    Angular equivalence of norms is introduced by Kikianty and Sinnamon (2017) and is a stronger notion than the usual topological equivalence. Given two angularly equivalent norms, if one norm has a certain geometrical property, e.g. uniform convexity, then the other norm also possesses such a property. In this paper, we show further results in this direction,

    Standard deep learning algorithms are implemented using floating-point real numbers. This presents an obstacle for implementing them on low-end devices which may not have dedicated floating-point units (FPUs). As a result, researchers in tinyML have considered machine learning algorithms that can train and run a deep neural network (DNN) on a low-end device

    It is proven that the only incompressible Euler fluid flows with fixed straight streamlines are those generated by the normal lines to a round sphere, a circular cylinder or a flat plane, the fluid flow being that of a point source, a line source or a plane source at infinity, respectively. The proof uses the local differential geometry of oriented line cong

    We examine the dynamics of noncommutative instantons of instanton number $2$ and commutative instantons of instanton number $3$ in 5d Super Yang Mills theory. We begin by detailing the construction of the 1/4-BPS instanton solutions, their moduli space, and the moduli space potential using an explicit parametrisation of the moduli space coordinates in terms

    We estimate the amount of $^{37}$Ar produced in natural xenon via cosmic ray-induced spallation, an inevitable consequence of the transportation and storage of xenon on the Earth's surface. We then calculate the resulting $^{37}$Ar concentration in a 10-tonne payload~(similar to that of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment) assuming a representative schedule of xenon p

    The technetium-rich (Tc-rich) M stars reported in the literature (Little-Marenin & Little (1979); Uttenthaler et al. (2013)) are puzzling objects since no isotope of technetium has a half-life longer than a few million years, and 99Tc, the longest-lived isotope along the s-process path, is expected to be detected only in thermally-pulsing stars enriched with

    The replacement of analog meters with smart meters is costly, laborious, and far from complete in developing countries. The Energy Company of Parana (Copel) (Brazil) performs more than 4 million meter readings (almost entirely of non-smart devices) per month, and we estimate that 850 thousand of them are from dial meters. Therefore, an image-based automatic

    We reinvestigate the classic example of the chiral anomaly in (1+1) dimensional spacetime. By reviewing the derivation of charge conservation using the semiclassical Boltzmann equation, we show that chiral anomalies could emerge in (1+1) dimensions without Berry curvature corrections to the kinetic theory. The pivotal step depends only on the asymptotic beha

    The quadratic Zeeman shift coefficient of 3P0 clock state for strontium is determined in theory and experiment. In theory, we derived the expression of the quadratic Zeeman shift of 3P0 clock state for 88Sr and 87Sr in the weak-magnetic-field approximation. By using the multi-configuration Dirac-Hartree-Fock theory, the quadratic Zeeman shift coefficients we

    This paper treats the stationary Stokes problem in exterior domain of $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Navier slip boundary condition. The behavior at infinity of the data and the solution are determined by setting the problem in $L^p$-spaces, for $p> 2$, with weights. The main results are the existence and uniqueness of strong solutions of the corresponding system.

    In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for the Camassa-Holm equation on the real line. By presenting a new construction of initial data, we show that the solution map in the smaller space $B_{p,1}^{1}\cap C^{0,1}$ with $p\in(2,\infty]$ is discontinuous at origin. More precisely, $u_0\in B_{p,1}^{1}\cap C^{0,1}$ can guarantee that the Camassa-Holm equatio

    Developing scalable solutions for training Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) for link prediction tasks is challenging due to the high data dependencies which entail high computational cost and huge memory footprint. We propose a new method for scaling training of knowledge graph embedding models for link prediction to address these challenges. Towards this end, w

    Accurate estimation of DL CSI is required to achieve high spectrum and energy efficiency in massive MIMO systems. Previous works have developed learning-based CSI feedback framework within FDD systems for efficient CSI encoding and recovery with demonstrated benefits. However, downlink pilots for CSI estimation by receiving terminals may occupy excessively l

    Dynamic parallelism on GPUs allows GPU threads to dynamically launch other GPU threads. It is useful in applications with nested parallelism, particularly where the amount of nested parallelism is irregular and cannot be predicted beforehand. However, prior works have shown that dynamic parallelism may impose a high performance penalty when a large number of

    The mass, current coupling, and width of the doubly charmed four-quark meson $T_{cc}^{+}$ are explored by treating it as a hadronic molecule $ M_{cc}^{+}\equiv D^{0}D^{\ast +}$. The mass and current coupling of this molecule are calculated using the QCD two-point sum rule method by including into analysis contributions of various vacuum condensates up to dim

    Herein, minimization of time-averaged age-of-information (AoI) in an energy harvesting (EH) source setting is considered. The EH source opportunistically samples one or multiple processes over discrete time instants and sends the status updates to a sink node over a wireless fading channel. Each time, the EH node decides whether to probe the link quality and

    We study the mass scales in the $SO(10)$ grand unified theory based on the following minimal Higgs representation content: adjoint $45_{\rm H}$, spinor $16_{\rm H}$ and complex vector $10_{\rm H}$, with higher dimensional operators on top of renormalizable interactions. We show that the consistency of the theory requires scalar $W$ and $Z$, scalar quark doub

    State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) system development is data and computation intensive. The optimal design of deep neural networks (DNNs) for these systems often require expert knowledge and empirical evaluation. In this paper, a range of neural architecture search (NAS) techniques are used to automatically learn two types of hyper-paramete

    Long-tailed instance segmentation is a challenging task due to the extreme imbalance of training samples among classes. It causes severe biases of the head classes (with majority samples) against the tailed ones. This renders "how to appropriately define and alleviate the bias" one of the most important issues. Prior works mainly use label distribution or me

    In a modern power system, real-time data on power generation/consumption and its relevant features are stored in various distributed parties, including household meters, transformer stations and external organizations. To fully exploit the underlying patterns of these distributed data for accurate power prediction, federated learning is needed as a collabora

    A set of optimized interpolating operators which are dominantly coupled to each eigenstate of two baryons on the lattice is constructed by the HAL QCD method. To test its validity, we consider heavy dibaryons $\Omega_{3Q}\Omega_{3Q}$ ($Q=s,c$) calculated by (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD simulations with nearly physical pion mass. The optimized two-baryon operator

    Let $f: V(G)\cup E(G)\rightarrow \{1,2,\dots,k\}$ be a non-proper total $k$-coloring of $G$. Define a weight function on total coloring as $$\phi(x)=f(x)+\sum\limits_{e\ni x}f(e)+\sum\limits_{y\in N(x)}f(y),$$ where $N(x)=\{y\in V(G)|xy\in E(G)\}$. If $\phi(x)\neq \phi(y)$ for any edge $xy\in E(G)$, then $f$ is called a neighbor full sum distinguishing total

    Recently, several image segmentation methods that welcome and leverage different types of user assistance have been developed. In these methods, the user inputs can be provided by drawing bounding boxes over image objects, drawing scribbles or planting seeds that help to differentiate between image boundaries or by interactively refining the missegmented ima

    Let $K$ be a type-definable infinite field in an NIP theory. If $K$ has characteristic $p > 0$, then $K$ is Artin-Schreier closed (it has no Artin-Schreier extensions). As a consequence, $p$ does not divide the degree of any finite separable extension of $K$. This generalizes a theorem of Kaplan, Scanlon, and Wagner.
