Reinforcement learning for optimal error correction of toric codes [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters, 2019
We apply deep reinforcement learning techniques to design high threshold decoders for the toric code under uncorrelated noise. By rewarding the agent only if the decoding procedure preserves the logical states of the toric code, and using deep ...

What England Is and What It Claims to Be: Orwell on National Identity

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article suggests that George Orwell's body of work offers a rather unique and insightful two‐part conception of national identity in the context of England, made up of a moral inheritance—the values of liberty, fairness and decency—and a lived sensibility—the fluid, experiential quality of collective life expressed in shared customs ...

Beyond Westminster: How the Four‐Day Working Week Reached the UK Public Sector

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom's emergence as a public sector pioneer in the four‐day working week debate presents a striking paradox. A post‐Thatcher liberal market economy hostile to statutory working‐time reform might be expected to resist government‐sponsored working‐time reduction in the public sector.

Proving the equivalence of c-extremization and its gravitational dual for all toric quivers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
The gravitational dual of c-extremization for a class of (0, 2) two-dimensional theories obtained by twisted compactifications of D3-brane gauge theories living at a toric Calabi-Yau three-fold has been recently proposed.

Has the Moment for Electoral Reform at Westminster Finally Arrived?

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract The rise to power of Andy Burnham, a vocal critic of first past the post, has put Westminster electoral reform back on the political agenda. This article examines the case for reforming the voting system, why it has strengthened in recent years, why efforts have failed before and what this tells us about the necessary conditions for reform: a ...

Subschemes of tropical toric varieties

open access: yes, 2017
The tropicalization of a projective toric variety is a topological space that "looks like" the associated polytope. Tropicalizations of subvarieties of a toric variety are polyhedral complexes inside this space.  These encode degenerations of the variety,

The Grammar of Race: British Fascism, Racial Nationalism and the Rise of Reform UK

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article brings histories of British fascism and the Black Radical Tradition into conversation with the study of contemporary British politics to offer a race‐critical analysis of Reform UK's rise. Drawing on race‐critical scholarship and Black Radical analyses of fascism, it argues that Reform UK is the latest formation of a distinctively
