TL;DR: A novel proximal-IBP algorithm is proposed, which can be seen as a proximal gradient method, which uses IBP on each iteration to make a proxy step, and it is shown that the first algorithm can be implemented in a centralized distributed setting (master/slave), while the second is amenable to a more general decentralized distributed setting with an arbitrary network topology.
Abstract: We study the complexity of approximating Wassertein barycenter of $m$ discrete measures, or histograms of size $n$ by contrasting two alternative approaches, both using entropic regularization. The first approach is based on the Iterative Bregman Projections (IBP) algorithm for which our novel analysis gives a complexity bound proportional to $\frac{mn^2}{\varepsilon^2}$ to approximate the original non-regularized barycenter. Using an alternative accelerated-gradient-descent-based approach, we obtain a complexity proportional to $\frac{mn^{2.5}}{\varepsilon} $. As a byproduct, we show that the regularization parameter in both approaches has to be proportional to $\varepsilon$, which causes instability of both algorithms when the desired accuracy is high. To overcome this issue, we propose a novel proximal-IBP algorithm, which can be seen as a proximal gradient method, which uses IBP on each iteration to make a proximal step. We also consider the question of scalability of these algorithms using approaches from distributed optimization and show that the first algorithm can be implemented in a centralized distributed setting (master/slave), while the second one is amenable to a more general decentralized distributed setting with an arbitrary network topology.

TL;DR: In this article, the Painleve-Calogero correspondence is extended to auxiliary linear problems associated with painleve equations, where the linear problems are represented in a new form which has a suggestive interpretation as a "quantized" version of the painelleve-calogero correspondences.
Abstract: The Painleve-Calogero correspondence is extended to auxiliary linear problems associated with Painleve equations. The linear problems are represented in a new form which has a suggestive interpretation as a “quantized” version of the Painleve-Calogero correspondence. Namely, the linear problem responsible for the time evolution is brought into the form of non-stationary Schrodinger equation in imaginary time, ∂tψ=(12∂x2+V(x,t))ψ, whose Hamiltonian is a natural quantization of the classical Calogero-like Hamiltonian H=12p2+V(x,t) for the corresponding Painleve equation. In present paper, we present explicit constructions for the first five equations from the Painleve list.

TL;DR: The International Time Perspective Research Project (ITP) as mentioned in this paper carried out a collaborative cross-cultural study of time perspective carried out in 24 countries, and the results of structural equivalence assessment study are presented, showing the cross-culture invariance of 36 items of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) scale.
Abstract: This chapter summarises some results of the International Time Perspective Research Project, which is a collaborative cross-cultural study of time perspective carried out in 24 countries. The highlights of structural equivalence assessment study are presented, showing the cross-cultural invariance of 36 items of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) scale. The associations between country-level ZTPI scores and other culture-level indicators, including the Human Development Index and Hofstede cultural dimensions, are presented and discussed. Using hierarchical cluster analysis, five distinct profiles of time perspective were found (future-oriented, present-oriented, balanced, moderately fatalistic, and negative), and significant differences in the prevalence of these profiles across cultures were found. Implications and perspectives for future research are discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the deformation behavior of a near-α titanium alloy (Ti-2.5Al-1.8Mn) was studied by a step-by-step decrease of the strain rate and constant strain rate tests in a temperature range of 790-915°C.
Abstract: Superplastic deformation behaviour of conventional sheets of a near-α titanium alloy (Ti-2.5Al-1.8Mn) was studied by a step-by-step decrease of the strain rate and constant strain rate tests in a temperature range of 790–915 °C. The research found that superplastic deformation is possible in a temperature range of 815–890 °С and a constant strain rate range of 2 × 10 −4 to 1 × 10 −3 s −1 with elongation above 300% and m -index above 0.4. Also, the research identified the optimum superplastic temperature range of 815–850 °C and constant strain rate of 4 × 10 −4 s −1 which provide a maximum elongation of 600–650%. Strain hardening is accelerated by dynamic grain growth at high temperatures of 865 and 890 °С. High dislocation activity is observed at superplastic flow in α-phase. Constitutive modelling of superplastic deformation behaviour is performed, and possible deformation mechanisms are discussed. It is suggested that grain boundary sliding between the α-grains is accommodated by a dislocation slip/creep mechanism.
