  text: The chemical potential of adsorbed or confined fluids provides insight into
    their unique thermodynamic properties and determines adsorption isotherms. However,
    it is often difficult to compute this quantity from atomistic simulations using
    existing statistical mechanical methods. We introduce a computational framework
    that utilizes static structure factors, thermodynamic integration, and free energy
    perturbation for calculating the absolute chemical potential of fluids. For demonstration,
    we apply the method to compute the adsorption isotherms of carbon dioxide in a
    metal-organic framework and water in carbon nanotubes.

  text: Machine learning (ML) has been widely applied to chemical property prediction,
    most prominently for the energies and forces in molecules and materials. The strong
    interest in predicting energies in particular has led to a ‘local energy’-based
    paradigm for modern atomistic ML models, which ensures size-extensivity and a
    linear scaling of computational cost with system size. However, many electronic
    properties (such as excitation energies or ionization energies) do not necessarily
    scale linearly with system size and may even be spatially localized. Using size-extensive
    models in these cases can lead to large errors. In this work, we explore different
    strategies for learning intensive and localized properties, using HOMO energies
    in organic molecules as a representative test case. In particular, we analyze
    the pooling functions that atomistic neural networks use to predict molecular
    properties, and suggest an orbital weighted average (OWA) approach that enables
    the accurate prediction of orbital energies and locations.

  text: 'Water adsorption and dissociation processes on pristine low-index TiO2 interfaces
    are important but poorly understood outside the well-studied anatase (101) and
    rutile (110). To understand these, we construct three sets of machine learning
    potentials that are simultaneously applicable to various TiO2 surfaces, based
    on three density-functional-theory approximations. Here we show the water dissociation
    free energies on seven pristine TiO2 surfaces, and predict that anatase (100),
    anatase (110), rutile (001), and rutile (011) favor water dissociation, anatase
    (101) and rutile (100) have mostly molecular adsorption, while the simulations
    of rutile (110) sensitively depend on the slab thickness and molecular adsorption
    is preferred with thick slabs. Moreover, using an automated algorithm, we reveal
    that these surfaces follow different types of atomistic mechanisms for proton
    transfer and water dissociation: one-step, two-step, or both. These mechanisms
    can be rationalized based on the arrangements of water molecules on the different
    surfaces. Our finding thus demonstrates that the different pristine TiO2 surfaces
    react with water in distinct ways, and cannot be represented using just the low-energy
    anatase (101) and rutile (110) surfaces.'

  text: Computing the solubility of crystals in a solvent using atomistic simulations
    is notoriously challenging due to the complexities and convergence issues associated
    with free-energy methods, as well as the slow equilibration in direct-coexistence
    simulations. This paper introduces a molecular-dynamics workflow that simplifies
    and robustly computes the solubility of molecular or ionic crystals. This method
    is considerably more straightforward than the state-of-the-art, as we have streamlined
    and optimised each step of the process. Specifically, we calculate the chemical
    potential of the crystal using the gas-phase molecule as a reference state, and
    employ the S0 method to determine the concentration dependence of the chemical
    potential of the solute. We use this workflow to predict the solubilities of sodium
    chloride in water, urea polymorphs in water, and paracetamol polymorphs in both
    water and ethanol. Our findings indicate that the predicted solubility is sensitive
    to the chosen potential energy surface. Furthermore, we note that the harmonic
    approximation often fails for both molecular crystals and gas molecules at or
    above room temperature, and that the assumption of an ideal solution becomes less
    valid for highly soluble substances.

  text: We study ab initio approaches for calculating x-ray Thomson scattering spectra
    from density functional theory molecular dynamics simulations based on a modified
    Chihara formula that expresses the inelastic contribution in terms of the dielectric
    function. We study the electronic dynamic structure factor computed from the Mermin
    dielectric function using an ab initio electron-ion collision frequency in comparison
    to computations using a linear-response time-dependent density functional theory
    (LR-TDDFT) framework for hydrogen and beryllium and investigate the dispersion
    of free-free and bound-free contributions to the scattering signal. A separate
    treatment of these contributions, where only the free-free part follows the Mermin
    dispersion, shows good agreement with LR-TDDFT results for ambient-density beryllium,
    but breaks down for highly compressed matter where the bound states become pressure
    ionized. LR-TDDFT is used to reanalyze x-ray Thomson scattering experiments on
    beryllium demonstrating strong deviations from the plasma conditions inferred
    with traditional analytic models at small scattering angles.

