Lefschetz-thimble analysis of the sign problem in one-site fermion model by Yuya Tanizaki, Yoshimasa Hidaka, Tomoya Hayata

“…Since the one-site Hubbard model shows a non-analytic behavior at the zero temperature and its path integral expression has the sign problem, this toy model is a good testing ground for an idea or a technique to attack the sign problem. …”

On Hölder Projective Divergences by Frank Nielsen, Ke Sun, Stéphane Marchand-Maillet

“…Finally, we show how to compute statistical Hölder centroids with respect to those divergences and carry out center-based clustering toy experiments on a set of Gaussian distributions which demonstrate empirically that symmetrized Hölder divergences outperform the symmetric Cauchy–Schwarz divergence.…”

Maze Solving by a Quantum Walk with Sinks and Self-Loops: Numerical Analysis by Leo Matsuoka, Kenta Yuki, Hynek Lavička, Etsuo Segawa

“…We present a method for finding the shortest path on a maze consisting of a bipartite graph using a discrete-time quantum walk, which is a toy model of many kinds of quantum systems. By evolving the amplitude distribution according to the quantum walk on a kind of network with sinks, which is the exit of the amplitude, the amplitude distribution remains eternally on the paths between two self-loops indicating the start and the goal of the maze. …”

Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and Quantum Transport in Multi-Terminal Conductors by Nikolay M. Shubin, Alexander A. Gorbatsevich, Gennadiy Ya. Krasnikov

“…The main conclusions are illustratively exemplified by some three-terminal toy models. For instance, the influence of the tunneling coupling to the gate electrode is discussed for a model of quantum interference transistor. …”

Semi‐Automatic Tuning of Coupled Climate Models With Multiple Intrinsic Timescales: Lessons Learned From the Lorenz96 Model by Redouane Lguensat, Julie Deshayes, Homer Durand, Venkatramani Balaji

“…Abstract The objective of this study is to evaluate the potential for History Matching (HM) to tune a climate system with multi‐scale dynamics. By considering a toy climate model, namely, the two‐scale Lorenz96 model and producing experiments in perfect‐model setting, we explore in detail how several built‐in choices need to be carefully tested. …”

HoberUI: An Exploration of Kinematic Structures as Interactive Input Devices by Gvidas Razevicius, Anne Roudaut, Abhijit Karnik

“…We present HoberUI, a bimanual symmetric tangible interface with 7 degrees of freedom and explore its use for manipulating 3D environments. We base this on the toy version of the deployable structure called the Hoberman sphere, which consists of pantographic scissor mechanisms and is capable of homogeneous shrinkage and expansion. …”

A Monolithic and a Partitioned, Reduced Basis Method for Fluid–Structure Interaction Problems by Monica Nonino, Francesco Ballarin, Gianluigi Rozza

“…We then present another reduction technique that is based on a partitioned (or segregated) procedure: the fluid and the solid problems are solved separately and then coupled using a fixed point strategy. The toy problem that we consider is based on the Turek–Hron benchmark test case, with a fluid Reynolds number <inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>R</mi><mi>e</mi><mo>=</mo><mn>100</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>.…”

Solitonic ground states in (color) superconductivity by Nickel, Marcel Dominik Johannes, Buballa, Michael

“…As a first application, we calculate real gap functions with general one-dimensional periodic structures for a 3+1-dimensional toy model having two fermion species. The resulting solutions are energetically favored against homogeneous superconducting (BCS) and normal conducting phases in a window for the chemical potential difference δμ which is about twice as wide as that for the most simple plane-wave ansatz (“Fulde-Ferrell phase”). …”

Beyond early linguistic competence : development of children's ability to interpret adjectives flexibly by Gao, Helena Hong, Zelazo, Philip David, Sharpe, Dean, Mashari, Azad

“…In Experiment 1, children were required to interpret big and little both in reference to a basic level kind (e.g., “This is a big marble”) and in reference to a superordinate kind (e.g., “This is a little toy”). Experiment 2 examined 3-year-olds’ flexible interpretation of big and little with respect to a medium-sized stimulus that was alternately compared with a smaller stimulus and a larger stimulus (e.g., “Which one of these two circles is the big one?”). …”
