An analogue in certain unique factorization domains of the Euclid-Euler theorem on perfect numbers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1990
We show that there exists a natural extention of the sum of divisors function to all unique factorization domains F having a finite number of units such that if a perfect number in F is defined to be an integer η whose proper divisors sum to η, then the ...

Continuum Mechanics Modeling of Flexible Spring Joints in Surgical Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A new mechanical model of a tendon‐actuated helical extension spring joint in surgical robots is built using Cosserat rod theory. The model can implicitly handle the unknown contacts between adjacent coils and numerically predict spring shapes from straight to significantly bent under actuation forces.

Data‐Driven Bulldozer Blade Control for Autonomous Terrain Leveling

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A simulation‐driven framework for autonomous bulldozer leveling is presented, combining high‐fidelity terramechanics simulation with a neural‐network‐based reduced‐order model. Gradient‐based optimization enables efficient, low‐level blade control that balances leveling quality and operation time.

Integer Factoring with Unoperations

open access: yesCoRR
This work introduces the notion of unoperation $\mathfrak{Un}(\hat{O})$ of some operation $\hat{O}$. Given a valid output of $\hat{O}$, the corresponding unoperation produces a set of all valid inputs to $\hat{O}$ that produce the given output. Further, the working principle of unoperations is illustrated using the example of addition.

Consensus Formation and Change are Enhanced by Neutrality

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Neutral agents are shown to enhance both the formation and overturning of consensus in collective decision‐making. A general mathematical model and experiments with locusts and humans reveal that neutrality enables robust consensus via simple interactions and accelerates consensus change by reducing effective population size.

Factorization of cubic vertices involving three different higher spin fields

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2014
We derive a class of cubic interaction vertices for three higher spin fields, with integer spins λ1, λ2, λ3, by closing commutators of the Poincaré algebra in four-dimensional flat spacetime.

A Reduction of Integer Factorization to Modular Tetration [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Foundations of Computer Science, 2020
Let [Formula: see text]. By [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], we denote the [Formula: see text] th iterate of the exponential function [Formula: see text] evaluated at [Formula: see text], also known as tetration. We demonstrate how an algorithm for evaluating tetration modulo natural numbers [Formula: see text] could be used to compute the

Nonnegative factorization and the maximum edge biclique problem [PDF]

open access: yes
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a data analysis technique based on the approximation of a nonnegative matrix with a product of two nonnegative factors, which allows compression and interpretation of nonnegative data. In this paper, we study the

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...

A Perspective on Interactive Theorem Provers in Physics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Into an interactive theorem provers (ITPs), one can write mathematical definitions, theorems and proofs, and the correctness of those results is automatically checked. This perspective goes over the best usage of ITPs within physics and motivates the open‐source community run project PhysLean, the aim of which is to be a library for digitalized physics
