Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Xin-Chen He, Yi-Fu Cai, Xiao-Han Ma, Theodoros Papanikolaou, Emmanuel N. Saridakis | Summary: Ultra-light primordial black holes (PBHs) with masses $M_{rm PBH}<5times 10^8mathrm{g}$ can dominate transiently the energy budget of the Universe and reheat the Universe through their evaporation taking place before Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. The isocurvature […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Yukinobu Toda, , , | Summary: In a previous paper, we introduced quasi-BPS categories for moduli stacks of semistable Higgs bundles. Under a certain condition on the rank, Euler characteristic, and weight, the quasi-BPS categories (called BPS in this case) are non-commutative analogues of Hitchin […]

Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Shigeki Matsumoto, Jie Sheng, Chuan-Yang Xing, , | Summary: Dark matter with mass in the crossover range between wave dark matter and particle dark matter, around $(10^{-3},, 10^3),$eV, remains relatively unexplored by terrestrial experiments. In this mass regime, dark matter scatters coherently with macroscopic objects. The effect […]

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Perseas Christodoulidis, Jinn-Ouk Gong, Wei-Chen Lin, Maria Mylova, Misao Sasaki | Summary: Chern-Simons gravity is known to suffer from graviton ghost production during inflation, which suppresses the parity-violating power spectrum at scales relevant to cosmic microwave background observations. In this work, we show that allowing the initial […]

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Masafusa Onoue, Xuheng Ding, John D. Silverman, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Takuma Izumi | Summary: Understanding the rapid formation of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early universe requires an understanding of how stellar mass grows in the host galaxies. Here, we perform an analysis of rest-frame optical […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Xinhu Zheng, Anbai Jiang, Bing Han, Yanmin Qian, Pingyi Fan | Summary: Anomalous Sound Detection (ASD) has gained significant interest through the application of various Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in industrial settings. Though possessing great potential, ASD systems can hardly be readily deployed in real production sites […]

Kavli Affiliate: Hiraku Nakajima | First 5 Authors: Hiraku Nakajima, , , , | Summary: The S-dual $(mathbf G^veecurvearrowrightmathbf M^vee)$ of the pair $(mathbf Gcurvearrowrightmathbf M)$ of a smooth affine algebraic symplectic manifold $mathbf M$ with hamiltonian action of a complex reductive group $mathbf G$ was introduced implicitly in [arXiv:1706.02112] and explicitly in [arXiv:1807.09038] under […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Jessica A. Cowell, David Alonso, Jia Liu, , | Summary: Marked power spectra provide a computationally efficient way to extract non-Gaussian information from the matter density field using the usual analysis tools developed for the power spectrum without the need for explicit calculation of higher-order correlators. In […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Peizhong Ju, Haibo Yang, Jia Liu, Yingbin Liang, Ness Shroff | Summary: Federated Learning (FL) has gained significant popularity due to its effectiveness in training machine learning models across diverse sites without requiring direct data sharing. While various algorithms along with their optimization analyses have shown that […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Wenhan Yao, Zedong Xing, Xiarun Chen, Jia Liu, Yongqiang He | Summary: One-shot voice conversion(VC) aims to change the timbre of any source speech to match that of the target speaker with only one speech sample. Existing style transfer-based VC methods relied on speech representation disentanglement and […]
