CA3D: Computing Accessibility-Aware Cooperative 3D Deployment of Multiple UAVs

This letter investigates computing-accessibility-aware cooperative 3D deployment of multiple UAVs for task completion enhancement, termed CA3D. We first provide a theoretical analysis showing that computing accessibility is the key mechanism linking UAV deployment to delay-constrained task completion, and that UAV inter-spacing creates a fundamental tradeoff between computing-resource accessibility and task completion. We then develop a cooperative 3D deployment design that jointly balances accessible computing capacity, task completion probability, and redundant UAV overlap. Simulation results under heterogeneous computing node capacities show that CA3D consistently outperforms Random, Fixed, and Greedy deployment baselines under both hotspot and random ground user (GU) distributions. Under the hotspot GU distribution, CA3D achieves nearly full task completion, improving the task completion probability by about 3.3x over Random deployment when the number of UAVs is 8. Under a more challenging random GU distribution, CA3D still achieves about 35% higher task completion probability than the best baseline when the number of UAVs is 12. These results demonstrate that computing-accessibility-aware cooperative 3D deployment improves not only task completion but also robustness to GU distribution changes.

Field-induced asymmetric band flattening and ideal quantum geometry in rhombohedral graphene

Rhombohedral graphene exhibits an exceptionally diverse array of correlated phases that depend sensitively on the displacement field. Compiling reported phases into a unified phase diagram reveals a pronounced field-dependent electron-hole asymmetry: correlated states on the hole-doped side emerge at small displacement fields, whereas the fractional quantum anomalous Hall effect (FQAHE) is observed exclusively on the electron-doped side under large displacement fields. This stark asymmetry highlights the need to understand how flat bands evolve with displacement fields. Here, we directly visualize the field-induced electron-hole asymmetric band flattening in rhombohedral pentalayer graphene (R5G) using nanospot angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy with electrostatic gating. Beyond gap opening and spectral weight redistribution indicative of layer polarization, the gating field drives a strongly asymmetric modification of the flat bands: the flat valence band (FVB) evolves into an M-shaped dispersion at high field, whereas the flat conduction band (FCB) progressively flattens with increasing field. Comparison with calculations identifies critical parameters governing the band curvature of R5G, from which the resulting finite Berry curvature and near-ideal quantum geometry support the emergence of topological phases under electron doping at large fields. These results establish a direct link between the asymmetric phase diagram, band structure evolution, and quantum geometry, providing a microscopic framework for understanding correlated and topological phases in rhombohedral graphene.

Diffusion-based Evolutionary Optimization for 3D Multi-Objective Molecular Generation

Optimizing conflicting molecular properties while strictly adhering to complex 3D structural constraints constitutes a challenging Constrained Multi-Objective Optimization Problem (CMOP). Traditional Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) destroy chemical valency in 3D space, whereas 3D diffusion models act as rigid generators requiring costly retraining for novel objectives. To bridge this gap, we propose a progressive algorithmic suite. First, we introduce the Evolutionary-Guided Diffusion (EGD) operator, which executes crossover and mutation at an optimally calibrated noise level, leveraging a pre-trained denoising network to project chimeric states back onto the valid chemical manifold. Second, to combat the severe loss of molecular structural diversity inherent in traditional EMO frameworks, we design a Structure-Aware Environmental Selection (SAES) mechanism that explicitly enforces structural distinctiveness. Finally, synergizing EGD and SAES, we develop the Diffusion-based Evolutionary Molecular Optimization (DEMO) framework for CMOPs. To safely navigate disjoint feasible regions, DEMO employs a tri-population architecture with distinct goals: exploring novel chemical scaffolds, refining partially assembled intermediates, and fine-tuning perfectly feasible elite molecules. Extensive experiments across single-property targeting, unconstrained MOPs, multi-fragment CMOPs, and 3D protein-ligand docking demonstrate that our method comprehensively outperforms state-of-the-art baselines and traditional EMO frameworks. Operating entirely zero-shot, this suite consistently discovers highly diverse, chemically valid Pareto frontiers.

