Infinite-dimensional Lagrange-Dirac systems with boundary energy flow II: Field theories with bundle-valued forms
Fran\c{c}ois Gay-Balmaz, \'Alvaro Rodr\'iguez Abella, Hiroaki Yoshimura

arXiv:2511.05687v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Part I of this paper introduced the infinite dimensional Lagrange--Dirac theory for physical systems on the space of differential forms over a smooth manifold with boundary. This approach is particularly well-suited for systems involving energy exchange through the boundary, as it is built upon a restricted dual space -a vector subspace of the topological dual of the configuration space- that captures information about both the interior dynamics and boundary interactions. Consequently, the resulting dynamical equations naturally incorporate boundary energy flow. In this second part, the theory is extended to encompass vector-bundle-valued differential forms and non-Abelian gauge theories. To account for two commonly used forms of energy flux and boundary power densities, we introduce two distinct but equivalent formulations of the restricted dual. The results are derived from both geometric and variational viewpoints and are illustrated through applications to matter and gauge field theories. The interaction between gauge and matter fields is also addressed, along with the associated boundary conditions, applied to the case of the Yang-Mills-Higgs equations.

Deformation quantisation of exact shifted symplectic structures, with an application to vanishing cycles
J. P. Pridham
https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.07602 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2511.07602 https://arxiv.org/html/2511.07602
arXiv:2511.07602v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We extend the author's and CPTVV's correspondence between shifted symplectic and Poisson structures to establish a correspondence between exact shifted symplectic structures and non-degenerate shifted Poisson structures with formal derivation, a concept generalising constructions by De Wilde and Lecomte. Our formulation is sufficiently general to encompass derived algebraic, analytic and $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}$ stacks, as well as Lagrangians and non-commutative generalisations. We also show that non-degenerate shifted Poisson structures with formal derivation carry unique self-dual deformation quantisations in any setting where the latter can be formulated.
One application is that for (not necessarily exact) $0$-shifted symplectic structures in analytic and $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}$ settings, it follows that the author's earlier parametrisations of quantisations are in fact independent of any choice of associator, and generalise Fedosov's parametrisation of quantisations for classical manifolds.
Our main application is to complex $(-1)$-shifted symplectic structures, showing that our unique quantisation of the canonical exact structure, a sheaf of twisted $BD_0$-algebras with derivation, gives rise to BBDJS's perverse sheaf of vanishing cycles, equipped with its monodromy operator.

Finite-length flux tube in the dual Ginzburg-Landau theory on the dual lattice
The dual Ginzburg-Landau (DGL) theory is one of the nonperturbative effective field theories of QCD. The DGL theory describes the QCD vacuum as a dual superconductor and possesses electric flux-tube solutions via the dual Meissner effect, which applies to the quark confinement mechanism. We demonstrate a powerful numerical method for solving the field equations in the DGL theory with U(1) dual gauge symmetry. An essential aspect of our method is to formulate the DGL theory on the dual lattice, …

Any sufficiently advanced disaster preparedness is indistinguishable from revolutionary dual power. This essay is a bit of a transition between the theory I've written earlier, and more concrete plans.
Even though I only touched on my life on the commune, it was hard not to write more. These are such weird spaces, with so much invisible opportunity. But they're also just so unique and special. For all the stress and uncertainty of making sure you stayed on Lorean's (the head priestess), there were also those long summer nights with the whole community (except the old lady) gathered around a fire, talking and drinking. There was almost a child-like play to the whole time.
There were so Fridays I'd come home with a couple of gallons of beer from the real world, folks would bring things from the garden, someone would grill a steak, everyone who didn't cook would clean up, and we'd just hang out and have fun. So many evenings I'd go over to Miles place with a guitar, or with his guitar, and we'd pass it around over a few beers, talking about philosophy, Star Wars, or some book or other. It's hard not to write about the strange magic of that space.
My partner and I bonded over similar experiences, mine on a weird little religious commune in California and theirs as a temporary worker at Omega Institute. Both had exploitation, people on weird power trips, frustrating dynamics, but also a strange magic and freedom. Both were sort of fantasy worlds, but places that let us see through this one, let us imagine something that something else is possible behind the veil.
There are many such veils.

Coherence of Supermassive Black Hole Binary Demographics with the nHz Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background
We present a refined estimation of the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) based on observed dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) together with AGN X-ray luminosity functions, in light of recent Pulsar Timing Array detections of an nHz SGWB. We identify a characteristic luminosity dependence in dual AGN fractions by compiling recent observational datasets, providing crucial constraints on supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) populations. Our AGN-based model reproduces the current SG…

Serial-Parallel Dual-Path Architecture for Speaking Style Recognition
Speaking Style Recognition (SSR) identifies a speaker's speaking style characteristics from speech. Existing style recognition approaches primarily rely on linguistic information, with limited integration of acoustic information, which restricts recognition accuracy improvements. The fusion of acoustic and linguistic modalities offers significant potential to enhance recognition performance. In this paper, we propose a novel serial-parallel dual-path architecture for SSR that leverages acoustic…

Dual-Waveguide Pinching Antennas for PLS: Parallel Placement or Orthogonal Placement?
Pinching antennas (PAs), as an emerging flexible-antenna technology, enables movable PAs deployed along waveguides to customize channel conditions over a large scale. This paper investigates an application of PAs to enable physical-layer security (PLS) by enlarging the channel condition diversity between legitimate users (LUs) and eavesdroppers (Eves). Particularly, we focus on the dual-waveguide scenario, where the two waveguides employs multiple PAs to serve multiple LUs in the presence of an…

