Frustrated magnets in the limit of infinite dimensions: Dynamics and disorder-free glass transition

We study the statistical mechanics and the equilibrium dynamics of a system of classical Heisenberg spins with frustrated interactions on a d -dimensional simple hypercubic lattice, in the limit of infinite dimensionality d -> infinity . In the analysis we ...

An instance-based learning approach for evaluating the perception of ride-hailing waiting time variability

Michel Bierlaire, Nejc Gerzinic

Understanding user’s perception of service variability is essential to discern their overall perception of any type of (transport) service. We study the perception of waiting time variability for ride-hailing services. We carried out a stated preference su ...

A dynamic attractor network model of memory formation, reinforcement and forgetting

Wulfram Gerstner, Chiara Gastaldi, Marta Boscaglia

Empirical evidence shows that memories that are frequently revisited are easy to recall, and that familiar items involve larger hippocampal representations than less familiar ones. In line with these observations, here we develop a modelling approach to pr ...

Computational models of episodic-like memory in food-caching birds

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea

How the 'what', 'where', and 'when' of past experiences are stored in episodic memories and retrieved for suitable decisions remains unclear. In an effort to address these questions, the authors present computational models of neural networks that behave l ...

Bodily self-consciousness as a framework to link sensory information and self-related components of episodic memory: behavioral, neuroimaging, and clinical evidence

Nathalie Heidi Meyer

The recollection of sensory information and subjective experience related to a personal past event depends on our episodic memory (EM). At the neural level, EM retrieval is linked with the reinstatement of hippocampal activity thought to recollect the sens ...

Numerical investigation of bound states in quantum magnets

Mithilesh Nayak

Bound-states of particles are an interesting problem in quantum mechanics dating back to 1931 Bethe's solution of spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain. These exotic composite states are realized in quantum magnets and are detectable in inelastic neutron scattering (I ...

Engineering random spin models with atoms in a high-finesse cavity

Jean-Philippe Brantut, Nick Jacob Sauerwein, Tigrane Arthur Cantat Moltrecht

Random spin models play a key role in our understanding of disorder and complex many-body systems. Two all-to-all interacting, disordered models have now been realized using a cavity quantum electrodynamics platform. ...

Diffuse spin waves and classical spin liquid behavior in the kagome antiferromagnet chromium jarosite, KCr3(OD)6(SO4)2

Ivica Zivkovic, Sofie Janas

The dynamics of the S = 3/2 kagome antiferromagnet chromium jarosite, KCr3(OD)(6)(SO4)(2), was studied using high-resolution neutron time-of-flight spectroscopy on a polycrystalline sample with a nearly stoichiometric magnetic lattice [2.8(2)% Cr vacancies ...

Thermo-hydro-mechanical behavior of energy barrettes: Field experiments and numerical simulations

Lyesse Laloui, Elena Ravera, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Over the past two decades, the thermo-hydro-mechanical behavior of earth-contact structures such as piles, walls, slabs, and tunnels, which simultaneously provide structural support and energy supply, has been studied through various field experiments and ...

Development of Visual Memory Capacity Following Early-Onset and Extended Blindness

Lukas Vogelsang, Marin Vogelsang

It is unknown whether visual memory capacity can develop if onset of pattern vision is delayed for several years following birth. We had an opportunity to address this question through our work with an unusual population of 12 congenitally blind individual ...
