text: Relaxed concurrent data structures have become increasingly popular, due to
their scalability in graph processing and machine learning applications (\citeNguyen13,
gonzalez2012powergraph ). Despite considerable interest, there exist families
of natural, high performing randomized relaxed concurrent data structures, such
as the popular MultiQueue~\citeMQ pattern for implementing relaxed priority queue
data structures, for which no guarantees are known in the concurrent setting~\citeAKLN17.
Our main contribution is in showing for the first time that, under a set of analytic
assumptions, a family of relaxed concurrent data structures, including variants
of MultiQueues, but also a new approximate counting algorithm we call the MultiCounter,
provides strong probabilistic guarantees on the degree of relaxation with respect
to the sequential specification, in arbitrary concurrent executions. We formalize
these guarantees via a new correctness condition called distributional linearizability,
tailored to concurrent implementations with randomized relaxations. Our result
is based on a new analysis of an asynchronous variant of the classic power-of-two-choices
load balancing algorithm, in which placement choices can be based on inconsistent,
outdated information (this result may be of independent interest). We validate
our results empirically, showing that the MultiCounter algorithm can implement
scalable relaxed timestamps.

text: "The Big Match is a multi-stage two-player game. In each stage Player 1 hides
one or two pebbles in his hand, and his opponent has to guess that number; Player
1 loses a point if Player 2 is correct, and otherwise he wins a point. As soon
as Player 1 hides one pebble, the players cannot change their choices in any future
stage.\r\nBlackwell and Ferguson (1968) give an ε-optimal strategy for Player
1 that hides, in each stage, one pebble with a probability that depends on the
entire past history. Any strategy that depends just on the clock or on a finite
memory is worthless. The long-standing natural open problem has been whether every
strategy that depends just on the clock and a finite memory is worthless. We prove
that there is such a strategy that is ε-optimal. In fact, we show that just two
states of memory are sufficient.\r\n"

text: 'The transactional conflict problem arises in transactional systems whenever
two or more concurrent transactions clash on a data item. While the standard solution
to such conflicts is to immediately abort one of the transactions, some practical
systems consider the alternative of delaying conflict resolution for a short interval,
which may allow one of the transactions to commit. The challenge in the transactional
conflict problem is to choose the optimal length of this delay interval so as
to minimize the overall running time penalty for the conflicting transactions.
In this paper, we propose a family of optimal online algorithms for the transactional
conflict problem. Specifically, we consider variants of this problem which arise
in different implementations of transactional systems, namely "requestor wins''''
and "requestor aborts'''' implementations: in the former, the recipient of a coherence
request is aborted, whereas in the latter, it is the requestor which has to abort.
Both strategies are implemented by real systems. We show that the requestor aborts
case can be reduced to a classic instance of the ski rental problem, while the
requestor wins case leads to a new version of this classical problem, for which
we derive optimal deterministic and randomized algorithms. Moreover, we prove
that, under a simplified adversarial model, our algorithms are constant-competitive
with the offline optimum in terms of throughput. We validate our algorithmic results
empirically through a hardware simulation of hardware transactional memory (HTM),
showing that our algorithms can lead to non-trivial performance improvements for
classic concurrent data structures.'

Tardos,J. ACM, 57 (2010), 11] to more general discrete spaces. At each step the
method picks aflaw present in the current state and goes to a new state according
to some prespecified probabilitydistribution (which depends on the current state
and the selected flaw). However, the recent formu-lation is less flexible than
the Moser–Tardos method since it requires a specific flaw selection rule,whereas
the algorithm of Moser and Tardos allows an arbitrary rule (and thus can potentially
beimplemented more efficiently). We formulate a new “commutativity” condition
and prove that it issufficient for an arbitrary rule to work. It also enables
an efficient parallelization under an additionalassumption. We then show that
existing resampling oracles for perfect matchings and permutationsdo satisfy this
condition.

