody Prophylaxis in the Antibody Mediated Prevention (AMP) Study
A key objective in two phase 2b AMP clinical trials of VRC01 is to evaluate whether drug concentration over time, as estimated by non-linear mixed effects pharmacokinetics (PK) models, is associated with HIV infection rate. We conducted a simulation study of marker sampling designs, and evaluated the effect of study adherence and sub-cohort sample size on PK model estimates in multiple-dose studies. With m=120, even under low adherence (about half of study visits missing per participant), reasonably unbiased and consistent estimates of most fixed and random effect terms were obtained. Coarsened marker sampling schedules were also studied.

Nanostructured Ceramic Oxides with a Slow Crack Growth Resistance Close to Covalent Materials
Oxide ceramics are sensitive to slow crack growth because adsorption of water can take place at the crack tip, leading to a strong decrease of the surface energy in humid (or air) conditions. This is a major drawback concerning demanding, long-term applications such as orthopaedic implants. Here we show that a specific nanostructuration of ceramic oxides can lead to a crack resistance never reached before, similar to that of covalent ceramics.

Quantum Annealed Criticality
Experimentally there exist many materials with first-order phase transitions at finite temperature that display quantum criticality. Classically a strain-energy density coupling is known to drive first-order transitions in compressible systems, and here we generalize this Larkin-Pikin mechanism to the quantum case. We show that if the T=0 system lies above its upper critical dimension, the line of first-order transitions can end in a quantum annealed critical point where zero-point fluctuations restore the underlying criticality of the order parameter.

A thermally driven spin-transfer-torque system far from equilibrium: enhancement of the thermoelectric current via pumping current
We consider a small itinerant ferromagnet exposed to an external magnetic field and strongly driven by a thermally induced spin current. For this model, we derive the quasi-classical equations of motion for the magnetization where the effects of a dynamical non-equilibrium distribution function are taken into account self-consistently. We obtain the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation supplemented by a spin-transfer torque term of Slonczewski form. We identify a regime of persistent precessions in which we find an enhancement of the thermoelectric current by the pumping current.

But How Does It Work in Theory? Linear SVM with Random Features
We prove that, under low noise assumptions, the support vector machine with $N\ll m$ random features (RFSVM) can achieve the learning rate faster than $O(1/\sqrt{m})$ on a training set with $m$ samples when an optimized feature map is used. Our work extends the previous fast rate analysis of random features method from least square loss to 0-1 loss. We also show that the reweighted feature selection method, which approximates the optimized feature map, helps improve the performance of RFSVM in experiments on a synthetic data set.

Optimizing a Generalized Gini Index in Stable Marriage Problems: NP-Hardness, Approximation and a Polynomial Time Special Case
This paper deals with fairness in stable marriage problems. The idea studied here is to achieve fairness thanks to a Generalized Gini Index (GGI), a well-known criterion in inequality measurement, that includes both the egalitarian and utilitarian criteria as special cases. We show that determining a stable marriage optimizing a GGI criterion of agents' disutilities is an NP-hard problem. We then provide a polynomial time 2-approximation algorithm in the general case, as well as an exact algorithm which is polynomial time in the case of a constant number of non-zero weights parametrizing the GGI criterion.

Out-of-plane auto-oscillation in spin Hall oscillator with additional polarizer
The theoretical investigation on magnetization dynamics excited by the spin Hall effect in metallic multilayers having two ferromagnets is discussed. The relaxation of the transverse spin in one ferromagnet enables us to manipulate the direction of the spin-transfer torque excited in another ferromagnet, although the spin-polarization originally generated by the spin Hall effect is geometrically fixed. Solving the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert-Slonczewski equation, the possibility to excite an out-of-plane auto-oscillation of an in-plane magnetized ferromagnet is presented. An application to magnetic recording using microwave-assisted magnetization reversal is also discussed.

Most Graphs are Knotted
We present four models for a random graph and show that, in each case, the probability that a graph is intrinsically knotted goes to one as the number of vertices increases. We also argue that, for $k \geq 18$, most graphs of order $k$ are intrinsically knotted and, for $k \geq 2n+9$, most of order $k$ are not $n$-apex. We observe that $p(n) = 1/n$ is the threshold for intrinsic knotting and linking in Gilbert's model.

Entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes over arbitrary finite fields
We prove that the known formulae for computing the optimal number of maximally entangled pairs required for entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) over the binary field hold for codes over arbitrary finite fields as well. We also give a Gilbert-Varshamov bound for EAQECCs and constructions of EAQECCs coming from punctured self-orthogonal linear codes which are valid for any finite field.

Coupled dynamics of magnetizations in spin-Hall oscillators via spin current injection
An array of spin torque oscillators (STOs) for practical applications such as pattern recognition was recently proposed, where several STOs are connected by a common nonmagnet. In this structure, in addition to the electric and/or magnetic interactions proposed in previous works, the STOs are spontaneously coupled to each other through the nonmagnetic connector, due to the injection of spin current. Solving the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation numerically for such system consisting of three STOs driven by the spin Hall effect, it is found that both in-phase and antiphase synchronization of the STOs can be achieved by adjusting the current density and appropriate distance between the oscillators.

A Multi-parameter regression model for interval censored survival data
We develop flexible multi-parameter regression survival models for interval censored survival data arising in longitudinal prospective studies and longitudinal randomised controlled clinical trials. A multi-parameter Weibull regression survival model, which is wholly parametric, and has non-proportional hazards, is the main focus of the paper. We describe the basic model, develop the interval-censored likelihood and extend the model to include gamma frailty and a dispersion model. We evaluate the models by means of a simulation study and a detailed re-analysis of data from the Signal Tandmobiel$^{\circledR}$ study. The results demonstrate that the multi-parameter regression model with frailty is computationally efficient and provides an excellent fit to the data.

Stochastic homogenization of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation
Following the ideas of V. V. Zhikov and A. L. Pyatnitski, and more precisely the stochastic two-scale convergence, this paper establishes a homogenization theorem in a stochastic setting for two nonlinear equations : the equation of harmonic maps into the sphere and the Landau-Lifschitz equation. These equations have strong nonlinear features, in particular, in general their solutions are not unique.

Cluster multipole dynamics in non-collinear antiferromagnets
A systematic framework to investigate spin dynamics in non-collinear antiferromagnet is proposed. Taking Mn$_3$Sn as a representative example, we derive an effective low energy model based on the multipole expansion of the magnetic structure, and investigate the uniform precession and the domain wall dynamics. We show that the solution for the effective model accurately reproduces the numerical calculation of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations. Our results indicate that Mn$_3$Sn has preferable properties for applications to a racetrack memory and a spin torque oscillator, and thus, is a promising candidate for new devices by using the multipole degrees of freedom.

Learning magnetization dynamics
Deep neural networks are used to model the magnetization dynamics in magnetic thin film elements. The magnetic states of a thin film element can be represented in a low dimensional space. With convolutional autoencoders a compression ratio of 1024:1 was achieved. Time integration can be performed in the latent space with a second network which was trained by solutions of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. Thus the magnetic response to an external field can be computed quickly.

Synchrony breakdown and noise-induced oscillation death in ensembles of serially connected spin-torque oscillators
We consider collective dynamics in the ensemble of serially connected spin-torque oscillators governed by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert-Slonczewski magnetization equation. Proximity to homoclinicity hampers synchronization of spin-torque oscillators: when the synchronous ensemble experiences the homoclinic bifurcation, the Floquet multiplier, responsible for the temporal evolution of small deviations from the ensemble mean, diverges. Depending on the configuration of the contour, sufficiently strong common noise, exemplified by stochastic oscillations of the current through the circuit, may suppress precession of the magnetic field for all oscillators. We derive the explicit expression for the threshold amplitude of noise, enabling this suppression.

Global classical solutions to an evolutionary model for magnetoelasticity
In this paper, we first prove the local-in-time existence of the evolutionary model for magnetoelasticity with finite initial energy by employing the nonlinear iterative approach given in \cite{Jiang-Luo-2019-SIAM} to deal with the geometric constraint $M \in \mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ in the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation. Inspired by \cite{Lin-Liu-Zhang-CPAM2005, Lin-Zhang-2008-CPAM}, we reformulate the evolutionary model for magnetoelasticity with vanishing external magnetic field $H_{ext}$, so that a further dissipative term will be sought from the elastic stress. We thereby justify the global well-posedness to the evolutionary model for magnetoelasticity with zero external magnetic field under small size of initial data.