Linear convergence of Gearhart-Koshy accelerated Kaczmarz methods for tensor linear systems

The generalized Gearhart-Koshy acceleration is a recent exact affine search technique designed for the method of cyclic projections onto hyperplanes, i.e., the Kaczmarz method. However, its convergence properties, particularly the linear convergence rate, have not been thoroughly established. In this paper, we systematically establish the linear convergence of the generalized Gearhart-Koshy accelerated Kaczmarz method for tensor linear systems, proving that it converges linearly to the unique least-norm solution. Our analysis is general and applies to several popular Kaczmarz variants, including incremental, shuffle-once, and random-reshuffling schemes, and demonstrates that this acceleration approach yields a better convergence upper bound compared to the plain Kaczmarz method. We also propose an efficient Gram-Schmidt-based implementation that computes the next iterate in linear time. Building on this implementation, we establish a connection between this acceleration framework and Arnoldi-type Krylov subspace methods, further highlighting its efficiency and potential. Our theoretical results are supported by numerical experiments.

Ranking Constraints via Topological Dual-Directional Search in Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization

Existing evolutionary algorithms for Constrained Multi-objective Optimization Problems (CMOPs) typically treat all constraints uniformly, overlooking their distinct geometric relationships with the true Constrained Pareto Front (CPF). In reality, constraints play different roles: some directly shape the final CPF, some create infeasible obstacles, while others are irrelevant. To exploit this insight, we propose a novel algorithm named RCCMO, which sequentially performs unconstrained exploration, single-constraint exploitation, and full-constraint refinement. The core innovation of RCCMO lies in a constraint prioritization method derived from these geometric insights, seamlessly coupled with a unique dual-directional search mechanism. Specifically, RCCMO first prioritizes constraints that constitute the final CPF, approaching them from the evolutionary direction (optimizing objectives) to locate the CPF directly shaped by single-constraint boundaries. Subsequently, for constraints that merely hinder the population's progress, RCCMO searches from the anti-evolutionary direction (targeting the infeasible boundaries where hindering constraints intersect with the CPF) to effectively discover how these constraints obstruct and form the final CPF. Meanwhile, irrelevant constraints are intentionally bypassed. Furthermore, a series of specialized mechanisms are proposed to accelerate the algorithm's execution, reduce heuristic misjudgments, and dynamically adjust search directions in real time. Extensive experiments on 5 benchmark test suites and 29 real-world CMOPs demonstrate that RCCMO significantly outperforms seven state-of-the-art algorithms.

MARS: toward more efficient multi-agent collaboration for LLM reasoning

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved impressive results in natural language understanding, yet their reasoning capabilities remain limited when operating as single agents. Multi-Agent Debate (MAD) has been proposed to address this limitation by enabling collaborative reasoning among multiple models in a round-table debate manner. While effective, MAD introduces substantial computational overhead due to the number of agents involved and the frequent communication required. In this paper, we propose MARS (Multi-Agent Review System), a role-based collaboration framework inspired by the review process. In MARS, an author agent generates an initial solution, reviewer agents provide decisions and comments independently, and a meta-reviewer integrates the feedback to make the final decision and guide further revision. This design enhances reasoning quality while avoiding costly reviewer-to-reviewer interactions, thereby controlling token consumption and inference time. We compared MARS with both MAD and other state-of-the-art reasoning strategies across multiple benchmarks. Extensive experiments with different LLMs show that MARS matches the accuracy of MAD while reducing both token usage and inference time by approximately 50\%.

Experimental Study of Bremsstrahlung Gamma Ray Emission and Short-Range Correlations in $^{124}$Sn+$^{124}$Sn Collisions at 25 MeV/u

Short-range correlation (SRC) in nuclei refers to nucleons forming temporally correlated pairs in close proximity, giving rise to the high momentum of the nucleons beyond the Fermi surface. It has been reported that bremsstrahlung $γ$ production from neutron-proton process in heavy-ion reactions provides a potential probe to the SRC abundance in nuclei. In this paper, we present in detail the precision measurement of bremsstrahlung $γ$-rays in $\rm ^{124}Sn$+$\rm ^{124}Sn$ reactions at 25 MeV/u using the Compact Spectrometer for Heavy IoN Experiment (CSHINE). A comprehensive experimental and analysis framework is established to ensure the reliability and robustness of the extracted results. Background contributions are evaluated and subtracted using independent methods, and the consistency of the analysis is systematically validated. By comparing the experimental $γ$ spectrum with the Isospin-dependent Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck simulations, the high momentum tail (HMT) fraction of $R_{\rm HMT}=(20 \pm 3)\%$ is derived in $^{124}$Sn nuclei. This work provides a detailed and validated experimental framework for extracting SRC information from bremsstrahlung $γ$-ray emission and demonstrates the feasibility of studying nucleon SRCs with high precision in low-energy heavy-ion collisions.

