Complexity bounds on neural networks for the solution of structured linear systems of equations
Benjamin Dörich, Roland Maier, Lukas Ullmer
详情
英文摘要
We derive upper bounds on the complexity of ReLU neural networks approximating the solution of a linear system given the matrix and the right-hand side. We focus on matrices which are symmetric positive definite and sparse, as they appear in the context of finite difference and finite element methods. For such matrices, we extend available results for the matrix inversion to the task of solving a linear system, where we leverage favorable properties of classical methods such as the modified Richardson and the conjugate gradient method. Our bounds on the number of layers and neurons are not only explicit with respect to the size of the matrices, but also with respect to their condition numbers.

Supercritical Site Percolation on Regular Graphs
Sahar Diskin, Michael Krivelevich, Itay Markbreit
详情
英文摘要
We consider site (vertex) percolation on $d$-regular graphs, for both constant-degree and growing-degree cases. We give sufficient, and relatively tight, conditions for the emergence of the ``Erdős-Rényi component phenomenon" in the supercritical regime $p=\frac{1+ε}{d-1}$: namely, the appearance of a unique giant component of order $n/d$ in the percolated subgraph, with all other components being of size $O(\log n)$. Our main results apply both to the $d$-dimensional hypercube and to pseudo-random graphs, and resolve two open questions in these cases. We further discuss differences (and similarities) between bond (edge) percolation setting and site percolation setting.

Non-Markovian Cosmic-Ray Pitch-Angle Transport from Mirror Interactions

英文摘要
Cosmic-ray pitch-angle transport in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is governed by the interplay between magnetic mirroring and gyroresonant scattering. We develop a guiding-center (GC) Langevin model with explicit mirror drift and gyroresonant diffusion to describe the pitch angle evolution. This model accurately captures our test-particle simulation results in three-dimensional MHD turbulence, driven both solenoidally and compressively. We find that magnetic mirroring can drive anomalous pitch-angle diffusion at large pitch angles (including $90^\circ$) with non-Markovian memory effects, which arises from trapping of particles in magnetic wells. Gyroresonant scattering controls the escape rate from these wells. Across $M_{\rm A}$, large-pitch-angle particles are jointly regulated by mirror trapping and gyroresonant escape, exhibiting a transition from anomalous to normal diffusive pitch-angle transport as scattering strengthens, whereas small-pitch-angle particles remain gyroresonance-dominated and diffusive throughout. The pitch angle transport is found to be dominated by the compressible perturbations with marginal influence from Alfvén modes. In compressible turbulence with realistic damping accounted for, transit time damping (TTD) treatment fully recovers mirror interactions.

Neptune's obliquity was likely engendered by Triton's tidal evolution
Rodney Gomes
详情
英文摘要
Neptune's present axial tilt of approximately 28 deg. with respect to its orbital plane can be explained by collisions that its primordial core may have experienced with surrounding planetary embryos during the final stages of its formation. Alternatively, Neptune could have attained its present mass solely through pebble accretion, without the formation of nearby planetary embryos. The embryo-collision scenario has the advantage of naturally explaining the large axial tilts observed in the ice giants. To account for these tilts without invoking late-stage catastrophic collisions, an alternative mechanism must be considered. In this work, I propose that Neptune's current axial tilt could result from the interaction between Triton's tidally evolving orbit and Neptune's spin axis, causing it to resonate with the solar system eigenfrequency s_8. Starting from a Triton-mass satellite captured via the binary planetesimal disruption mechanism, I show that orbital evolutions bringing the satellite near Triton's present orbit can induce a spin-s_8 resonance capable of producing a significant axial tilt of Neptune's spin axis. I develop a model for planetary spin-axis evolution using Euler's equations for a rigid body, which is incorporated into classical numerical integrations of the Newtonian equations of motion. I also include a tidal model to account for the satellite's semimajor-axis decay and orbital circularization. Several numerical simulations are performed with this model, including Neptune as the central body, the newly captured satellite, the Sun and the three other giant planets. Increases in Neptune's obliquity are observed, exceeding 50 deg. in some cases. An obliquity above 20 deg. is obtained for roughly 1/3 of the cases. If Neptune initially had a near-zero obliquity, its current value could therefore have been naturally engendered by the tidal evolution of Triton.

