Affective Image Manipulation (AIM) aims to evoke specific emotions through targeted editing. Current image editing benchmarks primarily focus on object-level modifications in general scenarios, lackin…
In a recent preprint, Mike Cummings showed that the smooth components of suitably parametrized Springer fibers are in bijection with contracted, fully reduced Pl\"ucker degree-two $\mathfrak{sl}_r$-we…
We determine the full nim-value structure of additive subtraction games in the {\em primitive quadratic} regime. The problem appears in Winning Ways by Berlekamp et al. in 1982; it includes a closed f…
Market-order flow in financial markets exhibits long-range correlations. This is a widely known stylised fact of financial markets. A popular hypothesis for this stylised fact comes from the Lillo-Mik…
We investigate solutions to a coupled system of partial differential equations that describe a multilayered filtration system. Namely, we study the interaction of a viscous incompressible flow with bu…
We present the chemical abundances of Fe, alpha- and neutron-capture elements in 12 metal-poor Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) giant stars, observed with the high-resolution spectrographs UVES/VLT and MI…
We present a detailed chemical abundance analysis of the three brightest known stars from each of the Turranburra and Willka Yaku stellar streams using high-resolution Magellan/MIKE spectra. Abundance…
Mike West is currently the Arts & Sciences Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Statistics and Decision Sciences at Duke University. Mike's research in Bayesian analysis spans multiple interlinked area…
We present Egent, an autonomous agent that combines classical multi-Voigt profile fitting with large language model (LLM) visual inspection and iterative refinement. The fitting engine is built from s…
Predicting ocean wave behavior is challenging due to the difficulty in choosing suitable numerical models among many with varying capabilities. This review examines the development and performance of …
Understanding affect is central to anticipating human behavior, yet current egocentric vision benchmarks largely ignore the person's emotional states that shape their decisions and actions. Existing t…
Stellar-mass black holes (BHs) above $30 M_\odot$ are predicted to form from low-metallicity progenitors, but direct detections of such systems in the Milky Way remain scarce. Motivated by the recent …
In this work we derived [K/Fe] and [Mg/Fe] abundance ratios for six stars of the old globular cluster NGC 1786 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We employed high-resolution spectra acquired with the MIKE…
High-resolution spectra provide a powerful tool in studying the associated absorption lines (AALs) in quasars. We present a case study of the quasar J014741-030247 at $z \sim$ 4.75, which hosts comple…
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the dust of BP Tau's protoplanetary disk. We use new optical spectra of BP Tau, taken with the Magellan/MIKE spectrograph in tandem with archival UV and mid-i…
Given an orthogonally invariant probability measure on $GL(d,\mathbb{R})$, Mike Shub asked whether the average product of the $k$ top eigenvalues in the ensemble can be lower bounded by the average di…
We study piecewise linear Markov maps, with countable Markov partitions, inspired by a problem of the Mikl\'os Schweitzer competition in 2022. We introduce $\ell$-Markov partitions and apply ideas of …
We use Magellan/MIKE echelle spectroscopy to conduct an in-depth chemodynamical analysis of the most luminous star-forming region within the metal-poor starburst dwarf galaxy CGCG 007-025. Leveraging …
We study piecewise linear Markov maps, with countable Markov partitions, inspired by a problem of the Mikl\'os Schweitzer competition of the J\'anos Bolyai Mathematical Society in 2022. We introduce $…
Motivated by the question of Mikael de la Salle, we investigate the problem of the existence of equivalent strictly convex norms on Banach spaces that are invariant with respect to an action of a grou…
