A Physics-Informed Hybrid Neural Operator for Transient Magnetization Prediction in Power Magnetics

Magnetic components in high-frequency, high-power-density converters are increasingly driven by non-sinusoidal flux-density waveforms with fast transitions, minor-loop operation, dc bias, and temperature variation. Under these conditions, steady-state core-loss formulas and single-valued material curves cannot fully capture transient magnetization responses. This work proposes the Physics-Informed Hybrid Neural Operator (PI-HNO), a compact material-specific neural model with B-H energy-consistency regularization for core-loss-oriented transient magnetization prediction. Given the measured B(t)-H(t) history, the input B(t) series over the prediction interval and operating-condition information, PI-HNO predicts the H(t) series and the corresponding reconstructed B-H trajectory. The model integrates a local recurrent branch for boundary-state representation and rate-dependent response evolution with a Preisach-inspired global branch that extracts waveform-level hysteresis context. Evaluation on the MagNetX transient database using material-specific models for 14 ferrite materials demonstrates that PI-HNO achieves a compact trade-off between sequence accuracy and B(t)-H(t) energy consistency, with the mean and 95th percentile B(t)-H(t) energy consistency errors of 1.92% and 7.60%, respectively, using only 4777 trainable parameters per model. Ablation studies further demonstrate that the local, global, and energy-aware regularized components provide distinct contributions to transient magnetization prediction.

The origin of ferroelectricity, polarization and high resistivity in Aurivillius CaBi2B2O9 (B = Ta, Nb)

Aurivillius layered oxides are important candidates for high-temperature ferroelectric and piezoelectric application. In this work, we combine group theoretic analysis with first-principles calculations to systematically investigate the origin of ferroelectric phase transition, polarization, piezoelectric response, and intrinsic electrical insulation of the two-layer Aurivillius ferroelectrics CaBi$_{2}$B$_{2}$O$_{9}$ (B = Ta, Nb). The results show that the \textit{A2$_1$am} ferroelectric phase arises from the cooperative condensation of a polar mode and nonpolar oxygen octahedral rotation/tilting modes, whose the $Γ_5^-$X$_2^+$X$_3^-$ trilinear coupling substantially lowers the total energy and deepens the ferroelectric potential well. The spontaneous polarization and anisotropic piezoelectric response are governed primarily by the cooperative displacements of the Bi$_{2}$O$_{2}$ layers and Ta/NbO$_{6}$ octahedra, with Bi ions providing an indispensable contribution to both responses. More importantly, the polar distortion can be traced to the relative in-plane displacement between adjacent the Bi$_{2}$O$_{2}$ layer and the perovskite-like block. Because this displacement is intrinsic to the alternating Bi$_{2}$O$_{2}$/perovskite-block stacking topology and is independent of the number of perovskite layers, we identify interlayer sliding as a general, layer-number-independent structural mechanism for ferroelectricity in Aurivillius oxides. Our findings establish a unified microscopic picture linking structural distortions, ferroelectric polarization, piezoelectric response, and electronic insulation in CaBi$_{2}$B$_{2}$O$_{9}$ (B = Ta, Nb), and provide theoretical guidance for designing layered ferroelectric oxides with high Curie temperatures and robust insulating behavior.

Discourse-Role Labels as Presentation-Time Variables for Context Use in Language Models

Context-augmented language model systems often wrap supplied content with labels such as Reference:, Evidence:, Instruction:, Note:, or Example:, but the effect of these labels on reader-model behavior remains underexplored. We introduce a paired fixed-content probe over 500 MMLU-Pro items: each item receives the same misleading answer-bearing assertion under different discourse-role labels, and adoption is measured by whether the model outputs the injected wrong option. Across GPT-5.5, DeepSeek V4 Pro, Llama-3-8B-Instruct, and Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct, Misleading Adoption Rate shifts by 56-84 percentage points. Binding or source-like labels such as Instruction: and Reference: produce high adoption, whereas Example: consistently suppresses it. Paired tests, bootstrap intervals, final-instruction ablations, and Qwen final-step log-probability probes support a label-conditioned candidate preference. Boundary probes show where the effect weakens or persists: arithmetic tasks reduce adoption, passage-shaped external context preserves smaller label gaps, short-answer evaluation rules out option-letter copying, and nested-label conflicts suggest that illustrative framing can delimit adoption scope. A 200-case single-author manual audit confirms that the short-answer contrasts are stable under conservative adjudication. The resulting claim is bounded but practical: context-utilization and reader-side RAG benchmarks should report and control wrapper labels, because presentation choices can change measured reliance on supplied context.

