Ordinal Folding Index: A Computable Metric for Self-Referential Semantics
The Ordinal Folding Index (OFI) is a new, fully computable yard-stick that measures how many rounds of self-reference a statement, protocol or position must unfold before its truth or outcome stabilises. By turning this abstract 'fold-back' depth into a single ordinal number, OFI forges a direct link between areas that are usually studied in isolation: the closure stages of fixed-point logics, the time-to-win values of infinite parity games, and the ordinal progressions that calibrate the stren…

EGNInfoLeaker: Unveiling the Risks of Public Key Reuse and User Identity Leakage in Blockchain
While Ethereum's discovery protocols (Discv4/ Discv5) incorporate robust cryptographic designs to protect user privacy, real-world deployment reveals critical vulnerabilities when users deviate from security guidelines. In this paper, we design a system called EGNInfoLeaker. Our study is the first work that uncovers widespread public key reuse across Ethereum's peer-to-peer networks - a practice that fundamentally undermines the protocol's privacy guarantees. Through systematic analysis of 300 …

Multi-mode NOON states generation with ultracold atoms via geodesic counterdiabatic driving
We present a protocol for the generation of NOON states with ultracold atoms, leveraging the Bose-Hubbard model in the self-trapping regime. By the means of an optimized adiabatic protocol, we achieve a significant reduction in the time required for the preparation of highly entangled NOON states, involving two or more modes. Our method saturates the quantum speed limit, ensuring both efficiency and high fidelity in state preparation. A detailed analysis of the geodesic counterdiabatic driving …

A Large-Scale Evolvable Dataset for Model Context Protocol Ecosystem and Security Analysis
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has recently emerged as a standardized interface for connecting language models with external tools and data. As the ecosystem rapidly expands, the lack of a structured, comprehensive view of existing MCP artifacts presents challenges for research. To bridge this gap, we introduce MCPCorpus, a large-scale dataset containing around 14K MCP servers and 300 MCP clients. Each artifact is annotated with 20+ normalized attributes capturing its identity, interface conf…

Fast and direct preparation of a genuine lattice BEC via the quantum Mpemba effect
We present an efficient method for dissipatively preparing a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) directly on a lattice, avoiding the need for a two-staged preparation procedure currently used in ultracold-atom platforms. Our protocol is based on driving the lattice-subsystem into a non-equilibrium steady state, which we show to exhibit a lattice analog of a true BEC, where the depletion can be controlled via the dissipation strength. Furthermore, exploiting a symmetry-based Mpemba effect, we analyti…

Automated Test Data Generation for Enterprise Protobuf Systems: A Metaclass-Enhanced Statistical Approach
Large-scale enterprise systems utilizing Protocol Buffers (protobuf) present significant challenges for performance testing, particularly when targeting intermediate business interfaces with complex nested data structures.

What if each voxel were measured with a different diffusion protocol?
Expansion of diffusion MRI (dMRI) both into the realm of strong gradients, and into accessible imaging with portable low-field devices, brings about the challenge of gradient nonlinearities. Spatial variations of the diffusion gradients make diffusion weightings and directions non-uniform across the field of view, and deform perfect shells in the q-space designed for isotropic directional coverage. Such imperfections hinder parameter estimation: Anisotropic shells hamper the deconvolution of fi…

Sparse Regression Codes for Secret Key Agreement: Achieving Strong Secrecy and Near-Optimal Rates for Gaussian Sources
Secret key agreement from correlated physical layer observations is a cornerstone of information-theoretic security. This paper proposes and rigorously analyzes a complete, constructive protocol for secret key agreement from Gaussian sources using Sparse Regression Codes (SPARCs). Our protocol systematically leverages the known optimality of SPARCs for both rate-distortion and Wyner-Ziv (WZ) coding, facilitated by their inherent nested structure.

Institutional Noise, Strategic Deviation, and Intertemporal Collapse: A Formal Model of Miner Behaviour under Protocol Uncertainty
This paper develops a formal game-theoretic model to examine how protocol mutability disrupts cooperative mining behaviour in blockchain systems. Using a repeated game framework with stochastic rule shocks, we show that even minor uncertainty in institutional rules increases time preference and induces strategic deviation. Fixed-rule environments support long-term investment and stable equilibrium strategies; in contrast, mutable protocols lead to short-termism, higher discounting, and collapse…

Partial decidability protocol for the Wang tiling problem from statistical mechanics and chaotic mapping
We introduce a partial decidability protocol for the Wang tiling problem (which is the prototype of undecidable problems in combinatorics and statistical physics) by constructing a suitable mapping from tilings of finite squares of different sizes. Such mapping depends on the initial family of Wang tiles (the alphabet) with which one would like to tile the plane. This allows to define effective entropy and temperature associated to the alphabet (together with the corresponding partition functio…

From Block to Byte: Transforming PCIe SSDs with CXL Memory Protocol and Instruction Annotation
This paper explores how Compute Express Link (CXL) can transform PCIe-based block storage into a scalable, byte-addressable working memory. We address the challenges of adapting block storage to CXL's memory-centric model by emphasizing cacheability as a key enabler and advocating for Type 3 endpoint devices, referred to as CXL-SSDs. To validate our approach, we prototype a CXL-SSD on a custom FPGA platform and propose annotation mechanisms, Determinism and Bufferability, to enhance performance…

In this paper we present \textsc{DUDDSketch}, a distributed version of the \textsc{UDDSketch} algorithm for accurate tracking of quantiles. The algorithm is a fully decentralized, gossip-based distributed protocol working in the context of unstructured P2P networks. We discuss the algorithm's design and formally prove its correctness. We also show, through extensive experimental results, that the algorithm converges to the results provided by the sequential algorithm, which is a fundamental and…

Solutions for defending against deepfake speech fall into two categories: proactive watermarking models and passive conventional deepfake detectors. While both address common threats, their differences in training, optimization, and evaluation prevent a unified protocol for joint evaluation and selecting the best solutions for different cases. This work proposes a framework to evaluate both model types in deepfake speech detection. To ensure fair comparison and minimize discrepancies, all model…

While full deployment of Route Origin Validation (ROV) is ongoing, attackers have already adapted, launching post-ROV attacks such as forged-origin hijacks.

Dynamical decoupling of interacting spins through group factorization
Dynamical decoupling (DD) is a well-known open-loop protocol for suppressing unwanted interactions in a quantum system, thereby drastically extending the coherence time of useful quantum states. In the original framework of evolution symmetrization, a DD sequence was shown to enforce a symmetry on the unwanted Hamiltonian, thereby suppressing it if the symmetry was inaccessible. In this work, we show how symmetries already present in the undesired Hamiltonian can be harnessed to reduce the comp…

The universality of quantum theory has been questioned ever since it was proposed. Key to this long-unsolved question is to test whether a given physical system has non-classical features.

We provide a protocol to witness the non-classicality of a system by probing it with a qubit: we show that, assuming a general conservation law, violating temporal B…
