Phase transitions for a model with uncountable spin space on the Cayley tree: the general case
In this paper we complete the analysis of a statistical mechanics model on Cayley trees of any degree, started in [EsHaRo12,EsRo10,BoEsRo13,JaKuBo14,Bo17]. The potential is of nearest-neighbor type and the local state space is compact but uncountable. Based on the system parameters we prove existence of a critical value $\theta_{\rm c}$ such that for $\theta\le \theta_{\rm c}$ there is a unique translation-invariant splitting Gibbs measure. For $\theta_{\rm c}<\theta$ there is a phase transition with exactly three translation-invariant splitting Gibbs measures. The proof rests on an analysis of fixed points of an associated non-linear Hammerstein integral operator for the boundary laws.

Looking for Galactic Diffuse Dark Matter in INO-MagICAL Detector
The Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) is a popular particle physics candidate for the dark matter (DM). It can annihilate and/or decay to neutrino and antineutrino pair. The proposed 50 kt Magnetized Iron CALorimeter (MagICAL) detector at the India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO) can observe these pairs over the conventional atmospheric neutrino and antineutrino fluxes. If we do not see any excess of events in ten years, then INO-Magical can place competitive limits on self-annihilation cross-section ($\langle\sigma v\rangle$) and decay lifetime ($\tau$) of dark matter at 90\% C.L.: $\langle\sigma v\rangle\leq 1.87\,\times\,10^{-24}$ cm$^3$ s$^{-1}$ and $\tau\geq 4.8\,\times\,10^{24}$ s for $m_\chi$ = 10 GeV assuming the NFW as DM density profile.

Computing Bottleneck Distance for Multi-parameter Interval Decomposable Persistence Modules
Computation of the interleaving distance between persistence modules is a central task in topological data analysis. For $1$-parameter persistence modules, thanks to the isometry theorem, this can be done by computing the bottleneck distance with known efficient algorithms. The question is open for most $n$-parameter persistence modules, $n>1$, because of the well recognized complications of the indecomposables. Here, we consider a reasonably complicated class called {\em $n$-parameter interval decomposable} modules whose indecomposables may have a description of non-constant complexity. We present a polynomial time algorithm to compute the bottleneck distance for these modules from indecomposables, which bounds the interleaving distance from above, and give another algorithm to compute a new distance called {\em dimension distance} that bounds it from below. An earlier version of this paper considered only the $2$-parameter interval decomposable modules~\cite{DeyCheng18}.

Speech Enhancement Based on Non-stationary Noise-driven Geometric Spectral Subtraction and Phase Spectrum Compensation
In this paper, a speech enhancement method based on noise compensation performed on short time magnitude as well phase spectra is presented. Unlike the conventional geometric approach (GA) to spectral subtraction (SS), here the noise estimate to be subtracted from the noisy speech spectrum is proposed to be determined by exploiting the low frequency regions of current frame of noisy speech rather than depending only on the initial silence frames. This approach gives the capability of tracking non-stationary noise thus resulting in a non-stationary noise-driven geometric approach of spectral subtraction for speech enhancement. The noise compensated magnitude spectrum from the GA step is then recombined with unchanged phase of noisy speech spectrum and used in phase compensation to obtain an enhanced complex spectrum, which is used to produce an enhanced speech frame. Extensive simulations are carried out using speech files available in the NOIZEUS database shows that the proposed method consistently outperforms some of the recent methods of speech enhancement when employed on the noisy speeches corrupted by street or babble noise at different levels of SNR in terms of objective measures, spectrogram analysis and formal subjective listening tests.

Higgs Vacuum Decay from Particle Collisions?
We examine the effect of large extra dimensions on black hole seeded vacuum decay using the Randall-Sundrum model as a prototype for warped extra dimensions. We model the braneworld black hole by a tidal solution, and solve the Higgs equations of motion for the instanton on the brane. Remarkably, the action of the static instanton can be shown to be the difference in the bulk areas of the seed and remnant black holes, and we estimate these areas assuming the black holes are small compared to the bulk AdS radius. Comparing to the Hawking evaporation rate shows that small black hole seeds preferentially catalyse vacuum decay, thus extending our previous results to higher dimensional braneworld scenarios. The parameter ranges do not allow for Standard Model Higgs decay from collider black holes, but they can be relevant for cosmic ray collisions.

The nested structural organization of the worldwide trade multi-layer network
Nestedness has traditionally been used to detect assembly patterns in meta-communities and networks of interacting species. Attempts have also been made to uncover nested structures in international trade, typically represented as bipartite networks in which connections can be established between countries (exporters or importers) and industries. A bipartite representation of trade, however, inevitably neglects transactions between industries. To fully capture the organization of the global value chain, we draw on the World Input-Output Database and construct a multi-layer network in which the nodes are the countries, the layers are the industries, and links can be established from sellers to buyers within and across industries. We define the buyers' and sellers' participation matrices in which the rows are the countries and the columns are all possible pairs of industries, and then compute nestedness based on buyers' and sellers' involvement in transactions between and within industries. Drawing on appropriate null models that preserve the countries' or layers' degree distributions in the original multi-layer network, we uncover variations of country- and transaction-based nestedness over time, and identify the countries and industries that most contributed to nestedness. We discuss the implications of our findings for the study of the international production network and other real-world systems.

Ultrafast lattice deformations studied by means of time-resolved electron and x-ray diffraction
Ultrafast lattice deformation of tens to hundreds of nanometer thick metallic crystals, after femtosecond laser excitation, was measured directly using 8.04 keV subpicosecond x-ray and 59 keV femtosecond electron pulses. Coherent phonons were generated in both single crystal and polycrystalline films. Lattice compression was observed within the first few picoseconds after laser irradiation in single crystal aluminum, which was attributed to the generation of a blast force and the propagation of elastic waves. The different time scale of lattice heating for tens and hundreds nanometer thick films are clearly distinguished by electron and x-ray pulse diffraction. The electron and lattice heating due to ultrafast deposition of photon energy was numerically simulated using the two-temperature model (TTM) and the results agreed with experimental observations. The ultrafast heating described by TTM was also discussed from an electrical circuit perspective, which may provide new insights on the possible connection between thermal and electrical processes. This study demonstrates that the combination of two complimentary ultrafast time-resolved methods, ultrafast x-ray and electron diffraction will provide a panoramic picture of the transient atomic motions and structure in crystals.

Entanglement in a dephasing model and many-body localization
We study entanglement dynamics in a diagonal dephasing model in which the strength of interaction decays exponentially with distance -- the so-called l-bit model of many-body localization. We calculate the exact expression for entanglement growth with time, finding in addition to a logarithmic growth, a sublogarithmic correction. Provided the l-bit picture correctly describes the many-body localized phase this implies that the entanglement in such systems does not grow (just) as a logarithm of time, as believed so far.

Machine Learning Inverse Problem for Topological Photonics
Topological concepts open many new horizons for photonic devices, from integrated optics to lasers. The complexity of large scale topological devices asks for an effective solution of the inverse problem: how best to engineer the topology for a specific application? We introduce a novel machine learning approach to the topological inverse problem. We train a neural network system with the band structure of the Aubry-Andre-Harper model and then adopt the network for solving the inverse problem. Our application is able to identify the parameters of a complex topological insulator in order to obtain protected edge states at target frequencies. One challenging aspect is handling the multivalued branches of the direct problem and discarding unphysical solutions. We overcome this problem by adopting a self-consistent method to only select physically relevant solutions. We demonstrate our technique in a realistic topological laser design and by resorting to the widely available open-source TensorFlow library. Our results are general and scalable to thousands of topological components. This new inverse design technique based on machine learning potentially extends the applications of topological photonics, for example, to frequency combs, quantum sources, neuromorphic computing and metrology.

Optimizing cluster-based randomized experiments under a monotonicity assumption
Cluster-based randomized experiments are popular designs for mitigating the bias of standard estimators when interference is present and classical causal inference and experimental design assumptions (such as SUTVA or ITR) do not hold. Without an exact knowledge of the interference structure, it can be challenging to understand which partitioning of the experimental units is optimal to minimize the estimation bias. In the paper, we introduce a monotonicity condition under which a novel two-stage experimental design allows us to determine which of two cluster-based designs yields the least biased estimator. We then consider the setting of online advertising auctions and show that reserve price experiments verify the monotonicity condition and the proposed framework and methodology applies. We validate our findings on an advertising auction dataset.

Distributed Base Station: A Concept System for Long-Range Broadband Wireless Access
We propose a concept system termed distributed base station (DBS), which enables distributed transmit beamforming at large carrier wavelengths to achieve significant range extension and/or increased downlink data rate, providing a low-cost infrastructure for applications such as rural broadband. We consider a frequency division duplexed (FDD) system, using feedback from the receiver to achieve the required phase coherence. At a given range, $N$ cooperating transmitters can achieve $N^2$-fold increase in received power compared to that for a single transmitters, and feedback-based algorithms with near-ideal performance have been prototyped. In this paper, however, we identify and address key technical issues in translating such power gains into range extension via a DBS. First, to combat the drop in per-node SNR with extended range, we design a feedback-based adaptation strategy that is suitably robust to noise. Second, to utilize available system bandwidth, we extend narrowband adaptation algorithms to wideband channels through interpolation over OFDM subcarriers. Third, we observe that the feedback channel may become a bottleneck unless sophisticated distributed reception strategies are employed, but show that acceptable performance can still be obtained with standard uplink reception if channel time variations are slow enough. We quantify system performance compactly via outage capacity analyses.

A Faraday Rotation Study of the Stellar Bubble and HII Region Associated with the W4 Complex
We utilized the Very Large Array to make multifrequency polarization measurements of 20 radio sources viewed through the IC 1805 HII region and "Superbubble", as well as in the immediate vicinity. The measurements at frequencies between 4.33 and 7.76 GHz yield Faraday rotation measures along 27 lines of sight to these sources (some sources have more than one component). The Faraday rotation measures (RM) are used to probe the plasma structure of the IC 1805 HII region and to test the degree to which the Galactic magnetic field is heavily modified (amplified) by the dynamics of the HII region. We find that similar to the Rosette Nebula (Savage et al. 2013, Costa et al. 2016) and the Cygnus OB1 association (Whiting et al. 2009), IC 1805 constitutes a "Faraday rotation anomaly", or a region of increased RM relative to the general Galactic background value. Although the RM observed on lines of sight through the region vary substantially, the |RM| due to the nebula is commonly 600 -- 800 rad m^-2. In spite of this, the observed RMs are not as large as simple, analytic models of magnetic field amplification in HII regions might indicate. This suggests that the Galactic field is not increased by a substantial factor within the ionized gas in an HII region. We also find that with one exception, the sign of the RM for all sources is that expected for the polarity of the Galactic field in this direction. The same behavior was found for the Rosette Nebula, and qualitatively indicates that turbulent fluctuations in the Galactic field on spatial scales of $\sim 10$ pc are smaller than the mean Galactic field. Finally, our results show intriguing indications that some of the largest values of |RM| occur for lines of sight that pass outside the fully ionized shell of the IC 1805 HII region, but pass through the Photodissociation Region (PDR) associated with IC 1805.