Thermodynamic Analysis of Charged AdS Black Holes with Cloud of Strings in Einstein-Bumblebee Gravity via Tsallis Entropy
Faizuddin Ahmed, Edilberto O. Silva
Comments 20 pages, 13 figures. Comments are welcome
详情
英文摘要
We investigate the thermodynamic properties of charged anti-de Sitter black holes surrounded by a cloud of strings in bumblebee gravity. In this framework, the cloud-of-strings parameter $α$ and the Lorentz-violating parameter $\ell$ modify the horizon structure, the Hawking temperature, the free energies, the specific heat, and the critical behavior in the extended phase-space description. We derive the corresponding equation of state and show that the system exhibits a small--large black-hole phase transition of Van der Waals type. In particular, the critical quantities are deformed by both the cloud of strings and the bumblebee background, while the universal ratio is explicitly altered by Lorentz symmetry breaking. We also examine the Joule--Thomson expansion and analyze the associated inversion and isenthalpic curves, showing how the deformation parameters shift the boundary between heating and cooling regions. In addition, we extend the thermodynamic analysis to a Tsallis entropy-based framework and show that the non-extensive parameter $δ$ significantly changes the temperature profile, stability windows, critical volume, free energies, and sparsity of Hawking radiation. Our results reveal that the combined effects of the string cloud, Lorentz violation, and non-extensive entropy lead to a substantially richer thermodynamic structure than that of the standard Reissner--Nordström--AdS black hole.

A heavy-ball type curve search method for smooth convexly constrained optimization
Federica Donnini, Pierluigi Mansueto
详情
英文摘要
This paper addresses smooth convexly constrained optimization problems where the Euclidean projection onto the feasible set is computationally tractable. Although momentum techniques like Polyak's heavy-ball are known for accelerating optimization algorithms, their use in constrained settings remains limited due to challenges in preserving feasibility and ensuring convergence. We thus propose a heavy-ball-type method that extends to the constrained case a recently introduced curve-search globalization framework. The method attempts a momentum update and performs a curvilinear search to enforce an Armijo-type descent condition: when the momentum step is infeasible or unacceptable, the algorithm smoothly reverts to a feasible descent direction. We prove that the algorithm is well-defined and globally convergent to stationary points; the derivation of these results is nontrivial due to the use of a heavy-ball type direction in a constrained setting, where it may generate infeasible iterates. We discuss the incorporation of further mechanisms into the algorithm, including non-monotone curve search, spectral steplength selection and an adaptive momentum strategy. Numerical experiments on benchmark problems show the method is robust and competitive with the state-of-the-art.

Linear and group identifying codes in Hamming Graphs
N. V. Shinde, S. A. Mane
Comments 15 pages, 6 figures
详情
英文摘要
Codes are crucial in many areas of applications. Different types of codes are designed to meet specific needs, which makes them more effective and useful. Linear codes are extensively used in data storage systems. Identifying codes are essential for locating malfunctioning processors. To combine these benefits, researchers have looked into a type of code called linear identifying codes. These codes blend the error-correction abilities of linear codes with the fault-finding capabilities of identifying codes. Group codes are also highly regarded for their strong properties and reliable decoding methods. In our work, we introduce a new type of identifying code called group Identifying codes. These codes aim to bring together the best features of both Identifying codes and group codes, offering enhanced performance in fault detection and system reliability. In this paper, we establish limits on the smallest size of a group identifying code when \( G \) is an \( n \)-dimensional Hamming cube \( K_{m_1} \square K_{m_2} \square \dots \square K_{m_n} \). Additionally, we determine the smallest size of a linear identifying code in \( K_p^n \) for a prime \( p \) and \( n \geq 2 \). In [1], it was hypothesized that \( γ^{ID}(K_m^3) = m^2 \) for an integer \( m \geq 2 \). Although this conjecture was disproven in [2], we demonstrate that group identifying codes in \( K_m^3 \) for an integer \( m \geq 2 \) and linear identifying codes in \( K_p^3 \) for a prime \( p \) indeed fulfill this conjecture.

LLMs Aren't Human: A Critical Perspective on LLM Personality
Kim Zierahn, Cristina Cachero, Anna Korhonen, Nuria Oliver
Comments 4 pages
详情
英文摘要
A growing body of research examines personality traits in Large Language Models (LLMs), particularly in human-agent collaboration. Prior work has frequently applied the Big Five inventory to assess LLM behavior analogous to human personality, without questioning the underlying assumptions. This paper critically evaluates whether LLM responses to personality tests satisfy six defining characteristics of personality. We find that none are fully met, indicating that such assessments do not measure a construct equivalent to human personality. We propose a research agenda for shifting from anthropomorphic trait attribution toward functional evaluations, clarifying what personality tests actually capture in LLMs and developing LLM-specific frameworks for characterizing stable, intrinsic behavior.

