Texans' Sheldon Rankins details frightening bout with meningitis, shingles during 2024 season

By the end of 2024, Israel’s military attacks had killed more than 45,000 Palestinians in Gaza – the majority women and children – and injured well over 100,000 people.
(From MAP email to supporters).
So why is the UK government only now slowly beginning to wake up to this #genocide in #Gaza?

Delivering medical care to Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees in the Palestinian Territories and in Lebanon.
Help us get urgent medical supplies into the hands of Palestinians in need.

Heh.

Bernstein-type dimension-free concentration for self-normalised martingales
We introduce a dimension-free Bernstein-type tail inequality for self-normalised martingales normalised by their predictable quadratic variation. As applications of our result, we propose solutions to the recent open problems posed by Mussi et al. (2024), providing computationally efficient confidence sequences for logistic regression with adaptively chosen RKHS-valued covariates, and establishing instance-adaptive regret bounds in the corresponding kernelised bandit setting.

Hacking Kia: Remotely Controlling Cars With Just a License Plate
On June 11th, 2024, we discovered a set of vulnerabilities in Kia vehicles that allowed remote control over key functions using only a license plate. These attacks could be executed remotely on any hardware-equipped vehicle in about 30 seconds, regardless of whether it had an active Kia Connect subscription.

The chemical yields of stars in the range 9-15 Msun
In Limongi et al. (2024) we presented and discussed the main evolutionary properties and final fate of stars in the mass range 7-15 Msun. The evolutions of those models were computed by means of a medium size nuclear network that guaranteed a proper calculation of the nuclear energy generation and hence a good modeling of the physical evolution of these stars. In the present paper, we extend this study by computing the detailed chemical yields of stars in the mass range 9-15 Msun, i.e., those s…

Measurements of enriched 155 Gd and 157Gd converters with the NMX detector on the nTOF EAR2 beam line at CERN
The detectors for the NMX instrument at the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund use natural Gd as the neutron converter. In 2024, beam time was obtained at the neutron time-of flight experiment (nTOF) at CERN to study the feasibility of an upgrade to enriched Gd. A 10 x 10 cm^2 prototype of the NMX detector was equipped with two enriched Gd samples (157Gd and 155Gd) that were attached with copper tape to the natural Gd cathode of the detector. Three sets of measurements were taken, with th…

Counting Small Induced Subgraphs: Scorpions Are Easy but Not Trivial
We consider the parameterized problem $\#$IndSub$(Φ)$ for fixed graph properties $Φ$: Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, this problem asks to count the number of induced $k$-vertex subgraphs satisfying $Φ$. Dörfler et al. [Algorithmica 2022] and Roth et al. [SICOMP 2024] conjectured that $\#$IndSub$(Φ)$ is $\#$W[1]-hard for all non-meager properties $Φ$, i.e., properties that are nontrivial for infinitely many $k$. This conjecture has been confirmed for several restricted types of prop…

On recurrence coefficients of classical orthogonal polynomials
In Lett. Math. Phys. 114, 54 (2024) and 115, 70 (2025), the author introduces what is presented as a novel method for determining whether a sequence of orthogonal polynomials is "classical", based solely on its initial recurrence coefficients. This note demonstrates that all the results contained in those works are already encompassed by two general theorems previously established in J. Math. Anal. Appl. 515 (2022), Article 126390.

APS Explorer: Navigating Algorithm Performance Spaces for Informed Dataset Selection
Dataset selection is crucial for offline recommender system experiments, as mismatched data (e.g., sparse interaction scenarios require datasets with low user-item density) can lead to unreliable results. Yet, 86\% of ACM RecSys 2024 papers provide no justification for their dataset choices, with most relying on just four datasets: Amazon (38\%), MovieLens (34\%), Yelp (15\%), and Gowalla (12\%). While Algorithm Performance Spaces (APS) were proposed to guide dataset selection, their adoption h…

The Complexity of Color-constrained Paths in Semicomplete Multipartite Digraphs
Every semicomplete multipartite digraph contains a quasi-Hamiltonian path, but the problem of finding a quasi-Hamiltonian path with prescribed start and end vertex is NP-complete even when restricted to semicomplete multipartite digraphs with independence number exactly 3. Bang-Jensen, Wang and Yeo (arXiv 2024) showed that deciding the presence of a quasi-Hamiltonian cycle which does not contain at least one vertex from each color class is NP-complete. Similarly, deciding the presence of a quas…

Quantum Boltzmann Machines using Parallel Annealing for Medical Image Classification
Exploiting the fact that samples drawn from a quantum annealer inherently follow a Boltzmann-like distribution, annealing-based Quantum Boltzmann Machines (QBMs) have gained increasing popularity in the quantum research community. While they harbor great promises for quantum speed-up, their usage currently stays a costly endeavor, as large amounts of QPU time are required to train them. This limits their applicability in the NISQ era. Following the idea of Noè et al. (2024), who tried to allev…

We provide for a wide class of zero-free regions an upper bound for the error term in the Prime Number Theorem, refining works of Pintz (1980), Johnston (2024), and Révész (2024). Our method does not only apply to the Riemann zeta function, but to general Beurling zeta functions. Next we construct Beurling zeta functions having infinitely many zeros on a prescribed contour, and none to the right, for a wide class of such contours. We also deduce an oscillation result for the corresponding err…
