On the Smallest Size of Internal Collage Systems
A Straight-Line Program (SLP) for a stirng $T$ is a context-free grammar in Chomsky normal form that derives $T$ only, which can be seen as a compressed form of $T$. Kida et al.\ introduced collage systems [Theor. Comput. Sci., 2003] to generalize SLPs by adding repetition rules and truncation rules. The smallest size $c(T)$ of collage systems for $T$ has gained attention to see how these generalized rules improve the compression ability of SLPs. Navarro et al. [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 2021] s…

The Perturbation Theory Approach to Stability in the Scattered Disk
Scattered disk objects (SDOs) are distant minor bodies that orbit the sun on highly eccentric orbits, frequently with perhelia near Neptune's orbit. Gravitational perturbations due to Neptune frequently lead to chaotic dynamics, with the degree of chaotic diffusion set by an object's perihelion distance. Batygin et al. (2021) developed a perturbative approach for scattered disk dynamics, finding that, to leading order in semi-major axis ratio, an infinite series of $2:j$ resonances drives the d…

Probing the energy-dependent temporal nature of MAXI J1803-298 with AstroSat and NICER
We performed the spectral and temporal analysis of MAXI J1803-298 using AstroSat/LAXPC and NICER observations taken in May 2021 during the initial phase of the outburst. We found that the source traverses through the hard, intermediate, and soft spectral states during the outburst. The spectrum in all states can be described using soft emissions from the thermal disk and hard emissions from the coronal regions. The variation in the inner disk temperature and normalization of the disk indicates …

This study examines how Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine affected APCs, publishing patterns, and citation impact of Gold OA articles authored by Ukrainian scholars between 2020 and 2023. Data from Scopus covers articles published before (2020-2021) and after (2022-2023) the war's onset. Statistical analysis revealed a small but significant correlation between APC amounts and citation impact, though the effect size was minimal, suggesting higher APCs did not substantially boost citations.…

Bias correction for Chatterjee's graph-based correlation coefficient
Azadkia and Chatterjee (2021) recently introduced a simple nearest neighbor (NN) graph-based correlation coefficient that consistently detects both independence and functional dependence. Specifically, it approximates a measure of dependence that equals 0 if and only if the variables are independent, and 1 if and only if they are functionally dependent. However, this NN estimator includes a bias term that may vanish at a rate slower than root-$n$, preventing root-$n$ consistency in general. In …

On the spectral theory in the Fock space with polynomial eigenfunctions
The notion of the eigenvalue problem in the Fock space with polynomial eigenfunctions is introduced. This problem is classified by using the finite-dimensional representations of the $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$-algebra in Fock space. In the complex representation of the 3-dimensional Heisenberg algebra, proposed by Turbiner-Vasilevski (2021) in Ref.7, this construction is reduced to the linear differential operators in $(\frac{\partial}{\partial \overline{z}}\,,\,\frac{\partial}{\partial z})$ acting on …

And 2025 is the date I predicted for this to happen, back in 2016, in a blog post for Ecofys! The score was 23%-40% at the time, with most of the renewables share still coming from hydro, and the prediction was less than obvious.

Uncertainty in past lifetime distributions and the timing of inactivity in systems and their components can be effectively measured using the fractional generalized cumulative past entropy (FGCPE) and its dynamic extension (DFGCPE), introduced by Di Crescenzo et al.

Building on this framework, we propose a quantile-based variant, the quantile fractional generalized cumulative past entropy (QFGCPE), along with its dynamic time-dependent counterpart (DQFGCPE).

👋 Hello! I’m Łukasz. Thirty-something, living in Warsaw, Poland. On fedi since 2021 or so. Right now, I'm merging my two accounts into one and giving this profile a fresh new start.
I live a few parallel lives.
Most of the time I’m a web developer. I work with TypeScript, React and all that jazz. But I still enjoy static site generators and good ol’ HTML/CSS.
In another life, I’m a documentary photographer and photojournalist. I’m interested in activism, art and culture, politics, and pretty much anything interesting happening on city streets. A big part of my photography journey involves documenting protests and demonstrations in Poland, especially those related to human rights and social issues. I’m also drawn to street art, particularly when it carries strong messages.
I occasionally blog and translate. Many years ago I wrote two books about WordPress. However, these days I’m more likely to go outside and touch grass than spend even more time in front of a screen.
Outside of that, expect me to post about mental health and politics. I promise to use CWs when appropriate.
I post in both English and Polish, depending on the topic.
Aaaand that’s it. Nice to meet you! ☺️

Bi-Lipschitz embedding properties of lamplighter graphs on weighted and unweighted trees
In 2021 Baudier, Motakis, Schlumprecht, and Zsák proved that if a sequence of graphs $(G_k)_{k\in{\mathbb{N}}}$ contains the sequence of complete graphs with uniformly bounded distortion, then the sequence of lamplighter graphs on $G_k$'s contains Hamming cubes with uniformly bounded distortion and asked whether the converse holds. They suggested that a sequence of trees with edges replaced by paths of ``moderately growing'' lengths may be a counterexample. We prove that indeed this is the…

