The spectral numerical mode-matching (SNMM) method is developed to simulate the 3D layered multi-region structures. The SNMM method is a semi-analytical solver having the properties of dimensionality reduction to reduce computational costs; it is especially useful for microwave and optical integrated circuits where fabrication is often done in a layered stru

In this article, we describe an implementation of a polynomial system solver to compute the approximate solutions of a 0-dimensional polynomial system with finite precision p-adic arithmetic. We also describe an improvement to an algorithm of Caruso, Roe, and Vaccon for calculating the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a p-adic matrix.

Starting with infinitely many supercompact cardinals, we show that the tree property at every cardinal $\aleph_n$, $1 < n <ω$, is consistent with an arbitrary continuum function below $\aleph_ω$ which satisfies $2^{\aleph_n} > \aleph_{n+1}$, $n<ω$. Thus the tree property has no provable effect on the continuum function below $\aleph_ω$ except for the restric

Single molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) is widely used to monitor conformations and interactions dynamics at the molecular level. However, conventional smFRET measurements are ineffective at donor-acceptor distances exceeding 10 nm, impeding the studies on biomolecules of larger size. Here, we show that zero-mode waveguide (ZMW) apertures

This paper investigates the inelastic response of a yielding structure coupled with a rocking wall which can be vertically restrained. The paper first derives the nonlinear equations of motion of a yielding oscillator coupled with a vertically restrained rocking wall and the dependability of the one-degree of freedom idealization is validated against the non

Offchain protocols aim at bypassing the scalability and privacy limitations of classic blockchains by allowing a subset of participants to execute multiple transactions outside the blockchain. While existing solutions like payment networks and factories depend on a complex routing protocol, other solutions simply require participants to build a \emph{childch

Radiogenomic map linking image features and gene expression profiles is useful for noninvasively identifying molecular properties of a particular type of disease. Conventionally, such map is produced in three separate steps: 1) gene-clustering to &#34;metagenes&#34;, 2) image feature extraction, and 3) statistical correlation between metagenes and image feat

Spin injection is a powerful experimental probe into a wealth of nonequilibrium spin-dependent phenomena displayed by materials with spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Here, we develop a theory of coupled spin-charge diffusive transport in two-dimensional spin-valve devices. The theory describes a realistic proximity-induced SOC with both spatially uniform and rando

The relative positions of the high and low surface brightness regions of radio-loud active galaxies in the 3CR sample were found by Fanaroff and Riley to be correlated with their luminosity. We revisit this canonical relationship with a sample of 5805 extended radio-loud AGN from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS), compiling the most complete dataset of

The spin-Peierls transition is modeled in the dimer phase of the spin-$1/2$ chain with exchanges $J_1$, $J_2 = αJ_1$ between first and second neighbors. The degenerate ground state generates an energy cusp that qualitatively changes the dimerization $δ(T)$ compared to Peierls systems with nondegenerate ground states. The parameters $J_1 = 160$ K, $α= 0.35$ p

The field-circuit coupled simulation of switch-mode power converters with conventional time discretization is computationally expensive since very small time steps are needed to appropriately account for steep transients occurring inside the converter, not only for the degrees of freedom (DOFs) in the circuit, but also for the large number of DOFs in the fie

The effect of user bias in fact-checking has not been explored extensively from a user-experience perspective. We estimate the user bias as a function of the user&#39;s perceived reputation of the news sources (e.g., a user with liberal beliefs may tend to trust liberal sources). We build an interface to communicate the role of estimated user bias in the con

We explored the possibility of realizing quantum anomalous Hall effect by placing heavy-element atomic layer on top of monolayer CrI$_{3}$ with a natural cleavage surface and broken time-reversal symmetry. We showed that CrI$_{3}$/X (X = Bi, Sb, or As) systems can open up a sizable bulk gap to harbour quantum anomalous Hall effect, e.g., CrI$_{3}$/Bi is a na

