Lifts of symmetries to minimal nondegenerate extensions are unique up to fermion attachment
Ran Luo, Jiahua Tian
Gauging fermion parity in a -dimensional fermionic topological order requires lifting its symmetries to the resulting bosonic theory. We give a direct tensor-categorical pro…
The Price of Covertness: Dual-Control Navigation in Uncertain Flows under Adversarial Sensing
Ruimeng Hu, Botao Jin, Xu Yang
Covert navigation in an uncertain flow couples motion planning with information acquisition. A vehicle must estimate the local flow to navigate, while estimation error induces corr…
Graph-Operator World Models for Morphology-Parameter Generalization in Continuous Control
Xu Yang, Yiqin Yang, Qianchuan Zhao
World models for continuous control are commonly trained for a fixed physical system and can degrade when known morphology parameters such as link lengths, masses, damping, and act…
ADAPT: Physics-Aware Diffusion-based World Models for Adaptive Predictive Transferable HVAC Control
Xu Yang, Kailai Sun, Dianyu Zhong +1
Buildings account for roughly one-third of global energy consumption and CO emissions. Optimizing indoor climate systems plays a critical role for urban climate mitigation alig…
Strategic Inference of Adversarial Navigation Objectives for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles
Ruimeng Hu, Xu Yang
We study destination inference for adversarial unmanned underwater navigation in a spatially varying current field. The red vehicle is modeled as approximately following a Hamilton…
A Continuous-Time Actor-Critic Framework for Jump-Diffusion Controls with Normalizing Flows
Liya Guo, Ruimeng Hu, Xu Yang +1
Continuous-time stochastic control with time-inhomogeneous jump-diffusion dynamics is central in finance and economics, but computing optimal policies is difficult under explicit t…
Hierarchical Control Framework Integrating LLMs with RL for Decarbonized HVAC Operation
Dianyu Zhong, Tian Xing, Kailai Sun +6
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for a substantial share of building energy consumption. Environmental uncertainty and dynamic occupancy behavior b…
GlobeDiff: State Diffusion Process for Partial Observability in Multi-Agent Systems
Yiqin Yang, Xu Yang, Yuhua Jiang +8
In the realm of multi-agent systems, the challenge of \emph{partial observability} is a critical barrier to effective coordination and decision-making. Existing approaches, such as…