Thermal Collapse of a Skyrmion
Thermal collapse of an isolated skyrmion on a two-dimensional spin lattice has been investigated. The method is based upon solution of the system of stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations for up $10^4$ spins. Recently developed pulse-noise algorithm has been used for the stochastic component of the equations. The collapse rate follows the Arrhenius law. Analytical formulas derived within a continuous spin-field model support numerically-obtained values of the energy barrier and the pre-exponential factor, and their dependence on the magnetic field. Our findings agree with experiments, as well as with recent numerical results obtained by other methods.

Random subgroups, automorphisms, splittings
We show that, if $H$ is a random subgroup of a finitely generated free group $F_k$, only inner automorphisms of $F_k$ may leave $H$ invariant. A similar result holds for random subgroups of toral relatively hyperbolic groups, more generally of groups which are hyperbolic relative to slender subgroups. These results follow from non-existence of splittings over slender groups which are relative to a random group element. Random subgroups are defined using random walks or balls in a Cayley tree of $F_k$.

Polarization of the Cosmic Infrared Background Fluctuations
The cosmic infrared background (CIB) is slightly polarized. Polarization directions of individual galaxies could be aligned with tidal fields around galaxies, resulting in nonzero CIB polarization. We use a linear intrinsic alignment model to theoretically predict angular correlations of the CIB polarization fluctuations and find that electriclike and curl-like ($B$-mode) polarization modes are equally generated with power four orders of magnitude less than its intensity. The CIB $B$-mode signal is negligible and not a concerning foreground for the inflationary $B$-mode searches at nominal frequencies for cosmic microwave background measurements, but could be detected at submillimetre wavelengths by future space missions.

Constructive asymptotic bounds of locally repairable codes via function fields
Locally repairable codes have been investigated extensively in recent years due to practical applications in distributed and cloud storage systems. However, there are few asymptotical constructions of locally repairable codes in the literature. In this paper, we provide an explicit asymptotic construction of locally repairable codes over arbitrary finite fields from local expansions of functions at a rational place. This construction gives a Tsfasman-Vladut-Zink type bound for locally repairable codes. Its main advantage is that there are no constraints on both locality and alphabet size. Furthermore, we show that the Gilbert-Varshamov type bound on locally repairable codes over non-prime finite fields can be exceeded for sufficiently large alphabet size.

Application-Layer Coding with Intermittent Feedback under Delay and Duty-Cycle Constraints
We propose two application-layer coding schemes for delay-constrained point-to-point packet communications with restrictions on the transmitter's maximum duty-cycle. The schemes operate over GF(2) and utilize intermittently available receiver feedback for erasure correction. Applications that will benefit from the proposed schemes include wireless sensor networks in which energy-constrained sensors must deliver readings to a gateway within a deadline. Simulation results for independent Bernoulli erasure channels, Gilbert-Elliott channels, and Long Range (LoRa) communications demonstrate orders-of-magnitude reductions in the delivery failure rate as compared to feedback-assisted repetition redundancy and a blind coding scheme that does not utilize feedback.

Dissipative solutions to a system for the flow of magnetoviscoelastic materials
We address the question of global in time existence of solutions to a magnetoviscoelastic system with general initial data. We show that the notion of dissipative solutions allows to prove such an existence in two and three dimensions. This extends an earlier result for the viscoelastic subsystem to the setting which includes the magnetization vector and its evolution in terms of a Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation.

Multi-reference protocol for (auto)ionization spectra: application to molecules
We present the application of the spherically averaged continuum model to the evaluation of molecular photoelectron and resonant Auger electron spectra. In this model, the continuum wave function is obtained in a numerically efficient way by solving the radial Schr\"odinger equation with a spherically averaged molecular potential. Different approximations to the Auger transition matrix element and, in particular, the one-center approximation are thoroughly tested against experimental data for the CH$_4$, O$_2$, NO$_2$, and pyrimidine molecules. In general, this approach appears to estimate the shape of the photoelectron and autoionization spectra as well as the total Auger decay rates with reasonable accuracy, allowing for the interpretation of experimental results.