Data exfiltration attacks have led to huge data breaches. Recently, the Equifax attack affected 147M users and a third-party library - Apache Struts - was alleged to be responsible for it. These attacks often exploit the fact that sensitive data are stored unencrypted in process memory and can be accessed by any function executing within the same process, in

Ta/CoFeB/MgO trilayers with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy are often characterised by vanishing or modest values of interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), which results in purely Bloch or mixed Bloch-Néel domain walls (DWs). Here we investigate the creep evolution of the overall magnetic bubble morphology in these systems under the combined

Quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) has been experimentally observed in magnetically doped topological insulators. However, ultra-low temperature (usually below 300 mK), which is mainly attributed to inhomogeneous magnetic doping, becomes a daunting challenge for potential applications. Here, a \textit{nonmagnetic}-doping strategy is proposed to produce fer

The present study evidences the role of ferrite grain size distributions on the occurrence of void initiation in a low carbon steel. Various thermomechanical treatments were done to create ultrafine, bimodal and coarse range of ferrite grain distributions.

Classical information retrieval (IR) methods, such as query likelihood and BM25, score documents independently w.r.t. each query term, and then accumulate the scores. Assuming query term independence allows precomputing term-document scores using these models---which can be combined with specialized data structures, such as inverted index, for efficient retr

Let $Ω\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ be a bounded pseudoconvex domain. We define the Diederich-Fornæss index with respect to a family of functions to be the supremum over the set of all exponents $0<η<1$ such that there exists a function $ρ_η$ in this family such that $-ρ_η$ is comparable to the distance to the boundary of $Ω$ on $Ω$ and such that $-(-ρ_η)^η$ is pluri

We consider a general class of non-linear Bellman equations. These open up a design space of algorithms that have interesting properties, which has two potential advantages. First, we can perhaps better model natural phenomena. For instance, hyperbolic discounting has been proposed as a mathematical model that matches human and animal data well, and can ther

A $t$-structure $t=(C_{t\le 0},C_{t\ge 0})$ on a triangulated category $C$ is right adjacent to a weight structure $w=(C_{w\le 0}, C_{w\ge 0})$ if $C_{t\ge 0}=C_{w\ge 0}$; then $t$ can be uniquely recovered from $w$ and vice versa. We prove that if $C$ satisfies the Brown representability property then $t$ that is adjacent to $w$ exists if and only if $w$ is

We consider the estimation problem in a regression setting where the outcome variable is subject to nonignorable missingness and identifiability is ensured by the shadow variable approach. We propose a versatile estimation procedure where modeling of missingness mechanism is completely bypassed. We show that our estimator is easy to implement and we derive t

We develop a novel tool to study the fixed point property of finite posets using a topological approach. Our tool is a construction which turns out to induce an endofunctor of the homotopy category of finite $T_0$--spaces. We study many properties of this construction and give several examples of application.

We establish a connection between a generalization of KLR algebras, called quiver Schur algebras, and the cohomological Hall algebras of Kontsevich and Soibelman. More specifically, we realize quiver Schur algebras as algebras of multiplication and comultiplication operators on the CoHA, and reinterpret the shuffle description of the CoHA in terms of Demazur

We performed an analysis of coherence properties of the 4-th generation high-energy storage rings with emittance values of 10 pmrad. It is presently expected that a storage ring with these low emittance values will reach diffraction limit at hard X-rays. Simulations of coherence properties were performed with the XRT software and analytical approach for diff

Resolving pronoun coreference requires knowledge support, especially for particular domains (e.g., medicine). In this paper, we explore how to leverage different types of knowledge to better resolve pronoun coreference with a neural model. To ensure the generalization ability of our model, we directly incorporate knowledge in the format of triplets, which is

In this article we show that the only 2-step nilpotent Lie groups which carry a non-degenerate left invariant Killing-Yano 2-form are the complex Lie groups. In the case of 2-step nilpotent complex Lie groups arising from connected graphs, we prove that the space of left invariant Killing-Yano 2-forms is one-dimensional.