  text: The phonon transport mechanisms and ultralow lattice thermal conductivities
    (κL) in silver halide AgX (X=Cl,Br,I) compounds are not yet well understood. Herein,
    we study the lattice dynamics and thermal property of AgX under the framework
    of perturbation theory and the two-channel Wigner thermal transport model based
    on accurate machine learning potentials. We find that an accurate extraction of
    the third-order atomic force constants from largely displaced configurations is
    significant for the calculation of the κL of AgX, and the coherence thermal transport
    is also non-negligible. In AgI, however, the calculated κL still considerably
    overestimates the experimental values even including four-phonon scatterings.
    Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using machine learning potential suggest an
    important role of the higher-than-fourth-order lattice anharmonicity in the low-frequency
    phonon linewidths of AgI at room temperature, which can be related to the simultaneous
    restrictions of the three- and four-phonon phase spaces. The κL of AgI calculated
    using MD phonon lifetimes including full-order lattice anharmonicity shows a better
    agreement with experiments.

  text: Physical catalysts often have multiple sites where reactions can take place.
    One prominent example is single-atom alloys, where the reactive dopant atoms can
    preferentially locate in the bulk or at different sites on the surface of the
    nanoparticle. However, ab initio modeling of catalysts usually only considers
    one site of the catalyst, neglecting the effects of multiple sites. Here, nanoparticles
    of copper doped with single-atom rhodium or palladium are modeled for the dehydrogenation
    of propane. Single-atom alloy nanoparticles are simulated at 400–600 K, using
    machine learning potentials trained on density functional theory calculations,
    and then the occupation of different single-atom active sites is identified using
    a similarity kernel. Further, the turnover frequency for all possible sites is
    calculated for propane dehydrogenation to propene through microkinetic modeling
    using density functional theory calculations. The total turnover frequencies of
    the whole nanoparticle are then described from both the population and the individual
    turnover frequency of each site. Under operating conditions, rhodium as a dopant
    is found to almost exclusively occupy (111) surface sites while palladium as a
    dopant occupies a greater variety of facets. Undercoordinated dopant surface sites
    are found to tend to be more reactive for propane dehydrogenation compared to
    the (111) surface. It is found that considering the dynamics of the single-atom
    alloy nanoparticle has a profound effect on the calculated catalytic activity
    of single-atom alloys by several orders of magnitude.

  text: Under high pressures and temperatures, molecular systems with substantial
    polarization charges, such as ammonia and water, are predicted to form superionic
    phases and dense fluid states with dissociating molecules and high electrical
    conductivity. This behaviour potentially plays a role in explaining the origin
    of the multipolar magnetic fields of Uranus and Neptune, whose mantles are thought
    to result from a mixture of H2O, NH3 and CH4 ices. Determining the stability domain,
    melting curve and electrical conductivity of these superionic phases is therefore
    crucial for modelling planetary interiors and dynamos. Here we report the melting
    curve of superionic ammonia up to 300 GPa from laser-driven shock compression
    of pre-compressed samples and atomistic calculations. We show that ammonia melts
    at lower temperatures than water above 100 GPa and that fluid ammonia’s electrical
    conductivity exceeds that of water at conditions predicted by hot, super-adiabatic
    models for Uranus and Neptune, and enhances the conductivity in their fluid water-rich
    dynamo layers.

  text: We calculate reflectivities of dynamically compressed water, water-ethanol
    mixtures, and ammonia at infrared and optical wavelengths with density functional
    theory and molecular dynamics simulations. The influence of the exchange-correlation
    functional on the results is examined in detail. Our findings indicate that the
    consistent use of the HSE hybrid functional reproduces experimental results much
    better than the commonly used PBE functional. The HSE functional offers not only
    a more accurate description of the electronic band gap but also shifts the onset
    of molecular dissociation in the molecular dynamics simulations to significantly
    higher pressures. We also highlight the importance of using accurate reference
    standards in reflectivity experiments and reanalyze infrared and optical reflectivity
    data from recent experiments. Thus, our combined theoretical and experimental
    work explains and resolves lingering discrepancies between calculations and measurements
    for the investigated molecular substances under shock compression.

