This paper investigates a dual-polarized reconfigurable intelligent surface (DP-RIS)-empowered symbiotic radio (SR) system with rotatable antennas (RAs). By reconfiguring antenna orientations, RAs can steer their radiation patterns toward desired directions, thereby effectively mitigating the double-fading effect in RIS-assisted...
Most single-channel separators estimate a source by applying a real gain to the mixture in each time-frequency bin. The optimum of that format, which the oracle masks used as bounds do not attain, is the orthogonal projection of the source onto the line spanned by the mixture, its residual set by the angle between them. Locating an...
This paper summarizes the ChinaVoices Challenge 2026, which aims to establish unified task definitions and evaluation conditions for Chinese dialect speech processing and to advance multi-dialect identification and automatic speech recognition. The challenge covers 16 dialect categories and defines two tasks: Chinese Multi-Dialect...
In this study preliminary results on the classification of EEG hyperscanning data acquired using MUSE-S consumer-level EEG headband are presented. Five pairs of subjects were involved and the recording protocol contained three two-person tetris game sessions alternating with relaxation periods. The data were segmented and ten spectral...
This paper proposes StreamWSR, a Streamable neural Waveform-domain model for speech Super-Resolution (SR). By adopting a fully causal architecture with compact frame-level waveform representation, the proposed StreamWSR supports zero-look-ahead streaming inference while avoiding vocoder-based reconstruction and explicit phase...
This paper develops Taylor-informed predictive cost adaptive control (PCAC) for quadrotors with online gravity-trim adaptation. First-, second-, and third-order expansions of the nonlinear dynamics about nominal hover define sparse sampled-data dictionaries for row-wise recursive least-squares identification with variable-rate...
This paper develops a Taylor-informed indirect adaptive predictive control framework for nonlinear sampled-data systems using Jacobian-frozen affine predictors. A finite Taylor expansion approximates the sampled nonlinear dynamics, and recursive least squares (RLS) identifies its polynomial coefficients online. At each sampling...
This paper addresses the stabilization problem for Aw-Rascle-Zhang (ARZ) traffic model in the presence of an arbitrarily large input delay. The linearized ARZ model is a $2 \times 2$ hyperbolic partial differential equation (PDE) system with proximal reflection, which introduces significant analytical challenges when combined with...
In this paper, we introduce generalized Hankel/Toeplitz matrices (GHM/GTM) and the associated generalized Vandermonde decomposition for nonuniform array signal processing and multi-dimensional super-resolution. The proposed framework was discovered from the study of resolution limit theory and extends the classical Hankel/Toeplitz...
A valid control barrier function (CBF) certifies if its represented safe set can be rendered forward invariant, and the sign of its value indicates whether a state is safe or not, but it does not quantify a degree of safety beyond the binary indication. In this paper, we show that among valid CBFs representing the same safe set,...
We consider probability measures on compact subsets of the complex plane arising as limiting distributions of Galois conjugates of certain algebraic integers. These measures are characterized by infinitely many integral inequalities, one for each nonzero integer polynomial. We study a broad family of measures given by particular...
We prove that the set of bounded ratios $\BR(X)$ on a semialgebraic set $X\subset\R^n_{>0}$ is the convex cone of linear forms that are nonnegative on the tropicalization $\trop(X)$. In particular, it is a rational polyhedral convex cone. For $X$ the set of Lorentzian polynomials with fixed M-convex support, it is the dual to the set...
For any link, we define a monodromy map from the motion group of the link to the group of automorphisms of the link's Khovanov homology. The image of this map is the \emph{unoriented monodromy group} of the link. This map allows us to convert results concerning motion groups of links into ones about their Khovanov monodromy. In...
In this paper, we study the combinatorial object $\bar{b}^k_{r,s}(n)$ which counts the overcolored partition $k$-tuples wherein both even and odd parts are colored with $r$ and $s$ colors, respectively. We extend results of Chacon and Sellers for several families of $r,s$ and $k$. We also establish divisibility properties for...
We identify non-Gaussian corrections to the central limit theorem for the global and local laws, i.e. for Stieltjes transform of the empirical eigenvalue distribution of a large real symmetric or complex Hermitian Wigner matrix. We find that in the real case the rate of convergence in this CLT is substantially slower than in the...
We prove two anisotropic halfspace theorems for uniformly elliptic parametric integrands. In $\mathbb{R}^3$, every connected smooth properly embedded boundaryless anisotropic minimal surface for an even integrand is a plane if it lies in a halfspace. The proof replaces the catenoid in the Hoffman--Meeks argument by a strict exterior...
The localized electromechanical phase transition in dielectric elastomers involves complex moving boundaries and severe electrostatic fringe fields driven by high-curvature interfaces. Traditional phenomenological models fundamentally underestimate the configurational forces by completely ignoring the in-plane electric field...
A second maximal subgroup of a finite group $G$ is a subgroup $H$ that is maximal in every maximal overgroup of $H$ in $G$. We prove that every maximal subgroup of a prime-index subgroup of a finite group is a second maximal subgroup.
We develop a geometric framework for conservative mechanical systems modeled on conic pseudo-Finslerian manifolds, extending classical Riemannian and semi-Riemannian mechanics to anisotropic geometries. In this setting, we define a Jacobi-type pseudo-Finslerian metric and demonstrate that motions of fixed energy correspond, up to...
Two permutations $σ,τ\in S_n$ are called disjoint if the composition $στ^{-1}$ has no fixed point. If a family $\mathcal F\subseteq S_n$ contains no $s$ pairwise disjoint permutations, then a simple averaging argument gives $|\mathcal F|\leq(s-1)(n-1)!$. Inozemtsev, Kolupaev and Kupavskii characterized the equality cases in the range...
The way numbers are represented strongly influences which arithmetic structures are easy to see. The \emph{prime clockwork} is a recursively growing discrete dynamical system: a list of autonomous two-hand clocks driven by one common $+1$ signal. No primes or primality labels are supplied. Starting empty, the process appends a clock...
Wang and Sitters' 11/6-approximation for graph balancing is not one algorithm but a set of permitted executions: Step 1 may return any feasible solution of the relaxation and Step 3 any of the many ways to match the remaining jobs into the slots the rounding opens. We determine exactly what that latitude permits: ratios arbitrarily...
Let a group $G$ act linearly on a finite-dimensional complex vector space $V$. The group-additive diameter of a subspace $U \leq V$ is the least number of translates of $U$ whose sum is all of $V$. Counting dimensions, it is at least $\dim V / \dim U$. We show that when $G$ is compact and $V$ is irreducible, the diameter of every...
We study the operators obtained by inserting copies of a new largest letter into multiset permutations. Let $G_r$ denote the operator which inserts $r$ copies of a new largest letter. After the change of variables $δ=y-x$, $u=x/y$, and $E=u\partial_u$, we find that $$G_r=\frac{δ^r}{r!}E(E+1)\cdots(E+r-1).$$ Its generating series acts...
We prove a scaling-critical regularity criterion involving only one velocity component for finite-energy suitable weak solutions of the three-dimensional incompressible Navier--Stokes equations. Let $2<p<\infty$ and $m=3p/(p-2)$, so that $2/p+3/m=1$. We show that a singularity cannot occur provided \[ \sum_{j\in\mathbb Z} ...
