Demonstration of an ac Josephson junction laser | Superconducting electronic devices have re-emerged as contenders for both
classical and quantum computing due to their fast operation speeds, low
dissipation and long coherence times. An ultimate demonstration of coherence is
lasing. We use one of the fundamental aspects of superconductivity, the ac
Josephson effect,... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Integrable systems, symmetries and quantization | These notes correspond to a mini-course given at the Poisson 2016 conference
in Geneva. Starting from classical integrable systems in the sense of
Liouville, we explore the notion of non-degenerate singularity and expose
recent research in connection with semi-toric systems. The quantum and
semiclassical counterpart ... | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Detecting Friedel oscillations in ultracold Fermi gases | Investigating Friedel oscillations in ultracold gases would complement the
studies performed on solid state samples with scanning-tunneling microscopes.
In atomic quantum gases interactions and external potentials can be tuned

dynamics followin... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Learning Proximal Operators: Using Denoising Networks for Regularizing Inverse Imaging Problems | While variational methods have been among the most powerful tools for solving
linear inverse problems in imaging, deep (convolutional) neural networks have
recently taken the lead in many challenging benchmarks. A remaining drawback of
deep learning approaches is their requirement for an expensive retraining

Heated-Up Softmax Embedding | Metric learning aims at learning a distance which is consistent with the
semantic meaning of the samples. The problem is generally solved by learning an
embedding for each sample such that the embeddings of samples of the same
category are compact while the embeddings of samples of different categories
are spread-out... | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
Fast Matrix Inversion and Determinant Computation for Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar | This paper introduces a fast algorithm for simultaneous inversion and

The imprint of neutrinos on clustering in redshift-space | (abridged) We investigate the signatures left by the cosmic neutrino
background on the clustering of matter, CDM+baryons and halos in redshift-space
using a set of more than 1000 N-body and hydrodynamical simulations with
massless and massive neutrinos. We find that the effect neutrinos induce on the

Quantum Privacy-Preserving Data Analytics | Data analytics (such as association rule mining and decision tree mining) can
discover useful statistical knowledge from a big data set. But protecting the
privacy of the data provider and the data user in the process of analytics is a
serious issue. Usually, the privacy of both parties cannot be fully protected

Magnetic Properties of Transition-Metal Adsorbed ot-Phosphorus Monolayer: A First-principles and Monte Carlo Study | Using the first-principles and Monte Carlo methods, here we systematically
study magnetic properties of monolayer octagonal-tetragonal phosphorus with 3d
transition-metal (TM) adatoms. Different from the puckered hexagonal black
phosphorus monolayer (phosphorene or $\alpha$-P), the octagonal-tetragonal
phase of 2D ph... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
A bootstrap for the number of $\mathbb{F}_{q^r}$-rational points on a curve over $\mathbb{F}_q$ | In this note we present a fast algorithm that finds for any $r$ the number
$N_r$ of $\mathbb{F}_{q^r}$ rational points on a smooth absolutely irreducible
curve $C$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ assuming that we know $N_1,\cdots,N_g$,
where $g$ is the genus of $C$. The proof of its validity is given in detail and

Doping anatase TiO2 with group V-b and VI-b transition metal atoms: a hybrid functional first-principles study | We investigate the role of transition metal atoms of group V-b (V, Nb, and
Ta) and VI-b (Cr, Mo, and W) as n- or p-type dopants in anatase TiO2 using
thermodynamic principles and density functional theory with the
Heyd-Scuseria-Ernzerhof HSE06 hybrid functional. The HSE06 functional provides

Patch-planting spin-glass solution for benchmarking | We introduce an algorithm to generate (not solve) spin-glass instances with
planted solutions of arbitrary size and structure. First, a set of small

heuristic, and then the individual patches are stitched together to create a
large problem with a... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Evidence for the formation of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko through gravitational collapse of a bound clump of pebbles | The processes that led to the formation of the planetary bodies in the Solar
System are still not fully understood. Using the results obtained with the
comprehensive suite of instruments on-board ESA's Rosetta mission, we present
evidence that comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko likely formed through the gentle

Detection of virial shocks in stacked Fermi-LAT clusters | Galaxy clusters are thought to grow by accreting mass through large-scale,
strong, yet elusive, virial shocks. Such a shock is expected to accelerate
relativistic electrons, thus generating a spectrally-flat leptonic virial-ring.
However, until now, only the nearby Coma cluster has shown evidence for a
$\gamma$-ray v... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Closed-form formulae of hyperbolic metamaterial made by stacked hole-array layers working at terahertz or microwave radiation | A metamaterial made by stacked hole-array layers known as a fishnet

parameters of a fishnet metamaterial have not been reported hindering the
design of deep-subwavelength i... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
RMPflow: A Computational Graph for Automatic Motion Policy Generation | We develop a novel policy synthesis algorithm, RMPflow, based on

spaces. Given a set of RMPs... | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Long-range correlations and fractal dynamics in C. elegans: changes with aging and stress | Reduced motor control is one of the most frequent features associated with

A Computational Approach to Extinction Events in Chemical Reaction Networks with Discrete State Spaces | Recent work of M.D. Johnston et al. has produced sufficient conditions on the

increasing obesity rates are linked to ever raising healthcare costs. For these
