The impact of the redshift-dependent selection effect of halos on the redshift-space power spectrum

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Kanmi Nose, Masahiro Takada, Ryo Terasawa, , | Summary: In a wide-area spectroscopic survey of galaxies, it is nearly impossible to obtain a homogeneous sample of galaxies with respect to galaxy properties such as stellar mass and host halo mass across a range of redshifts. Despite the […]

Dark matter from inflationary quantum fluctuations

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Mohammad Ali Gorji, Misao Sasaki, Teruaki Suyama, , | Summary: We explore a scenario in which dark matter is a massive bosonic field, arising solely from quantum fluctuations generated during inflation. In this framework, dark matter exhibits primordial isocurvature perturbations with an amplitude of ${cal O}(1)$ at […]

Crystals and Double Quiver Algebras from Jeffrey-Kirwan Residues

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Jiakang Bao, Masahito Yamazaki, , , | Summary: We construct statistical mechanical models of crystal melting describing the flavoured Witten indices of $mathcal{N}ge 2$ supersymmetric quiver gauge theories. Our results can be derived from the Jeffrey-Kirwan (JK) residue formulas, and generalize the previous results for quivers corresponding […]

Primordial Black Hole Formation from Power Spectrum with Finite-width

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Shi Pi, Misao Sasaki, Volodymyr Takhistov, Jianing Wang, | Summary: Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) can form from gravitational collapse of large overdensities in the early Universe, giving rise to rich phenomena in astrophysics and cosmology. We develop a novel, general, and accurate method based on theory of […]

Harish-Chandra’s admissibility theorem and beyond

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiyuki Kobayashi | First 5 Authors: Toshiyuki Kobayashi, , , , | Summary: This article is a record of the lecture at the centennial conference for Harish-Chandra. The admissibility theorem of Harish-Chandra concerns the restrictions of irreducible representations to maximal compact subgroups. In this article, we begin with a brief explanation of two […]

Natural Language Fine-Tuning

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Jia Liu, Yue Wang, Zhiqi Lin, Min Chen, Yixue Hao | Summary: Large language model fine-tuning techniques typically depend on extensive labeled data, external guidance, and feedback, such as human alignment, scalar rewards, and demonstration. However, in practical application, the scarcity of specific knowledge poses unprecedented challenges […]

Flavor Physics at CEPC: a General Perspective

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Xiaocong Ai, Wolfgang Altmannshofer, Peter Athron, Xiaozhi Bai, Lorenzo Calibbi | Summary: We discuss the landscape of flavor physics at the Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC), based on the nominal luminosity outlined in its Technical Design Report. The CEPC is designed to operate in multiple modes to address […]

Measurement of the branching fraction, polarization, and time-dependent $CP$ asymmetry in $B^0 to ρ^+ρ^-$ decays and constraint on the CKM angle $φ_2$

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed, N. Akopov | Summary: We present a measurement of the branching fraction and fraction of longitudinal polarization of $B^0 to rho^+ rho^-$ decays, which have two $pi^0$’s in the final state. We also measure time-dependent $CP$ violation parameters […]

Comprehensive Bayesian Exploration of Froggatt-Nielsen Mechanism

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Masahiro Ibe, Satoshi Shirai, Keiichi Watanabe, , | Summary: The Froggatt-Nielsen (FN) mechanism successfully explains the hierarchical structure of fermion Yukawa couplings by introducing a U(1) flavor symmetry with distinct charge assignments for different fermion generations. While some FN charge assignments have been proposed, their evaluation has […]
