PROBs and perverse sheaves II. Ran spaces and 0-cycles with coefficients

Kavli Affiliate: Mikhail Kapranov | First 5 Authors: Mikhail Kapranov, Vadim Schechtman, , , | Summary: We consider the space Z(C,L) of 0-cycles on the complex line C with coefficients in a commutative monoid L subject to certain conditions. Such spaces include the symmetric products (for L=Z_+) and the Ran space (for L=T={ True, False} […]

Scale-invariant enhancement of gravitational waves during inflation

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Atsuhisa Ota, Misao Sasaki, Yi Wang, , | Summary: The inflationary 1-loop tensor power spectrum from an excited spectator scalar field is calculated. Recent studies on primordial black holes suggest that the inflationary curvature perturbation may be huge on small scales. An enhanced curvature perturbation may arise […]

Static spherical vacuum solutions in the bumblebee gravity model

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Rui Xu, Dicong Liang, Lijing Shao, , | Summary: The bumblebee gravity model is a vector-tensor theory of gravitation where the vector field nonminimally couples to the Ricci tensor. By investigating the vacuum field equations with spherical symmetry, we find two families of black-hole (BH) solutions in […]

The SZ flux-mass ($Y$-$M$) relation at low halo masses: improvements with symbolic regression and strong constraints on baryonic feedback

Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Digvijay Wadekar, Leander Thiele, J. Colin Hill, Shivam Pandey, Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro | Summary: Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) and supernovae can affect measurements of integrated SZ flux of halos ($Y_mathrm{SZ}$) from CMB surveys, and cause its relation with the halo mass ($Y_mathrm{SZ}-M$) to deviate from […]

Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Digvijay Wadekar, Leander Thiele, J. Colin Hill, Shivam Pandey, Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro | Summary: Ionized gas in the halo circumgalactic medium leaves an imprint on the cosmic microwave background via the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect. Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) and supernovae can affect the measurements […]

Quantum interference in gravitational particle production

Kavli Affiliate: Edward W. Kolb | First 5 Authors: Edward Basso, Daniel J. H. Chung, Edward W. Kolb, Andrew J. Long, | Summary: Previous numerical investigations of gravitational particle production during the coherent oscillation period of inflation displayed unexplained fluctuations in the spectral density of the produced particles. We argue that these features are due […]
