Topological phase transition induced by gain and loss in a photonic Chern insulator by Teo, Hau Tian, Xue, Haoran, Zhang, Baile

“…We present a design of a non-Hermitian photonic Chern insulator whose band topology can be tuned via gain and loss. It is found that, by continuously varying the gain and loss parameter, a topological phase transition can take place in the photonic crystal, accompanied by the closing and reopening of a Dirac cone. …”

Do investors over-anticipate? : Evidence from their reactions to gain and loss contingencies by Xu, Tu

“…I find that, inconsistent with expected utility theory but consistent with findings from psychology, investors raise a firm’s valuation in response to a gain contingency as if the gain contingency has realized its best possible outcome. …”

Secrecy gain of Gaussian wiretap codes from 2- and 3-modular lattices by Lin, Fuchun, Oggier, Frederique

“…Lattice coding over a Gaussian wiretap channel is considered with respect to a lattice invariant called the secrecy gain, which was introduced in [1] to characterize the confusion that a chosen lattice can cause at the eavesdropper: the higher the secrecy gain of the lattice, the more confusion. …”

The enduring importance of the “fine cuts” approach to psychology: EPS Mid-Career Award Lecture 2024 by Bird, G

“…In this article, I take a selective review of work undertaken by my colleagues and me in an attempt to show the enduring importance of the “fine cuts” approach to psychology. This approach highlights the importance of causal, specific, and falsifiable psychological models, and the rigorous experimental designs needed to test them. …”
