Uspol, genocide
In case you're wondering whether "political violence" is escalating in the U.S.A. right now, of *course* it is as we move into an era of concentration campus and domestic military deployments. But both domestic genocides and purges as well as political violence targeted at individual prominent figures has been a *constant* throughout American history, from gun duels fought between political rivals to massacres of Native Americans in order to steal their land, to pogroms against Catholics, to literal wars on local Black success and political participation, all dating back before the American Revolution to the beginning of colonization. Thanks to Wikipedia, here's a *small sampling* where I attempted to whittle things down to about one event per decade before recent times.

Description of CRESST-III lithium aluminate data
Two detector modules with lithium aluminate targets were operated in the CRESST underground setup between February and June 2021. The data collected in this period was used to set the currently strongest cross-section upper limits on the spin-dependent interaction of dark matter (DM) with protons and neutrons for the mass region between 0.25 and 1.5 GeV/c$^2$. The data are available online. In this document, we describe how the data set should be used to reproduce our dark matter results.

Difference of weighted composition operators between Bergman spaces

Difference of weighted composition operators between Bergman spaces
We first obtain a simpler proof of the main results in [IEOT, {\bf 93}(2021), 17], which characterized the bounded and compact differences $C_{u,φ}-C_{v,ψ}$ of two weighted composition operators acting from $A_α^p(\mathbb{D})$ to $A_α^q(\mathbb{D})$. Then we get some characterizations for the difference of weighted composition operator belonging to Schatten class. Moreover, compact difference of a weighted composition operator and a unweighted composition operator on Hardy space is also stu…

First observation of the Josephson-Anderson relation in experiments on hydrodynamic drag

First observation of the Josephson-Anderson relation in experiments on hydrodynamic drag
We verify a recent prediction (Eq. 3.50 in G. L. Eyink, Phys. Rev. X 11, 031054 (2021)) for the drag on an object moving through a fluid. In this prediction the velocity field is decomposed into a nonvortical (potential) and vortical contribution, and so is the associated drag force. In the Josephson-Anderson relation the vortical contribution of the drag force follows from the flux of vorticity traversing the streamlines of the corresponding potential flow. The potential component is directly …

The Enemy from Within: A Study of Political Delegitimization Discourse in Israeli Political Speech
We present the first large-scale computational study of political delegitimization discourse (PDD), defined as symbolic attacks on the normative validity of political entities. We curate and manually annotate a novel Hebrew-language corpus of 10,410 sentences drawn from Knesset speeches (1993-2023), Facebook posts (2018-2021), and leading news outlets, of which 1,812 instances (17.4\%) exhibit PDD and 642 carry additional annotations for intensity, incivility, target type, and affective framing…

Quantum-Safe Identity Verification using Relativistic Zero-Knowledge Proof Systems
Identity verification is the process of confirming an individual's claimed identity, which is essential in sectors like finance, healthcare, and online services to ensure security and prevent fraud. However, current password/PIN-based identity solutions are susceptible to phishing or skimming attacks, where malicious intermediaries attempt to steal credentials using fake identification portals. Alikhani et al. [Nature, 2021] began exploring identity verification through graph coloring-based rel…

Global Bifurcation of Spiral Wave Solutions to the Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equation
We use the $\mathbb T^2$-equivariant degree to establish the existence of unbounded branches of rotating spiral wave solutions with any number of arms for the complex Ginzburg Landau equation GLe on the planar unit disc, leveraging the spatial symmetries inherent to the problem and avoiding limiting constraints encountered in previous studies (Dai 2021) that utilized the classical Leray-Schauder degree. Our results provide rigorous mathematical justification for the formation and persistence of…

Enterprise Security Incident Analysis and Countermeasures Based on the T-Mobile Data Breach
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of T-Mobile's critical data breaches in 2021 and 2023, alongside a full-spectrum security audit targeting its systems, infrastructure, and publicly exposed endpoints. By combining case-based vulnerability assessments with active ethical hacking techniques--including Shodan reconnaissance, API misuse simulations, VNC brute-forcing, firmware reverse engineering, and web application scans--we uncover structural weaknesses persisting beyond the initial b…