Phase estimation of spin-torque oscillator by nonlinear spin-torque diode effect
A theoretical analysis is developed on spin-torque diode effect in nonlinear region. An analytical solution of the diode voltage generated from spin-torque oscillator by the rectification of an alternating current is derived. The diode voltage is revealed to depend nonlinearly on the phase difference between the oscillator and the alternating current. The validity of the analytical prediction is confirmed by numerical simulation of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. The results indicate that the spin-torque diode effect is useful to evaluate the phase of a spin-torque oscillator in forced synchronization state.

Frequency enhancement and power tunability in tilted polarizer spin-torque nano oscillator
In the absence of an applied magnetic field, a spin-torque nano oscillator(STNO) with a tilted polarizer is studied using numerical simulation of the associated Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert-Slonczewski equation. We find considerable enhancement of frequency by tilting the polarizer out-of-plane appropriately. Also, we observe improved tunability of frequency of oscillations from 15 GHz to 75 GHz and increment in the power spectral density by current and tilt angle. In addition, our findings and insights pave a simple way for nanoscale level microwave generators to be implemented.

Perspective on Metallic Antiferromagnets
Antiferromagnet materials have recently gained renewed interest due to their possible use in spintronics technologies, where spin transport is the foundation of their functionalities. In that respect metallic antiferromagnets are of particular interest, since they enable complex interplays between electronic charge transport, spin, optical, and magnetization dynamics. Here we review phenomena where the metallic conductivity provides unique perspectives for the practical use and fundamental properties of antiferromagnetic materials.

Enumerating alternating matrix spaces over finite fields with explicit coordinates
We initiate the study of enumerating linear subspaces of alternating matrices over finite fields with explicit coordinates. We postulate that this study can be viewed as a linear algebraic analogue of the classical topic of enumerating labelled graphs. To support this viewpoint, we present q-analogues of Gilbert's formula for enumerating connected graphs (Can. J. Math., 1956), and Read's formula for enumerating c-colored graphs (Can. J. Math., 1960). We also develop an analogue of Riddell's formula relating the exponential generating function of graphs with that of connected graphs (Riddell's PhD thesis, 1951), building on Eulerian generating functions developed by Srinivasan (Discrete Math., 2006).

On Passivity, Feedback Passivity, And Feedback Passivity Over Erasure Network: A Piecewise Affine Approximation Approach
In this paper, we deal with the problem of passivity and feedback passification of smooth discrete-time nonlinear systems by considering their piecewise affine approximations. Sufficient conditions are derived for passivity and feedback passivity. These results are then extended to systems that operate over Gilbert-Elliott type communication channels. As a special case, results for feedback passivity of piecewise affine systems over a lossy channel are also derived.

Hyperbolic groups of Fibonacci type and T(5) cyclically presented groups
Building on previous results concerning hyperbolicity of groups of Fibonacci type, we give an almost complete classification of the (non-elementary) hyperbolic groups within this class. We are unable to determine the hyperbolicity status of precisely two groups, namely the Gilbert-Howie groups H(9,4), H(9,7). We show that if H(9,4) is torsion-free then it is not hyperbolic. We consider the class of T(5) cyclically presented groups and classify the (non-elementary) hyperbolic groups and show that the Tits alternative holds.

Mechanistic Modelling of Chromatin Folding to Understand Function
Experimental approaches have been applied to address questions in understanding three-dimensional chromatin organisation and function. As datasets increase in size and complexity, it becomes a challenge to reach a mechanistic interpretation of experimental results. Polymer simulations and mechanistic modelling have been applied to explain experimental observations, and the links to different aspects of genome function. Here, we provide a guide for biologists, explaining different simulation approaches and the contexts in which they have been used.

Dual Regularized Optimal Transport
In this paper, we present a new formulation of unbalanced optimal transport called Dual Regularized Optimal Transport (DROT). We argue that regularizing the dual formulation of optimal transport results in a version of unbalanced optimal transport that leads to sparse solutions and that gives us control over mass creation and destruction. We build intuition behind such control and present theoretical properties of the solutions to DROT. We demonstrate that due to recent advances in optimization techniques, we can feasibly solve such a formulation at large scales and present extensive experimental evidence for this formulation and its solution.

