Homological indices of collections of 1-forms | Homological index of a holomorphic 1-form on a complex analytic variety with
an isolated singular point is an analogue of the usual index of a 1-form on a
non-singular manifold. One can say that it corresponds to the top Chern number
of a manifold. We offer a definition of homological indices for collections of

An age-structured continuum model for myxobacteria | Myxobacteria are social bacteria, that can glide in 2D and form
counter-propagating, interacting waves. Here we present a novel age-structured,
continuous macroscopic model for the movement of myxobacteria. The derivation
is based on microscopic interaction rules that can be formulated as a
particle-based model and s... | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Smoothing Properties of Bilinear Operators and Leibniz-Type Rules in Lebesgue and Mixed Lebesgue Spaces | We prove that bilinear fractional integral operators and similar multipliers
are smoothing in the sense that they improve the regularity of functions. We
also treat bilinear singular multiplier operators which preserve regularity and
obtain several Leibniz-type rules in the contexts of Lebesgue and mixed
Lebesgue spa... | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Local equilibrium in the Bak-Sneppen model | The Bak Sneppen (BS) model is a very simple model that exhibits all the
richness of self-organized criticality theory. At the thermodynamic limit, the
BS model converges to a situation where all particles have a fitness that is
uniformly distributed between a critical value $p_c$ and 1. The $p_c$ value is
unknown, as... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Ribbon structures of the Drinfeld center of a finite tensor category | We classify the ribbon structures of the Drinfeld center
$\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C})$ of a finite tensor category $\mathcal{C}$. Our
result generalizes Kauffman and Radford's classification result of the ribbon
elements of the Drinfeld double of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra. As a
consequence, we see that $\mathcal... | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
X-ray luminescence computed tomography using a focused X-ray beam | Due to the low X-ray photon utilization efficiency and low measurement
sensitivity of the electron multiplying charge coupled device (EMCCD) camera
setup, the collimator based narrow beam X-ray luminescence computed tomography
(XLCT) usually requires a long measurement time. In this paper, we, for the

Perturbed Kitaev model: excitation spectrum and long-ranged spin correlations | We developed general approach to the calculation of power-law infrared
asymptotics of spin-spin correlation functions in the Kitaev honeycomb model
with different types of perturbations. We have shown that in order to find
these correlation functions, one can perform averaging of some bilinear forms
composed out of f... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
FreezeOut: Accelerate Training by Progressively Freezing Layers | The early layers of a deep neural net have the fewest parameters, but take up
the most computation. In this extended abstract, we propose to only train the
hidden layers for a set portion of the training run, freezing them out
one-by-one and excluding them from the backward pass. Through experiments on
CIFAR, we empi... | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
Stochastic Subsampling for Factorizing Huge Matrices | We present a matrix-factorization algorithm that scales to input matrices
with both huge number of rows and columns. Learned factors may be sparse or
dense and/or non-negative, which makes our algorithm suitable for dictionary
learning, sparse component analysis, and non-negative matrix factorization. Our
algorithm s... | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 |

Scaling, Scattering, and Blackbody Radiation in Classical Physics | Here we discuss blackbody radiation within the context of classical theory.
We note that nonrelativistic classical mechanics and relativistic classical
electrodynamics have contrasting scaling symmetries which influence the
scattering of radiation. Also, nonrelativistic mechanical systems can be
accurately combined w... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Critical binomial ideals of Norhtcott type | In this paper, we study a family of binomial ideals defining monomial curves
in the $n-$dimensional affine space determined by $n$ hypersurfaces of the form
$x_i^{c_i} - x_1^{u_{i1}} \cdots x_n^{u_{1n}} \in k[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ with
$u_{ii} = 0$, $i\in \{ 1, \ldots, n\}$. We prove that, the monomial curves in

Clustering of Magnetic Swimmers in a Poiseuille Flow | We investigate the collective behavior of magnetic swimmers, which are
suspended in a Poiseuille flow and placed under an external magnetic field,

A Time-Spectral Method for Initial-Value Problems Using a Novel Spatial Subdomain Scheme | We analyse a new subdomain scheme for a time-spectral method for solving

spatially dependent systems, finite difference schemes are typically applied
for the temporal domain. The Generalized Weighted Residual Method (GWRM) is a

Stein Variational Adaptive Importance Sampling | We propose a novel adaptive importance sampling algorithm which incorporates

Closure operators on dcpos | We examine collective properties of closure operators on posets that are at
least dcpos. The first theorem sets the tone of the paper: it tells how a set
of preclosure maps on a dcpo determines the least closure operator above them,
and pronounces the related induction principle, and its companion, the obverse

Multi-Agent Coverage Control with Energy Depletion and Repletion | We develop a hybrid system model to describe the behavior of multiple agents
cooperatively solving an optimal coverage problem under energy depletion and

Self-injective commutative rings have no nontrivial rigid ideals | We establish a link between trace modules and rigidity in modules over
Noetherian rings. Using the theory of trace ideals we make partial progress on
a question of Dao, and on the Auslander-Reiten conjecture over Artinian
Gorenstein rings.

Origin of the Drude peak and of zero sound in probe brane holography | At zero temperature, the charge current operator appears to be conserved,
within linear response, in certain holographic probe brane models of strange
metals. At small but finite temperature, we analytically show that the weak
non-conservation of this current leads to both a collective "zero sound" mode
and a Drude p... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Multiscale dynamical network mechanisms underlying aging from birth to death | How self-organized networks develop, mature and degenerate is a key question

Theoretical calculations for precision polarimetry based on Mott scattering | Electron polarimeters based on Mott scattering are extensively used in
