Shot noise in Weyl semimetals
We study the effect of inelastic processes on the magneto-transport of a
quasi-one dimensional Weyl semi-metal, using a modified Boltzmann-Langevin
approach. The magnetic field drives a crossover to a ballistic regime in which
the propagation along the wire is dominated by the chiral anomaly, and the role
of fluctuations inside the sample is exponentially suppressed. We show that
inelastic collisions modify the parametric dependence of the current
fluctuations on the magnetic field. By measuring shot noise as a function of a
magnetic field, for different applied voltage, one can estimate the
electron-electron inelastic length .Comment: 7 pages, 1 figur
Fermi Edge Resonances in Non-equilibrium States of Fermi Gases
We formulate the problem of the Fermi Edge Singularity in non-equilibrium
states of a Fermi gas as a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem with an integrable
kernel. This formulation is the most suitable for studying the singular
behavior at each edge of non-equilibrium Fermi states by means of the method of
steepest descent, and also reveals the integrable structure of the problem. We
supplement this result by extending the familiar approach to the problem of the
Fermi Edge Singularity via the bosonic representation of the electronic
operators to non-equilibrium settings. It provides a compact way to extract the
leading asymptotes.Comment: Accepted for publication, J. Phys.
Generalized Bayesian Record Linkage and Regression with Exact Error Propagation
Record linkage (de-duplication or entity resolution) is the process of
merging noisy databases to remove duplicate entities. While record linkage
removes duplicate entities from such databases, the downstream task is any
inferential, predictive, or post-linkage task on the linked data. One goal of
the downstream task is obtaining a larger reference data set, allowing one to
perform more accurate statistical analyses. In addition, there is inherent
record linkage uncertainty passed to the downstream task. Motivated by the
above, we propose a generalized Bayesian record linkage method and consider
multiple regression analysis as the downstream task. Records are linked via a
random partition model, which allows for a wide class to be considered. In
addition, we jointly model the record linkage and downstream task, which allows
one to account for the record linkage uncertainty exactly. Moreover, one is
able to generate a feedback propagation mechanism of the information from the
proposed Bayesian record linkage model into the downstream task. This feedback
effect is essential to eliminate potential biases that can jeopardize resulting
downstream task. We apply our methodology to multiple linear regression, and
illustrate empirically that the "feedback effect" is able to improve the
performance of record linkage.Comment: 18 pages, 5 figure