Deep Models of Interactions Across Sets
We use deep learning to model interactions across two or more sets of objects, such as user-movie ratings, protein-drug bindings, or ternary user-item-tag interactions. The canonical representation of such interactions is a matrix (or a higher-dimensional tensor) with an exchangeability property: the encoding's meaning is not changed by permuting rows or columns. We argue that models should hence be Permutation Equivariant (PE): constrained to make the same predictions across such permutations. We present a parameter-sharing scheme and prove that it could not be made any more expressive without violating PE. This scheme yields three benefits. First, we demonstrate state-of-the-art performance on multiple matrix completion benchmarks. Second, our models require a number of parameters independent of the numbers of objects, and thus scale well to large datasets. Third, models can be queried about new objects that were not available at training time, but for which interactions have since been observed. In experiments, our models achieved surprisingly good generalization performance on this matrix extrapolation task, both within domains (e.g., new users and new movies drawn from the same distribution used for training) and even across domains (e.g., predicting music ratings after training on movies).

Observational implications of lowering the LIGO-Virgo alert threshold
The recent detection of the binary-neutron-star merger associated with GW170817 by both LIGO-Virgo and the network of electromagnetic-spectrum observing facilities around the world has made the multi-messenger detection of gravitational-wave events a reality. These joint detections allow us to probe gravitational-wave sources in greater detail and provide us with the possibility of confidently establishing events that would not have been detected in gravitational-wave data alone. In this paper, we explore the prospects of using the electromagnetic follow-up of low-significance gravitational-wave event candidates to increase the sample of confident detections with electromagnetic counterparts. We find that the gravitational-wave alert threshold change that would roughly double the number of detectable astrophysical events would increase the false-alarm rate by more than 5 orders of magnitude from 1 per 100 years to more than 1000 per year. We find that the localization costs of following-up low-significance candidates are marginal, as the same changes to false-alarm rate only increase distance/area localizations by less than a factor of 2 and increase volume localization by less than a factor of 4. We argue that EM follow-up thresholds for low-significance candidates should be set on the basis of alert purity ($P_\text{astro}$) and not false-alarm rate. Ideally, such estimates of $P_\text{astro}$ would be provided by LIGO-Virgo, but in their absence we provide estimates of the average purity of the gravitational-wave candidate alerts issued by LIGO-Virgo as a function of false-alarm rate for various LIGO-Virgo observing epochs.

Algorithms and diagnostics for the analysis of preference rankings with the Extended Plackett-Luce model
Choice behavior and preferences typically involve numerous and subjective aspects that are difficult to be identified and quantified. For this reason, their exploration is frequently conducted through the collection of ordinal evidence in the form of ranking data. A ranking is an ordered sequence resulting from the comparative evaluation of a given set of items according to a specific criterion. Multistage ranking models, including the popular Plackett-Luce distribution (PL), rely on the assumption that the ranking process is performed sequentially, by assigning the positions from the top to the bottom one (forward order). A recent contribution to the ranking literature relaxed this assumption with the addition of the discrete reference order parameter, yielding the novel Extended Plackett-Luce model (EPL). Inference on the EPL and its generalization into a finite mixture framework was originally addressed from the frequentist perspective. In this work, we propose the Bayesian estimation of the EPL with order constraints on the reference order parameter. The restrictions for the discrete parameter reflect a meaningful rank assignment process and, in combination with the data augmentation strategy and the conjugacy of the Gamma prior distribution with the EPL, facilitate the construction of a tuned joint Metropolis-Hastings algorithm within Gibbs sampling to simulate from the posterior distribution. We additionally propose a novel model diagnostic to assess the adequacy of the EPL parametric specification. The usefulness of the proposal is illustrated with applications to simulated and real datasets.

Compact sub-kilohertz low-frequency quantum light source based on four-wave mixing in cesium vapor
Using a nondegenerate four-wave mixing (FWM) process based on a double-{\Lambda} scheme in hot cesium vapor, we demonstrate a compact diode-laser-pumped quantum light source for the generation of quantum correlated twin beams with a maximum squeezing of 6.5 dB. The squeezing is observed at a Fourier frequency in the audio band down to 0.7 kHz which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first observation of sub-kilohertz intensity-difference squeezing in an atomic system so far. A phase-matching condition is also investigated in our system, which confirms the spatial-multi-mode characteristics of the FWM process. Our compact low-frequency squeezed light source may find applications in quantum imaging, quantum metrology, and the transfer of optical squeezing onto a matter wave.

On the round-trip efficiency of an HVAC-based virtual battery
Flexible loads, especially heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems can be used to provide a battery-like service to the power grid by varying their demand up and down over a baseline. Recent work has reported that providing virtual energy storage with HVAC systems lead to a net loss of energy, akin to a low round-trip efficiency (RTE) of a battery. In this work we rigorously analyze the RTE of a virtual battery through a simplified physics-based model. We show that the low RTEs reported in recent experimental and simulation work are an artifact of the experimental/simulation setup. When the HVAC system is repeatedly used as a virtual battery, the asymptotic RTE is 1. Robustness of the result to assumptions made in the analysis is illustrated through a simulation case study.

Synthesis in pMDPs: A Tale of 1001 Parameters
This paper considers parametric Markov decision processes (pMDPs) whose transitions are equipped with affine functions over a finite set of parameters. The synthesis problem is to find a parameter valuation such that the instantiated pMDP satisfies a specification under all strategies. We show that this problem can be formulated as a quadratically-constrained quadratic program (QCQP) and is non-convex in general. To deal with the NP-hardness of such problems, we exploit a convex-concave procedure (CCP) to iteratively obtain local optima. An appropriate interplay between CCP solvers and probabilistic model checkers creates a procedure --- realized in the open-source tool PROPhESY --- that solves the synthesis problem for models with thousands of parameters.

Stability of constant mean curvature surfaces in three dimensional warped product manifolds
In this paper we prove that stable, compact without boundary, oriented, nonzero constant mean curvature surfaces in the de Sitter-Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstrom manifolds are the slices, provided its mean curvature satisfies some positive lower bound. More generally, we prove that stable, compact without boundary, oriented nonzero constant mean curvature surfaces in a large class of three dimensional warped product manifolds are embedded topological spheres, provided the mean curvature satisfies a positive lower bound depending only on the ambient curvatures. We conclude the paper proving that a stable, compact without boundary, nonzero constant mean curvature surface in a general Riemannian is a topological sphere provided its mean curvature has a lower bound depending only on the scalar curvature of the ambient space and the squared norm of the mean curvature vector field of the immersion of the ambient space in some Euclidean space.

Quantum-assisted cluster analysis
We present an algorithm for quantum-assisted cluster analysis (QACA) that makes use of the topological properties of a D-Wave 2000Q quantum processing unit (QPU). Clustering is a form of unsupervised machine learning, where instances are organized into groups whose members share similarities. The assignments are, in contrast to classification, not known a priori, but generated by the algorithm. We explain how the problem can be expressed as a quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) problem, and show that the introduced quantum-assisted clustering algorithm is, regarding accuracy, equivalent to commonly used classical clustering algorithms. Quantum annealing algorithms belong to the class of metaheuristic tools, applicable for solving binary optimization problems. Hardware implementations of quantum annealing, such as the quantum annealing machines produced by D-Wave Systems, have been subject to multiple analyses in research, with the aim of characterizing the technology's usefulness for optimization, sampling, and clustering. Our first and foremost aim is to explain how to represent and solve parts of these problems with the help of the QPU, and not to prove supremacy over every existing classical clustering algorithm.

A first look at browser-based Cryptojacking
In this paper, we examine the recent trend towards in-browser mining of cryptocurrencies; in particular, the mining of Monero through Coinhive and similar code- bases. In this model, a user visiting a website will download a JavaScript code that executes client-side in her browser, mines a cryptocurrency, typically without her consent or knowledge, and pays out the seigniorage to the website. Websites may consciously employ this as an alternative or to supplement advertisement revenue, may offer premium content in exchange for mining, or may be unwittingly serving the code as a result of a breach (in which case the seigniorage is collected by the attacker). The cryptocurrency Monero is preferred seemingly for its unfriendliness to large-scale ASIC mining that would drive browser-based efforts out of the market, as well as for its purported privacy features. In this paper, we survey this landscape, conduct some measurements to establish its prevalence and profitability, outline an ethical framework for considering whether it should be classified as an attack or business opportunity, and make suggestions for the detection, mitigation and/or prevention of browser-based mining for non- consenting users.

Graph extensions, edit number and regular graphs
A graph G on n vertices is said to be extendable if G can be modified to form a new graph H on more than n vertices, while preserving the degrees of the vertices common to G and H. The added vertices all have the same degree and we define edit numbers to quantify the amount of modification needed to obtain the extended graph. Characterizing graphs with least possible edit numbers, we obtain that graphs with zero edit number can be extended using regular graphs. We also describe an iterative algorithm to construct connected regular graphs on arbitrarily large vertex sets, starting from the complete graph on a fixed set of vertices.

Towards an MDD Based Framework for Self Adaptive IoT Applications Development
As technology and communication advances, more devices (and things) are able to connect to the Internet and talk to each other to achieve a common goal which results in the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) era. It is believed that IoT will bring up a limitless number of applications and business opportunities that will affect almost every aspect of our life. Research has already been conducted to investigate the challenges that obstruct the realization of IoT along with the promising solutions that pave the way for the acceptance and enabling of IoT. Among the research areas that is of a great importance to making IoT paradigm possible is the presence of a unified programming framework that masks the heterogeneity of the involved devices of the IoT platform. Such a framework guides system developers throughout the IoT application development process. In this paper, we investigate the IoT concept and its high level architecture in general and focus more on the application development aspect. We believe that IoT applications are highly dynamic in nature and thus need to be engineered with the self adaptive and autonomic concepts in mind. Therefore, our proposed IoT software development lifecycle was based on the IBM architecture blueprint for autonomic systems. To cater for the runtime dynamic and heterogeneity aspects of IoT applications, we adopt the MDD paradigm for our proposed development framework. We highlight the core requirements of a resilient development framework that accommodates the necessary concepts and processes for a successful IoT application.

Improving Privacy and Trust in Federated Identity Using SAML with Hash Based Encryption Algorithm
Cloud computing is an upcoming technology that has been designed for commercial needs. One of the major issues in cloud computing is the difficulty to manage federated identities and the trust between the user and the service providers. This paper focuses on how security can be provided between the user and the service provider and how the user information can be authenticated. For the purpose of providing privacy and authentication, Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) based Single Sign-On is used. Security is provided by using Hash based Encryption algorithm (HBE). HBE algorithm works with the help of Key Exchange Protocol which contains poly hash function. In the algorithm, Identity providers maintain user directory and authenticates user information; service provider provides the service to users. The user has to register their details with the identity provider prior to this. During this stage, Hash based Encryption algorithm is used to provide secure communication between the identity provider and the user. In this paper we suggest that higher security can be given to user login by using an additional cryptographic technique, i.e. Hash based Encryption algorithm with the help of the Key Exchange Protocol.

