The Very Low Albedo of an Extrasolar Planet: MOST Spacebased Photometry of HD 209458
Measuring the albedo of an extrasolar planet provides insights into its atmospheric composition and its global thermal properties, including heat dissipation and weather patterns. Such a measurement requires very precise photometry of a transiting system sampling fully many phases of the secondary eclipse. Spacebased o...

A Support Theorem for the Geodesic Ray Transform of Functions
Let $(M,g)$ be a simple Riemannian manifold. Under the assumption that the metric $g$ is real-analytic, it is shown that if the geodesic ray transform of a function $f\in L^{2}(M)$ vanishes on an appropriate open set of geodesics, then $f=0$ on the set of points lying on these geodesics. The approach is based on a micr...

Sparsistency and rates of convergence in large covariance matrix estimation
This paper studies the sparsistency and rates of convergence for estimating sparse covariance and precision matrices based on penalized likelihood with nonconvex penalty functions. Here, sparsistency refers to the property that all parameters that are zero are actually estimated as zero with probability tending to one....

Effects of Scale-Dependent Non-Gaussianity on Cosmological Structures
The detection of primordial non-Gaussianity could provide a powerful means to test various inflationary scenarios. Although scale-invariant non-Gaussianity (often described by the $f_{NL}$ formalism) is currently best constrained by the CMB, single-field models with changing sound speed can have strongly scale-dependen...

Reddening, Colour and Metallicity of the M31 Globular Cluster System
Using metallicities from the literature, combined with the Revised Bologna Catalogue of photometric data for M31 clusters and cluster candidates (the latter of which is the most comprehensive catalogue of M31 clusters currently available, including 337 confirmed globular clusters -- GCs -- and 688 GC candidates), we de...

Perturbation theory and excursion set estimates of the probability distribution function of dark matter, and a method for reconstructing the initial distribution function
Nonlinear evolution can sometimes be modelled by a deterministic mapping from initial to final of the local smoothed overdensity. Perturbation theory methods base on this deterministic and local mapping and ignore the 'cloud-in-cloud' effect, while the excursion set approach methods take this nonlocality into account. ...

On the Ramsey multiplicity of complete graphs
We show that, for $n$ large, there must exist at least \[\frac{n^t}{C^{(1+o(1))t^2}}\] monochromatic $K_t$s in any two-colouring of the edges of $K_n$, where $C \approx 2.18$ is an explicitly defined constant. The old lower bound, due to Erd\H{o}s \cite{E62}, and based upon the standard bounds for Ramsey's theorem, is ...

Identification, Classifications, and Absolute Properties of 773 Eclipsing Binaries Found in the TrES Survey
In recent years we have witnessed an explosion of photometric time-series data, collected for the purpose of finding a small number of rare sources, such as transiting extrasolar planets and gravitational microlenses. Once combed, these data are often set aside, and are not further searched for the many other variable ...

Going Beyond Bell's Theorem
Bell's Theorem proved that one cannot in general reproduce the results of quantum theory with a classical, deterministic local model. However, Einstein originally considered the case where one could define an 'element of reality', namely for the much simpler case where one could predict with certainty a definite outcom...

Differentiability of the volume of a region enclosed by level sets
The level of a function f on an n-dimensional space encloses a region. The volume of a region between two such levels depends on both levels. Fixing one of them the volume becomes a function of the remaining level. We show that if the function f is smooth, the volume function is again smooth for regular values of f. Fo...

Quantum Simulated Annealing
We develop a quantum algorithm to solve combinatorial optimization problems through quantum simulation of a classical annealing process. Our algorithm combines techniques from quantum walks, quantum phase estimation, and quantum Zeno effect. It can be viewed as a quantum analogue of the discrete-time Markov chain Monte...

On Using Unsatisfiability for Solving Maximum Satisfiability
Maximum Satisfiability (MaxSAT) is a well-known optimization pro- blem, with several practical applications. The most widely known MAXS AT algorithms are ineffective at solving hard problems instances from practical application domains. Recent work proposed using efficient Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) solvers for solvi...

In particular we constrain the optical depth ...

Opportunistic Relaying in Wireless Networks

This setup has attracted significant attention and several relaying protocols have been reported in the literature. However, most of the proposed solu...

We present evidence for the detection of primordial non-Gaussianity of the local type (fNL), using the temperature information of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) from the WMAP 3-year data. We employ the bispectrum estimator of non-Gaussianity described in (Yadav et al. 2007) which allows us to analyze the entiret...

The colour-lightcurve shape relation of Type Ia supernovae and the reddening law
A study of the time sequence of optical colours of a large sample of nearby Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is presented. We study the dependence of the colour time evolution with respect to the lightcurve shape, parametrized by the stretch factor. We fit the spectral template that minimizes the colour dispersion in SNe Ia...