Document-Authored Control-Signal Impersonation: A Low-Cost Indirect Prompt Attack on RAG Safety Boundaries

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems often serialize user queries, retrieved documents, metadata, system labels, and task instructions into one natural-language prompt. We study a source-authority boundary failure in this design: attacker-authored retrieved text can impersonate metadata, provenance, authority, or disclosure-policy signals that appear control-relevant to the model. We call this pattern Document-Authored Control-Signal Impersonation (DACSI). DACSI is a non-imperative, metadata-like payload subclass within indirect prompt injection. Its central lesson is simple: document-authored labels are data, not policy. Command-style injection asks the model to ignore, override, or violate policy; DACSI asks whether untrusted document text can be misattributed as an authorized control signal when RAG prompt rendering collapses trusted and untrusted text into the same natural-language channel. We evaluate DACSI across six model settings, prompt-pressure levels, injection baselines, signal taxonomies, RAG-mediated pipelines, system-control probes, a source-authority attribution probe, and synthetic canary formats. We interpret the evidence by model regime rather than as six equal replications: DeepSeek V4 Pro and Qwen3.5-397B provide the cleanest positive lift, DeepSeek V4 Flash is a high-susceptibility setting, GPT-5.5 and Gemini 3.1 Pro Low are strong-boundary probes with selected residual risks, and GLM-4.7 is a saturated leakage boundary case. Across these regimes, DACSI warrants separate evaluation because it uses a command-free metadata/provenance/policy surface, follows a RAG-specific source-authority path, and responds to source/channel separation. The source-authority probe is behavioral attribution evidence, not proof of an internal mechanism.

Promoting Shared Energy Storage Aggregation among High Price-Tolerance Prosumer: An Incentive Deposit and Withdrawal Service

Many residential prosumers exhibit a high price-tolerance for household electricity bills and a low response to price incentives. This is because the household electricity bills are not inherently high, and the potential for saving on electricity bills through participation in conventional Shared Energy Storage (SES) is limited, which diminishes their motivation to actively engage in SES. Additionally, existing SES models often require prosumers to take additional actions, such as optimizing rental capacity and bidding prices, which happen to be capabilities that typical household prosumers do not possess. To incentivize these high price-tolerance residential prosumers to participate in SES, a novel SES aggregation framework is proposed, which does not require prosumers to take additional actions and allows them to maintain existing energy storage patterns. Compared to conventional long-term operation of SES, the proposed framework introduces an additional short-term construction step during which the energy service provider (ESP) acquires control of the energy storage systems (ESS) and offers electricity deposit and withdrawal services (DWS) with dynamic coefficients, enabling prosumers to withdraw more electricity than they deposit without additional actions. Additionally, a matching mechanism is proposed to align prosumers' electricity consumption behaviors with ESP's optimization strategies. Finally, the dynamic coefficients in DWS and trading strategies are optimized by an improved deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithm. Case studies are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed SES aggregation framework with DWS and the matching mechanism.

Transverse Bending Mimicry of Longitudinal Piezoelectricity

The origin of frequently observed ultrahigh electric-induced longitudinal strain, ranging from 1% to 26%, remains an open question. Recent evidence suggests that this phenomenon is linked to the bending deformation of samples, but the mechanisms driving this bending and the strong dependence of nominal strain on sample thickness have yet to be fully understood. Here, we demonstrate that the bending in piezoceramics can be induced by non-zero gradient of d31 acrcoss thickness direction. Our calculations show that in standard perovskite piezoceramics, such as KNbO3, a 0.69% concentration of oxygen vacancies results in a 6.3 pC/N change in d31 by inhibiting polarization rotation, which is sufficient to produce ultrahigh nominal strain in thin samples. The gradients of defect concentration, composition, and stress can all cause sufficient inhomogeneity in the distribution of d31, leading to the bending effect. We propose several approaches to distinguish true electric-induced strain from bending-induced effects. Our work provides clarity on the origin of nominal ultrahigh electricinduced strain and offers valuable insights for advancing piezoelectric materials.
