Le football professionnel européen dans un système capitaliste financiarisé en crise : une approche régulationniste des facteurs de changement institutionnel by Jérémie Bastien

“…I claim that the instability of this system is explained by two endogenous factors – which are the ’financialisation’ of the strategies of traditional football actors and the particular status of the wage ratio – and by two exogenous factors – which are the ’instrumentalisation’ of football by ’financialised’ actors and the impact of the global crises on football.…”

Backreacted Coulomb energy in the Skyrme model by Sven Bjarke Gudnason, James Martin Speight

“…We find, in agreement with physical expectations, that the Coulomb backreaction is most pronounced for large Skyrmions and find furthermore that the dynamics of the theory is more sensitive to the backreaction than the ground states (global minimizers of the energy). Calibrating the model to Carbon-12, we find excellent agreement of the masses of the studied Skyrmions — within 1.86% of experimental data. …”

State estimation with quantum extreme learning machines beyond the scrambling time by Marco Vetrano, Gabriele Lo Monaco, Luca Innocenti, Salvatore Lorenzo, G. Massimo Palma

“…In particular, we show efficient state estimation is possible even beyond the scrambling time, for many different types of dynamics — in fact, we show that in all the cases we studied, the reconstruction efficiency at long interaction times matches the optimal one offered by random global unitary dynamics. These results offer promising venues for robust experimental QELM-based state estimation protocols, as well as providing novel insights into the nature of QIS from a state estimation perspective.…”