Link cobordism and the intersection of slice discs
It is well-known that all 2-knots are slice. Are all 2-links slice? This is an outstanding open question. In this paper we prove the following: For any 2-component 2-link (J,K)in the 4-sphere which bounds the 5-ball B^5, there is an embedded disc 2-disc D^2_J (respectively, D^2_K) in B^5 with the following properties: J (respectively K) bounds D^2_J (respectively, D^2_K). D^2_J and D^2_K intersect transversely. the intersection of D^2_J and D^2_K in D^2_J (respectively, D^2_K) is a trivial 1-knot.

An efficient framework for learning sentence representations
In this work we propose a simple and efficient framework for learning sentence representations from unlabelled data. Drawing inspiration from the distributional hypothesis and recent work on learning sentence representations, we reformulate the problem of predicting the context in which a sentence appears as a classification problem. Given a sentence and its context, a classifier distinguishes context sentences from other contrastive sentences based on their vector representations. This allows us to efficiently learn different types of encoding functions, and we show that the model learns high-quality sentence representations. We demonstrate that our sentence representations outperform state-of-the-art unsupervised and supervised representation learning methods on several downstream NLP tasks that involve understanding sentence semantics while achieving an order of magnitude speedup in training time.

MCP detector development for UV space missions
We are developing imaging and photon counting UV-MCP detectors, which are sensitive in the wavelength range from far ultraviolet to near ultraviolet. A good quantum efficiency, solar blindness and high spatial resolution is the aim of our development. The sealed detector has a Cs-activated photoactive layer of GaN (or similarly advanced photocathode), which is operated in semitransparent mode on (001)-MgF 2 . The detector comprises a stack of two long-life MCPs and a coplanar cross strip anode with advanced readout electronics. The main challenge is the flawless growth of the GaN photocathode layer as well as the requirements for the sealing of the detector, to prevent a degradation of the photocathode. We present here the detector concept and the experimental setup, examine in detail the status in the production and describe the current status of the readout electronics development.

A Robustness Measure of Transient Stability under Operational Constraints in Power Systems
The aggressive integration of distributed renewable sources is changing the dynamics of the electric power grid in an unexpected manner. As a result, maintaining conventional performance specifications, such as transient stability, may not be sufficient to ensure its reliable operation in stressed conditions. In this paper, we introduce a novel criteria in transient stability with consideration of operational constraints over frequency deviation and angular separation. In addition, we provide a robustness measure of the region of attraction, which can quantify the ability of the post-fault system to remain synchronized even under disturbances. To assess this new stability specification, we adopt the notion of Input-to-State Stability (ISS) to the context of power systems and introduce a new class of convex Lyapunov functions, which will result in tractable convex-optimization-based stability certificates. As a result, we are able to quantify the level of disturbance a power system can withstand while maintaining its safe operation. We illustrate the introduced stability specification and certificate on the IEEE 9 bus system.

Extraction of isoscalar $\pi\pi$ phase-shifts from lattice QCD
We conduct a two-flavor ($N_f=2$) lattice QCD calculation of the elastic phase-shifts for pion-pion scattering in the scalar, isoscalar channel (the $\sigma$-meson). The calculation is performed for two quark masses corresponding to a pion mass of $315\text{ MeV}$ and $227\text{ MeV}$. The $\sigma$-meson parameters are extracted using various parametrizations of the scattering amplitude. The results obtained from a chiral unitary parametrization are extrapolated to the physical point and read $M_\sigma = (440^{+10}_{-16}(50) - i\,240(20)(25))\text{ MeV}$, where the uncertainties in the parentheses denote the stochastic and systematic ones. The behavior of the $\sigma$-meson parameters with increasing pion mass is discussed as well.

Impact of the domain structure in ferroelectric substrate on graphene conductance (authors' review)
Review is devoted to the recent theoretical studies of the impact of domain structure of ferroelectric substrate on graphene conductance. An analytical description of the hysteresis memory effect in a field effect transistor based on graphene-on-ferroelectric, taking into account absorbed dipole layers on the free surface of graphene and localized states on its interfaces is considered. The aspects of the recently developed theory of p-n junctions conductivity in a graphene channel on a ferroelectric substrate, which are created by a 180-degree ferroelectric domain structure, are analyzed, and cases of different current regimes from ballistic to diffusion one are considered. The influence of size effects in such systems and the possibility of using the results for improving the characteristics of field effect transistors with a graphene channel, non-volatile ferroelectric memory cells with random access, sensors, as well as for miniaturization of various devices of functional nanoelectronics are discussed.

Categorifying induction formulae via divergent series
We show how to get explicit induction formulae for finite group representations, and more generally for rational Green functors, by summing a divergent series over Dwyer's subgroup and centralizer decomposition spaces. This results in formulae with rational coefficients. The former space yields a well-known induction formula, the latter yields a new one. As essentially immediate corollaries of the existing literature, we get similar formulae in group cohomology and stable splittings of classifying spaces.

Benefits of V2V Communication for Autonomous and Connected Vehicles
In this paper, we investigate the benefits of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication for autonomous vehicles and provide results on how V2V information helps reduce employable time headway in the presence of parasitic lags. For a string of vehicles adopting a Constant Time Headway Policy (CTHP) and availing the on-board information of predecessor's vehicle position and velocity, the minimum employable time headway ($h_{\min}$) must be lower bounded by $2\tau_0$ for string stability, where $\tau_0$ is the maximum parasitic actuation lag. In this paper, we quantify the benefits of using V2V communication in terms of a reduction in the employable time headway: (1) If the position and velocity information of $r$ immediately preceding vehicles is used, then $h_{\min}$ can be reduced to ${4\tau_0}/{(1+r)}$; (2) furthermore, if the acceleration of `$r$' immediately preceding vehicles is used, then $h_{\min}$ can be reduced to ${2\tau_0}/{(1+r)}$; and (3) if the position, velocity and acceleration of the immediate and the $r$-th predecessors are used, then $h_{\min} \ge {2\tau_0}/{(1+r)}$. Note that cases (2) and (3) provide the same lower bound on the minimum employable time headway; however, case (3) requires much less communicated information.

Exponentially Light Dark Matter from Coannihilation
Dark matter may be a thermal relic whose abundance is set by mutual annihilations among multiple species. Traditionally, this coannihilation scenario has been applied to weak scale dark matter that is highly degenerate with other states. We show that coannihilation among states with split masses points to dark matter that is exponentially lighter than the weak scale, down to the keV scale. We highlight the regime where dark matter does not participate in the annihilations that dilute its number density. In this "sterile coannihilation" limit, the dark matter relic density is independent of its couplings, implying a broad parameter space of thermal relic targets for future experiments. Light dark matter from coannihilation evades stringent bounds from the cosmic microwave background, but will be tested by future direct detection, fixed target, and long-lived particle experiments.

Non-classical correlations in quantum mechanics and beyond
Is entanglement an exclusive feature of quantum systems, or is it common to all non-classical theories? And if this is the case, how strong is quantum mechanical entanglement as compared to that exhibited by other theories? The first part of this thesis deals with these questions by considering quantum theory as part of a wider landscape of physical theories, collectively called general probabilistic theories (GPTs). Among the other things, this manuscript contains a detailed introduction to the abstract state space formalism for GPTs. We start with a comprehensive review of the proof of a famous theorem by Ludwig that constitutes one of its cornerstones (Ch. 1). After explaining the basic rules of the game, we translate our questions into precise conjectures and present our progress toward a full solution (Ch. 2). In Ch. 3 we consider entanglement at the level of measurements instead of states, focusing on one of its main implications, i.e. data hiding. We determine the maximal data hiding strength that a quantum mechanical system can exhibit, and also the maximum value among all GPTs, finding that the former scales as the square root of the latter. In the second part of this manuscript we look into quantum entanglement. In Ch. 4 we discuss the entanglement transformation properties of a class of maps that model white noise acting either locally or globally on a bipartite system. In Ch. 5 we employ matrix analysis tools to develop a unified approach to Gaussian entanglement. The third part of this thesis concerns more general forms of non-classical correlations in bipartite continuous variable systems. In Ch. 6 we devise a general scheme that allows to consistently classify correlations of bipartite Gaussian states into classical and quantum ones. Finally, Ch. 7 explores some problems connected with a certain strong subadditivity matrix inequality.

Nuclear-recoil energy scale in CDMS II silicon dark-matter detectors
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS II) experiment aims to detect dark matter particles that elastically scatter from nuclei in semiconductor detectors. The resulting nuclear-recoil energy depositions are detected by ionization and phonon sensors. Neutrons produce a similar spectrum of low-energy nuclear recoils in such detectors, while most other backgrounds produce electron recoils. The absolute energy scale for nuclear recoils is necessary to interpret results correctly. The energy scale can be determined in CDMS II silicon detectors using neutrons incident from a broad-spectrum $^{252}$Cf source, taking advantage of a prominent resonance in the neutron elastic scattering cross section of silicon at a recoil (neutron) energy near 20 (182) keV. Results indicate that the phonon collection efficiency for nuclear recoils is $4.8^{+0.7}_{-0.9}$% lower than for electron recoils of the same energy. Comparisons of the ionization signals for nuclear recoils to those measured previously by other groups at higher electric fields indicate that the ionization collection efficiency for CDMS II silicon detectors operated at $\sim$4 V/cm is consistent with 100% for nuclear recoils below 20 keV and gradually decreases for larger energies to $\sim$75% at 100 keV. The impact of these measurements on previously published CDMS II silicon results is small.

Renormalization group analysis of dipolar Heisenberg model on square lattice
We present a detailed functional renormalization group analysis of spin-1/2 dipolar Heisenberg model on square lattice. This model is similar to the well known $J_1$-$J_2$ model and describes the pseudospin degrees of freedom of polar molecules confined in deep optical lattice with long-range anisotropic dipole-dipole interactions. Previous study of this model based on tensor network ansatz indicates a paramagnetic ground state for certain dipole tilting angles which can be tuned in experiments to control the exchange couplings. The tensor ansatz formulated on a small cluster unit cell is inadequate to describe the spiral order, and therefore the phase diagram at high azimuthal tilting angles remains undetermined. Here we obtain the full phase diagram of the model from numerical pseudofermion functional renormalization group calculations. We show that an extended quantum paramagnetic phase is realized between the N\'{e}el and stripe/spiral phase. In this region, the spin susceptibility flows smoothly down to the lowest numerical renormalization group scales with no sign of divergence or breakdown of the flow, in sharp contrast to the flow towards the long-range ordered phases. Our results provide further evidence that the dipolar Heisenberg model is a fertile ground for quantum spin liquids.

