Renormalization Group Analysis of Pairing Instabilities in Nuclear Fermi Liquids

A nuclear Fermi liquid exhibits competing pairing instabilities in different spin, isospin, and orbital channels. In a Fermi-surface renormalization group (RG) treatment, the channel that develops a pole first is determined not only by its tree-level attraction but also by its one-loop RG coefficient. We illustrate this mechanism in a minimal $S/P$-wave model. A spherical Fermi surface establishes the reference competition between the lowest even- and odd-parity interactions. Axial deformation changes the relevant Fermi-surface integrals and lifts the degeneracy between longitudinal and transverse $P$-wave components. In isospin-asymmetric matter, neutron--proton Fermi-momentum splitting restricts the simultaneous low-energy contribution of the two species and can terminate the $np$ running at finite threshold scales. Our calculations are intended as controlled one-loop RG illustrations rather than as quantitative nuclear-matter calculations. We show how the Fermi-surface geometry and composition can change the ordering of competing pairing instabilities.

Growth of quartet correlations in neutron-rich Tellurium isotopes within quartet Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory

Quartet correlations in neutron-rich Te isotopes are investigated within the quartet Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) framework. Taking $^{100}$Sn as an inert core, we consider two valence protons and valence neutrons occupying the $2d_{5/2} \oplus 1g_{7/2}$ model space, and solve the quartet BCS variational equations with a charge-independent isovector pairing interaction. The effective pairing strength is constrained from empirical neutron pairing gaps in the Te isotopic chain. We find that the valence quartet number increases as the valence neutron number is enlarged from $N_{\rm val}=2$ to $14$. The same increasing behavior is also found for the condensed quartet component. The proton occupation of the $1g_{7/2}$ orbit is strongly enhanced relative to the conventional like-particle BCS reference and is driven close to the degeneracy-weighted limit. These results suggest that additional valence neutrons enhance the quartet admixture in the correlated quartet BCS state, while redistributing the fixed proton weight from pair-like configurations to quartet configurations.

Semi-supervised Source Detection in Astronomical Images: New Benchmark and Strong Baseline

Source detection in modern observational astronomy is a cornerstone for localizing and identifying stellar sources accurately. It is crucial for studies such as stellar population synthesis and cosmological parameter estimation. However, the characteristics of astronomical images, including high density, the effect of point spread functions and low signal-to-noise ratios, significantly challenge the latest advanced object detectors. Besides, fully-supervised detection methods are hardly practical, due to the significant difficulty in annotating dense, small, and faint sources in astronomical images. To tackle the scarcity of astronomical datasets, we introduce a new comprehensive benchmark (LAMOST-DET), comprising 18,400 astronomical images and 728,898 source instances. Upon the dataset, we further devise a novel semi-supervised learning framework coined Nova Teacher, capable of detecting dense sources effectively given sparse annotations. It integrates source light enhancement module, confidence-guided pseudo-supervision, and cross-view complementary mining in a dual-teacher paradigm. Extensive experiments on LAMOST-DET show that, Nova Teacher consistently improves previous competitors by 4.04% and 5.22% mAP under two semi-supervised settings. Additionally, our method competes against other detectors on a natural image dataset, validating its generalization ability to various scenarios.

A Full-Stack Performance Evaluation Infrastructure for 3D-DRAM-based LLM Accelerators

Large language models (LLMs) exhibit memory-intensive behavior during decoding, making it a key bottleneck in LLM inference. To accelerate decoding execution, hybrid-bonding-based 3D-DRAM has been adopted in LLM accelerators. While this emerging technology provides strong performance gains over existing hardware, current 3D-DRAM accelerators (3D-Accelerators) rely on closed-source evaluation tools, limiting access to publicly available performance analysis methods. Moreover, existing designs are highly customized for specific scenarios, lacking a general and reusable full-stack modeling for 3D-Accelerators across diverse usecases. To bridge this fundamental gap, we present ATLAS, the first silicon-proven Architectural Three-dimesional-DRAM-based LLM Accelerator Simulation framework. Built on commercially deployed multi-layer 3D-DRAM technology, ATLAS introduces unified abstractions for both 3D-Accelerator system architecture and programming primitives to support arbitrary LLM inference scenarios. Validation against real silicon shows that ATLAS achieves $\le$8.57% simulation error and 97.26-99.96\% correlation with measured performance. Through design space exploration with ATLAS, we demonstrate its ability to guide architecture design and distill key takeaways for both 3D-DRAM memory system and 3D-Accelerator microarchitecture across scenarios. ATLAS will be open-sourced upon publication, enabling further research on 3D-Accelerators.

