    Let G be a connected split reductive p-adic Lie group. This paper can be seen as a continuation of [12] and is about the construction of locally analytic G-representations which do not lie in the principal series. Here we consider locally analytic representations which are induced by Whittaker modules of the attached Lie algebra. We prove that they are inadm

    In this work, we investigate the regularization mechanisms of the Schr\"odinger equation with a spatial potential $$ i\partial_t u+\Delta u+\eta u =0, $$ where $\eta$ denotes a given spatial potential. The regularity of solutions constitutes one of the central problems in the theory of dispersive equations. Recent works \cite{Bai-Lian-Wu-2024, M-Wu-Z24} have

    Soil physics models have long relied on simplifying assumptions to represent complex processes, yet such assumptions can strongly bias model predictions. Here, we propose a paradigm-shifting differentiable hybrid modeling (DHM) framework that instead of simplifying the unknown, learns it from data. As a proof of concept, we apply the hybrid approach to the c

    Self-similarity, where observables at different length scales exhibit similar behavior, is ubiquitous in natural systems. Such systems are typically characterized by power-law correlations and universality, and are studied using the powerful framework of the renormalization group (RG). Intriguingly, power laws and weak forms of universality also pervade real

    A correlation between the symmetry of NMR spectra, including higher-order spectra, and the properties of the spin system has been established. It is shown that for a spectrum to be symmetric about the mid-resonance frequency ({\nu}0), two conditions must be satisfied: the resonant frequencies of the spins must be symmetrically positioned about {\nu}0, and th

    We propose a method for variable selection in the intensity function of spatial point processes that combines sparsity-promoting estimation with noise-robust model selection. As high-resolution spatial data becomes increasingly available through remote sensing and automated image analysis, identifying spatial covariates that influence the localization of eve

    Ergotropy provides a fundamental measure of the extractable work from a quantum system and, consequently, of the maximal useful energy, or charge, stored within it. Understanding how this quantity can be manipulated and transformed efficiently is crucial for advancing quantum energy management technologies. Here, we introduce and formalize the concepts of is

    In task and motion planning, high-level task planning is done over an abstraction of the world to enable efficient search in long-horizon robotics problems. However, the feasibility of these task-level plans relies on the downward refinability of the abstraction into continuous motion. When a domain's refinability is poor, task-level plans that appear va

    Recent observations suggest that planetary engulfment by a giant star may produce radiation that resembles subluminous red novae. We present three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of the interaction between an eccentric $5 \,M_J$ giant planet and its $1\,M_\odot$ red-giant host star. The planet's pericenter is initially $60\%$ of the stellar radius and

    We consider the problem of model reduction for Markovian quantum systems whose dynamics are described by a time-dependent Lindblad generator -- notably, as arising in the presence of external control. Our approach, which builds upon Krylov operator subspaces and operator-algebraic techniques introduced for time-independent generators, returns a reduced model

    Stacking two-dimensional (2D) layered materials offers a powerful platform to engineer electronic and magnetic states. In general, the resulting states, such as Moir\'e magnetism, have a periodicity at the length scale of the Moir\'e unit cell. Here, we report a new type of magnetism -- dubbed a super-Moir\'e magnetic state -- which is characterized by long-

    Recently proposed generative models for discrete data, such as Masked Diffusion Models (MDMs), exploit conditional independence approximations to reduce the computational cost of popular Auto-Regressive Models (ARMs), at the price of some bias in the sampling distribution. We study the resulting computation-vs-accuracy trade-off, providing general error boun

    Negatively charged silicon vacancy centers (SiV$^-$) in diamond exhibit excellent spin coherence and optical properties, making them promising candidates for quantum technologies. However, the strain-induced inhomogeneous distribution of optical transition frequencies poses a challenge for scalability. We demonstrate electrical tuning of the SiV$^-$ center z

    Uncovering hidden graph structures underlying real-world data is a critical challenge with broad applications across scientific domains. Recently, transformer-based models leveraging the attention mechanism have demonstrated strong empirical success in capturing complex dependencies within graphs. However, the theoretical understanding of their training dyna

    The Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma is a fundamental result in dimensionality reduction, ensuring that any finite set $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ can be embedded into a lower-dimensional space $\mathbb{R}^k$ while approximately preserving all pairwise Euclidean distances. In recent years, embeddings that preserve Euclidean distances when measured via the $\e

    Tidal interactions influence the orbital motions of binary star systems and extrasolar planets alike. Tides also affect stellar and planetary rotation rates. We demonstrate that in addition to altering spin synchronization and pseudosynchronization, tidally driven inertial waves in the convective envelopes of low-mass stars and gas giant planets can enhance

