英文摘要

Trilinos is a community-developed, open-source software framework that facilitates building large-scale, complex, multiscale, multiphysics simulation code bases for scientific and engineering problems. Since the Trilinos framework has undergone substantial changes to support new applications and new hardware architectures, this document is an update to ``An Overview of the Trilinos project'' by Heroux et al. (ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, 31(3):397-423, 2005). It describes the design of Trilinos, introduces its new organization in product areas, and highlights established and new features available in Trilinos. Particular focus is put on the modernized software stack based on the Kokkos ecosystem to deliver performance portability across heterogeneous hardware architectures. This paper also outlines the organization of the Trilinos community and the contribution model to help onboard interested users and contributors.

Deterministically approximating the volume of a Kostka polytope

英文摘要

Polynomial-time deterministic approximation of volumes of polytopes, up to an approximation factor that grows at most sub-exponentially with the dimension, remains an open problem. Recent work on this question has focused on identifying interesting classes of polytopes for which such approximation algorithms can be obtained. In this paper, we focus on one such class of polytopes: the Kostka polytopes. The volumes of Kostka polytopes appear naturally in questions of random matrix theory, in the context of evaluating the probability density that a random Hermitian matrix with fixed spectrum $λ$ has a given diagonal $μ$ (the so-called randomized Schur-Horn problem): the corresponding Kostka polytope is denoted $\mathrm{GT}(λ, μ)$. We give a polynomial-time deterministic algorithm for approximating the volume of a ($Ω(n^2)$ dimensional) Kostka polytope $\mathrm{GT}(λ, μ)$ to within a multiplicative factor of $\exp(O(n\log n))$, when $λ$ is an integral partition with $n$ parts, with entries bounded above by a polynomial in $n$, and $μ$ is an integer vector lying in the interior of the permutohedron (i.e., convex hull of all permutations) of $λ$. The algorithm thus gives asymptotically correct estimates of the log-volume of Kostka polytopes corresponding to such $(λ, μ)$. Our approach is based on a partition function interpretation of a continuous analogue of Schur polynomials.

英文摘要

The rapid evolution and global impact of coronaviruses, notably SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2, underscore the importance of understanding their molecular mechanisms in detail. This study focuses on the receptor-binding motif (RBM) within the Spike protein of these viruses, a critical element for viral entry through interaction with the ACE2 receptor. We investigate the sequence variations in the RBM across SARS-CoV-1, SARS-CoV-2 and its early variants of concern (VOCs). Utilizing multicanonical simulations and microcanonical analysis, we examine how these variations influence the folding dynamics, thermostability, and solubility of the RBMs. Our methodology includes calculating the density of states (DoS) to identify structural phase transitions and assess thermodynamic properties. Furthermore, we solve the Poisson-Boltzmann equation to model the solubility of the RBMs in aqueous environments. This methodology is expected to elucidate structural and functional differences in viral evolution and pathogenicity, likely improving targeted treatments and vaccines.

英文摘要

Recently, there has been interest in representing single graphs by multiple drawings; for example, using graph stories, storyplans, or uncrossed collections. In this paper, we apply this idea to orthogonal graph drawing. Due to the orthogonal drawing style, we focus on 4-graphs, that is, graphs of maximum degree 4. We restrict ourselves to plane graphs, that is, planar graphs whose embedding is fixed. Our goal is to represent any plane 4-graph $G$ by an unbent collection, that is, a collection of orthogonal drawings of $G$ that adhere to the embedding of $G$ and ensure that each edge of $G$ is drawn without bends in at least one of the drawings. We investigate two objectives. First, we consider minimizing the number of drawings in an unbent collection. We prove that every plane 4-graph can be represented by a collection with at most three drawings, which is tight. We also give necessary and sufficient conditions for a graph to admit an unbent collection of size $2$. Second, we consider minimizing the total number of bends over all drawings in an unbent collection. We show that this problem is NP-hard and give a 3-approximation algorithm. For the special case of plane triconnected cubic graphs, we show how to compute minimum-bend collections in linear time.

