The Role of Follow Networks and Twitter's Content Recommender on Partisan Skew and Rumor Exposure during the 2022 U.S. Midterm Election
Social media platforms shape users' experiences through the algorithmic systems they deploy. In this study, we examine to what extent Twitter's content recommender, in conjunction with a user's social network, impacts the topic, political skew, and reliability of information served on the platform during a high-stakes election. We utilize automated accounts to document Twitter's algorithmically curated and reverse chronological timelines throughout the U.S. 2022 midterm election. We find that t…

When Your Reviewer is an LLM: Biases, Divergence, and Prompt Injection Risks in Peer Review
Peer review is the cornerstone of academic publishing, yet the process is increasingly strained by rising submission volumes, reviewer overload, and expertise mismatches. Large language models (LLMs) are now being used as "reviewer aids," raising concerns about their fairness, consistency, and robustness against indirect prompt injection attacks. This paper presents a systematic evaluation of LLMs as academic reviewers. Using a curated dataset of 1,441 papers from ICLR 2023 and NeurIPS 2022, we…

Beyond the Oracle Property: Adaptive LASSO in Cointegrating Regressions
This paper establishes new asymptotic results for the adaptive LASSO estimator in cointegrating regression models. We study model selection probabilities, estimator consistency, and limiting distributions under both standard and moving-parameter asymptotics. We also derive uniform convergence rates and the fastest local-to-zero rates that can still be detected by the estimator, complementing and extending the results of Lee, Shi, and Gao (2022, Journal of Econometrics, 229, 322--349).

Efficient Estimation of Temporal Exceeding Probability for Ship Responses in Broadband Wave Fields
In this paper, we develop an efficient method to evaluate the temporal exceeding probability of ship motion (percentage of time for the ship motion to be above a given high threshold) in an irregular wave field. Our method builds on our previous work of Gong et al. (Applied Ocean Research, 2022), which converts the calculation into a sampling problem in the space of wave group parameters, within which an acquisition-based sequential sampling method is developed to reduce the number of required …

Characterization of the Trans-Alfvénic Region Using Observations from Parker Solar Probe
Close to Earth the solar wind is usually super-Alfvénic, i.e. the speed of the solar wind is much larger than the Alfvén speed. However, in the lower coronal regions, the solar wind is mostly sub-Alfvénic. With the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) crossing the boundary between the sub- and super-Alfvénic flow, Bandyopadhyay et al. (2022) performed a turbulence characterization of the sub-Alfvénic solar wind with initial data from encounters 8 and 9. In this study, we re-examine the turbulence prop…

Linear recoloring diameter of degenerate chordal graphs and bounded treewidth graphs
Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and $t$ an integer. The reconfiguration graph of $G$, denoted by $R_t(G)$, consists of all $t$-colorings of $G$ and two $t$-colorings are adjacent if they differ on exactly one vertex. The $t$-recoloring diameter of $G$ is the diameter of $R_t(G)$. For a $d$-degenerate graph $G$, $R_t(G)$ is connected when $t \ge d+2$~(Dyer et al., 2006). Furthermore, the $t$-recoloring diameter is $O(n^2)$ when $t \ge 3(d+1)/2$~(Bousquet et al., 2022), and it is $O(n)$ when $…

Evolution of JWST Contingency Payload Operations for Mitigating NIRSpec Micro-shutter Array Electrical Shorts
The Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) is one of four science instruments on board the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which began routine operations in July 2022. As JWST's primary spectroscopic instrument for faint, distant targets, NIRSpec plays a central role in several of the mission's core science goals. Its signature multi-object spectroscopy (MOS) mode enables the simultaneous acquisition of spectra for up to a hundred targets across the field of view, using a micro-shutter array (…

An adaptive procedure for detecting replicated signals with $k$-family-wise error rate control
Partial conjunction (PC) hypothesis testing is widely used to assess the replicability of scientific findings across multiple comparable studies. In high-throughput meta-analyses, testing a large number of PC hypotheses with k-family-wise error rate (k-FWER) control often suffers from low statistical power due to the multiplicity burden. The state-of-the-art AdaFilter-Bon procedure by Wang et al. (2022, Ann. Stat., 50(4), 1890-1909) alleviates this problem by filtering out hypotheses unlikely t…

On the Structural Parameterizations of 2-Club with Triangle Constraints
Given an undirected graph G = (V, E) and an integer k, the s-Club asks if Gcontains a vertex subset S of at least k vertices such that G[S] has diameter at most s. Recently, Vertex r-Triangle s-Club, and Edge r-Triangle s-Club that generalize the notion of s-Club have been studied by Garvardt et al. [TOCS-2023, IWOCA-2022] from the perspective of parameterized complexity. Given a graph G and an integer k, the Vertex r-Triangle s-Club asks if there is an s-Club S with at least k vertices such th…

Quantum criticality in cuprate superconductors revealed by optical conductivity measurement
The ubiquitous temperature ($T$)-linear behaviour of the transport scattering rate in the normal state of strongly correlated electron systems is called strange metallicity \cite{zaanen:2004,phillips:2022,hartnoll:2022,chowdhury:2022,yuan:2022}. Although strange metallicity is crucial to understanding superconductivity in correlated electron systems, its origin remains elusive to date \cite{hussey:2023}.

The hot-electron closure of the moment-based gyrokinetic plasma model
We derive the hot-electron limit (HEL) closure of the moment hierarchy used to solve the gyrokinetic equations, denoted as gyromoment (GM). By expanding gyroaveraging kernels in the small temperature ratio Ti/Te limit and retaining only essential O(Ti/Te) terms, we obtain a closed system for density, parallel velocity, and parallel and perpendicular temperatures. In the Z-pinch geometry, the GM system with HEL closure is analytically equivalent to the one developed by Ivanov et al. (2022). Nume…