英文摘要
In this work, microwave measurements carried out in dielectric-loaded resonators exposed to high magnetic fields are exploited to yield the surface impedance of Nb$_3$Sn superconducting coatings deposited via two different techniques: vapor tin diffusion, and DC magnetron sputtering. The obtained data lead to qualitative interpretations on both the Nb$_3$Sn superconducting properties, and vortex-dynamics and pinning, of each coating separately, as well as simple distinctive features when comparing those. When examining the respective surface impedances at varying field, it is expected that the studied films perform at substantially diverse magnitudes of flux-flow resistivity, but also in well-differentiated pinning regimes, yet the obtained surface resistances of both samples are comparable, thus demonstrating that there is room for film optimization at the expense of certain compromise between the parameters involved.

Exact Law of Quantum Reversibility under Gaussian Pure Loss
Ammar Fayad
Comments arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2603.06488
详情
英文摘要
Classical reverse diffusion is generated by changing the drift at fixed noise. We show that the quantum version of this principle obeys an exact law with a sharp phase boundary. For Gaussian pure-loss dynamics -- the canonical model of continuous-variable decoherence in optical attenuation channels, squeezed-light interferometric sensing, and superconducting bosonic architectures -- complete positivity, the requirement that the dynamics remain physical even for systems entangled with an ancilla, creates an exact phase boundary at which the minimum reverse cost vanishes, fixes the reverse-noise budget on both sides, and makes pure nonclassical targets dynamically singular. The minimum reverse cost vanishes exactly at a critical squeezing-to-thermal ratio and is strictly positive away from it, with a sharp asymmetry: below the boundary, standard reverse prescriptions such as the fixed-diffusion Bayes reverse remain feasible at mild cost; above it, these prescriptions become infeasible, the covariance-aligned generator remains CP-feasible and uniquely optimal, and the cost can be severe. The optimal reverse noise is locked to the state's own fluctuation geometry and simultaneously minimizes the geometric, metrological, and thermodynamic price of reversal. For multimode trajectories, the exact cost is additive in a canonical set of mode-resolved data, and a globally continuous protocol attains this optimum on every mixed-state interval. If a pure nonclassical endpoint is included, the same pointwise law holds for every $t>0$, but the optimum diverges as $2/t$: exact reversal of a pure quantum state is dynamically unattainable. These results establish an exact law of quantum reversibility in the canonical pure-loss setting and provide a sharp benchmark for broader theories of quantum reverse diffusion.

英文摘要
3I/ATLAS is the third confirmed interstellar object passing through the Solar System. In this work, we conduct narrowband radio technosignature search toward 3I/ATLAS using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) L-band multibeam receiver from October 2025 to January 2026 on 4 separate dates (i.e. Mars closest, perihelion, Earth closest and flew away from Earth, respectively). We carry out frequency-drifting signal searching with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) over 10 within 1.05-1.45 GHz via \texttt{bliss} pipeline. These signal hits are grouping into event by beam, frequency and drift rate matching, the events are then filtered by cluster analysis and drift rate cut-off. We also characterized the events by their significance in SNR, structure tensor as well as principal component analysis (PCA). No credible narrowband radio technosignature are detected from 3I/ATLAS after visual inspections. The null results place constraints on the presence of transmitters above $2.862\times 10^{-3}$ W. We further introduce a Bayesian inference framework to constraints on the existence probability and characteristic power of hypothetical transmitters using physically motivated priors to bracket plausible transmitter scenarios.

英文摘要
This is the third paper of the set recording the results of the suite of tests of general relativity (GR) performed on the signals from the fourth Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-4.0), where we focus on the remnants of the binary mergers. We examine for the first time 42 events from the first part of the fourth observing run of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA detectors, alongside events from the previous observation runs, restricting our analysis to the confident signals, which were measured in at least two detectors and that have false alarm rates $\le 10^{-3} \mathrm{yr}^{-1}$. This paper focuses on seven tests of the coalescence remnants. Three of these are tests of the ringdown and its consistency with the expected quasinormal mode spectrum of a Kerr black hole. Specifically, two tests analyze just the ringdown in the time domain, and the third test analyzes the entire signal in the frequency domain. Four tests allow for the existence of possible echoes arriving after the end of the ringdown, which are not expected in GR. We find overall consistency of the remnants with GR. When combining events by multiplying likelihoods (hierarchically), one analysis finds that the GR prediction lies at the boundary of the $98.6^{+1.4}_{-9.4}\%$ ($99.3^{+0.7}_{-4.5}\%$) credible region, an increase from $93.8^{+6.1}_{-20.0}\%$ ($94.9^{+4.4}_{-18.2}\%$) for GWTC-3.0. Here the ranges of values comes from bootstrapping to account for the finite number of events analyzed and suggest that some of the apparently significant deviation could be attributed to variance due to the finite catalog. Since the significance also decreases to 92.2% (96.2%) when including the more recent very loud event GW250114, there is no strong evidence for a GR deviation. We find no evidence for post-merger echoes in the events that were analyzed. (Abridged)

