Universal Battery Degradation Forecasting Driven by Foundation Model Across Diverse Chemistries and Conditions

Accurate forecasting of battery capacity fade is essential for the safety, reliability, and long-term efficiency of energy storage systems. However, the strong heterogeneity across cell chemistries, form factors, and operating conditions makes it difficult to build a single model that generalizes beyond its training domain. This work proposes a unified capacity forecasting framework that maintains robust performance across diverse chemistries and usage scenarios. We curate 20 public aging datasets into a large-scale corpus covering 1,704 cells and 3,961,195 charge-discharge cycle segments, spanning temperatures from $-5\,^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ to $45\,^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$, multiple C-rates, and application-oriented profiles such as fast charging and partial cycling. On this corpus, we adopt a Time-Series Foundation Model (TSFM) backbone and apply parameter-efficient Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) together with physics-guided contrastive representation learning to capture shared degradation patterns. Experiments on both seen and deliberately held-out unseen datasets show that a single unified model achieves competitive or superior accuracy compared with strong per-dataset baselines, while retaining stable performance on chemistries, capacity scales, and operating conditions excluded from training. These results demonstrate the potential of TSFM-based architectures as a scalable and transferable solution for capacity degradation forecasting in real battery management systems.

Multiplication on uniform $λ$-Cantor sets

Let $C$ be the middle-third Cantor set. Define $C*C=\{x*y:x,y\in C\}$, where $*=+,-,\cdot,÷$ (when $*=÷$, we assume $y\neq0$). Steinhaus \cite{HS} proved in 1917 that \[ C-C=[-1,1], C+C=[0,2]. \] In 2019, Athreya, Reznick and Tyson \cite{Tyson} proved that \[ C÷C=\bigcup_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\left[ 3^{-n}\dfrac{2}{3},3^{-n}\dfrac {3}{2}\right] . \] In this paper, we give a description of the topological structure and Lebesgue measure of $C\cdot C$. We indeed obtain corresponding results on the uniform $λ$-Cantor sets.

Multiple codings for self-similar sets with overlaps

In this paper we consider a general class $\mathcal E$ of self-similar sets with complete overlaps. Given a self-similar iterated function system $Φ=(E, \{f_i\}_{i=1}^m)\in\mathcal E$ on the real line, for each point $x\in E$ we can find a sequence $(i_k)=i_1i_2\ldots\in\{1,\ldots,m\}^\mathbb N$, called a coding of $x$, such that $$ x=\lim_{n\to\infty}f_{i_1}\circ f_{i_{2}}\circ\cdots\circ f_{i_n}(0). $$ For $k=1,2,\ldots, \aleph_0$ or $2^{\aleph_0}$ we investigate the subset $\mathcal U_k(Φ)$ which consists of all $x\in E$ having precisely $k$ different codings. Among several equivalent characterizations we show that $\mathcal U_1(Φ)$ is closed if and only if $\mathcal U_{\aleph_0}(Φ)$ is an empty set. Furthermore, we give explicit formulae for the Hausdorff dimension of $\mathcal U_k(Φ)$, and show that the corresponding Hausdorff measure of $\mathcal U_k(Φ)$ is always infinite for any $k\ge 2$. Finally, we explicitly calculate the local dimension of the self-similar measure at each point in $\mathcal U_k(Φ)$ and ${U_{\aleph_0}(Φ)}$.

On arithmetic progressions in self-similar sets

Given a sequence $\{b_{i}\}_{i=1}^{n}$ and a ratio $λ\in (0,1),$ let $E=\cup_{i=1}^n(λE+b_i)$ be a homogeneous self-similar set. In this paper, we study the existence and maximal length of arithmetic progressions in $E$. Our main idea is from the multiple $β$-expansions.

