Inf-sup stable space-time discretization of the wave equation based on a first-order-in-time variational formulation
In this paper, we present a conforming space-time discretization of the wave equation based on a first-order-in-time variational formulation with exponential weights in time. We analyze the method, showing its stability without imposing any restrictions on the mesh size or time step, and proving quasi-optimal convergence for any choice of space-time tensor product discrete spaces that satisfies standard approximation assumptions. Numerical examples are provided to support the theoretical findin…

LightGTS: A Lightweight General Time Series Forecasting Model
Existing works on general time series forecasting build foundation models with heavy model parameters through large-scale multi-source pre-training. These models achieve superior generalization ability across various datasets at the cost of significant computational burdens and limitations in resource-constrained scenarios. This paper introduces LightGTS, a lightweight general time series forecasting model designed from the perspective of consistent periodical modeling. To handle diverse scales…

Yule-Walker Estimation for Functional Time Series in Hilbert Space
Recent advances in data collection technologies have led to the widespread availability of functional data observed over time, often exhibiting strong temporal dependence. However, existing methodologies typically assume independence across functions or impose restrictive low-order dependence structures, limiting their ability to capture the full dynamics of functional time series. To address this gap, we investigate higher-order functional autoregressive (FAR) models in Hilbert spaces, focusin…

Towards Autonomous In-situ Soil Sampling and Mapping in Large-Scale Agricultural Environments
Traditional soil sampling and analysis methods are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and limited in spatial resolution, making them unsuitable for large-scale precision agriculture. To address these limitations, we present a robotic solution for real-time sampling, analysis and mapping of key soil properties.

Policy Optimization for Continuous-time Linear-Quadratic Graphon Mean Field Games
Multi-agent reinforcement learning, despite its popularity and empirical success, faces significant scalability challenges in large-population dynamic games. Graphon mean field games (GMFGs) offer a principled framework for approximating such games while capturing heterogeneity among players. In this paper, we propose and analyze a policy optimization framework for continuous-time, finite-horizon linear-quadratic GMFGs. Exploiting the structural properties of GMFGs, we design an efficient polic…

ScaleRTL: Scaling LLMs with Reasoning Data and Test-Time Compute for Accurate RTL Code Generation
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have enabled near-human performance on software coding benchmarks, but their effectiveness in RTL code generation remains limited due to the scarcity of high-quality training data. While prior efforts have fine-tuned LLMs for RTL tasks, they do not fundamentally overcome the data bottleneck and lack support for test-time scaling due to their non-reasoning nature. In this work, we introduce ScaleRTL, the first reasoning LLM for RTL coding that scal…

TRUST: Test-time Resource Utilization for Superior Trustworthiness
Standard uncertainty estimation techniques, such as dropout, often struggle to clearly distinguish reliable predictions from unreliable ones. We attribute this limitation to noisy classifier weights, which, while not impairing overall class-level predictions, render finer-level statistics less informative. To address this, we propose a novel test-time optimization method that accounts for the impact of such noise to produce more reliable confidence estimates. This score defines a monotonic subs…

Calamus 26 We two boys together clinging
This is one of the gayest of the Calamus poems, a fantasy of two men against the world, full of life and ardor. I should be all over this in my gay reading!
Instead I see a darker form of Americanism here. "Power enjoying ... Armed and fearless ... No law less than ourselves". It's classic American individualism fantasy, a repudiation of community and law. Armed, at that.
On top of that I trip over the "North and South" part every time I read this. In 1860 when this was published we were just steps away from a Civil War after 10 years of enormous tension. I don't blame Whitman for wanting unity, his whole program in Leaves of Grass is American unity. All I can think is how there's no moral equivalence between the North and South. But Whitman wasn't an abolitionist and this poem reflects that.
Sorry for not reveling in the gay, maybe it's the ICE and California National Guard news affecting my reading today.

Exponential Time Differencing Runge-Kutta Discontinuous Galerkin (ETD-RKDG) Methods for Nonlinear Degenerate Parabolic Equations
In this paper, we study high-order exponential time differencing Runge-Kutta (ETD-RK) discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods for nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations. This class of equations exhibits hyperbolic behavior in degenerate regions and parabolic behavior in non-degenerate regions, resulting in sharp wave fronts in the solution profiles and a parabolic-type time-step restriction, $τ\sim O(h^2)$, for explicit time integration. To address these challenges and solve such equations in co…

Optimal-PhiBE: A PDE-based Model-free framework for Continuous-time Reinforcement Learning
This paper addresses continuous-time reinforcement learning (CTRL) where the system dynamics are governed by a stochastic differential equation but are unknown, and only discrete-time observations are available. Existing approaches face limitations: model-based PDE methods suffer from non-identifiability, while model-free methods based on the optimal Bellman equation (Optimal-BE) are prone to large discretization errors sensitive to both the dynamics and reward structure. To overcome these chal…

ENMA: Tokenwise Autoregression for Generative Neural PDE Operators
Solving time-dependent parametric partial differential equations (PDEs) remains a fundamental challenge for neural solvers, particularly when generalizing across a wide range of physical parameters and dynamics. When data is uncertain or incomplete-as is often the case-a natural approach is to turn to generative models. We introduce ENMA, a generative neural operator designed to model spatio-temporal dynamics arising from physical phenomena. ENMA predicts future dynamics in a compressed latent …
