Significance of void shape: Neutrino mass from Voronoi void halos?

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Adrian E. Bayer, Jia Liu, Christina D. Kreisch, Alice Pisani, | Summary: Massive neutrinos suppress the growth of cosmic structure on nonlinear scales, motivating the use of information beyond the power spectrum to tighten constraints on the neutrino mass, for example by considering cosmic voids. It was […]

Large Neighborhood Prioritized Search for Combinatorial Optimization with Answer Set Programming

Kavli Affiliate: Naoyuki Tamura | First 5 Authors: Irumi Sugimori, Katsumi Inoue, Hidetomo Nabeshima, Torsten Schaub, Takehide Soh | Summary: We propose Large Neighborhood Prioritized Search (LNPS) for solving combinatorial optimization problems in Answer Set Programming (ASP). LNPS is a metaheuristic that starts with an initial solution and then iteratively tries to find better solutions […]

Supermassive black hole formation from Affleck-Dine mechanism with suppressed clustering on large scales

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | First 5 Authors: Kentaro Kasai, Masahiro Kawasaki, Kai Murai, Shunsuke Neda, | Summary: We study a primordial black hole (PBH) formation model based on the framework of the inhomogeneous Affleck-Dine (AD) mechanism, which can explain the seeds of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). This model, however, predicts strong clustering of SMBHs […]

Cosmological Consequences of Unconstrained Gravity and Electromagnetism

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia | First 5 Authors: Loris Del Grosso, David E Kaplan, Tom Melia, Vivian Poulin, Surjeet Rajendran | Summary: Motivated by the quantum description of gauge theories, we study the cosmological effects of relaxing the Hamiltonian and momentum constraints in general relativity and Gauss’ law in electromagnetism. We show that the unconstrained […]
