Controlling the $\mathcal{PT}$ Symmetry Breaking Threshold in Bipartite Lattice Systems with Floquet Topological Edge States
We investigate the control of the parity-time ($\mathcal{PT}$)-symmetry breaking threshold in a periodically driven one-dimensional dimerized lattice with spatially symmetric gain and loss defects. We elucidate the contrasting roles played by Floquet topological edge states in determining the $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking threshold within the high- and low-frequency driving regimes. In the high-frequency regime, the participation of topological edge states in $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking…

MEMS chip-based single proof-mass triaxial fiber-optic accelerometer with ultra-low noise level
High-precision triaxial acceleration detection holds critical applications in seismic wave detection, geological resource exploration, and aerospace systems. Fabry-Perot (FP) optical sensors have gained widespread adoption in these domains due to their compact footprint and immunity to electromagnetic interference. Nevertheless, conventional three-axis measurements predominantly rely on assembling multiple single-axis transducers, introducing limitations such as increased device volume and misa…

Central limit theory for Peaks-over-Threshold partial sums of long memory linear time series

Central limit theory for Peaks-over-Threshold partial sums of long memory linear time series
Over the last 30 years, extensive work has been devoted to developing central limit theory for partial sums of subordinated long memory linear time series. A much less studied problem, motivated by questions that are ubiquitous in extreme value theory, is the asymptotic behavior of such partial sums when the subordination mechanism has a threshold depending on sample size, so as to focus on the right tail of the time series. This article substantially extends longstanding asymptotic techniques …

Having to go to a food bank sticks with you
– it's time politicians knew about it
Amie, a town councillor and mother-of-two, had no choice but to use a food bank.
She’ll be joining more than 700 campaigners in Westminster on 18 June calling for urgent action against the rising tide of poverty in the UK
They are calling for an essentials guarantee,
which would help ensure universal credit provides enough to cover the essentials of life -- without having to g…

Having to go to a food bank sticks with you – it’s time politicians knew about it
Anti-poverty charities are calling for the government to introduce an essentials guarantee and prevent people needing to go to a food bank.

I’ve been thoroughly enjoying #CaptainOfIndustry lately. If you’re a fan of #Factorio I recommend giving it a go.

Integer-valued polynomials satisfying growth constraints
We consider polynomials which take integer values on the integers (IVPs), and satisfy an additional growth condition on the natural numbers. Elkies and Speyer, answering a question by Dimitrov, showed there is a critical exponential growth threshold, such that there are infinitely many IVPs with growth above the threshold and finitely many IVPs below that threshold (of arbitrary degree). In this paper, we give more refined estimates for the number of IVPs having exponential growth thresholds. I…

Limited Preemption of the 3-Phase Task Model using Preemption Thresholds

Limited Preemption of the 3-Phase Task Model using Preemption Thresholds
Phased execution models are a well-known solution to tackle the unpredictability of today's complex COTS multi-core platforms. The semantics of these models dedicate phases for a task's execution and shared memory accesses. Memory phases are solely dedicated to load all necessary instructions and data to private local memory, and to write back the results of the computation. During execution phases, only the private local memory is accessed. While non-preemptive execution phases utilize the loc…
