On the Complexity of Neural Computation in Superposition by Adler, Micah, Shavit, Nir

“…Conversely, we show a nearly tight upper bound: logical operations like pair- wise AND can be computed using O(√(m′) log m′) neurons and O(m′ log^2 m′) parameters. …”

Shortest paths without a map, but with an entropic regularizer by Bubeck, S, Coester, C, Rabani, Y

“…The deterministic competitive ratio for this problem was soon discovered to be exponential in 𝑘, and it is now nearly resolved: it lies between Ω(2 𝑘 ) and 𝑂(𝑘2 𝑘). …”

New use of global warming potentials to compare cumulative and short-lived climate pollutants by Allen, MR, Fuglestvedt, JS, Shine, KP, Reisinger, A, Pierrehumbert, R, Forster, PM

“…If the overall goal of climate policy is to limit peak warming, GWP100 therefore overstates the importance of current SLCP emissions unless stringent and immediate reductions of all climate pollutants result in temperatures nearing their peak soon after mid-century7, 8, 9, 10, which may be necessary to limit warming to “well below 2 °C” (ref. 1). …”

Introduction - Oxford Energy Forum – Issue, 96

“…Oil has defined the modern-day development of the Gulf region in a way seen in no other place in the world; together, the six members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), are home to around a third of known global reserves of oil, and nearly a quarter of its natural gas. Saudi Arabia remains the world’s most important producer of conventional oil, and continues to hold the majority of the world’s spare capacity, while Qatar has become the world’s largest producer of liquefied natural gas (LNG). …”

Higher education and public good in England by Marginson, S, Yang, L

“…There were 24 semi-structured interviews, with middle and senior manager-leaders in two universities and policy professionals. Nearly all advocated a broad public good role, in contrast to policy in England, and provided examples of public outcomes in higher education. …”

Search for CP violation in D0 → K0 SK0 S decays in proton–proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV by CMS Collaboration

“…The analysis uses a dedicated data set that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 41.6 fb - 1 , which consists of about 10 billion events containing a pair of b hadrons, nearly all of which decay to charm hadrons. The flavor of the neutral D meson is determined by the pion charge in the reconstructed decays D ∗ + → D 0 π + and D ∗ - → D ¯ 0 π - . …”

Comparative study of composite scarf and strap joints for equivalent repair signature under uniaxial tension by Srinivasan, Dharun Vadugappatty, Padma, S. Ravisankar, Idapalapati, Sridhar

“…Scarf joints are preferred in aerospace composite repairs that offer better strength, flushed surface and nearly uniform shear and peel stress distribution along the bond length. …”

Femtosecond laser-induced nano-joining of volatile tellurium nanotube memristor by Yu, Yongchao, Joshi, Pooran, Bridges, Denzel, Fieser, David, Hu, Anming

“…Compared to previous metal oxide nanowire-based memristors, the reported Te nanotube memristor system displayed a nearly two-order stronger current response. The research displays that the multileveled resistance state is rewritable with a negative bias.…”