LLM-REVal: Can We Trust LLM Reviewers Yet?
The rapid advancement of large language models (LLMs) has inspired researchers to integrate them extensively into the academic workflow, potentially reshaping how research is practiced and reviewed. While previous studies highlight the potential of LLMs in supporting research and peer review, their dual roles in the academic workflow and the complex interplay between research and review bring new risks that remain largely underexplored. In this study, we focus on how the deep integration of LLM…

ProtoSiTex: Learning Semi-Interpretable Prototypes for Multi-label Text Classification
The surge in user-generated reviews has amplified the need for interpretable models that can provide fine-grained insights. Existing prototype-based models offer intuitive explanations but typically operate at coarse granularity (sentence or document level) and fail to address the multi-label nature of real-world text classification. We propose ProtoSiTex, a semi-interpretable framework designed for fine-grained multi-label text classification. ProtoSiTex employs a dual-phase alternating traini…

Near Invariance of The Dual Compressed Shift
We present the notion of the nearly dual compressed shift-invariant subspaces of the orthogonal complement of the model space and obtain their structure using Hitt's algorithm \cite{DH}.

The case for my 28g QRP dual-ported (9:1 and 49:1) unun cracked from tightening one of the terminal screws too tight, and from having printed the box with too few perimeters, so it wasn't really strong enough. I had designed it so that the coax was integrated into the case, so I had to cut the case apart to remove the still-functional electrical components for re-use.
At least this gave me a chance to confirm that I hadn't blown up the ferrite from overheating it!

Periods detecting Eisenstein series and sums of $L$-values I
We study the automorphic period associated to a $G$-Hamiltonian variety $M$ whose dual is $\check{M} = T^*(\check{G}/\check{L})$, where $\check{G}$ is a general linear group and $\check{L}$ is a Levi subgroup. For certain cuspidal Eisenstein series, we prove that their period is equal to a finite sum of special values of $L$-functions. This sum is indexed by the fixed points of the associated extended $L$-parameter on $\check{M}$, confirming a conjecture by Ben-Zvi-Sakellaridis-Venkatesh in thi…

Dual Data Scaling for Robust Two-Stage User-Defined Keyword Spotting
In this paper, we propose DS-KWS, a two-stage framework for robust user-defined keyword spotting. It combines a CTC-based method with a streaming phoneme search module to locate candidate segments, followed by a QbyT-based method with a phoneme matcher module for verification at both the phoneme and utterance levels. To further improve performance, we introduce a dual data scaling strategy: (1) expanding the ASR corpus from 460 to 1,460 hours to strengthen the acoustic model; and (2) leveraging…

Certain classes of multiparameter persistence modules may be encoded as signed barcodes, represented as points in a polyhedral subset of Euclidean space, we refer to as signed persistence diagrams. These signed persistence diagrams exist in the dual space of compactly supported, Lipschitz functionals on a polyhedral pair. In the interest of statistics and machine learning on multiparameter persistence modules, we aim to embed these signed persistence diagrams into Banach or Hilbert space. We us…

Mainly, we investigate how the Fiedler partition of the dual graph and show that it appears to correlate with the decision boundary -- in the case of binary classification. Additionally, we compute the homology of the cellular decomposition -- in a regr…

We also carry forward a thorough investigation of gradients, diverg…

BridgeCode: A Dual Speech Representation Paradigm for Autoregressive Zero-Shot Text-to-Speech Synthesis
Autoregressive (AR) frameworks have recently achieved remarkable progress in zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) by leveraging discrete speech tokens and large language model techniques. Despite their success, existing AR-based zero-shot TTS systems face two critical limitations: (i) an inherent speed-quality trade-off, as sequential token generation either reduces frame rates at the cost of expressiveness or enriches tokens at the cost of efficiency, and (ii) a text-oriented supervision mismatch, a…

In this thesis, the AdS/CFT correspondence is used as a tool to explore novel AdS$_5$ Supergravity backgrounds (containing five-dimensional Anti-de Sitter spacetime) and their dual (four dimensional) Conformal Field Theory descriptions. In order to obtain precise results, both conformal symmetry and supersymmetry play an important role. However, in order to align with experimental observation, supersymmetry must be broken at low energies. In the absence of supersymmetry, finding deformations of…

CoIRL-AD: Collaborative-Competitive Imitation-Reinforcement Learning in Latent World Models for Autonomous Driving
End-to-end autonomous driving models trained solely with imitation learning (IL) often suffer from poor generalization. In contrast, reinforcement learning (RL) promotes exploration through reward maximization but faces challenges such as sample inefficiency and unstable convergence. A natural solution is to combine IL and RL. Moving beyond the conventional two-stage paradigm (IL pretraining followed by RL fine-tuning), we propose CoIRL-AD, a competitive dual-policy framework that enables IL an…

How do we describe non-trivial bulk measurements relative to an observer (i.e. relationally) when both the observer and the system it probes may/may not evolve in time? How can we interpret this holographically; particularly for zero-energy BPS states in supersymmetric theories?

Characterizing nonconvex boundaries via scalarization
We present a unified approach for characterizing the boundary of a possibly nonconvex domain. Motivated by the well-known Pascoletti--Serafini method of scalarization, we recast the boundary characterization as a multi-criteria optimization problem with respect to a local partial order induced by a spherical cone with varying orient. Such an approach enables us to trace the whole boundary and can be considered a general dual representation for arbitrary (nonconvex) sets satisfying an exterior c…