A Novel Model of Cancer-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy and the Role of TRPA1 in Pain Transduction
Background. Models of cancer-induced neuropathy are designed by injecting cancer cells near the peripheral nerves. The interference of tissue-resident immune cells does not allow a direct contact with nerve fibres which affects the tumor microenvironment and the invasion process. Methods. Anaplastic tumor-1 (AT-1) cells were inoculated within the sciatic nerves (SNs) of male Copenhagen rats. Lumbar dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) and the SNs were collected on days 3, 7, 14, and 21. SN tissues were examined for morphological changes and DRG tissues for immunofluorescence, electrophoretic tendency, and mRNA quantification. Hypersensitivities to cold, mechanical, and thermal stimuli were determined. HC-030031, a selective TRPA1 antagonist, was used to treat cold allodynia. Results. Nociception thresholds were identified on day 6. Immunofluorescent micrographs showed overexpression of TRPA1 on days 7 and 14 and of CGRP on day 14 until day 21. Both TRPA1 and CGRP were coexpressed on the same cells. Immunoblots exhibited an increase in TRPA1 expression on day 14. TRPA1 mRNA underwent an increase on day 7 (normalized to 18S). Injection of HC-030031 transiently reversed the cold allodynia. Conclusion. A novel and a promising model of cancer-induced neuropathy was established, and the role of TRPA1 and CGRP in pain transduction was examined.

Simultaneous Task Allocation and Planning Under Uncertainty
We propose novel techniques for task allocation and planning in multi-robot systems operating in uncertain environments. Task allocation is performed simultaneously with planning, which provides more detailed information about individual robot behaviour, but also exploits independence between tasks to do so efficiently. We use Markov decision processes to model robot behaviour and linear temporal logic to specify tasks and safety constraints. Building upon techniques and tools from formal verification, we show how to generate a sequence of multi-robot policies, iteratively refining them to reallocate tasks if individual robots fail, and providing probabilistic guarantees on the performance (and safe operation) of the team of robots under the resulting policy. We implement our approach and evaluate it on a benchmark multi-robot example.

The tangent space to the space of 0-cycles
Let $S$ be a Noetherian scheme, and let $X$ be a scheme over $S$, such that all relative symmetric powers of $X$ over $S$ exist. Assume that either $S$ is of pure characteristic $0$ or $X$ is flat over $S$. Assume also that the structural morphism from $X$ to $S$ admits a section, and use it to construct the connected infinite symmetric power ${\rm Sym}^{\infty }(X/S)$ of the scheme $X$ over $S$. This is a commutative monoid whose group completion ${\rm Sym}^{\infty }(X/S)^+$ is an abelian group object in the category of set valued sheaves on the Nisnevich site over $S$, which is known to be isomorphic, as a Nisnevich sheaf, to the sheaf of relative $0$-cycles in Rydh's sense. Being restricted on seminormal schemes over $\mathbb Q$, it is also isomorphic to the sheaf of relative $0$-cycles in the sense of Suslin-Voevodsky and Koll\'ar. In the paper we construct a locally ringed Nisnevich-\'etale site of $0$-cycles ${\rm Sym}^{\infty }(X/S)^+_{\rm {Nis-et}}$, such that the category of \'etale neighbourhoods, at each point $P$ on it, is cofiltered. This yields the sheaf of K\"ahler differentials $\Omega ^1_{{\rm Sym}^{\infty }(X/S)^+}$ and its dual, the tangent sheaf $T_{{\rm Sym}^{\infty }(X/S)^+}$ on the space ${\rm Sym}^{\infty }(X/S)^+$. Applying the stalk functor, we obtain the stalk $T_{{\rm Sym}^{\infty }(X/S)^+,P}$ of the tangent sheaf at $P$, whose tensor product with the residue field $\kappa (P)$ is our tangent space to the space of $0$-cycles at $P$.

On the Improved Nonlinear Tracking Differentiator based Nonlinear PID Controller Design
This paper presents a new improved nonlinear tracking differentiator (INTD) with hyperbolic tangent function in the state space system. The stability and convergence of the INTD are thoroughly investigated and proved. Through the error analysis, the proposed INTD can extract differentiation of any piecewise smooth nonlinear signal to reach a high accuracy. the INTD has the required filtering features and can cope with th nonlinearities caused by the niose. Through simulations, the INTD is implemented as signal derivative generator for the closed loop feedback control system with a nolinear PID controller for the nonlinear Mass Spring Damper system and showed that it could achieve the signal tracking and differentiation faster with a minimum mean square error.

Hierarchical relaxation dynamics in a tilted two-band Bose-Hubbard model
We numerically examine slow and hierarchical relaxation dynamics of interacting bosons described by a tilted two-band Bose-Hubbard model. The system is found to exhibit signatures of quantum chaos within the spectrum and the validity of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis for relevant physical observables is demonstrated for certain parameter regimes. Using the truncated Wigner representation in the semiclassical limit of the system, dynamics of relevant observables reveal hierarchical relaxation and the appearance of prethermalized states is studied from the perspective of statistics of the underlying mean-field trajectories. The observed prethermalization scenario can be attributed to different stages of glassy dynamics in the mode-time configuration space due to dynamical phase transition between ergodic and nonergodic trajectories.

The Serre-Swan theorem for normed modules
The aim of this note is to analyse the structure of the $L^0$-normed $L^0$-modules over a metric measure space. These are a tool that has been introduced by N. Gigli to develop a differential calculus on spaces verifying the Riemannian Curvature Dimension condition. More precisely, we discuss under which conditions an $L^0$-normed $L^0$-module can be viewed as the space of sections of a suitable measurable Banach bundle and in which sense such correspondence can be actually made into an equivalence of categories.

A Brandom-ian view of Reinforcement Learning towards strong-AI
The analytic philosophy of Robert Brandom, based on the ideas of pragmatism, paints a picture of sapience, through inferentialism. In this paper, we present a theory, that utilizes essential elements of Brandom's philosophy, towards the objective of achieving strong-AI. We do this by connecting the constitutive elements of reinforcement learning and the Game Of Giving and Asking For Reasons. Further, following Brandom's prescriptive thoughts, we restructure the popular reinforcement learning algorithm A3C, and show that RL algorithms can be tuned towards the objective of strong-AI.

Magnetically-defined topological edge plasmons in edgeless electron gas
Topological materials bear gapped excitations in bulk yet protected gapless excitations at boundaries. Magnetoplasmons (MPs), as high-frequency density excitations of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in a perpendicular magnetic field, embody a prototype of band topology for bosons. The time-reversal-breaking magnetic field opens a topological gap for bulk MPs up to the cyclotron frequency; topologically-protected edge magnetoplasmons (EMPs) bridge the bulk gap and propagate unidirectionally along system's boundaries. However, all the EMPs known to date adhere to physical edges where the electron density terminates abruptly. This restriction has made device application extremely difficult. Here we demonstrate a new class of topological edge plasmons -- domain-boundary magnetoplasmons (DBMPs), within a uniform edgeless 2DEG. Such DBMPs arise at the domain boundaries of an engineered sign-changing magnetic field and are protected by the difference of gap Chern numbers (+/-1) across the magnetic domains. They propagate unidirectionally along the domain boundaries and are immune to domain defects. Moreover, they exhibit wide tunability in the microwave frequency range under an applied magnetic field or gate voltage. Our study opens a new direction to realize high-speed reconfigurable topological devices.

Translating Questions into Answers using DBPedia n-triples
In this paper we present a question answering system using a neural network to interpret questions learned from the DBpedia repository. We train a sequence-to-sequence neural network model with n-triples extracted from the DBpedia Infobox Properties. Since these properties do not represent the natural language, we further used question-answer dialogues from movie subtitles. Although the automatic evaluation shows a low overlap of the generated answers compared to the gold standard set, a manual inspection of the showed promising outcomes from the experiment for further work.

A Bayesian framework for molecular strain identification from mixed diagnostic samples
We provide a mathematical formulation and develop a computational framework for identifying multiple strains of microorganisms from mixed samples of DNA. Our method is applicable in public health domains where efficient identification of pathogens is paramount, e.g., for the monitoring of disease outbreaks. We formulate strain identification as an inverse problem that aims at simultaneously estimating a binary matrix (encoding presence or absence of mutations in each strain) and a real-valued vector (representing the mixture of strains) such that their product is approximately equal to the measured data vector. The problem at hand has a similar structure to blind deconvolution, except for the presence of binary constraints, which we enforce in our approach. Following a Bayesian approach, we derive a posterior density. We present two computational methods for solving the non-convex maximum a posteriori estimation problem. The first one is a local optimization method that is made efficient and scalable by decoupling the problem into smaller independent subproblems, whereas the second one yields a global minimizer by converting the problem into a convex mixed-integer quadratic programming problem. The decoupling approach also provides an efficient way to integrate over the posterior. This provides useful information about the ambiguity of the underdetermined problem and, thus, the uncertainty associated with numerical solutions. We evaluate the potential and limitations of our framework in silico using synthetic and experimental data with available ground truths.

we provide a mathematical formulation and develop a computational framework for identifying multiple strains of microorganisms from mixed samples of dna our method is applicable in public health domains where efficient identification of pathogens is paramount eg for the monitoring of disease outbreaks we formulate strain identification as an inverse problem that aims at simultaneously estimating a binary matrix encoding presence or absence of mutations in each strain and a realvalued vector representing the mixture of strains such that their product is approximately equal to the measured data vector the problem at hand has a similar structure to blind deconvolution except for the presence of binary constraints which we enforce in our approach following a bayesian approach we derive a posterior density we present two computational methods for solving the nonconvex maximum a posteriori estimation problem the first one is a local optimization method that is made efficient and scalable by decoupling the problem into smaller independent subproblems whereas the second one yields a global minimizer by converting the problem into a convex mixedinteger quadratic programming problem the decoupling approach also provides an efficient way to integrate over the posterior this provides useful information about the ambiguity of the underdetermined problem and thus the uncertainty associated with numerical solutions we evaluate the potential and limitations of our framework in silico using synthetic and experimental data with available ground truths

Rapidly forming, slowly evolving, spatial patterns from quasi-cycle Mexican Hat coupling
A lattice-indexed family of stochastic processes has quasi-cycle oscillations if its otherwise-damped oscillations are sustained by noise. Such a family performs the reaction part of a discrete stochastic reaction-diffusion system when we insert a local Mexican Hat-type, difference of Gaussians, coupling on a one-dimensional and on a two-dimensional lattice. Quasi-cycles are a proposed mechanism for the production of neural oscillations, and Mexican Hat coupling is ubiquitous in the brain. Thus this combination might provide insight into the function of neural oscillations in the brain. Importantly, we study this system only in the transient case, on time intervals before saturation occurs. In one dimension, for weak coupling, we find that the phases of the coupled quasi-cycles synchronize (establish a relatively constant relationship, or phase lock) rapidly at coupling strengths lower than those required to produce spatial patterns of their amplitudes. In two dimensions the amplitude patterns form more quickly, but there remain parameter regimes in which phase synchronization patterns form without being accompanied by clear amplitude patterns. At higher coupling strengths we find patterns both of phase synchronization and of amplitude (resembling Turing patterns) corresponding to the patterns of phase synchronization. Specific properties of these patterns are controlled by the parameters of the reaction and of the Mexican Hat coupling.

