Distinguishing humans from computers in the game of go: A complex network approach

C. Coquidé 1 Bertrand Georgeot 1 Olivier Giraud 2 EPL – Europhysics Letters, European Physical Society/EDP Sciences/Società Italiana di Fisica/IOP Publishing, 2017, 119 (4), pp.48001. 〈10.1209/0295-5075/119/48001〉 We compare complex networks built from the game of go and obtained from databases of human-played games with those obtained from computer-played games. Our investigations show that statistical features […]

Convex hulls of random walks in higher dimensions: A large-deviation study

Hendrik Schawe 1 Alexander K. Hartmann 1 Satya N. Majumdar 2 Physical Review E , American Physical Society (APS), 2017, 96 (6), 〈10.1103/PhysRevE.96.062101〉 The distribution of the hypervolume $V$ and surface $\partial V$ of convex hulls of (multiple) random walks in higher dimensions are determined numerically, especially containing probabilities far smaller than $P = 10^{-1000}$

Conformal field theory of critical Casimir forces between surfaces with alternating boundary conditions in two dimensions

Jerome Dubail 1 Raoul Santachiara 2 Thorsten Emig 3, 2 Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, IOP Science, 2017, pp.033201 Systems as diverse as binary mixtures and inclusions in biological membranes, and many more, can be described effectively by interacting spins. When the critical fluctuations in these systems are constrained by boundary conditions, critical

Configurational and energy landscape in one-dimensional Coulomb systems

Lucas Varela 1 Gabriel Téllez 1 Emmanuel Trizac 2 Physical Review E , American Physical Society (APS), 2017, 95 (2), pp.022112 We study a one dimensional Coulomb system, where two charged colloids are neutralized by a collection of point counterions, with global neutrality. Temperature being given, two situations are addressed: the colloids are either kept

Cleaning large correlation matrices: tools from random matrix theory

Joël Bun 1, 2 Jean-Philippe Bouchaud 2 Marc Potters 2 Physics Reports, Elsevier, 2017, 666, pp.1 This review covers recent results concerning the estimation of large covariance matrices using tools from Random Matrix Theory (RMT). We introduce several RMT methods and analytical techniques, such as the Replica formalism and Free Probability, with an emphasis on

Asymptotically optimal control for a simplest distributed system

Alexander Ovseevich 1 Aleksey Fedorov 2 Доклады Академии Наук / Doklady Mathematics, MAIK Nauka/Interperiodica, 2017, 95 (2), pp.194 – 197 We study the problem of the minimum-time damping of a closed string under a bounded load, applied at a single fixed point. A constructive feedback control law is designed, which allows bringing the system to

Archive ouverte HAL – Statistics of fermions in a d-dimensional box near a hard wall

Bertrand Lacroix-A-Chez-Toine 1 Pierre Le Doussal 2 Satya Majumdar 1 Grégory Schehr 1 EPL, 2017, 120 (1), pp.10006. 〈10.1209/0295-5075/120/10006〉 We study N noninteracting fermions in a domain bounded by a hard-wall potential in dimensions. We show that for large N, the correlations at the edge of the Fermi gas (near the wall) at zero temperature
