The motivic class of the space of genus $0$ maps to the flag variety

Let $\operatorname{Fl}_{n+1}$ be the variety of complete flags in $\mathbb{A}^{n+1}$ and let $Ω^{2}_β(\operatorname{Fl}_{n+1})$ be the space of based maps $f:\mathbb{P}^{1}\to \operatorname{Fl}_{n+1}$ in the class $f_{*}[\mathbb{P}^{1}]=β$. We show that under a mild positivity condition on $β$, the class of...

Language-Grounded Multi-Domain Image Translation via Semantic Difference Guidance

Multi-domain image-to-image translation re quires grounding semantic differences ex pressed in natural language prompts into corresponding visual transformations, while preserving unrelated structural and seman tic content. Existing methods struggle to maintain structural integrity and provide fine grained, attribute-specific control,...

False Friends in the Shell: Unveiling the Emoticon Semantic Confusion in Large Language Models

Emoticons are widely used in digital communication to convey affective intent, yet their safety implications for Large Language Models (LLMs) remain largely unexplored. In this paper, we identify emoticon semantic confusion, a vulnerability where LLMs misinterpret ASCII-based emoticons to perform unintended and even destructive...

The Roots of Performance Disparity in Multilingual Language Models: Intrinsic Modeling Difficulty or Design Choices?

Multilingual language models (LMs) promise broader NLP access, yet current systems deliver uneven performance across the world's languages. This survey examines why these gaps persist and whether they reflect intrinsic linguistic difficulty or modeling artifacts. We organize the literature around two questions: do linguistic...

VENUS: Visual Editing with Noise Inversion Using Scene Graphs

State-of-the-art text-based image editing models often struggle to balance background preservation with semantic consistency, frequently resulting either in the synthesis of entirely new images or in outputs that fail to realize the intended edits. In contrast, scene graph-based image editing addresses this limitation by providing a...

What is a Schiff moment anyway?

Schiff moments of atomic nuclei are of considerable interest to experiments searching for undiscovered new physics that breaks time-reversal symmetry. I develop a simple picture of the Schiff moment of a charge distribution, and discuss the interaction of the Schiff moment of a nucleus with the field produced by an electron in an atom.

Emergent Cooperative Superstructures via Order-Disorder Kinetics in Molecule-Intercalated NbSe2

The design of quantum states at heterointerfaces has enabled a variety of emergent phenomena. Among them, molecular intercalation superlattices have attracted attention as tunable hybrid materials, formed by inserting organic molecules into van der Waals crystals, where molecular structure and chemistry provide new degrees of freedom....

Neuronal Spike Trains as Functional-Analytic Distributions: Representation, Analysis, and Significance

The action potential constitutes the digital component of the signaling dynamics of neurons. But the biophysical nature of the full-time course of the action potential associated with changes in membrane potential is mathematically distinct from its representation as a discrete set of events that encode when action potentials are...

BlindU: Blind Machine Unlearning without Revealing Erasing Data

Machine unlearning enables data holders to remove the contribution of their specified samples from trained models to protect their privacy. However, it is paradoxical that most unlearning methods require the unlearning requesters to firstly upload their data to the server as a prerequisite for unlearning. These methods are infeasible...

MI-PRUN: Optimize Large Language Model Pruning via Mutual Information

Large Language Models (LLMs) have become indispensable across various domains, but this comes at the cost of substantial computational and memory resources. Model pruning addresses this by removing redundant components from models. In particular, block pruning can achieve significant compression and inference acceleration. However,...

Broad line regions behind haze: Intrinsic shape of Br$γ$ line and its origin in a type-1 Seyfert galaxy

The broad-line region (BLR) of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is an essential component, yet its small size keeps its origin, structure, and kinematics uncertain. Infrared interferometry with VLTI/GRAVITY is now resolving BLR-scale emission, with data for NGC 3783 consistent with a rotating, geometrically thick configuration. However,...

Quantum-Compatible Dictionary Learning via Doubly Sparse Models

Dictionary learning (DL) is a core tool in signal processing and machine learning for discovering sparse representations of data. In contrast with classical successes, there is currently no practical quantum dictionary learning algorithm. We argue that this absence stems from structural mismatches between classical DL formulations and...

SIRR-LMM: Single-image Reflection Removal via Large Multimodal Model

Glass surfaces create complex interactions of reflected and transmitted light, making single-image reflection removal (SIRR) challenging. Existing datasets suffer from limited physical realism in synthetic data or insufficient scale in real captures. We introduce a synthetic dataset generation framework that path-traces 3D glass...

MAESTRO: Meta-learning Adaptive Estimation of Scalarization Trade-offs for Reward Optimization

Group-Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has emerged as an efficient paradigm for aligning Large Language Models (LLMs), yet its efficacy is primarily confined to domains with verifiable ground truths. Extending GRPO to open-domain settings remains a critical challenge, as unconstrained generation entails multi-faceted and often...

Thermodynamic Driving Force Activated Phonon Scattering in InN

Defect related disorder during InN growth is a major challenge for making high performance electronic and optoelectronic devices. This is partly because film quality is often described using reactor specific settings instead of general physical variables. In this study, we show that plasma assisted MOCVD growth of InN can be described...

Effect of LH and ECR waves on plasma parameters in ADITYA Upgrade tokamak

The plasma discharges in ADITYA Upgrade Tokamak are produced by means of transformer action, in which Ohmically created plasma is driven by means of a secondary loop voltage. Due to reduction of plasma resistivity after a certain level of plasma temperature, Ohmic heating becomes poor and further achievement of temperature needs other...

Posinormality and the Root Problem

The paper extends three results regarding the nth root problem by embedding classes of Hilbert-space operators into the class of posinormal operators. For instance, it is shown that (i) for coposinormal operators, if T is paranormal and T^n is quasinormal, then T is normal, and (ii) for posinormal operators, if T is k-quasiparanormal...

CalPro: Prior-Aware Evidential--Conformal Prediction with Structure-Aware Guarantees for Protein Structures

Deep protein structure predictors such as AlphaFold provide confidence estimates (e.g., pLDDT) that are often miscalibrated and degrade under distribution shifts across experimental modalities, temporal changes, and intrinsically disordered regions. We introduce CalPro, a prior-aware evidential-conformal framework for shift-robust...
