Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Ian Convy, William Huggins, Haoran Liao, K. Birgitta Whaley, | Summary: Tensor networks have emerged as promising tools for machine learning, inspired by their widespread use as variational ansatze in quantum many-body physics. It is well known that the success of a given tensor network ansatz depends […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mikhail Kapranov | First 5 Authors: Mikhail Kapranov, Vadim Schechtman, , , | Summary: Algebraic structures involving both multiplications and comultiplications (such as, e.g., bialgebras or Hopf algebras) can be encoded using PROPs (categories with PROducts and Permutations) of Adams and MacLane. To encode such structures on objects of a braided monoidal category, […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Chloe Ya Gao, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: We introduce a thermodynamically consistent, minimal stochastic model for complementary logic gates built with field-effect transistors. We characterize the performance of such gates with tools from information theory and study the interplay between accuracy, speed, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | First 5 Authors: Chris Whittle, Evan D. Hall, Sheila Dwyer, Nergis Mavalvala, Vivishek Sudhir | Summary: The motion of a mechanical object — even a human-sized object — should be governed by the rules of quantum mechanics. Coaxing them into a quantum state is, however, difficult: the thermal environment masks […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Bradford Snios, Daniel A. Schwartz, Aneta Siemiginowska, Małgosia Sobolewska, Mark Birkinshaw | Summary: We present Chandra X-ray observations of 14 radio-loud quasars at redshifts $3 < z < 4$, selected from a well-defined sample. All quasars are detected in the 0.5-7.0 keV energy band, and resolved […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yevgeny Stadnik | First 5 Authors: Prateek Agrawal, Martin Bauer, James Beacham, Asher Berlin, Alexey Boyarsky | Summary: With the establishment and maturation of the experimental programs searching for new physics with sizeable couplings at the LHC, there is an increasing interest in the broader particle and astrophysics community for exploring the physics […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mikhail Kapranov | First 5 Authors: Mikhail Kapranov, , , , | Summary: By Liouville’s theorem, in dimensions 3 or more conformal transformations form a finite-dimensional group, an apparent drastic departure from the 2-dimensional case. We propose a derived enhancement of the conformal Lie algebra which is an infinite-dimensional dg-Lie algebra incorporating not […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: Krista Lynne Smith, Ryan Ridden-Harper, Michael Fausnaugh, Tansu Daylan, Nicola Omodei | Summary: The TESS exoplanet-hunting mission detected the rising and decaying optical afterglow of GRB 191016A, a long Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) detected by Swift-BAT but without prompt XRT or UVOT follow-up due to proximity to the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shmuel M. Rubinstein | First 5 Authors: Rodolfo Ostilla-Mónico, Ryan McKeown, Michael P. Brenner, Shmuel M. Rubinstein, Alain Pumir | Summary: At high Reynolds number, the interaction between two vortex tubes leads to intense velocity gradients, which are at the heart of fluid turbulence. This vorticity amplification comes about through two different instability […]
