Decentralized cryptocurrency systems, known as blockchains, have shown promise as infrastructure for mutually distrustful parties to agree on transactions safely. However, Bitcoin-derived blockchains and their variants suffer from the limitations of the CAP Trilemma, which is difficult to be solved through optimizing consensus protocols. Moreover, the P2P network of blockchains have problems in efficiency and reliability without considering the matching of physical and logical topologies. For the CAP Trilemma in consortium blockchains, we propose a physical topology based on the multi-dimensional hypercube with excellent partition tolerance in probability. On the other hand, the general hypercube has advantages in solving the mismatch problems in P2P networks. The general topology is further extended to a hierarchical recursive topology with more medium links or short links to balance the reliability requirements and the costs of physical network. We prove that the hypercube topology has better partition tolerance than the regular rooted tree topology and the ring lattice topology, and effectively fits the upper-layer protocols. As a result, blockchains constructed by the proposed topology can reach the CAP guarantee bound through adopting the proper transmission and the consensus protocols protocols that have strong consistency and availability.

This paper deals with the large-scale behaviour of dynamical optimal transport on $\mathbb{Z}^d$-periodic graphs with general lower semicontinuous and convex energy densities. Our main contribution is a homogenisation result that describes the effective behaviour of the discrete problems in terms of a continuous optimal transport problem. The effective energy density can be explicitly expressed in terms of a cell formula, which is a finite-dimensional convex programming problem that depends non-trivially on the local geometry of the discrete graph and the discrete energy density. Our homogenisation result is derived from a $\Gamma$-convergence result for action functionals on curves of measures, which we prove under very mild growth conditions on the energy density. We investigate the cell formula in several cases of interest, including finite-volume discretisations of the Wasserstein distance, where non-trivial limiting behaviour occurs.

We study the query version of constrained minimum link paths between two points inside a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices such that there is at least one point on the path, visible from a query point. The method is based on partitioning $P$ into a number of faces of equal link distance from a point, called a link-based shortest path map (SPM). Initially, we solve this problem for two given points $s$, $t$ and a query point $q$. Then, the proposed solution is extended to a general case for three arbitrary query points $s$, $t$ and $q$. In the former, we propose an algorithm with $O(n)$ preprocessing time. Extending this approach for the latter case, we develop an algorithm with $O(n^3)$ preprocessing time. The link distance of a $q$-$visible$ path between $s$, $t$ as well as the path are provided in time $O(\log n)$ and $O(m+\log n)$, respectively, for the above two cases, where $m$ is the number of links.

Lattice-skin structures composed of a thin-shell skin and a lattice infill are widespread in nature and large-scale engineering due to their efficiency and exceptional mechanical properties. Recent advances in additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, make it possible to create lattice-skin structures of almost any size with arbitrary shape and geometric complexity. We propose a novel gradient-based approach to optimising both the shape and infill of lattice-skin structures to improve their efficiency further. The respective gradients are computed by fully considering the lattice-skin coupling while the lattice topology and shape optimisation problems are solved in a sequential manner. The shell is modelled as a Kirchhoff-Love shell and analysed using isogeometric subdivision surfaces, whereas the lattice is modelled as a pin-jointed truss. The lattice consists of many cells, possibly of different sizes, with each containing a small number of struts. We propose a penalisation approach akin to the SIMP (solid isotropic material with penalisation) method for topology optimisation of the lattice. Furthermore, a corresponding sensitivity filter and a lattice extraction technique are introduced to ensure the stability of the optimisation process and to eliminate scattered struts of small cross-sectional areas. The developed topology optimisation technique is suitable for non-periodic, non-uniform lattices. For shape optimisation of both the shell and the lattice, the geometry of the lattice-skin structure is parameterised using the free-form deformation technique. The topology and shape optimisation problems are solved in an iterative, sequential manner. The effectiveness of the proposed approach and the influence of different algorithmic parameters are demonstrated with several numerical examples.

The smart city is an emerging notion that is leveraging the Internet of Things (IoT) technique to achieve more comfortable, smart and controllable cities. The communications crossing domains between smart cities is indispensable to enhance collaborations. However, crossing-domain communications are more vulnerable since there are in different domains. Moreover, there are huge different devices with different computation capabilities, from sensors to the cloud servers. In this paper, we propose a lightweight two-layer blockchain mechanism for reliable crossing-domain communication in smart cities. Our mechanism provides a reliable communication mechanism for data sharing and communication between smart cities. We defined a two-layer blockchain structure for the communications inner and between smart cities to achieve reliable communications. We present a new block structure for the lightweight IoT devices. Moreover, we present a reputation-based multi-weight consensus protocol in order to achieve efficient communication while resistant to the nodes collusion attack for the proposed blockchain system. We also conduct a secure analysis to demonstrate the security of the proposed scheme. Finally, performance evaluation shows that our scheme is efficient and practical.