A Distributionally Robust Optimization Approach to Quick Response Models under Demand Uncertainty

Quick response is a widely adopted strategy to mitigate overproduction in the manufacturing industry, yet recent research reveals a counter-intuitive paradox: while it reduces waste from unsold finished goods, it may incentivize firms to procure more raw materials, potentially increasing total system waste. Additionally, existing models that guide quick response strategies rely on the assumption of a known demand distribution, whereas in practice, demand patterns are often ambiguous and historical data are scarce. To address these challenges, we develop a distributionally robust optimization (DRO) framework for the quick response model that builds robust policies even with limited data. We further integrate a novel waste-to-consumption ratio constraint into this framework, empowering firms to explicitly control the environmental impact of their operations. Our numerical experiments demonstrate that policies optimized for specific demand assumptions suffer severe performance degradation under distributional shifts, whereas our data-driven DRO approach consistently delivers superior robustness. Moreover, we find that the constrained quick response model resolves the central paradox: it can achieve higher profits with verifiably less total waste than a traditional, non-flexible alternative. These results resolve the `quick response or not' debate by showing that the question is not \emph{whether} to use quick response, but \emph{how} to manage it. By incorporating socially responsible metrics as constraints, the quick response system delivers a `win-win' outcome for both profitability and the environment compared to traditional systems.

MATTERIX: toward a digital twin for robotics-assisted chemistry laboratory automation

Accelerated materials discovery is critical for addressing global challenges. However, developing new laboratory workflows relies heavily on real-world experimental trials, and this can hinder scalability because of the need for numerous physical make-and-test iterations. Here we present MATTERIX, a multiscale, graphics processing unit-accelerated robotic simulation framework designed to create high-fidelity digital twins of chemistry laboratories, thus accelerating workflow development. This multiscale digital twin simulates robotic physical manipulation, powder and liquid dynamics, device functionalities, heat transfer and basic chemical reaction kinetics. This is enabled by integrating realistic physics simulation and photorealistic rendering with a modular graphics processing unit-accelerated semantics engine, which models logical states and continuous behaviors to simulate chemistry workflows across different levels of abstraction. MATTERIX streamlines the creation of digital twin environments through open-source asset libraries and interfaces, while enabling flexible workflow design via hierarchical plan definition and a modular skill library that incorporates learning-based methods. Our approach demonstrates sim-to-real transfer in robotic chemistry setups, reducing reliance on costly real-world experiments and enabling the testing of hypothetical automated workflows in silico.

Programmable Quantum Anomalous Hall Insulator in Twisted Crystalline Flatbands

The isospin flavors in condensed matters can be continuously broken, forming various symmetry-broken quantum states. In moiré crystals, the competition between different isospin configurations can be effectively tuned by the twist angles and staciking orders. Here we report twisted double rhombohedral-trilayer-gaphene as a new twisted crystalline flatbands system showing rich moiré dependent topological phenomena. In devices with small twist angles, programmable Chern insulators with Chern number C = 3 at integer moiré filling v = 1 have been observed. We have further revealed an exotic hidden order which can quench the Chern insulator as well as multiple first-order transitions between different symmetry-broken phases. Interestly, in the device with a slightly larger twist angle, multiple Chern insulators with C = 1 at fractional moiré fillings including v = 1/4, 1/3 and 1/2 have been observed, whereas the Chern insulator at v = 1 is abscent. Our study demonstrated the twisted flatbands form rhombohedral-multilayer-graphene as a new platform to study tunable high Chern insulators as well as new devices for quantum storage and computation.

From inconsistency to decision: explainable operation and maintenance of battery energy storage systems

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) are increasingly critical to power-system stability, yet their operation and maintenance remain dominated by reactive, expert-dependent diagnostics. While cell-level inconsistencies provide early warning signals of degradation and safety risks, the lack of scalable and interpretable decision-support frameworks prevents these signals from being effectively translated into operational actions. Here we introduce an inconsistency-driven operation and maintenance paradigm for large-scale BESSs that systematically transforms routine monitoring data into explainable, decision-oriented guidance. The proposed framework integrates multi-dimensional inconsistency evaluation with large language model-based semantic reasoning to bridge the gap between quantitative diagnostics and practical maintenance decisions. Using eight months of field data from an in-service battery system comprising 3,564 cells, we demonstrate how electrical, thermal, and aging-related inconsistencies can be distilled into structured operational records and converted into actionable maintenance insights through a multi-agent framework. The proposed approach enables accurate and explainable responses to real-world operation and maintenance queries, reducing response time and operational cost by over 80% compared with conventional expert-driven practices. These results establish a scalable pathway for intelligent operation and maintenance of battery energy storage systems, with direct implications for reliability, safety, and cost-effective integration of energy storage into modern power systems.

