High-energy Emission from Turbulent Electron-ion Coronae of Accreting Black Holes

We develop a model of particle energization and emission from strongly turbulent black-hole coronae. Our local model is based on a set of 2D radiative particle-in-cell simulations with an electron-ion plasma composition, injection and diffusive escape of photons and charged particles, and self-consistent Compton scattering. We show...

Trajectory Guard -- A Lightweight, Sequence-Aware Model for Real-Time Anomaly Detection in Agentic AI

Autonomous LLM agents generate multi-step action plans that can fail due to contextual misalignment or structural incoherence. Existing anomaly detection methods are ill-suited for this challenge: mean-pooling embeddings dilutes anomalous steps, while contrastive-only approaches ignore sequential structure. Standard unsupervised...

The Physics of Causation

Assembly theory (AT) introduces causation as a material property and establishes a metrology for objects produced by evolution and selection. The physical scale of causation is quantified by the assembly index, defined as the minimum number of recursive steps necessary to make an object. Observing countable copies of high assembly...

Post-Quantum Cryptography Key Expansion Method and Anonymous Certificate Scheme Based on NTRU

NTRU is one of the important lattice-based post-quantum cryptography methods, offering resistance against quantum computing attacks. However, a drawback of NTRU lies in its relatively low efficiency in generating key pairs. Therefore, this study proposes an NTRU-based key expansion method that enables efficient public key expansion....

The Illusion of Insight in Reasoning Models

Do reasoning models have "Aha!" moments? Prior work suggests that models like DeepSeek-R1-Zero undergo sudden mid-trace realizations that lead to accurate outputs, implying an intrinsic capacity for self-correction. Yet, it remains unclear whether such intrinsic shifts in reasoning strategy actually improve performance. Here, we study...

Semantic Event Graphs for Long-Form Video Question Answering

Long-form video question answering remains challenging for modern vision-language models, which struggle to reason over hour-scale footage without exceeding practical token and compute budgets. Existing systems typically downsample frames or feed dense visual embeddings to large-context language models, trading off temporal coverage...

Physics-Guided Dual-Domain Plug-and-Play ADMM for Low-Dose CT Reconstruction

Ultra-low-dose CT (ULDCT) imaging can greatly reduce patient radiation exposure, but the resulting scans suffer from severe structured and random noise that degrades image quality. To address this challenge, we propose a novel Plug-and-Play model-based iterative reconstruction framework (PnP-MBIR) that integrates a deep convolutional...

Three factor delay learning rules for spiking neural networks

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are dynamical systems that operate on spatiotemporal data, yet their learnable parameters are often limited to synaptic weights, contributing little to temporal pattern recognition. Learnable parameters that delay spike times can improve classification performance in temporal tasks, but existing methods...

Construction of simple quotients of Bernstein-Zelevinsky derivatives and highest derivative multisegments II: Minimal sequences

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field. For any irreducible smooth representation $π$ of $\mathrm{GL}_n(F)$ and a multisegment $\mathfrak m$, we have an operation $D_{\mathfrak m}(π)$ to construct a simple quotient $τ$ of a Bernstein-Zelevinsky derivative of $π$. This article continues the previous one to study the following poset...

Spectral Shapes of Pair Annihilation Line Emission in Magnetar Giant Flares

We investigate the gamma-ray spectrum in the MeV range arising from electron-positron pair annihilation in fireballs associated with magnetar giant flares (MGFs), motivated by the recent observation of a MeV gamma-ray line feature in a bright gamma-ray burst, GRB~221009A. We develop an analytic model of line emission, demonstrating...

Avatar Forcing: Real-Time Interactive Head Avatar Generation for Natural Conversation

Talking head generation creates lifelike avatars from static portraits for virtual communication and content creation. However, current models do not yet convey the feeling of truly interactive communication, often generating one-way responses that lack emotional engagement. We identify two key challenges toward truly interactive...

Activity correlation and temporal variation of small-scale magnetic fields on young Sun-like stars

We aim to evaluate how well the variation of small-scale magnetic fields on the stellar surface can be monitored with time-series observations. Further, we aim to establish to what extent the measured total unsigned magnetic field traces other activity indicators. We measured the total unsigned magnetic field on four young, stars...

Extended BMS representations and strings

We construct in detail the irreducible representations of the BMS group with super rotations in three and four dimensions that have the same rest frame momenta as the massive and massless Poincare point particles. We compare these representations to those of the Poincare group and also to the analogous representations of global BMS....

Mixed fourth moments of automorphic forms and the shifted moments of $L$-functions

In this article, we study the mixed fourth moments of Hecke--Maass cusp forms and Eisenstein series with type $(2, 2)$. Under the assumptions of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) and the Generalized Ramanujan Conjecture (GRC), we establish asymptotic formulas for these moments. Our results give an interesting...

CRoPS: A Training-Free Hallucination Mitigation Framework for Vision-Language Models

Despite the rapid success of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), a persistent challenge is their tendency to generate hallucinated content, undermining reliability in real-world use. Existing training-free methods address hallucinations but face two limitations: (i) they rely on narrow assumptions about hallucination sources, and...

Two-body nonleptonic decays of $Ω_{b}\rightarrow Ω_{c}$ beyond tree level

We study the nonleptonic decays of $Ω_{b}\rightarrowΩ_{c} P (V)$ with eight pseudoscalar and vector mesons using the naive factorization approach. We analyze all relevant topologies (the tree-level, color-suppressed, and penguin) of these decays and calculate the decay amplitude for each separately. We determine the decay rates,...

$\ell^p(\mathbb{Z}^n)$-estimate for long $r$-variational seminorm of discrete Birch-Magyar averages

We prove $\ell^p(\mathbb{Z}^n)-$estimates for long $r$-variational seminorm of two families of averages: discrete Birch-Magyar averages, for $r>max\{p,p'\}$ with $p>\frac{2c_{\mathfrak{R}}-2}{2c_{\mathfrak{R}}-3}$ and discrete Hardy-Littlewood type averages over certain algebraic varieties, for $r>max\{p,p'\}$ with $p>1$. Further, we...

Separating the Wheat from the Chaff

We study a reputational cheap-talk environment in which a judge, who is privately and imperfectly informed about a state, must choose between two speakers of unknown reliability. Exactly one speaker is an expert who perfectly observes the state, while the other is a quack with no information. Both speakers seek to be selected, while...
