  text: In this paper, we study the compression of a target two-layer neural network
    with N nodes into a compressed network with M<N nodes. More precisely, we consider
    the setting in which the weights of the target network are i.i.d. sub-Gaussian,
    and we minimize the population L_2 loss between the outputs of the target and
    of the compressed network, under the assumption of Gaussian inputs. By using tools
    from high-dimensional probability, we show that this non-convex problem can be
    simplified when the target network is sufficiently over-parameterized, and provide
    the error rate of this approximation as a function of the input dimension and
    N. In this mean-field limit, the simplified objective, as well as the optimal
    weights of the compressed network, does not depend on the realization of the target
    network, but only on expected scaling factors. Furthermore, for networks with
    ReLU activation, we conjecture that the optimum of the simplified optimization
    problem is achieved by taking weights on the Equiangular Tight Frame (ETF), while
    the scaling of the weights and the orientation of the ETF depend on the parameters
    of the target network. Numerical evidence is provided to support this conjecture.

  text: We consider the problem of signal estimation in generalized linear models
    defined via rotationally invariant design matrices. Since these matrices can have
    an arbitrary spectral distribution, this model is well suited for capturing complex
    correlation structures which often arise in applications. We propose a novel family
    of approximate message passing (AMP) algorithms for signal estimation, and rigorously
    characterize their performance in the high-dimensional limit via a state evolution
    recursion. Our rotationally invariant AMP has complexity of the same order as
    the existing AMP derived under the restrictive assumption of a Gaussian design;
    our algorithm also recovers this existing AMP as a special case. Numerical results
    showcase a performance close to Vector AMP (which is conjectured to be Bayes-optimal
    in some settings), but obtained with a much lower complexity, as the proposed
    algorithm does not require a computationally expensive singular value decomposition.

  text: We treat the problem of risk-aware control for stochastic shortest path (SSP)
    on Markov decision processes (MDP). Typically, expectation is considered for SSP,
    which however is oblivious to the incurred risk. We present an alternative view,
    instead optimizing conditional value-at-risk (CVaR), an established risk measure.
    We treat both Markov chains as well as MDP and introduce, through novel insights,
    two algorithms, based on linear programming and value iteration, respectively.
    Both algorithms offer precise and provably correct solutions. Evaluation of our
    prototype implementation shows that risk-aware control is feasible on several
    moderately sized models.

  text: Supraglacial debris strongly modulates glacier melt rates and can be decisive
    for ice dynamics and mountain hydrology. It is ubiquitous in High-Mountain Asia,
    yet because its thickness and supply rate from local topography are poorly known,
    our ability to forecast regional glacier change and streamflow is limited. Here
    we combined remote sensing and numerical modelling to resolve supraglacial debris
    thickness by altitude for 4689 glaciers in High-Mountain Asia, and debris-supply
    rate to 4141 of those glaciers. Our results reveal extensively thin supraglacial
    debris and high spatial variability in both debris thickness and supply rate.
    Debris-supply rate increases with the temperature and slope of debris-supply slopes
    regionally, and debris thickness increases as ice flow decreases locally. Our
    centennial-scale estimates of debris-supply rate are typically an order of magnitude
    or more lower than millennial-scale estimates of headwall-erosion rate from Beryllium-10
    cosmogenic nuclides, potentially reflecting episodic debris supply to the region’s
    glaciers.

  text: Melt from supraglacial ice cliffs is an important contributor to the mass
    loss of debris-covered glaciers. However, ice cliff contribution is difficult
    to quantify as they are highly dynamic features, and the paucity of observations
    of melt rates and their variability leads to large modelling uncertainties. We
    quantify monsoon season melt and 3D evolution of four ice cliffs over two debris-covered
    glaciers in High Mountain Asia (Langtang Glacier, Nepal, and 24K Glacier, China)
    at very high resolution using terrestrial photogrammetry applied to imagery captured
    from time-lapse cameras installed on lateral moraines. We derive weekly flow-corrected
    digital elevation models (DEMs) of the glacier surface with a maximum vertical
    bias of ±0.2 m for Langtang Glacier and ±0.05 m for 24K Glacier and use change
    detection to determine distributed melt rates at the surfaces of the ice cliffs
    throughout the study period. We compare the measured melt patterns with those
    derived from a 3D energy balance model to derive the contribution of the main
    energy fluxes. We find that ice cliff melt varies considerably throughout the
    melt season, with maximum melt rates of 5 to 8 cm d−1, and their average melt
    rates are 11–14 (Langtang) and 4.5 (24K) times higher than the surrounding debris-covered
    ice. Our results highlight the influence of redistributed supraglacial debris
    on cliff melt. At both sites, ice cliff albedo is influenced by the presence of
    thin debris at the ice cliff surface, which is largely controlled on 24K Glacier
    by liquid precipitation events that wash away this debris. Slightly thicker or
    patchy debris reduces melt by 1–3 cm d−1 at all sites. Ultimately, our observations
    show a strong spatio-temporal variability in cliff area at each site, which is
    controlled by supraglacial streams and ponds and englacial cavities that promote
    debris slope destabilisation and the lateral expansion of the cliffs. These findings
    highlight the need to better represent processes of debris redistribution in ice
    cliff models, to in turn improve estimates of ice cliff contribution to glacier
    melt and the long-term geomorphological evolution of debris-covered glacier surfaces.