Mixed Voltage Angle and Frequency Droop Control for Transient Stability of Interconnected Microgrids with Loss of PMU Measurements
We consider the problem of guaranteeing transient stability of a network of interconnected angle droop controlled microgrids, where voltage phase angle measurements from phasor measurement units (PMUs) may be lost, leading to poor performance and instability. In this paper, we propose a novel mixed voltage angle and frequency droop control (MAFD) framework to improve the reliability of such angle droop controlled microgrid interconnections. In this framework, when the phase angle measurement is lost at a microgrid, conventional frequency droop control is temporarily used for primary control in place of angle droop control. We model the network of interconnected microgrids with the MAFD architecture as a nonlinear switched system. We then propose a dissipativity-based distributed secondary control design to guarantee transient stability of this network under arbitrary switching between angle droop and frequency droop controllers. We demonstrate the performance of this control framework by simulation on a test 123-feeder distribution network.

Proximal Activation of Smooth Functions in Splitting Algorithms for Convex Image Recovery
Structured convex optimization problems typically involve a mix of smooth and nonsmooth functions. The common practice is to activate the smooth functions via their gradient and the nonsmooth ones via their proximity operator. We show that, although intuitively natural, this approach is not necessarily the most efficient numerically and that, in particular, activating all the functions proximally may be advantageous. To make this viewpoint viable computationally, we derive a number of new examples of proximity operators of smooth convex functions arising in applications. A novel variational model to relax inconsistent convex feasibility problems is also investigated within the proposed framework. Several numerical applications to image recovery are presented to compare the behavior of fully proximal versus mixed proximal/gradient implementations of several splitting algorithms.

Study of the $ s-\bar s $ asymmetry in the proton
The study of $ s-\bar s $ asymmetry is essential to better understand of the structure of nucleon and also the perturbative and nonperturbative mechanisms for sea quark generation. Actually, the nature and dynamical origins of this asymmetry have always been an interesting subject to research both experimentally and theoretically. One of the most powerful models can lead to $ s-\bar s $ asymmetry is the meson-baryon model (MBM). In this work, using a simplified configuration of this model suggested by Pumplin, we calculate the $ s-\bar s $ asymmetry for different values of cutoff parameter $\Lambda$, to study the dependence of model to this parameter and also to estimate the theoretical uncertainty imposed on the results due to its uncertainty. Then, we study the evolution of distributions obtained both at next-to-leading order (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) using different evolution schemes. It is shown that the evolution of the intrinsic quark distributions from a low initial scale, as suggested by Chang and Pang, is not a good choice at NNLO using variable flavor number scheme (VFNS).

Analysis of Decimation on Finite Frames with Sigma-Delta Quantization
In Analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion, signal decimation has been proven to greatly improve the efficiency of data storage while maintaining high accuracy. When one couples signal decimation with the $\Sigma\Delta$ quantization scheme, the reconstruction error decays exponentially with respect to the bit-rate. In this study, similar results have been proven for finite unitarily generated frames. We have devised a process called alternative decimation on finite frames that is compatible with $\Sigma\Delta$ quantization up to the second order. In both cases, decimation results in exponential error decay with respect to the bit usage.

Fast Convergence for Stochastic and Distributed Gradient Descent in the Interpolation Limit
Modern supervised learning techniques, particularly those using deep nets, involve fitting high dimensional labelled data sets with functions containing very large numbers of parameters. Much of this work is empirical. Interesting phenomena have been observed that require theoretical explanations; however the non-convexity of the loss functions complicates the analysis. Recently it has been proposed that the success of these techniques rests partly in the effectiveness of the simple stochastic gradient descent algorithm in the so called interpolation limit in which all labels are fit perfectly. This analysis is made possible since the SGD algorithm reduces to a stochastic linear system near the interpolating minimum of the loss function. Here we exploit this insight by presenting and analyzing a new distributed algorithm for gradient descent, also in the interpolating limit. The distributed SGD algorithm presented in the paper corresponds to gradient descent applied to a simple penalized distributed loss function, $L({\bf w}_1,...,{\bf w}_n) = \Sigma_i l_i({\bf w}_i) + \mu \sum_{<i,j>}|{\bf w}_i-{\bf w}_j|^2$. Here each node holds only one sample, and its own parameter vector. The notation $<i,j>$ denotes edges of a connected graph defining the links between nodes. It is shown that this distributed algorithm converges linearly (ie the error reduces exponentially with iteration number), with a rate $1-\frac{\eta}{n}\lambda_{min}(H)<R<1$ where $\lambda_{min}(H)$ is the smallest nonzero eigenvalue of the sample covariance or the Hessian H. In contrast with previous usage of similar penalty functions to enforce consensus between nodes, in the interpolating limit it is not required to take the penalty parameter to infinity for consensus to occur. The analysis further reinforces the utility of the interpolation limit in the theoretical treatment of modern machine learning algorithms.

Spin and Valley States in Gate-defined Bilayer Graphene Quantum Dots
In bilayer graphene, electrostatic confinement can be realized by a suitable design of top and back gate electrodes. We measure electronic transport through a bilayer graphene quantum dot, which is laterally confined by gapped regions and connected to the leads via p-n junctions. Single electron and hole occupancy is realized and charge carriers $n = 1, 2,\dots 50$ can be filled successively into the quantum system with charging energies exceeding $10 \ \mathrm{meV}$. For the lowest quantum states, we can clearly observe valley and Zeeman splittings with a spin g-factor of $g_{s}\approx 2$. In the low field-limit, the valley splitting depends linearly on the perpendicular magnetic field and is in qualitative agreement with calculations.

A Newton-CG Algorithm with Complexity Guarantees for Smooth Unconstrained Optimization
We consider minimization of a smooth nonconvex objective function using an iterative algorithm based on Newton's method and the linear conjugate gradient algorithm, with explicit detection and use of negative curvature directions for the Hessian of the objective function. The algorithm tracks Newton-conjugate gradient procedures developed in the 1980s closely, but includes enhancements that allow worst-case complexity results to be proved for convergence to points that satisfy approximate first-order and second-order optimality conditions. The complexity results match the best known results in the literature for second-order methods.

Stochastic Games for Fuel Followers Problem: N vs MFG
In this paper we formulate and analyze an $N$-player stochastic game of the classical fuel follower problem and its Mean Field Game (MFG) counterpart. For the $N$-player game, we obtain the Nash Equilibrium (NE) explicitly by deriving and analyzing a system of Hamilton--Jacobi--Bellman (HJB) equations, and by establishing the existence of a unique strong solution to the associated Skorokhod problem on an unbounded polyhedron with an oblique reflection. For the MFG, we derive a bang-bang type NE under some mild technical conditions and by the viscosity solution approach. We also show that this solution is an $\epsilon$-NE to the $N$-player game, with $\epsilon =O(\frac{1}{\sqrt{N}})$. The $N$-player game and the MFG differ in that the NE for the former is state dependent while the NE for the latter is threshold-type bang-bang policy where the threshold is state independent. Our analysis shows that the NE for a stationary MFG may not be the NE for the corresponding MFG.

The Importance of Multiple Observation Methods to Characterize Potentially Habitable Exoplanets: Ground- and Space-Based Synergies
The discovery of a truly habitable exoplanet would be one of the most important events in the history of science. However, the nature and distribution of habitable environments on exoplanets is currently unconstrained. The exoplanet revolution teaches us to expect surprises. Thus, versatile, capable observatories, and multiple observation techniques are needed to study the full diversity of habitable environments. Here, we summarize the challenges and opportunities of observing planets orbiting M dwarf vs. FGK dwarfs, which are best targeted with different methods.

Using the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), we have obtained a direct trigonometric parallax for the nearest metal-poor globular cluster, NGC 6397. Although trigonometric parallaxes have been previously measured for many nearby open clusters, this is the first parallax for an ancient metal-poor population -- one that is used as a fundamental template in many stellar population studies. This high-precision measurement was enabled by the HST/WFC3 spatial-scanning mode, providing hundreds of astrometric measurements for dozens of stars in the cluster and also for Galactic field stars along the same sightline. We find a parallax of 0.418 +/- 0.013 +/- 0.018 mas (statistical, systematic), corresponding to a true distance modulus of 11.89 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.09 mag (2.39 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.10 kpc). The V luminosity at the stellar main sequence turnoff implies an absolute cluster age of 13.4 +/- 0.7 +/- 1.2 Gyr.

Towards Noise Simulation in Interacting Nonequilibrium Systems Strongly Coupled to Baths
Progress in experimental techniques at nanoscale made measurements of noise in molecular junctions possible. These data are important source of information not accessible through average flux measurements. Emergence of optoelectronics, recently shown possibility of strong light-matter couplings, and developments in the field of quantum thermodynamics are making counting statistics measurements of even higher importance. Theoretical methods for noise evaluation in first principles simulations can be roughly divided into approaches applicable in the case of weak intra-system interactions, and those treating strong interactions for systems weakly coupled to baths. We argue that due to structure of its diagrammatic expansion and the fact of utilizing many-body states as a basis of its formulation recently introduced nonequilibrium Hubbard Green functions formulation is a relatively inexpensive method suitable for evaluation of noise characteristics in first principles simulations over wide range of parameters. We illustrate viability of the approach by simulations of noise and noise spectrum within generic models for non-, weakly and strongly interacting systems. Results of the simulations are compared to exact data (where available) and to simulations performed within approaches best suited for each of the three parameter regimes.

On generalized and fractional derivatives and their applications to classical mechanics
(Draft 3) A generalized differential operator on the real line is defined by means of a limiting process. These generalized derivatives include, as a special case, the classical derivative and current studies of fractional differential operators. All such operators satisfy properties such as the sum, product/quotient rules, chain rule, etc. We study a Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem with generalized derivatives and show that the general case is actually a consequence of standard Sturm-Liouville Theory. As an application of the developments herein we find the general solution of a generalized harmonic oscillator. We also consider the classical problem of a planar motion under a central force and show that the general solution of this problem is still generically an ellipse, and that this result is true independently of the choice of the generalized derivatives being used modulo a time shift. The previous result on the generic nature of phase plane orbits is extended to the classical gravitational n-body problem of Newton to show that the global nature of these orbits is independent of the choice of the generalized derivatives being used in defining the force law (modulo a time shift). Finally, restricting the generalized derivatives to a special class of fractional derivatives, we consider the question of motion under gravity with and without resistance and arrive at a new notion of time that depends on the fractional parameter. The results herein are meant to clarify and extend many known results in the literature and intended to show the limitations and use of generalized derivatives and corresponding fractional derivatives.

