Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Dongmin Gang, Sungjoon Kim, Kimyeong Lee, Myungbo Shim, Masahito Yamazaki | Summary: We propose a novel procedure of assigning a pair of non-unitary topological quantum field theories (TQFTs), TFT$_pm [mathcal{T}_{rm rank ;0}]$, to a (2+1)D interacting $mathcal{N}=4$ superconformal field theory (SCFT) $mathcal{T}_{rm rank ;0}$ of rank 0, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yasunori Nomura | First 5 Authors: Hao Geng, Yasunori Nomura, Hao-Yu Sun, , | Summary: We formulate a version of the information paradox in de Sitter spacetime and show that it is solved by the emergence of entanglement islands in the context of the DS/dS correspondence; in particular, the entanglement entropy of a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tomotake Matsumura | First 5 Authors: Qi Wen, Elena Fadeeva, Shaul Hanany, Jürgen Koch, Tomotake Matsumura | Summary: We use a 1030 nm laser with 7 ps pulse duration and average power up to 100 W to ablate pyramid-shape subwavelength structures (SWS) on alumina and sapphire. The SWS give an effective and cryogenically […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simeon Hellerman | First 5 Authors: Simeon Hellerman, Domenico Orlando, , , | Summary: We consider large-R-charge Coulomb branch correlation functions in $mathcal{N} = 2$ superconformal QCD in D=4 dimensions, with gauge group $SU(2)$ and $N_f = 4$ hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. Using information from supersymmetric recursion relations, S-duality, and matching of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Maya Mallaby-Kay, Zachary Atkins, Simone Aiola, Stefania Amodeo, Jason E. Austermann | Summary: Two recent large data releases for the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT), called DR4 and DR5, are available for public access. These data include temperature and polarization maps that cover nearly half the sky at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Naoshi Sugiyama | First 5 Authors: Mutsumi Minoguchi, Atsushi J. Nishizawa, Tsutomu T. Takeuchi, Naoshi Sugiyama, | Summary: The void ellipticity distribution today can be well explained by the tidal field. Going a step further from the overall distribution, we investigate individuality on the tidal response of void shape in non-linear dynamical evolution. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Yoshiki Fukusumi, Yuji Tachikawa, Yunqin Zheng, , | Summary: In the last few years it was realized that every fermionic theory in 1+1 dimensions is a generalized Jordan-Wigner transform of a bosonic theory with a non-anomalous $mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry. In this note we determine how the boundary states […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mikhail Kapranov | First 5 Authors: Mikhail Kapranov, Vadim Schechtman, , , | Summary: Algebraic structures involving both multiplications and comultiplications (such as, e.g., bialgebras or Hopf algebras) can be encoded using PROPs (categories with PROducts and Permutations) of Adams and MacLane. To encode such structures on objects of a braided monoidal category, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yevgeny Stadnik | First 5 Authors: Prateek Agrawal, Martin Bauer, James Beacham, Asher Berlin, Alexey Boyarsky | Summary: With the establishment and maturation of the experimental programs searching for new physics with sizeable couplings at the LHC, there is an increasing interest in the broader particle and astrophysics community for exploring the physics […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mikhail Kapranov | First 5 Authors: Mikhail Kapranov, , , , | Summary: By Liouville’s theorem, in dimensions 3 or more conformal transformations form a finite-dimensional group, an apparent drastic departure from the 2-dimensional case. We propose a derived enhancement of the conformal Lie algebra which is an infinite-dimensional dg-Lie algebra incorporating not […]
