LM Fight Arena: Benchmarking Large Multimodal Models via Game Competition
Existing benchmarks for large multimodal models (LMMs) often fail to capture their performance in real-time, adversarial environments. We introduce LM Fight Arena (Large Model Fight Arena), a novel framework that evaluates LMMs by pitting them against each other in the classic fighting game Mortal Kombat II, a task requiring rapid visual understanding and tactical, sequential decision-making. In a controlled tournament, we test six leading open- and closed-source models, where each agent operat…

Drawing Conclusions from Draws: Rethinking Preference Semantics in Arena-Style LLM Evaluation
In arena-style evaluation of large language models (LLMs), two LLMs respond to a user query, and the user chooses the winning response or deems the "battle" a draw, resulting in an adjustment to the ratings of both models. The prevailing approach for modeling these rating dynamics is to view battles as two-player game matches, as in chess, and apply the Elo rating system and its derivatives. In this paper, we critically examine this paradigm. Specifically, we question whether a draw genuinely m…

ARENA: A tool for measuring and analysing the energy efficiency of Android apps
To build energy-efficient apps, there is a need to estimate and analyze their energy consumption in typical usage scenarios. The energy consumption of Android apps could be estimated via software-based and hardware-based approaches. Software-based approaches, while easier to implement, are not as accurate as hardware-based approaches. The process of measuring the energy consumption of an Android app via a hardware-based approach typically involves 1) setting up a measurement environment, 2) exe…

MLIP Arena: Advancing Fairness and Transparency in Machine Learning Interatomic Potentials via an Open, Accessible Benchmark Platform
Machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) have revolutionized molecular and materials modeling, but existing benchmarks suffer from data leakage, limited transferability, and an over-reliance on error-based metrics tied to specific density functional theory (DFT) references. We introduce MLIP Arena, a benchmark platform that evaluates force field performance based on physics awareness, chemical reactivity, stability under extreme conditions, and predictive capabilities for thermodynamic p…

Quantum criticality at the end of a pseudogap phase in superconducting infinite-layer nickelates
In many unconventional superconductors, the strange-metal regime is thought to emerge from quantum criticality, yet in cuprates this link is obscured by the enigmatic pseudogap. Superconducting infinite-layer nickelates provide a new arena to test this paradigm but are constrained to thin films, precluding calorimetry. We use the Seebeck coefficient as a low-temperature proxy for entropy per carrier and uncover a clear quantum-critical thermodynamic signature: in La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$NiO$_2$ at the …

Deep Associations, High Creativity: A Simple yet Effective Metric for Evaluating Large Language Models
The evaluation of LLMs' creativity represents a crucial research domain, though challenges such as data contamination and costly human assessments often impede progress. Drawing inspiration from human creativity assessment, we propose PACE, asking LLMs to generate Parallel Association Chains to Evaluate their creativity. PACE minimizes the risk of data contamination and offers a straightforward, highly efficient evaluation, as evidenced by its strong correlation with Chatbot Arena Creative Writ…

State-dependent brain responsiveness, from local circuits to the whole brain
The objective of this paper is to review physiological and computational aspects of the responsiveness of the cerebral cortex to stimulation, and how responsiveness depends on the state of the system. This correspondence between brain state and brain responsiveness (state-dependent responses) is outlined at different scales from the cellular and circuit level, to the mesoscale and macroscale level. At each scale, we review how quantitative methods can be used to characterize network states base…

Topological Structure of Infrared QCD

Abstract: We investigate the infrared structure of QCD within the adiabatic approximation, where soft gluon configurations evolve slowly compared to the fermionic modes. In this formulation, the functional space of gauge connections replaces spacetime as the natural arena for the theory, and the long-distance behavior is encoded in quantized Berry phases associated with the infrared clouds. Our results suggest that the infrared sector of QCD exhibits features reminiscent of a \emph{topological phase}, similar to those encountered in condensed-matter systems, where topological protection replaces dynamical confinement at low energies. In this geometric framework, color-neutral composites such as quark--gluon and gluon--gluon clouds arise as topological bound states described by functional holonomies. Illustrative applications to hadronic excitations are discussed within this approach, including mesonic and baryonic examples. This perspective provides a unified picture of infrared dressing and topological quantization, establishing a natural bridge between non-Abelian gauge theory, adiabatic Berry phases, and the topology of the space of gauge configurations.

BigCodeArena: Unveiling More Reliable Human Preferences in Code Generation via Execution
Crowdsourced model evaluation platforms, such as Chatbot Arena, enable real-time evaluation from human perspectives to assess the quality of model responses. In the coding domain, manually examining the quality of LLM-generated content is extremely challenging, as it requires understanding long chunks of raw code and deliberately simulating code execution. To this end, we introduce BigCodeArena, an open human evaluation platform for code generation backed by a comprehensive and on-the-fly execu…

Emergent spacetime supersymmetry at 2D fractionalized quantum criticality
While experimental evidence for spacetime supersymmetry (SUSY) in particle physics remains elusive, condensed matter systems offer a promising arena for its emergence at quantum critical points (QCPs). Although there have been a variety of proposals for emergent SUSY at symmetry-breaking QCPs, the emergence of SUSY at fractionalized QCPs remains largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate emergent space-time SUSY at a fractionalized QCP in the Kitaev honeycomb model with Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH)…

Feedback Forensics: A Toolkit to Measure AI Personality
Some traits making a "good" AI model are hard to describe upfront. For example, should responses be more polite or more casual? Such traits are sometimes summarized as model character or personality. Without a clear objective, conventional benchmarks based on automatic validation struggle to measure such traits.
