Nonadiabatic Holonomic Single-Qubit Gates in Non-Hermitian Systems

Holonomic quantum computation offers a promising route to robust quantum gates, but decoherence remains a central obstacle in realistic implementations. Here we develop a nonadiabatic holonomic scheme for a driven three-level system in the no-jump regime described by an effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. Within a biorthogonal framework, tailored complex pulses enforce exact closure of the computational-subspace evolution at the final time despite the underlying nonunitary dynamics, enabling arbitrary single-qubit holonomic gates without requiring cyclic evolution in its orthogonal complement. In contrast to existing non-Hermitian treatments, which either neglect the overall exponential prefactor or, in adiabatic settings, include dissipation only on the auxiliary excited level, our scheme incorporates decay and dephasing of all bare eigenstates directly into the pulse design, so that dissipation does not reduce the no-jump gate fidelity.

Odd cycles in symmetric Cayley graphs on prime cyclic groups

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $S\subseteq \Z_p$ be symmetric with $0\notin S$. Let $\Cay(\Z_p,S)$ be the undirected Cayley graph on $\Z_p$ in which $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x-y\in S$. For $1\le \ell\le (p-1)/2$, define \[ \ex_{\Cay}(C_{2\ell+1},\Z_p)=\max\{|S|: S=-S,\ 0\notin S,\ \Cay(\Z_p,S)\text{ contains no }C_{2\ell+1}\}. \] Confirming a conjecture of Cashman and Kelley, we prove that if $p=2\ell+1$, then $\ex_{\Cay}(C_{2\ell+1},\Z_p)=0$, while if $p>2\ell+1$, then \[ \ex_{\Cay}(C_{2\ell+1},\Z_p)=2\floor{\frac{p+2\ell+1}{2(2\ell+1)}}. \] The proof combines a sharp additive zero-sum odd-girth argument with weak odd pancyclicity to transfer the result from odd-girth exclusion to fixed odd-cycle exclusion. We also give a canonical extremal family, an exact extremality criterion in terms of odd zero-sum avoidance, and an example showing that extremizers need not be dilates of the canonical construction.

C^2GR: Coupled Comprehensive Generative Replay for a Continually Learnable Universal Segmentation Model

Universal segmentation models exhibit significant potential for diverse tasks involving different imaging modalities and segmentation objectives. Task-Incremental Learning provides a privacy-preserving approach to continually evolve a universal model on tasks from sequentially-arriving medical departments. However, training the model solely on the incoming task induces forgetting on past tasks, since consecutive tasks exhibit concurrent shifts in image appearance and segmentation objective. To address this problem, we propose a novel Coupled Comprehensive Generative Replay (C^2GR) framework that simultaneously synthesizes image-mask pairs of previous tasks to mitigate forgetting under concurrent appearance and objective shifts. This requires preserving image-mask correspondence for structure-realistic generation and bridging asynchronous optimization of the generator and segmentor for segmentation-oriented generation. Specifically, we propose a Bayesian Joint Diffusion (BJD) method that formulates the correspondence as conditional distributions optimized via conditional denoising. Furthermore, we develop a Relation-aware Unified Prompt Synchronization (RUPS) scheme to simultaneously modulate the generator and segmentor via a shared task-relation-aware prompt for synchronizing their optimization. Experiments on 20 tasks spanning diverse modalities and objectives demonstrate that C^2GR exhibits only a 2.44% drop in overall performance compared to joint training with all task data, effectively alleviating forgetting from the concurrent shifts. Our code will be made publicly available at https://github.com/mar-cry/C2GR.

A Spectral Theory of Normalized Corrected GNN Propagation

We develop a spectral theory for \emph{normalized corrected GNN propagation}. The object of study is the symmetric normalized adjacency with its degree-stationary component removed, matching the normalization used by standard GCN-style models while isolating the stationary direction most directly tied to oversmoothing. The central theoretical question is whether this corrected normalized operator preserves class-discriminative signal after many propagation layers. Our main result is a high-probability exact-recovery theorem for the binary Contextual Stochastic Block Model after \(k=O(\log n)\) propagation steps in the dense polylogarithmic regime \(p\ge C\log^B n/n\), for any fixed \(B>4\), under explicit graph-signal and feature-SNR conditions. We also establish a multi-class partial recovery theorem showing contraction toward class centers for most nodes. Synthetic and real node-classification experiments are included as empirical checks of the theory's predicted dependence on depth, graph signal, and feature noise.

