Two coupled chiral SYK model
The chiral SYK model is an 1 + 1 dimensional generalisation of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model with chiral Majorana fermions. The Dyson-Schwinger equation of the model is exactly solvable in the large-N limit, leading to an exact analytic solution of the two-point function valid across all energy scales. We consider two chiral SYK systems coupled by a quadratic interaction that explicitly breaks the scaling and time reversal symmetry. We compute the two-point function analytically by solving the Dy…

Quantification of Sim2Real Gap via Neural Simulation Gap Function
In this paper, we introduce the notion of neural simulation gap functions, which formally quantifies the gap between the mathematical model and the model in the high-fidelity simulator, which closely resembles reality. Many times, a controller designed for a mathematical model does not work in reality because of the unmodelled gap between the two systems. With the help of this simulation gap function, one can use existing model-based tools to design controllers for the mathematical system and f…

Conservative quantum offline model-based optimization
Offline model-based optimization (MBO) refers to the task of optimizing a black-box objective function using only a fixed set of prior input-output data, without any active experimentation. Recent work has introduced quantum extremal learning (QEL), which leverages the expressive power of variational quantum circuits to learn accurate surrogate functions by training on a few data points. However, as widely studied in the classical machine learning literature, predictive models may incorrectly e…

FuncVul: An Effective Function Level Vulnerability Detection Model using LLM and Code Chunk
Software supply chain vulnerabilities arise when attackers exploit weaknesses by injecting vulnerable code into widely used packages or libraries within software repositories. While most existing approaches focus on identifying vulnerable packages or libraries, they often overlook the specific functions responsible for these vulnerabilities. Pinpointing vulnerable functions within packages or libraries is critical, as it can significantly reduce the risks associated with using open-source softw…

General Proximal Quasi-Newton Methods based on model functions for nonsmooth nonconvex problems
In this manuscript, we propose a general proximal quasi-Newton method tailored for nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problems, where we do not require the sequence of the variable metric (or Hessian approximation) to be uniformly bounded as a prerequisite, instead, the variable metric is updated by a continuous matrix generator. From the respective of the algorithm, the objective function is approximated by the so-called local model function and subproblems aim to exploit the proximal point(…

Existence results for the Cox-Ingersoll-Ross model with variable exponent diffusion
We propose a new stochastic model where the diffusion coefficient involves a state-dependent variable exponent function $p(\cdot)$. This new theoretically flexible framework generalizes the classical Cox-Ingersoll-Ross model. The existence, uniqueness, higher moment and martingale properties of solutions are analyzed. The validity and efficiency of the model is illustrated with numerical experiments.

Bayesian preference elicitation for decision support in multiobjective optimization
We present a novel approach to help decision-makers efficiently identify preferred solutions from the Pareto set of a multi-objective optimization problem. Our method uses a Bayesian model to estimate the decision-maker's utility function based on pairwise comparisons. Aided by this model, a principled elicitation strategy selects queries interactively to balance exploration and exploitation, guiding the discovery of high-utility solutions. The approach is flexible: it can be used interactively…

Regularity of a bulk-surface Cahn-Hilliard model driven by Leray velocity fields
We consider a convective bulk-surface Cahn--Hilliard system with dynamic boundary conditions and singular potentials. For this model, well-posedness results concerning weak and strong solutions have already been established in the literature. However, they require the prescribed velocity fields to belong to function spaces with high time regularity. In this paper, we prove that the well-posedness of weak solutions holds true under more general regularity assumptions on the velocity fields. Next…

Dissipation functions and Brownian oscillators
We develop a general framework for response theory in diffusion processes governed by Fokker-Planck equations, based on the notion of the Dissipation Function. Using the analytically solvable Brownian oscillator model, we derive exact response formulae for both overdamped and underdamped dynamics of harmonically bound Brownian particles. We also demonstrate that for certain observables and under suitable time scaling, the operations of model reduction and response formula extraction commute.

The Curie-Weiss model, originally used to study phase transitions in statistical mechanics, has been adapted to model phenomena in social sciences where many agents interact with each other. Reconstructing the probability measure of a Curie-Weiss model via the maximum likelihood method runs into the problem of computing the partition function which scales exponentially with the population. We study the estimation of the coupling parameters of a multi-group Curie-Weiss model using large populati…

SPOF perturbs a stabilized Taylor expanded polynomial approximation of a model's training loss function, where each user's data is privatized by calibrated noise added to the coefficients of the polynomial. Unlike gradient-based mechanisms such as differentially private stochastic gradient descent (DP-SGD), SPOF does not require inject…

For a model with $n$th-cousin mating $(n \geq 1)$, we obtain the generating function describin…

In the absence of static field, the electron and hole are always bound, forming an exciton regardless of the Coulomb interaction strength, in contrast to what occurs in higher-dimensional semiconductors. The static field modifies the wave function of the electron-hole pair, turning bound states into contin…

Pricing Options on Forwards in Function-Valued Affine Stochastic Volatility Models
We study the pricing of European-style options written on forward contracts within function-valued infinite-dimensional affine stochastic volatility models. The dynamics of the underlying forward price curves are modeled within the Heath-Jarrow-Morton-Musiela framework as solution to a stochastic partial differential equation modulated by a stochastic volatility process. We analyze two classes of affine stochastic volatility models: (i) a Gaussian model governed by a finite-rank Wishart process…

Reference-Free Iterative Learning Model Predictive Control with Neural Certificates
In this paper, we propose a novel reference-free iterative learning model predictive control (MPC). In the proposed method, a certificate function based on the concept of Control Lyapunov Barrier Function (CLBF) is learned using data collected from past control executions and used to define the terminal set and cost in the MPC optimization problem at the current iteration. This scheme enables the progressive refinement of the MPC's terminal components over successive iterations. Unlike existing…

