We numerically study the outcome of symmetry breaking motivated by Grand Unified models. Our results show the formation of biased domain walls for a range of parameters together with magnetic monopoles. The interactions of walls and…
Min-wise hashing and its $k$-min-wise extension are fundamental tools in sampling, sketching, and similarity estimation. A standard approach to constructing such families is bounded independence. For ordinary min-wise hashing, the required…
Accurately describing a hypothetical symmetry-invariant Mott insulator presents a long-standing ing challenge in iterative quantum embedding methods. We address this issue within the ghost- Gutzwiller method, which can be solved either…
Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly expected to assist users in completing tasks. However, existing benchmarks provide limited support for evaluating whether agents can carry out office-suite workflows at a reasonable cost.…
CT vision-language foundation models have demonstrated promising performance across downstream tasks, but are typically trained with whole-volume representations that dilute fine-grained anatomical signals. Fine-grained vision-language…
One of the central challenges in quantum error correction is determining the performance of a code in the low-error regimes needed to implement utility-scale computations. While performance at these error rates is not amenable to direct…
Accurate intraday forecasts of offshore wind are becoming increasingly important for power system operation and the integration of growing shares of offshore wind energy. Operational forecasts rely predominantly on numerical weather…
Space object tracking poses challenging estimation problems due to the significantly non-Gaussian distributions that can arise, particularly under highly nonlinear dynamics or during periods of measurement unavailability. Adaptive Gaussian…
These notes provide a self-consistent summary of the stochastic approach to anomalous diffusion based on Continuous Time Random Walks (CTRWs) and their scaling limits. An introduction to CTRWs and their relationship to the theory of…
We propose a new estimator for the ionized gas--matter power spectrum, which correlates the kinematic Sunyaev--Zel'dovich (kSZ) field with the line-of-sight velocity field and the weak-lensing convergence map. Analogously to the standard…
Quantum interference encoded in the sublattice texture of kagome Bloch wavefunctions has been widely invoked as a route to correlated states, including chiral charge order, unconventional superconductivity, and their possible intertwining…
In a seminal result of Yuster and Zwick, they showed that for any fixed $k$, the even cycle $C_{2k}$ can be detected in an $n$-vertex graph in time $O(n^2)$. For $4$-cycles, a folklore algorithm extends to listing: for any $t$, we can list…
Coding agents have made substantial progress on software engineering tasks that modify existing codebases, including bug fixing and feature implementation. However, constructing a complete program from scratch remains a major challenge:…
As Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed in decision-critical pipelines such as robotics, embodied AI, and safety monitoring, the opacity of their spatial judgments limits operator trust and auditability. MLLMs…
Multi-degree-of-freedom photonic quantum processing requires routing between degree-of-freedom (DOF) qubit encodings on a single photon. A SWAP between polarization and time-bin qubits is Multi-degree-of-freedom photonic quantum processing…
High-stakes decision systems in credit scoring, fraud detection, healthcare, and industrial safety require reliable uncertainty quantification under severe class imbalance and asymmetric error costs. Standard marginal conformal prediction…
This paper studies the dynamic effects of divorce legislation on the labor supply behavior and welfare of married couples. Using U.S. household panel data, I examine the transition from the "Title-based Regime" (TBR) in the 1970s to the…
We discuss lattice methods for the simulation of fluid dynamics in the early Universe. This review represents a third entry in the monographic series on lattice cosmology techniques~\cite{Figueroa:2020rrl,Baeza-Ballesteros:2025tme}, which…
This project aimed to develop a novel reservoir compute (RC) implementation framework targeting high-speed operation and integration with CMOS digital logic. With the target workload of branch prediction (BP) for multistage pipelined…
Accurate 3D reconstruction from satellite imagery typically relies on near-simultaneous stereo pairs, limiting its applicability to diachronic settings where multi-date images exhibit varying seasonal and illumination conditions. Training…