BioMatrix: Towards a Comprehensive Biological Foundation Model Spanning the Modality Matrix of Sequences, Structures, and Language

We present BioMatrix, the first multimodal foundation model that natively integrates sequences, structures, and natural language for both molecules and proteins within a single decoder-only architecture. Existing biological foundation models pursue native multimodality and broad entity coverage separately: those that fuse multiple modalities under a shared objective remain confined to a single entity type, while those spanning multiple entity types either omit explicit structural modeling or rely on adapter-based designs in which the model cannot natively generate the very modalities it can read. BioMatrix closes this gap by mapping molecular sequences (supporting both SMILES and SELFIES notations), molecular structures, protein sequences, protein structures, and natural language into a shared discrete token space through a unified tokenization scheme, so that all modalities are consumed and produced uniformly under a single next-token prediction objective -- without external encoders, projection adapters, or modality-specific output heads. Built upon the Qwen3 language model (1.7B and 4B), BioMatrix is continually pretrained on 304.4 billion tokens spanning general and domain-specific text, sequence and structure views of molecules and proteins, and cross-modal corpora that interleave biomolecular entities with scientific text and link distinct entities through molecule-protein and protein-protein interaction data. After tuning on a comprehensive suite of downstream applications covering 80 tasks across 6 categories -- encompassing single-entity and multi-entity understanding and generation tasks across and within modalities -- BioMatrix achieves state-of-the-art or competitive performance on 77 out of 80 tasks, demonstrating that a single, natively multimodal generalist model can effectively match or surpass specialized approaches across a wide range of biological tasks.

A DVDrive Approach for doScenes Instructed Driving Challenge

Instruction-conditioned trajectory prediction is an emerging problem in autonomous driving, where a model predicts the future ego trajectory not only from visual scene context and historical motion, but also from a natural-language maneuver instruction. This paper presents our submission to the doScenes Instructed Driving Challenge, built upon OmniDrive, a vision-language-action driving agent with 3D perception, reasoning, and planning capabilities. We adapt OmniDrive to the doScenes setting by training it on instruction-annotated nuScenes scenes and generating a 6-second ego trajectory represented by 12 future waypoints. To improve multi-view visual grounding, we further introduce a DVPE-style divided-view perception module into the OmniDrive perception head. Instead of attending globally to all camera features, the proposed module groups query features and image tokens into divided local view spaces and performs visibility-aware cross-attention within each view. This design reduces irrelevant cross-view interference and helps the model better align language instructions with local driving-relevant visual evidence. The code is publicly available at: https://github.com/feel12348/doscenes-omnidrive.

Ising Supercriticality and Universal Magnetocalorics in Spiral Antiferromagnet Nd$_3$BWO$_9$

The celebrated analogy between the pressure-temperature phase diagram of a liquid-gas system and the field-temperature phase diagram of a ferromagnet has long been a cornerstone for understanding universality of phase transitions and critical phenomena. Here we extend this analogy to a highly frustrated antiferromagnet, the spiral Ising compound Nd$_3$BWO$_9$ with kagome layers. In its phase diagram, we identify a metamagnetic transition line with a critical endpoint (CEP) located at $μ_0H_{\mathrm{c}} \simeq 1.04$ T and $T_{\mathrm{c}} \simeq 0.3$ K. Above the CEP, an Ising supercritical regime emerges with crossover lines that follow a universal scaling law, as evidenced by the specific heat, magnetic susceptibility, and magnetocaloric measurements. Remarkably, we observe highly sensitive magnetic cooling near the emergent CEP, characterized by a divergent magnetic Grüneisen ratio $Γ_H \propto 1/t^{β+γ-1}$, with $β+ γ\simeq 1.563$ the sum of critical exponents of the 3D Ising universality class and $t \equiv (T-T_{\rm c})/T_{\rm c}$ the reduced temperature. Adiabatic demagnetization from 2 K and 4 T reaches a minimum temperature of 195 mK, via a self-cascading process that combines supercritical and topological cooling. Our findings open a new avenue for studying supercritical phenomena and magnetic refrigeration with the frustrated rare-earth compounds RE$_3$BWO$_9$ and, more broadly, in Ising-anisotropic antiferromagnets such as spin ices.