Gas price shocks, uncertainty and price setting: evidences from Italian firms
This paper examines how natural gas price shocks affect Italian firms' pricing decisions and inflation expectations using quarterly survey data from the Bank of Italy's Survey on Inflation and Growth Expectations (SIGE) spanning 1999Q4-2025Q2. We identify natural gas price shocks through a Bayesian VAR with sign and zero restrictions. Our findings reveal that these shocks are a primary driver of firms' inflation expectations, particularly during the post-COVID period (2021-2023) when supply dis…

Asymmetric super-Heston-rough volatility model with Zumbach effect as scaling limit of quadratic Hawkes processes
Hawkes processes were first introduced to obtain microscopic models for the rough volatility observed in asset prices. Scaling limits of such processes leads to the rough-Heston model that describes the macroscopic behavior. Blanc et al. (2017) show that Time-reversal asymmetry (TRA) or the Zumbach effect can be modeled using Quadratic Hawkes (QHawkes) processes. Dandapani et al. (2021) obtain a super-rough-Heston model as scaling limit of QHawkes processes in the case where the impact of buyin…

Horizon-scale variability of M87* from 2017--2021 EHT observations
We report three epochs of polarized images of M87* at 230\,GHz using data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) taken in 2017, 2018, and 2021. The baseline coverage of the 2021 observations is significantly improved through the addition of two new EHT stations: the 12\,m Kitt Peak Telescope and the Northern Extended Millimetre Array (NOEMA). All observations result in images dominated by a bright, asymmetric ring with a persistent diameter of $43.9\pm 0.6\,\muas$, consistent with expectations …

An Economic Analysis of Electricity Consumption and Electric Vehicle Adoption in California from 2010 to 2021
This paper examines the impact of electric vehicles on total annual electricity consumption across 58 counties in California from 2010 to 2021. Employing a log linear model to analyze the relationship between electricity consumption and EV ownership, alongside a linear log model with an instrumental variable approach, the study finds that annual per capita electricity consumption increased by 0.23% for each additional electric vehicle per 10,000 residents over the 12 years period. The analysis …

The noisy voter model with general initial conditions
We study the noisy voter model with $q\geq 2$ states and noise probability $θ$ on arbitrary bounded-degree $n$-vertex graphs $G$ with subexponential growth of balls (e.g., finite subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^d$). Cox, Peres and Steif (2016) showed for the binary case $q=2$ (and a wider class of chains) that, when starting from a worst-case initial state, this Markov chain has total variation cutoff at $t_n=\frac1{2θ}\log n$. The second author and Sly (2021) analyzed faster initial conditions for Gl…

🇵🇱 Cześć! Jestem Łukasz. Trójka z przodu. Warszawa. Na fedi mniej-więcej od 2021 r. Łączę dwa konta w jedno i od tej pory będzie tu więcej polskojęzycznych postów (a jeśli obserwowałxś mnie na polskojęzycznym koncie, to dostaniesz więcej treści po angielsku 😄).
Mam kilka równoległych żyć.
Przez większość czasu buduję rzeczy w internetach, głównie z użyciem TypeScriptu, Reacta i całej reszty tego jazzu. Ciągle jednak lubię generatory stron statycznych i stary dobry HTML/CSS.
W innym życiu jestem fotografem-dokumentalistą i fotoreporterem. Interesuje mnie aktywizm, sztuka, kultura, polityka oraz wszystko, co jest ciekawe, a dzieje się na ulicach miast. Dużo uwagi poświęcam protestom i demonstracjom w Polsce, zwłaszcza dotyczącym praw człowieka i kwestii społecznych. Interesuje mnie też sztuka uliczna, zwłaszcza taka, która niesie ze sobą mocne komunikaty.
Zdarza mi się blogować i tłumaczyć teksty. Wiele lat temu napisałem dwie książki o WordPressie. Obecnie jednak wolę gdzieś wyjść niż spędzać jeszcze więcej czasu przed ekranem.
Okazjonalnie zdarza mi się postować o zdrowiu psychicznym i polityce. Staram się używać CW kiedy to możliwe.
Postuję po polsku i angielsku w zależności od tematu.
No i... chyba tyle. Miło Cię widzieć!

Stealing Accuracy: Predicting Day-ahead Electricity Prices with Temporal Hierarchy Forecasting (THieF)
We introduce the concept of temporal hierarchy forecasting (THieF) in predicting day-ahead electricity prices and show that reconciling forecasts for hourly products, 2- to 12-hour blocks, and baseload contracts significantly (up to 13%) improves accuracy at all levels. These results remain consistent throughout a challenging 4-year test period (2021-2024) in the German power market and across model architectures, including linear regression, a shallow neural network, gradient boosting, and a s…

Short-term CO2 emissions forecasting: insight from the Italian electricity market
This study investigates the short-term forecasting of carbon emissions from electricity generation in the Italian power market. Using hourly data from 2021 to 2023, several statistical models and forecast combination methods are evaluated and compared at the national and zonal levels. Four main model classes are considered: (i) linear parametric models, such as seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average and its exogenousvariable extension; (ii) functional parametric models, including sea…
