Global Multi-Maturity SPX-VIX Calibration Beyond Markovian Stitching

We develop a global framework for joint S&P 500 (SPX)-VIX smile calibration across multiple maturities without the conditional-independence restriction induced by Markovian stitching. Exact local and global feasibility are equivalent: every globally feasible law has a block-preserving SPX-Markovization that leaves each monthly $(S_i,V_i,S_{i+1})$ law unchanged. Nevertheless, stitched laws can form a strict subset of globally feasible path laws because Markovization discards dependence on earlier history beyond the current SPX level. Adjacent smiles therefore cannot identify this dependence, and laws with identical monthly calibrations can price multi-period claims differently. Under the standard Markov reference, relative entropy selects the stitched minimum-information completion; non-Markov dependence requires cross-period information, an appropriate objective, or a history-dependent prior. For finite discretizations, we introduce an augmented-Bregman mirror-descent scheme. It preserves the fit to observable quote moments while controlling martingale and dispersion residuals. In a controlled infeasible affine system, this split keeps prescribed marginals about $25$ times tighter than cyclic row projection by exposing the discrepancy in the conditional rows. An exact finite-state example verifies block preservation and exhibits material cross-period price changes after Markovization. On smoothed SPX and VIX surfaces, numerical calculations illustrate a finite-budget penalty path: the worst fitted-smile error remains below $0.70$ volatility points across the reported sweep while the bulk conditional diagnostics improve substantially.

A multicenter benchmark and clinically structured metric for coronary CTA report generation

Reliable evaluation of automated coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) report generation requires standardized multicentre benchmarks and clinically structured metrics. We established a four-centre benchmark comprising 3,021 CCTA series from 818 patient-report pairs to evaluate seven open-source three-dimensional vision-language models. We developed CSM$_{\text{CCTA}}$, a clinically structured metric for CCTA report evaluation, with patient-, vessel-, and segment-level variables defined according to clinical guidelines. Report pairs are compared at the finest shared anatomical level, and the contributions of different clinical components are weighted based on expert assessments. We estimated these weights using 70 expert-scored cases and evaluated clinical alignment in a non-overlapping set of 30 cases. CSM$_{\text{CCTA}}$ showed a strong correlation with radiologist scores (Pearson's $r=0.97$, $p<0.001$), exceeding the next-best metric, FORTE ($r=0.70$), by 0.27, and agreed with expert preferences in 115 of 160 pairwise comparisons (71.9\%). Under controlled perturbations, CSM$_{\text{CCTA}}$ remained stable to clinically equivalent wording and decreased monotonically with progressive information omission. In the multicenter benchmark, the CCTA-trained C2RG model achieved the highest CSM$_{\text{CCTA}}$ scores across all four hospitals, although its performance remained far from optimal. In contrast, CCTA-irrelevant reports accounted for up to 98.7\% of the outputs from generalist models. Together, the benchmark provides a standardized setting for model comparison, while CSM$_{\text{CCTA}}$ enables clinically structured evaluation of finding agreement and anatomical specificity. These results support a more clinically aligned and anatomically resolved approach to evaluating CCTA report generation. Code is available at https://openi.pcl.ac.cn/OpenMedIA/CSM_CCTA.

Reliable LLM-Generated Programs for High-Energy Physics Experiments through Graph-Grounded Software Knowledge

Extracting physics information from modern particle-physics experiments requires multistage analyses implemented on top of large and highly interconnected software ecosystems. General-purpose large language models (LLMs) often produce unreliable programs for such tasks because a user request alone rarely specifies the required APIs, dependencies, and usage conventions. We organize these software relations before generation and retrieve task-relevant knowledge at inference time. Using the open-source ROOT framework as a representative and reproducible testbed, we evaluate a complete grounding system that combines hybrid retrieval over a heterogeneous software knowledge graph, skill-selected workflow examples, and execution-guided repair. On a benchmark of 275 ROOT tasks, grounding improves first-attempt execution from 58.5% to 76.0% under Claude Code orchestration and from 51.3% to 64.0% under standalone orchestration. Final success increases from 90.5% to 96.0% and from 78.9% to 90.9%, respectively, while the average generation cost per successful task increases by only 1.3% and 3.2%. The gains persist under a strong coding agent, indicating that explicit software knowledge remains valuable even when agentic scaffolding is already in place. Because the method captures software relations common to large codebases rather than facts specific to ROOT or a particular model, it should transfer to other experiment frameworks and proprietary software, especially where documentation is sparse or internal dependencies are complex.