  text: The current Chilean megadrought has led to acute water shortages in central
    Chile since 2010. Glaciers have provided vital fresh water to the region's rivers,
    but the quantity, timing and sustainability of that provision remain unclear.
    Here we combine in-situ, remote sensing and climate reanalysis data to show that
    from 2010 to 2018 during the megadrought, unsustainable imbalance ablation of
    glaciers (ablation not balanced by new snowfall) strongly buffered the late-summer
    discharge of the Maipo River, a primary source of water to Santiago. If there
    had been no glaciers, water availability would have been reduced from December
    through May, with a 31 ± 19% decrease during March. Our results indicate that
    while the annual contributions of imbalance ablation to river discharge during
    the megadrought have been small compared to those from precipitation and sustainable
    balance ablation, they have nevertheless been a substantial input to a hydrological
    system that was already experiencing high water stress. The water-equivalent volume
    of imbalance ablation generated in the Maipo Basin between 2010 and 2018 was 740
    × 106 m3 (19 ± 12 mm yr−1), approximately 3.4 times the capacity of the basin's
    El Yeso Reservoir. This is equivalent to 14% of Santiago's potable water use in
    that time, while total glacier ablation was equivalent to 59%. We show that glacier
    retreat will exacerbate river discharge deficits and further jeopardize water
    availability in central Chile if precipitation deficits endure, and conjecture
    that these effects will be amplified by climatic warming.

  text: Glacier health across High Mountain Asia (HMA) is highly heterogeneous and
    strongly governed by regional climate, which is variably influenced by monsoon
    dynamics and the westerlies. We explore four decades of glacier energy and mass
    balance at three climatically distinct sites across HMA by utilising a detailed
    land surface model driven by bias-corrected Weather Research and Forecasting meteorological
    forcing. All three glaciers have experienced long-term mass losses (ranging from
    −0.04 ± 0.09 to −0.59 ± 0.20 m w.e. a<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>) consistent with
    widespread warming across the region. However, complex and contrasting responses
    of glacier energy and mass balance to the patterns of the Indian Summer Monsoon
    were evident, largely driven by the role snowfall timing, amount and phase. A
    later monsoon onset generates less total snowfall to the glacier in the southeastern
    Tibetan Plateau during May–June, augmenting net shortwave radiation and affecting
    annual mass balance (−0.5 m w.e. on average compared to early onset years). Conversely,
    timing of the monsoon’s arrival has limited impact for the Nepalese Himalaya which
    is more strongly governed by the temperature and snowfall amount during the core
    monsoon season. In the arid central Tibetan Plateau, a later monsoon arrival results
    in a 40 mm (58%) increase of May–June snowfall on average compared to early onset
    years, likely driven by the greater interaction of westerly storm events. Meanwhile,
    a late monsoon cessation at this site sees an average 200 mm (192%) increase in
    late summer precipitation due to monsoonal storms. A trend towards weaker intensity
    monsoon conditions in recent decades, combined with long-term warming patterns,
    has produced predominantly negative glacier mass balances for all sites (up to
    1 m w.e. more mass loss in the Nepalese Himalaya compared to strong monsoon intensity
    years) but sub-regional variability in monsoon timing can additionally complicate
    this response.

