In the present work we consider the assignment of the factorization and renormalization scales in hadron collider processes with associated jet production, at next-to-leading order (NLO) in perturbation theory. We propose a simple, definite…
Controlling the False Discovery Rate (FDR) in a variable selection procedure is critical for reproducible discoveries, and it has been extensively studied in sparse linear models. However, it remains largely open in scenarios where the…
We present a model independent approach to FFs, which allows to determine uniquely the non-singlet combination (D_u-D_d)^{K^++K^-} of the kaon FFs, independently in the three different processes of kaon inclusive production: e+e-…
The goal of this study is to find a prescription for defining parton distributions (PDFs) which are most appropriate for use in those codes where only LO matrix elements (MEs) are used, as in many Monte Carlo generators. We describe a…
Fluid antenna systems (FAS) achieve spatial diversity by dynamically switching among $N$ densely packed ports, but the resulting spatially correlated Rayleigh channels render exact outage analysis intractable. Existing block-correlation…

We review a recently proposed phenomenological framework to establish the notions of QCD factorization and universality of jet cross sections in the heavy-ion environment. First results of a global analysis of the nuclear modification…
I propose a way to use non-Euclidean norms to formulate a QR-like factorization which can unlock interesting and potentially useful properties of non-Euclidean norms - for example the ability of $l^1$ norm to suppresss outliers or promote…
In plasma edge simulations, the behavior of neutral particles is often described by a Boltzmann--BGK equation. Solving this kinetic equation and estimating the moments of its solution are essential tasks, typically carried out using Monte…
We introduce Fermi Sets, a universal and physically interpretable neural architecture for fermionic many-body wavefunctions. Building on a ``parity-graded'' representation [1], we prove that any continuous fermionic wavefunction on a…
A typical system of k difference (or differential) equations can be compressed, or folded into a difference (or ordinary differential) equation of order k. Such foldings appear in control theory as the canonical forms of the controllability…
Consider a randomized algorithm that draws samples exactly from a distribution using recursion. Such an algorithm is called a perfect simulation, and here a variety of methods for building this type of algorithm are shown to derive from the…