英文摘要
In this second of three papers on tests of general relativity (GR) applied to the compact binary coalescence signals in the fourth Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-4.0), we present the results of the parameterized tests of GR and constraints on line-of-sight acceleration. We include events up to and including the first part of the fourth observing run (O4a) of the LIGO Virgo KAGRA detectors. As in the other two papers in this series, we restrict our analysis to the 42 confident signals, measured by at least two detectors, that have false alarm rates $\le 10^{-3} \mathrm{yr}^{-1}$ from O4a, in addition to the 49 such events from previous observing runs. This paper focuses on the eight tests that constrain parameterized deviations from the expected GR (or unaccelerated) values. These include modifications of post-Newtonian (PN) parameters, spin-induced quadrupole moments different from those of a binary black hole, and possible dispersive or birefringent propagation effects. Overall, we find no evidence for physics beyond GR, for spin-induced quadrupole moments different from those of a Kerr black hole in GR, or for line of sight acceleration, with more than 90% of the events including the null result (no deviation) within their 90% credible intervals. We discuss possible systematics affecting the other events and tests, even though they are statistically not surprising, given noise. We improve the bounds on deviations from the GR PN coefficients by factors of 1.2-5.5 and provide illustrative translations to constraints on some modified theories. Also, we update the bound on the mass of the graviton, at 90% credibility, to $m_g \leq 1.92\times 10^{-23} \mathrm{eV}/c^2$. Thus, we see that GR holds, and many of the bounds on possible deviations derived from our events are the best to date.

Comments As part of the Astrophysical Journal Letters Focus Issue on the Gravitational Wave Transient Catalog
详情
英文摘要
The worldwide LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA network of gravitational-wave (GW) detectors continues to increase in sensitivity, thus increasing the quantity and quality of the detected GW signals from compact binary coalescences. These signals allow us to perform ever-more sensitive tests of general relativity (GR) in the dynamical and strong-field regime of gravity. This paper is the first of three, where we present the results of a suite of tests of GR using the binary signals included in the fourth GW Transient Catalog (GWTC-4.0), i.e., up to and including the first part of the fourth observing run of the detectors (O4a). We restrict our analysis to the 91 confident signals, henceforth called events, that were measured by at least two detectors, and have false alarm rates $\le 10^{-3} \mathrm{yr}^{-1}$. These include 42 events from O4a. This first paper presents an overview of the methods, selection of events and GR tests, and serves as a guidemap for all three papers. Here we focus on the four general tests of consistency, where we find no evidence for deviations from our models. Specifically, for all the events considered, we find consistency of the residuals with noise. The final mass and final spin as inferred from the low- and high-frequency parts of the waveform are consistent with each other. We also find no evidence for deviations from the GR predictions for the amplitudes of subdominant GW multipole moments, or for non-GR modes of polarization. We thus find that GR, without new physics beyond it, is still consistent with these GW events. The results of the two additional papers in this trio also find overall consistency with vacuum GR, with more than 90% of the events being consistent with GR at the 90% credible level. While one of the ringdown analyses finds the GR value in the tails for its combined results, this may be due in part to catalog variance.

Generation of Whistler Waves by Reflected Electrons and Their Self-Confinement at Quasi-Perpendicular Shocks
Ruolin Wang, Takanobu Amano
Comments Accepted by Physics of Plasmas
详情
英文摘要
We investigate the mechanism of whistler-mode wave generation by shock-reflected electrons at quasi-perpendicular collisionless shocks. By employing Liouville mapping to construct the electron velocity distribution function in the shock and performing linear instability analysis, we explore whistler wave generation by the mirror-reflected electrons near the upstream edge of the shock transition layer. We find that the reflected electrons can excite two distinct instabilities with different propagation directions when both the upstream electron beta $β_e$ and Alfven Mach number in the de Hoffmann-Teller frame $M_A/\cosθ_{bn}$ are sufficiently large, where $M_A$ is \Alfven Mach number and $θ_{bn}$ is the angle between the upstream magnetic field and the shock normal. In the parameter regime of Earth's bow shock, the instability threshold condition is roughly given by $M_A/\cosθ_{bn}\gtrsim50$. Since such shocks are super-critical with respect to the whistler critical Mach number, the generated waves cannot propagate upstream and will accumulate in the transition layer. Furthermore, we find that the pitch-angle scattering by the generated waves may trigger secondary instabilities on the same branch. We suggest that the sequence of instabilities likely happening within the shock transition layer can efficiently scatter the reflected electrons over a broad range of pitch angles. Consequently, the reflected electrons may be confined within the shock by the waves generated by themselves. The self-confinement provides the necessary ingredient of stochastic shock drift acceleration, which then offers a plausible mechanism for the electron injection into diffusive shock acceleration.