Attractors and Singular Limits for a Quintic Wave Equation with Nonlocal Kelvin--Voigt Damping

In this article, we consider an energy-critical quintic wave equation on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$ with nonlinear and nonlocal Kelvin--Voigt damping of the form $-\|\nabla u_t\|_{L^2(\Omega)}^\alpha\Delta u_t$, where $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}_+=[0,\infty)$. Under suitable hypotheses on the quintic source term, we establish the well-posedness of the problem and investigate its long-time dynamics in the natural energy space $\mathcal H=H_0^1(\Omega)\times L^2(\Omega)$. For every $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}_+$, we show that the associated dynamical system $(\mathcal H,S^\alpha(t))$ is gradient and dissipative, and we prove a stabilization estimate that yields asymptotic smoothness and, consequently, the existence of a compact global attractor $\mathcal A_\alpha$. The same estimate provides an upper bound for the Kolmogorov $\varepsilon$-entropy of $\mathcal A_\alpha$ and, in the limiting case $\alpha=0$, reduces to a quasi-stability inequality, which implies that $\mathcal A_0$ has finite fractal dimension. Furthermore, we prove that the family $\{\mathcal A_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in\mathbb{R}_+}$ is uniformly bounded in the higher-regularity space $\mathcal H_1=(H^2(\Omega)\cap H_0^1(\Omega))\times H_0^1(\Omega)$. Finally, we establish the upper semicontinuity of $\{\mathcal A_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in\mathbb{R}_+}$ at $\alpha=0$, showing that the attractors associated with the nonlinear and nonlocal Kelvin--Voigt damping converge to the global attractor of the limiting problem with classical linear Kelvin--Voigt damping.

G0.5: One Autoregressive Stream for Robot Reasoning and Action

The prevailing recipe for Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models couples a pretrained VLM with a separately trained flow-matching action expert. This makes the VLM a context encoder rather than a decision-maker. We introduce G0.5, a pretrained autoregressive VLA in which a single transformer decoder emits reasoning and action tokens under a single objective. Three components make this tractable at foundation-model scale: a learnable cross-embodiment action tokenizer that maps heterogeneous robot actions into a shared vocabulary; a native chain-of-thought stream interleaving task decomposition, object grounding, and action hints with action tokens; and a visual memory module that injects multi-second history through the vision encoder. Because reasoning and action share a single set of weights, the pretrained VLM's capabilities carry over to physical behavior: the model follows instructions closely, and prompts directly steer action granularity, task horizon, and out-of-distribution scene handling without further training. Pretrained on a large collection of robot datasets together with VQA samples, G0.5 surpasses state-of-the-art models across 7 independent regimes: real-world fine-tuning on R1lite and R1pro robots (76.7\% vs.\ 53.3\% for $\pi_{0.5}$ and 24.4\% for GR00T-N1.7), the 2025 BEHAVIOR Challenge on 50 long-horizon household mobile manipulation tasks using a generalist policy (31.4\% vs.\ 26.3\% for $\pi_{0.5}$ and 26.1\% for the challenge winner), DROID post-training followed by zero-shot transfer to an unseen environment and objects (82.5\%), a language-following Pick-and-Place benchmark, LIBERO (98.9\%), RoboTwin 2.0 (93.3\%), and SimplerEnv-Bridge (87.3\%).

Faster Algorithms for Multimarginal Optimal Transport

We study algorithms for approximating the multimarginal optimal transport (MOT) distance, a generalization of the classic optimal transport distance, between $m$ discrete probability distributions each supported on at most $n$ points. We give a classical algorithm that computes a coupling between these marginals whose expected transportation cost is within an additive $\varepsilon > 0$ of the MOT distance in time $O(m^2 n^m \varepsilon^{-1}\mathrm{polylog}(m,n,\varepsilon^{-1}))$. This is, to our knowledge, the first bound for general MOT problems with simultaneous linear dependence on the dimension $n^m$ and on the accuracy parameter $\varepsilon^{-1}$, improving the prior state of the art. On the quantum side, we give two algorithms that achieve speedups in dimension, though with worse accuracy dependence than classical approaches. First, we construct a quantum projected subgradient method for estimating the MOT distance within an additive $\varepsilon >0$ with runtime $O( m^3 n^{\frac{m}{2}+1} \varepsilon^{-2} \mathrm{polylog}(m,n,\varepsilon^{-1}))$. This algorithm works with the linear programming dual of the MOT problem, and does not return a coupling. We also give a quantum multimarginal Sinkhorn algorithm for entropy-regularized MOT. This algorithm returns an implicit description of an approximately optimal coupling with runtime $O(m^8n^{\frac{m+1}{2}} \varepsilon^{-5} \mathrm{polylog}(m,n,\varepsilon^{-1})))$ after the usual reduction from entropic MOT to unregularized MOT. We also record query lower bounds: for any precision $\varepsilon<1/2$, randomized classical algorithms require $\Omega(n^m/(1+\varepsilon n))$ queries and quantum algorithms require $\Omega(\sqrt{n^m/(1+\varepsilon n)})$ queries.