Hardware-Software Co-design for 3D-DRAM-based LLM Serving Accelerator

Large language models (LLMs) have been widely deployed for online generative services, where numerous LLM instances jointly handle workloads with fluctuating request arrival rates and variable request lengths. To efficiently execute coexisting compute-intensive and memory-intensive operators, near-memory processing (NMP) based computing paradigm has been extensively proposed. However, existing NMP designs adopt coarse-grained KV cache management and inflexible attention execution flow. Such limitations hinder these proposals from efficiently handling \textit{highly dynamic} LLM serving workloads, limiting their ability to accelerate LLM serving. To tackle these problems, we propose Helios, a Hybrid-bonding-based \uline{L}LM \uline{S}erving accelerator. Helios aims to bridge the fundamental gap between the dynamic nature of KV cache management in LLM serving and the distributed, non-uniform memory abstraction among NMP processing engines (PEs). To this end, we design both the intra-PE execution flow and the inter-PE communication primitives for distributed tiled attention execution. We further propose \textit{spatially-aware} KV cache allocation mechanism to balance the attention workload distribution while minimizing the inter-PE data transfer overhead. Compared with existing GPU/NMP designs, Helios achieves 3.25 times (geomean) speedup and 3.36 times (geomean) better energy efficiency, along with up to 72%/76% P50/P99 time-between-tokens degradation.

Mass-imbalance effect on the cluster formation in a one-dimensional Fermi gas with coexistent $s$- and $p$-wave interactions

We consider the mass-imbalance effect on the clustering in a one-dimensional two-component Fermi gas with coexistent even- and odd-wave interactions resulting in different configurations of clustering phases. We obtain the solutions of both stable two- and three-body cluster states with different mass ratios and configurations by solving the corresponding variational equations. We numerically map out phase diagrams consisting of the $s$- and $p$-wave pairing phases, and {trimer} phase with different configurations, in a plane of $s$- and $p$-wave pairing strengths. Within the explored ranges of $s$- and $p$-wave pairing strengths, the in-vacuum three-body states are always more deeply bound than the two-body ones. While for the in-medium case, the Cooper {trimer} phase dominates over the pairing phases when both $s$- and $p$-wave interactions are moderately strong. There is also a competition between different clustering configurations of three-body clustering.

Beyond Inpainting: Unleash 3D Understanding for Precise Camera-Controlled Video Generation

Camera control has been extensively studied in conditioned video generation; however, performing precisely altering the camera trajectories while faithfully preserving the video content remains a challenging task. The mainstream approach to achieving precise camera control is warping a 3D representation according to the target trajectory. However, such methods fail to fully leverage the 3D priors of video diffusion models (VDMs) and often fall into the Inpainting Trap, resulting in subject inconsistency and degraded generation quality. To address this problem, we propose DepthDirector, a video re-rendering framework with precise camera controllability. By leveraging the depth video from explicit 3D representation as camera-control guidance, our method can faithfully reproduce the dynamic scene of an input video under novel camera trajectories. Specifically, we design a View-Content Dual-Stream Condition mechanism that injects both the source video and the warped depth sequence rendered under the target viewpoint into the pretrained video generation model. This geometric guidance signal enables VDMs to comprehend camera movements and leverage their 3D understanding capabilities, thereby facilitating precise camera control and consistent content generation. Next, we introduce a lightweight LoRA-based video diffusion adapter to train our framework, fully preserving the knowledge priors of VDMs. Additionally, we construct a large-scale multi-camera synchronized dataset named MultiCam-WarpData using Unreal Engine 5, containing 8K videos across 1K dynamic scenes. Extensive experiments show that DepthDirector outperforms existing methods in both camera controllability and visual quality. Our code and dataset will be publicly available.

Comparative study of quartet superfluid state: Quartet Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory and generalized Nambu-Gor'kov formalism

We theoretically investigate a quartet superfluid state in fermionic matter by using the quartet Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) variational theory and the Green's function method. We demonstrate that the quartet BCS theory with the multiple-infinite-product ansatz successfully reproduces an exact four-body result in a one-dimensional four-component Fermi gas at the dilute limit, in contrast to the single-infinite-product ansatz. To see the validity of the quartet BCS state, we derive the self-consistent equation for the quartet superfluid order parameter within the generalized imaginary-time Nambu-Gor'kov formalism, which is found to be consistent with the quartet BCS variational equation. Moreover, by numerically computing the momentum-resolved single-particle spectral function in a one-dimensional system, we discuss how the single-particle spectra evolve with increasing the strength of the four-body cluster formation. We show that a coherent BCS-like quasiparticle branch on the weak-coupling side evolves into a strongly damped, continuum-dominated spectrum in the strong-coupling side, while nonzero quartet superfluid order parameter persists throughout the crossover regime. Our results would be useful for understanding beyond-BCS pairing effects and four-body cluster formations in fermionic systems in an interdisciplinary way.

