Mechanism Shift During Post-training from Autoregressive to Masked Diffusion Language Models

Post-training pretrained autoregressive models (ARMs) into masked diffusion models (MDMs) has emerged as a cost-effective way to overcome the limitations of sequential generation. Yet it remains unclear whether post-trained MDMs acquire genuinely new computational mechanisms or merely re-express autoregressive computation in a...

Hydrogen Activation via Dihydride Formation on a Rh1/Fe3O4(001) Single-Atom Catalyst

Hydrogen activation is a key elementary step in catalytic hydrogenation. In heterogeneous catalysis, it usually proceeds through dissociative adsorption on metal nanoparticles followed by surface diffusion or spillover, whereas homogeneous catalysts activate H2 through dihydride or dihydrogen intermediates at a single metal center....

Anomalous Localization and Mobility Edges in Non-Hermitian Quasicrystals with Disordered Imaginary Gauge Fields

Localization in non-Hermitian quasicrystals can differ fundamentally from its Hermitian counterpart when non-reciprocity is spatially disordered. Here we study a one-dimensional non-Hermitian Aubry-André-Harper chain with a Bernoulli imaginary gauge field and quasiperiodic onsite modulation. In the nearest-neighbor limit, we identify...

Inverse-Hessian Regularization for Continual Learning in ASR

Catastrophic forgetting remains a major challenge for continual learning (CL) in automatic speech recognition (ASR), where models must adapt to new domains without losing performance on previously learned conditions. Several CL methods have been proposed for ASR, and, recently, weight averaging - where models are averaged in a merging...

Triggers for plasma detachment bifurcation in the edge divertor region of tokamaks

We report the discovery of the trigger for detachment bifurcation phenomenon in tokamak divertors, revealed through steady-state and time-dependent UEDGE simulations: The observed electron temperature cliff at the outer target in DIII-D H-mode plasmas with ion $B\times \nabla B$ drift driven into the active divertor results from a...

Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund-type SLLN for mixed moving average processes

The Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund theorem is a fundamental result in probability theory that establishes rates of convergence in the strong law of large numbers (SLLN). Although numerous extensions have been developed for dependent sequences, many classes of processes, particularly those exhibiting strong dependence, remain unexplored. In...

Finite-dimensional approximations of random attractor for stochastic discrete complex Ginzburg-Landau equations

In this paper, we apply an implicit Euler scheme to discretize the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation and prove the existence of a numerical attractor for the discrete Ginzburg-Landau system. We establish the upper semicontinuity of the numerical attractor with respect to the global attractor as the time step tends to zero. Furthermore,...