Distributionally Robust Performative Optimization

In performative stochastic optimization, decisions can influence the distribution of random parameters, rendering the data-generating process itself decision-dependent. In practice, decision-makers rarely have access to the true distribution map and must instead rely on imperfect surrogate models, which can lead to severely suboptimal solutions under misspecification. Data scarcity or costly collection further exacerbates these challenges in real-world settings. To address these challenges, we propose a distributionally robust framework for performative optimization that explicitly accounts for ambiguity in the decision-dependent distribution. Our framework introduces three modeling paradigms that capture a broad range of applications in machine learning and decision-making under uncertainty. This latter setting has not previously been explored in the performative optimization literature. To tackle the intractability of the resulting nonconvex objectives, we develop an iterative algorithm named repeated robust risk minimization, which alternates between solving a decision-independent distributionally robust optimization problem and updating the ambiguity set based on the previous decision. This decoupling ensures computational tractability at each iteration while enhancing robustness to model uncertainty. We provide reformulations compatible with off-the-shelf solvers and establish theoretical guarantees on convergence and suboptimality. Extensive numerical experiments in strategic classification, revenue management, and portfolio optimization demonstrate significant performance gains over state-of-the-art baselines, highlighting the practical value of our approach.

Probing the Three-dimension Emission Source and Neutron Skin via $π$-$π$ Correlations in Heavy-Ion Collisions

The Richardson-Lucy algorithm is applied to reconstruct the three-dimensional source function of identical pions from their two-particle correlation functions. The algorithm's performance is first evaluated through simulations with Gaussian-type initial source functions. Its imaging quality and robustness are further demonstrated with experimental data from Au+Au collisions at 1.23 A GeV, collected by the HADES Collaboration. Additionally, using UrQMD simulations of Pb+Pb collisions at 1.5 A GeV, we show that the deblurred source functions exhibit sensitivity to the initial neutron skin thickness of the colliding nuclei. This highlights the potential of the Richardson-Lucy algorithm as a tool for probing the neutron density distribution in heavy nuclei.

Simulation studies of the isovector reorientation effect of deuteron scattering on heavy target

The isovector reorientation (IVR) effect of deuteron scattering on heavy target provides a novel means to probe the nuclear isovector potential, which gives rise to the nuclear symmetry energy. The simulation studies on the experimental measurement of IVR effect using the SAMURAI terminal at RIKEN Nishina center have been performed to demonstrate the feasibility of the experiment. By introducing a well-designed polarimeter to detect the $\mathrm{p}(\vec{\mathrm{d}}, \mathrm{d})\mathrm{p}$ elastic scattering, monitoring of the tensor polarization of the deuteron beam can be implemented. The protons and neutrons produced by the breakup of polarized deuterons scattering off heavy targets are designed to be measured by proton drift chamber (PDC) combined with the SAMURAI magnet and NEBULA detector, respectively. The detector responses are simulated using Geant4 framework, where the events of the deuteron elastic breakup are generated by an Improved Quantum Molecular Dynamics model. The results of reconstructing the deuteron breakup events demonstrate the feasibility of detecting the IVR effect at SAMURAI with both longitudinal and transverse tensor polarized deuteron beams with a polarization degree of approximately 80\%.

Unlocking the initial neutron density distribution from the two-pion HBT correlation function in heavy-ion collisions

Revealing the neutron density distribution in the nucleus is one of the crucial tasks of nuclear physics. Within the framework of the ultrarelativistic quantum molecular dynamic model followed by a correlation afterburner program, we investigate the effects of the initial neutron density distribution on the charged-pion yield ratio $π^{-}/π^{+}$, the two-pion momentum correlation function, and the emission source dimension. It is found that the $π^{-}/π^{+}$ ratio is sensitive to the initial neutron density distribution and the impact parameter, especially for collisions at large impact parameter. However, the charge splitting in the correlation functions between positively $π^{+}π^{+}$ and negatively $π^{-}π^{-}$, as well as the source radii and volumes extracted exhibit a stronger dependence on the initial neutron density distribution, but a weaker dependence on the impact parameter. The present study highlights that $π^{+}π^{+}$ and $π^{-}π^{-}$ correlation functions in heavy-ion collisions could be used to probe the initial neutron density distribution of nuclei.