Beyond Artifacts: Towards Generalizable Synthetic Song Detection via Music-Intrinsic Features

The rapid advancement of AI music generators highlights the urgent need for reliable Synthetic Song Detection (SSD). Existing SSD methods often rely on low-level artifacts or fixed feature assumptions, struggling to capture generator-agnostic cues. To address this, we propose Sofia (Synthetic-song detection framework via music features), a flexible framework that models music-intrinsic attributes via feature-specific experts and an adaptive Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) module. By configuring Sofia with representative Vocal, Audio-effect, Global structure features, and their combinations, we present their individual and complementary contributions. To comprehensively evaluate our framework, we further construct MUSIC8K, a challenging benchmark featuring lastest emerging generators and realistic audio perturbations. Experiments show that Sofia learns generator-agnostic representations from music-intrinsic features, improving the F1 score by 18.5 points over the strongest baseline on MUSIC8K-O while maintaining strong robustness.

Encode Errors: Representational Retrieval of In-Context Demonstrations for Multilingual Grammatical Error Correction

Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) involves detecting and correcting the wrong usage of grammar. While large language models (LLMs) with in-context learning (ICL) capabilities have shown significant progress on various natural language processing (NLP) tasks, their few-shot performance on GEC remains suboptimal. This is mainly due to the challenge of retrieving suitable in-context demonstrations that capture error patterns instead of semantic similarity. In this paper, we demonstrate that LLMs can inherently capture information related to grammatical errors through their internal states. From these states, we extract the Grammatical Error Representation (GER), an informative and semantically neutral encoding of grammatical errors. Our novel GER-based retrieval method significantly boosts performance in ICL settings on multilingual GEC datasets, improving the precision of correction. For high-resource languages, our results on 8B-sized open-source models match those of closed-source models such as Deepseek2.5 and GPT-4o-mini. For low-resource languages, our $F_{0.5}$ scores surpass the baseline by up to a factor of 1.20. This method provides a more precise and resource-efficient solution for multilingual GEC, offering a promising direction for interpretable GEC research.

Towards Efficient Large Language Reasoning Models via Extreme-Ratio Chain-of-Thought Compression

Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning successfully enhances the reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs), yet it incurs substantial computational overhead for inference. Existing CoT compression methods often suffer from a critical loss of logical fidelity at high compression ratios, resulting in significant performance degradation. To achieve high-fidelity, fast reasoning, we propose a novel EXTreme-RAtio Chain-of-Thought Compression framework, termed Extra-CoT, which aggressively reduces the token budget while preserving answer accuracy. To generate reliable, high-fidelity supervision, we first train a dedicated semantically-preserved compressor on mathematical CoT data with fine-grained annotations. An LLM is then fine-tuned on these compressed pairs via a mixed-ratio supervised fine-tuning (SFT), teaching it to follow a spectrum of compression budgets and providing a stable initialization for reinforcement learning (RL). We further propose Constrained and Hierarchical Ratio Policy Optimization (CHRPO) to explicitly incentivize question-solving ability under lower budgets by a hierarchical reward. Experiments on three mathematical reasoning benchmarks show the superiority of Extra-CoT. For example, on MATH-500 using Qwen3-1.7B, Extra-CoT achieves over 73\% token reduction with an accuracy improvement of 0.6\%, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods. Our source codes have been released at https://github.com/Mwie1024/Extra-CoT.

When Smaller Wins: Dual-Stage Distillation and Pareto-Guided Compression of Liquid Neural Networks for Edge Battery Prognostics

Battery management systems increasingly require accurate battery health prognostics under strict on-device constraints. This paper presents DLNet, a practical framework with dual-stage distillation of liquid neural networks that turns a high-capacity model into compact and edge-deployable models for battery health prediction. DLNet first applies Euler discretization to reformulate liquid dynamics for embedded compatibility. It then performs dual-stage knowledge distillation to transfer the teacher model's temporal behavior and recover it after further compression. Pareto-guided selection under joint error-cost objectives retains student models that balance accuracy and efficiency. We evaluate DLNet on a widely used dataset and validate real-device feasibility on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense using int8 deployment. The final deployed student achieves a low error of 0.0066 when predicting battery health over the next 100 cycles, which is 15.4% lower than the teacher model. It reduces the model size from 616 kB to 94 kB with 84.7% reduction and takes 21 ms per inference on the device. These results support a practical smaller wins observation that a small model can match or exceed a large teacher for edge-based prognostics with proper supervision and selection. Beyond batteries, the DLNet framework can extend to other industrial analytics tasks with strict hardware constraints.