    In this work, we investigate the following Schr\"odinger equation with a spatial potential \begin{align*} i\partial_t u+\partial_x^2 u+\eta u=0, \end{align*} where $\eta$ is a given spatial potential (including the delta potential and $|x|^{-\gamma}$-potential). Our goal is to provide the regularization mechanism of this model when the potential $\eta\in L_x

    We investigate the emergence of quantum spin liquid phases in pyrochlore oxides with non-Kramers ions, in which structural randomness effectively acts as a transverse field, introducing quantum fluctuations on top of the spin ice manifold. This is contrary to the naive expectation that disorder favors phases with short-range entanglement by adjusting the spi

    We quantify the gas flows from a scale of up to several parsecs down to the sub-parsec scale along filamentary structures in the three high-mass star-forming regions G75.78, IRAS21078+5211 and NGC7538 with data obtained from the IRAM 30 m telescope. The analysis is carried out using the surface density derived from 1.2 mm continuum emission and velocity diff

    We observe and model spin currents arising from chirality and effective spin-exchange interactions in a weakly interacting $^6$Li Fermi gas. Chirality is introduced by a static displacement between the center of the trapped atoms and the center of an applied magnetic bowl, which produces left- or right-handed spatially varying spin rotation. Spin current is

    Measurement technology employing optical interference phenomena such as a fringe pattern or frequency shift has been evolving for more than a century. The systems are being designed better, and their components are being built better. But the major components themselves hardly change. Most modern interferometers rely on the same conventional set of component

    Non-axisymmetric, flow-driven instabilities in the incompressible Hall-MHD model are studied in a differentially rotating cylindrical plasma. It is found that in the Hall-MHD regime, both whistler waves and ion-cyclotron waves can extract energy from the flow shear, resulting in two distinct branches of global instability. The non-axisymmetric whistler modes

    Many rare diseases offer limited established treatment options, leading patients to switch therapies when new medications emerge. To analyze the impact of such treatment switches within the low sample size limitations of rare disease trials, it is important to use all available data sources. This, however, is complicated when usage of measurement instruments

    We compare modulator designs on thick-film and thin-film silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates based on the carrier-depletion effect. This effect exhibits a lower junction capacitance as compared to its injection counterparts, leading to a higher electro-optic bandwidth, although the effective refractive index change is low. In this work, commercially availa

    Exploration is fundamental to reinforcement learning (RL), as it determines how effectively an agent discovers and exploits the underlying structure of its environment to achieve optimal performance. Existing exploration methods generally fall into two categories: active exploration and passive exploration. The former introduces stochasticity into the policy

    Zero Reinforcement Learning (Zero-RL) has proven to be an effective approach for enhancing the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) by directly applying reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards on pretrained models, without the need for a supervised fine-tuning phase. However, current research on zero-RL primarily focuses on domains w

    In this paper we show that Baker domains of transcendental skew products can either bulge or not, depending on the higher order terms. This is in contrast to polynomial skew products where all Fatou components with bounded orbits of an invariant attracting fiber do bulge.

    A permutation statistic is substring-compatible if its value on a permutation determines its value on every substring of that permutation. We construct the substring coalgebra of such a statistic, an analog of the shuffle algebra of a shuffle-compatible statistic introduced by Gessel and Zhuang. Furthermore, we show that for substring-compatible statistics t

    We consider the problem of density estimation in the context of multiscale Langevin diffusion processes, where a single-scale homogenized surrogate model can be derived. In particular, our aim is to learn the density of the invariant measure of the homogenized dynamics from a continuous-time trajectory generated by the full multiscale system. We propose a sp

    The stereotypical reaching motion of the octopus arm has drawn growing attention for its efficient control of a highly deformable body. Previous studies suggest that its characteristic bend propagation may share underlying principles with the dynamics of a whip.

    In this paper, we address the problem of giving names to predicates in logic rules using Large Language Models (LLMs). In the context of Inductive Logic Programming, various rule generation methods produce rules containing unnamed predicates, with Predicate Invention being a key example. This hinders the readability, interpretability, and reusability of the

    We present for the first time the complete three-loop mixed electroweak-QCD ($\mathcal{O}(\alpha\alpha_s)$) corrections for the decay channel $H \to \gamma\gamma$, by implementing three different on-shell $\alpha$ schemes in computing the electroweak correction. Our studies indicate that the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s)$ correction amounts to approximately $1.7\%$

    We study the convergence of off-policy TD(0) with linear function approximation when used to approximate the expected discounted reward in a Markov chain. It is well known that the combination of off-policy learning and function approximation can lead to divergence of the algorithm. Existing results for this setting modify the algorithm, for instance by rewe

    We present a vector-based method to balance chemical reactions. The algorithm builds candidates in a deterministic way, removes duplicates, and always prints coefficients in the lowest whole-number form. For redox cases, electrons and protons/hydroxide are treated explicitly, so both mass and charge are balanced. We also outline the basic principles of the v