Analog Quantum Teleportation

Uesli Alushi, Simone Felicetti, Roberto Di Candia

Comments Duplicate submission with arXiv:2603.11941

详情
英文摘要

Digital teleportation protocols make use of entanglement, local measurements and a classical communication channel to transfer quantum states between remote parties. We consider analog teleportation protocols, where classical communication is replaced by transmission through a noisy quantum channel. We show that analog teleportation protocols outperform digital protocols if and only if Alice and Bob are linked by a channel that does not reduce entanglement when applied to a part of the resource state. We first derive general analytical results in the broader context of Gaussian-channel simulation. Then, we apply it to the quantum teleportation of a uniformly distributed codebook of coherent states, showing that an analog protocol is optimal for a wide range of communication channel transmissivities. Our result contributes to mitigating noise in the intermediate case when the communication channel is far from being ideal but is not too lossy, as is the case of cryogenic links in microwave superconducting circuits.

Enhancing Citizen-Government Communication with AI: Evaluating the Impact of AI-Assisted Interactions on Communication Quality and Satisfaction

Ruiyu Zhang, Lin Nie

Comments 31 pages, 5 figures. Information Polity, 2026. Published version titled, Enhancing Communication Quality between Government and Citizens: The Role of AI Modification

详情
英文摘要

This study integrates critical AI scholarship with relational communication theories to explain how AI language modifications shape the quality of government-citizen communication. Distinguishing between informational-cognitive quality (clarity, ease of response) and expressive-constitutive quality (politeness, respectfulness, feeling heard, trust, urgency, empathy), we hypothesize that AI yields uncontested benefits for the former but contested effects for the latter, potentially enhancing relational markers while muting authentic emotional cues. Using a vignette-based survey with 220 citizens and 214 civil servants in China, we assess perceptions across five interaction contexts: service requests, policy inquiries, complaints, suggestions, and emergencies. Results from paired t-tests and mixed-effects regressions support the claim that AI enhances both informational-cognitive and expressive-constitutive quality from the perspectives of citizens and civil servants, with significant improvements in clarity, politeness, satisfaction, trust, and empathy, but provide no consistent evidence of urgency or empathy signals. These findings suggest that concerns over algorithmic emotional flattening may be overstated or context-specific; they offer theoretical insights into AI-mediated public interactions and practical implications for fostering trust and efficiency in digital governance.

Cyclic covers of an algebraic curve from an adelic viewpoint

Luis Manuel Navas Vicente, Francisco J. Plaza Martin

Comments to appear in "CUBO, A Mathematical Journal", Vol. 28, No. 2 (2026)

详情
英文摘要

We propose an algebraic method for the classification of branched Galois covers of a curve $X$ focused on studying Galois ring extensions of its geometric adele ring $\A_{X}$. As an application, we deal with cyclic covers; namely, we determine when a given cyclic ring extension of $\A_{X}$ comes from a corresponding cover of curves $Y \to X$, which is reminiscent of a Grunwald-Wang problem, and also determine when two covers yield isomorphic ring extensions, which is known in the literature as an equivalence problem. This completely algebraic method permits us to recover ramification, certain analytic data such as rotation numbers, and enumeration formulas for covers.

英文摘要

In this work, we theoretically investigate strong gravitational lensing effects and evaluate various lensing observables of a static, spherically symmetric solution in the context of effective quantum gravity (EQG). Among the three types of solutions proposed in EQG backgrounds, this is the third type without having Cauchy horizons. This solution gives rise to black hole as well as horizonless wormhole solutions depending on the range of values of the parameters of the theory. Based on the data from SgrA* and M87* observations, possible bounds on the parameter are obtained. It is found that the horizonless wormhole solution is ruled out by SgrA* observations, but is allowed by M87* observations. We analyze and provide estimates of the lensing observables, some of which can potentially be detected by observational tools.