Non-radiative decay and stability of $N$-heterocyclic carbene iridium(III) complexes
Devices based on deep-blue emitting iridium (III) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have recently been shown to give excellent performance as phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs). To facilitate the design of even better deep-blue phosphorescent emitters we carried out density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the lowest triplet ($T_1$) potential-energy surfaces (PES) upon lengthening the iridium-ligand (Ir-C) bonds. Relativistic time dependent-DFT (TDDFT) calculations demonstrate that this changes the nature of $T_1$ from a highly-emissive metal-to-ligand charge transfer ($^3$MLCT) state to a metal centered ($^3$MC) state where the radiative decay rate is orders of magnitude slower than that of the $^3$MLCT state. We identify the elongation of an Ir-C bond on the NHC group as the pathway with lowest energy barrier between the $^3$MLCT and $^3$MC states for all complexes studied and show that the barrier height is correlated with the experimentally measured non-radiative decay rate. This suggests that the thermal population of $^3$MC states is the dominant non-radiative decay mechanism at room temperature. We show that the $^3$MLCT $\rightarrow$ $^3$MC transition is reversible, in marked contrast to other deep blue phosphors containing coordinating nitrogen atoms, where the population of $^3$MC states breaks Ir-N bonds. This suggests that, as well as improved efficiency, blue PHOLEDs containing phosphors where the metal is only coordinated by carbon atoms will have improved device lifetimes.

Issued for Abuse: Measuring the Underground Trade in Code Signing Certificate
Recent measurements of the Windows code-signing certificate ecosystem have highlighted various forms of abuse that allow malware authors to produce malicious code carrying valid digital signatures. However, the underground trade that allows miscreants to acquire such certificates is not well understood. In this paper, we illuminate two aspects of this trade. First, we investigate 4 leading vendors of Authenticode certificates, we document how they conduct business, and we estimate their market share. Second, we collect a data set of recently signed malware and we use it to study the relationships among malware developers, malware families and the certificates. We also use information from the black market to fingerprint the certificates traded and to identify when the are likely used to sign malware in the wild. Using these methods, we document a shift in the methods that malware authors employ to obtain valid digital signatures. While prior studies have reported the use of code-signing certificates that had been compromised or obtained directly from legitimate Certification Authorities, we observe that, in 2017, these methods have become secondary to purchasing certificates from underground vendors. We also find that the need to bypass platform protections such as Microsoft Defender SmartScreen plays a growing role in driving the demand for Authenticode certificates. Together, these findings suggest that the trade in certificates issued for abuse represents an emerging segment of the underground economy.

We introduce the notion of a \textit{weight-almost greedy} basis and show that a basis for a real Banach space is $w$-almost greedy if and only if it is both quasi-greedy and $w$-democratic. We also introduce the notion of \textit{weight-semi-greedy} basis and show that a $w$-almost greedy basis is $w$-semi-greedy and that the converse holds if the Banach space has finite cotype.

Distributed Computation of Wasserstein Barycenters over Networks
We propose a new \cu{class-optimal} algorithm for the distributed computation of Wasserstein Barycenters over networks. Assuming that each node in a graph has a probability distribution, we prove that every node can reach the barycenter of all distributions held in the network by using local interactions compliant with the topology of the graph. We provide an estimate for the minimum number of communication rounds required for the proposed method to achieve arbitrary relative precision both in the optimality of the solution and the consensus among all agents for undirected fixed networks.

Hard magnetic properties in nanoflake van der Waals Fe3GeTe2
Two dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials have demonstrated fascinating optical, electrical and thickness-dependent characteristics. These have been explored by numerous authors but reports on magnetic properties and spintronic applications of 2D vdW materials are scarce by comparison. By performing anomalous Hall effect transport measurements, we have characterised the thickness dependent magnetic properties of single crystalline vdW Fe3GeTe2. The nanoflakes of this vdW metallic material exhibit a single hard magnetic phase with a near square-shaped magnetic loop, large coercivity (up to 550 mT at 2 K), a Curie temperature near 200 K and strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Using criticality analysis, we confirmed the existence of magnetic coupling between vdW atomic layers and obtained an estimated coupling length of ~ 5 vdW layers in Fe3GeTe2. Furthermore, the hard magnetic behaviour of Fe3GeTe2 can be well described by a proposed model. The magnetic properties of Fe3GeTe2 highlight its potential for integration into vdW magnetic heterostructures, paving the way for spintronic research and applications based on these devices.

Blurring the boundaries between topological and non-topological phenomena in dots
We investigate the electronic and transport properties of topological and trivial InAs$_{1-x}$Bi$_x$ quantum dots (QDs). By considering the rapid band gap change within valence band anticrossing theory for InAs$_{1-x}$Bi$_x$, we predicted that Bi-alloyed quantum wells become $\sim 30$meV gapped 2D topological insulators for well widths $d>6.9$nm $(x = 0.15)$ and obtain the $\boldsymbol{k.p}$ parameters of the corresponding Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (BHZ) model. We analytically solve this model for cylindrical confinement via modified Bessel functions. For non-topological dots we find "geometrically protected" discrete helical edge-like states, i.e., Kramers pairs with spin-angular-momentum locking, in stark contrast with ordinary InAs QDs. For a conduction window with four edge states, we find that the two-terminal conductance ${\cal G}$ vs. the QD radius $R$ and the gate $V_g$ controlling its levels shows a double peak at $2e^2/h$ for both topological and trivial QDs. In contrast, when bulk and edge-state Kramers pairs coexist and are degenerate, a single-peak resonance emerges. Our results blur the boundaries between topological and non-topological phenomena for conductance measurements in small systems such as QDs. Bi-based BHZ QDs should also prove important as hosts to edge spin qubits.

Reconstruction of inclusion from boundary measurements
We consider the problem of reconstructing of the boundary of an unknown inclusion together with its conductivity from the localized Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. We give an exact reconstruction procedure and apply the method to an inverse boundary value problem for the system of the equations in the theory of elasticity.

Stability and Well-posedness of a Nonlinear Railway Track Model
Railway tracks rest on a foundation known for exhibiting nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. Railway track deflections are modeled by a semilinear partial differential equation. This paper studies the stability of solutions to this equation in presence of an input. With the aid of a suitable Lyapunov function, existence and exponential stability of classical solutions is established for certain inputs. The Lyapunov function is further used to find an a-priori estimate of the solutions, and also to study the input-to-state stability (ISS) of mild solutions.

Relating Cut and Paste Invariants and TQFTs
In this paper, we shall be concerned with a relation between TQFTs and cut and paste invariants introduced by Karras, Kreck, Neumann and Ossa. Cut and paste invariants, or SK invariants, are functions on the set of smooth manifolds that are invariant under the cutting and pasting operation. Central to the work in this paper are also SKK invariants, whose values on cut and paste equivalent manifolds differ by an error term depending only on the glueing diffeomorphism. Here we investigate a surprisingly natural group homomorphism between the group of invertible TQFTs and the group of SKK invariants and describe how these groups fit into an exact sequence. We conclude in particular that all positive real-valued SKK invariants can be realized as restrictions of invertible TQFTs. All manifolds are smooth and oriented throughout unless stated otherwise.

The Advantage of Doubling: A Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach to Studying the Double Team in the NBA
During the 2017 NBA playoffs, Celtics coach Brad Stevens was faced with a difficult decision when defending against the Cavaliers: "Do you double and risk giving up easy shots, or stay at home and do the best you can?" It's a tough call, but finding a good defensive strategy that effectively incorporates doubling can make all the difference in the NBA. In this paper, we analyze double teaming in the NBA, quantifying the trade-off between risk and reward. Using player trajectory data pertaining to over 643,000 possessions, we identified when the ball handler was double teamed. Given these data and the corresponding outcome (i.e., was the defense successful), we used deep reinforcement learning to estimate the quality of the defensive actions. We present qualitative and quantitative results summarizing our learned defensive strategy for defending. We show that our policy value estimates are predictive of points per possession and win percentage. Overall, the proposed framework represents a step toward a more comprehensive understanding of defensive strategies in the NBA.

Model reduction methods for classical stochastic systems with fast-switching environments: reduced master equations, stochastic differential equations, and applications
We study classical stochastic systems with discrete states, coupled to switching external environments. For fast environmental processes we derive reduced dynamics for the system itself, focusing on corrections to the adiabatic limit of infinite time scale separation. In some cases, this leads to master equations with negative transition `rates' or bursting events. We devise a simulation algorithm in discrete time to unravel these master equations into sample paths, and provide an interpretation of bursting events. Focusing on stochastic population dynamics coupled to external environments, we discuss a series of approximation schemes combining expansions in the inverse switching rate of the environment, and a Kramers--Moyal expansion in the inverse size of the population. This places the different approximations in relation to existing work on piecewise-deterministic and piecewise-diffusive Markov processes. We apply the model reduction methods to different examples including systems in biology and a model of crack propagation.

Presentations of Categories of Modules using the Cautis-Kamnitzer-Morrison Principle
We use duality theorems to obtain presentations of some categories of modules. To derive these presentations we generalize a result of Cautis-Kamnitzer-Morrison [arXiv:1210.6437v4]: Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a reductive Lie algebra, and $A$ an algebra, both over $\mathbb{C}$. Consider a $(\mathfrak{g} , A)$-bimodule $P$ in which (a) $P$ has a multiplicity free decomposition into irreducible $(\mathfrak{g} , A)$-bimodules. (b) $P$ is "saturated" i.e. for any irreducible $\mathfrak{g}$-module $V$, if every weight of $V$ is a weight of $P$, then $V$ is a submodule of $P$. We show that statements (a) and (b) are necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an isomorphism of categories between the full subcategory of $\mathcal{R}ep A$ whose objects are $\mathfrak{g}$-weight spaces of $P$, and a quotient of the category version of Lusztig's idempotented form, $\dot{{\mathcal{U}}} \mathfrak{g}$, formed by setting to zero all morphisms factoring through a collection of objects in $\dot{{\mathcal{U}}} \mathfrak{g}$ depending on $P$. This is essentially a categorical version of the identification of generalized Schur algebras with quotients of Lusztig's idempotented forms given by Doty in [arXiv:math/0305208]. Applied to Schur-Weyl Duality we obtain a diagrammatic presentation of the full subcategory of $\mathcal{R}ep S_d$ whose objects are direct sums of permutation modules, as well as an explicit description of the $\otimes$-product of morphisms between permutation modules. Applied to Brauer-Schur-Weyl Duality we obtain diagrammatic presentations of subcategories of $\mathcal{R}ep \mathcal{B}_{d}^{(- 2n)}$ and $\mathcal{R}ep \mathcal{B}_{r,s}^{(n)}$ whose Karoubi completion is the whole of $\mathcal{R}ep \mathcal{B}_{d}^{(- 2n)}$ and $\mathcal{R}ep \mathcal{B}_{r,s}^{(n)}$ respectively.

