Pressure-induced concurrent amorphization and superconductivity in topological material NbNiTe5

We have systematically studied the structural and electronic properties of a topological material NbNiTe5 under high pressure. The evolution of the normal state resistance shows a non-monotonic trend from 0.7 GPa to 5.1 GPa, in accordance with the second-order transition along the inter-layer direction observed in X-ray diffraction and Raman spectra. At around 10 GPa, the sample starts amorphization, which is concurrent with the emergence of superconductivity. Upon further compression, the structural disorder enhances and the superconducting transition becomes clearer, suggesting that the superconductivity is modulated by the degree of disorder in NbNiTe5 under high pressure. Within 45.7 GPa, the superconducting transition temperature (Tc) slowly rises from 0.6 K at 9.5 GPa to 1.4 K at 45.7 GPa. Our findings extend the family of transition metal chalcogenide superconductors and shed new light on understanding superconductivity in disordered systems.

Superconducting ternary compounds Li-X-B (X=Mo, W) within the mild pressure range: First-principles predictions

Among the superconducting hydrides under high pressure, a number of studies concentrate on the ternary compounds to explore unique superconductors, which are capable of reducing the stable pressure and maintain superconductivity. In this work, to verify our proposed strategy of ternary composition lines (TCLs) to explore ternary compounds, we combined the first-principles calculations and crystal structure predictions to study the ternary compounds Li-X-B (X=Mo, W) under high pressure. After calculations along five and four TCLs in Li-W-B and Li-Mo-B, respectively, five Li-W-B compounds and four Li-Mo-B compounds were predicted. The compositions of LiWB4, Li4MoB2 and LiMo2B2 could be thermodynamically stable under high pressure, and Li2WB6 is around 0.02 eV/atom above the convex hull at 0 GPa, which has potential for synthesizing. Both of the predicted Li2WB6 P6/mmm and Li2WB4 R-3m are superconducting and their Tc are around 11 K, which are similar to the Tc of WB2 P6/mmm around 100 GPa. An anomalous increase of Tc was found in Li4MoB2 C2/m upon compression. We carried out full ternary search (FTS) to evaluate the validity of the TCLs strategy in Li-W-B system at 0 GPa. Our results are helpful for understanding the phase diagram of Li-X-B (X=Mo, W) under high pressure and the introducing of Li atoms provide candidate structures to reduce the measured stable pressure from ~100 GPa in WB2 P6/mmm to 0 GPa. Meanwhile, we preliminary validate the strategy of TCLs in structure predictions and we expect to improve this strategy in the future, shedding light on the studies of ternary compounds.

JoyAI-Talker: Full-Duplex Speech Interactive Large Model Built for Empathetic Voice Agents

We present JoyAI-Talker, a full-duplex speech dialogue system that delivers robust foundation model capabilities while empowering empathetic interaction and voice agent intelligence. JoyAI-Talker adopts a modular Thinker-Talker architecture and further implements a unified speech-text joint training pipeline to mitigate the common "cognitive degradation" bottleneck, thereby largely preserving the model's core textual reasoning, STEM, and logical capabilities while extending them to speech-based interaction. For expressive speech synthesis, the Talker module employs a text-controllable generation paradigm that enables natural-language instructions to flexibly control vocal attributes and localized paralinguistic events, such as laughter and sighs, supporting more expressive and fine-grained speech responses. To enhance conversational empathy, we introduce the Persona-Adaptive Empathetic Response (PAER) framework. PAER employs a hierarchical cognitive pipeline to extract non-verbal speaker cues, such as gender, age, and emotional state, from raw input audio, incorporate them into the Thinker's CoT reasoning, and generate context-adaptive responses that align semantically appropriate text with fine-grained control over utterance-level expressiveness and localized paralinguistic events, including sighs, speaking rate, and volume. We further integrate Joy-Duplex, a state-driven, plug-and-play full-duplex framework that functions as an efficient gating engine for real-time turn control. Extensive evaluations show that JoyAI-Talker achieves highly competitive performance on foundational T2T and S2T benchmarks. In full-duplex evaluation, the system reaches a high response rate of 0.88 under user interruptions while maintaining an extremely low false-trigger rate under background speech, demonstrating its readiness for fluid and natural speech dialogue.