Literature Study on Operational Data Analytics Frameworks in Large-scale Computing Infrastructures
Shekhar Suman, Xiaoyu Chu, Alexandru Iosup

英文摘要
By 2025, there are zettabytes of data generated every year. The size and complexity of modern large-scale computing infrastructures like High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems continue to evolve and become complex, leaving us wondering about their manageability and sustainability concerns. Because of this reason, those complex systems are provided with fine-grained monitoring and Operational Data Analytics (ODA) capabilities to optimise their efficiency. In this literature study, we list the fundamental pillars of the large-scale computing infrastructures which enable its ODA capabilities, and conduct a study of the popular ODA frameworks operating in various such environments (predominantly HPC). Based on that, we propose a more holistic ODA framework matching the various layers of a large-scale graph-processing distributed ecosystem proposed by Sherif Sak et al, that extends the ODA functionalities presented in an existing novel ODA framework proposed by Netti et al. We compare the holistic ODA framework proposed by us to some of the state-of-the-art frameworks that we study as part of this literature to highlight the novelty, which would hopefully draw more attention to perform extensive research in this field. As part of creating awareness, we highlight the significant operational efficiencies observed as a result of the implementation of the state-of-the-art ODA frameworks to make the study appear beneficial for the readers, and lastly, discuss the trending research work ongoing in this field.

Acoustic radiation of thermodiffusively unstable turbulent lean premixed hydrogen-air flames
Francesco G. Schiavone, Guillaume Daviller, Davide Laera
详情
英文摘要
The impact of thermodiffusive effects on combustion noise in turbulent premixed slot jet flames is investigated using Direct Numerical Simulations. Two thermodiffusively unstable lean hydrogen-air flames are compared with a thermodiffusively stable stoichiometric methane-air flame with comparable laminar properties and same turbulence intensity. The hydrogen cases differ in bulk velocity, chosen to match either the turbulent flame brush length or the bulk velocity of the methane case. Thermodiffusive effects are found to strongly alter both the heat release rate fluctuations, which dominate the far-field acoustic radiation, and the flame surface dynamics. A theoretical framework extending the classical flamelet theory to thermodiffusively unstable flames is proposed and validated, relating the flame-generated sound to the time derivative of the flame surface area and to the stretch factor $I_0$. The analysis identifies flame stretch as a key mechanism promoting noise radiation in thermodiffusively unstable flames. Spectral analyses further show that hydrogen flames exhibit stronger low-frequency heat release rate fluctuations and reduced high-frequency content relative to the methane flame. This is shown to be related to the coupled action of turbulence and thermodiffusive instabilities, which enhance large-scale flame motions while attenuating small-scale flame annihilation events. Consequently, hydrogen flames radiate more strongly at low frequencies, near the acoustic peak, and exhibit a steeper high-frequency spectral roll-off. Finally, Spectral Proper Orthogonal Decomposition reveals that hydrogen non-equidiffusion intensifies shear layer instabilities between combustion products and ambient air. These results indicate that thermodiffusive effects influence both direct and indirect combustion noise generation mechanisms in hydrogen flames.

Multiparameter quantum estimation and Stirling Engine Performance in a Gravitational Cat State System
Omar Bachain, Mohamed Amazioug, Rachid Ahl Laamara
Comments 27 pages, 24 figures
详情
英文摘要
We investigate the multiparameter quantum estimation and quantum thermodynamics properties of a gravitational cat state (gravcat) system composed of two interacting massive particles confined in double-well potentials. The system is described by an effective Hamiltonian involving the energy splitting parameter $ω$ and the gravitational coupling strength $γ$, while the interaction with a thermal environment is modeled through a Gibbs thermal state. Within the framework of quantum parameter estimation theory, we employ the quantum Fisher information matrix (QFIM) to analyze the precision limits for estimating the three fundamental parameters of the model, namely the gravitational coupling $γ$, the energy splitting $ω$, and the temperature $T$. Utilizing the symmetric logarithmic derivative (SLD) formalism within the QFIM framework, we derive the analytical expressions of the estimation bounds and evaluate the corresponding minimal variances associated with the quantum Cramér-Rao bound. Both simultaneous and individual estimation strategies are investigated, and their performances are compared in different parameter regimes. Our results reveal the existence of optimal estimation regions where the precision is significantly enhanced and show that the relative efficiency of the estimation schemes strongly depends on the interaction strength, the energy gap, and the thermal environment. In addition, the thermodynamic behavior of the system is analyzed within the framework of a quantum Stirling cycle. The internal energy, entropy, heat exchanges, and work production are examined, allowing us to evaluate the efficiency of the gravcat-based quantum heat engine. The obtained results highlight the interplay between quantum metrology and quantum thermodynamics.

