Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Bruno Balthazar, Amit Giveon, David Kutasov, Emil J. Martinec, | Summary: We propose a new $AdS_3/CFT_2$ duality, in which the bulk string theory has a target spacetime $AdS_3$ times a squashed three-sphere $S^3_flat$, and the dual $CFT_2$ is a symmetric product of sigma models on $R_phitimes […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Samantha D’Alonzo, Max Tegmark, , , | Summary: We present an automated method for measuring media bias. Inferring which newspaper published a given article, based only on the frequencies with which it uses different phrases, leads to a conditional probability distribution whose analysis lets us automatically map […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Charles | First 5 Authors: Celine Armand, Eric Charles, Mattia di Mauro, Chiara Giuri, J. Patrick Harding | Summary: Cosmological and astrophysical observations suggest that 85% of the total matter of the Universe is made of Dark Matter (DM). However, its nature remains one of the most challenging and fundamental open questions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Yuji Tachikawa, Mayuko Yamashita, , , | Summary: We reformulate the question of the absence of global anomalies of heterotic string theory mathematically in terms of a certain natural transformation $mathrm{TMF}^bulletto (I_{mathbb{Z}}Omega^text{string})^{bullet-20}$, from topological modular forms to the Anderson dual of string bordism groups, using the Segal-Stolz-Teichner […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Herman L. Marshall, Yang Chen, Jeremy J. Drake, Matteo Guainazzi, Vinay L. Kashyap | Summary: We describe a process for cross-calibrating the effective areas of X-ray telescopes that observe common targets. The targets are not assumed to be "standard candles" in the classic sense, in that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert M. Wald | First 5 Authors: Daine L. Danielson, Gautam Satishchandran, Robert M. Wald, Robert J. Weinbaum, | Summary: Recently, Bl’azquez-Salcedo, Knoll, and Radu (BSKR) have given a class of static, spherically symmetric, traversable wormhole spacetimes with Dirac and Maxwell fields. The BSKR wormholes are obtained by joining a classical solution to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Amer Aljanabi, Mohanad Abd Shehab, Osama Alluhaibi, Qasim Zeeshan Ahmed, Pavlos Lazaridis | Summary: The problem of underwater acoustic (UWA) channel estimation is the non-uniform sparse representation that may increase the algorithm complexity and the required time. A mathematical framework utilizing l21 constraint with two-dimensional frequency domain […]
Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Yu-Peng Zhang, Yan-Bo Zeng, Yong-Qiang Wang, Shao-Wen Wei, Pau Amaro Seoane | Summary: Future space-borne gravitational-wave detectors will observe the gravitational waves in the milli-Hz. Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals with central supermassive black holes are very important sources that could provide the information of the vicinity of black […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hiroaki Aihara | First 5 Authors: Hiroaki Aihara, Yusra AlSayyad, Makoto Ando, Robert Armstrong, James Bosch | Summary: The paper presents the third data release of Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (HSC-SSP), a wide-field multi-band imaging survey with the Subaru 8.2m telescope. HSC-SSP has three survey layers (Wide, Deep, and UltraDeep) with different […]