  text: Most permissionless blockchains inherently suffer from throughput limitations.
    Layer-2 systems, such as side-chains or Rollups, have been proposed as a possible
    strategy to overcome this limitation. Layer-2 systems interact with the main-chain
    in two ways. First, users can move funds from/to the main-chain to/from the layer-2.
    Second, layer-2 systems periodically synchronize with the main-chain to keep some
    form of log of their activity on the main-chain - this log is key for security.
    Due to this interaction with the main-chain, which is necessary and recurrent,
    layer-2 systems impose some load on the main-chain. The impact of such load on
    the main-chain has been, so far, poorly understood. In addition to that, layer-2
    approaches typically sacrifice decentralization and security in favor of higher
    throughput. This paper presents an experimental study that analyzes the current
    state of Ethereum layer-2 projects. Our goal is to assess the load they impose
    on Ethereum and to understand their scalability potential in the long-run. Our
    analysis shows that the impact of any given layer-2 on the main-chain is the result
    of both technical aspects (how state is logged on the main-chain) and user behavior
    (how often users decide to transfer funds between the layer-2 and the main-chain).
    Based on our observations, we infer that without efficient mechanisms that allow
    users to transfer funds in a secure and fast manner directly from one layer-2
    project to another, current layer-2 systems will not be able to scale Ethereum
    effectively, regardless of their technical solutions. Furthermore, from our results,
    we conclude that the layer-2 systems that offer similar security guarantees as
    Ethereum have limited scalability potential, while approaches that offer better
    performance, sacrifice security and lead to an increase in centralization which
    runs against the end-goals of permissionless blockchains.

  text: "Deep learning has become an integral part of a large number of important
    applications, and many of the recent breakthroughs have been enabled by the ability
    to train very large models, capable to capture complex patterns and relationships
    from the data. At the same time, the massive sizes of modern deep learning models
    have made their deployment to smaller devices more challenging; this is particularly
    important, as in many applications the users rely on accurate deep learning predictions,
    but they only have access to devices with limited memory and compute power. One
    solution to this problem is to prune neural networks, by setting as many of their
    parameters as possible to zero, to obtain accurate sparse models with lower memory
    footprint. Despite the great research progress in obtaining sparse models that
    preserve accuracy, while satisfying memory and computational constraints, there
    are still many challenges associated with efficiently training sparse models,
    as well as understanding their generalization properties.\r\n\r\nThe focus of
    this thesis is to investigate how the training process of sparse models can be
    made more efficient, and to understand the differences between sparse and dense
    models in terms of how well they can generalize to changes in the data distribution.
    We first study a method for co-training sparse and dense models, at a lower cost
    compared to regular training. With our method we can obtain very accurate sparse
    networks, and dense models that can recover the baseline accuracy. Furthermore,
    we are able to more easily analyze the differences, at prediction level, between
    the sparse-dense model pairs. Next, we investigate the generalization properties
    of sparse neural networks in more detail, by studying how well different sparse
    models trained on a larger task can adapt to smaller, more specialized tasks,
    in a transfer learning scenario. Our analysis across multiple pruning methods
    and sparsity levels reveals that sparse models provide features that can transfer
    similarly to or better than the dense baseline. However, the choice of the pruning
    method plays an important role, and can influence the results when the features
    are fixed (linear finetuning), or when they are allowed to adapt to the new task
    (full finetuning). Using sparse models with fixed masks for finetuning on new
    tasks has an important practical advantage, as it enables training neural networks
    on smaller devices. However, one drawback of current pruning methods is that the
    entire training cycle has to be repeated to obtain the initial sparse model, for
    every sparsity target; in consequence, the entire training process is costly and
    also multiple models need to be stored. In the last part of the thesis we propose
    a method that can train accurate dense models that are compressible in a single
    step, to multiple sparsity levels, without additional finetuning. Our method results
    in sparse models that can be competitive with existing pruning methods, and which
    can also successfully generalize to new tasks."