We describe a generalization of the notion of a Hilbert space model of a function $φ$ in the Schur-Agler class of the polydisc. This generalization is well adapted to the investigation of boundary behavior of $φ$ at a mild singularity $τ$ on the $d$-torus. We prove the existence of a generalized model with an enhanced continuity property at such a singularity $τ$. We use this result to prove the directional differentiability of a function $φ$ in the Schur-Agler class at a singular point on…

Landmark Detection for Medical Images using a General-purpose Segmentation Model
Radiographic images are a cornerstone of medical diagnostics in orthopaedics, with anatomical landmark detection serving as a crucial intermediate step for information extraction. General-purpose foundational segmentation models, such as SAM (Segment Anything Model), do not support landmark segmentation out of the box and require prompts to function. However, in medical imaging, the prompts for landmarks are highly specific. Since SAM has not been trained to recognize such landmarks, it cannot …

We propose a new dark energy (DE) model from four parameter generalized entropy function of apparent horizon in a spatially flat universe. Such kind of generalized entropy is able to generalize all the known entropies proposed so far, for suitable representations of the entropic parameters. It turns out that the scenario can describe the correct thermal history of the universe, with the sequence of matter and dark energy epochs. Comparing with the $Λ$CDM model, the proposed generalized entropi…

We establish a strong coupling between the Liouville model and the Gaussian free field on the two dimensional torus in the $L^1$ phase $β\in (0, 8π)$, such that the difference of the two fields is a Hölder continuous function. The coupling originates from a Polchinski renormalisation group approach, which was previously used to prove analogous results for other Euclidean field theories in dimension two. Our main observations for the Liouville model are that the Polchinski flow has a definite…

A Stable and Principled Loss Function for Direct Language Model Alignment
The alignment of large language models (LLMs) with human preferences is commonly achieved through Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF). Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) simplified this paradigm by establishing a direct mapping between the optimal policy and a reward function, eliminating the need for an explicit reward model. However, we argue that the DPO loss function is theoretically misaligned with its own derivation, as it promotes the indefinite maximization of a logits d…

Suppression of blow-up in 3-D Keller-Segel system with fractional diffusion via Couette flow in whole space
In this paper, we consider a Keller-Segel model with a fractional diffusion term in $\mathbb{R}^3$ in the background of a Couette flow. We show that when the background Couette flow is large enough, the dissipation enhancement induced could prevent the blow-up of solutions and thus prove the global existence and also obtain time decay rates of the solution in $L^p$ norm. The main tool of the proof is a corresponding Green's function and the key estimate is its $L^1$ estimate without singulariti…

Furthermore, we establish that in this modified quasispecies model, defined on a single-peak fitness landscape, in the presence of…

Enhancing Wildlife Density Estimation: A New Two-Parameter Detection Function for Line Transect Sampling
Accurate estimation of wildlife density is vital for effective ecological monitoring, conservation, and management. Line transect sampling, a central technique in distance sampling, relies on selecting an appropriate detection function to model the probability of detecting individuals as a function of their distance from the transect line. In this study, we propose a novel two-parameter detection function that extends the flexibility of traditional models such as the half-normal and exponential…

Interaction-induced nematic Dirac semimetal from quadratic band touching: A constrained-path quantum Monte Carlo study
Electronic systems with quadratic band touchings, commonly found in two- and three-dimensional materials such as Bernal-stacked bilayer graphene, kagome metals, HgTe, and pyrochlore iridates, have attracted significant interest concerning the role of interactions in shaping their electronic properties. However, even in the simplest model of spinless fermions on a two-dimensional checkerboard lattice, the quantum phase diagram as a function of nearest-neighbor interaction remains under debate. W…

Simulating from marginal structural models for hazards, cause-specific hazards and subdistribution hazards using general copulas
Seaman and Keogh (Biometrical Journal 2024) proposed a method for simulating data compatible with a marginal structural model (MSM) for the hazard of a survival time outcome. In this short report, I propose two extensions of this method. First, Seaman and Keogh favoured the use of a Gaussian copula, because this enables the function of the confounder history through which the hazard of failure depends on confounders to be interpreted as a risk score. Here, I describe how this interpretation can…

Supercritical phase of the random connection model
Given $d \in {\bf N}, λ>0$, the random connection model in a region $A \subseteq {\bf R}^d$ is a graph with vertex set given by a homogeneous Poisson point process of intensity $λ$ in $A$, with an edge placed between each pair $x,y$ of vertices with probability $ϕ(\|x-y\|)$, where $ϕ: {\bf R}_+ \to [0,1]$ is a nonincreasing finite-range connection function. We show that if $d \geq 3$ and $λ$ is strictly supercritical for $A = {\bf R}^d$, then the model remains supercritical if it…

Partition function of 2D Coulomb gases with radially symmetric potentials and a hard wall
The large $N$ asymptotic expansion of the partition function for the normal matrix model is predicted to have special features inherited from its interpretation as a two-dimensional Coulomb gas. However for the latter, it is most natural to include a hard wall at the boundary of the droplet. We probe how this affects the asymptotic expansion in the solvable case that the potential is radially symmetric and the droplet is a disk or an annulus. We allow too for the hard wall to be strictly inside…

A Durrett-Remenik particle system in $\mathbb{R}^d$
This paper studies a branching-selection model of motionless particles in $\mathbb{R}^d$, with nonlocal branching, introduced by Durrett and Remenik in dimension $1$. The assumptions on the fitness function, $F$, and on the inhomogeneous branching distribution, are mild. The evolution equation for the macroscopic density is given by an integro-differential free boundary problem in $\mathbb{R}^d$, in which the free boundary represents the least $F$-value in the population. The main result is the…
