Stellwerk München Ost
Das Stellwerk am Münchner Ostbahnhof ist bei weitem nicht die einzige Quelle für Störungen im Münchner S-Bahn-Netz und darüber hinaus, aber eine der häufigeren Ursachen. 2021 wurde daher begonnen, ein neues Stellwerk zu errichten. Im Sommer 2023 sollte das neue elektronische Stellwerk in Betrieb gehen, aber im Mai letzten Jahres wurde die Inbetriebnahme auf August 2024 verschoben. Jetzt kam die Nachricht, dass es ein weiteres Jahr länger ...

Platforms for Efficient and Incentive-Aware Collaboration
Collaboration is crucial for reaching collective goals. However, its effectiveness is often undermined by the strategic behavior of individual agents -- a fact that is captured by a high Price of Stability (PoS) in recent literature [Blum et al., 2021]. Implicit in the traditional PoS analysis is the assumption that agents have full knowledge of how their tasks relate to one another. We offer a new perspective on bringing about efficient collaboration among strategic agents using information de…

AssetHarvester: A Static Analysis Tool for Detecting Assets Protected by Secrets in Software Artifacts
GitGuardian monitored secrets exposure in public GitHub repositories and reported developers leaked over 12 million secrets (database and other credentials) in 2023, indicating a 113% surge from 2021. Despite the availability of secret detection tools, developers ignore the tools' reported warnings because of false positives (25%-99%). However, each secret protects assets of different values accessible through asset identifiers (a DNS name and a public or private IP address). The asset informat…

Exit Spillovers of Foreign-invested Enterprises in Shenzhen's Electronics Manufacturing Industry
Neighborhood characteristics have been broadly studied with different firm behaviors, e.g. birth, entry, expansion, and survival, except for firm exit. Using a novel dataset of foreign-invested enterprises operating in Shenzhen's electronics manufacturing industry from 2017 to 2021, I investigate the spillover effects of firm exits on other firms in the vicinity, from both the industry group and the industry class level. Significant neighborhood effects are identified for the industry group lev…

The sandpile model on the complete split graph: $q,t$-Schröder polynomials, sawtooth polyominoes, and a cyclic lemma
This paper builds on work initiated in Dukes (2021) that considered the classification of recurrent configurations of the Abelian sandpile model on the complete split graph. We introduce two statistics, wtopple$_{CTI}$ and wtopple$_{ITC}$, on sorted recurrent configurations. These statistics arise from two natural but different toppling conventions, CTI and ITC, for Dhar's burning algorithm as it is applied to the complete split graph. In addition, we introduce the bivariate $q,t$-CTI and $q,t$…

On this day in 2007, Prince delivered the greatest Super Bowl halftime show of all time, delivering the most-viewed musical performance in American history. But the deeper personal, artistic and social themes of his performance elevated it to a cultural milestone. Prince skipped his own biggest hits like When Doves Cry & Kiss in favor of covers from artists across various decades and genres. Here’s the story behind that choice.

Musk avoided capital gains tax on the value of his shares. Plus (due to this loophole) he deducted the FULL value against other income. Plus (due to being a cheat) he then used the tax-free money for his personal benefit.

The Dallas Cowboys need a No. 2 receiver behind CeeDee Lamb, and their attempts at filling the role the past couple of years have not panned out. The Cowboys tried rolling with Michael Gallup, and he appeared to be the man for the job early on. However, he tore his ACL in 2021 and has not been the same ever since. Dallas also swung a trade with the Houston Texans to acquire Brandin Cooks last spring, but Cooks disappointed in his debut campaign with the Cowboys, totaling 657 yards through the a…

Dimension-independent functional inequalities by tensorization and projection arguments
We study stability under tensorization and projection-type operations of gradient-type estimates and other functional inequalities for Markov semigroups on metric spaces. Using transportation-type inequalities obtained by F. Baudoin and N. Eldredge in 2021, we prove that constants in the gradient estimates can be chosen to be independent of the dimension. Our results are applicable to hypoelliptic diffusions on sub-Riemannian manifolds and some hypocoercive diffusions. As a byproduct, we obtain…

We examine the outcomes of the regular announcements of observing opportunities for ESA's gamma-ray observatory INTEGRAL issued between 2000 and 2021. We investigate how success rates vary with the lead proposer's gender, academic age and the country where the proposer's institute is located. The more than 20 years operational lifetime enable the evolution of the community proposing for INTEGRAL to be probed. We determine proposal success rates for high-priority and all proposals using both the…

Understanding the impact of different social interactions is key to improving epidemic models.

We isolate and compare different contexts of potential SARS-CoV-2 transmission by matching pairs of students based on their attendance at the same or different …

IceCube's previous all-sky searches for neutrino flares used data sets consisting of track-like events originating from charged-current muon neutrino interactions.

On balanceable and simply balanceable regular graphs
We continue the study of balanceable graphs, defined by Caro, Hansberg, and Montejano in 2021 as graphs $G$ such that any $2$-coloring of the edges of a sufficiently large complete graph containing sufficiently many edges of each color contains a balanced copy of $G$. While the problem of recognizing balanceable graphs was conjectured to be NP-complete by Dailly, Hansberg, and Ventura in 2021, balanceable graphs admit an elegant combinatorial characterization: a graph is balanceable if and only…

Moderate Deviation and Berry-Esseen Bounds in the $p$-Spin Curie-Weiss Model
Limit theorems for the magnetization in the $p$-spin Curie-Weiss model, for $p \geq 3$, has been derived recently by Mukherjee et al. (2021). In this paper, we strengthen these results by proving Cramér-type moderate deviation theorems and Berry-Esseen bounds for the magnetization (suitably centered and scaled). In particular, we show that the rate of convergence is $O(N^{-\frac{1}{2}})$ when the magnetization has asymptotically Gaussian fluctuations, and it is $O(N^{-\frac{1}{4}})$ when the f…

Likely detection of magnetic field related LFQPO in the soft X-ray re-brightening of GRS~1915+105
Utilizing NICER observations, we present an analysis of the soft X-ray re-brightening event of GRS 1915+105 observed in 2021. During this event, we observed the emergence of a stable, long-lasting low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillation (LFQPO) with frequencies ranging from 0.17 to 0.21 Hz. Through a careful spectral analysis, we demonstrate that a low-temperature Compton-thick gas model well characterizes the emitted radiation. By examining the spectrum and identifying numerous absorption lin…

New bounds for normal approximation on product spaces with applications to monochromatic edges, random sums and an infinite de Jong CLT
We extend the Malliavin theory for $L^2$-functionals on product probability spaces that has recently been developed by Decreusefond and Halconruy (2019) and by Duerinckx (2021), by characterizing the domains and investigating the actions of the three Malliavin operators in terms of the infinite Hoeffding decomposition in $L^2$, which we identify as the natural analogue of the famous Wiener-Itô chaos decomposition on Gaussian and Poisson spaces. We further combine this theory with Stein's metho…