Quartet correlations near the surface of $ N = Z $ nuclei

We theoretically investigate Cooper quartet correlations in $ N = Z $ doubly-magic nuclei ($ {}^{40} \mathrm{Ca} $, $ {}^{100} \mathrm{Sn} $, and $ {}^{164} \mathrm{Pb} $). We first examine the quartet condensation fraction in infinite symmetric nuclear matter by using the quartet Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory. Together with the total nucleon density profiles of doubly-magic nuclei obtained from the Skyrme Hartree-Fock calculation, we discuss the spatial distribution of quartet correlations in finite nuclei within the local density approximation. Large quartet condensate fractions are found at the surface region of an atomic nucleus due to the strong neutron-proton attractive interaction responsible for the deuteron formation in vacuum. Moreover, we discuss a possible microscopic origin of the Wigner term in the context of nucleon-quartet scattering in dilute symmetric nuclear matter. The nucleon-quartet scattering effect on the Wigner term is numerically estimated to be about one order of magnitude of the total empirical strength, indicating the importance of multinucleon clusters in the symmetry energy and mass formula in addition to the neutron-proton pairing.

Global-Local Distillation Network-Based Audio-Visual Speaker Tracking with Incomplete Modalities

In speaker tracking research, integrating and complementing multi-modal data is a crucial strategy for improving the accuracy and robustness of tracking systems. However, tracking with incomplete modalities remains a challenging issue due to noisy observations caused by occlusion, acoustic noise, and sensor failures. Especially when there is missing data in multiple modalities, the performance of existing multi-modal fusion methods tends to decrease. To this end, we propose a Global-Local Distillation-based Tracker (GLDTracker) for robust audio-visual speaker tracking. GLDTracker is driven by a teacher-student distillation model, enabling the flexible fusion of incomplete information from each modality. The teacher network processes global signals captured by camera and microphone arrays, and the student network handles local information subject to visual occlusion and missing audio channels. By transferring knowledge from teacher to student, the student network can better adapt to complex dynamic scenes with incomplete observations. In the student network, a global feature reconstruction module based on the generative adversarial network is constructed to reconstruct global features from feature embedding with missing local information. Furthermore, a multi-modal multi-level fusion attention is introduced to integrate the incomplete feature and the reconstructed feature, leveraging the complementarity and consistency of audio-visual and global-local features. Experimental results on the AV16.3 dataset demonstrate that the proposed GLDTracker outperforms existing state-of-the-art audio-visual trackers and achieves leading performance on both standard and incomplete modalities datasets, highlighting its superiority and robustness in complex conditions. The code and models will be available.

Probing Goldstino excitation through the tunneling transport in a Bose-Fermi mixture with explicitly broken supersymmetry

We theoretically investigate the tunneling transport in a repulsively interacting ultracold Bose-Fermi mixture. A two-terminal model is applied to such a mixture and the supersymmetric-like tunneling current through the junction can be induced by the bias of fermion chemical potential between two reservoirs. The Goldstino, which is the Nambu-Goldstone fermionic mode associated with the spontaneous sypersymmetry breaking and appears as a gapped mode in the presence of the explicit supersymmetry breaking in existing Bose-Fermi mixtures, is found to contribute to the tunneling transport as a supercharge exchanging process. Our study provides a potential way to detect the Goldstino transport in cold atom experiments.

Unseen No More: Unlocking the Potential of CLIP for Generative Zero-shot HOI Detection

Zero-shot human-object interaction (HOI) detector is capable of generalizing to HOI categories even not encountered during training. Inspired by the impressive zero-shot capabilities offered by CLIP, latest methods strive to leverage CLIP embeddings for improving zero-shot HOI detection. However, these embedding-based methods train the classifier on seen classes only, inevitably resulting in seen-unseen confusion for the model during inference. Besides, we find that using prompt-tuning and adapters further increases the gap between seen and unseen accuracy. To tackle this challenge, we present the first generation-based model using CLIP for zero-shot HOI detection, coined HOIGen. It allows to unlock the potential of CLIP for feature generation instead of feature extraction only. To achieve it, we develop a CLIP-injected feature generator in accordance with the generation of human, object and union features. Then, we extract realistic features of seen samples and mix them with synthetic features together, allowing the model to train seen and unseen classes jointly. To enrich the HOI scores, we construct a generative prototype bank in a pairwise HOI recognition branch, and a multi-knowledge prototype bank in an image-wise HOI recognition branch, respectively. Extensive experiments on HICO-DET benchmark demonstrate our HOIGen achieves superior performance for both seen and unseen classes under various zero-shot settings, compared with other top-performing methods.