Let $α$ and $β$ be real numbers such that $0\le α<β+1$, $β\le 2 α$. We show that, among all smooth sets $Ω$ in $\mathbb{R} ^2_+$ with fixed weighted measure $\iint_{Ω} y^β dxdy$, the weighted perimeter $\int_{\parti

We map the spectrum of $1\to 2$ parton splittings inside a medium characterized by a transport coefficient $\hat q$ onto the kinematical Lund plane, taking into account the finite formation time of the process. We discuss the distinct regimes arising in this map for in-medium splittings, pointing out the close correspondence to a semi-classical description i

Helicity, as one of only two inviscid invariants in three-dimensional turbulence, plays an important role in the generation and evolution of turbulence. From the traditional viewpoint, there exists only one channel of helicity cascade similar to that of kinetic energy cascade.

It is generally accepted that consistent coupling to quantum gravity implies that any low energy free parameter is in reality the vacuum expectation value of some local quantum field.

In this paper, we propose a discretization of the multi-dimensional stationary compressible Navier-Stokes equations combining finite element and finite volume techniques.

Even though we know that physical observations are frame independent, the frame dependence of cosmological perturbations is relatively subtle and has led to confusion in the past. In this paper we show that while the (unobservable) matter power spectrum is frame dependent, the observable number counts are not. We shall also determine how the frame dependence

In this article we will prove the global existence of a type of wave-Klein-Gordon system in $2+1$ spacetime dimension. Some technical tools such as conformal energy estimate on hyperboloid, normal form transform on Klein-Gordon equations will be adapted to this $2+1$ dimensional case.

In recent years, it has been pointed out that the maximum accelerating gradient of a superconducting RF cavity can be increased by coating the inner surface of the cavity with a multilayer thin-film structure consisting of alternating insulating and superconducting layers. In this structure, the principal parameter that limits the performance of the cavity i

Keeping up to date on emerging entities that appear every day is indispensable for various applications, such as social-trend analysis and marketing research. Previous studies have attempted to detect unseen entities that are not registered in a particular knowledge base as emerging entities and consequently find non-emerging entities since the absence of en

Various theoretical studies have been carried out to infer relevant protein-protein interactions among pathogens and their hosts. Such studies are generally based on preferential attachment of bacteria / virus to their human receptor homologs. We have analyzed 17 pathogenic species mainly belonging to bacterial and viral pathogenic classes, with the aim to i

Radar sensors provide a unique method for executing environmental perception tasks towards autonomous driving. Especially their capability to perform well in adverse weather conditions often makes them superior to other sensors such as cameras or lidar. Nevertheless, the high sparsity and low dimensionality of the commonly used detection data level is a majo

This paper discusses properties of the Higson corona by means of a quotient on coarse ultrafilters on a proper metric space. We use this description to show that the corona functor is faithful. This study provides a Künneth formula for twisted coarse cohomology. We obtain the Gromov boundary of a hyperbolic proper geodesic metric space as a quotient of its H

We obtain a novel exact analytical solution to Einstein-Maxwell-scalar gravity with negative cosmological constant in (2+1)-dimensions. The scalar field is minimally coupled to gravity and electromagnetism by the metric ansatz. On the one hand, we first find analytical results for the real part of quasinormal mode spectrum of a rotating hairy Bañados-Teitelb

A non-reciprocal quantum ring, where one arm of the ring contains the Rashba spin-orbit interaction but not in the other arm, is found to posses very unique electronic properties. In this ring the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations are totally absent. That is because in a magnetic field the electron stays in the non-Rashba arm, while it resides in the Rashba arm for

There has been rapid progress recently on the application of deep networks to the solution of partial differential equations, collectively labelled as Physics Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). In this paper, we develop Physics Informed Extreme Learning Machine (PIELM), a rapid version of PINNs which can be applied to stationary and time dependent linear part

Bimodal cellular poly(methyl methacrylate) with micron and nano sized (300 to 500 nm) cells with up to 5 weight percent of sepiolite nanoparticles and porosity from 50 weight percent to 75 weight percent are produced by solid state foaming. Uniaxial compression tests are performed to measure the effect of sepiolite concentration on the elastic modulus and th