Achieving positive rates with predetermined dictionaries
In the first part of the paper we consider binary input channels that are not necessarily stationary and show how positive rates can be achieved using codes constrained to be within predetermined dictionaries. We use a Gilbert-Varshamov-like argument to obtain the desired rate achieving codes. Next we study the corresponding problem for channels with arbitrary alphabets and use conflict-set decoding to show that if the dictionaries are contained within nice sets, then positive rates are achievable.

Colossal stability of antiferromagnetically exchange coupled nanomagnets
Bistable nanomagnets store a binary bit of information. Exchange coupled nanomagnets can increase the thermal stability at low dimensions. Here we show that the antiferromagnetically (AFM) coupled nanomagnets can be highly stable at low dimensions than that of the ferromagnetically (FM) coupled nanomagnets. By solving stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation of magnetization dynamics at room temperature, we analyze the stability of the exchange coupled nanomagnets in the presence of correlated, uncorrelated, and anti-correlated noise. The results show that the correlated noise can make the stability of the AFM coupled nanomagnets very high. Such finding will lead to very high-density non-volatile storage and logic devices in our future information processing systems.

Cutoff for the Asymmetric Riffle Shuffle
In the Gilbert-Shannon-Reeds shuffle, a deck of $N$ cards is cut into two approximately equal parts which are then riffled uniformly at random. Bayer and Diaconis famously showed that this Markov chain undergoes cutoff in total variation after $\frac{3\log(N)}{2 \log(2)}$ shuffles. We establish cutoff for the more general asymmetric riffle shuffles in which one cuts the deck into differently sized parts before riffling. The value of the cutoff point confirms a conjecture of Lalley from 2000. Some appealing consequences are that asymmetry always slows mixing and that total variation mixing is strictly faster than separation and $L^{\infty}$ mixing.

Information Freshness Analysis of Slotted ALOHA in Gilbert-Elliot Channels
This letter analyzes a class of information freshness metrics for large IoT systems in which terminals employ slotted ALOHA to access a common channel. Considering a Gilbert- Elliot channel model, information freshness is evaluated through a penalty function that follows a power law of the time elapsed since the last received update, in contrast with the linear growth of age of information. By means of a signal flow graph analysis of Markov processes, we provide exact closed form expressions for the average penalty and for the peak penalty violation probability.

Micromagnetic modeling of magnon coherent states in a nonuniform magnetic field
The study of the dynamics of magnetically ordered states in strong excitation through micromagnetic modeling has become relevant due to the observation of magnon Bose condensation. In particular, the question has arisen about the possibility of describing the coherent quantum state by the quasi-classical Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations. We performed micromagnetic simulations of magnetization precession with a high angle of deviation in an out-of-plane nonuniform dc field. Our results confirm the formation of coherent magnon state under conditions of high excitation. This coherent state extends over long distances and described by a spatially inhomogeneous amplitude and a homogeneous precession phase.

Superconducting Magnets
Superconductivity allows to construct and operate magnets at field values beyond 2 Tesla, the practical limitation of normal-conducting magnets exploiting ferro-magnetism. The field of superconducting magnets is dominated by the field generated in the coil. The stored energy and the electromagnetic forces generated by the coil are the main challenges to be overcome in the design of these magnets. For further reading you may consult the following books: [1], [2], [3], [4] or the proceedings of two specialized CAS courses: [5] and [6].

An Experimental-Design Perspective on Population Genetic Variation
We consider the hypothesis that Evolution promotes population-wide genome patterns that, under randomization, ensures the External Validity of adaptations across population members. An adaptation is Externally Valid (EV) if its effect holds under a wide range of population genetic variations. A prediction following the hypothesis is that pairwise base substitutions in segregating regions must be 'random' as in Erdos-Renyi-Gilbert random graphs, but with edge probabilities derived from Experimental-Design concepts. We demonstrate these probabilities, and consequent mutation rates, in the full-genomes of 2504 humans, 1135 flowering plants, 1170 flies, 453 domestic sheep and 1223 brown rats.

