    In this work, we provide a comprehensive set of differential cross-section distributions for photon + di-jet production in proton-proton collisions with next-to-next-to-leading order precision in massless QCD. The event selection corresponds to recent measurements by the ATLAS collaboration. We observe an improved description of data in comparison to lower-o

    We investigate the use of Quantum Neural Networks for discovering and implementing quantum error-correcting codes. Our research showcases the efficacy of Quantum Neural Networks through the successful implementation of the Bit-Flip quantum error-correcting code using a Quantum Autoencoder, effectively correcting bit-flip errors in arbitrary logical qubit sta

    The self-interacting dark matter can affect various cosmological processes. Such interactions can be number conserving (\emph{e.g.} $2 \rightarrow 2$) or number violating (\emph{e.g.} $3 \rightarrow 2,\,4 \rightarrow 2$ etc.). The latter processes where three (or more) dark matter particles undergo self-annihilation/scattering to produce less number of dark

    To describe long-range behaviour of one particle removed from a few- or a many-body system, a hyperspherical cluster model has been developed. It has been applied to the ground and first excited states of helium drops with five, six, eight and ten atoms interacting via a two-body soft gaussian potential. Convergence of the hyperspherical cluster harmonics ex

    A correspondence is established between the dynamics of the two-vortex system and the non-commutative Landau problem (NCLP) in its sub- (non-chiral), super- (chiral) and critical phases. As a result, a trivial permutation symmetry of the point vortices induces a weak-strong coupling duality in the NCLP. We show that quantum two-vortex systems with non-zero t

    We show that the problem of recovering the topology and admittance of an electrical network from power and voltage data at all vertices is often ill-posed, and sometimes it even has multiple solutions. We reformulate the problem to seek for a sparse network, i.e., with few edges, which fits the data up to a given tolerance. We propose an algorithm to solve t

    Multi-objective portfolio optimisation is a critical problem researched across various fields of study as it achieves the objective of maximising the expected return while minimising the risk of a given portfolio at the same time. However, many studies fail to include realistic constraints in the model, which limits practical trading strategies. This study i

    The integration of the frequency dynamics into Micro-Grid (MG) investment and operational planning problems is vital in ensuring the security of the system in the post-contingency states. However, the task of including transient security constraints in MG planning problems is non-trivial. This is due to the highly non-linear and non-convex nature of the anal

    We consider solutions satisfying the zero Neumann boundary condition and a linearized mean field game equation in $\Omega \times (0,T)$ whose principal coefficients depend on the time and spatial variables with general Hamiltonian, where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in $\Bbb R^d$ and $(0,T)$ is the time interval. We first prove the Lipschitz stability in $\O

    Few-shot learning (FSL) techniques seek to learn the underlying patterns in data using fewer samples, analogous to how humans learn from limited experience. In this limited-data scenario, the challenges associated with deep neural networks, such as shortcut learning and texture bias behaviors, are further exacerbated. Moreover, the significance of addressing

    Spatial control is a core capability in controllable image generation. Advancements in layout-guided image generation have shown promising results on in-distribution (ID) datasets with similar spatial configurations. However, it is unclear how these models perform when facing out-of-distribution (OOD) samples with arbitrary, unseen layouts. In this paper, we

    The remarkable performance of overparameterized deep neural networks (DNNs) must arise from an interplay between network architecture, training algorithms, and structure in the data. To disentangle these three components, we apply a Bayesian picture, based on the functions expressed by a DNN, to supervised learning. The prior over functions is determined by

    We show that pressure applied to twisted WSe$_2$ can enhance the many-body gap and region of stability of a fractional Chern insulator at filling $\nu = 1/3$. Our results are based on exact diagonalization of a continuum model, whose pressure-dependence is obtained through {\it ab initio} methods. We interpret our results in terms of a {\it magic line} in th

    Most state-of-the-art instance segmentation methods rely on large amounts of pixel-precise ground-truth annotations for training, which are expensive to create. Interactive segmentation networks help generate such annotations based on an image and the corresponding user interactions such as clicks. Existing methods for this task can only process a single ins

    This paper considers distributed optimization algorithms, with application in binary classification via distributed support-vector-machines (D-SVM) over multi-agent networks subject to some link nonlinearities. The agents solve a consensus-constraint distributed optimization cooperatively via continuous-time dynamics, while the links are subject to strongly

    We compute explicitly the automorphism and outer automorphism group of all large-type free-of-infinity Artin groups. Our strategy involves reconstructing the associated Deligne complexes in a purely algebraic manner, i.e. in a way that is independent from the choice of standard generators for the groups.

