On the Spectroscopic Boundaries Between Normal and Peculiar Type~I Supernovae
J. T. Parrent
The spectrum of a supernova is a summation of numerous overlapping atomic line signatures. Consequently, empirical measurements are limited in application when compound features ar…
6D SCFTs and Gravity
Michele Del Zotto, Jonathan J. Heckman, David R. Morrison +1
We study how to couple a 6D superconformal field theory (SCFT) to gravity. In F-theory, the models in question are obtained working on the supersymmetric background R^{5,1} x B whe…
Warped Dipole Completed, with a Tower of Higgs Bosons
Kaustubh Agashe, Aleksandr Azatov, Yanou Cui +2
In the context of warped extra-dimensional models which address both the Planck-weak- and flavor-hierarchies of the Standard Model (SM), it has been argued that certain observables…
The detectability of eccentric compact binary coalescences with advanced gravitational-wave detectors
Michael Coughlin, Patrick Meyers, Eric Thrane +2
Compact binary coalescences are a promising source of gravitational waves for second-generation interferometric gravitational-wave detectors such as advanced LIGO and advanced Virg…
A Simple Physical Model for the Gas Distribution in Galaxy Clusters
Anna Patej, Abraham Loeb
The dominant baryonic component of galaxy clusters is hot gas whose distribution is commonly probed through X-ray emission arising from thermal bremsstrahlung. The density profile…
Randomization Inference for Treatment Effect Variation
Peng Ding, Avi Feller, Luke Miratrix
Applied researchers are increasingly interested in whether and how treatment effects vary in randomized evaluations, especially variation not explained by observed covariates. We p…
Variable Selection is Hard
Dean Foster, Howard Karloff, Justin Thaler
Variable selection for sparse linear regression is the problem of finding, given an m x p matrix B and a target vector y, a sparse vector x such that Bx approximately equals y. Ass…
AGB Sodium Abundances in the Globular Cluster 47 Tucanae (NGC 104)
Christian I. Johnson, Iain McDonald, Catherine A. Pilachowski +8
A recent analysis comparing the [Na/Fe] distributions of red giant branch (RGB) and asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6752 found that the rat…
Real-time earthquake warning for astronomical observatories
Michael Coughlin, Christopher Stubbs, Sergio Barrientos +4
Early earthquake warning is a rapidly developing capability that has significant ramifications for many fields, including astronomical observatories. In this work, we describe the…
Algebraic structure of equations for Calabi-Yau sigma models
Murad Alim
The equations define a flat connection on the moduli spaces of quantum field theories. For conformal theories with , which can be realized as nonli…
Weighted Polynomial Approximations: Limits for Learning and Pseudorandomness
Mark Bun, Thomas Steinke
Polynomial approximations to boolean functions have led to many positive results in computer science. In particular, polynomial approximations to the sign function underly algorith…
An ALMA Disk Mass for the Candidate Protoplanetary Companion to FW Tau
Adam L. Kraus, Sean M. Andrews, Brendan P. Bowler +5
We present ALMA observations of the FW Tau system, a close binary pair of M5 stars with a wide-orbit (300 AU projected separation) substellar companion. The companion is extremely…
Attention for Fine-Grained Categorization
Pierre Sermanet, Andrea Frome, Esteban Real
This paper presents experiments extending the work of Ba et al. (2014) on recurrent neural models for attention into less constrained visual environments, specifically fine-grained…
Quantifying the Impact of Cosmological Parameter Uncertainties on Strong Lensing Models With an Eye Toward the Frontier Fields
Matthew B. Bayliss, Keren Sharon, Traci Johnson
We test the effects of varying the cosmological parameter values used in the strong lens modeling process for the six Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF) galaxy clusters. The standard pro…
Efficient Approximation of Diagonal Unitaries over the Clifford+T Basis
Jonathan Welch, Alex Bocharov, Krysta M. Svore
We present an algorithm for the approximate decomposition of diagonal operators, focusing specifically on decompositions over the Clifford+ basis, that minimize the number of ph…
Deconstruction, Holography and Emergent Supersymmetry
Yuichiro Nakai
We study a gauge theory in a 5D warped space via the dimensional deconstruction that a higher dimensional gauge theory is constructed from a moose of 4D gauge groups. By the AdS/CF…
A special Lagrangian type equation for holomorphic line bundles
Adam Jacob, Shing-Tung Yau
Let be a holomorphic line bundle over a compact Kähler manifold . Motivated by mirror symmetry, we study the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation on , which is the line…
Gravitational Memory, BMS Supertranslations and Soft Theorems
Andrew Strominger, Alexander Zhiboedov
The transit of a gravitating radiation pulse past arrays of detectors stationed near future null infinity in the vacuum is considered. It is shown that the relative positions and c…
Graph-Sparse LDA: A Topic Model with Structured Sparsity
Finale Doshi-Velez, Byron Wallace, Ryan Adams
Originally designed to model text, topic modeling has become a powerful tool for uncovering latent structure in domains including medicine, finance, and vision. The goals for the m…
Constraints on Relativistic Jets in Quiescent Black Hole X-ray Binaries from Broadband Spectral Modeling
Richard M. Plotkin, Elena Gallo, Sera Markoff +5
The nature of black hole jets at the lowest detectable luminosities remains an open question, largely due to a dearth of observational constraints. Here, we present a new, nearly-s…
The Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma is optimal for linear dimensionality reduction
Kasper Green Larsen, Jelani Nelson
For any and , we show the existence of an -point subset of such that any linear map from to with disto…
Deterministic coupling of delta-doped NV centers to a nanobeam photonic crystal cavity
Jonathan C. Lee, David O. Bracher, Shanying Cui +11
The negatively-charged nitrogen vacancy center (NV) in diamond has generated significant interest as a platform for quantum information processing and sensing in the solid state. F…
Low-level Vision by Consensus in a Spatial Hierarchy of Regions
Ayan Chakrabarti, Ying Xiong, Steven J. Gortler +1
We introduce a multi-scale framework for low-level vision, where the goal is estimating physical scene values from image data---such as depth from stereo image pairs. The framework…
Investigating the Minimum Energy Principle in Searches for New Molecular Species - the Case of HCO Isomers
Ryan A. Loomis, Brett A. McGuire, Christopher Shingledecker +5
Recently, Lattelais et al. (2009) have interpreted aggregated observations of molecular isomers to suggest that there exists a "minimum energy principle'', such that molecular form…