Multi-Adversarial Safety Analysis for Autonomous Vehicles
This work in progress considers reachability-based safety analysis in the domain of autonomous driving in multi-agent systems. We formulate the safety problem for a car following scenario as a differential game and study how different modelling strategies yield very different behaviors regardless of the validity of the strategies in other scenarios. Given the nature of real-life driving scenarios, we propose a modeling strategy in our formulation that accounts for subtle interactions between agents, and compare its Hamiltonian results to other baselines. Our formulation encourages reduction of conservativeness in Hamilton-Jacobi safety analysis to provide better safety guarantees during navigation.

Analyzing Ta-Shma's Code via the Expander Mixing Lemma
Random walks in expander graphs and their various derandomizations (e.g., replacement/zigzag product) are invaluable tools from pseudorandomness. Recently, Ta-Shma used s-wide replacement walks in his breakthrough construction of a binary linear code almost matching the Gilbert-Varshamov bound (STOC 2017). Ta-Shma's original analysis was entirely linear algebraic, and subsequent developments have inherited this viewpoint. In this work, we rederive Ta-Shma's analysis from a combinatorial point of view using repeated application of the expander mixing lemma. We hope that this alternate perspective will yield a better understanding of Ta-Shma's construction. As an additional application of our techniques, we give an alternate proof of the expander hitting set lemma.

Further Collapses in TFNP
We show $\textsf{EOPL}=\textsf{PLS}\cap\textsf{PPAD}$. Here the class $\textsf{EOPL}$ consists of all total search problems that reduce to the End-of-Potential-Line problem, which was introduced in the works by Hubacek and Yogev (SICOMP 2020) and Fearnley et al. (JCSS 2020). In particular, our result yields a new simpler proof of the breakthrough collapse $\textsf{CLS}=\textsf{PLS}\cap\textsf{PPAD}$ by Fearnley et al. (STOC 2021). We also prove a companion result $\textsf{SOPL}=\textsf{PLS}\cap\textsf{PPADS}$, where $\textsf{SOPL}$ is the class associated with the Sink-of-Potential-Line problem.

A proposed test of quantum mechanics with three connected atomic clock transitions
We consider possible extensions to quantum mechanics proposed by Steven Weinberg, and re-analyze his prediction of a new test based upon three atomic clocks in the same atom. We propose realistic experimental systems where this hypothesis can be tested. Two systems already set limits on deviations from quantum mechanics, while with another system, one would be able to search for new physics at the limit of sensitivity of the best atomic clocks.

Generalized graph splines and the Universal Difference Property
We study the generalized graph splines introduced by Gilbert, Tymoczko, and Viel and focus on an attribute known as the Universal Difference Property (UDP). We prove that paths, trees, and cycles satisfy UDP. We explore UDP on graphs pasted at a single vertex and use Pr\"ufer domains to illustrate that not every edge labeled graph satisfies UDP. We show that UDP must hold for any edge labeled graph over a ring $R$ if and only if $R$ is a Pr\"ufer domain. Lastly, we prove that UDP is preserved by isomorphisms of edge labeled graphs.

Total stability and Auslander-Reiten theory for Dynkin quivers
This paper concerns stability functions for Dynkin quivers, in the generality introduced by Rudakov. We show that relatively few inequalities need to be satisfied for a stability function to be totally stable (i.e. to make every indecomposable stable). Namely, a stability function $\mu$ is totally stable if and only if $\mu(\tau V) < \mu(V)$ for every almost split sequences $0 \to \tau V \to E \to V \to 0$ where $E$ is indecomposable. These can be visualized as those sequences around the "border" of the Auslander-Reiten quiver.

Magnetization dynamics and reversal of two-dimensional magnets
Micromagnetics simulation based on the classical Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation has long been a powerful method for modeling magnetization dynamics and reversal of three-dimensional (3D) magnets. For two-dimensional (2D) magnets, the magnetization reversal always accompanies the collapse of the magnetization even at low temperatures due to intrinsic strong spin fluctuation. We propose a micromagnetic theory that explicitly takes into account the rapid demagnetization and remagnetization dynamics of 2D magnets during magnetization reversal. We apply the theory to a single-domain magnet to illustrate fundamental differences in magnetization trajectories and reversal times for 2D and 3D magnets.

