On a $mathbbZ_3$-valued discrete topological term in 10d heterotic string theories

Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | Summary:We show that the low-energy effective actions of two ten-dimensional supersymmetric heterotic strings are different by a $mathbbZ_3$-valued discrete topological term even after we turn off the $E_8times E_8$ and $Spin(32)/mathbbZ_2$ gauge fields. This will be demonstrated by considering the inflow of normal bundle anomaly to the respective NS5-branes from […]

Towards a Consistent Calculation of the Lunar Response to Gravitational Waves

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Han Yan, Xian Chen, Jinhai Zhang, Fan Zhang, Mengyao Wang | Summary: The recent increasing interest in detecting gravitational waves (GWs) by lunar seismic measurement urges us to have a clear understanding of the response of the moon to passing GWs. In this paper, we clarify the […]

HIMap: HybrId Representation Learning for End-to-end Vectorized HD Map Construction

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yi Zhou, Hui Zhang, Jiaqian Yu, Yifan Yang, Sangil Jung | Summary: Vectorized High-Definition (HD) map construction requires predictions of the category and point coordinates of map elements (e.g. road boundary, lane divider, pedestrian crossing, etc.). State-of-the-art methods are mainly based on point-level representation learning for regressing […]

Iterative Learning for Joint Image Denoising and Motion Artifact Correction of 3D Brain MRI

Kavli Affiliate: Lihong Wang | First 5 Authors: Lintao Zhang, Mengqi Wu, Lihong Wang, David C. Steffens, Guy G. Potter | Summary: Image noise and motion artifacts greatly affect the quality of brain MRI and negatively influence downstream medical image analysis. Previous studies often focus on 2D methods that process each volumetric MR image slice-by-slice, […]

EIGER VI. The Correlation Function, Host Halo Mass and Duty Cycle of Luminous Quasars at $zgtrsim6$

Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Anna-Christina Eilers, Ruari Mackenzie, Elia Pizzati, Jorryt Matthee, Joseph F. Hennawi | Summary: We expect luminous ($M_{1450}lesssim-26.5$) high-redshift quasars to trace the highest density peaks in the early universe. Here, we present observations of four $zgtrsim6$ quasar fields using JWST/NIRCam in imaging and widefield slitless spectroscopy […]

Modulation of GABAA receptor trafficking by WWC2 reveals class-specific mechanisms of synapse regulation by WWC family proteins

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Huganir | Authors: Thomas L Dunham, Julia R Wilkerson, Richard C Johnson, Richard L. Huganir and Lenora J Volk | Summary: WWC2 (WW and C2 domain-containing protein) is implicated in several neurological disorders, however its function in the brain has yet to be determined. Here, we demonstrate that WWC2 interacts with inhibitory […]