text: A standard design pattern found in many concurrent data structures, such as
hash tables or ordered containers, is an alternation of parallelizable sections
that incur no data conflicts and critical sections that must run sequentially
and are protected with locks. A lock can be viewed as a queue that arbitrates
the order in which the critical sections are executed, and a natural question
is whether we can use stochastic analysis to predict the resulting throughput.
As a preliminary evidence to the affirmative, we describe a simple model that
can be used to predict the throughput of coarse-grained lock-based algorithms.
We show that our model works well for CLH lock, and we expect it to work for other
popular lock designs such as TTAS, MCS, etc.

text: "We consider a Wigner-type ensemble, i.e. large hermitian N×N random matrices
H=H∗ with centered independent entries and with a general matrix of variances
Sxy=\U0001D53C∣∣Hxy∣∣2. The norm of H is asymptotically given by the maximum of
the support of the self-consistent density of states. We establish a bound on
this maximum in terms of norms of powers of S that substantially improves the
earlier bound 2∥S∥1/2∞ given in [O. Ajanki, L. Erdős and T. Krüger, Universality
for general Wigner-type matrices, Prob. Theor. Rel. Fields169 (2017) 667–727].
The key element of the proof is an effective Markov chain approximation for the
contributions of the weighted Dyck paths appearing in the iterative solution of
the corresponding Dyson equation."

text: G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) form the largest receptor family, relay
environmental stimuli to changes in cell behavior and represent prime drug targets.
Many GPCRs are classified as orphan receptors because of the limited knowledge
on their ligands and coupling to cellular signaling machineries. Here, we engineer
a library of 63 chimeric receptors that contain the signaling domains of human
orphan and understudied GPCRs functionally linked to the light-sensing domain
of rhodopsin. Upon stimulation with visible light, we identify activation of canonical
cell signaling pathways, including cAMP-, Ca2+-, MAPK/ERK-, and Rho-dependent
pathways, downstream of the engineered receptors. For the human pseudogene GPR33,
we resurrect a signaling function that supports its hypothesized role as a pathogen
entry site. These results demonstrate that substituting unknown chemical activators
with a light switch can reveal information about protein function and provide
an optically controlled protein library for exploring the physiology and therapeutic
potential of understudied GPCRs.

text: We propose FlexMaps, a novel framework for fabricating smooth shapes out of
flat, flexible panels with tailored mechanical properties. We start by mapping
the 3D surface onto a 2D domain as in traditional UV mapping to design a set of
deformable flat panels called FlexMaps. For these panels, we design and obtain
specific mechanical properties such that, once they are assembled, the static
equilibrium configuration matches the desired 3D shape. FlexMaps can be fabricated
from an almost rigid material, such as wood or plastic, and are made flexible
in a controlled way by using computationally designed spiraling microstructures.

text: We study a quantum impurity possessing both translational and internal rotational
degrees of freedom interacting with a bosonic bath. Such a system corresponds
to a “rotating polaron,” which can be used to model, e.g., a rotating molecule
immersed in an ultracold Bose gas or superfluid helium. We derive the Hamiltonian
of the rotating polaron and study its spectrum in the weak- and strong-coupling
regimes using a combination of variational, diagrammatic, and mean-field approaches.
We reveal how the coupling between linear and angular momenta affects stable quasiparticle
states, and demonstrate that internal rotation leads to an enhanced self-localization
in the translational degrees of freedom.

text: In the present work, we detail a fast and simple solution-based method to
synthesize hexagonal SnSe2 nanoplates (NPLs) and their use to produce crystallographically
textured SnSe2 nanomaterials. We also demonstrate that the same strategy can be
used to produce orthorhombic SnSe nanostructures and nanomaterials. NPLs are grown
through a screw dislocation-driven mechanism. This mechanism typically results
in pyramidal structures, but we demonstrate here that the growth from multiple
dislocations results in flower-like structures. Crystallographically textured
SnSe2 bulk nanomaterials obtained from the hot pressing of these SnSe2 structures
display highly anisotropic charge and heat transport properties and thermoelectric
(TE) figures of merit limited by relatively low electrical conductivities. To
improve this parameter, SnSe2 NPLs are blended here with metal nanoparticles.
The electrical conductivities of the blends are significantly improved with respect
to bare SnSe2 NPLs, what translates into a three-fold increase of the TE Figure
of merit, reaching unprecedented ZT values up to 0.65.