Interiors of continuous images of the middle-third Cantor set

Let $C$ be the middle-third Cantor set, and $f$ a continuous function defined on an open set $U\subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$. Denote the image \begin{equation*} f_{U}(C,C)=\{f(x,y):(x,y)\in (C\times C)\cap U\}. \end{equation*} If $\partial _{x}f$, $\partial _{y}f$ are continuous on $U,$ and there is a point $(x_{0},y_{0})\in (C\times C)\cap U$ such that \begin{equation*} 1<\left\vert \frac{\partial _{x}f|_{(x_{0},y_{0})}}{\partial _{y}f|_{(x_{0},y_{0})}}\right\vert <3\text{ or }1<\left\vert \frac{\partial _{y}f|_{(x_{0},y_{0})}}{\partial _{x}f|_{(x_{0},y_{0})}}\right\vert <3, \end{equation*} then $f_{U}(C,C)$ has a non-empty interior. As a consequence, if \begin{equation*} f(x,y)=x^{α}y^{β}(αβ\neq 0),\text{ }x^{α}\pm y^{α}(α\neq 0)\text{ or }\sin (x)\cos (y), \end{equation*} then $f_{U}(C,C)$ contains a non-empty interior.

Arithmetic representations of real numbers in terms of self-similar sets

Suppose $n\geq 2$ and $\mathcal{A}_{i}\subset \{0,1,\cdots ,(n-1)\}$ for $ i=1,\cdots ,l,$ let $K_{i}=\bigcup\nolimits_{a\in \mathcal{A}_{i}}n^{-1}(K_{i}+a)$ be self-similar sets contained in $[0,1].$ Given $ m_{1},\cdots ,m_{l}\in \mathbb{Z}$ with $\prod\nolimits_{i}m_{i}\neq 0,$ we let \begin{equation*} S_{x}=\left\{ \mathbf{(}y_{1},\cdots ,y_{l}\mathbf{)}:m_{1}y_{1}+\cdots +m_{l}y_{l}=x\text{ with }y_{i}\in K_{i}\text{ }\forall i\right\} . \end{equation*} In this paper, we analyze the Hausdorff dimension and Hausdorff measure of the following set \begin{equation*} U_{r}=\{x:\mathbf{Card}(S_{x})=r\}, \end{equation*} where $\mathbf{Card}(S_{x})$ denotes the cardinality of $S_{x}$, and $r\in \mathbb{N}^{+}$. We prove under the so-called covering condition that the Hausdorff dimension of $U_{1}$ can be calculated in terms of some matrix. Moreover, if $r\geq 2$, we also give some sufficient conditions such that the Hausdorff dimension of $U_{r}$ takes only finite values, and these values can be calculated explicitly. Furthermore, we come up with some sufficient conditions such that the dimensional Hausdorff measure of $U_{r}$ is infinity. Various examples are provided. Our results can be viewed as the exceptional results for the classical slicing problem in geometric measure theory.

Lipschitz equivalence of self-similar sets with exact overlaps

In this paper, we study a class $\mathcal{A}(λ,n,m)$ of self-similar sets with $m$ exact overlaps generated by $n$ similitudes of the same ratio $ λ$. We obtain a necessary condition for a self-similar set in $\mathcal{A}(λ,n,m)$ to be Lipschitz equivalent to a self-similar set satisfying the strong separation condition, i.e., there exists an integer $ k\geq 2$ such that $x^{2k}-mx^{k}+n$ is reducible, in particular, $m$ belongs to $\{a^{i}:a\in \mathbb{N}$ with $i\geq 2\}.$

Multiplication on self-similar sets with overlaps

Let $A,B\subset\mathbb{R}$. Define $$A\cdot B=\{x\cdot y:x\in A, y\in B\}.$$ In this paper, we consider the following class of self-similar sets with overlaps. Let $K$ be the attractor of the IFS $\{f_1(x)=λx, f_2(x)=λx+c-λ,f_3(x)=λx+1-λ\}$, where $f_1(I)\cap f_2(I)\neq \emptyset, (f_1(I)\cup f_2(I))\cap f_3(I)=\emptyset,$ and $I=[0,1]$ is the convex hull of $K$. The main result of this paper is $K\cdot K=[0,1]$ if and only if $(1-λ)^2\leq c$. Equivalently, we give a necessary and sufficient condition such that for any $u\in[0,1]$, $u=x\cdot y$, where $x,y\in K$.