    We establish basic properties of the heat flow on entire holomorphic functions that have order at most 2. We then look specifically at the action of the heat flow on the Gaussian analytic function (GAF). We show that applying the heat flow to a GAF and then rescaling and multiplying by an exponential of a quadratic function gives another GAF. It follows that

    In this thesis, we explore streaming algorithms for approximating constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). The setup is roughly the following: A computer has limited memory space, sees a long "stream" of local constraints on a set of variables, and tries to estimate how many of the constraints may be simultaneously satisfied. The past ten years have seen a n

    We analyze the constraints obtainable from present data using the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) on extensions of the Standard Model with additional electroweak singlet or triplet scalar fields. We compare results obtained using only contributions that are linear in dimension-6 operator coefficients with those obtained including terms quadrati

    The basic reproduction number, $R_0$, is a well-known quantifier of epidemic spread. However, a class of existing methods for estimating $R_0$ from incidence data early in the epidemic can lead to an over-estimation of this quantity. In particular, when fitting deterministic models to estimate the rate of spread, we do not account for the stochastic nature o

    The self-consistent Pauli-Poisswell and Pauli-Darwin equations for 2-spinors are $O(1/c)$ (where $c$ denotes the speed of light) semi-relativistic approximations of the Dirac-Maxwell equation for 4-spinors coupled to the self-consistent electromagnetic fields generated by the charge and current densities of a fast moving electric charge. They consist of a ve

    Missing values are a notable challenge when analysing mass spectrometry-based proteomics data. While the field is still actively debating on the best practices, the challenge increased with the emergence of mass spectrometry-based single-cell proteomics and the dramatic increase in missing values. A popular approach to deal with missing values is to perform

    Due to the limitations of inadequate Whole-Slide Image (WSI) samples with weak labels, pseudo-bag-based multiple instance learning (MIL) appears as a vibrant prospect in WSI classification. However, the pseudo-bag dividing scheme, often crucial for classification performance, is still an open topic worth exploring. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel sche

    Let $G$ be a multigraph. A subset $F$ of $E(G)$ is an edge cover of $G$ if every vertex of $G$ is incident to an edge of $F$. The cover index, $\xi(G)$, is the largest number of edge covers into which the edges of $G$ can be partitioned. Clearly $\xi(G) \le \delta(G)$, the minimum degree of $G$. For $U\subseteq V(G)$, denote by $E^+(U)$ the set of edges inci

    We study the existence of finite characterisations for modal formulas. A finite characterisation of a modal formula $\varphi$ is a finite collection of positive and negative examples that distinguishes $\varphi$ from every other, non-equivalent modal formula, where an example is a finite pointed Kripke structure. This definition can be restricted to specific

    Humans possess the capacity to reason about the future based on a sparse collection of visual cues acquired over time. In order to emulate this ability, we introduce a novel task called Anticipation Captioning, which generates a caption for an unseen oracle image using a sparsely temporally-ordered set of images. To tackle this new task, we propose a model c

    Moment models with suitable closure can lead to accurate and computationally efficient solvers for particle transport. Hence, we propose a new asymptotic preserving scheme for the M1 model of linear transport that works uniformly for any Knudsen number. Our idea is to apply the M1 closure at the numerical level to an existing asymptotic preserving scheme for

    Recent works have shown that large models pretrained on common visual learning tasks can provide useful representations for a wide range of specialized perception problems, as well as a variety of robotic manipulation tasks. While prior work on robotic manipulation has predominantly used frozen pretrained features, we demonstrate that in robotics this approa