We consider \emph{Gibbs distributions}, which are families of probability distributions over a discrete space $\Omega$ with probability mass function of the form $\mu^\Omega_\beta(\omega) \propto e^{\beta H(\omega)}$ for $\beta$ in an interval $[\beta_{\min}, \beta_{\max}]$ and $H( \omega ) \in \{0 \} \cup [1, n]$. The \emph{partition function} is the normalization factor $Z(\beta)=\sum_{\omega \in\Omega}e^{\beta H(\omega)}$. Two important parameters of these distributions are the log partition ratio $q = \log \tfrac{Z(\beta_{\max})}{Z(\beta_{\min})}$ and the counts $c_x = |H^{-1}(x)|$. These are correlated with system parameters in a number of physical applications and sampling algorithms. Our first main result is to estimate the counts $c_x$ using roughly $\tilde O( \frac{q}{\varepsilon^2})$ samples for general Gibbs distributions and $\tilde O( \frac{n^2}{\varepsilon^2} )$ samples for integer-valued distributions (ignoring some second-order terms and parameters), and we show this is optimal up to logarithmic factors. We illustrate with improved algorithms for counting connected subgraphs and perfect matchings in a graph. We develop a key subroutine to estimate the partition function $Z$. Specifically, it generates a data structure to estimate $Z(\beta)$ for \emph{all} values $\beta$, without further samples. Constructing the data structure requires $O(\frac{q \log n}{\varepsilon^2})$ samples for general Gibbs distributions and $O(\frac{n^2 \log n}{\varepsilon^2} + n \log q)$ samples for integer-valued distributions. This improves over a prior algorithm of Huber (2015) which computes a single point estimate $Z(\beta_\max)$ using $O( q \log n( \log q + \log \log n + \varepsilon^{-2}))$ samples. We show matching lower bounds, demonstrating that this complexity is optimal as a function of $n$ and $q$ up to logarithmic terms.

The spherical ensemble is a well-known ensemble of N repulsive points on the two-dimensional sphere, which can realized in various ways (as a random matrix ensemble, a determinantal point process, a Coulomb gas, a Quantum Hall state...). Here we show that the spherical ensemble enjoys nearly optimal convergence properties from the point of view of numerical integration. More precisely, it is shown that the numerical integration rule corresponding to N nodes on the two-dimensional sphere sampled in the spherical ensemble is, with overwhelming probability, nearly a quasi-Monte-Carlo design in the sense of Brauchart-Saff-Sloan-Womersley (for any smoothness parameter s less than or equal to two). The key ingredient is a new explicit concentration of measure inequality for the spherical ensemble.

Pattern matching is a fundamental process in almost every scientific domain. The problem involves finding the positions of a given pattern (usually of short length) in a reference stream of data (usually of large length). The matching can be as an exact or as an approximate (inexact) matching. Exact matching is to search for the pattern without allowing for mismatches (or insertions and deletions) of one or more characters in the pattern), while approximate matching is the opposite. For exact matching, several data structures that can be built in linear time and space are used and in practice nowadays. For approximate matching, the solutions proposed to solve this matching are non-linear and currently impractical. In this paper, we designed and implemented a structure that can be built in linear time and space and solve the approximate matching problem in ($O(m + \frac {log_\Sigma ^kn}{k!} + occ$) search costs, where $m$ is the length of the pattern, $n$ is the length of the reference, and $k$ is the number of tolerated mismatches (and insertion and deletions).

Real-world applications such as the internet of things, wireless sensor networks, smart grids, transportation networks, communication networks, social networks, and computer grid systems are typically modeled as network structures. Network reliability represents the success probability of a network and it is an effective and popular metric for evaluating the performance of all types of networks. Binary-state networks composed of binary-state (e.g., working or failed) components (arcs and/or nodes) are some of the most popular network structures. The scale of networks has grown dramatically in recent years. For example, social networks have more than a billion users. Additionally, the reliability of components has increased as a result of both mature and emergent technology. For highly reliable networks, it is more practical to calculate approximated reliability, rather than exact reliability, which is an NP-hard problem. Therefore, we propose a novel direct reliability lower bound based on the binary addition tree algorithm to calculate approximate reliability. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed reliability bound are analyzed based on time complexity and validated through numerical experiments.

Periodic signals composed of periodic mixtures admit sparse representations in nested periodic dictionaries (NPDs). Therefore, their underlying hidden periods can be estimated by recovering the exact support of said representations. In this paper, support recovery guarantees of such signals are derived both in noise-free and noisy settings. While exact recovery conditions have long been studied in the theory of compressive sensing, existing conditions fall short of yielding meaningful achievability regions in the context of periodic signals with sparse representations in NPDs, in part since existing bounds do not capture structures intrinsic to these dictionaries. We leverage known properties of NPDs to derive several conditions for exact sparse recovery of periodic mixtures in the noise-free setting. These conditions rest on newly introduced notions of nested periodic coherence and restricted coherence, which can be efficiently computed and verified. In the presence of noise, we obtain improved conditions for recovering the exact support set of the sparse representation of the periodic mixture via orthogonal matching pursuit based on the introduced notions of coherence. The theoretical findings are corroborated using numerical experiments for different families of NPDs. Our results show significant improvement over generic recovery bounds as the conditions hold over a larger range of sparsity levels.