Spin-canting-induced Giant Nonlinear Optical Magnetochirality in a 2D Ferrotoroid

Achieving magnetically switchable chiral light emission is an important goal for 2D opto-spintronics. However, conventional strategies face a fundamental trade-off between dynamic tunability and polarization contrast. Nonlinear optics, particularly the emerging mechanism of chiral second-harmonic generation (SHG), offers a distinct strategy to bypass this restriction, yet its experimental realization remains elusive due to stringent symmetry requirements. Here, we report giant nonlinear optical magnetochirality in a centrosymmetric 2D ferrotoroid, bilayer (2L) CrSBr. We reveal that a field-induced spin-canting state breaks the parity-time (PT) symmetry of the unperturbed antiferromagnetic (AFM) ground state, activating a spin-chirality-driven i-type susceptibility. The coherent interference between this emergent i-type and intrinsic c-type SHG susceptibilities generates a macroscopic circularly polarized SHG signal whose helicity is magnetically switchable. Leveraging this sensitive mechanism, we uncover remanent magnetic states after field saturation that evade conventional linear probes. By exploiting the non-volatility of these states, we demonstrate magneto-optical memory and logic operations. Our work establishes a general symmetry-driven strategy for tailoring nonlinear magnetochirality, while providing a sensitive optical probe for subtle spin textures in the 2D limit.

PhysAgent: A Multi-Agent Framework for Reliable Remote Heart Rate Estimation

Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) enables non-contact heart-rate estimation from facial videos, but its weak physiological signal is easily corrupted by motion, illumination changes, occlusion, skin-appearance variation, and device noise. Existing rPPG methods typically rely on a single model to directly predict heart rate or recover pulse waveforms, while different strong estimators may produce conflicting yet individually plausible candidates for the same video. To resolve these conflicts, we propose PhysAgent, an inference-time multi-agent candidate-verification framework. Unlike direct prediction approaches, PhysAgent neither trains a new base rPPG model nor asks Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to output heart rate directly. In contrast, it treats outputs from multiple base estimators as physiological hypotheses to be verified and uses a lightweight 4B MLLM, Qwen3-VL-4B, to drive multi-agent reasoning over video conditions, signal reliability, and candidate disagreement. A deterministic physiological verifier checks the fusion proposal, and a reproducible numerical fusion process produces the final heart rate. Experimental results on multiple public rPPG benchmarks show that PhysAgent improves fusion stability and reliability across different datasets and source-domain settings, while avoiding the irreproducibility and physiological inconsistency of direct MLLM prediction or unconstrained ensemble fusion. The code will be released soon.

EA-Nav: Learning Safe Visual Navigation Policies with Embodiment Awareness

Cross-embodiment navigation is a key challenge in embodied intelligence. Due to differences in embodiment, the same visual observation may imply different actions for different agents, making prediction ambiguous when relying solely on vision. Existing studies mainly rely on reinforcement learning, which requires large-scale interaction and careful reward design, making it difficult to support scalable pretraining and real-world adaptation. In contrast, imitation-learning-based approaches remain limited. To address these challenges, we propose an imitation-learning-based embodiment-aware navigation framework with a modular multi-stage design. In pretraining, we construct a cross-embodiment navigation dataset from Internet videos and introduce embodiment geometry as conditional tokens to reduce action ambiguity under the same observation. In fine-tuning, we design a multimodal information injection mechanism based on a decoupled architecture. Specifically, we design a trajectory augmentation strategy to generate high-risk samples, which are used to train spatial perception and risk-aware correction separately, thereby explicitly incorporating embodiment geometry for safe navigation. Experimental results show that the proposed method effectively improves navigation performance across different embodiment settings, demonstrating the effectiveness of incorporating embodiment geometry into embodied navigation.

