Spatially Indirect Exciton Condensation in Two-Dimensional Strongly Correlated Semimetals

Identifying materials hosting an excitonic insulator ground state has been one of the major pursuits in condensed matter physics in recent years. Promising candidates in transition metal chalcogenide compounds (TMC), including $1T-\mathrm{TiSe_2}$, $\mathrm{Ta_2Pd_3Te_5}$, and $\mathrm{Ta_2NiSe_5}$, share a crucial common characteristic: their low-energy physics is governed by electrons in $d-$ orbitals subject to strong on-site Coulomb interactions. In this work, we investigate spatially indirect exciton condensation in two-dimensional semimetals on triangular lattice. Using a combination of dynamical mean-field theory and the determinant quantum Monte Carlo method, we study two- and three-orbital Hubbard models incorporating strong on-site ($U$) and inter-orbital interactions ($V$). Our results demonstrate that on-site Hubbard $U$ can strongly suppress the condensation temperature $T_c$, an effect that is particularly pronounced at higher electron-hole pair densities. This behavior contrasts sharply with the case without on-site $U$, where $T_c$ grows with pair density at fixed $V$. Moreover, we uncover competition among multiple electron-hole pairing channels in the three-orbital model, which also acts to suppress $T_c$ of exciton condensation. An orbital-selective electron-hole pairing state is identified. These findings may help explain the large discrepancy between strong binding-energy and relative low transition temperature for indirect excitons in TMCs materials, offering important insights for understanding and engineering exciton condensation in materials with strongly correlated $d-$ shell electrons.

Multi-Domain Polarization for Enhancing the Physical Layer Security of MIMO Systems

A novel Physical Layer Security (PLS) framework is conceived for enhancing the security of the wireless communication systems by exploiting multi-domain polarization in Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems. We design a sophisticated key generation scheme based on multi-domain polarization, and the corresponding receivers. An in-depth analysis of the system's secrecy rate is provided, demonstrating the confidentiality of our approach in the presence of eavesdroppers having strong computational capabilities. More explicitly, our simulation results and theoretical analysis corroborate the advantages of the proposed scheme in terms of its bit error rate (BER), block error rate (BLER), and maximum achievable secrecy rate. Our findings indicate that the innovative PLS framework effectively enhances the security and reliability of wireless communication systems. For instance, in a $4\times4$ MIMO setup, the proposed PLS strategy exhibits an improvement of $2$dB compared to conventional MIMO, systems at a BLER of $2\cdot 10^{-5}$ while the eavesdropper's BLER reaches $1$.

Model-based Automated Testing of JavaScript Web Applications via Longer Test Sequences

JavaScript has become one of the most widely used languages for Web development. However, it is challenging to ensure the correctness and reliability of Web applications written in JavaScript, due to their dynamic and event-driven features. A variety of dynamic analysis techniques for JavaScript Web applications have been proposed, but they are limited in either coverage or scalability. In this paper, we propose a model-based automated approach to achieve high code coverage in a reasonable amount of time via testing with longer event sequences. We implement our approach as the tool LJS, and perform extensive experiments on 21 publicly available benchmarks (18,559 lines of code in total). On average, LJS achieves 86.4\% line coverage in 10 minutes, which is 5.4\% higher than that of JSDep, a breadth-first search based automated testing tool enriched with partial order reduction. In particular, on large applications, the coverage of LJS is 11-18\% higher than that of JSDep. Our empirical finding supports that longer test sequences can achieve higher code coverage in JavsScript testing.

Communication Learning in Social Networks: Finite Population and the Rates

Following the Bayesian communication learning paradigm, we propose a finite population learning concept to capture the level of information aggregation in any given network, where agents are allowed to communicate with neighbors repeatedly before making a single decision. This concept helps determine the occurrence of effective information aggregation in a finite network and reveals explicit interplays among parameters. It also enables meaningful comparative statics regarding the effectiveness of information aggregation in networks. Moreover, it offers a solid foundation to address, with a new perfect learning concept, long run dynamics of learning behavior and the associated learning rates as population diverges. Our conditions for the occurrence of finite population learning and perfect learning in communication networks are very tractable and transparent.