  text: Glaciers are key components of the mountain water towers of Asia and are vital
    for downstream domestic, agricultural, and industrial uses. The glacier mass loss
    rate over the southeastern Tibetan Plateau is among the highest in Asia and has
    accelerated in recent decades. This acceleration has been attributed to increased
    warming, but the mechanisms behind these glaciers’ high sensitivity to warming
    remain unclear, while the influence of changes in precipitation over the past
    decades is poorly quantified. Here, we reconstruct glacier mass changes and catchment
    runoff since 1975 at a benchmark glacier, Parlung No. 4, to shed light on the
    drivers of recent mass losses for the monsoonal, spring-accumulation glaciers
    of the Tibetan Plateau. Our modeling demonstrates how a temperature increase (mean
    of 0.39<jats:sup>∘</jats:sup>C ⋅dec<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>since 1990) has accelerated
    mass loss rates by altering both the ablation and accumulation regimes in a complex
    manner. The majority of the post-2000 mass loss occurred during the monsoon months,
    caused by simultaneous decreases in the solid precipitation ratio (from 0.70 to
    0.56) and precipitation amount (–10%), leading to reduced monsoon accumulation
    (–26%). Higher solid precipitation in spring (+18%) during the last two decades
    was increasingly important in mitigating glacier mass loss by providing mass to
    the glacier and protecting it from melting in the early monsoon. With bare ice
    exposed to warmer temperatures for longer periods, icemelt and catchment discharge
    have unsustainably intensified since the start of the 21st century, raising concerns
    for long-term water supply and hazard occurrence in the region.

  text: "Currently, about 12 %–13 % of High Mountain Asia’s glacier area is debris-covered,
    which alters its surface mass balance. However, in regional-scale modelling approaches,
    debris-covered glaciers are typically treated as clean-ice glaciers, leading to
    a bias when modelling their future evolution. Here, we present a new approach
    for modelling debris area and thickness evolution, applicable from single glaciers
    to the global scale. We derive a parameterization and implement it as a module
    into the Global Glacier Evolution Model (GloGEMflow), a combined mass-balance
    ice-flow model. The module is initialized with both glacier-specific observations
    of the debris' spatial distribution and estimates of debris thickness. These data
    sets account for the fact that debris can either enhance or reduce surface melt
    depending on thickness. Our model approach also enables representing the spatiotemporal
    evolution of debris extent and thickness. We calibrate and evaluate the module
    on a selected subset of glaciers and apply GloGEMflow using different climate
    scenarios to project the future evolution of all glaciers in High Mountain Asia
    until 2100. Explicitly accounting for debris cover has only a minor effect on
    the projected mass loss, which is in line with previous projections. Despite this
    small effect, we argue that the improved process representation is of added value
    when aiming at capturing intra-glacier scales, i.e. spatial mass-balance distribution.\r\nDepending
    on the climate scenario, the mean debris-cover fraction is expected to increase,
    while mean debris thickness is projected to show only minor changes, although
    large local thickening is expected. To isolate the influence of explicitly accounting
    for supraglacial debris cover, we re-compute glacier evolution without the debris-cover
    module. We show that glacier geometry, area, volume, and flow velocity evolve
    differently, especially at the level of individual glaciers. This highlights the
    importance of accounting for debris cover and its spatiotemporal evolution when
    projecting future glacier changes."

  text: "The Indian and East Asian summer monsoons shape the melt and accumulation
    patterns of glaciers in High Mountain Asia in complex ways due to the interaction
    of persistent cloud cover, large temperature ranges, high atmospheric water content
    and high precipitation rates. Glacier energy- and mass-balance modelling using
    in situ measurements offers insights into the ways in which surface processes
    are shaped by climatic regimes. In this study, we use a full energy- and mass-balance
    model and seven on-glacier automatic weather station datasets from different parts
    of the Central and Eastern Himalaya to investigate how monsoon conditions influence
    the glacier surface energy and mass balance. In particular, we look at how debris-covered
    and debris-free glaciers respond differently to monsoonal conditions.\r\nThe radiation
    budget primarily controls the melt of clean-ice glaciers, but turbulent fluxes
    play an important role in modulating the melt energy on debris-covered glaciers.
    The sensible heat flux decreases during core monsoon, but the latent heat flux
    cools the surface due to evaporation of liquid water. This interplay of radiative
    and turbulent fluxes causes debris-covered glacier melt rates to stay almost constant
    through the different phases of the monsoon. Ice melt under thin debris, on the
    other hand, is amplified by both the dark surface and the turbulent fluxes, which
    intensify melt during monsoon through surface heating and condensation.\r\nPre-monsoon
    snow cover can considerably delay melt onset and have a strong impact on the seasonal
    mass balance. Intermittent monsoon snow cover lowers the melt rates at high elevation.
    This work is fundamental to the understanding of the present and future Himalayan
    cryosphere and water budget, while informing and motivating further glacier- and
    catchment-scale research using process-based models."

