Ray-Column IPRM: Restoring Radial Spectral Scale to Structure-Based Turbulence Modeling
Stavros C. Kassinos
https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.17644 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2605.17644 https://arxiv.org/html/2605.17644
arXiv:2605.17644v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: The particle representation model (PRM) and interacting particle representation model (IPRM) describe homogeneous turbulence through orientation-conditioned structural states. In their original form, the conditional state is organized by the unit spectral direction, while the radial spectral coordinate is integrated out. We introduce a scale-conditioned Ray-Column extension in which the spectral vector is decomposed into orientation and radial wavenumber, and the conditional structure state is projected onto finite radial bands.
The formulation starts from the continuum spectral tensor and is then reduced to the ray-packet ensemble sums used in the implementation. The bands are projections of an orientation-wavenumber tensor density and retain scale-conditioned structural populations for closure evaluation. The rapid dynamics remain ray-packet resolved, while the nonlinear slow and terminal closure coefficients are evaluated from band-aggregate structure tensors formed by integrating over orientation and wavenumber within each band. The present reference closure omits conservative cascade modeling among bands.
A reference closure is built from PRM rapid kinematics, band-local effective-gradient response, slow rotational randomization, and an active large-scale enstrophy (LSE) terminal-drain map. In the active-LSE closure, the misalignment-sensing factor Psi_fd regularizes the LSE structure-to-dissipation map; the Ray-Column formulation evaluates this map on band-aggregate structural populations. The model is assessed in irrotational strain, homogeneous shear, elliptic-streamline, and rotating-shear configurations. The rotating-shear comparison with filtered LES data illustrates the payoff of retaining band information: filtered or low-pass observables can be formed before scale information is lost in the one-point reconstruction.

Renewable hydrogen could be a game-changer for industries that can't easily go electric.
UC Irvine researchers mapped out where it delivers the biggest wins: steelmaking, ocean shipping, and heavy trucking. The payoff? Cleaner air, better health, and real climate progress.
The challenge is cost and scale, but this framework helps decision-makers invest where it matters most.

DNQ: Deep Nash Q-Network for Partially Observable n-Player Games
Qintong Xie, Edward Koh, Xavier Cadet, Peter Chin
https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.06480 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2606.06480 https://arxiv.org/html/2606.06480
arXiv:2606.06480v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Many real-world competitive systems require multiple decision-makers to act simultaneously under shared constraints, limited information, and repeated interaction, as in auctions, resource allocation, and security competition. We study multi-turn simultaneous bidding as a controlled testbed for such problems and propose DNQ, a solver-in-the-loop equilibrium supervision framework for training bidding agents. DNQ alternates between trajectory collection, critic-based payoff estimation, equilibrium computation, and policy imitation. At each visited state, a shared critic predicts either pairwise payoff matrices or an exact N-player payoff tensor, an external solver computes equilibrium strategies, and the agents are trained by minimizing the KL divergence between their masked policies and the solver-derived equilibrium targets. We focus on a scalable pairwise formulation that greatly reduces equilibrium-solving cost and training time compared with the exact formulation, while the shared critic amortizes payoff learning across agents and states. Experiments compare the pairwise and exact variants using critic loss, policy entropy, bidding resource usage, and training cost, showing that the pairwise method scales to larger numbers of agents, whereas the exact method becomes computationally impractical as the joint game grows. These results illustrate the trade-off between strategic fidelity and scalability in repeated competitive environments.