End-to-End Simulation of Chemical Dynamics on a Quantum Computer
Elliot C. Eklund, Arkin Tikku, Patrick Sinnott, William J. Huggins, Guang Hao Low, Dominic W. Berry, Ivan Kassal
详情
英文摘要
Simulations of chemical dynamics are a powerful means for understanding chemistry. However, classical computers struggle to simulate many chemical processes, especially non-adiabatic ones, where the Born-Oppenheimer approximation breaks down. Quantum computers could simulate quantum-chemical dynamics more efficiently than classical computers, but there is currently no complete quantum algorithm for calculating dynamical observables to within a known error. Here, we develop an efficient, end-to-end quantum algorithm for simulating chemical dynamics that avoids all uncontrolled approximations (including the Born-Oppenheimer approximation) and whose error is bounded subject to mild assumptions. To do so, we treat the nuclei and the electrons on an equal footing and simulate the full molecular wavefunction on a momentum-space grid in first quantization, including all algorithmic steps: initial-state preparation, time evolution using qubitization, and measurement of chemical observables such as reaction yields and rates. Our work gives the first algorithm for quantum simulation of chemistry whose end-to-end complexity achieves sublinear scaling in the size of the grid. We achieve this by developing an exponentially faster method for initial-state-preparation. Photochemistry is a likely early application of our algorithm and we estimate resources required for end-to-end simulations of non-adiabatic dynamics of atmospherically important molecules. Classically intractable photochemical computations could be performed using resources comparable to those required for other chemical applications of quantum computing.

Non-Hermitian Structure and Exceptional Points in Yang-Mills Theory from Analytic Continuation of Nc
Qingjun Jin, Ke Ren, Gang Yang, Rui Yu
Comments 21 pages, 10 figures
详情
英文摘要
We show that analytic continuation of the number of colors, Nc, naturally endows Yang-Mills theory with a non-Hermitian structure. By examining the spectrum of the dilatation operator as a function of complex Nc, we identify a network of Exceptional Points (EPs) -- non-Hermitian degeneracies where anomalous dimensions degenerate and operator eigenstates coalesce. We demonstrate that these EPs act as topological defects in complex Nc-space, generating non-Abelian geometric phases and enforcing nontrivial monodromies among gauge-invariant operators. Moreover, we establish a correspondence between the spontaneous breaking of an emergent PT symmetry of the dilatation operator and the fundamental spacetime PT symmetry of the underlying gauge theory. In the vicinity of EPs, the resulting non-Hermitian dynamics produces logarithmic scaling behavior in correlation functions, characteristic of logarithmic conformal field theories. Our results place conventional unitary Yang-Mills theory within a broader complexified parameter space possessing rich topological structure, suggesting a new interface between non-Hermitian physics and quantum field theory.

Uniqueness and locality of the ground state of the disordered Monomer-Dimer models on independently weighted Unimodular Bienaymé-Galton-Watson trees
Mihyun Kang, Mike Liu
Comments 17pages, 3 figures
详情
英文摘要
Consider a finite graph $G=(V(G),E(G))$ and two continuous weight distributions $ω$ and $ξ$, for which we only assume that $ξ$ is lower bounded. Next, independently draw weights $(w(e))_{e \in E(G)}$ with distribution $ω$ on edges and $(x(v))_{v \in V(G)}$ with distribution $ξ$ on vertices. The ground state of the monomer-dimer model on the weighted graph $G$ is a collection of edges (dimers) and vertices (monomers) such that every vertex is included in at most one monomer or dimer, and such that the sum of weights on its dimers and monomers is maximised. Take $(G_n,o_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ to be a sequence of random rooted weighted graphs that converges locally to an independently weighted unimodular Bienaymé-Galton-Watson tree $(\mathbb{T},o)$ with vertex-weight distribution $ξ$ and edge-weight distribution $ω$ . By proving that the ground state of the monomer-dimer model on the tree $(\mathbb{T},o)$ is almost surely unique and locally approximable, we prove that the ground state of the monomer-dimer model on $(G_n,o_n)$ must converge locally to the ground state of the monomer-dimer model on $(\mathbb{T},o)$. This also implies a strong decorrelation property on monomer-dimer models on unimodular Bienaymé-Galton-Watson trees.

