Abstract

Sparsification via neglecting far-field coupling (S-NFC) enables fast full-wave radar-cross-section analysis of large-scale chaff clouds by retaining only significant local electromagnetic interactions. This letter further accelerates S-NFC by concatenating the retained off-diagonal interaction blocks associated with each receiving chaff element and applying a joint low-rank factorization with a shared receiving-side basis. Exact self interactions are preserved, while repeated chaff templates reuse precomputed lower--upper factorizations of the self-interaction blocks. The compressed formulation reduces retained-coupling storage and matrix--vector multiplication cost and also decreases the number of iterations required by the generalized conjugate residual solver. Numerical tests with 100,000 chaff elements demonstrate sub-$1\%$ complex-far-field error for low-rank approximations in sparse regimes and identify a practical self-only limit at sufficiently large mean spacing. For a one-million-chaff plume, the proposed compressed S-NFC achieves a $6.92\times$ end-to-end speedup over uncompressed S-NFC while storing only $6.60\%$ of the retained coupling, with a complex-far-field error of $0.253\%$.

Geometric integrators for adiabatically closed simple thermodynamic systems

A variational formulation for non-equilibrium thermodynamics was developed by Gay-Balmaz and Yoshimura. In a recent article, the first two authors of the present paper introduced partially cosymplectic structures as a geometric framework for thermodynamic systems, recovering the evolution equations obtained variationally. In this paper, we develop a discrete variational principle for adiabatically closed simple thermodynamic systems, which can be utilised to construct numerical integrators for the dynamics of such systems. The effectiveness of our method is illustrated with several examples.

Why Multi-Layer Message Passing Works: Completeness Theory for Graph Neural Network Interatomic Potentials

We prove that the Hypergraph Neural Network, an invariant architecture with 3-body message passing, is a universal approximator for potential energy surfaces. Our main contribution is a multi-layer completeness theory. We show that $L$ layers of message passing on sparse, cutoff-based graphs achieve the same representational power as having access to the full $L$-hop neighborhood, provided the configurations are generic, satisfy an overlap condition and a connectivity condition. This provides the first rigorous justification for the common practice of using multi-layer message passing with a per-layer cutoff smaller than the physical interaction range, the setting used by virtually all practical graph neural network based machine-learned interatomic potentials. As immediate consequences, we show that both DPA3 and CHGNet architectures inherit universal approximation.

Stochastic Optimization of Tree Tensor Networks

Tensor networks, originally developed for quantum many-body physics, are promising models for machine learning. We derive stochastic Riemannian optimizers for tree tensor networks (TTNs) on both their parameter and quotient manifolds, including adaptive and learning-rate-free schemes suitable for minibatch training. Using a hybrid CNN-TTN architecture, we evaluate the methods on Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR10, and Imagenette. The proposed optimizers achieve predictive performance comparable to unconstrained optimization while enabling numerically stable downstream compression.