  text: River systems originating from the Upper Indus Basin (UIB) are dominated by
    runoff from snow and glacier melt and summer monsoonal rainfall. These water resources
    are highly stressed as huge populations of people living in this region depend
    on them, including for agriculture, domestic use, and energy production. Projections
    suggest that the UIB region will be affected by considerable (yet poorly quantified)
    changes to the seasonality and composition of runoff in the future, which are
    likely to have considerable impacts on these supplies. Given how directly and
    indirectly communities and ecosystems are dependent on these resources and the
    growing pressure on them due to ever-increasing demands, the impacts of climate
    change pose considerable adaptation challenges. The strong linkages between hydroclimate,
    cryosphere, water resources, and human activities within the UIB suggest that
    a multi- and inter-disciplinary research approach integrating the social and natural/environmental
    sciences is critical for successful adaptation to ongoing and future hydrological
    and climate change. Here we use a horizon scanning technique to identify the Top
    100 questions related to the most pressing knowledge gaps and research priorities
    in social and natural sciences on climate change and water in the UIB. These questions
    are on the margins of current thinking and investigation and are clustered into
    14 themes, covering three overarching topics of “governance, policy, and sustainable
    solutions”, “socioeconomic processes and livelihoods”, and “integrated Earth System
    processes”. Raising awareness of these cutting-edge knowledge gaps and opportunities
    will hopefully encourage researchers, funding bodies, practitioners, and policy
    makers to address them.

  text: Topographic development via paraglacial slope failure (PSF) represents a complex
    interplay between geological structure, climate, and glacial denudation. Southeastern
    Tibet has experienced amongst the highest rates of ice mass loss in High Mountain
    Asia in recent decades, but few studies have focused on the implications of this
    mass loss on the stability of paraglacial slopes. We used repeat satellite- and
    unpiloted aerial vehicle (UAV)-derived imagery between 1990 and 2020 as the basis
    for mapping PSFs from slopes adjacent to Hailuogou Glacier (HLG), a 5 km long
    monsoon temperate valley glacier in the Mt. Gongga region. We observed recent
    lowering of the glacier tongue surface at rates of up to 0.88 m a−1 in the period
    2000 to 2016, whilst overall paraglacial bare ground area (PBGA) on glacier-adjacent
    slopes increased from 0.31 ± 0.27 km2 in 1990 to 1.38 ± 0.06 km2 in 2020. Decadal
    PBGA expansion rates were ∼ 0.01 km2 a−1, 0.02 km2 a−1, and 0.08 km2 in the periods
    1990–2000, 2000–2011, and 2011–2020 respectively, indicating an increasing rate
    of expansion of PBGA. Three types of PSFs, including rockfalls, sediment-mantled
    slope slides, and headward gully erosion, were mapped, with a total area of 0.75 ± 0.03 km2
    in 2020. South-facing valley slopes (true left of the glacier) exhibited more
    destabilization (56 % of the total PSF area) than north-facing (true right) valley
    slopes (44 % of the total PSF area). Deformation of sediment-mantled moraine slopes
    (mean 1.65–2.63 ± 0.04 cm d−1) and an increase in erosion activity in ice-marginal
    tributary valleys caused by a drop in local base level (gully headward erosion
    rates are 0.76–3.39 cm d−1) have occurred in tandem with recent glacier downwasting.
    We also observe deformation of glacier ice, possibly driven by destabilization
    of lateral moraine, as has been reported in other deglaciating mountain glacier
    catchments. The formation, evolution, and future trajectory of PSFs at HLG (as
    well as other monsoon-dominated deglaciating mountain areas) are related to glacial
    history, including recent rapid downwasting leading to the exposure of steep,
    unstable bedrock and moraine slopes, and climatic conditions that promote slope
    instability, such as very high seasonal precipitation and seasonal temperature
    fluctuations that are conducive to freeze–thaw and ice segregation processes.