Astrolabe: Spherical-Map Guidance Across Diffusion Pipelines for Full-Body Capture from Unconstrained Images

Full-body capture from unconstrained photographs requires global correspondence across arbitrary views, poses, crops, and occlusions. Yet pose, geometry, and foundation features estimated in this setting are too unreliable for dense matching or appearance transfer, while diffusion rectifiers and optimization pipelines expose no common interface for consuming such uncertain correspondence. Our insight is that correspondence need not be locally accurate: its coarse viewpoint and body layout can still organize how a diffusion prior adapts and guides reconstruction. We introduce \emph{Astrolabe}, a host-portable adapter built on frozen viewpoint-guided spherical maps (SPH). A fixed bounded transform converts SPH into a spatial noise shift, which is matched during prior adaptation and reused during downstream denoising or score-distillation guidance in both pipeline categories. When a rectifier exposes a reference router, the same target/reference SPH additionally supplies coarse compatibility scores to select native appearance features; router-free optimization uses only the shared shift path. Astrolabe therefore follows one SPH--shift--adapt--guide process without dense warping or a learned control branch. Across Puzzle-IOI and 4D-Dress, it improves all reported image metrics in both hosts and all paired Puzzle-IOI geometry metrics; image gains extend to rear views, while 4D-Dress geometry remains stable overall.

On bricks of one-point extension algebras

Let $Λ=B[E]$ be the one-point extension algebra of $B$ by the extension module $E$. Using the standard triple description of $Λ$-modules, we characterize mixed bricks through an injectivity condition and a scalar-stabilizer condition. Under the assumption that $B$ is $E$-visible finite, we interpret mixed bricks as orbits in Grassmannians and derive a necessary and sufficient criterion for the brick-finiteness of $Λ$.

A complete classification of $τ$-tilting finite Schur algebras

In this paper, we determine the $τ$-tilting finiteness for some blocks of classical Schur algebras. Combining with the results in arXiv:2010.05206, we get a complete classification of $τ$-tilting finite Schur algebras. We also give a complete classification of $τ$-tilting finite blocks of the Schur algebra $S(2,r)$. As an application, we obtain a classification of strictly wild Schur algebras, except for three remaining open cases.

AWARE-FX: An Auditable Knowledge-Guided AI System for Measuring Corporate Foreign-Exchange Hedging Disclosure

Corporate annual reports contain weakly structured evidence about foreign-exchange risk management, derivative use, natural hedging, and explicit non-use. This study develops AWARE-FX, an auditable AI/NLP decision-support system that converts report text into traceable firm-year hedging-disclosure measures. The system combines a professional-source lexicon, negation and accounting-status logic, channel-specific financial encoders, exact evidence gates, conservative aggregation, and an audit ledger. Across 24,909 Hong Kong firm-years from 2008-2025, it retrieves and scores 543,527 snippets. Reliability is evaluated through ablations, a stratified 300-snippet human audit, three-seed FinBERT-ModernBERT comparisons, strict 2023-2025 temporal tests, probability calibration, selective prediction, and fixed-prompt generative-model benchmarks. FinBERT has the higher mean F1 in seven of eight encoder task-split comparisons; its temporal F1 ranges from 0.702 to 0.872. Abstaining on the 20% least-confident temporal observations raises retained-sample F1 by 0.050-0.077. Deterministic Qwen3-8B performs strongly on commodity and negation evidence but poorly on foreign-debt and accounting-context labels, showing that a general-purpose LLM does not uniformly replace domain constraints. The strict FX score is negatively associated with linked baseline and stress-period FX exposure, whereas the generic broad score is not. These associations provide external construct validation, not causal estimates of hedging effectiveness. AWARE-FX contributes a tested decision-support architecture in which retrieval, status logic, classification, uncertainty handling, aggregation, and external validation remain separately auditable.