    Measurements are a vital part of any quantum computation, whether as a final step to retrieve results, as an intermediate step to inform subsequent operations, or as part of the computation itself (as in measurement-based quantum computing). However, measurements, like any aspect of a quantum system, are highly error-prone and difficult to model. In this pap

    Leonida Tonelli devised an interesting and efficient method to introduce the Lebesgue integral. The details of this method can only be found in the original Tonelli paper and in an old italian course and solely for the case of the functions of one variable. We believe that this method is worth knowing and here we present a complete account for functions of e

    Code-generating large language models translate natural language into code. However, only a small portion of the infinite space of naturalistic utterances is effective at guiding code generation. For non-expert end-user programmers, learning this is the challenge of abstraction matching. We examine this challenge in the specific context of data analysis in s

    Machine learning algorithms play an important role in a variety of important decision-making processes, including targeted advertisement displays, home loan approvals, and criminal behavior predictions. Given the far-reaching impact of these algorithms, it is crucial that they operate fairly, free from bias or prejudice towards certain groups in the populati

    For square-integrable genuine Iwahori-spherical representations of central covers, we verify the Hiraga--Ichino--Ikeda formula for their formal degrees. We also compute the Whittaker dimensions of these representations, when their associated modules over the genuine Iwahori--Hecke algebra are one-dimensional.

    Large language models have become ubiquitous in modern life, finding applications in various domains such as natural language processing, language translation, and speech recognition. Recently, a breakthrough work [Zhao, Panigrahi, Ge, and Arora Arxiv 2023] explains the attention model from probabilistic context-free grammar (PCFG). One of the central comput

    The Bardeen and Hayward spacetimes are here considered as standard configurations of spherically symmetric regular black holes. Assuming the thermodynamics of such objects to be analogous to standard black holes, we compute the island formula in the regime of small topological charge and large vacuum energy, respectively for Bardeen and Hayward spacetimes.

    Biochemical reaction networks are an amalgamation of reactions where each reaction represents the interaction of different species. Generally, these networks exhibit a multi-scale behavior caused by the high variability in reaction rates and abundances of species. The so-called jump-diffusion approximation is a valuable tool in the modeling of such systems.

    Age is an important variable to describe the expected brain's anatomy status across the normal aging trajectory. The deviation from that normative aging trajectory may provide some insights into neurological diseases. In neuroimaging, predicted brain age is widely used to analyze different diseases. However, using only the brain age gap information (\ie the

    Quantum correlations, both spatial and temporal, are the central pillars of quantum mechanics. Over the last two decades, a big breakthrough in quantum physics is its complex extension to the non-Hermitian realm, and dizzying varieties of novel phenomena and applications beyond the Hermitian framework have been uncovered. However, unique features of non-Herm

    Given an isometry invariant valuation on a complex space form we compute its value on the tubes of sufficiently small radii around a set of positive reach. This generalizes classical formulas of Weyl, Gray and others about the volume of tubes. We also develop a general framework on tube formulas for valuations in riemannian manifolds.

    This paper assesses the accuracy, reliability and bias of the Large Language Model (LLM) ChatGPT-4 on the text analysis task of classifying the political affiliation of a Twitter poster based on the content of a tweet. The LLM is compared to manual annotation by both expert classifiers and crowd workers, generally considered the gold standard for such tasks.

    Solving the Anderson impurity model typically involves a two-step process, where one first calculates the ground state of the Hamiltonian, and then computes its dynamical properties to obtain the Green's function. Here we propose a hybrid classical/quantum algorithm where the first step is performed using a classical computer to obtain the tensor network gro

    Electromagnetic scattering in moving structures is a fundamental topic in physics and engineering. Yet, no general numerical solution to related problems has been reported to date. We introduce here a generalized FDTD scheme to remedy this deficiency. That scheme is an extension of the FDTD standard Yee cell and stencil that includes not only the usual, phys
