Density of Traceable Graphs
We establish tight lower and upper bounds on the number of edges in traceable graphs in several classes of dense graphs. A graph is traceable if it has a Hamiltonian path. We show that the bound is: - quadratic for the class of graphs of bounded neighborhood diversity, bounded size of maximum induced matching or bounded cluster vertex deletion number; - n log n for the class of cographs or, more generaly, bounded modular-width, and for the class of bounded distance to cograph; and - sligthly su…

A Start To End Machine Learning Approach To Maximize Scientific Throughput From The LCLS-II-HE
With the increasing brightness of Light sources, including the Diffraction-Limited brightness upgrade of APS and the high-repetition-rate upgrade of LCLS, the proposed experiments therein are becoming increasingly complex. For instance, experiments at LCLS-II-HE will require the X-ray beam to be within a fraction of a micron in diameter, with pointing stability of a few nanoradians, at the end of a kilometer-long electron accelerator, a hundred-meter-long undulator section, and tens of meters l…