  text: The limited exchange between human communities is a key factor in preventing
    the spread of COVID-19. This paper introduces a digital framework that combines
    an integration of real mobility data at the country scale with a series of modeling
    techniques and visual capabilities that highlight mobility patterns before and
    during the pandemic. The findings not only significantly exhibit mobility trends
    and different degrees of similarities at regional and local levels but also provide
    potential insight into the emergence of a pandemic on human behavior patterns
    and their likely socio-economic impacts.

  text: We consider the problem of reconstructing the signal and the hidden variables
    from observations coming from a multi-layer network with rotationally invariant
    weight matrices. The multi-layer structure models inference from deep generative
    priors, and the rotational invariance imposed on the weights generalizes the i.i.d.
    Gaussian assumption by allowing for a complex correlation structure, which is
    typical in applications. In this work, we present a new class of approximate message
    passing (AMP) algorithms and give a state evolution recursion which precisely
    characterizes their performance in the large system limit. In contrast with the
    existing multi-layer VAMP (ML-VAMP) approach, our proposed AMP – dubbed multilayer
    rotationally invariant generalized AMP (ML-RI-GAMP) – provides a natural generalization
    beyond Gaussian designs, in the sense that it recovers the existing Gaussian AMP
    as a special case. Furthermore, ML-RI-GAMP exhibits a significantly lower complexity
    than ML-VAMP, as the computationally intensive singular value decomposition is
    replaced by an estimation of the moments of the design matrices. Finally, our
    numerical results show that this complexity gain comes at little to no cost in
    the performance of the algorithm.

  text: Adversarial training (i.e., training on adversarially perturbed input data)
    is a well-studied method for making neural networks robust to potential adversarial
    attacks during inference. However, the improved robustness does not come for free
    but rather is accompanied by a decrease in overall model accuracy and performance.
    Recent work has shown that, in practical robot learning applications, the effects
    of adversarial training do not pose a fair trade-off but inflict a net loss when
    measured in holistic robot performance. This work revisits the robustness-accuracy
    trade-off in robot learning by systematically analyzing if recent advances in
    robust training methods and theory in conjunction with adversarial robot learning,
    are capable of making adversarial training suitable for real-world robot applications.
    We evaluate three different robot learning tasks ranging from autonomous driving
    in a high-fidelity environment amenable to sim-to-real deployment to mobile robot
    navigation and gesture recognition. Our results demonstrate that, while these
    techniques make incremental improvements on the trade-off on a relative scale,
    the negative impact on the nominal accuracy caused by adversarial training still
    outweighs the improved robustness by an order of magnitude. We conclude that although
    progress is happening, further advances in robust learning methods are necessary
    before they can benefit robot learning tasks in practice.

  text: 'A classic solution technique for Markov decision processes (MDP) and stochastic
    games (SG) is value iteration (VI). Due to its good practical performance, this
    approximative approach is typically preferred over exact techniques, even though
    no practical bounds on the imprecision of the result could be given until recently.
    As a consequence, even the most used model checkers could return arbitrarily wrong
    results. Over the past decade, different works derived stopping criteria, indicating
    when the precision reaches the desired level, for various settings, in particular
    MDP with reachability, total reward, and mean payoff, and SG with reachability.In
    this paper, we provide the first stopping criteria for VI on SG with total reward
    and mean payoff, yielding the first anytime algorithms in these settings. To this
    end, we provide the solution in two flavours: First through a reduction to the
    MDP case and second directly on SG. The former is simpler and automatically utilizes
    any advances on MDP. The latter allows for more local computations, heading towards
    better practical efficiency.Our solution unifies the previously mentioned approaches
    for MDP and SG and their underlying ideas. To achieve this, we isolate objective-specific
    subroutines as well as identify objective-independent concepts. These structural
    concepts, while surprisingly simple, form the very essence of the unified solution.'