On a family of singular potentials: Parameter dependence of thermodynamic characteristics
Philipp Gohlke, Georgios Lamprinakis, Jörg Schmeling
详情
英文摘要
We consider the family of singular potentials $ψ_c = 2 \log(|\sin(π(x-c))|)$, $c\in \mathbb{T}$ over the doubling map and we examine the dependence of several thermodynamic and multifractal characteristics on the position of the singularity $c$. This includes the pressure functions $\mathcal P(t ψ_c)$, the Birkhoff spectrum of $ψ_c$, and the $L^q$ spectrum of the associated equilibrium measure $μ_c$. For every $c \in \mathbb{T}$, it is known that $μ_c$ is given by the diffraction measure of a generalized Thue--Morse sequence, with the classical Thue--Morse measure arising for $c = 0$. If $t\geqslant 0$, we show that $c \mapsto \mathcal{P}(tψ_c)$ is continuous in $c$. If $t<0$, we prove that the function $c \mapsto \mathcal{P}(tψ_c)$ is lower semicontinuous but not continuous. In this case, we show that the continuity points are precisely those values $c$ such that $\mathcal{P}(tψ_c) = \infty$, which form a residual set of vanishing Hausdorff dimension in $\mathbb{T}$. We obtain similar statements about the parameter (semi-)continuity of the $L^q$ spectrum and the Birkhoff spectrum.

Computation of thermal entropy for the doped Hubbard Model
Yu-Feng Song, Youjin Deng, Yuan-Yao He
Comments 19 pages, 11 figures
详情
英文摘要
We develop a highly efficient framework for computing the thermal entropy in the doped Fermi-Hubbard model within the grand-canonical ensemble. The framework comprises four calculation schemes that express the entropy as path integrals in the parameter space of temperature, interaction strength, and chemical potential. The integrands involve only fundamental observables, including the total energy, fermion density, and double occupancy, which are readily accessible in a wide range of theoretical and numerical methods. We further derive useful Maxwell relations connecting the entropy to other quantities, and present practical formulas for directly evaluating the grand potential. As an application, we compute the entropy of the doped Hubbard model in two and three dimensions, using the numerically unbiased auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo method. The test results show excellent agreement across the different schemes and quantitatively verify the Maxwell relations, confirming the reliability of the framework. In two dimensions, we further benchmark our entropy results in physically relevant parameter regimes against diagrammatic Monte Carlo calculations and observe excellent quantitative consistency between the two approaches. By providing an efficient and broadly applicable route for entropy evaluation, our work facilitates the thermodynamic characterization of complex correlated states in the doped Hubbard model.

Product Structure and Treewidth of Hyperbolic Uniform Disk Graphs
Thomas Bläsius, Emil Dohse, Deborah Haun, Laura Merker
Comments An extended abstract of this paper is published in the Proceedings of the 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)
详情
英文摘要
Hyperbolic uniform disk graphs (HUDGs) are intersection graphs of disks with some radius $r$ in the hyperbolic plane, where $r$ may be constant or depend on the number of vertices in a family of HUDGs. We show that HUDGs with constant clique number do not admit \emph{product structure}, i.e., that there is no constant $c$ such that every such graph is a subgraph of $H \boxtimes P$ for some graph $H$ of treewidth at most $c$. This justifies that HUDGs are described as not having a grid-like structure in the literature, and is in contrast to unit disk graphs in the Euclidean plane, whose grid-like structure is evident from the fact that they are subgraphs of the strong product of two paths and a clique of constant size [Dvořák et al., '21, MATRIX Annals]. By allowing $H$ to be any graph of constant treewidth instead of a path-like graph, we reject the possibility of a grid-like structure not merely by the maximum degree (which is unbounded for HUDGs) but due to their global structure. We complement this by showing that for every (sub-)constant $r$, HUDGs admit product structure, whereas the typical hyperbolic behavior is observed if $r$ grows with the number of vertices. Our proof involves a family of $n$-vertex HUDGs with radius $\log n$ that has bounded clique number but unbounded treewidth, and one for which the ratio of treewidth and clique number is $\log n / \log \log n$. Up to a $\log \log n$ factor, this negatively answers a question raised by Bläsius et al. [SoCG '25] asking whether balanced separators of HUDGs with radius $\log n$ can be covered by less than $\log n$ cliques. Our results also imply that the local and layered tree-independence number of HUDGs are both unbounded, answering an open question of Dallard et al. [arXiv '25].

