A Global Optimal Theory of Portfolio beyond R-$σ$ Model

The deviation of the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) for the practical economic system allows us gain the arbitrary or risk premium in finance markets. We propose the triplet $(R,H,σ)$ theory to give the local and global optimal portfolio, which eneralize from the $(R,σ)$ model. We present the formulation of the triplet $(R,H,σ)$...

Comparison of Static and Evolving Potentials in the Orbital Dynamics of Globular Clusters in the Central Region of the Galaxy

A comparative analysis of the dynamics of the orbital motion (regular or chaotic) of 45 globular clusters in the central region of the Galaxy with a radius of 3.5 kpc is carried out. The static and evolving (based on the semi-analytical cosmological model of Gomez et al. (2010) and Hagi et al. (2015)) potentials of the Galaxy are...

What Is a Causal Effect When Firms Interact? Counterfactuals and Interdependence

Many empirical studies estimate causal effects in environments where economic units interact through spatial or network connections. In such settings, outcomes are jointly determined, and treatment induced shocks propagate across economically connected units. A growing literature highlights identification challenges in these models...

Disentangling Hardness from Noise: An Uncertainty-Driven Model-Agnostic Framework for Long-Tailed Remote Sensing Classification

Long-Tailed distributions are pervasive in remote sensing due to the inherently imbalanced occurrence of grounded objects. However, a critical challenge remains largely overlooked, i.e., disentangling hard tail data samples from noisy ambiguous ones. Conventional methods often indiscriminately emphasize all low-confidence samples,...

Task-Driven Kernel Flows: Label Rank Compression and Laplacian Spectral Filtering

We present a theory of feature learning in wide L2-regularized networks showing that supervised learning is inherently compressive. We derive a kernel ODE that predicts a "water-filling" spectral evolution and prove that for any stable steady state, the kernel rank is bounded by the number of classes ($C$). We further demonstrate that...

Pure Inertial Navigation in Challenging Environments with Wheeled and Chassis Mounted Inertial Sensors

Autonomous vehicles and wheeled robots are widely used in many applications in both indoor and outdoor settings. In practical situations with limited GNSS signals or degraded lighting conditions, the navigation solution may rely only on inertial sensors and as result drift in time due to errors in the inertial measurement. In this...

Making Theft Useless: Adulteration-Based Protection of Proprietary Knowledge Graphs in GraphRAG Systems

Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation (GraphRAG) has emerged as a key technique for enhancing Large Language Models (LLMs) with proprietary Knowledge Graphs (KGs) in knowledge-intensive applications. As these KGs often represent an organization's highly valuable intellectual property (IP), they face a significant risk of theft for...

Efficient Algorithms for Adversarially Robust Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search

We study the Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) problem under a powerful adaptive adversary that controls both the dataset and a sequence of $Q$ queries. Primarily, for the high-dimensional regime of $d = ω(\sqrt{Q})$, we introduce a sequence of algorithms with progressively stronger guarantees. We first establish a novel connection...

Vehicle Painting Robot Path Planning Using Hierarchical Optimization

In vehicle production factories, the vehicle painting process employs multiple robotic arms to simultaneously apply paint to car bodies advancing along a conveyor line. Designing paint paths for these robotic arms, which involves assigning car body areas to arms and determining paint sequences for each arm, remains a time-consuming...

Rectifying Adversarial Examples Using Their Vulnerabilities

Deep neural network-based classifiers are prone to errors when processing adversarial examples (AEs). AEs are minimally perturbed input data undetectable to humans posing significant risks to security-dependent applications. Hence, extensive research has been undertaken to develop defense mechanisms that mitigate their threats. Most...

FaithSCAN: Model-Driven Single-Pass Hallucination Detection for Faithful Visual Question Answering

Faithfulness hallucinations in VQA occur when vision-language models produce fluent yet visually ungrounded answers, severely undermining their reliability in safety-critical applications. Existing detection methods mainly fall into two categories: external verification approaches relying on auxiliary models or knowledge bases, and...

Beyond Perfect APIs: A Comprehensive Evaluation of LLM Agents Under Real-World API Complexity

We introduce WildAGTEval, a benchmark designed to evaluate large language model (LLM) agents' function-calling capabilities under realistic API complexity. Unlike prior work that assumes an idealized API system and disregards real-world factors such as noisy API outputs, WildAGTEval accounts for two dimensions of real-world...

ActErase: A Training-Free Paradigm for Precise Concept Erasure via Activation Redirection

Recent advances in text-to-image diffusion models have demonstrated remarkable generation capabilities, yet they raise significant concerns regarding safety, copyright, and ethical implications.

Nature is stingy: Universality of Scrooge ensembles in quantum many-body systems

Recent advances in quantum simulators allow direct experimental access to ensembles of pure states generated by measuring part of an isolated quantum many-body system. These projected ensembles encode fine-grained information beyond thermal expectation values and provide a new window into quantum thermalization. In chaotic dynamics,...

Designing Information Delays in Supply Chains

This paper studies how a downstream retailer in a decentralized two-tier supply chain can implicitly transmit demand information to an upstream supplier through the structure of its order stream in the absence of an explicit information-sharing mechanism. We distinguish our work from prior work by introducing the notion of information...

Origin of geometric cohesion in non-convex granular materials: interplay between interdigitation and rotational constraints enhancing frictional stability