  text: 'We consider zero-error communication over a two-transmitter deterministic
    adversarial multiple access channel (MAC) governed by an adversary who has access
    to the transmissions of both senders (hence called omniscient ) and aims to maliciously
    corrupt the communication. None of the encoders, jammer and decoder is allowed
    to randomize using private or public randomness. This enforces a combinatorial
    nature of the problem. Our model covers a large family of channels studied in
    the literature, including all deterministic discrete memoryless noisy or noiseless
    MACs. In this work, given an arbitrary two-transmitter deterministic omniscient
    adversarial MAC, we characterize when the capacity region: 1) has nonempty interior
    (in particular, is two-dimensional); 2) consists of two line segments (in particular,
    has empty interior); 3) consists of one line segment (in particular, is one-dimensional);
    4) or only contains (0,0) (in particular, is zero-dimensional). This extends a
    recent result by Wang et al. (201 9) from the point-to-point setting to the multiple
    access setting. Indeed, our converse arguments build upon their generalized Plotkin
    bound and involve delicate case analysis. One of the technical challenges is to
    take care of both “joint confusability” and “marginal confusability”. In particular,
    the treatment of marginal confusability does not follow from the point-to-point
    results by Wang et al. Our achievability results follow from random coding with
    expurgation.'

  text: This paper is a collection of results on combinatorial properties of codes
    for the Z-channel . A Z-channel with error fraction τ takes as input a length-
    n binary codeword and injects in an adversarial manner up to n τ asymmetric errors,
    i.e., errors that only zero out bits but do not flip 0’s to 1’s. It is known that
    the largest ( L - 1)-list-decodable code for the Z-channel with error fraction
    τ has exponential size (in n ) if τ is less than a critical value that we call
    the ( L - 1)- list-decoding Plotkin point and has constant size if τ is larger
    than the threshold. The ( L -1)-list-decoding Plotkin point is known to be L -1/L-1
    – L -L/ L-1 , which equals 1/4 for unique-decoding with L -1 = 1. In this paper,
    we derive various results for the size of the largest codes above and below the
    list-decoding Plotkin point. In particular, we show that the largest ( L -1)-list-decodable
    code ε-above the Plotkin point, for any given sufficiently small positive constant
    ε > 0, has size Θ L (ε -3/2 ) for any L - 1 ≥ 1. We also devise upper and lower
    bounds on the exponential size of codes below the list-decoding Plotkin point.

  text: The safety-liveness dichotomy is a fundamental concept in formal languages
    which plays a key role in verification. Recently, this dichotomy has been lifted
    to quantitative properties, which are arbitrary functions from infinite words
    to partially-ordered domains. We look into harnessing the dichotomy for the specific
    classes of quantitative properties expressed by quantitative automata. These automata
    contain finitely many states and rational-valued transition weights, and their
    common value functions Inf, Sup, LimInf, LimSup, LimInfAvg, LimSupAvg, and DSum
    map infinite words into the totallyordered domain of real numbers. In this automata-theoretic
    setting, we establish a connection between quantitative safety and topological
    continuity and provide an alternative characterization of quantitative safety
    and liveness in terms of their boolean counterparts. For all common value functions,
    we show how the safety closure of a quantitative automaton can be constructed
    in PTime, and we provide PSpace-complete checks of whether a given quantitative
    automaton is safe or live, with the exception of LimInfAvg and LimSupAvg automata,
    for which the safety check is in ExpSpace. Moreover, for deterministic Sup, LimInf,
    and LimSup automata, we give PTime decompositions into safe and live automata.
    These decompositions enable the separation of techniques for safety and liveness
    verification for quantitative specifications.
acknowledgement: We thank Christof Löding for pointing us to some results on PSpace-hardess
  of universality problems and the anonymous reviewers for their helpful comments.

  text: Many modes and mechanisms of epigenetic inheritance have been elucidated in
    eukaryotes. Most of them are relatively short-term, generally not exceeding one
    or a few organismal generations. However, emerging evidence indicates that one
    mechanism, cytosine DNA methylation, can mediate epigenetic inheritance over much
    longer timescales, which are mostly or completely inaccessible in the laboratory.
    Here we discuss the evidence for, and mechanisms and implications of, such long-term
    epigenetic inheritance. We argue that compelling evidence supports the long-term
    epigenetic inheritance of gene body methylation, at least in the model angiosperm
    Arabidopsis thaliana, and that variation in such methylation can therefore serve
