Updated comparison of the UHECR energy spectra measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory and the Telescope Array
The Pierre Auger and Telescope Array joint Working Group on the UHECR energy spectrum was established in 2012 to analyze energy scale uncertainties in both experiments and to in vestigate their systematic differences, particularly in the spectral shape of the flux measurements. Previous studies have indeed shown that, within systematic uncertainties, the energy s pectra measured by the two observatories are consistent below~$10\,\mathrm{EeV}$. However, at higher energies, a significant differen…

D1-brane correction to a line operator index
Wilson line operators in the rank $k$ totally symmetric tensor representation of ${\cal N}=4$ $U(N)$ sypersymmetric Yang-Mills theories are expected to be realized as D3-branes expanded in $AdS_5$. Although there is a mismatch between the corresponding line operator indices even in the large $N$ and large $k$ limit, it is possible to calculate the finite $k$ correction on the AdS side as the contribution from D1-branes. We analyze D1-brane fluctuation modes and calculate the leading finite $k$ …

Archetype-Aware Predictive Autoscaling with Uncertainty Quantification for Serverless Workloads on Kubernetes
High-performance extreme computing (HPEC) platforms increasingly adopt serverless paradigms, yet face challenges in efficiently managing highly dynamic workloads while maintaining service-level objectives (SLOs). We propose **AAPA**, an archetype-aware predictive autoscaling system that leverages weak supervision to automatically classify 300\,000\,+ workload windows into four archetypes (PERIODIC, SPIKE, RAMP, STATIONARY\_NOISY) with 99.8\% accuracy. Evaluation on publicly available Azure Func…

Last-Iterate Convergence of No-Regret Learning for Equilibria in Bargaining Games
Bargaining games, where agents attempt to agree on how to split utility, are an important class of games used to study economic behavior, which motivates a study of online learning algorithms in these games. In this work, we tackle when no-regret learning algorithms converge to Nash equilibria in bargaining games. Recent results have shown that online algorithms related to Follow the Regularized Leader (FTRL) converge to Nash equilibria (NE) in the last iterate in a wide variety of games, inclu…

Quando eu andei na política, gastei montes de tempo e ganhei montes de cabelos brancos a defender que nas eleições autšrquicas fazia todo o sentido o BE arranjar coligações com outras forças políticas com que fizesse sentido localmente colaborar. Ninguém me ligou peva.
Pelos vistos era preciso uma derrota brutal primeiro.
Mas agora, suspeito, jš vão tarde.

Fox and YouTube agree to ‘short-term extension’ as distribution negotiations continue
Fox and YouTube TV on Wednesday agreed to an eleventh-hour short-term extension to their distribution deal, narrowly avoiding a blackout of all Fox’s content on the platform.
