We report on photometric observations of two dwarf novae, OT J075418.7+381225 and OT J230425.8+062546, which underwent superoutburst in 2013 (OT J075418) and in 2011 (OT J230425). Their mean period of the superhump was 0.0722403(26) d (OT J074518) and 0.067317(35) d (OT J230425). These objects showed a very long growing stage of the superhump (stage A) and a large period decrease in stage A-B transition. The long stage A suggests slow evolution of the superhump due to very small mass ratios of these objects. The decline rates during the plateau phase in the superoutburst of these objects were lower than those of SU UMa-type DNe with a similar superhump period. These properties were similar to those of SSS J122221.7-311523, the best candidate for the period bouncer. Therefore, these two DNe are regarded as good candidates for the period bouncer. We estimated the number density of period bouncers roughly from our observations in the recent five years. There is a possibility that these WZ Sge-type dwarf novae with unusual outburst properties can account for the missing population of the period bouncer expected from the evolutionary scenario.

We report on photometric observations of WZ Sge-type dwarf novae, MASTER OT J211258.65+242145.4 and MASTER OT J203749.39+552210.3 which underwent outbursts in 2012. Early superhumps were recorded in both systems. During superoutburst plateau, ordinar
y superhumps with a period of 0.060291(4) d (MASTER J211258) and of 0.061307(9) d (MASTER J203749) in average were observed. MASTER J211258 and MASTER J203749 exhibited eight and more than four post-superoutburst rebrightenings, respectively. In the final part of the superoutburst, an increase in the superhump periods was seen in both systems. We have made a survey of WZ Sge-type dwarf novae with multiple rebrightenings, and confirmed that the superhump periods of WZ Sge-type dwarf novae with multiple rebrightenings were longer than those of WZ Sge-type dwarf novae without a rebrightening. Although WZ Sge-type dwarf novae with multiple rebrightenings have been thought to be the good candidates for period bouncers based on their low mass ratio (q) from inferred from the period of fully grown (stage B) superhumps, our new method using the period of growing superhumps (stage A superhumps), however, implies higher q than those expected from stage B superhumps. These q values appear to be consistent with the duration of the stage A superoutbursts, which likely reflects the growth time of the 3:1 resonance. We present a working hypothesis that the small fractional superhump excesses for stage B superhumps in these systems may be explained as a result that a higher gas pressure effect works in these systems than in ordinary SU UMa-type dwarf novae. This result leads to a new picture that WZ Sge-type dwarf novae with multiple rebrightenings and SU UMa-type dwarf novae without a rebrightening (they are not period bouncers) are located in the same place on the evolutionary track.
A previously unknown optical transient (OT 120926) has been observed in the constellation Bootes. The transient flared to magnitude 4.7, which is comparable to the visual magnitudes of the nearby stars $pi$ Boo and $omicron$ Boo. Database searches do
not yield an unambiguous identification of a quiescent counterpart of this transient but do identify several candidates. However, none of the candidate stellar counterparts have shown any credible evidence of previous variability in the All-Sky Automated Survey or the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey. A flare on the nearby high proper motion, probable M dwarf star LP 440-48 could have produced OT 120926, but the amplitude of the flare would be an unprecedented 11.3 magnitudes. The current record amplitude for such flares on M dwarfs is 9.5 magnitudes.
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have enjoyed tremendous success in image generation and processing, and have recently attracted growing interests in financial modelings. This paper analyzes GANs from the perspectives of mean-field games (MFGs)
and optimal transport. More specifically, from the game theoretical perspective, GANs are interpreted as MFGs under Pareto Optimality criterion or mean-field controls; from the optimal transport perspective, GANs are to minimize the optimal transport cost indexed by the generator from the known latent distribution to the unknown true distribution of data. The MFGs perspective of GANs leads to a GAN-based computational method (MFGANs) to solve MFGs: one neural network for the backward Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation and one neural network for the forward Fokker-Planck equation, with the two neural networks trained in an adversarial way. Numerical experiments demonstrate superior performance of this proposed algorithm, especially in the higher dimensional case, when compared with existing neural network approaches.
We observed the 2016 outburst of OT J002656.6+284933 (CSS101212:002657+284933) and found that it has the longest recorded [0.13225(1) d in average] superhumps among SU UMa-type dwarf novae. The object is the third known SU UMa-type dwarf nova above t
he period gap. The outburst, however, was unlike ordinary long-period SU UMa-type dwarf novae in that it showed two post-outburst rebrightenings. It showed superhump evolution similar to short-period SU UMa-type dwarf novae. We could constrain the mass ratio to less than 0.15 (most likely between 0.10 and 0.15) by using superhump periods in the early and post-superoutburst stages. These results suggest the possibility that OT J002656.6+284933 has an anomalously undermassive secondary and it should have passed a different evolutionary track from the standard one.
We report on the MASTER Global Robotic Net discovery of an eclipsing binary, MASTER OT J095310.04+335352.8, previously known as unremarkable star TYC 2505-672-1, which displays extreme orbital parameters. The orbital period P=69.1 yr is more than 2.5
times longer than that of epsilon-Aurigae, which is the previous record holder. The light curve is characterized by an extremely deep total eclipse with a depth of more than 4.5 mag, which is symmetrically shaped and has a total duration of 3.5 yrs. The eclipse is essentially gray. The spectra acquired with the Russian 6 m BTA telescope both at minimum and maximum light mainly correspond to an M0-1III--type red giant, but the spectra taken at the bottom of eclipse show small traces of a sufficiently hot source. The observed properties of this system can be better explained as the red giant eclipsed by a large cloud (the disk) of small particles surrounding the invisible secondary companion.
