Shadowing and Antishadowing in Neutrino Deep Inelastic Scattering
The coherence of multiscattering quark nuclear processes leads to shadowing
and antishadowing of the electromagnetic nuclear structure functions in
agreement with measurements. This picture leads to substantially different
antishadowing for charged and neutral current processes, particularly in
anti-neutrino reactions, thus affecting the extraction of the weak-mixing angle

Topological restrictions in Lorentzian geometry: a survey
It is well know that globally hyperbolic solutions (M,g) of the Einstein field equations in general relativity may have initial data Cauchy hypersurfaces with any topology. However, some restrictions on the fundamental group of M can arise from the causal structure if either all inextendible causal geodesics in (M,g) are complete or if one assumes that M has a boundary with suitable properties. I shall review a number of such "topological censorship" results and discuss some open issues.Universidad de Málaga. Campus de excelencia Internacional Andalucía Tech
Electromagnetic Pulse from Final Gravitational Stellar Collapse
We employ an effective gravitational stellar final collapse model which
contains the relevant physics involved in this complex phenomena: spherical
radical infall in the Schwarzschild metric of the homogeneous core of an
advanced star, giant magnetic dipole moment, magnetohydrodynamic material
response and realistic equations of state (EOS). The electromagnetic pulse is
computed both for medium size cores undergoing hydrodynamic bounce and large
size cores undergoing black hole formation. We clearly show that there must
exist two classes of neutron stars, separated by maximum allowable masses:
those that collapsed as solitary stars (dynamical mass limit) and those that
collapsed in binary systems allowing mass accretion (static neutron star mass).
Our results show that the electromagnetic pulse spectrum associated with black
hole formation is a universal signature, independent of the nuclear EOS. Our
results also predict that there must exist black holes whose masses are less
than the static neutron star stability limit.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figures, to be published in Astronomy and Astrophysic
Guess who? Multilingual approach for the automated generation of author-stylized poetry
This paper addresses the problem of stylized text generation in a
multilingual setup. A version of a language model based on a long short-term
memory (LSTM) artificial neural network with extended phonetic and semantic
embeddings is used for stylized poetry generation. The quality of the resulting
poems generated by the network is estimated through bilingual evaluation
understudy (BLEU), a survey and a new cross-entropy based metric that is
suggested for the problems of such type. The experiments show that the proposed
model consistently outperforms random sample and vanilla-LSTM baselines, humans
also tend to associate machine generated texts with the target author