CLVisc Agent for autonomous relativistic hydrodynamics studies

We enable large language model (LLM) agents to autonomously perform end-to-end hydrodynamic simulations of the quark-gluon plasma evolution and calculation of final hadron spectra in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We design a meta skill that allows an agent to explore a project's source code, craft a specialized skill, and iteratively refine it. Applying this meta skill to the (3+1)D viscous hydrodynamic code CLVisc, the agent builds a CLVisc skill encoding its operational knowledge and then independently executes full scientific workflows: designing parameter scans, running simulations, comparing ensemble results, and producing publication-ready figures. Crucially, the agent draws on literature-informed heavy-ion physics to select physically meaningful observables and interpret outcomes without explicit instruction. We demonstrate the pipeline in two scenarios: temperature-dependent shear viscosity over entropy density $η/s$, and nuclear-structure effects in O+O collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 5.36$~TeV using four \textit{ab initio} descriptions of $^{16}$O. In both, the agent plans, executes, and analyzes autonomously, devising new initial-state observables to explain final observations and extract qualitative knowledge. The meta skill is agnostic to code versions and Monte Carlo generators, promising future multi-agent systems in high-energy nuclear physics.

BioVLN: A Simulation Platform for Visual Language Navigation in Biomedical Laboratories

Biomedical laboratory robots must navigate to instruments before performing experimental procedures. Existing embodied navigation platforms are designed for household environments and treat a target as an object center or an arbitrary nearby position. This representation is inadequate for laboratory instruments, which must be approached from their operating side while maintaining safe clearance from surrounding equipment. We introduce BioVLN, a simulation platform for developing and evaluating visual-language navigation agents in biomedical laboratories. BioVLN represents each instrument with three regions: its physical body, a surrounding clearance region, and an operation area in front of the usable side. This model is applied consistently to scene generation, target placement, navigation evaluation, and safety analysis, so success depends on reaching a position from which the instrument can be accessed. BioVLN supports procedural scene generation and manually designed environments, producing 47 scenes and 1667 episodes. Standardized navigation and reinforcement-learning interfaces enable trajectory collection and policy training. Experiments show that geometric exploration reaches 74.4--87.5% success, while sampling multiple valid positions in the operation area improves success to 83.3--92.5% and reduces unsafe proximity.

Accelerating discovery of infrared nonlinear optical materials with large shift current via high-throughput screening

Discovering nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with strong shift current response, particularly in the infrared (IR) regime, is essential for next-generation optoelectronics yet remains highly challenging in both experiments and theory, which still largely relies on case by case studies. Here, we employ a high-throughput screening strategy, applying a multi-step filter to the Materials Project database (>154,000 materials), which yielded 2,519 candidate materials for detailed first-principle evaluation. From these calculations, we identify 32 NLO materials with strong shift current response ($σ$ > 100 $μA/V^2$). Our work reveals that layered structures with $C_{3v}$ symmetry and heavy $p$-block elements (e.g. Te, Sb) exhibit apparent superiority in enhancing shift current. More importantly, 9 of these compounds show shift current response peaks in the IR region, with the strongest reaching 616 $μA/V^2$, holding significant application potential in fields such as IR photodetection, sensing, and energy harvesting. Beyond identifying promising candidates, this work establishes a comprehensive and high-quality first-principles dataset for NLO response, providing a solid foundation for future AI-driven screening and accelerated discovery of high-performance NLO materials, as demonstrated by a prototype machine-learning application.

