TL;DR: In this article, a phenomenological non-gravitational coupling between dark energy and dark matter is investigated, where the interaction in the dark sector is parameterized as an energy transfer either from dark matter to dark energy or the opposite.
Abstract: We investigate a phenomenological non-gravitational coupling between dark energy and dark matter, where the interaction in the dark sector is parameterized as an energy transfer either from dark matter to dark energy or the opposite. The models are constrained by a whole host of updated cosmological data: cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropies and polarization, high-redshift supernovae, baryon acoustic oscillations, redshift space distortions and gravitational lensing. Both models are found to be compatible with all cosmological observables, but in the case where dark matter decays into dark energy, the tension with the independent determinations of H0 and σ8, already present for standard cosmology, increases: this model in fact predicts lower H0 and higher σ8, mostly as a consequence of the higher amount of dark matter at early times, leading to a stronger clustering during the evolution. Instead, when dark matter is fed by dark energy, the reconstructed values of H0 and σ8 nicely agree with their local determinations, with a full reconciliation between high- and low-redshift observations. A non-zero coupling between dark energy and dark matter, with an energy flow from the former to the latter, appears therefore to be in better agreement with cosmological data.

TL;DR: A Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) sampler is employed to obtain samples from a multivariate highly non-Gaussian lognormal Poissonian density posterior given a set of observations to provide an efficient and flexible basis for future high-precision large-scale structure inference.
Abstract: In this paper we present a new and efficient Bayesian method for non-linear three-dimensional large-scale structure inference. We employ a Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) sampler to obtain samples from a multivariate highly non-Gaussian lognormal Poissonian density posterior given a set of observations. The HMC allows us to take into account the non-linear relations between the observations and the underlying density field which we seek to recover. As the HMC provides a sampled representation of the density posterior any desired statistical summary, such as the mean, mode or variance, can be calculated from the set of samples. Further, it permits us to seamlessly propagate non-Gaussian uncertainty information to any final quantity inferred from the set of samples. The developed method is extensively tested in a variety of test scenarios, taking into account a highly structured survey geometry and selection effects. Tests with a mock galaxy catalogue based on the Millennium Run show that the method is able to recover the filamentary structure of the non-linear density field. The results further demonstrate the feasibility of non-Gaussian sampling in high-dimensional spaces, as required for precision non-linear large-scale structure inference. The HMC is a flexible and efficient method, which permits for simple extension and incorporation of additional observational constraints. Thus, the method presented here provides an efficient and flexible basis for future high-precision large-scale structure inference.

TL;DR: A geometrical framework to study the range of conditions necessary for feasible coexistence in mutualistic systems is developed and it is shown that feasibility is determined by few quantities describing the interactions, yielding a nontrivial complexity–feasibility relationship.
Abstract: A central question in theoretical ecology is how diverse species can coexist in communities, and how that coexistence depends on network properties. Here, Grilli et al. quantify the extent of feasible coexistence of empirical networks, showing that it is smaller for trophic than mutualism networks.

TL;DR: An excellent agreement is found the theoretical prediction and the values of the Lyapunov exponent obtained by numerical simulations for both models, and an analytic formula for the growth-rate of its solutions is worked out and applied to the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam beta model and to a chain of coupled rotators.
Abstract: This paper deals with the problem of analytically computing the largest Lyapunov exponent for many degrees of freedom Hamiltonian systems. This aim is succesfully reached within a theoretical framework that makes use of a geometrization of newtonian dynamics in the language of Riemannian geometry. A new point of view about the origin of chaos in these systems is obtained independently of homoclinic intersections. Chaos is here related to curvature fluctuations of the manifolds whose geodesics are natural motions and is described by means of Jacobi equation for geodesic spread. Under general conditions ane effective stability equation is derived; an analytic formula for the growth-rate of its solutions is worked out and applied to the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam beta model and to a chain of coupled rotators. An excellent agreement is found the theoretical prediction and the values of the Lyapunov exponent obtained by numerical simulations for both models.