Cross-Modal Masked Compositional Concept Modeling for Enhancing Visio-Linguistic Compositionality

Contrastively trained vision-language models like CLIP, have made remarkable progress in learning joint image-text representations, but still face challenges in compositional understanding. They often exhibit a "bag-of-words" behavior--struggling to capture the object relations, attribute-object bindings, and word order dependencies. This limitation arises not only from the reliance on global, single-vector representations for optimization, but also from the insufficient exploitation and modeling of the rich compositional information inherently present in paired image text data. In this work, we propose MACCO (MAsked Compositional Concept MOdeling), a framework that masks compositional concepts in one modality and reconstructs them conditioned on the full contextual information from the other, enabling the model to capture and align cross-modal compositional structures more effectively. To facilitate this process, we introduce two auxiliary objectives that jointly align and regularize masked features both inter-modally and intra-modally. Extensive experiments on five compositional benchmarks, along with in-depth analyses, demonstrate that our approach not only significantly enhances compositionality in VLMs but also improves their ability to capture syntactic structure and linguistic information. Additionally, the improved compositionality also benefits text-to-image generation and multimodal large language model. Code is available at https://github.com/hiker-lw/MACCO.

ISAP-3D: Identity-Slot Aligned Part-Aware 3D Generation

Part-aware 3D generation aims to synthesize structured objects with semantically meaningful components, yet often suffers from structural ambiguity due to identity-layout entanglement. Existing methods either infer part identity and spatial layout implicitly, which can lead to unstable part allocation (e.g., slot swapping or part merging), or rely on strong layout conditions that are difficult to obtain in practice. We attribute this ambiguity to identity-slot permutation freedom: without explicit identity-slot alignment, the correspondence between semantic parts and generation slots is not identifiable during training, allowing multiple slot assignments to fit the same supervision and leading to inconsistent decomposition. Based on this insight, we argue that stable part-aware generation requires identity-aligned one-to-one slot modelling. We therefore propose an identity-slot aligned framework, ISAP-3D, which anchors each part with semantic identity tokens and performs identity-conditioned one-to-one layout prediction, followed by layout-conditioned geometry synthesis. Structured local-global conditioning maintains identity alignment across semantic, spatial, and geometric stages. We also construct a part-level dataset with a unified semantic protocol to enable learnable and consistent identity-slot alignment. Extensive experiments demonstrate improved structural stability, controllability, and robustness over state-of-the-art part-aware generation baselines.

LoMC: Localized Multidirectional Correction for Refusal Suppression in Routed Foundation Models

We study controlled post-training refusal suppression in routed MoE and hybrid-MoE foundation models, aiming to increase non-refusal target-response behavior while preserving general capability under a compact intervention footprint. Existing broad direction-based edits can perturb general-purpose computation, whereas support-only expert edits often lack sufficient capacity to correct heterogeneous refusal representations. To address this limitation, we introduce Localized Multidirectional Correction (LoMC), a support-gated intervention framework that follows a support-then-correction execution order: it first identifies a compact edit support, then aggregates prototype correction directions into layer-wise correction directions, and finally applies rank-one layer-wise correction only within the selected support. By using the edit support as a structural gating constraint, LoMC increases correction capacity without expanding the intervention scope. Experiments on text-only and multimodal safety benchmarks across four routed backbones show that LoMC substantially improves non-refusal target-response behavior while maintaining general capability under a compact intervention footprint.

RoCo-ACE: Rollout-Conditioned Online Distillation for Retention-Aware Knowledge Injection

Knowledge injection updates pretrained MLLMs with new factual or domain-specific knowledge, but fitting full authoritative answers can cause drift in non-updated behavior. Online distillation mitigates this drift by training on model-generated rollouts, yet uniform reference-conditioned distillation provides coarse supervision: it can under-emphasize reference-supported rollout tokens and supervise omitted facts only indirectly. We introduce RoCo-ACE, a rollout-conditioned online distillation objective for knowledge injection. RoCo uses same-rollout reference-free/reference-conditioned likelihood contrast to reallocate additional distillation weight to reference-supported rollout tokens, while ACE adds sparse reference-side anchored correction for authoritative anchors omitted from the rollout without full-answer imitation. Across three knowledge-injection settings, six retention benchmarks, multiple baselines, and multiple base models, RoCo-ACE achieves the best injected-knowledge accuracy among compared methods while keeping evaluated retention close to the base model.