Two-Qutrit entanglement: 56-years old algorithm challenges machine learning
Classifying states as entangled or separable is a highly challenging task, while it is also one of the foundations of quantum information processing theory. This task is higly nontrivial even for relatively simple cases, such as two-qutrit Bell-diagonal states, i.e., mixture of nine mutually orthogonal maximally entangled states. In this article we apply the Gilbert algorithm to revise previously obtained results for this class. In particular we use ``cartography of entanglement'' to argue that most states left in [Hiesmayr, B. C. {\em Scientific Reports} {\bf 11}, 19739 (2021)] as unknown to be entangled or separable are most likely indeed separable, or very weakly entangled. The presented technique can find endless applications in more general cases.

Quantitative CLTs on the Poisson space via Skorohod estimates and $p$-Poincaré inequalities
We establish new explicit bounds on the Gaussian approximation of Poisson functionals based on novel estimates of moments of Skorohod integrals. Combining these with the Malliavin-Stein method, we derive bounds in the Wasserstein and Kolmogorov distances whose application requires minimal moment assumptions on add-one cost operators $\unicode{x2014}$ thereby extending the results from (Last, Peccati and Schulte, 2016). Our applications include a CLT for the Online Nearest Neighbour graph, whose validity was conjectured in (Wade, 2009; Penrose and Wade, 2009). We also apply our techniques to derive quantitative CLTs for edge functionals of the Gilbert graph, of the $k$-Nearest Neighbour graph and of the Radial Spanning Tree, both in cases where qualitative CLTs are known and unknown.

Bounds on Mixed Codes with Finite Alphabets
Mixed codes, which are error-correcting codes in the Cartesian product of different-sized spaces, model degrading storage systems well. While such codes have previously been studied for their algebraic properties (e.g., existence of perfect codes) or in the case of unbounded alphabet sizes, we focus on the case of finite alphabets, and generalize the Gilbert-Varshamov, sphere-packing, Elias-Bassalygo, and first linear programming bounds to that setting. In the latter case, our proof is also the first for the non-symmetric mono-alphabetic $q$-ary case using Navon and Samorodnitsky's Fourier-analytic approach.

Codes Correcting Burst and Arbitrary Erasures for Reliable and Low-Latency Communication
Motivated by modern network communication applications which require low latency, we study codes that correct erasures with low decoding delay. We provide a simple explicit construction that yields convolutional codes that can correct both burst and arbitrary erasures under a maximum decoding delay constraint $T$. Our proposed code has efficient encoding/decoding algorithms and requires a field size that is linear in $T$. We study the performance of our code over the Gilbert-Elliot channel; our simulation results show significant performance gains over low-delay codes existing in the literature.

We show that fundamental groups of two-complexes with non-positive immersions are homologically coherent, we show that groups with staggered presentations and many Coxeter groups are coherent and we show that group algebras over fields of characteristic zero of groups with reducible presentations without proper powers are coherent.

Algebraic Geometry codes in the sum-rank metric
We introduce the first geometric construction of codes in the sum-rank metric, which we called linearized Algebraic Geometry codes, using quotients of the ring of Ore polynomials with coefficients in the function field of an algebraic curve. We study the parameters of these codes and give lower bounds for their dimension and minimum distance. Our codes exhibit quite good parameters, respecting a similar bound to Goppa's bound for Algebraic Geometry codes in the Hamming metric. Furthermore, our construction yields codes asymptotically better than the sum-rank version of the Gilbert-Varshamov bound.

Linear Codes with Prescribed Hull Dimension and Minimum Distance
The hull of a linear code (i.e., a finite field vector space)~\({\mathcal C}\) is defined to be the vector space formed by the intersection of~\({\mathcal C}\) with its dual~\({\mathcal C}^{\perp}.\) Constructing vector spaces with a specified hull dimension has important applications and it is therefore of interest to study minimum distance properties of such spaces. In this paper, we use the probabilistic method to obtain spaces with a given hull dimension and minimum distance and also derive Gilbert-Varshamov type sufficient conditions for their existence.

Bounds on Size of Homopolymer Free Codes
For any given alphabet of size $q$, a Homopolymer Free code (HF code) refers to an $(n, M, d)_q$ code of length $n$, size $M$ and minimum Hamming distance $d$, where all the codewords are homopolymer free sequences. For any given alphabet, this work provides upper and lower bounds on the maximum size of any HF code using Sphere Packing bound and Gilbert-Varshamov bound. Further, upper and lower bounds on the maximum size of HF codes for various HF code families are calculated. Also, as a specific case, upper and lower bounds are obtained on the maximum size of homopolymer free DNA codes.

