Supercurrent mediated by helical edge modes in bilayer graphene

Kavli Affiliate: Srijit Goswami | First 5 Authors: Prasanna Rout, Nikos Papadopoulos, Fernando Peñaranda, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Bilayer graphene encapsulated in tungsten diselenide can host a weak topological phase with pairs of helical edge states. The electrical tunability of this phase makes it an ideal platform to investigate unique topological effects at […]

Improved Bounds for Single-Nomination Impartial Selection

Kavli Affiliate: Felix Fischer | First 5 Authors: Javier Cembrano, Felix Fischer, Max Klimm, , | Summary: We give new bounds for the single-nomination model of impartial selection, a problem proposed by Holzman and Moulin (Econometrica, 2013). A selection mechanism, which may be randomized, selects one individual from a group of $n$ based on nominations […]

Unconfounded Propensity Estimation for Unbiased Ranking

Kavli Affiliate: Dan Luo | First 5 Authors: Dan Luo, Lixin Zou, Qingyao Ai, Zhiyu Chen, Chenliang Li | Summary: The goal of unbiased learning to rank (ULTR) is to leverage implicit user feedback for optimizing learning-to-rank systems. Among existing solutions, automatic ULTR algorithms that jointly learn user bias models (i.e., propensity models) with unbiased […]

Asymmetric node placement in fiber-based quantum networks

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Guus Avis, Robert Knegjens, Anders S. Sørensen, Stephanie Wehner, | Summary: Restrictions imposed by existing infrastructure can make it hard to ensure an even spacing between the nodes of future fiber-based quantum networks. We here investigate the negative effects of asymmetric node placement by considering separately the […]

Breakdown of helical edge state topologically protected conductance in time-reversal-breaking excitonic insulators

Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Yan-Qi Wang, Michał Papaj, Joel E. Moore, , | Summary: Gapless helical edge modes are a hallmark of the quantum spin Hall effect. Protected by time-reversal symmetry, each edge contributes a quantized zero-temperature conductance quantum $G_0 equiv e^2/h$. However, the experimentally observed conductance in WTe$_2$ decreases […]

A Conditional Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model for Radio Interferometric Image Reconstruction

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors:Ruoqi Wang, Zhuoyang Chen, Qiong Luo, Feng Wang | Summary: In radio astronomy, signals from radio telescopes are transformed into images of observed celestial objects, or sources. However, these images, called dirty images, contain real sources as well as artifacts due to signal sparsity and other factors. Therefore, […]