LAFP: Preserving Latent Action Structure in Latent Policy Learning via Flow Matching

Learning high-quality latent actions from large-scale unlabeled videos, coupled with limited real-world interaction data for training an action decoder, has emerged as a promising paradigm for scalable latent policy learning. However, existing approaches typically rely on behavior cloning, which tends to collapse inherently multimodal action distributions into unimodal ones, thereby degrading the pretrained latent action structure. While flow matching provides a potential alternative, directly applying it leads to a misalignment between latent actions and physical actions during action decoder training, due to the stochastic nature of the learned policy. To address these, we propose Latent Action Flow Policy (LAFP), which leverages flow matching for latent policy learning and introduces an inference-time interpolation mechanism to mitigate stochasticity-induced misalignment. Experimental results demonstrate that LAFP consistently outperforms prior methods on downstream imitation learning tasks, achieving up to 10-15% improvement in success rate while incurring less than 1x additional inference overhead.

Prisma-World: Camera-Controllable Multi-Agent Video World Model

Video world models have made rapid progress in generating controllable visual experiences, but most of them still simulate the world from a single observer. Extending such models to multiple agents raises a central challenge: if each agent's future state is generated independently, overlapping views may instantiate different versions of the same scene, leading to inconsistent objects, layouts, and appearances across agents. Conventional camera conditioning controls individual trajectories, but it does not explicitly couple the generation of views that should agree under shared scene geometry. We introduce Prisma-World, a camera-controllable multi-agent world model that formulates multi-agent generation as a joint geometry-aware denoising process for cross-view consistency. Prisma-World processes all agent videos within one full-attention sequence, uses a multi-agent RoPE design to distinguish agent identities while preserving synchronized temporal coordinates, and injects relative camera geometry into attention to bias overlapping viewpoints toward shared scene evidence. To further strengthen multi-view consistency and enhance global spatial perception, we augment our framework with an overlap-decaying curriculum training paradigm alongside minimap-conditioned structural guidance. To facilitate the training and evaluation of multi-agent models, we introduce PrismaDataset, a large-scale UE5 dataset with panoramic acquisition across diverse scenes, composable multi-agent view groups with flexible agent counts and complex camera trajectories, and precise camera/action annotations for consistency training and evaluation. Experiments show that a single Prisma-World model can generate high-fidelity multi-agent videos with flexible agent numbers, camera controllability, improved cross-view consistency, and spatial grounding under minimap guidance.

Complete Trajectory Tracking for Polynomial Differential Variational Inequalities: A Moment-SOS Based Structure-Aware Approach

This paper investigates Polynomial Differential Variational Inequalities (PDVIs), a class of non-smooth dynamical systems in which an ordinary differential equation is coupled with a time-dependent variational inequality (VI) defined by polynomials. As a foundation for polynomial differential variational inequalities, we investigate the parametric polynomial variational inequality and establish that, under mild assumptions, its parameter space admits a stratification into finitely many disjoint semi-algebraic regions, each corresponding to a qualitatively distinct solution structure. Furthermore, we establish the existence of maximal regular solutions to the PDVI for almost every initial condition in the parametric feasible set, where each solution has finitely many switches and evolves according to continuous semi-algebraic selection laws between switching times. Leveraging the structured partition of the parameter space, in which region boundaries correspond to discontinuities in the solution map of the parametric VI, we propose the structure-aware SOS-PDVIRK4 algorithm to handle solution multiplicity and structural transitions. This method integrates a fourth-order Runge--Kutta integrator with the Moment--SOS hierarchy and features a novel hybrid strategy that is explicitly guided by the underlying parameter space geometry. The efficacy of our structure-aware framework is demonstrated through numerical experiments on a constrained cyber-physical control system. Our numerical experiments demonstrate that, from identical initial states but different initial controls, trajectories can diverge significantly, revealing the discontinuous structure of the solution map of the parametric polynomial VI. The experiments also include numerical convergence studies and highlight the potential of our algorithm to explore the long-term behavior of PDVI systems.
