Kinetic theory based force treatment in lattice Boltzmann equation
In the gas kinetic theory, it showed that the zeroth order of the density
distribution function and local equilibrium density distribution
function were the Maxwellian distribution f^{(eq)}(\rho,\emph{\textbf{u}}, T)
with an external force term, where the fluid density,
\emph{\textbf{u}} the physical velocity and the temperature, while in the
lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method numerous force treatments were proposed
with a discrete density distribution function apparently relaxed to a
given state f^{(eq)}_i(\rho,\emph{\textbf{u}}^*), where the given velocity
\emph{\textbf{u}}^* could be different with \emph{\textbf{u}}, and the
Chapman-Enskog analysis showed that and local equilibrium density
distribution function should be f^{(eq)}_i(\rho,\emph{\textbf{u}}^*) in the
literature. In this paper, we start from the kinetic theory and show that the
and local equilibrium density distribution function in LBE should
obey the Maxwellian distribution f^{(eq)}_i(\rho,\emph{\textbf{u}}) with
relaxed to f^{(eq)}_i(\rho,\emph{\textbf{u}}^*), which are consistent
with kinetic theory, then the general requirements for the force term are
derived, by which the correct hydrodynamic equations could be recovered at
Navier-Stokes level, and numerical results confirm our theoretical analysis
Floquet Topological States in Shaking Optical Lattices
In this letter we propose realistic schemes to realize topologically
nontrivial Floquet states by shaking optical lattices, using both one-dimension
lattice and two-dimensional honeycomb lattice as examples. The topological
phase in the two-dimensional model exhibits quantum anomalous Hall effect. The
transition between topological trivial and nontrivial states can be easily
controlled by shaking frequency and amplitude. Our schemes have two major
advantages. First, both the static Hamiltonian and the shaking scheme are
sufficiently simple to implement. Secondly, it requires relatively small
shaking amplitude and therefore heating can be minimized. These two advantages
make our scheme much more practical.Comment: 6 pages including supplementary materials, 3 figure
Quasi-particle Lifetime in a Mixture of Bose and Fermi Superfluids
In this letter, to reveal the effect of quasi-particle interactions in a
Bose-Fermi superfluid mixture, we consider the lifetime of quasi-particle of
Bose superfluid due to its interaction with quasi-particles in Fermi
superfluid. We find that this damping rate, i.e. inverse of the lifetime, has
quite different threshold behavior at the BCS and the BEC side of the Fermi
superfluid. The damping rate is a constant nearby the threshold momentum in the
BCS side, while it increases rapidly in the BEC side. This is because in the
BCS side the decay processe is restricted by constant density-of-state of
fermion quasi-particle nearby Fermi surface, while such a restriction does not
exist in the BEC side where the damping process is dominated by bosonic
quasi-particles of Fermi superfluid. Our results are related to collective mode
experiment in recently realized Bose-Fermi superfluid mixture.Comment: 8 pages and 3 figures including supplemental materia
Generalized Dynamics in Social Networks With Antagonistic Interactions
In this paper, we investigate a general nonlinear model of opinion dynamics
in which both state-dependent susceptibility to persuasion and antagonistic
interactions are considered. According to the existing literature and
socio-psychological theories, we examine three specializations of
state-dependent susceptibility, that is, stubborn positives scenario, stubborn
neutrals scenario, and stubborn extremists scenario. Interactions among agents
form a signed graph, in which positive and negative edges represent friendly
and antagonistic interactions, respectively. Based on Perron-Frobenius property
of eventually positive matrices and LaSalle invariance principle, we conduct a
comprehensive theoretical analysis of the generalized nonlinear opinion
dynamics. We obtain some sufficient conditions such that the states of all
agents converge into the subspace spanned by the right positive eigenvector of
an eventually positive matrix. When there exists at least one entry of the
right positive eigenvector which is not equal to one, the derived results can
be used to describe different levels of an opinion. Finally, we present two
examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical findings.Comment: 14 pages, 9 figure
A Deep Learning Approach for Expert Identification in Question Answering Communities
In this paper, we describe an effective convolutional neural network
framework for identifying the expert in question answering community. This
approach uses the convolutional neural network and combines user feature
representations with question feature representations to compute scores that
the user who gets the highest score is the expert on this question. Unlike
prior work, this method does not measure expert based on measure answer content
quality to identify the expert but only require question sentence and user
embedding feature to identify the expert. Remarkably, Our model can be applied
to different languages and different domains. The proposed framework is trained