    The astrophysical origin of the rapid neutron-capture process (r-process), which produces about half of the elements heavier than iron, remains uncertain. The oldest, most metal-poor stars preserve the chemical signatures of early nucleosynthesis events and can reveal the nature of the r-process sites. We present a homogeneous chemical abundance analysis of

    We investigate how matter density distributions affect thin-wall bubble formation in the asymmetron mechanism, a scalar-tensor theory with a universal coupling to matter and explicit symmetry-breaking, and analyse the stability of its metastable state. We show that the screening mechanism of the asymmetron inside dense objects induces a surface tension assoc

    This short review discusses recent applications of Reinforcement Learning (RL) techniques to the flavor problem in particle physics. Traditional approaches to fermion masses and mixing often rely on extensions of the Standard Model based on horizontal symmetries, but the vast landscape of possible models makes systematic exploration infeasible. Recent works

    We consider a diffusion risk model where dividends are paid at rate $U(t) \in [0, u_0]$. We are interested in maximising the dividend payments under a drawdown constraint, that is, we penalise a drawdown size larger than a level $d > 0$. We show that the optimal dividend rate $U(t)$ is either zero or the maximal rate $u_0$ and determine the optimal strategy.

    Query rewriting is a fundamental technique in information retrieval (IR). It typically employs the retrieval result as relevance feedback to refine the query and thereby addresses the vocabulary mismatch between user queries and relevant documents.

    Instrumental goals such as resource acquisition, power-seeking, and self-preservation are key to contemporary AI alignment research, yet the phenomenon's ontology remains under-theorised. This article develops an ontological account of instrumental goals and draws out governance-relevant distinctions for advanced AI systems. After systematising the dominant

    We experimentally investigate the influence of surfactant adsorption kinetics on cavity dynamics during the rapid formation of interfaces. For this purpose, we use a submillimeter jet impacting onto a surfactant-laden liquid pool much larger than the jet dimensions. Cavity retraction and closure occur on a submillisecond timescale, posing a stringent test of

    Long-term numerical relativity (NR) simulations of binary black hole (BBH) systems in the Spectral Einstein Code (SpEC) code exhibit an unexpected exponential drift of the center-of-mass (CoM) away from the simulation's origin. In our work, we analyze this phenomenon and demonstrate that it is not a physical effect but rather a manifestation of a gauge artif

    In this paper, we consider a dynamic radio frequency sensing system aiming to spatially track multiple targets over time. We develop a conditional denoising diffusion probabilistic model (C-DDPM)-assisted framework that learns the temporal evolution of target parameters by leveraging the noisy echo observations as conditioning features. The proposed framewor

    Underwater infrastructure requires frequent inspection and maintenance due to harsh marine conditions. Current reliance on human divers or remotely operated vehicles is limited by perceptual and operational challenges, especially around complex structures or in turbid water. Enhancing the spatial awareness of underwater vehicles is key to reducing piloting r

    We establish the existence of non-constant periodic solutions to the Lorentz force equation, where no scalar potential is needed to induce the electromagnetic field. Our results extend to cases where a possibly singular scalar potential is present, although the vector potential assumes a leading role. The approach is based on minimizing the action functional

    We study the processes $\chi_{bJ}\,\omega$ and $\chi_{bJ}\,(\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0)_{\rm non-\omega}$ ($J$ = 0, 1, 2) at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ from 10.73 to 11.02 GeV using a $142.5\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider; and at $\sqrt{s}\sim10.75$ GeV using a $19.8\,\mathrm{fb}

    We study vorticity-induced effects arising from the Wess-Zumino-Witten terms for Nambu-Goldstone modes in chiral perturbation theory. We first provide an alternative derivation of the Wess-Zumino-Witten terms in the presence of external vector, axial-vector, and pseudoscalar fields using a derivative expansion of the fermion determinant. We then employ the p

    Rapid climate change and other disturbances in alpine ecosystems demand frequent habitat monitoring, yet manual mapping remains prohibitively expensive for the required temporal resolution. We employ deep learning for change detection using long-term alpine habitat data from Gesaeuse National Park, Austria, addressing a major gap in applying geospatial found

    Ensuring that classifiers are well-calibrated, i.e., their predictions align with observed frequencies, is a minimal and fundamental requirement for classifiers to be viewed as trustworthy. Existing methods for assessing multiclass calibration often focus on specific aspects associated with prediction (e.g., top-class confidence, class-wise calibration) or u

    We consider a stochastic multi-armed bandit problem with i.i.d. rewards where the expected reward function is multimodal with at most m modes. We propose the first known computationally tractable algorithm for computing the solution to the Graves-Lai optimization problem, which in turn enables the implementation of asymptotically optimal algorithms for this
