Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Rui Lou, Yumeng Zhang, Erjian Cheng, Xiaolong Feng, Alexander Fedorov | Summary: The origin of the charge order in kagome lattice materials has attracted great interest due to the unique electronic structure features connected to kagome networks and the interplay between electron and lattice degrees of freedom. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xingde Li | Authors: Yongping Chen and Xingde Li | Summary: This study investigates the synthesis of pH-responsive, reversible nanocomposites comprising polystyrene sulfonate (PSS)-coated gold nanorods and poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH)-coated gold nanorods, along with their optical properties. We observed a pH-dependent swelling/shrinking of the nanocomposites and a dramatic red-shift (~ 60 nm) of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | Summary:The absence of a well-defined Fermi surface in flat-band systems challenges the conventional understanding of instabilities toward Landau order based on nesting. We investigate the existence of an intrinsic nesting structure encoded in the band geometry (i.e. the wavefunctions of the flat band(s)), which leads to a maximal susceptibility at […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Ting-Hsuan Liao, Yi Zhou, Yu Shen, Chun-Hao Paul Huang, Saayan Mitra | Summary: We explore how body shapes influence human motion synthesis, an aspect often overlooked in existing text-to-motion generation methods due to the ease of learning a homogenized, canonical body shape. However, this homogenization can distort […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lihong Wang | First 5 Authors: Boyuan Wang, Boyuan Wang, , , | Summary: Single-image human reconstruction is vital for digital human modeling applications but remains an extremely challenging task. Current approaches rely on generative models to synthesize multi-view images for subsequent 3D reconstruction and animation. However, directly generating multiple views from a […]

Kavli Affiliate: Peter Ford | Summary:Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in the creation of online content, creating feedback loops as subsequent generations of models will be trained on this synthetic data. Such loops were shown to lead to distribution shifts – models misrepresenting the true underlying distributions of human data (also called model […]

Kavli Affiliate: Axel Scherer| First 5 Authors: Alexander Mattick, Alexander Mattick, , , | Summary:Quantum computing is currently strongly limited by the impact of noise, in particular introduced by the application of two-qubit gates. For this reason, reducing the number of two-qubit gates is of paramount importance on noisy intermediate-scale quantum hardware. To advance towards […]
