Detection of stellar light from quasar host galaxies at redshifts above 6

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Xuheng Ding, Masafusa Onoue, John D. Silverman, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Takuma Izumi | Summary: The detection of starlight from the host galaxies of quasars during the reionization epoch ($z>6$) has been elusive, even with deep HST observations. The current highest redshift quasar host detected, at $z=4.5$, required […]

Logarithmic Duality of the Curvature Perturbation

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Shi Pi, Misao Sasaki, , , | Summary: We study the comoving curvature perturbation $mathcal{R}$ in the single-field inflation models whose potential can be approximated by a piecewise quadratic potential $V(varphi)$ by using the $delta N$ formalism. We find a general formula for $mathcal{R}(deltavarphi, deltapi)$, consisting of […]

The categorical DT/PT correspondence and quasi-BPS categories for local surfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Yukinobu Toda, , , | Summary: We construct semiorthogonal decompositions of Donaldson-Thomas (DT) categories for reduced curve classes on local surfaces into products of quasi-BPS categories and Pandharipande-Thomas (PT) categories, giving a categorical analogue of the numerical DT/PT correspondence for Calabi-Yau 3-folds. The main ingredient […]

The local categorical DT/PT correspondence

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Yukinobu Toda, , , | Summary: In this paper, we prove the categorical wall-crossing formula for certain quivers containing the three loop quiver, which we call DT/PT quivers. These quivers appear as Ext-quivers for the wall-crossing of DT/PT moduli spaces on Calabi-Yau 3-folds. The resulting […]

Coherent Sheaves, Chern Classes, and Superconnections on Compact Complex-Analytic Manifolds

Kavli Affiliate: Alexey Bondal | First 5 Authors: Alexey Bondal, Alexei Rosly, , , | Summary: We construct a twist-closed enhancement of the category ${mathcal D}^b_{rm coh}(X)$, the bounded derived category of complexes of ${mathcal O}_X$-modules with coherent cohomology, by means of the DG-category of $barpartial$-superconnections. Then we apply the techniques of $barpartial$-superconnections to define […]

Robust and Fast Quantum State Transfer on Superconducting Circuits

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Xiao-Qing Liu, Jia Liu, Zheng-Yuan Xue, , | Summary: Quantum computation attaches importance to high-precision quantum manipulation, where the quantum state transfer with high fidelity is necessary. Here, we propose a new scheme to implement the quantum state transfer of high fidelity and long distance, by adding […]

Impact of half-wave plate systematics on the measurement of cosmic birefringence from CMB polarization

Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Marta Monelli, Eiichiro Komatsu, Alexandre E. Adler, Matteo Billi, Paolo Campeti | Summary: Polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) can probe new parity-violating physics such as cosmic birefringence (CB), which requires exquisite control over instrumental systematics. The non-idealities of the half-wave plate (HWP) represent a source […]

Precise Estimate of Charged Wino Decay Rate

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Masahiro Ibe, Masataka Mishima, Yuhei Nakayama, Satoshi Shirai, | Summary: The Wino is an $mathrm{SU}(2)_{L}$ triplet Majorana fermion and a well-motivated dark matter candidate. The mass difference between the charged and the neutral Winos is small thanks to the $mathrm{SU}(2)_{L}$ symmetry. The small mass difference makes the […]