RemixFusion: Residual-based Mixed Representation for Large-scale Online RGB-D Reconstruction

The introduction of the neural implicit representation has notably propelled the advancement of online dense reconstruction techniques. Compared to traditional explicit representations, such as TSDF, it improves the mapping completeness and memory efficiency. However, the lack of reconstruction details and the time-consuming learning of neural representations hinder the widespread application of neural-based methods to large-scale online reconstruction. We introduce RemixFusion, a novel residual-based mixed representation for scene reconstruction and camera pose estimation dedicated to high-quality and large-scale online RGB-D reconstruction. In particular, we propose a residual-based map representation comprised of an explicit coarse TSDF grid and an implicit neural module that produces residuals representing fine-grained details to be added to the coarse grid. Such mixed representation allows for detail-rich reconstruction with bounded time and memory budget, contrasting with the overly-smoothed results by the purely implicit representations, thus paving the way for high-quality camera tracking. Furthermore, we extend the residual-based representation to handle multi-frame joint pose optimization via bundle adjustment (BA). In contrast to the existing methods, which optimize poses directly, we opt to optimize pose changes. Combined with a novel technique for adaptive gradient amplification, our method attains better optimization convergence and global optimality. Furthermore, we adopt a local moving volume to factorize the mixed scene representation with a divide-and-conquer design to facilitate efficient online learning in our residual-based framework. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method surpasses all state-of-the-art ones, including those based either on explicit or implicit representations, in terms of the accuracy of both mapping and tracking on large-scale scenes.

BoxFusion: Reconstruction-Free Open-Vocabulary 3D Object Detection via Real-Time Multi-View Box Fusion

Open-vocabulary 3D object detection has gained significant interest due to its critical applications in autonomous driving and embodied AI. Existing detection methods, whether offline or online, typically rely on dense point cloud reconstruction, which imposes substantial computational overhead and memory constraints, hindering real-time deployment in downstream tasks. To address this, we propose a novel reconstruction-free online framework tailored for memory-efficient and real-time 3D detection. Specifically, given streaming posed RGB-D video input, we leverage Cubify Anything as a pre-trained visual foundation model (VFM) for single-view 3D object detection by bounding boxes, coupled with CLIP to capture open-vocabulary semantics of detected objects. To fuse all detected bounding boxes across different views into a unified one, we employ an association module for correspondences of multi-views and an optimization module to fuse the 3D bounding boxes of the same instance predicted in multi-views. The association module utilizes 3D Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) and a box correspondence matching module, while the optimization module uses an IoU-guided efficient random optimization technique based on particle filtering to enforce multi-view consistency of the 3D bounding boxes while minimizing computational complexity. Extensive experiments on ScanNetV2 and CA-1M datasets demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance among online methods. Benefiting from this novel reconstruction-free paradigm for 3D object detection, our method exhibits great generalization abilities in various scenarios, enabling real-time perception even in environments exceeding 1000 square meters.

See the Forest and the Trees: A Synergistic Reasoning Framework for Knowledge-Based Visual Question Answering

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have pushed the frontiers of Knowledge-Based Visual Question Answering (KBVQA), yet their reasoning is fundamentally bottlenecked by a reliance on uni-dimensional evidence. This "seeing only the trees, but not the forest" approach prevents robust, multi-faceted understanding. Inspired by the principle of seeing both the forest and trees, we propose Synergos-VQA, a novel synergistic reasoning framework. At its core, Synergos-VQA concurrently generates and fuses three complementary evidence streams at inference time: (1) Holistic Evidence to perceive the entire scene (the "forest"), (2) Structural Evidence from a prototype-driven module to identify key objects (the "trees"), and (3) Causal Evidence from a counterfactual probe to ensure the reasoning is robustly grounded. By synergistically fusing this multi-faceted evidence, our framework achieves a more comprehensive and reliable reasoning process. Extensive experiments show that Synergos-VQA decisively establishes a new state-of-the-art on three challenging benchmarks, including OK-VQA and A-OKVQA. Furthermore, our approach demonstrates strong plug-and-play capabilities, significantly boosting various open-source MLLMs and proving that superior methodological design can outperform sheer model scale.