Routing-based technique for defect mitigation in quantum error correction

英文摘要

As quantum chips scale up for large-scale computation, hardware defects become inevitable and must be carefully addressed. In this work, we introduce Halma, a defect mitigation technique empowered by an expanded native gate set that incorporates the iSWAP gate alongside the conventional CNOT gate. Halma emerges as a supplementary technique within the defect mitigation toolbox, offering effective mitigation of ancilla qubit defects encountered during surface code stabilizer measurements while maintaining compatibility with existing superstabilizer-based methodologies. Halma introduces zero reduction in the spacelike distance of the code without further sacrifice to the timelike distance. Numerical simulation suggests that in comparison to previous methods, Halma could provide an order of magnitude improvement in the average logical error rate under realistic experimental settings, leading to a $\sim3\times$ reduction in the footprint of a teraquop. These results clearly demonstrate the capability of Halma in easing the near-term realization of fault-tolerant quantum computing on hardware with fabrication defects, and exemplifies how leveraging intrinsic hardware capabilities can enhance quantum hardware performance.

Modular operads, iterated distributive laws and a nerve theorem for circuit algebras

英文摘要

Circuit algebras are a symmetric version of Jones's planar algebras. They originated in quantum topology as a framework for encoding virtual crossings. This paper extends existing results for modular operads to construct a graphical calculus and monad for general circuit algebras and prove an abstract nerve theorem. The proof relies on a subtle interplay between distributive laws and abstract nerve theory, and provides extra insights into the underlying structures. Oriented circuit algebras are equivalent to wheeled props and specialisations of the results to wheeled props follow as straightforward corollaries.

英文摘要

Position exchange of non-Abelian anyons affects the quantum state of their system in a topologically-protected way. Their expected manifestations in even-denominator fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems offer the opportunity to directly study their unique statistical properties in interference experiments. In this work, we present the observation of coherent Aharonov-Bohm interference at two even-denominator states in high-mobility bilayer graphene-based van der Waals heterostructures by employing the Fabry-Pérot interferometry (FPI) technique. Operating the interferometer at a constant filling factor, we observe an oscillation period corresponding to two flux quanta inside the interference loop, $ΔΦ=2Φ_0$, at which the interference does not carry signatures of non-Abelian statistics. The absence of the expected periodicity of $ΔΦ=4Φ_0$ may indicate that the interfering quasiparticles carry the charge $e^* = \frac{1}{2}e$ or that interference of $e^* = \frac{1}{4}e$ quasiparticles is thermally smeared. Interestingly, at two hole-conjugate states, we also observe oscillation periods of half the expected value, indicating interference of $e^* = \frac{2}{3}e$ quasiparticles instead of $e^* = \frac{1}{3}e$. To probe statistical phase contributions, we operated the FPI with controlled deviations of the filling factor, thereby introducing fractional quasiparticles inside the interference loop. The resulting changes to the interference patterns at both half-filled states indicate that the additional bulk quasiparticles carry the fundamental charge $e^*=\frac{1}{4}e$, as expected for non-Abelian anyons.

英文摘要

The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics fails to explain the observed hierarchy in fermion masses or the origin of fermion-flavor structure. We construct a model to explain these observations in the quark sector. We introduce a spectrum of new particles consisting of six of each -- massive singlet vector-like quarks (VLQs), singlet scalars, and SU(2)-doublet scalars. SM quark masses are generated when the neutral components of the SU(2)-doublet scalars acquire non-zero vacuum expectation values (VEVs). We impose global symmetries to ensure that Yukawa couplings stay roughly flavor diagonal and democratic (of the same order), as well as to suppress tree-level flavor-changing neutral currents. Quark-mass hierarchy then follows from a hierarchy in scalar VEVs. The singlet scalars also acquire weak-scale VEVs. Together with the VLQs, they act as messengers between different generations of quarks in the SM. These messenger particles are responsible for generating the elements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Masakawa (CKM) matrix which depend on the ratios of the singlet VEVs and VLQ masses. Constructed this way, the CKM matrix is found to be \emph{independent} of the SM fermion masses. Using the measured values of the CKM matrix elements and assuming order-one couplings, we derive constraints on the masses of the VLQs and discuss prospects for probing our model in the near future.

