The nonlinear ellipse rotation usually occurs when an elliptically polarized beam propagates through an isotropic nonlinear medium owing to the existence of χ1221(3). Here we report the radial-variant nonlinear ellipse rotation of a vector beam with structured elliptical polarization through isotropic Kerr nonlinearities. Due to the interaction of elliptically polarized vector beams (EPVBs) with isotropic nonlinear media, the distributions of both the orientation angle and the ellipticity angle of beams at the far-field observational plane exhibit multiple concentric ring structures with the circularly symmetry. Numerical simulations show that the self-diffraction intensity pattern, the distribution of the state of polarization, and the spin angular momentum (SAM) distribution of an EPVB could be manipulated by tuning both the isotropic optical nonlinearity and the chirality parameter of the vector beam, which may find direct applications in polarization-control optical switching, SAM manipulation, and optical polarization encoding or detection.

This paper proposes a parametric hierarchical model for functional data with an elliptical shape, using a Gaussian process prior to capturing the data dependencies that reflect systematic errors while modeling the underlying curved shape through a von Mises-Fisher distribution. The model definition, Bayesian inference, and MCMC algorithm are discussed. The effectiveness of the model is demonstrated through the reconstruction of curved trajectories using both simulated and real-world examples.

- Intense ultrashort laser pulses are crucial in fundamental science, and their high temporal quality can be enhanced using techniques like nonlinear polarization ellipse rotation (NER).
- Post-compression schemes have transformed ultrafast lasers, allowing for the creation of shorter pulses but introducing new pre- and post-pulses that can affect pulse quality.
- By combining NER and post-compression techniques, researchers can effectively shape the output spectrum and improve temporal contrast, even though NER alone cannot suppress the unwanted new pulses generated during compression.

It is of practical significance to provide a reference for drought mitigation and water resource enhancement planning in the Henan Province region and to analyze the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of meteorological agricultural drought in the region. In this study, a multivariate (precipitation, potential evapotranspiration, soil moisture and normalized vegetation index) composite drought index CCDI was constructed based on the D Vine copula model, and the correlations between the CCDI and the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) and between the CCDI and the standardized soil moisture index (SSI) were analyzed. The ability of the CCDI to evaluate meteorological agricultural drought was assessed, and typical drought events were selected for validation.

Background: Medial tibial defects are common in patients who underwent primary total knee arthroplasty for varus deformity. Previous clinical studies have categorized tibial defects according to the depth of the defects and recommended different ways of addressing them. This study aimed to perform a biomechanical FE analysis to investigate the role of depth and surface area of the medial tibial plateau defects in the stability of the tibial component in primary TKA implants.
