Mapping orthorhombic domains with geometrical phase analysis in rare-earth nickelate heterostructures

Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Bernat Mundet, Jean-Marc Triscone

Most perovskite oxides belong to the Pbnm space group, composed of an anisotropic unit cell, A-site antipolar displacements, and oxygen octahedral tilts. Mapping the orientation of the orthorhombic unit cell in epitaxial heterostructures that consist of at ...

Generative power of a protein language model trained on multiple sequence alignments

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol, Umberto Lupo, Damiano Sgarbossa

Computational models starting from large ensembles of evolutionarily related protein sequences capture a representation of protein families and learn constraints associated to protein structure and function. They thus open the possibility for generating no ...

Explicit representations for Banach subspaces of Lizorkin distributions

Michaël Unser, Sebastian Jonas Neumayer

The Lizorkin space is well suited to the study of operators like fractional Laplacians and the Radon transform. In this paper, we show that the space is unfortunately not complemented in the Schwartz space. In return, we show that it is dense in C0(Double- ...

Resistances to change in urban travel behaviors

Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss

The social discourse surrounding the climate emergency progressively infuses the society, transforming into both micro- and macro-social injunctions to change. Yet, society - grounded in a territorial, social, and cultural contingency - appears to resist t ...

An adaptive space-time algorithm for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

Marco Picasso, Samuel Dubuis

A space-time adaptive algorithm is presented to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Time discretization is performed with the BDF2 method while continuous, piecewise linear anisotropic finite elements are used for the space discretization. Th ...

Persistence and the Sheaf-Function Correspondence

Nicolas Michel Berkouk

The sheaf-function correspondence identifies the group of constructible functions on a real analytic manifold M with the Grothendieck group of constructible sheaves on M. When M is a finite dimensional real vector space, Kashiwara-Schapira have recently in ...

THE COMPACT SUPPORT PROPERTY FOR SOLUTIONS TO THE STOCHASTIC PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH COLORED NOISE

Jaeyun Yi

We study the compact support property for solutions of the following stochastic partial differential equations: partial derivative tu=aijuxixj(t,x)+biuxi(t,x)+cu+h(t,x,u(t,x))F-center dot(t,x),(t,x)is an element of(0,infinity)xRd,where F-center dot is a sp ...

Transfer learning application of self-supervised learning in ARPES

Gabriel Aeppli

There is a growing recognition that electronic band structure is a local property of materials and devices, and there is steep growth in capabilities to collect the relevant data. New photon sources, from small-laboratory-based lasers to free electron lase ...

cgNA+: A sequence-dependent coarse-grain model of double-stranded nucleic acids

Rahul Sharma

DNA mechanics plays a crucial role in many biological processes, including nucleosome positioning and protein-DNA interactions. It is believed that nature employs epigenetic modifications in DNA to further regulate gene expression. Moreover, double-strande ...

Collapse-invariant properties of spaces equipped with signals or directions

Stefania Ebli

Collapsing cell complexes was first introduced in the 1930's as a way to deform a space into a topological-equivalent subspace with a sequence of elementary moves. Recently, discrete Morse theory techniques provided an efficient way to construct deformatio ...

Propagation of singularities for the stochastic wave equation

Cheuk Yin Lee

We study the existence and propagation of singularities of the solution to a one-dimensional linear stochastic wave equation driven by an additive Gaussian noise that is white in time and colored in space. Our approach is based on a simultaneous law of the ...

A Functional Perspective on Information Measures

Amedeo Roberto Esposito

Since the birth of Information Theory, researchers have defined and exploited various information measures, as well as endowed them with operational meanings. Some were born as a "solution to a problem", like Shannon's Entropy and Mutual Information. Other ...

Search for relativistic fractionally charged particles in space

Jennifer Maria Frieden, Chiara Perrina, Jian Wang, Zhirui Xu, Yi Zhang, Siyuan Wang, Songmei Wu, Junqiu Liu, Johan Juul Chang, Jie Chen, Cheng Zhao, Wei Li, Yong Yang, Yi Wang, Hao Liu, Xiao Wang, Shuai Liu, Wenyu Zhang, Xuan Li, Yao Zhang, Ming Gao, Arshia Ruina, Andrii Kotenko

More than a century after the performance of the oil drop experiment, the possible existence of fractionally charged particles (FCPs) still remains unsettled. The search for FCPs is crucial for some extensions of the Standard Model in particle physics. Mos ...

Probing multi-particle unitarity with the Landau equations

Miguel Alexandre Ribeiro Correia, Alexander Zhiboedov, Amit Sever

We consider the 2 -> 2 scattering amplitude of identical massive particles. We identify the Landau curves in the multi-particle region 16m(2)

Regional Differences in the Perception of Daylit Scenes across Europe Using Virtual Reality. Part II: Effects of Facade and Daylight Pattern Geometry

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Kynthia Chamilothori

While there is a growing use of complex facade designs in contemporary architecture worldwide and across Europe, little is known about the perceptual effects of these facades and the resulting daylight patterns on occupants, or about how such effects might ...

Real space and reciprocal space investigations of the spin dynamics in skyrmion-hosting materials

Le Yu

Magnetic skyrmions are whirl-like spin configurations with particle-like properties protected by non-trivial topology. Due to their unique spin structures and dynamical properties, they have attracted tremendous interests over the past decade, from fundame ...

On the asymptotic optimality of spectral coarse spaces

Tommaso Vanzan

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic optimality of spectral coarse spaces for two-level iterative methods. Spectral coarse spaces, namely coarse spaces obtained as the span of the slowest modes of the used one-level smoother, are known to be very ef ...

Discretisation and continuity: The emergence of symbols in communication

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Robert Lieck

Vocal signalling systems, as used by humans and various non-human animals, exhibit discrete and continuous properties that can naturally be used to express discrete and continuous information, such as distinct words to denote objects in the world and proso ...

Intensifying space activity calls for increased scrutiny of risks

Romain Buchs

As the pace of space activities accelerates and societies become more reliant on space-based systems, the associated risks deserve more attention. Satellites form a critical infrastructure on which military, civil and commercial entities rely. The services ...

Is there an analog of Nesterov acceleration for gradient-based MCMC?

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion, Xiang Cheng

We formulate gradient-based Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling as optimization on the space of probability measures, with Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence as the objective functional. We show that an under-damped form of the Langevin algorithm perfor ...
