Degeneracy along the sensorimotor hierarchy: motor control within a framework larger than redundancy
Motor control has described the surplus of solutions available to the nervous system as redundancy, a term that names duplication: interchangeable elements, robust to loss but incapable of differential adaptation. Biology has had a second term for twenty-five years. Degeneracy names elements that are not interchangeable and are nonetheless isofunctional with respect to a given output, and it supports adaptability, since non-identical elements necessarily diverge in some context.

pyAvalanches: A Python Package for Analyzing Spatiotemporal Propagation in Neuronal Avalanches
The analysis of neuronal avalanches offers insights into brain dynamics utilizing the framework of criticality, but the reproducibility and comparability of studies are limited by the use of fragmented, lab-specific scripts. To address this issue, we introduce pyAvalanches, an open-source Python package providing a standardized, end-to-end pipeline for avalanche analysis from electrophysiological recordings (e.g., electroencephalography-EEG). Starting from the detection of neuronal avalanches th

The Elizabeth Holmes documentary grabbed our attention. Now it has to keep it
Sometimes the secret to promoting a new movie is an actual secret. The latest example, You Can See Everything, is taking that strategy to an extreme.

After all, few would have predicted that arguably the buzziest property to emerge from the Telluride Film Festival would be a three-hour documentary about Elizabeth Holmes. The infamous Theranos founder and the story of her fraud convictions have already been the subject of tw

It was a sign that, financially at least, movie theaters are looking much healthier than they did a few years ago. Still, the recovery is not as straightforward as the box office numbers suggest. This summer brought in $4.76 billion at the North American box offi

General Quantification of Covariate and Concept Shifts
Generalization under distribution shift remains a core challenge in modern machine learning, yet existing learning bound theory is limited to narrow, idealized settings and is non-estimable from samples. In this paper, we bridge the gap between theory and practical applications. We first show that existing definition of concept shift breaks when the source and target supports mismatch. Leveraging entropic optimal transport, we propose a key notion: $γ^{*}\!$-concept shifts, and derive a general
Effective Ionic Valence and Local Magnetic Moment in Kagome Superconductors
In order to understand the unexpected similarity and the correlated behavior in kagome superconductor families AV$_3$Sb$_5$ (A = K, Rb, Cs) and ATi$_3$Bi$_5$ (A = Rb, Cs), we investigate the Hartree-scale local electronic structure of these systems. Our result indicates that V and Ti ions are both of 2+ valence such that the corresponding itinerant carrier densities are similar, and the difference in electron count is instead reflected in their quantum fluctuating ionic magnetic moments. However

Theoretical Aspects of Direct Waves in Kerr Black Holes: Pole-Splitting Method for Ringdown Analysis
We formulate the theoretical aspects of direct waves (DWs) in the case of extreme-mass merger. A DW is a source-driven waveform characterized by a complex frequency $ω_{\rm G}$, which reflects the orbital motion of the particle in the vicinity of the black hole, including a part of the orbit inside the ergoregion: its real part is governed by frame dragging and its imaginary part by the redshift of the source. Using the Green's function technique, we derive the source-driven frequency $ω_{\rm G}

The end of driving culture
Ask someone about their travels, and one of the first topics they’ll remark on is how the people, wherever they were visiting, drove their cars. There are New York drivers, aggressive, impatient, and honky. There are California drivers, well adapted to freeway-coasting bumper-to-bumper congestion. In Florida they drive fast; in Maine they drive slow. This is by no means limited to the United States. In Cairo, a city whose streets operate almost entirely without signals, drivers have learned to o

GPU-CFR: 80x Faster Counterfactual Regret Minimization by Compiling the Game to Static Dataflow and CUDA Graph Replay
Counterfactual regret minimization (CFR) is one of the few large numerical workloads that still runs faster on CPUs than on GPUs. Each iteration sweeps a game tree with up to billions of states in millions of small, interdependent gather and scatter steps issued through a generic tree interface. On a GPU every kernel finishes in microseconds, so kernel launches and framework dispatch dominate the run time, and prior GPU implementations have lost to optimized CPU code. We observe that for a fixed
A Multi-Axion Ladder Across Cosmic History: From Inflation, BBN, and Early Dark Energy to Late-Time Accelerated Expansion
What if dark energy is recurrent throughout cosmic history? In this picture, episodes of scalar-field dark energy become less surprising and more natural features of cosmic evolution. We construct a homogeneous multi-axion cosmology with a transient contribution during Big Bang nucleosynthesis, two early dark energy components before recombination, and a thawing field that supplies the present dark-energy density. As Hubble friction weakens, the fields begin to roll at successive epochs set by t