Quantum simulation of Burgers turbulence: Nonlinear transformation and direct evaluation of statistical quantities

Comments 11 pages

英文摘要

Fault-tolerant quantum computing is a promising technology to solve linear partial differential equations that are classically demanding to integrate. It is still challenging to solve non-linear equations in fluid dynamics, such as the Burgers equation, using quantum computers. We propose a novel quantum algorithm to solve the Burgers equation. With the Cole-Hopf transformation that maps the fluid velocity field $u$ to a new field $ψ$, we apply a sequence of quantum gates to solve the resulting linear equation and obtain the quantum state $\vertψ\rangle$ that encodes the solution $ψ$. We also propose an efficient way to extract stochastic properties of $u$, namely the multi-point functions of $u$, from the quantum state of $\vertψ\rangle$. Our algorithm offers an exponential advantage over the classical finite difference method in terms of the number of spatial grids when a perturbativity condition in the information-extracting step is met.

Environment engineering to protect quantum coherence in tripartite systems under dephasing noise

英文摘要

The practical success of quantum technology hinges on sustaining quantum coherence, which is vulnerable to environmental interactions causing decoherence. We investigate coherence in tripartite quantum systems under the influence of noisy environment. In this study, we explore the dynamics of the relative entropy of coherence for tripartite pure and mixed states in the presence of structured dephasing environments at finite temperatures. Our findings demonstrate that the system's resilience to decoherence is strongly influenced by the bath type and configuration. Specifically, when each qubit interacts with an independent environment, the coherence dynamics differ from those observed in a shared bath setting. In a Markov, memoryless environment, coherence in both pure and mixed states decay faster, whereas coherence is preserved for longer time in the presence of environment memory. This highlights the crucial role of environment memory in enhancing the robustness of tripartite coherence.

Angle-Invariant Scattering in Metasurfaces

Mustafa Yücel, Francisco S. Cuesta, Karim Achouri

详情
英文摘要

Metasurfaces are efficient and versatile electromagnetic structures that have already enabled the implementation of a wide range of microwave and photonic wave shaping applications. Despite the extensive research into metasurfaces, a rigorous and comprehensive understanding of their angular dispersion remains vastly under-explored. Here, we use the generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) to model and analyze the angular dispersive properties of metasurfaces. Based on this theoretical framework, we demonstrate that a metasurface may exhibit either partial or complete co- and cross-polarized transmission and reflection coefficients that are angle-invariant, meaning that their amplitude, phase, or both remain unchanged with varying incidence angles. We show that these angle-independent responses exist only when specific conditions, given in terms of the metasurface effective susceptibilities, are met. Using the GSTCs formalism, we derive several of these conditions and illustrate their scattering properties. Among other findings, this analysis reveals that, contrary to common assumptions, nonlocality (spatial dispersion) does not only increase the angular dispersion of a metasurface, but may also be used to achieve complete angle-invariant scattering. Additionally, this work demonstrates that fully efficient extrinsic chirality is possible with a pseudochiral metasurface in a partially angle-invariant fashion. We expect our work to provide a general strategy for eliminating, or at least reducing, angular-dependent scattering responses of metasurfaces, which may prove instrumental for applications that are highly sensitive to the detrimental effects of angular dispersion.

