The Simons Observatory: Astro2020 Decadal Project Whitepaper

The Simons Observatory (SO) is a ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment sited on Cerro Toco in the Atacama Desert in Chile that promises to provide breakthrough discoveries in fundamental physics, cosmology, and astrophysics. Supported by the Simons Foundation, the Heising-Simons Foundation, and with contributions from collaborating institutions, SO will see first light in 2021 and start a five year survey in 2022. SO has 287 collaborators from 12 countries and 53 institutions, including 85 students and 90 postdocs. The SO experiment in its currently funded form ('SO-Nominal') consists of three 0.4 m Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) and one 6 m Large Aperture Telescope (LAT). Optimized for minimizing systematic errors in polarization measurements at large angular scales, the SATs will perform a deep, degree-scale survey of 10% of the sky to search for the signature of primordial gravitational waves. The LAT will survey 40% of the sky with arc-minute resolution. These observations will measure (or limit) the sum of neutrino masses, search for light relics, measure the early behavior of Dark Energy, and refine our understanding of the intergalactic medium, clusters and the role of feedback in galaxy formation. With up to ten times the sensitivity and five times the angular resolution of the Planck satellite, and roughly an order of magnitude increase in mapping speed over currently operating ("Stage 3") experiments, SO will measure the CMB temperature and polarization fluctuations to exquisite precision in six frequency bands from 27 to 280 GHz. SO will rapidly advance CMB science while informing the design of future observatories such as CMB-S4.

On the $C_λ$-extended $w_{\infty}$-symmetry

Starting from the $C_{\lambda}$-extended oscillator algebras, we obtain a new deformed $w_{\infty}$-algebra. More precisely, we show that the $C_{\lambda}$-extended $w_{\infty}$-algebra generators may be expressed via the annihilation and creation operators of the $C_{\lambda}$-extended oscillator algebras $a$ and $a^{\dagger}$ as an infinite-dimensional extension of the realization of $sp(2)$ algebra.

New algebraic structures in the $C_λ$-extended Hamiltonian system

A realization of various algebraic structures in terms of the $C_{\lambda}$-extended oscillator algebras is introduced. In particular, the $C_{\lambda}$-extended oscillator algebras realization of Fairlie-Fletcher-Zachos (FFZ)algebra is given. This latter lead easily to the realization of the quantum $U_t(sl(2))$ algebra. The new deformed Virasoro algebra is also presented.

Between Quantum Virasoro Algebra \cal{L}_c and Generalized Clifford Algebras

In this paper we construct the quantum Virasoro algebra ${\mathcal{L}}_{c}$ generators in terms of operators of the generalized Clifford algebras $C_{n}^{k}$. Precisely, we show that ${\mathcal{L}}_{c}$ can be embedded into generalized Clifford algebras.

Approximately transitive dynamical systems and simple spectrum

For some countable discrete torsion Abelian groups we give examples of their finite measure-preserving actions which have simple spectrum and no approximate transitivity property.

Some Notes on Flat Polynomials

Connection of flat polynomials with some spectral questions in ergodic theory is discussed. A necessary condition for a sequence of polynomials of the type $\frac{1}{\sqrt{N}} \big(1 +\sum_{j=1}^{N-1} z^{n_j}\big)$ to be flat in almost everywhere sense is given, which contrasts with a similar necessary condition for a sequence of polynomials to be ultraflat.

Invariant Subspace Method and Fractional Modified Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Equation

In this paper, the invariant subspace method is applied to the time fractional modified Kuramoto-Sivashinsky partial differential equation. The obtained reduced system of nonlinear ordinary fractional equations is solved by the Laplace transform method and with using of some useful properties of Mittag-Leffler function. Then, some exact solutions of the time fractional nonlinear studied equation are found.

Very early warning of a moderate-to-strong El Niño in 2023

The El Ni\~no Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the strongest driver of year-to-year variations of the global climate and can lead to extreme weather conditions and disasters in various regions around the world. Here, we review two different approaches for the early forecast of El Ni\~no that we have developed recently: the climate network-based approach allows forecasting the onset of an El Ni\~no event about 1 year ahead, while the complexity-based approach allows additionally to estimate the magnitude of an upcoming El Ni\~no event in the calendar year before. For 2023, both approaches predict the onset of an El Ni\~no event, with a combined onset probability of about 89%. The complexity-based approach predicts a moderate-to-strong El Ni\~no with a magnitude of $1.49\pm0.37${\deg}C. Since El Ni\~no events temporarily increase the global temperature, we expect that the coming El Ni\~no will increase the global temperature by about +0.2{\deg}C, likely making 2024 the hottest year since the beginning of instrumental observations. It is possible that as a consequence of this El Ni\~no, the +1.5{\deg}C target (compared to pre-industrial levels) will be temporarily breached already in 2024.