on two datasets, The first dataset is Stack Overflow and the second one is
Zhihu. The Top-1 accuracy results of our experiments show that our framework
outperforms the best baseline framework for expert identification.Comment: 7 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1403.6652 by other

Large deviations for stochastic models of two-dimensional second grade fluids driven by L\'evy noise
In this paper, we establish a large deviation principle for stochastic models
of two-dimensional second grade fluids driven by L\'evy noise. The weak
convergence method introduced by Budhiraja, Dupuis and Maroulas in [5] plays a
key role
HOMs Simulation and Measurement Results of IHEP02 Cavity
In cavities, there exists not only the fundamental mode which is used to
accelerate the beam but also higher order modes (HOMs). The higher order modes
excited by beam can seriously affect beam quality, especially for the higher
R/Q modes. This paper reports on measured results of higher order modes in the
IHEP02 1.3GHz low-loss 9-cell superconducting cavity. Using different methods,
Qe of the dangerous modes passbands have been got. The results are compared
with TESLA cavity results. R/Q of the first three passbands have also been got
by simulation and compared with the results of TESLA cavity
Magnetic Order Driven Topological Transition in the Haldane-Hubbard Model
In this letter we study the Haldane model with on-site repulsive interactions
at half-filling. We show that the mean-field Hamiltonian with magnetic order
effectively modifies parameters in the Haldane Hamiltonian, such as sublattice
energy difference and phase in next nearest hopping. As interaction increases,
increasing of magnetic order corresponds to varying these parameters and
consequently, drives topological transitions. At the mean-field level, one
scenario is that the magnetic order continuously increases, and inevitably, the
fermion gap closes at the topological transition point with nonzero magnetic
order. Beyond the mean-field, interaction between fermions mediated by
spin-wave fluctuations can further open up the gap, rendering a first-order
transition. Another scenario is a first-order transition at mean-field level
across which a canted magnetic order develops discontinuously, avoiding the
fermion gap closing. We find that both scenarios exist in the phase diagram of
the Haldane-Hubbard model. Our predication is relevant to recent experimental
realization of the Haldane model in cold atom system.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures, with supplementary materia
Generalization Bounds of SGLD for Non-convex Learning: Two Theoretical Viewpoints
Algorithm-dependent generalization error bounds are central to statistical
learning theory. A learning algorithm may use a large hypothesis space, but the
limited number of iterations controls its model capacity and generalization
error. The impacts of stochastic gradient methods on generalization error for
non-convex learning problems not only have important theoretical consequences,
but are also critical to generalization errors of deep learning.
In this paper, we study the generalization errors of Stochastic Gradient
Langevin Dynamics (SGLD) with non-convex objectives. Two theories are proposed
with non-asymptotic discrete-time analysis, using Stability and PAC-Bayesian
results respectively. The stability-based theory obtains a bound of
, where is uniform Lipschitz
parameter, is inverse temperature, and is aggregated step sizes.
For PAC-Bayesian theory, though the bound has a slower rate,
the contribution of each step is shown with an exponentially decaying factor by
imposing regularization, and the uniform Lipschitz constant is also
replaced by actual norms of gradients along trajectory. Our bounds have no
implicit dependence on dimensions, norms or other capacity measures of
parameter, which elegantly characterizes the phenomenon of "Fast Training
Guarantees Generalization" in non-convex settings. This is the first
algorithm-dependent result with reasonable dependence on aggregated step sizes
for non-convex learning, and has important implications to statistical learning
aspects of stochastic gradient methods in complicated models such as deep
learning
One-Shot Texture Retrieval with Global Context Metric
In this paper, we tackle one-shot texture retrieval: given an example of a
new reference texture, detect and segment all the pixels of the same texture
category within an arbitrary image. To address this problem, we present an
OS-TR network to encode both reference and query image, leading to achieve
texture segmentation towards the reference category. Unlike the existing
texture encoding methods that integrate CNN with orderless pooling, we propose
a directionality-aware module to capture the texture variations at each
direction, resulting in spatially invariant representation. To segment new
categories given only few examples, we incorporate a self-gating mechanism into
relation network to exploit global context information for adjusting
per-channel modulation weights of local relation features. Extensive
experiments on benchmark texture datasets and real scenarios demonstrate the
above-par segmentation performance and robust generalization across domains of
our proposed method.Comment: ijcai2019-lastes