Multi-objective evolution for 3D RTS Micro
We attack the problem of controlling teams of autonomous units during skirmishes in real-time strategy games. Earlier work had shown promise in evolving control algorithm parameters that lead to high performance team behaviors similar to those favored by good human players in real-time strategy games like Starcraft. This algorithm specifically encoded parameterized kiting and fleeing behaviors and the genetic algorithm evolved these parameter values. In this paper we investigate using influence maps and potential fields alone to compactly represent and control real-time team behavior for entities that can maneuver in three dimensions. A two-objective fitness function that maximizes damage done and minimizes damage taken guides our multi-objective evolutionary algorithm. Preliminary results indicate that evolving friend and enemy unit potential field parameters for distance, weapon characteristics, and entity health suffice to produce complex, high performing, three-dimensional, team tactics.

Multiresolution Representations for Piecewise-Smooth Signals on Graphs
What is a mathematically rigorous way to describe the taxi-pickup distribution in Manhattan, or the profile information in online social networks? A deep understanding of representing those data not only provides insights to the data properties, but also benefits to many subsequent processing procedures, such as denoising, sampling, recovery and localization. In this paper, we model those complex and irregular data as piecewise-smooth graph signals and propose a graph dictionary to effectively represent those graph signals. We first propose the graph multiresolution analysis, which provides a principle to design good representations. We then propose a coarse-to-fine approach, which iteratively partitions a graph into two subgraphs until we reach individual nodes. This approach efficiently implements the graph multiresolution analysis and the induced graph dictionary promotes sparse representations piecewise-smooth graph signals. Finally, we validate the proposed graph dictionary on two tasks: approximation and localization. The empirical results show that the proposed graph dictionary outperforms eight other representation methods on six datasets, including traffic networks, social networks and point cloud meshes.

Comparison of Noisy Channels and Reverse Data-Processing Theorems
This paper considers the comparison of noisy channels from the viewpoint of statistical decision theory. Various orderings are discussed, all formalizing the idea that one channel is "better" than another for information transmission. The main result is an equivalence relation that is proved for classical channels, quantum channels with classical encoding, and quantum channels with quantum encoding.

Assessing a GTA professional development program
For the last four years, the School of Physics at Georgia Tech have been preparing new Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs) through a program that integrates pedagogy, physics content, and professional development strategies. Here we discuss various assessments we have used to evaluate the program, among them surveys, GTA self-reporting, and end-of-semester student evaluations. Our results indicate that GTAs who participate in the program find its practical activities useful, feel better prepared for teaching, make use of learner-centered teaching strategies, and receive higher scores in teaching evaluations.

Possible structural origin of superconductivity in Sr-doped Bi2Se3
Doping bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3) with elements such as copper and strontium (Sr) can induce superconductivity, making the doped materials interesting candidates to explore potential topological superconducting behaviors. It was thought that the superconductivity of doped Bi2Se3 was induced by dopant atoms intercalated in van der Waals gaps. However, several experiments have shown that the intercalation of dopant atoms may not necessarily make doped Bi2Se3 superconducting. Thus, the structural origin of superconductivity in doped Bi2Se3 remains an open question. Herein, we combined material synthesis and characterization, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and first-principles calculations to study the doping structure of Sr-doped Bi2Se3. We found that the emergence of superconductivity is strongly related with n-type dopant atoms. Atomic-level energy-dispersive X-ray mapping revealed various n-type Sr dopants that occupy intercalated and interstitial positions. First-principles calculations showed that the formation energy of a specific interstitial Sr doping position depends strongly on Sr doping level. This site changes from a metastable position at low Sr doping level to a stable position at high Sr doping level. The calculation results explain why quenching is necessary to obtain superconducting samples when the Sr doping level is low and also why slow furnace cooling can yield superconducting samples when the Sr doping level is high. Our findings suggest that Sr atoms doped at interstitial locations, instead of those intercalated in van der Waals gaps, are most likely to be responsible for the emergence of superconductivity in Sr-doped Bi2Se3.

doping bismuth selenide bi2se3 with elements such as copper and strontium sr can induce superconductivity making the doped materials interesting candidates to explore potential topological superconducting behaviors it was thought that the superconductivity of doped bi2se3 was induced by dopant atoms intercalated in van der waals gaps however several experiments have shown that the intercalation of dopant atoms may not necessarily make doped bi2se3 superconducting thus the structural origin of superconductivity in doped bi2se3 remains an open question herein we combined material synthesis and characterization highresolution transmission electron microscopy and firstprinciples calculations to study the doping structure of srdoped bi2se3 we found that the emergence of superconductivity is strongly related with ntype dopant atoms atomiclevel energydispersive xray mapping revealed various ntype sr dopants that occupy intercalated and interstitial positions firstprinciples calculations showed that the formation energy of a specific interstitial sr doping position depends strongly on sr doping level this site changes from a metastable position at low sr doping level to a stable position at high sr doping level the calculation results explain why quenching is necessary to obtain superconducting samples when the sr doping level is low and also why slow furnace cooling can yield superconducting samples when the sr doping level is high our findings suggest that sr atoms doped at interstitial locations instead of those intercalated in van der waals gaps are most likely to be responsible for the emergence of superconductivity in srdoped bi2se3

On localizing and concentrating electromagnetic fields
We consider field localizing and concentration of electromagnetic waves governed by the time-harmonic anisotropic Maxwell system in a bounded domain. It is shown that there always exist certain boundary inputs which can generate electromagnetic fields with energy localized/concentrated in a given subdomain while nearly vanishing in another given subdomain. The theoretical results may have potential applications in telecommunication, inductive charging and medical therapy. We also derive a related Runge approximation result for the time-harmonic anisotropic Maxwell system with partial boundary data.

Nearly orthogonal vectors and small antipodal spherical codes
How can $d+k$ vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$ be arranged so that they are as close to orthogonal as possible? In particular, define $\theta(d,k):=\min_X\max_{x\neq y\in X}|\langle x,y\rangle|$ where the minimum is taken over all collections of $d+k$ unit vectors $X\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$. In this paper, we focus on the case where $k$ is fixed and $d\to\infty$. In establishing bounds on $\theta(d,k)$, we find an intimate connection to the existence of systems of ${k+1\choose 2}$ equiangular lines in $\mathbb{R}^k$. Using this connection, we are able to pin down $\theta(d,k)$ whenever $k\in\{1,2,3,7,23\}$ and establish asymptotics for general $k$. The main tool is an upper bound on $\mathbb{E}_{x,y\sim\mu}|\langle x,y\rangle|$ whenever $\mu$ is an isotropic probability mass on $\mathbb{R}^k$, which may be of independent interest. Our results translate naturally to the analogous question in $\mathbb{C}^d$. In this case, the question relates to the existence of systems of $k^2$ equiangular lines in $\mathbb{C}^k$, also known as SIC-POVM in physics literature.

M-ary Orthogonal Chirp Modulation for Coherent and Non-coherent Underwater Acoustic Communications
We propose an orthogonal chirp waveform design for underwater acoustic (UW-A) communications and analyze the cross-correlation characteristics of orthogonal chirp waveforms in coherent and non-coherent detections. We consider information symbols are carried over proposed M-ary orthogonal chirp waveforms for UW-A transmissions. Moreover, we develop a coherent and an optimal non-coherent receivers based on proposed chirp waveforms. Explicit derivations include closed-form expressions for cross-correlation coefficients, and theoretical bit-error-rate (BER) of coherent and non-coherent receivers. Performance of M-ary orthogonal chirp waveforms is evaluated in water tank experiments. Therefore, we have demonstrated the effectiveness of proposed M-ary orthogonal chirp modulation in UW-A multipath fading channel.

A single-source molten salt synthesis of uniform octahedral Na2Ti3O7 particels composed of nanorods
Na2Ti3O7, as one of the most potential anode electrode materials, is expected to play an important role in various fields. In this work, we synthesized uniform hollow octahedral Na2Ti3O7 particles through directly sintering a kind of precursors obtained by (NH4)2TiF6 and NH4OH in the presence of sodium-containing cationic polyacrylamide. XRD, SEM, TEM were used to characterize precursors and Na2Ti3O7 particles. In addition, the synthesis conditions and the formation mechanism were discussed in detail. This single-source molten salt method is flexible, efficient and controllable. Moreover, the strategy of this method makes it possible for us to synthesize other sodium titanate materials.

Touch Your Heart: A Tone-aware Chatbot for Customer Care on Social Media
Chatbot has become an important solution to rapidly increasing customer care demands on social media in recent years. However, current work on chatbot for customer care ignores a key to impact user experience - tones. In this work, we create a novel tone-aware chatbot that generates toned responses to user requests on social media. We first conduct a formative research, in which the effects of tones are studied. Significant and various influences of different tones on user experience are uncovered in the study. With the knowledge of effects of tones, we design a deep learning based chatbot that takes tone information into account. We train our system on over 1.5 million real customer care conversations collected from Twitter. The evaluation reveals that our tone-aware chatbot generates as appropriate responses to user requests as human agents. More importantly, our chatbot is perceived to be even more empathetic than human agents.

Modeling Three-dimensional Invasive Solid Tumor Growth in Heterogeneous Microenvironment under Chemotherapy
A systematic understanding of the evolution and growth dynamics of invasive solid tumors in response to different chemotherapy strategies is crucial for the development of individually optimized oncotherapy. Here, we develop a hybrid three-dimensional (3D) computational model that integrates pharmacokinetic model, continuum diffusion-reaction model and discrete cell automaton model to investigate 3D invasive solid tumor growth in heterogeneous microenvironment under chemotherapy. Specifically, we consider the effects of heterogeneous environment on drug diffusion, tumor growth, invasion and the drug-tumor interaction on individual cell level. We employ the hybrid model to investigate the evolution and growth dynamics of avascular invasive solid tumors under different chemotherapy strategies. Our simulations reproduce the well-established observation that constant dosing is generally more effective in suppressing primary tumor growth than periodic dosing, due to the resulting continuous high drug concentration. In highly heterogeneous microenvironment, the malignancy of the tumor is significantly enhanced, leading to inefficiency of chemotherapies. The effects of geometrically-confined microenvironment and non-uniform drug dosing are also investigated. Our computational model, when supplemented with sufficient clinical data, could eventually lead to the development of efficient in silico tools for prognosis and treatment strategy optimization.

Numerical realization of the variational method for generating self-trapped beams
We introduce a numerical variational method based on the Rayleigh-Ritz optimization principle for predicting two-dimensional self-trapped beams in nonlinear media. This technique overcomes the limitation of the traditional variational approximation in performing analytical Lagrangian integration and differentiation. Approximate soliton solutions of a generalized nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation are obtained, demonstrating robustness of the beams of various types (fundamental, vortices, multipoles, azimuthons) in the course of their propagation. The algorithm offers possibilities to produce more sophisticated soliton profiles in general nonlinear models.

