    An approach will be proposed to determine the existence of a limit distribution of additive arithmetic functions in this work. It is based on assertions that will be proven in this work and on the properties of Dirichlet convolution and M\"obius inversion. Based on this approach, formulas will be obtained for finding the mean and variance for the limit distr

    We propose the representation principle to study physical systems with a given symmetry. In the context of symmetry enriched topological orders, we give the appropriate representation category, the category of SET orders, which include SPT orders and symmetry breaking orders as special cases. For fusion n-category symmetries, we show that the category of SET

    Active galactic nucleus (AGN) driven outflows can have a significant impact on the evolution of the host galaxy. In this work, we compare the properties of galaxies that hosts AGNs with and without outflows.

    For a given collection $\mathcal{G} = (G_1,\dots, G_k)$ of graphs on a common vertex set $V$, which we call a \emph{graph system}, a graph $H$ on a vertex set $V(H) \subseteq V$ is called a \emph{rainbow subgraph} of $\mathcal{G}$ if there exists an injective function $\psi:E(H) \rightarrow [k]$ such that $e \in G_{\psi(e)}$ for each $e\in E(H)$. The maximum

    Measurements in macrodiversity situations have been performed. Crosscorrelation of shadowing terms between two basestations and a mobile have been computed. It results that high cross-correlation coefficients may appear in practice. Afterwards, we propose a simple shadowing model, integrating both its autocorrelation and cross-correlation properties. Eventua

    We propose a new model for the forecasting of both the implied volatility surfaces and the underlying asset price. In the spirit of Guyon and Lekeufack (2023) who are interested in the dependence of volatility indices (e.g. the VIX) on the paths of the associated equity indices (e.g. the S\&P 500), we first study how vanilla options implied volatility can be

    The unique biosignature of life on Earth is the homochirality of organic compounds such as amino acids, proteins, and sugars. High-energy spin-polarized (spin-up or spin-down) electrons (SPEs) from the $\beta$ decay of radioactive nuclei were proposed as a source of symmetry breaking, leading to homochirality; however, their exact role is much debated.

    Let $B=(B_t)_{t\geq 0}$ be a standard Brownian motion. The main objective is to find a uniform (in time) control of the modulus of continuity of $B$ in the spirit of what appears in (Kurtz, 1978). More precisely, it involves the control of the exponential moments of the random variable $\sup_{0\leq s\leq t} |B_t-B_s|/w(t,|t-s|)$ for a suitable function $w$.

    Suppose that $1<p\leq\infty$ and $\varphi\in L^{p}(\mathbb{B}^{n},\mathbb{R}^{n}).$ In this note, we use H\"{o}lder inequality and some basic properties of hypergeometric functions to establish the sharp constant $C_{p}$ and function $C_{p}(x)$ in the following inequalities $$|u(x)|\leq \frac{C_{p}}{(1-|x|^{2})^{(n-1)/p}}\cdot||\varphi||_{L^{p}}$$ and $$|u(x

    We investigate the collisions of Majorana zero modes, which are presented as inter-soliton collisional events in fermionic superfluids with spin-orbit coupling. Our results demonstrate that, the zero energy splitting, induced by the overlapping of inter-soliton Majorana wave-functions upon collision, generates an effective repulsive force for Majorana states

    In Weighted Model Counting (WMC), we assign weights to literals and compute the sum of the weights of the models of a given propositional formula where the weight of an assignment is the product of the weights of its literals. The current WMC solvers work on Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) formulas. However, CNF is not a natural representation for human-being

    We give an alternative proof of a result on the uniform overlap of the algebraic sums of the sets arising from a decomposition of a neighborhood of a circular cone in $\Bbb R^3$. It is known that the uniform overlap result can be applied to make a unified approach for the proofs of a theorem on the maximal Bochner-Riesz operator on $\Bbb R^2$ and a theorem o

    The main purpose of this paper is to attract the attention of researchers working in the field of physiological processes, towards crucial events. Crucial events are often confused with extreme events thereby generating the misleading impression that their treatment should be based on quantum mechanical formalism. We show that crucial events are invisible an

    In this paper, we prove super-polynomial lower bounds for the model of \emph{sum of ordered set-multilinear algebraic branching programs}, each with a possibly different ordering ($\sum \mathsf{smABP}$). Specifically, we give an explicit $nd$-variate polynomial of degree $d$ such that any $\sum \mathsf{smABP}$ computing it must have size $n^{\omega(1)}$ for

    Low Earth orbit (LEO) mega-constellations rely on inter-satellite links (ISLs) to provide global connectivity. We note that in addition to the general constellation parameters, the ISL spanning patterns are also greatly influence the final network structure and thus the network performance. In this work, we formulate the ISL spanning patterns, apply differen

    Although the Transformer is currently the best-performing architecture in the homogeneous configuration (self-attention only) in Neural Machine Translation, many State-of-the-Art models in Natural Language Processing are made of a combination of different Deep Learning approaches. However, these models often focus on combining a couple of techniques only and

    We develop quantum algorithms for pricing Asian and barrier options under the Heston model, a popular stochastic volatility model, and estimate their costs, in terms of T-count, T-depth and number of logical qubits, on instances under typical market conditions. These algorithms are based on combining well-established numerical methods for stochastic differen

    We generalize the notion of Einstein-Rosen bridge by defining it as a space-like connection between two universes with regions of asymptotically minkowskian space-time infinities. The corresponding symmetry and asymmetry properties of the generalized Einstein-Rosen bridge are considered at the cases of Reissner-Nordstr\"om and Kerr metrics. We elucidate the

    Automated radiology report generation has the potential to improve radiology reporting and alleviate the workload of radiologists. However, the medical report generation task poses unique challenges due to the limited availability of medical data and the presence of data bias. To maximize the utility of available data and reduce data bias, we propose MSCL (M

    In existing restoration-oriented Video Frame Interpolation (VFI) approaches, the motion estimation between neighboring frames plays a crucial role. However, the estimation accuracy in existing methods remains a challenge, primarily due to the inherent ambiguity in identifying corresponding areas in adjacent frames for interpolation. Therefore, enhancing accu

    Recent studies have pointed out that natural language processing (NLP) models are vulnerable to backdoor attacks. A backdoored model produces normal outputs on the clean samples while performing improperly on the texts with triggers that the adversary injects. However, previous studies on textual backdoor attack pay little attention to stealthiness. Moreover

    The environmental conservation issue has led consumers to rethink the products they purchase. Nowadays, many consumers are willing to pay more for products that genuinely adhere to environmental standards to support the environment. Consequently, concepts like green marketing have gradually infiltrated marketing literature, making environmental consideration

    Constraint Optimization Problems (COP) pose intricate challenges in combinatorial problems usually addressed through Branch and Bound (B\&B) methods, which involve maintaining priority queues and iteratively selecting branches to search for solutions. However, conventional approaches take a considerable amount of time to find optimal solutions, and it is als

    Designing better deep networks and better reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms are both important for deep RL. This work studies the former. Specifically, the Perception and Decision-making Interleaving Transformer (PDiT) network is proposed, which cascades two Transformers in a very natural way: the perceiving one focuses on \emph{the environmental percep
