Non-planarity of Markoff graphs mod p

Matthew De Courcy-Ireland

We prove the non-planarity of a family of 3-regular graphs constructed from the solutions to the Markoff equation x2 + y2 + z2 = xyz modulo prime numbers greater than 7. The proof uses Euler characteristic and an enumeration of the short cycles in these gr ...

SC-TPTP: An Extension of the TPTP Derivation Format for Sequent-Based Calculus

Simon Guilloud

Motivated by the transfer of proofs between proof systems, and in particular from first order automated theorem provers (ATPs) to interactive theorem provers (ITPs), we specify an extension of the TPTP derivation text format to describe proofs in first-ord ...

Controlling crystal cleavage in focused ion beam shaped specimens for surface spectroscopy

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke

Our understanding of quantum materials is commonly based on precise determinations of their electronic spectrum by spectroscopic means, most notably angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and scanning tunneling microscopy. Both require atomicall ...

Photothermal spectroscopy on-chip sensor for the measurement of a PMMA film using a silicon nitride micro-ring resonator and an external cavity quantum cascade laser

Simone Iadanza

Laser-based mid-infrared (mid-IR) photothermal spectroscopy (PTS) represents a selective, fast, and sensitive analytical technique. Recent developments in laser design permits the coverage of wider spectral regions in combination with higher power, enablin ...

A Gapless Post-quantum Hash Proof System in the Hamming Metric

Serge Vaudenay, Bénédikt Minh Dang Tran

A hash proof system (HPS) is a form of implicit proof of membership to a language. Out of the very few existing post-quantum HPS, most are based on languages of ciphertexts of code-based or lattice-based cryptosystems and inherently suffer from a gap cause ...

LISA – A Modern Proof System

Viktor Kuncak, Simon Guilloud, Sankalp Gambhir

We present LISA, a proof system and proof assistant for constructing proofs in schematic first-order logic and axiomatic set theory. The logical kernel of the system is a proof checker for first-order logic with equality and schematic predicate and fun ...

Computer-assisted proof of kernel inequalities

Maryna Viazovska

This data set provides a computer-assisted proof for the kernel inequalities needed to prove universal optimality in the paper "Universal optimality of the E_8 and Leech lattices and interpolation formulas" (by Cohn, Kumar, Miller, Radchenko, and Viazovska ...

Between the Pattern and the Type: A short parallel story

Vasileios Chanis

Historically speaking, the notion of the type was reintroduced to the larger architectural discourse as a direct consequence of the crisis of the Modern. The task of revisiting the forms of the past also dictated the return of architectural methods that ha ...

Gradient flow dynamics of shallow ReLU networks for square loss and orthogonal inputs

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion, Loucas Pillaud-Vivien, Etienne Patrice Boursier

The training of neural networks by gradient descent methods is a cornerstone of the deep learning revolution. Yet, despite some recent progress, a complete theory explaining its success is still missing. This article presents, for orthogonal input vectors, ...

Toward Mobile Distributed Ledgers

Boi Faltings, Sujit Prakash Gujar

Advances in mobile computing have paved the way for new types of distributed applications that can be executed solely by mobile devices on Device-to-Device (D2D) ecosystems (e.g., crowdsensing). Sophisticated applications, like cryptocurrencies, need distr ...

Convex Quantization Preserves Logconcavity

Pol del Aguila Pla, Aleix Boquet I Pujadas

A logconcave likelihood is as important to proper statistical inference as a convex cost function is important to variational optimization. Quantization is often disregarded when writing likelihood models, ignoring the limitations of the physical detectors ...

An automated do-it-yourself system for dynamic stem cell and organoid culture in standard multi-well plates

Matthias Lütolf, Sebastian Maerkl, Zoe Newell Swank, Stefano Davide Vianello, Julia Tischler, Hao-An Hsiung

We present a low-cost, do-it-yourself system for complexmammalian cell culture under dynamically changing medium formulations by integrating conventional multi-well tissue culture plates with simple microfluidic control and system automation. We demonstrat ...

Polyanionic Amphiphilic Dendritic Polyglycerols as Broad-Spectrum Viral Inhibitors with a Virucidal Mechanism

Francesco Stellacci, Matteo Gasbarri, Valeria Cagno

Heparin has been known to be a broad-spectrum inhibitor of viral infection for almost 70 years, and it has been used as a medication for almost 90 years due to its anticoagulant effect. This nontoxic biocompatible polymer efficiently binds to many types of ...

A comment on performance guarantees of a greedy algorithm for minimizing a supermodular set function on comatroid

Maryam Kamgarpour, Baiwei Guo

We provide a counterexample to the performance guarantee obtained in the paper "Il'ev, V., Linker, N., 2006. Performance guarantees of a greedy algorithm for minimizing a supermodular set function on comatroid", which was published in Volume 171 of the Eur ...

Mutual information for low-rank even-order symmetric tensor estimation

Nicolas Macris, Jean François Emmanuel Barbier, Clément Dominique Luneau

We consider a statistical model for finite-rank symmetric tensor factorization and prove a single-letter variational expression for its asymptotic mutual information when the tensor is of even order. The proof applies the adaptive interpolation method orig ...

Computation of Al-Salam Carlitz and Askey-Wilson moments using Motzkin paths

Gaspard Ohlmann

In this paper we study the moments of polynomials from the Askey scheme, and we focus on Askey-Wilson polynomials. More precisely, we give a combinatorial proof for the case where d = 0. Their values have already been computed by Kim and Stanton in 2015, h ...