  text: Supraglacial debris covers 7% of mountain glacier area globally and generally
    reduces glacier surface melt. Enhanced energy absorption at ice cliffs and supraglacial
    ponds scattered across the debris surface leads these features to contribute disproportionately
    to glacier-wide ablation. However, the degree to which cliffs and ponds actually
    increase melt rates remains unclear, as these features have only been studied
    in a detailed manner for selected locations, almost exclusively in High Mountain
    Asia. In this study we model the surface energy balance for debris-covered ice,
    ice cliffs, and supraglacial ponds with a set of automatic weather station records
    representing the global prevalence of debris-covered glacier ice. We generate
    5000 random sets of values for physical parameters using probability distributions
    derived from literature, which we use to investigate relative melt rates and to
    isolate the melt responses of debris, cliffs and ponds to the site-specific meteorological
    forcing. Modelled sub-debris melt rates are primarily controlled by debris thickness
    and thermal conductivity. At a reference thickness of 0.1 m, sub-debris melt rates
    vary considerably, differing by up to a factor of four between sites, mainly attributable
    to air temperature differences. We find that melt rates for ice cliffs are consistently
    2–3× the melt rate for clean glacier ice, but this melt enhancement decays with
    increasing clean ice melt rates. Energy absorption at supraglacial ponds is dominated
    by latent heat exchange and is therefore highly sensitive to wind speed and relative
    humidity, but is generally less than for clean ice. Our results provide reference
    melt enhancement factors for melt modelling of debris-covered glacier sites, globally,
    while highlighting the need for direct measurement of debris-covered glacier surface
    characteristics, physical parameters, and local meteorological conditions at a
    variety of sites around the world.

  text: Randomized smoothing is currently considered the state-of-the-art method to
    obtain certifiably robust classifiers. Despite its remarkable performance, the
    method is associated with various serious problems such as “certified accuracy
    waterfalls”, certification vs. accuracy trade-off, or even fairness issues. Input-dependent
    smoothing approaches have been proposed with intention of overcoming these flaws.
    However, we demonstrate that these methods lack formal guarantees and so the resulting
    certificates are not justified. We show that in general, the input-dependent smoothing
    suffers from the curse of dimensionality, forcing the variance function to have
    low semi-elasticity. On the other hand, we provide a theoretical and practical
    framework that enables the usage of input-dependent smoothing even in the presence
    of the curse of dimensionality, under strict restrictions. We present one concrete
    design of the smoothing variance function and test it on CIFAR10 and MNIST. Our
    design mitigates some of the problems of classical smoothing and is formally underlined,
    yet further improvement of the design is still necessary.

  text: DNA methylation plays essential homeostatic functions in eukaryotic genomes.
    In animals, DNA methylation is also developmentally regulated and, in turn, regulates
    development. In the past two decades, huge research effort has endorsed the understanding
    that DNA methylation plays a similar role in plant development, especially during
    sexual reproduction. The power of whole-genome sequencing and cell isolation techniques,
    as well as bioinformatics tools, have enabled recent studies to reveal dynamic
    changes in DNA methylation during germline development. Furthermore, the combination
    of these technological advances with genetics, developmental biology and cell
    biology tools has revealed functional methylation reprogramming events that control
    gene and transposon activities in flowering plant germlines. In this review, we
    discuss the major advances in our knowledge of DNA methylation dynamics during
    male and female germline development in flowering plants.

  text: Sperm chromatin is typically transformed by protamines into a compact and
    transcriptionally inactive state1,2. Sperm cells of flowering plants lack protamines,
    yet they have small, transcriptionally active nuclei with chromatin condensed
    through an unknown mechanism3,4. Here we show that a histone variant, H2B.8, mediates
    sperm chromatin and nuclear condensation in Arabidopsis thaliana. Loss of H2B.8
    causes enlarged sperm nuclei with dispersed chromatin, whereas ectopic expression
    in somatic cells produces smaller nuclei with aggregated chromatin. This result
    demonstrates that H2B.8 is sufficient for chromatin condensation. H2B.8 aggregates
    transcriptionally inactive AT-rich chromatin into phase-separated condensates,
    which facilitates nuclear compaction without reducing transcription. Reciprocal
    crosses show that mutation of h2b.8 reduces male transmission, which suggests
    that H2B.8-mediated sperm compaction is important for fertility. Altogether, our
    results reveal a new mechanism of nuclear compaction through global aggregation
    of unexpressed chromatin. We propose that H2B.8 is an evolutionary innovation
    of flowering plants that achieves nuclear condensation compatible with active
    transcription.

