When do two planted graphs have the same cotransversal matroid?
Cotransversal matroids are a family of matroids that arise from planted
graphs. We prove that two planted graphs give the same cotransversal matroid if
and only if they can be obtained from each other by a series of local moves.Comment: 12 pages, 7 figures; expository change
Entities as topic labels: Improving topic interpretability and evaluability combining Entity Linking and Labeled LDA
In order to create a corpus exploration method providing topics that are
easier to interpret than standard LDA topic models, here we propose combining
two techniques called Entity linking and Labeled LDA. Our method identifies in
an ontology a series of descriptive labels for each document in a corpus. Then
it generates a specific topic for each label. Having a direct relation between
topics and labels makes interpretation easier; using an ontology as background
knowledge limits label ambiguity. As our topics are described with a limited
number of clear-cut labels, they promote interpretability, and this may help
quantitative evaluation. We illustrate the potential of the approach by
applying it in order to define the most relevant topics addressed by each party
in the European Parliament's fifth mandate (1999-2004).Comment: in Proceedings of Digital Humanities 2016, Krako
A revision of the neotropical genus Anahi Martínez (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae) with the description of two new species
El género Anahi Martínez del sur del Neotrópico es comprensivamente revisado y ahora contiene tres especies: A. dentata Ocampo & Ruiz- Manzanos especie nueva, A. guaraniticus Martínez y A. oblivia Ocampo & Ruiz-Manzanos especie nueva. Las nuevas especies extienden la distribución del género de Paraguay y Bolivia a Argentina. A. guaraniticus es redescripta y se amplían los caracteres que definen el género para incluir A. dentata y A. oblivia. Se proveen descripciones, ilustraciones diagnósticas, mapas de distribución y una clave para todas las especies del género. La biogeografía del género y su posición sistemática entre los Melolonthinae son tratados en este artículo.

Generalized off-equilibrium fluctuation-dissipation relations in random Ising systems
We show that the numerical method based on the off-equilibrium
fluctuation-dissipation relation does work and is very useful and powerful in
the study of disordered systems which show a very slow dynamics. We have
verified that it gives the right information in the known cases (diluted
ferromagnets and random field Ising model far from the critical point) and we
used it to obtain more convincing results on the frozen phase of
finite-dimensional spin glasses. Moreover we used it to study the Griffiths
phase of the diluted and the random field Ising models.Comment: 20 pages, 10 figures, uses epsfig.sty. Partially presented at

Determination of Soluble Sugars in Arabidopsis thaliana Leaves by Anion Exchange Chromatography
Determination of soluble sugars is basic for the study of carbon metabolism in plants. Soluble sugar quantitation can be achieved by enzymatic methods implying different coupled reactions. Here we describe a simple method that allows rapid determination of the most abundant soluble sugars (glucose, fructose and sucrose) in Arabidopsis leaves by anion exchange chromatography. We have applied this method to study the levels of soluble sugars during the photoperiodic transition to flowering (Ortiz-Marchena et al., 2014).España, MINECO projects CSD2007-00057, BIO2008-02292, and BIO2011-28847-C02-00España, Junta de Andalucía P06-CVI-01450 and P08-AGR-0358
Vector boson fusion at multi-TeV muon colliders
High-energy lepton colliders with a centre-of-mass energy in the multi-TeV
range are currently considered among the most challenging and far-reaching
future accelerator projects. Studies performed so far have mostly focused on
the reach for new phenomena in lepton-antilepton annihilation channels. In this
work we observe that starting from collider energies of a few TeV, electroweak
(EW) vector boson fusion/scattering (VBF) at lepton colliders becomes the
dominant production mode for all Standard Model processes relevant to studying
the EW sector. In many cases we find that this also holds for new physics. We
quantify the size and the growth of VBF cross sections with collider energy for
a number of SM and new physics processes. By considering luminosity scenarios
achievable at a muon collider, we conclude that such a machine would
effectively be a "high-luminosity weak boson collider," and subsequently offer
a wide range of opportunities to precisely measure EW and Higgs coupling as
well as to discover new particles.Comment: 58 pages, 17 figures, 9 tables. A contribution to Snowmass 202