Motif-Mamba: network motif improved mamba for long-range sequence modeling

Efficient long-sequence modeling remains a central challenge for large language models, as self-attention scales quadratically with sequence length. Mamba offers a linear-time alternative through selective state space recurrence, but its predominantly diagonal state transitions restrict explicit interactions among state dimensions. We propose Motif-Mamba, a structured state space model that augments Mamba with a motif-constrained low-rank recurrent pathway. Inspired by the dynamics of three-node network motifs, the proposed pathway projects hidden states into a compact dynamical subspace, imposes motif-guided interactions, and maps the resulting dynamics back to the original state space. This design enhances cross-dimensional communication while preserving the linear-time recurrent structure of Mamba. Experiments on long-sequence extrapolation, language modeling benchmarks, and brain--computer interface decoding show consistent improvements over Mamba backbones, suggesting that motif-guided low-rank dynamics provide an effective structural prior for long-range sequence modeling.

ClinRAG-GRAPH: Clinical-prior Retrieval-Augmented Graph Model with Domain Adversarial Learning for Breast pCR Prediction

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) response prediction is clinically important for treatment stratification in breast cancer. However, robust pre-treatment pathological complete response (pCR) prediction remains challenging due to insufficient cross-modal modeling, multicenter imaging heterogeneity, and weak evidence-grounded interpretability. We propose ClinRAG-GRAPH, a Clinically informed Retrieval-Augmented Generation Graph framework, for pre-treatment pCR prediction from DCE-MRI, structured clinical variables, and biopsy-derived pathological biomarkers. ClinRAG-GRAPH constructs an intra-patient clinical-prior graph and applies a prior-guided relation-aware graph convolutional network for structured multimodal representation learning. To improve cross-center robustness, we introduce a dual-branch domain-adversarial learning strategy to suppress protocol-related MRI bias while preserving pCR-relevant features. To enhance interpretability, we further incorporate large language model (LLM)-driven subgraph RAG module that retrieves clinically analogous historical cases and integrates retrieved evidence for pCR inference. We assemble a large-scale multicenter NAC breast cancer cohort for extensive validation, drawing from two public sources and three in-house centers.Results show that ClinRAG-GRAPH achieves AUCs of 0.815 on the internal test set and 0.774/0.712 on two external test sets, demonstrating robust pre-treatment pCR prediction across centers. The code is available at the anonymized https://github.com/miccai26-1181/ClinRAG-GRAPH.

Quantum-Informed Portfolio Selection: An End-to-End Pipeline Validated on Trapped-Ion Hardware with Real Market Data

Portfolio diversification - a cornerstone of modern investment management - can be formulated as a Maximum Independent Set (MIS) problem on asset correlation graphs. Solving this problem at scale is computationally challenging, motivating the exploration of quantum algorithms for practical financial optimization. We propose an end-to-end pipeline leveraging qReduMIS, a recursive hybrid quantum-classical algorithm. Rather than using quantum optimization to directly produce a final solution, qReduMIS leverages independent set measurements from the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) to identify frozen nodes - vertices likely to belong to optimal solutions - thereby guiding and unblocking subsequent (provably optimal) classical reductions on the remaining graph. We benchmark qReduMIS on real financial data from four major market indices with up to 225 assets, executing experiments on Quantinuum's 98-qubit trapped-ion Helios system, with QAOA circuits acting on kernels of up to 78 qubits and 1016 two-qubit gates. While standalone QAOA fails to find the optimal solution for two of the largest indices (S&P 100 and Nikkei 225), qReduMIS achieves success probabilities of $0.40$ and $0.95$, respectively, with average approximation ratios $\geq 0.96$ across all four indices. We perform a systematic benchmark on the Quantinuum H2-1 noisy emulator over 73 asset correlation graphs of varying size showing that, for $p=2$ QAOA layers, the optimal time-to-solution scaling exponent of qReduMIS is $3.2$ times smaller than that of standalone QAOA.

Electrically Programmable Correlated Topology and Magnetism in a Moir\'e Trilayer

Strong electron-electron interactions underlie a wide range of quantum many-body phenomena, including magnetism, superconductivity, and charge fractionalization. A central goal is to achieve in situ control over lattice geometry, bandwidth, and band topology within a single platform. Here we realize such an electrically programmable quantum many-body system in an alternating twisted trilayer MoTe$_2$, where an out-of-plane displacement field continuously modifies the layer polarization, effective lattice, and topology of the moir\'e bands. At zero displacement field, the system realizes a triangular lattice hosting a correlated insulator at one hole per moir\'e unit cell ($\nu = -1$). Doping this state produces strongly asymmetric magnetic responses: double-exchange-like ferromagnetism for $|\nu| > 1$, and signatures of spin polarons and antiferromagnetism for $|\nu| < 1$. At large displacement field, interlayer hybridization reconstructs the electronic structure into a honeycomb lattice with a flat Chern band, supporting integer and fractional Chern insulators. Magneto-optical measurements further reveal the signatures of gap closure and Landau-level formation from a spin-polarized Fermi surface near the crossover between the two regimes. These results establish a unified, electrically tunable platform in which correlated magnetism and topological states emerge from a single controllable band structure.

