Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | First 5 Authors: Keisuke Inomata, Masahiro Kawasaki, Kyohei Mukaida, Tsutomu T. Yanagida, | Summary: We discuss a possible connection between the recent NANOGrav results and the primordial black holes (PBHs) for the LIGO-Virgo events. In particular, we focus on the axion-like curvaton model, which provides a sizable amount of PBHs […]
Kavli Affiliate: Johannes Lehmann | First 5 Authors: Tobias Winkler, Johannes Lehmann, Joost-Pieter Katoen, , | Summary: State-of-the-art probabilistic model checkers perform verification on explicit-state Markov models defined in a high-level programming formalism like the PRISM modeling language. Typically, the low-level models resulting from such program-like specifications exhibit lots of structure such as repeating subpatterns. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Todor Milanov | First 5 Authors: Alexander Alexandrov, Todor Milanov, , , | Summary: We construct a Hermitian matrix model for the total descendant potential of a simple singularity of type D similar to the Kontsevich matrix model for the generating function of intersection numbers on the Deligne–Mumford moduli spaces $overline{mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$. | Search […]
Kavli Affiliate: J. S. Villasenor | First 5 Authors: J. Fernando Barbero G., Bogar Díaz, Juan Margalef-Bentabol, Eduardo J. S. Villaseñor, | Summary: We discuss a simple symplectic formulation for tetrad gravity that leads to the real Ashtekar variables in a direct and transparent way. It also sheds light on the role of the Immirzi […]
