Turbulent spots in hypersonic transitional planar and axisymmetric boundary layers

Experiments were conducted to investigate characteristics of turbulent spots formed in transitional boundary layers developed over a flat plate and an axisymmetric cone placed in similar hypersonic freestream environment of Mach number 5.85. The freestream Reynolds number in the present work varied between $3.0-6.0\times10^6$/m. Heat...

Black hole entropy from the quantum atmosphere of bound gravitational fluctuations

Black hole entropy is identified with the counting of the dynamical degrees of freedom of trapped gravitational modes continually sourced by the Hawking-Unruh process. In the context of linear perturbations of Schwarzschild spacetime the density of states is derived from the orthogonality of states in the solution space of the...

Attosecond Path Qubits in Strong-Field Physics

This perspective introduces attosecond path qubits: measurement-defined two-level subsystems that arise naturally in strong-field physics from the coherent interference of distinguishable quantum pathways. These effective qubits are dynamical superposition states formed during laser-driven sub-cycle electron motion and appear in...

Universal Transport Theory for Paired Fractional Quantum Hall States in the Quantum Point Contact Geometry

Even-denominator fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states can be viewed as topological superconductors of composite fermions, supporting a charged chiral mode and $|\mathcal{C}_{cf}|$ neutral Majorana modes set by the Chern number $\mathcal{C}_{cf}$. Despite ongoing efforts, distinguishing the many competing paired phases remains an open...

Economics of Douglas fir management revisited

A recent Douglas fir management investigation is repeated in terms of accounting measures. The rotation times become much shorter than in earlier results. Thinnings do not become feasible, provided the thinning effects on the volumetric yield function do not evolve in time. Evolving prices and expenses break the periodic boundary...

A precessing jet from an active galactic nucleus drives gas outflow from a disk galaxy

To reproduce observed galaxy properties, cosmological simulations require that massive galaxies experience feedback from active galactic nuclei, which regulates star formation within those galaxies. However, the energetics and timescales of these feedback processes are poorly constrained. We combine optical, infrared, sub-millimeter...

Aggregating Diverse Cue Experts for AI-Generated Image Detection

The rapid emergence of image synthesis models poses challenges to the generalization of AI-generated image detectors. However, existing methods often rely on model-specific features, leading to overfitting and poor generalization. In this paper, we introduce the Multi-Cue Aggregation Network (MCAN), a novel framework that integrates...

On the structure and representations of quantum graph algebras at roots of unity

We study the specializations $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}^ε$ at roots of unity $ε$ of odd order of the graph algebras, associated to a simply-connected complex semi-simple algebraic group $G$ and a compact oriented surface $Σ_{g,n}^{\circ}$ with genus $g$, $n$ punctures, and one boundary component. We prove that the central localizations of...

Condensation of area quanta ensembles with quantum statistics in Schwarzschild spacetimes

As is well known, near-horizon (equivalently high acceleration) observers in spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes have a particularly simple form of the quasi-local energy. Using this energy and indistinguishable area quanta satisfying quantum statistics a statistical mechanical description of the Schwarzschild black hole...

Simple repair policies and decompositions for semi-coherent systems with simultaneous failures

We consider semi-coherent binary systems that are subject to simultaneous failures of its components. These are systems whose components can be either working or failed; the system can also be working or failed depending on the state of the components; and repairing a component cannot cause the system to fail. We consider that one or...

Uncovering Political Bias in Large Language Models using Parliamentary Voting Records

As large language models (LLMs) become deeply embedded in digital platforms and decision-making systems, concerns about their political biases have grown. While substantial work has examined social biases such as gender and race, systematic studies of political bias remain limited, despite their direct societal impact. This paper...

On the use of graph models to achieve individual and group fairness

Machine Learning algorithms are ubiquitous in key decision-making contexts such as justice, healthcare and finance, which has spawned a great demand for fairness in these procedures. However, the theoretical properties of such models in relation with fairness are still poorly understood, and the intuition behind the relationship...

Bayesian umbrella quadrature accelerates free-energy calculations across diverse molecular systems and processes

Biased sampling in molecular dynamics simulations overcomes timescale limitations and delivers free-energy landscapes, essential to understand complex atomistic phenomena. However, when applied across diverse systems and processes, biasing protocols often require time- and resource-consuming fine-tuning. In search for robustness, we...

Single-Period Floquet Control of Bosonic Codes with Quantum Lattice Gates

Bosonic codes constitute a promising route to fault-tolerant quantum computing. Existing Floquet protocols enable analytical construction of bosonic codes but typically rely on slow adiabatic ramps with thousands of driving periods. In this work, we circumvent this bottleneck by introducing an analytical and deterministic Floquet...

Fast and explainable clustering in the Manhattan and Tanimoto distance

The CLASSIX algorithm is a fast and explainable approach to data clustering. In its original form, this algorithm exploits the sorting of the data points by their first principal component to truncate the search for nearby data points, with nearness being defined in terms of the Euclidean distance. Here we extend CLASSIX to other...

LWM-Spectro: A Foundation Model for Wireless Baseband Signal Spectrograms

The received in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) baseband signals inherently encode physical-layer and channel characteristics of wireless links. Learning robust and transferable representations directly from such raw signals, however, remains challenging due to heterogeneous communication systems, diverse propagation environments, and...

Uniqueness for embeddings of nuclear $C^*$-algebras into type II$_{1}$ factors

Let $A$ be a separable, unital and exact $C^*$-algebra satisfying the universal coefficient theorem. We prove uniqueness theorems up to unitary conjugacy for unital, full and nuclear maps from $A$ into ultraproducts of finite von Neumann factors: any two such maps agreeing on traces and total $K$-theory are unitarily equivalent. There...

Asymptotic Universal Alignment: A New Alignment Framework via Test-Time Scaling

Aligning large language models (LLMs) to serve users with heterogeneous and potentially conflicting preferences is a central challenge for personalized and trustworthy AI. We formalize an ideal notion of universal alignment through test-time scaling: for each prompt, the model produces $k\ge 1$ candidate responses and a user selects...

A Langevin sampler for quantum tomography

We propose a Langevin sampler for quantum tomography, that relies on a new formulation of Bayesian quantum tomography exploiting the Burer-Monteiro factorization of Hermitian positive-semidefinite matrices. If the...

Integral points over number fields: a Clemens complex jigsaw puzzle

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integral points of bounded log anticanonical height on a singular quartic del Pezzo surface over arbitrary number fields, with respect to the largest admissible boundary divisor. The resulting Clemens complex is more complicated than usual, and leads to particularly interesting...