TaCauchy: An Extensible FEM Framework for Vision-Based Tactile Simulation

Vision-based tactile sensors require high-fidelity simulation for reinforcement learning, yet existing approaches struggle to provide accurate mechanical stress fields within GPU-accelerated robotics platforms. We present TaCauchy, an extensible Finite Element Method (FEM) framework that integrates rigorous physics-based force computation into Isaac Sim. Built on the Unified Incremental Potential Contact (UIPC) solver, TaCauchy directly computes Cauchy stress tensors from hyperelastic constitutive laws and projects them onto contact surfaces to obtain traction forces and pressure distributions, providing mechanical ground truth from first principles rather than empirical estimation. Our framework features automatic mesh generation with geometry-aware adaptive refinement and a modular sensor interface enabling rapid integration of diverse sensors (GelSight Mini, DIGIT, 9DTact) with minimal configuration. Performance benchmarks demonstrate 33.40 FPS for single environments and 555 FPS aggregate throughput across 60 parallel environments, with stress extraction overhead under 1 ms. Physical validation experiments show strong agreement between simulated and real tactile responses across force ranges from 1.2556 N to 4.7332 N, achieving SSIM above 0.93, confirming the framework's capability to provide accurate, physically-grounded force supervision for downstream robotic manipulation tasks.

Evolution of the intertwining correlated topological phases in iron-based superconductor Fe(Te,Se)

Multiple topological electronic phases can coexist within a single quantum material and induce different topological superconducting states, offering deeper insights into interplay of topological superconducting states and Majorana modes, which may also be influenced and modified by correlation effect. Iron-based superconductors, with both topological states and correlation effect, is an ideal platform to study these phenomena. Here, with high resolution angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, we directly resolve two distinct intertwining topological states in iron-based superconductor Co-doped Fe(Te,Se), and study their evolution with electron doping. We identify a region where both topological insulator surface states and topological Dirac semimetal states intersect the Fermi level. The topological states are affected by the strong correlation effect and are isolated from trivial bulk states. The evolution between distinct topological phases offers a good opportunity to study various Majorana modes from different superconducting phases according to theoretical analysis. Our findings establish an ideal platform for exploring the interaction between multiple topological superconducting states and the related Majorana modes.

A Method for Neutron-Gamma Pulse Shape Discrimination of CLYC Detector Based on a Gated Residual-Linear Attention Network

The discrimination of neutron and gamma pulse shapes is a key technology in fields such as nuclear safety monitoring and radiation assessment. An enhanced recursive gated cyclic residual-sparse linear attention network is developed on the CLYC detector experimental platform to overcome weak noise resistance, limited feature extraction and inferior real-time performance of conventional algorithms. The experimental dataset comprises 19,971 samples, which were pre-processed and stratified for model training and testing. Results indicate that the proposed algorithm achieves a quality factor of 2.2, with a classification accuracy of 98.7% and a recall rate of 99.4%. It achieves an accuracy of 95.1% under the 20 dB low signal-to-noise ratio condition, exhibiting excellent anti-noise ability.With around 2.8 million parameters, the model takes merely 0.05 ms to process a single pulse on GPU, satisfying real-time monitoring and embedded deployment demands.

Compatibility and Accuracy Verification of CADmesh-Based Complex Geometry Modeling in Geant4

Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation relies on the Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) method for complex geometric modeling. This method has low efficiency and a high application threshold. Importing triangular facet formats such as STL/OBJ via CADmesh is a promising alternative, but systematic evaluations of format compatibility, geometric accuracy, and physical simulation deviations are lacking. Construct open-source experimental environment based on Geant4 11.0, CADmesh 1.3.0 and FreeCAD 1.0. We design high and low precision gradient test cases using simple geometric bodies and complex engineering models, and systematically evaluate the import success rate, facet loss rate, volume error, and particle transport dose deviation for STL and OBJ formats.The results show a 100% import success rate for both formats; the volume error rate is <= 0.018% for high-precision models and <= 0.288% for low-precision models. The two formats share the same vertex facet data structure. This study designs a general adaptive interface. The interface reduces the number of parsing code lines by about 70% and maintains geometric accuracy.Furthermore, the tetrahedral mesh loading takes 3.1 times longer than tessellated solids, but the simulation time can be reduced from 15194.3 s to 77.28 s.
