Maximally-Localized Exciton Wannier Functions for Solids

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Jonah B. Haber, Diana Y. Qiu, Felipe H. da Jornada, Jeffrey B. Neaton, | Summary: We introduce a maximally-localized Wannier function representation of Bloch excitons, two-particle correlated electron-hole excitations, in crystalline solids, where the excitons are maximally-localized with respect to an average electron-hole coordinate in real […]

A semi-automated method for quantifying optokinetic reflex tracking acuity

Kavli Affiliate: Alex Kolodkin | Authors: James Kenneth Kiraly, Scott C Harris, Timour Al-Khindi, Felice Dunn and Alex L Kolodkin | Summary: The study of murine behavioral responses to visual stimuli is a key component of understanding mammalian visual circuitry. One notable response is the optokinetic reflex (OKR), a highly conserved innate behavior necessary for […]

The Cepheid Extragalactic Distance Scale: Past, Present and Future

Kavli Affiliate: Wendy L. Freedman | First 5 Authors: Wendy L. Freedman, Barry F. Madore, , , | Summary: Cepheids have been the cornerstone of the extragalactic distance scale for a century. With high-quality data, these luminous supergiants exhibit a small dispersion in their Leavitt (period-luminosity) relation, particularly at longer wavelengths, and few methods rival […]

Fractional revival on semi-Cayley graphs over abelian groups

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, Ligong Wang, Xiaogang Liu, , | Summary: In this paper, we investigate the existence of fractional revival on semi-Cayley graphs over finite abelian groups. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for semi-Cayley graphs over finite abelian groups admitting fractional revival. We also show that […]

ES-MVSNet: Efficient Framework for End-to-end Self-supervised Multi-View Stereo

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Qiang Zhou, Chaohui Yu, Jingliang Li, Yuang Liu, Jing Wang | Summary: Compared to the multi-stage self-supervised multi-view stereo (MVS) method, the end-to-end (E2E) approach has received more attention due to its concise and efficient training pipeline. Recent E2E self-supervised MVS approaches have integrated third-party models (such […]