Resonances, Recurrence Times and Steady States in Monitored Noisy Qubit Systems
Shuanger Ma, Sabine Tornow, Eli Barkai
详情
英文摘要
We study non-equilibrium steady states and recurrence times in noisy, stroboscopically monitored qubit systems using complete measurements. In the noiseless limit, recurrence times are integer-quantized, with dips to lower integers when sampling approaches revival conditions associated with ergodicity breaking. Using an IBM quantum platform, we find that quantization is robust when sampling far from revivals, but breaks down dramatically near revivals: even weak noise produces large deviations and can invert the expected dips into pronounced peaks. To explain this behavior, we formulate a statistical-physics model of monitored noisy circuits in which monitoring drives an effective infinite-temperature steady state while thermal-like relaxation competes to favor a low-temperature limit. We show that the sampling time tunes a crossover between these regimes, near revivals stabilizing low-temperature behavior, and far from revivals restoring infinite-temperature behavior -- with noise strength and detuning acting as coupled small parameters near resonance.

Radar Detection through Rectified Flow Matching
P. Meena, Y. A. Rouzoumka, J. Pinsolle, C. Ren, M. N. El Korso, J. -P. Ovarlez
详情
英文摘要
Radar target detection in the presence of a mixture of non-Gaussian clutter and white thermal noise is a challenging problem. This paper proposes a Rectified Flow Matching-based method for radar detection, termed D-RFM. Unlike existing detectors, D-RFM learns a mapping from a standard Gaussian distribution to radar observations by capturing the underlying velocity field. Detection is then performed by inverse mapping test samples into the latent Gaussian space using the learned velocity field, with targets identified as deviations from the learned distribution. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method under both Gaussian and non-Gaussian clutter plus additive white Gaussian noise, highlighting its accuracy, robustness, and computational efficiency.

英文摘要
The MIDNA application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) are a series of skipper-CCD readout chips fabricated in a 65 nm low-power CMOS process that implement a correlated double sampling signal processing chain based on dual-slope integrators. They are capable of working from room to cryogenic temperatures, down to 84 K. The present iteration of the ASIC has been fabricated including several design updates and the addition of an on-chip voltage reference, resulting in improved performance. This work presents the main vulnerabilities solved, the changes carried out, and the resulting performance benefits. Measurements with a skipper-CCD and the ASIC at 140 K showed that the single-electron resolution can be reached by averaging the measured charge in the analog domain using the analog pile-up technique with a readout noise as low as 0.11 erms of equivalent charge for 1200 samples. The channel-to-channel crosstalk was also characterized showing values better than -62 dB.

英文摘要
Distributed lag non-linear models (DLNMs) are a popular approach to flexibly model the effect of time-delayed exposures. Classical DLNMs specify a common exposure-lag-response relationship across geographical areas. However, this relationship might be altered by an effect modifier that differs between spatial units. Although some methods have been proposed to account for effect modification, their applicability is context-dependent. For example, a meta-analysis can account for heterogeneity between groups, but this technique requires sufficiently large study groups. This limitation is particularly relevant when working with count data, where small numbers of events are often encountered. In this paper, we review existing methods that allow for spatial effect modification for count-based outcomes and propose a Bayesian DLNM alternative method that accounts for the modifier through flexible interaction effects. Through the use of Laplacian P-splines, we provide a computationally fast estimation procedure by avoiding the use of classical Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approaches. The performance of the different methods is evaluated through simulation studies. Moreover, the practical applicability of our proposed method is showcased through a data application, containing daily temperature and mortality count data in 87 Italian cities.

英文摘要
The intriguing interplay between competing degrees of freedom in frustrated magnets can lead to non-trivial magnetic phenomena with exotic low-energy excitations that are highly relevant for addressing some of the fundamental questions in quantum condensed matter as well as potential technological applications. Herein, we report the synthesis and thermodynamic results on a frustrated magnet Co3ZnNb2O9. The Co2+ moments constitute buckled AB-type honeycomb layers in the ab-plane. The temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility shows a sharp anomaly at 14 K, indicating the onset of long-range magnetic ordering. The Curie-Weiss fit of the magnetic susceptibility above 100 K, yields a Curie-Weiss temperature of -70 K, suggesting strong antiferromagnetic (AFM) interactions between the Co2+ spins and an effective magnetic moment of 5.54 muB, indicating the presence of unquenched orbital angular momentum. A field-induced spin-flop-like metamagnetic transition below the ordering temperature is characterized by a critical magnetic field of 1.2 T. The specific heat shows a lambda-type anomaly at 14 K, confirming the presence of long-range magnetic ordering, due to finite interlayer interaction. Interestingly, our study of the magnetocaloric effect near the transition temperature revealed an entropy change of 2.81 J/kg.K, which is ascribed to competing interactions, underlying anisotropy, and reduced net magnetization lead to relatively small isothermal entropy changes that suggest that frustrated honeycomb magnets are promising contenders for field-induced exotic phases and magnetocaloric response.