Turbo Receiver Design for Differentially Encoded PSK in Bursty Impulsive Noise Channels

Chin-Hung Chen, Boris Karanov, Wim van Houtom, Yan Wu, Alex Alvarado

Comments preprint

详情
英文摘要

It has been recognized that the impulsive noise (IN) generated by power devices poses significant challenges to wireless receivers. In this paper, we comprehensively assess the achievable information rate (AIR) for the well-established Markov-Middleton IN model with a phase-shift keying (PSK) input sequence across various channel conditions, including matched and mismatched decoding scenarios. Upon determining information-theoretic bounds, we propose an optimal turbo-differentially encoded (DE)-PSK-IN receiver design based on a commonly used commercial transmission setup consisting of a convolutional encoder, bit-level interleaver, and a DE-PSK symbol mapper. We show that by incorporating the differential decoder into the maximum a-posteriori-based (MAP) IN detector, we can significantly enhance the receiver performance with a 4.5 dB gain compared to the conventional MAP-based turbo-PSK-IN receiver and a gap of around 1 dB to the theoretical bounds. We also propose a suboptimal separate receiver design that can be implemented with half the complexity of the joint design and near-optimal performance. We have evaluated the performance of the proposed receiver designs through extensive simulations, demonstrating their effectiveness in real-world scenarios with limited interleaver depth and mismatched state implementation.

英文摘要

For a system of partial differential equations that has an extended Kovalevskaya form, a reduction procedure is presented that allows one to use a local (point, contact, or higher) symmetry of a system and a symmetry-invariant conservation law to algorithmically calculate constants of motion holding for symmetry-invariant solutions. Several examples including cases of point and higher symmetry invariance are presented and discussed. An implementation of the algorithm in Maple is provided.

Left-truncated discrete lifespans: The AFiD enterprise panel

Eric Scholz, Rafael Weißbach

Comments 42 pages, 2 figures, 4 tables

详情
英文摘要

Our model for the lifespan of an enterprise is the geometric distribution. We do not formulate a model for enterprise foundation, but assume that foundations and lifespans are independent. We aim to fit the model to information about foundation and closure of German enterprises in the AFiD panel. The lifespan for an enterprise that has been founded before the first wave of the panel is either left truncated, when the enterprise is contained in the panel, or missing, when it already closed down before the first wave. Marginalizing the likelihood to that part of the enterprise history after the first wave contributes to the aim of a closed-form estimate and standard error. Invariance under the foundation distribution is achived by conditioning on observability of the enterprises. The conditional marginal likelihood can be written as a function of a martingale. The later arises when calculating the compensator, with respect some filtration, of a process that counts the closures. The estimator itself can then also be written as a martingale transform and consistency as well as asymptotic normality are easily proven. The life expectancy of German enterprises, estimated from the demographic information about 1.4 million enterprises for the years 2018 and 2019, are ten years. The width of the confidence interval are two months. Closure after the last wave is taken into account as right censored.

Airy limit for $β$-additions through Dunkl operators

David Keating, Jiaming Xu

Comments 56 pages, v3: significantly revised based on the referee's comments

详情
英文摘要

It is well known that the edge limit of Gaussian/Laguerre Beta-ensembles, as well as a large class of $β$-ensembles is given by the $\mathrm{Airy}(β)$ point process. We extend this universality result to a general class of additions of Gaussian and Laguerre ensembles, which were identified in \cite{AN} as projection of the ergodic measures of the $β$-corners process. In order to make sense of the $β$-addition, we introduce the Type-A Bessel function as the characteristic function of our matrix ensemble, following the approach of \cite{GM}, \cite{BCG}. Then we extract its moment information through the action of Dunkl operators, and obtain certain limiting functional expressed via conditional Brownian bridges for the Laplace transform of $\mathrm{Airy}(β)$. Our limit expression is universal up to proper rescaling among all of our additions, and agrees with the single-time Laplace transform expression from the concurrent work \cite{GXZ}.

Markov Processes for Enhanced Deepfake Generation and Detection

Michael A. Kouritzin, Ian Zhang, Jyoti Bhadana, Seoyeon Park

详情
英文摘要

New and existing methods for generating, and especially detecting, deepfakes are investigated and compared on the simple problem of authenticating coin flip data. Importantly, an alternative approach to deepfake generation and detection, which uses a Markov Observation Model (MOM) is introduced and compared on detection ability to the traditional Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) approach as well as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Branching Particle Filtering (BPF) and human alternatives. MOM was also compared on generative and discrimination ability to GAN, filtering and humans (as SVM does not have generative ability). Humans are shown to perform the worst, followed in order by GAN, SVM, BPF and MOM, which was the best at the detection of deepfakes. Unsurprisingly, the order was maintained on the generation problem with removal of SVM as it does not have generation ability.

