Nematic Fluctuations and Electronic Correlations in Heavily Hole-Doped Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ Probed by Elastoresistance
This work investigates nematic fluctuations and electronic correlations in the hole-doped iron pnictide superconductor Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ by means of longitudinal and transverse elastoresistance measurements over a wide doping range ($0.63 < x < 0.98$). For this purpose, the orbital character of the electronic response was revealed by decomposition of the elastoresistance into the $A_{1g}$ and $B_{2g}$ symmetry channels. It was shown that at lower doping levels nematic fluctuations in …

Abstract: We consider back-ground gas collision shifts in ion-based clocks. We give both a classical and quantum description of a collision between an ion and a polarizable particle with a simple hard-sphere repulsion. Both descriptions give consistent results, which shows that a collision shift bound is determined by the classical Langevin collision rate reduced by a readily calculated factor describing the decoupling of the clock laser from the ion due to the recoil motion. We also show that the result holds when using a more general Lennard-Jones potential to describe the interaction between the ion and its collision partner. This leads to a simple bound for the collision shift applicable to any single ion clock without resorting to large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations or determination of molecular potential energy curves describing the collision. It also provides a relatively straightforward means to measure the relevant collision rate.

Sublinear Metric Steiner Forest via Maximal Independent Set
In this work we consider the Metric Steiner Forest problem in the sublinear time model. Given a set $V$ of $n$ points in a metric space where distances are provided by means of query access to an $n\times n$ distance matrix, along with a set of $k$ terminal pairs $(s_1,t_1), \dots, (s_k,t_k)\in V\times V$, the goal is to find a minimum-weight subset of edges that connects each terminal pair. Although sublinear time algorithms have been studied for estimating the weight of a minimum spanning tre…

Do Large Language Models Respect Contracts? Evaluating and Enforcing Contract-Adherence in Code Generation
Prevailing code generation benchmarks, such as HumanEval+ and MBPP+, primarily evaluate large language models (LLMs) with pass@k on functional correctness using well-formed inputs. However, they ignore a crucial aspect of real-world software: adherence to contracts-the preconditions and validity constraints that dictate how ill-formed inputs must be rejected. This critical oversight means that existing benchmarks fail to measure, and models consequently fail to generate, truly robust and reliab…