LaDA-Band: Language Diffusion Models for Vocal-to-Accompaniment Generation

Vocal-to-accompaniment (V2A) generation, which aims to transform a raw vocal recording into a fully arranged accompaniment, inherently requires jointly addressing an accompaniment trilemma: preserving acoustic authenticity, maintaining global coherence with the vocal track, and producing dynamic orchestration across a full song. Existing open-source approaches typically make compromises among these goals. Continuous-latent generation models can capture long musical spans but often struggle to preserve fine-grained acoustic detail. In contrast, discrete autoregressive models retain local fidelity but suffer from unidirectional generation and error accumulation in extended contexts. We present LaDA-Band, an end-to-end framework that introduces Discrete Masked Diffusion to the V2A task. Our approach formulates V2A generation as Discrete Masked Diffusion, i.e., a global, non-autoregressive denoising formulation that combines the representational advantages of discrete audio codec tokens with full-sequence bidirectional context modeling. This design improves long-range structural consistency and temporal synchronization while preserving crisp acoustic details. Built on this formulation, LaDA-Band further introduces a dual-track prefix-conditioning architecture, an auxiliary replaced-token detection objective for weakly anchored accompaniment regions, and a two-stage progressive curriculum to scale Discrete Masked Diffusion to full-song vocal-to-accompaniment generation. Extensive experiments on both academic and real-world benchmarks show that LaDA-Band consistently improves acoustic authenticity, global coherence, and dynamic orchestration over existing baselines, while maintaining strong performance even without auxiliary reference audio. Codes and audio samples are available at https://github.com/Duoluoluos/TME-LaDA-Band .

Texture++: Elevating 3D Asset Texture Resolution with a Region-Aware Diffusion Model

Numerous 3D assets are discarded due to low texture resolution, while current super-resolution models ignore texture maps and focus on natural images. An efficient and generalizable texture super-resolution model can revitalize a large corpus of aging yet valuable assets across industries such as film and video games. We present Texture++, a novel framework for texture super-resolution, which enhances the low-resolution textures of assets to produce high-resolution, high-quality results. Specifically, we reformulate the task of super-resolution in UV space into performing it across multiple rendered views and merging the outputs. Firstly, to achieve more complete and continuous textures in the view space, we propose an adaptive view selection strategy to integrate textures dispersed across UV texture patches. Furthermore, we introduce a quadtree-based texture region organization method for combining super-resolved textures from different viewpoints, providing masks to distinguish regions that require improvement. Finally, we design a diffusion-based super-resolution model that enhances the texture resolution for specified masked regions, seamlessly integrating with surrounding regions. Through comprehensive evaluations, we demonstrate that our approach yields textures with substantially improved detail and coherence over existing methods.

High-accuracy ultrasonic positioning of calibration sources in the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory

Precise source positioning is essential for detector calibration in large liquid scintillator detectors such as JUNO, particularly in regions where purely mechanical control is insufficient. An ultrasonic positioning system has been developed to reconstruct the three-dimensional coordinates of a calibration source without interfering with photon collection or contaminating the liquid scintillator. The method combines a sound-speed modeling based on dedicated laboratory measurements and in-detector temperature profiles, waveform-based arrival-time reconstruction, and an in-situ calibration of the effective receiver geometry using central-axis deployments. With six active receivers, central-axis positioning yields a mean error of 1.23 cm relative to the known deployment reference. For off-axis operation in the Cable Loop System calibration plane, a detector-realistic simulation that includes timing resolution, sound-speed variation, and receiver-coordinate smearing predicts a positioning uncertainty of 2.40 cm. These results demonstrate that ultrasonic positioning can provide centimetre-level source accuracy for large liquid scintillator detectors and can support off-axis calibration in JUNO-like experiments.

Pipette: An Embodied Simulation Platform, Benchmark, and Data-Efficient Augmentation Framework for Wet-Lab Robotics

Wet-lab robots can improve the reproducibility, throughput, and safety of biomedical experiments, but scaling their learning requires customizable simulators for safe and reproducible task generation, open editable laboratory assets, and efficient pipelines that turn limited demonstrations into usable training data. We present Pipette, an embodied simulation platform, benchmark, and data-efficient augmentation framework for wet-lab robot learning. Pipette provides over 100 open-source and re-editable wet-lab assets through an extensible asset-building pipeline with built-in Tencent Hunyuan support for text- and image-conditioned 3D asset generation, and supports three robotic-arm embodiments through a unified simulation interface for task construction, data collection, augmentation, and evaluation. A key component of Pipette is its simulation-based data augmentation pipeline, which replays human demonstrations in simulation, applies lighting, camera, speed, and action perturbations, and filters generated episodes with automatic task success checks, rapidly expanding usable training data from limited manual demonstrations. We further introduce a 12-task wet-lab embodied benchmark covering sample handling, culture-ware manipulation, device operation, and precision placement. With only 30 demonstrations per task, ACT achieves 60.3% average success rate, while simulation augmentation improves SmolVLA from 40.4% to 71.8% and pi0 from 37.3% to 44.1%, validating the effectiveness of Pipette for data-efficient VLA training and evaluation. Pipette also supports natural-language-driven scene construction and task registration, lowering the barrier for non-expert users to define new wet-lab robotic tasks