Topological stabilizer models on continuous variables

英文摘要

We construct a family of two-dimensional topological stabilizer codes on continuous variable (CV) degrees of freedom, which generalize homological rotor codes and the toric-GKP code. Our topological codes are built using the concept of boson condensation -- we start from a parent stabilizer code based on an $\mathbb{R}$ gauge theory and condense various bosonic excitations. This produces a large class of topological CV stabilizer codes, including ones that are characterized by the anyon theories of $U(1)_{2n}\times U(1)_{-2m}$ Chern-Simons theories, for arbitrary pairs of positive integers $(n,m)$. Most notably, this includes anyon theories that are non-chiral and nevertheless do not admit a gapped boundary. It is widely believed that such anyon theories cannot be realized by any stabilizer model on finite-dimensional systems. We conjecture that these CV codes go beyond codes obtained from concatenating a topological qudit code with a local encoding into CVs, and thus, constitute the first example of topological codes that are intrinsic to CV systems. Moreover, we study the Hamiltonians associated to the topological CV stabilizer codes and show that, although they have a gapless spectrum, they can become gapped with the addition of a quadratic perturbation. We show that similar methods can be used to construct a gapped Hamiltonian whose anyon theory agrees with a $U(1)_2$ Chern-Simons theory. Our work initiates the study of scalable stabilizer codes that are intrinsic to CV systems and highlights how error-correcting codes can be used to design and analyze many-body systems of CVs that model lattice gauge theories.

英文摘要

Chiral charge density waves (CDWs) have attracted intense interest due to their exotic quantum properties, yet the microscopic origin of structural chirality emerging from correlated charge order remains elusive. Here, we reveal that the interlayer phases of CDW wave vectors, an overlooked degree of freedom, play a crucial role in driving chiral structural displacements in layered CDW materials. By explicitly incorporating the interlayer phases in first-principles calculations, we successfully obtained the chiral structure of the CDW phases of AV$_3$Sb$_5$ (A= K, Rb, and Cs) and 1T-TiSe$_2$. The electronic and optical properties of the predicted chiral structures are consistent with experimental measurements of these materials in their CDW phases. We further predict that 1T-NbSe$_2$ is a promising material candidate for realizing chiral CDW order. Beyond materials prediction, our theory reveals that the chiral CDW can be manipulated by electron filling. Our study opens new avenues for discovering, designing, and engineering chiral CDW materials.

英文摘要

Let $(f,g): (S,s) \to (\mathbb{C}^2, 0)$ be a finite morphism from a germ of normal complex analytic surface to the germ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ at the origin. We show that the affine algebraic curve in $\mathbb{C}^2$ defined by the initial Newton polynomial of a defining series of the discriminant germ of $(f,g)$ depends up to toric automorphisms only on the germs of curves defined by $f$ and $g$. This result generalizes a theorem of Gryszka, Gwoździewicz and Parusiński, which is the special case in which $(S,s)$ is smooth. Our proof uses a common generalization of formulas of Lê, Casas-Alvero and Némethi for the intersection number of the discriminant with a germ of plane curve. It uses also a theorem of Delgado and Maugendre characterizing the special members of pencils of curves on normal surface singularities. We apply it to the pencils generated by all pairs $(f^b, g^a)$, for varying positive integral exponents $a, b$, following a strategy initiated by Gwoździewicz and by Delgado and Maugendre. This is similar to the Eudoxian method of comparison of magnitudes by comparing the sizes of their positive integral multiples.

