Kavli Affiliate: Jiansheng Chen | First 5 Authors: Jingyuan Zhu, Huimin Ma, Jiansheng Chen, Jian Yuan, | Summary: Realistic and diverse 3D shape generation is helpful for a wide variety of applications such as virtual reality, gaming, and animation. Modern generative models, such as GANs and diffusion models, learn from large-scale datasets and generate new […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Yoshiki Matsuoka, Masafusa Onoue, Kazushi Iwasawa, Michael A. Strauss, Nobunari Kashikawa | Summary: We present the quasar luminosity function (LF) at $z = 7$, measured with 35 spectroscopically confirmed quasars at $6.55 < z < 7.15$. The sample of 22 quasars from the Subaru High-$z$ Exploration of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Shubh Agrawal, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Quinn M. Konopacky, Bruce Macintosh, Dimitri Mawet | Summary: While radial velocity surveys have demonstrated that the population of gas giants peaks around $3~text{au}$, the most recent high-contrast imaging surveys have only been sensitive to planets beyond $sim~10~text{au}$. Sensitivity at small angular separations […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Meer Ashwinkumar, Jacob M. Leedom, Masahito Yamazaki, , | Summary: We discuss interrelations between several ideas in quantum gravity. One is the Swampland program, which states that a low-energy effective field theory should satisfy non-trivial constraints to have an ultraviolet (UV) completion in quantum gravity. Another is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Meer Ashwinkumar, Jacob M. Leedom, Masahito Yamazaki, , | Summary: We discuss the interrelations between several ideas in quantum gravity — holography, the Swampland, and the concept of ensemble averaging. To do so, we study ensemble averages of Narain-type theories associated with general even quadratic forms and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Katsuki Aoki, Toshifumi Noumi, Ryo Saito, Sota Sato, Satoshi Shirai | Summary: The gravitational positivity bound gives quantitative “swampland” constraints on low-energy effective theories inside theories of quantum gravity. We give a comprehensive discussion of this bound for those interested in applications to phenomenological model building. We […]
