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 …

PIC12F683 sample 2H6, after 14 HF etch cycles and a clean.
This sample has now been imaged 30 times, ranging from fresh after decap to the current state, after each etch, after cleaning passes to remove loose debris, and sometimes at both 20x and 100x in the same state.
This sample is now mostly at via1, but there's still upper layer visible in the seal ring and in the analog IPs.
It's now imaging at 100x. Things go slow because a full focus-stacked 100x image is 10…

Dimension-Free Minimax Rates for Learning Pairwise Interactions in Attention-Style Models
We study the convergence rate of learning pairwise interactions in single-layer attention-style models, where tokens interact through a weight matrix and a non-linear activation function. We prove that the minimax rate is $M^{-\frac{2β}{2β+1}}$ with $M$ being the sample size, depending only on the smoothness $β$ of the activation, and crucially independent of token count, ambient dimension, or rank of the weight matrix. These results highlight a fundamental dimension-free statistical efficie…

A classification of mode-1 internal solitary waves in a three-layer fluid
We explore the bifurcation structure of mode-1 solitary waves in a three-layer fluid confined between two rigid boundaries. A recent study (Lamb, J. Fluid Mech. 2023, 962, A17) proposed a method to predict the coexistence of solitary waves with opposite polarity in a continuously stratified fluid with a double pycnocline by examining the conjugate states for the Euler equations. We extend this line of inquiry to a piecewise-constant three-layer stratification, taking advantage of the fact that …

Systematic evolution of superconducting pairing strength and Seebeck coefficients in correlated infinite-layer La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$NiO$_2$
The recently discovered superconducting infinite-layer nickelates offer a novel platform to explore an exotic pairing mechanism in multi-band systems towards high-temperature superconductivity and associated rich quantum phases, contrasting with cuprates. Here, we show that infinite-layer (La,Sr)NiO$_2$ exhibits strong-coupling superconductivity, resilient to in-plane magnetic fields exceeding 47 T at optimal doping - more than twice the Pauli limit for conventional BCS superconductors.

Learning What's Missing: Attention Dispersion and EMA Stabilization in Length Generalization
We study length generalization in transformers through the set complement task, where a model must predict a uniform distribution over tokens absent from an input sequence -- an ability central to board-game style reasoning. Our main theoretical result establishes two statements. First, we prove tight bounds on embedding and value dimensions for single-layer attention-only transformers. Second, we show that if such a model achieves balanced logit displacement at lengths 1 and 2, then it must ge…

This paper presents the characterisation and testing of the first wafer-scale monolithic stitched sensor (MOSS) prototype developed for the ALICE ITS3 upgrade that is to be installed during the LHC Long Shutdown 3 (2026-2030). The MOSS chip design is driven by the truly cylindrical detector geometry that imposes that each layer is built out of two wafer-sized, bent silicon chips. The stitching technique is employed to fabricate sensors with dimensions of 1.4 $\times$ 25.9 cm, thinned to 50 $μ$…

Calyx: Privacy-Preserving Multi-Token Optimistic-Rollup Protocol
Rollup protocols have recently received significant attention as a promising class of Layer 2 (L2) scalability solutions. By utilizing the Layer 1 (L1) blockchain solely as a bulletin board for a summary of the executed transactions and state changes, rollups enable secure off-chain execution while avoiding the complexity of other L2 mechanisms. However, to ensure data availability, current rollup protocols require the plaintext of executed transactions to be published on-chain, resulting in in…

Spinon Mediation of Witness-Spin Dynamics and Ground State in Herbertsmithite
The kagome lattice of spin-1/2 Cu atoms in herbertsmithite (ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2) may sustain a quantum spin liquid (QSL) state with spinon quasiparticles. Each kagome plane is separated from its homologues by a layer of spinless Zn atoms. Providentially, however, some spin-1/2 Cu atoms substitute randomly onto these inter-kagome Zn sites. We reconceptualize these 'impurity' atoms as quantum 'witness-spins', an exceptional new interrogative of the conjectured Z2-gauge-symmetric QSL state. Thus we intr…

Remarks on the reinforcement of the spectrum of an elliptic problem with Robin boundary condition
We investigate the spectral properties of a differential elliptic operator on $H^1(\barΩ\cup Σ)$, where $Ω$ is a smooth domain surrounded by a layer $Σ$. The thickness of the layer is given by $\varepsilon h$, where $h$ is a positive function defined on the boundary $\partial Ω$ and $\varepsilon$ is the ellipticity constant of the operator in $Σ$. We prove that, in the limit for $\varepsilon$ going to $0$, the spectrum converges to the spectrum of a differential elliptic operator in $H^1(…

Impact of Wind Direction on Flow Over a Realistic Urban Area: A Large-Eddy Simulation Study
We conducted high-resolution large-eddy simulations over a real urban district in Barcelona to examine the impact of wind direction on near-ground flow. The computational mesh resolves over 500 million degrees of freedom, with a spatial resolution on the order of 1 m at pedestrian level. This allows a detailed analysis of mean velocity and turbulence patterns within the canopy layer. Although instantaneous flow fields differ significantly between cases, double-averaged profiles of velocity and …

Unaligned Incentives: Pricing Attacks Against Blockchain Rollups
Rollups have become the de facto scalability solution for Ethereum, securing more than $55B in assets. They achieve scale by executing transactions on a Layer 2 ledger, while periodically posting data and finalizing state on the Layer 1, either optimistically or via validity proofs. Their fees must simultaneously reflect the pricing of three resources: L2 costs (e.g., execution), L1 DA, and underlying L1 gas costs for batch settlement and proof verification. In this work, we identify critical m…

Third-order quantum phase transitions of bosonic non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall states
We study phase transitions in bilayer and trilayer bosonic quantum Hall systems. In the absence of interlayer tunneling and interaction, each layer is chosen to have filling factor $ν=1/2$ or $1$ to realize the Laughlin state or the Moore-Read state. By tuning interlayer tunneling and/or interaction, multiple phases can be generated. In the absence of interlayer interaction, three phase transitions appear when interlayer tunneling becomes sufficiently strong: (1) from two decoupled $ν=1/2$ La…