英文摘要

When a magnetic field is applied in the perpendicular direction to a metallic disk under the action of a radial bias voltage, a tangential electric current superimposes to the radial current due to the presence of the Lorentz force which acts on electrons. Here we introduce a thermal analog of this Corbino effect in many-body systems made of nonreciprocal bodies which interact by exchanging photons in near-field regime. In systems out of thermal equilibrium with a radial temperature gradient, we demonstrate that the Poynting field in the Corbino geometry is bent in presence of an external magnetic field, giving rise to a tangential heat flux. This thermomagnetic effect could find applications in the field of thermal management and energy conversion at nanoscale.

英文摘要

We investigate the interaction of fermion fields with oscillating domain walls, inspired by breather-type solutions of the sine-Gordon equation, a nonlinear system of fundamental importance. Our study focuses on the fermionic bound states and particle production induced by a time-dependent scalar background field. The fermions couple to two domain walls undergoing harmonic motion, and we explore the resulting dynamics of the fermionic wave functions. We demonstrate that while fermions initially form bound states around the domain walls, the energy provided by the oscillatory motion of the scalar field induces an outward flux of fermions and antifermions, leading to particle production and eventual flux propagation toward spatial infinity. Through numerical simulations, we observe that the fermion density exhibits quasiperiodic behavior, with partial recurrences of the bound state configurations after each oscillation period. However, the fermion wave functions do not remain localized, and over time, the density decreases as more particles escape the vicinity of the domain walls. Our results highlight that the sine-Gordon-like breather background, when coupled non-supersymmetrically to fermions, does not preserve integrability or stability, with the oscillations driving a continuous energy transfer into the fermionic modes. This study sheds light on the challenges of maintaining steady-state fermion solutions in time-dependent topological backgrounds and offers insights into particle production mechanisms in nonlinear dynamical systems with oscillating solitons.

英文摘要

The present work emphasizes the relevance of low-field NMR relaxometry to investigate colloid-polymer hydrogels by probing water dynamics across a wide range of formulations between $\rm 10^{\circ}C$ and $\rm 80^{\circ}C$. By examining the temperature dependence of the transverse relaxation time $T_2$, we demonstrate a clear link between the NMR response and the rheological behavior of the hydrogels. In particular, we show that NMR relaxometry targeting the solvent provides reliable insights into the hydrogel microstructure and allows the detection of phase transitions and aging processes. Our findings suggest that this solvent-focused technique could greatly benefit the soft matter community, complementing other experimental methods in the study of gels.

英文摘要

We introduce the theory of local minimal models for Kan simplicial manifolds, which provide the appropriate generalization of minimal Kan simplicial sets to geometric contexts. We use this to obtain the first proof of Lie's third theorem for finite-type Lie $\infty$-algebras: Every finite-type, homologically and non-negatively graded $L_\infty$-algebra over $\mathbb{R}$ integrates to a finite-dimensional Lie $\infty$-group. As a corollary, our construction yields a new explicit finite-dimensional model for the string Lie 2-group.

英文摘要

Preserving multipartite entanglement amidst decoherence poses a pivotal challenge in quantum information processing. However, assessing multipartite entanglement in mixed states amid decoherence presenting a formidable task. Employing reservoir memory offers a means to attenuate the decoherence dynamics impacting multipartite entanglement, thereby slowing its degradation. One of the important measures which can be implemented to quantify entanglement is the relative entropy of entanglement. Although this measure is not monogamous \cite{horodeckirev2009}, it can universally be applied to both pure and mixed states. Based on this fundamental novelty, in this work, therefore, we introduce a quantifier which will investigate how entanglement remain distributed among the qubits of multipartite states when these states are exposed to multipartite dephasing setting. For our study we use various pure and mixed tripartite states subjected to finite temperature in both Markovian and non-Markovian local/common bath. Here, we consider situations where the three qubits interact with a common reservoir as well as a local bosonic reservoir. We also show that the robustness of a quantum system to decoherence depends on the distribution of entanglement and its interaction with various configurations of the bath. When each qubit has its own local environment, the system exhibits different distribution dynamics compared to when all three qubits share a common environment with one exception regarding a mixed state.