Metasurface Antenna-Enabled LEO Satellite Constellation Communications: Design and Optimization

Next-generation low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations face critical bottlenecks in spectral efficiency and onboard hardware complexity. To overcome these limitations, this paper introduces a novel architecture enabled by metasurface antennas (MAs) at the LEO satellites. In particular, MAs are metasurface-integrated feed antennas that perform high-precision beamforming directly in the wave domain, thereby effectively mitigating multi-user interference. Based on such an antenna architecture, a weighted sum rate (WSR) maximization problem is formulated by jointly optimizing the scheduling of feed antennas to terrestrial users (TUs) and the passive beamforming of the metasurface for system performance enhancement. To address this mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) challenge, an alternating optimization (AO)-based joint scheduling and beamforming algorithm is proposed. On the one hand, the proposed algorithm incorporates a polynomial-time minimum-cost maximum-flow (MCMF) method, which is dedicated to the optimal scheduling of feed antennas and TUs. On the other hand, it adopts a weighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) method integrated with semidefinite relaxation (SDR) technique, which is tailored for metasurface beamforming design. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for MA-enabled LEO satellite constellation communications.

Robust Design of Integrated Sensing and Communication in LEO Satellite Systems

With the growing demand for satellite sensing and communication, the limited wireless resources are difficult to support multiple satellite systems. Therefore, it is desired to investigate integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) in low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite systems to enable multi-functionality within a single satellite, thereby saving both spectrum and orbital resources. In this paper, a framework for ISAC in LEO satellite systems is established, where a satellite can simultaneously sense multiple targets and serve multiple communication users (CUs) over the same spectrum. Considering the limited onboard energy of satellite, a novel robust beamforming design algorithm is developed with the goal of minimizing total transmit power while satisfying the mean squared error (MSE) requirements for sensing and signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) requirements for communication in presence of channel phase uncertainty which exacerbates the cross-functional interference. According to theoretical analysis, the proposed algorithm for ISAC in LEO satellite systems is effective. Moreover, extensive simulations confirm the superiority of the proposed algorithm over baselines.

Generalized skew-gradient embedding for thermodynamically consistent systems

The skew-gradient embedding (SGE) framework~\cite{GuWangSGE2025} reformulates a thermodynamically consistent system as a generalized gradient flow by embedding its zero-energy contribution in a skew-symmetric operator. In a time-discrete scheme, the profiles defining this operator may be evaluated at previous time levels. The resulting operator remains skew-symmetric, so its contribution to the discrete energy balance vanishes; this explicit treatment often decouples multiphysics systems. We show that this operator is not unique: the admissible gauges form an affine space, and we call the resulting family generalized skew-gradient embeddings (GSGE). For any positive definite metric, least squares selects a unique minimum-Hilbert--Schmidt gauge, and the native metric recovers SGE. This construction also gives regularized approximations, corrections of non-neutral residuals, and gauges that preserve prescribed invariants. For rank-two gauges, we use a necessary and sufficient Jacobi criterion. Applying this criterion to a compatible MAC discretization of the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations gives a finite-dimensional rank-two Poisson--GENERIC formulation at the semi-discrete level; the implicit midpoint rule preserves this rank-two GENERIC structure at the fully discrete level and satisfies the exact discrete energy law. For the Cahn--Hilliard--Navier--Stokes system, the regularized GSGE--BDF2 scheme preserves mass, dissipates the discrete energy unconditionally, and admits a decoupled implementation.