Strong Convex Nonlinear Relaxations of the Pooling Problem
We investigate new convex relaxations for the pooling problem, a classic nonconvex production planning problem in which input materials are mixed in intermediate pools, with the outputs of these pools further mixed to make output products meeting given attribute percentage requirements. Our relaxations are derived by considering a set which arises from the formulation by considering a single product, a single attibute, and a single pool. The convex hull of the resulting nonconvex set is not polyhedral. We derive valid linear and convex nonlinear inequalities for the convex hull, and demonstrate that different subsets of these inequalities define the convex hull of the nonconvex set in three cases determined by the parameters of the set. Computational results on literature instances and newly created larger test instances demonstrate that the inequalities can significantly strengthen the convex relaxation of the pq-formulation of the pooling problem, which is the relaxation known to have the strongest bound.

The degree of irrationality of hypersurfaces in various Fano varieties
The purpose of this paper is to compute the degree of irrationality of hypersurfaces of sufficiently high degree in various Fano varieties: quadrics, Grassmannians, products of projective space, cubic threefolds, cubic fourfolds, and complete intersection threefolds of type (2,2). This extends the techniques of Bastianelli, De Poi, Ein, Lazarsfeld, and the second author who computed the degree of irrationality of hypersurfaces of sufficiently high degree in projective space. A theme in the paper is that the fibers of low degree rational maps from the hypersurfaces to projective space tend to lie on curves of low degree contained in the Fano varieties. This allows us to study these maps by studying the geometry of curves in these Fano varieties.

Three-body Faddeev equations in two-particle Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas form with Distorted-Wave-Born-approximation amplitudes as effective potentials
In this paper, I prove that the sub-Coulomb $A(d,p)B$ reaction amplitude, which is a solution of the three-body Faddeev equations in the Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas (AGS) form, is peripheral if a peripheral is the corresponding DWBA amplitude. Hence the Faddeev's reaction amplitude for the sub-Coulomb $A(d,p)B$ reactions can also be parametrized in terms of the ANC of the $(n\,A)$ bound state. First, I consider the original AGS equations with separable potentials and prove that such equations are peripheral at sub-Coulomb energies. After that, the two-particle AGS equations are derived for the general potentials for sub-Coulomb transfer reactions. The effective AGS potentials are expressed in terms of the DWBA amplitudes for the sub-Coulomb reactions. Again, I demonstrate that the amplitude of the $A(d,p)B$ transfer reaction obtained from the AGS equation is peripheral and can be parametrized in terms of the ANC for the $(nA)$ bound state because the corresponding DWBA amplitude is peripheral. Finally, the AGS equations are generalized by including the optical nuclear potentials in the same manner as it is done in the DWBA. The obtained two-particle AGS equations contain the DWBA effective potentials with distorted waves generated by the sum of the nuclear optical and the channel Coulomb potentials. The AGS equation for the $A(d,p)B$ reactions is analyzed above the Coulomb barrier and it is shown again that the reaction amplitude satisfying generalized AGS equation with optical potentials depends on the ANC if a peripheral is the DWBA amplitude. The two-body AGS equations are generalized by including the intermediate three-body continuum and more than one bound state in each channel.

in this paper i prove that the subcoulomb adpb reaction amplitude which is a solution of the threebody faddeev equations in the altgrassbergersandhas ags form is peripheral if a peripheral is the corresponding dwba amplitude hence the faddeevs reaction amplitude for the subcoulomb adpb reactions can also be parametrized in terms of the anc of the na bound state first i consider the original ags equations with separable potentials and prove that such equations are peripheral at subcoulomb energies after that the twoparticle ags equations are derived for the general potentials for subcoulomb transfer reactions the effective ags potentials are expressed in terms of the dwba amplitudes for the subcoulomb reactions again i demonstrate that the amplitude of the adpb transfer reaction obtained from the ags equation is peripheral and can be parametrized in terms of the anc for the na bound state because the corresponding dwba amplitude is peripheral finally the ags equations are generalized by including the optical nuclear potentials in the same manner as it is done in the dwba the obtained twoparticle ags equations contain the dwba effective potentials with distorted waves generated by the sum of the nuclear optical and the channel coulomb potentials the ags equation for the adpb reactions is analyzed above the coulomb barrier and it is shown again that the reaction amplitude satisfying generalized ags equation with optical potentials depends on the anc if a peripheral is the dwba amplitude the twobody ags equations are generalized by including the intermediate threebody continuum and more than one bound state in each channel

Topological and magnetic phase transition in silicene-like zigzag nanoribbons
Spin-orbital interactions (SOI) in silicene results in the quantum spin Hall effect, while the Hubbard-induced Coulomb interaction in zigzag nanoribbons often generates a band gap with the anti-ferromagnetic (AF) spin orders on two edges. In this paper we systematically study these two joint contributions to the zigzag silicene-like nanoribbons (zSiNR). Some topological and magnetic phase transitions are investigated with different material parameters and external fields. We find when the ribbon width or the SOI value exceeds some critical value, the SOI may overcome the Coulomb interaction and the system transits from a band insulator to a topological insulator: the quantum-spin-Hall or the spin quantum-anomalous Hall state. We also find some magnetic phase transition exist in the Hubbard-dominated zSiNR systems when the exchange field or the electric field goes beyond some critical values. At last we observe a double topological/magnetic phase transition in a Hubbard-SOI-balanced zSiNR system before the magnetic and topological phases are destroyed by a strong electric field.

Rigorous numerical computations for 1D advection equations with variable coefficients
This paper provides a methodology of verified computing for solutions to 1-dimensional advection equations with variable coefficients. The advection equation is typical partial differential equations (PDEs) of hyperbolic type. There are few results of verified numerical computations to initial-boundary value problems of hyperbolic PDEs. Our methodology is based on the spectral method and semigroup theory. The provided method in this paper is regarded as an efficient application of semigroup theory in a sequence space associated with the Fourier series of unknown functions. This is a foundational approach of verified numerical computations for hyperbolic PDEs. Numerical examples show that the rigorous error estimate showing the well-posedness of the exact solution is given with high accuracy and high speed.

Influence Maximization for Fixed Heterogeneous Thresholds
Influence Maximization is a NP-hard problem of selecting the optimal set of influencers in a network. Here, we propose two new approaches to influence maximization based on two very different metrics. The first metric, termed Balanced Index (BI), is fast to compute and assigns top values to two kinds of nodes: those with high resistance to adoption, and those with large out-degree. This is done by linearly combining three properties of a node: its degree, susceptibility to new opinions, and the impact its activation will have on its neighborhood. Controlling the weights between those three terms has a huge impact on performance. The second metric, termed Group Performance Index (GPI), measures performance of each node as an initiator when it is a part of randomly selected initiator set. In each such selection, the score assigned to each teammate is inversely proportional to the number of initiators causing the desired spread. These two metrics are applicable to various cascade models; here we test them on the Linear Threshold Model with fixed and known thresholds. Furthermore, we study the impact of network degree assortativity and threshold distribution on the cascade size for metrics including ours. The results demonstrate our two metrics deliver strong performance for influence maximization.

Does the time horizon of the return predictive effect of investor sentiment vary with stock characteristics? A Granger causality analysis in the frequency domain
Behavioral theories posit that investor sentiment exhibits predictive power for stock returns, whereas there is little study have investigated the relationship between the time horizon of the predictive effect of investor sentiment and the firm characteristics. To this end, by using a Granger causality analysis in the frequency domain proposed by Lemmens et al. (2008), this paper examine whether the time horizon of the predictive effect of investor sentiment on the U.S. returns of stocks vary with different firm characteristics (e.g., firm size (Size), book-to-market equity (B/M) rate, operating profitability (OP) and investment (Inv)). The empirical results indicate that investor sentiment has a long-term (more than 12 months) or short-term (less than 12 months) predictive effect on stock returns with different firm characteristics. Specifically, the investor sentiment has strong predictability in the stock returns for smaller Size stocks, lower B/M stocks and lower OP stocks, both in the short term and long term, but only has a short-term predictability for higher quantile ones. The investor sentiment merely has predictability for the returns of smaller Inv stocks in the short term, but has a strong short-term and long-term predictability for larger Inv stocks. These results have important implications for the investors for the planning of the short and the long run stock investment strategy.

Role of La doping for Topological Hall Effect in Epitaxial EuO Films
We report the critical role of La doping in the topological Hall effect observed in LaxEu1-xO thin films (~ 50 nm) grown by molecular beam epitaxy. When the La doping exceeds 0.036, topological Hall effect emerges, which we attribute to the formation of magnetic skyrmions. Besides, the La doping is found to play a critical role in determining the phases, densities, and sizes of the skyrmions in the LaxEu1-xO thin films. The maximum region of the skyrmion phase diagram is observed on the La0.1Eu0.9O thin film. As the La doping increases, the skyrmion density increases while the skyrmion size decreases. Our findings demonstrate the important role of La doping for the skyrmions in EuO films, which could be important for future studies of magnetic skyrmions in Heisenberg ferromagnets.

Persistent spin texture enforced by symmetry
Persistent spin texture (PST) is the property of some materials to maintain a uniform spin configuration in the momentum space. This property has been predicted to support an extraordinarily long spin lifetime of carriers promising for spintronics applications. The PST is known to emerge when the strengths of two dominant spin-orbit couplings, the Rashba and linear Dresselhaus, are equal. This condition, however, is not trivial to achieve and requires tuning the Rashba and Dresselhaus parameters, as has been demonstrated with semiconductor quantum-well structures. Here we predict that there exist a class of non-centrosymmetric bulk materials where the PST is enforced by the non-symmorphic space group symmetry of the crystal. Around certain high symmetry points in the Brillouin zone, the sublattice degrees of freedom impose a constraint on the effective spin-orbit field, which remains independent of the momentum orientation and thus maintains the PST. We illustrate this behavior using density-functional theory calculations for a handful of promising candidates accessible experimentally. Among them is the ferroelectric oxide BiInO3-a wide band gap semiconductor which sustains a PST around the conduction band minimum. Our results broaden the range of materials, which can be employed in spintronics.

A Multi-Objective Deep Reinforcement Learning Framework
This paper introduces a new scalable multi-objective deep reinforcement learning (MODRL) framework based on deep Q-networks. We develop a high-performance MODRL framework that supports both single-policy and multi-policy strategies, as well as both linear and non-linear approaches to action selection. The experimental results on two benchmark problems (two-objective deep sea treasure environment and three-objective Mountain Car problem) indicate that the proposed framework is able to find the Pareto-optimal solutions effectively. The proposed framework is generic and highly modularized, which allows the integration of different deep reinforcement learning algorithms in different complex problem domains. This therefore overcomes many disadvantages involved with standard multi-objective reinforcement learning methods in the current literature. The proposed framework acts as a testbed platform that accelerates the development of MODRL for solving increasingly complicated multi-objective problems.