Codes from Goppa codes
On a Goppa code whose structure polynomial has coefficients in the symbol field, the Frobenius acts. Its fixed codewords form a subcode. Deleting the naturally occurred redundance, we obtain a new code. It is proved that these new codes approach the Gilbert-Varshamov bound. It is also proved that these codes can be decoded within $O(n^2(\logn)^a)$ operations in the symbol field, which is usually much small than the location field, where $n$ is the codeword length, and $a$ a constant determined by the polynomial factorization algorithm.

A Macroscopic Theory of Saturated Ferromagnetic Conductors
A phenomenological theory of rigid and saturated ferromagnetic conductors is constructed from a four-continuum model consisting of a rigid lattice continuum, a bound charge continuum for polarization, a circulating current continuum for magnetization, and a free charge continuum for electrical conduction. The basic laws of physics are applied to the four continua. Thermal couplings and the related dissipative effects are also included. The theory includes the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation as one of a system of simultaneous equations.

Unveiling Stable One-dimensional Magnetic Solitons in Magnetic Bilayers
We propose a novel model which efficiently describes the magnetization dynamics in a magnetic bilayer system. By applying a particular gauge transformation to the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation, we successfully convert the model into an exactly integrable framework. Thus the obtained analytical solutions allows us to predict a 1D magnetic soliton pair existed by tunning the thickness of the spacing layer between the two ferrimagnetic layers. The decoupling-unlocking-locking transition of soliton motion is determined at various interaction intensitiy. Our results have implications for the manipulation of magnetic solitons and the design of magnetic soliton-based logic devices.

Thermomechanics of ferri-antiferromagnetic phase transition in finitely-strained rocks towards paleomagnetism
The thermodynamic model of visco-elastic deformable magnetic materials at finite strains is formulated in a fully Eulerian way in rates with the aim to describe thermoremanent paleomagnetism in crustal rocks. The Landau theory applied to a ferro-to-para-magnetic phase transition, the gradient theory for magnetization (leading to exchange energy) with general mechanically dependent coefficient, hysteresis in magnetization evolution by Gilbert equation involving objective corotational time derivative of magnetization, and demagnetizing field are considered in the model. The Jeffreys viscoelastic rheology is used with temperature-dependent creep to model solidification or melting transition. The model complies with energy conservation and the Clausius-Duhem entropy inequality.

Characterizing Smooth Safety Filters via the Implicit Function Theorem
Optimization-based safety filters, such as control barrier function (CBF) based quadratic programs (QPs), have demonstrated success in controlling autonomous systems to achieve complex goals. These CBF-QPs can be shown to be continuous, but are generally not smooth, let alone continuously differentiable. In this paper, we present a general characterization of smooth safety filters -- smooth controllers that guarantee safety in a minimally invasive fashion -- based on the Implicit Function Theorem. This characterization leads to families of smooth universal formulas for safety-critical controllers that quantify the conservatism of the resulting safety filter, the utility of which is demonstrated through illustrative examples.

The success of algorithms in the analysis of high-dimensional data is often attributed to the manifold hypothesis, which supposes that this data lie on or near a manifold of much lower dimension. It is often useful to determine or estimate the dimension of this manifold before performing dimension reduction, for instance. Existing methods for dimension estimation are calibrated using a flat unit ball. In this paper, we develop CA-PCA, a version of local PCA based instead on a calibration of a quadratic embedding, acknowledging the curvature of the underlying manifold. Numerous careful experiments show that this adaptation improves the estimator in a wide range of settings.

Dedukti: a Logical Framework based on the $λ$$Π$-Calculus Modulo Theory
Dedukti is a Logical Framework based on the $\lambda$$\Pi$-Calculus Modulo Theory. We show that many theories can be expressed in Dedukti: constructive and classical predicate logic, Simple type theory, programming languages, Pure type systems, the Calculus of inductive constructions with universes, etc. and that permits to used it to check large libraries of proofs developed in other proof systems: Zenon, iProver, FoCaLiZe, HOL Light, and Matita.