Observation of a broad state-to-state spin-exchange collision near a p-wave Feshbach resonances of $^6$Li atoms

The study of state-to-state spin-exchange collisions in the vicinity of $p$-wave Feshbach resonances offer great opportunities to explore many-body interactions and novel quantum phases. Here, we report the observation of a spin-exchange collision near a $p$-wave Feshbach resonance within a mixture of the lowest and third-lowest hyperfine states of $^6$Li atoms. The spin-exchange interaction is observed over a range of ten gausses and produces a pair of atoms in the second-lowest hyperfine states that are captured by a deep optical dipole trap. We apply a coupled-channel method to calculate the scattering properties of this system. We find that the $p$-wave resonance exhibits a low inelastic collision rate and a broad resonance profile, which is due to the modification by the accompanying spin-exchange collisions. These findings open up new possibilities for the creation of long-lived, strongly interacting $p$-wave Fermi gases.

Medium-induced bosonic clusters in a Bose-Fermi mixture: Towards simulating cluster formations in neutron-rich matter

Considering bosonic atoms immersed in a dilute Fermi gas, we theoretically investigate medium-induced bosonic clusters associated with fermion-mediated two- and three-body interactions. Using the variational approach combined with the fermion-mediated interactions, we numerically calculate the binding energies of two- and three-body bosonic clusters in a one-dimensional system. It is found that the bosonic clusters can be formed even with a repulsive boson-boson interaction due to the fermion-mediated interactions. Our results would be relevant for ultracold atomic systems as well as analogue quantum simulations of alpha clusters in neutron-rich matter.

Revisiting Nyquist-Like Impedance-Based Criteria for Converter-Based AC Systems

Multiple types of Nyquist-like impedance-based criteria are utilized for the small-signal stability analysis of converter-based AC systems. It is usually considered that the determinant-based criterion can determine the overall stability of a system while the eigenvalue-based criterion can give more insights into the mechanism of the instability. This paper specifies such understandings starting with the zero-pole calculation of impedance matrices obtained by state-spaces with the Smith-McMillan form, then clarifying the absolute reliability of determinant-based criterion with the common assumption for impedance-based analysis that each subsystem can stably operate before the interconnection. However, ambiguities do exist for the eigenvalue-based criterion when an anticlockwise encirclement around the origin is observed in the Nyquist plot. To this end, a logarithmic derivative-based criterion to directly identify the system modes using the frequency responses of loop impedances is proposed, which owns a solid theoretical basis of the Schur complement of transfer function matrices. The theoretical analysis is validated using a PSCAD simulation of a grid-connected two-level voltage source converter.

Cooper pairing and tripling in one-dimensional spinless fermions with attractive two- and three-body forces

We theoretically investigate in-medium three-body correlations in one-dimensional spinless fermions with antisymmetrized two- and three-body attractive interactions. By investigating the variational problem of three-body states above the Fermi sea, we illuminate the fate of the in-medium three-body cluster states both in the special case with pure attractive three-body interaction as well as in the case with the coexistence of two- and three-body interactions. Our results testify that the fermion-dimer repulsion is canceled by including the three-body interactions, and stable three-body clusters can be formed. We further feature a phase diagram consisting of the $p$-wave Cooper pairing and Cooper tripling phases in a plane of $p$-wave two- and three-body coupling strengths.

BCS-BCS crossover between atomic and molecular superfluids in a Bose-Fermi mixture

We theoretically examine a continuity between atomic and molecular Fermi superfluids in a Bose-Fermi mixture near the Feshbach resonance. Considering a two-channel model describing the Feshbach resonance between Fermi and Bose atoms, we have constructed the mean-field framework based on the perturbative expansion of the Feshbach atom-dimer coupling. The resulting effective Hamiltonian exhibits not only the continuity between atom-atom to molecule-molecule Cooper pairings but also becomes equivalent to the two-band-superconductor model with Suhl-Matthias-Walker type pair-exchange coupling. We demonstrate how these atomic and molecular Fermi superfluids coexist within the two-band-like superfluid theory. The pair-exchange coupling and resulting superfluid gaps are found to be strongly enhanced near the Feshbach resonance due to the interplay between the infrared singularity of Bogoliubov phonons and their Landau damping arising from the coupling with fermions. The pair-exchange coupling can be probed via the observation of the intrinsic Josephson effect between atomic and molecular superfluids.

Competition between pairing and tripling in one-dimensional fermions with coexistent s- and p-wave interactions

We theoretically investigate in-medium two- and three-body correlations in one-dimensional two-component Fermi gases with coexistent even-parity s-wave and odd-parity p-wave interactions. We find the solutions of the stable in-medium three-body cluster states such as Cooper triple by solving the corresponding in-medium variational equations. We further feature the phase diagram consisting of the s- and p-wave Cooper pairing phase, and Cooper tripling phase, in the plane of s- and p-wave pairing strengths. The Cooper tripling phase dominates over the pairing phases when both s- and p-wave interactions are moderately strong.
