Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Harley Katz, Alexander P. Ji, O. Grace Telford, Peter Senchyna, | Summary: The first few cycles of JWST have identified an overabundance of UV-bright galaxies and a general excess of UV luminosity density at $zgtrsim10$ compared to expectations from most (pre-JWST) theoretical models. Moreover, some of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | Summary:When a massive star reaches the end of its lifetime, its core collapses and releases neutrinos that drive a shock into the outer layers (stellar envelope). A sufficiently strong shock ejects the envelope, producing a supernova. If the shock fails to eject it, the envelope is predicted to fall back […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nathan P. Lourie | Summary:Type Ia supernovae arise from the thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs in multiple star systems. A rare sub-class of SNe Ia exhibit signatures of interaction with circumstellar material (CSM), allowing for direct constraints on companion material. While most known events show evidence for dense nearby CSM identified via peak-light […]

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Wald | Summary:The gravitational physics landscape is evolving rapidly, driven by our ability to study strong-field regions, in particular black holes. Black Holes Inside and Out gathered world experts to discuss the status of the field and prospects ahead. We hope that the ideas and perspectives are a source of inspiration. Structure: […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Dujian Ding, , , | Summary: Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized natural language processing and hold immense potential for advancing Artificial Intelligence. However, the core architecture of most mainstream LLMs — the Transformer — has inherent limitations in computational depth, rendering them theoretically incapable […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yufeng Yang, Yufeng Yang, , , | Summary: Recent studies have shown that many nonconvex machine learning problems satisfy a generalized-smooth condition that extends beyond traditional smooth nonconvex optimization. However, the existing algorithms are not fully adapted to such generalized-smooth nonconvex geometry and encounter significant technical limitations […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yufeng Yang, Erin Tripp, Yifan Sun, Shaofeng Zou, Yi Zhou | Summary: Recent studies have shown that many nonconvex machine learning problems meet a so-called generalized-smooth condition that extends beyond traditional smooth nonconvex optimization. However, the existing algorithms designed for generalized-smooth nonconvex optimization encounter significant limitations in […]