  text: "In modern sample-driven Prophet Inequality, an adversary chooses a sequence
    of n items with values v1,v2,…,vn to be presented to a decision maker (DM). The
    process follows in two phases. In the first phase (sampling phase), some items,
    possibly selected at random, are revealed to the DM, but she can never accept
    them. In the second phase, the DM is presented with the other items in a random
    order and online fashion. For each item, she must make an irrevocable decision
    to either accept the item and stop the process or reject the item forever and
    proceed to the next item. The goal of the DM is to maximize the expected value
    as compared to a Prophet (or offline algorithm) that has access to all information.
    In this setting, the sampling phase has no cost and is not part of the optimization
    process. However, in many scenarios, the samples are obtained as part of the decision-making
    process.\r\nWe model this aspect as a two-phase Prophet Inequality where an adversary
    chooses a sequence of 2n items with values v1,v2,…,v2n and the items are randomly
    ordered. Finally, there are two phases of the Prophet Inequality problem with
    the first n-items and the rest of the items, respectively. We show that some basic
    algorithms achieve a ratio of at most 0.450. We present an algorithm that achieves
    a ratio of at least 0.495. Finally, we show that for every algorithm the ratio
    it can achieve is at most 0.502. Hence our algorithm is near-optimal."

  text: Given a place  ω  of a global function field  K  over a finite field, with
    associated affine function ring  Rω  and completion  Kω , the aim of this paper
    is to give an effective joint equidistribution result for renormalized primitive
    lattice points  (a,b)∈Rω2  in the plane  Kω2 , and for renormalized solutions
    to the gcd equation  ax+by=1 . The main tools are techniques of Goronik and Nevo
    for counting lattice points in well-rounded families of subsets. This gives a
    sharper analog in positive characteristic of a result of Nevo and the first author
    for the equidistribution of the primitive lattice points in  \ZZ2 .
acknowledgement: "The authors warmly thank Amos Nevo for having presented the authors
  to each other during\r\na beautiful conference in Goa in February 2016, where the
  idea of this paper was born. The\r\nfirst author thanks the IHES for two post-doctoral
  years when most of this paper was discussed,\r\nand the Topology team in Orsay for
  financial support at the final stage. The first author was\r\nsupported by the EPRSC
  EP/P026710/1 grant. Finally, we warmly thank the referee for many\r\nvery helpful
  comments that have improved the readability of this paper."

  text: "We consider the problem of approximating the reachability probabilities in
    Markov decision processes (MDP) with uncountable (continuous) state and action
    spaces. While there are algorithms that, for special classes of such MDP, provide
    a sequence of approximations converging to the true value in the limit, our aim
    is to obtain an algorithm with guarantees on the precision of the approximation.\r\nAs
    this problem is undecidable in general, assumptions on the MDP are necessary.
    Our main contribution is to identify sufficient assumptions that are as weak as
    possible, thus approaching the \"boundary\" of which systems can be correctly
    and reliably analyzed. To this end, we also argue why each of our assumptions
    is necessary for algorithms based on processing finitely many observations.\r\nWe
    present two solution variants. The first one provides converging lower bounds
    under weaker assumptions than typical ones from previous works concerned with
    guarantees. The second one then utilizes stronger assumptions to additionally
    provide converging upper bounds. Altogether, we obtain an anytime algorithm, i.e.
    yielding a sequence of approximants with known and iteratively improving precision,
    converging to the true value in the limit. Besides, due to the generality of our
    assumptions, our algorithms are very general templates, readily allowing for various
    heuristics from literature in contrast to, e.g., a specific discretization algorithm.
    Our theoretical contribution thus paves the way for future practical improvements
    without sacrificing correctness guarantees."

  text: An improved asymptotic formula is established for the number of rational points
    of bounded height on the split smooth del Pezzo surface of degree 5. The proof
    uses the five conic bundle structures on the surface.
acknowledgement: This work was begun while the author was participating in the programme
  on "Diophantine equations" at the Hausdorff Research Institute for Mathematics in
  Bonn in 2009. The hospitality and financial support of the institute is gratefully
  acknowledged. The idea of using conic bundles to study the split del Pezzo surface
  of degree 5 was explained to the author by Professor Salberger. The author is very
  grateful to him for his input into this project and also to Shuntaro Yamagishi for
  many useful comments on an earlier version of this manuscript. While working on
