Toward plasma drifts in EMC3: Implementation of gradient, divergence, and particle tracing schemes

This paper presents a first implementation of gradient, divergence, and particle tracing schemes for the EMC3 code, a stochastic 3D plasma fluid code widely employed for edge plasma and impurity transport modeling in tokamaks and stellarators. These scheme ...

EXISTENCE OF AN UNBOUNDED NODAL HYPERSURFACE FOR SMOOTH GAUSSIAN FIELDS IN DIMENSION d >= 3

Alejandro Rivera

For the Bargmann-Fock field on R-d with d >= 3, we prove that the critical level l(c) (d) of the percolation model formed by the excursion sets {f >= l} is strictly positive. This implies that for every l sufficiently close to 0 (in particular for the noda ...

On the (Im)possibility of Commitment over Gaussian Unfair Noisy Channels

Commitment is a key primitive which resides at the heart of several cryptographic protocols. Noisy channels can help realize information-theoretically secure commitment schemes; however, their imprecise statistical characterization can severely impair such ...

New SIDH Countermeasures for a More Efficient Key Exchange

Tako Boris Fouotsa, Andrea Basso

The Supersingular Isogeny Diffie-Hellman (SIDH) protocol has been the main and most efficient isogeny-based encryption protocol, until a series of breakthroughs led to a polynomial-time key-recovery attack. While some countermeasures have been proposed, th ...

Phonon Self-Energy Corrections: To Screen, or Not to Screen

Nicola Marzari, Samuel Poncé

First-principles calculations of phonons are often based on the adiabatic approximation and on Brillouinzone samplings that might not always be sufficient to capture the subtleties of Kohn anomalies. These shortcomings can be addressed through corrections ...

Conditional Flatness, Fiberwise Localizations, And Admissible Reflections

Jérôme Scherer

We extend the group-theoretic notion of conditional flatness for a localization functor to any pointed category, and investigate it in the context of homological categories and of semi-abelian categories. In the presence of functorial fiberwise localizatio ...

Unlikely intersections on the p-adic formal ball

Vlad Serban

We investigate generalizations along the lines of the Mordell-Lang conjecture of the author's p-adic formal Manin-Mumford results for n-dimensional p-divisible formal groups F. In particular, given a finitely generated subgroup (sic) of F(Q(p)) and a close ...

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 ...

Unbiasing time-dependent Variational Monte Carlo by projected quantum evolution

Giuseppe Carleo, Clemens Giuliani, Alessandro Sinibaldi, Filippo Vicentini

We analyze the accuracy and sample complexity of variational Monte Carlo approaches to simulate the dynamics of many-body quantum systems classically. By systematically studying the relevant stochastic estimators, we are able to: (i) prove that the most us ...

Techno-economic and environmental impact assessment of an olive tree pruning waste multiproduct biorefinery

Elia Mercedes Ruiz Pachon

This work focuses on the economic performance and environmental assessment of two biorefinery schemes using 100 t/day of olive tree pruning waste as feedstock. The first scheme is based on a multiproduct biorefinery producing 6363.64 m3/yr of ethanol, 999. ...

Gyrokinetic simulations of turbulence and zonal flows driven by steep profile gradients using a delta-f approach with an evolving background Maxwellian

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Moahan Murugappan, Alberto Bottino, Ben McMillan

Long global gyrokinetic turbulence simulations are particularly challenging in situations where the system deviates strongly from its initial state and when fluctuation levels are high, for example, in strong gradient regions. For particle-in-cell simulati ...

Unified theory of atom-centered representations and message-passing machine-learning schemes

Michele Ceriotti, Guillaume André Jean Fraux, Sergey Pozdnyakov, Jigyasa Nigam

Data-driven schemes that associate molecular and crystal structures with their microscopic properties share the need for a concise, effective description of the arrangement of their atomic constituents. Many types of models rely on descriptions of atom-cen ...

Linear and nonlinear excitation of TAE modes by external electromagnetic perturbations using ORB5

Laurent Villard, Emmanuel Lanti, Alberto Bottino, Mohsen Sadr

The excitation of toroidicity-induced Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs) using prescribed external electromagnetic perturbations (hereafter 'antenna') acting on a confined toroidal plasma, as well as its nonlinear couplings to other modes in the system, is studied. ...

Singularities of general fibers and the LMMP

Zsolt Patakfalvi, Joseph Allen Waldron

We use the theory of foliations to study the relative canonical divisor of a normalized inseparable base-change. Our main technical theorem states that it is linearly equivalent to a divisor with positive integer coefficients divisible by p - 1. We deduce ...

Stochastic distributed learning with gradient quantization and double-variance reduction

Sebastian Urban Stich, Konstantin Mishchenko

We consider distributed optimization over several devices, each sending incremental model updates to a central server. This setting is considered, for instance, in federated learning. Various schemes have been designed to compress the model updates in orde ...

An unrefinement algorithm for planar THB-spline parameterizations

Annalisa Buffa

Unrefinement is a tool that allows to perform faster numerical simulations by controlling the level of precision in the specified area. We introduce an algorithm that creates a coarser geometry from an initial regular geometry, which is represented with re ...

Efficient Meso-Scale Modeling of Alkali-Silica-Reaction Damage in Concrete

Ali Falsafi

The alkali-silica reaction (ASR), also known as concrete cancer, is one of the most prevalent causes of concrete degradation. In this chemical reaction, amorphous silica in the aggregates reacts with alkalis in the pore solution. By absorbing water, hydrop ...

Impacts of Metering-Based Dynamic Priority Schemes

Covers Of Rational Double Points In Mixed Characteristic

We further the classification of rational surface singularities. Suppose (S, n, k) is a 3-dimensional strictly Henselian regular local ring of mixed characteristic (0, p > 5). We classify functions f for which S/(f) has an isolated rational singularity at ...
