Kavli Affiliate: Eli Yablonovitch | First 5 Authors: Sri Krishna Vadlamani, Tianyao Patrick Xiao, Eli Yablonovitch, , | Summary: Optimization is a major part of human effort. While being mathematical, optimization is also built into physics. For example, physics has the principle of Least Action, the principle of Minimum Entropy Generation, and the Variational Principle. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Crommie | First 5 Authors: Kyunghoon Lee, M. Iqbal Bakti Utama, Salman Kahn, Appalakondaiah Samudrala, Nicolas Leconte | Summary: Two-dimensional heterostructures with layers of slightly different lattice vectors exhibit a new periodic structure known as moire lattices. Moire lattice formation provides a powerful new way to engineer the electronic structure of two-dimensional […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Nathan C. Frey, Matthew K. Horton, Jason M. Munro, Sinéad M. Griffin, Kristin A. Persson | Summary: The discovery of intrinsic magnetic topological order in $rm MnBi_2Te_4$ has invigorated the search for materials with coexisting magnetic and topological phases. These multi-order quantum materials are expected to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | First 5 Authors: Daniel Mas Montserrat, Arvind Kumar, Carlos Bustamante, Alexander Ioannidis, | Summary: With declining sequencing costs a promising and affordable tool is emerging in cancer diagnostics: genomics. By using association studies, genomic variants that predispose patients to specific cancers can be identified, while by using tumor genomics cancer […]

Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | First 5 Authors: Daniel Mas Montserrat, Carlos Bustamante, Alexander Ioannidis, , | Summary: Local-ancestry inference (LAI), also referred to as ancestry deconvolution, provides high-resolution ancestry estimation along the human genome. In both research and industry, LAI is emerging as a critical step in DNA sequence analysis with applications extending from […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Xiaowei Xie, Kristin A. Persson, David W. Small, , | Summary: Machine Learning (ML) approximations to Density Functional Theory (DFT) potential energy surfaces (PESs) are showing great promise for reducing the computational cost of accurate molecular simulations, but at present they are not applicable to varying […]
Kavli Affiliate: K. Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Yulong Dong, Xiang Meng, K. Birgitta Whaley, Lin Lin, | Summary: Quantum signal processing (QSP) is a powerful quantum algorithm to exactly implement matrix polynomials on quantum computers. Asymptotic analysis of quantum algorithms based on QSP has shown that asymptotically optimal results can in principle be […]
