Latest NFL news sets up Cowboys to make way too obvious free agency signing
From the moment the Dallas Cowboys hired Mike Zimmer as defensive coordinator, there's one linebacker that's been in the minds of fans and media alike as a perfect fit to arrive in the offseason: Eric Kendricks. The former Minnesota Vikings LB who played for Zimmer for so many years (2015-2021), however, was under contract with the Los Angeles Chargers. On Tuesday, that changed as he was cut by L.A.  That means he's open for business and in my opinion, he should immediately be targeted by the …

Spatio-temporal modeling for record-breaking temperature events in Spain
Record-breaking temperature events are now very frequently in the news, viewed as evidence of climate change. With this as motivation, we undertake the first substantial spatial modeling investigation of temperature record-breaking across years for any given day within the year. We work with a dataset consisting of over sixty years (1960-2021) of daily maximum temperatures across peninsular Spain. Formal statistical analysis of record-breaking events is an area that has received attention prima…

Revisiting Boehmer et al. (2021): Recent Period, Alternative Method, Different Conclusions
We reassess Boehmer et al. (2021, BJZZ)'s seminal work on the predictive power of retail order imbalance (ROI) for future stock returns. First, we replicate their 2010-2015 analysis in the more recent 2016-2021 period. We find that the ROI's predictive power weakens significantly. Specifically, past ROI can no longer predict weekly returns on large-cap stocks, and the long-short strategy based on past ROI is no longer profitable. Second, we analyze the effect of using the alternative quote midp…

Determination of the number of $ψ(3686)$ events taken at BESIII
The number of $ψ(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII detector during the 2021 run period is determined to be $(2259.3\pm 11.1)\times 10^6$ by counting inclusive $ψ(3686)$ hadronic events. The uncertainty is systematic and the statistical uncertainty is negligible. Meanwhile, the numbers of $ψ(3686)$ events collected during the 2009 and 2012 run periods are updated to be $(107.7\pm0.6)\times 10^6$ and $(345.4\pm 2.6)\times 10^6$, respectively.

An Enhanced ADMM-based Interior Point Method for Linear and Conic Optimization
The ADMM-based interior point (ABIP, Lin et al. 2021) method is a hybrid algorithm that effectively combines interior point method (IPM) and first-order methods to achieve a performance boost in large-scale linear optimization. Different from traditional IPM that relies on computationally intensive Newton steps, the ABIP method applies the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) to approximately solve the barrier penalized problem. However, similar to other first-order methods, this …

Supernova (SN) 1987A offers a unique opportunity to study how a spatially resolved SN evolves into a young supernova remnant (SNR). We present and analyze Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging observations of SN 1987A obtained in 2022 and compare them with HST observations from 2009 to 2021. These observations allow us to follow the evolution of the equatorial ring (ER), the rapidly expanding ejecta, and emission from the center over a wide range in wavelength from 2000 to 11 000 AA.

This strategy is an extension of the theory from [Park and Wilson, SIADS 20.3 (2021)] and yields coupling functions for $N\geq2$ oscillators for arbitrary types of coupling (e.g., diffusive, gap-junction, chemical synaptic). These coupling functions enable the study of oscillator networks in terms of phase-locked states, whose sta…

Chromatic number in $1.9999^n$ time? Fast deterministic set partitioning under the asymptotic rank conjecture
In this paper we further explore the recently discovered connection by Björklund and Kaski [STOC 2024] and Pratt [STOC 2024] between the asymptotic rank conjecture of Strassen [Progr. Math. 1994] and the three-way partitioning problem. We show that under the asymptotic rank conjecture, the chromatic number of an $n$-vertex graph can be computed deterministically in $O(1.99982^n)$ time, thus giving a conditional answer to a question of Zamir [ICALP 2021], and questioning the optimality of the $…

All-Pro Superstar Threatens Holdout Amist Contract Dispute
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is entering the final year of his rookie contract and could holdout for a better deal. A first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Oklahoma product quickly established himself as one of the most dangerous secondary options in the game. While playing behind Amari Cooper, the wide receiver recorded a combined 153 receptions for 2,037 yards and 11 touchdowns through his first two seasons. The Cowboys traded Amari Cooper following the 2021 season, leaving …

On a variational problem related to the Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum and Lieb-Thirring inequalities
We explicitly solve a variational problem related to upper bounds on the optimal constants in the Cwikel--Lieb--Rozenblum (CLR) and Lieb--Thirring (LT) inequalities, which has recently been derived in [Invent. Math. 231 (2023), no.1, 111-167. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00222-022-01144-7 ] and [J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 23 (2021), no.8, 2583-2600. https://doi.org/10.4171/jems/1062 ]. We achieve this through a variational characterization of the $L^1$ norm of the Fourier transform of a function and…

Applications of the kinetic theory for a model of a confined quasi-two dimensional granular mixture: Stability analysis and thermal diffusion segregation
The Boltzmann kinetic theory for a model of a confined quasi-two dimensional granular mixture derived previously [Garzó, Brito and Soto, Phys. Fluids \textbf{33}, 023310 (2021)] is considered further to analyze two different problems. First, a linear stability analysis of the hydrodynamic equations with respect to the homogeneous steady state (HSS) is carried out to identify the conditions for stability as functions of the wave vector, the coefficients of restitution, and the parameters of the…
