Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Jong Yeon Lee, Wenjie Ji, Zhen Bi, Matthew P. A. Fisher, | Summary: Measurements allow efficient preparation of interesting quantum many-body states with long-range entanglement, conditioned on additional transformations based on measurement outcomes. Here, we demonstrate that the so-called conformal quantum critical points (CQCP) can […]

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Adam S. Jermyn, Evan B. Bauer, Josiah Schwab, R. Farmer, Warrick H. Ball | Summary: We update the capabilities of the open-knowledge software instrument Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA). The new auto_diff module implements automatic differentiation in MESA, an enabling capability that alleviates the need […]

Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Felipe Montealegre-Mora, David Gross, , , | Summary: The representation theory of the Clifford group is playing an increasingly prominent role in quantum information theory, including in such diverse use cases as the construction of protocols for quantum system certification, quantum simulation, and quantum cryptography. In these […]

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Matthew P. A. Fisher, Vedika Khemani, Adam Nahum, Sagar Vijay, | Summary: Quantum circuits — built from local unitary gates and local measurements — are a new playground for quantum many-body physics and a tractable setting to explore universal collective phenomena far-from-equilibrium. These models have […]

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Benny T. -H. Tsang, Daniel Kasen, Lars Bildsten, , | Summary: Eruptive mass loss likely produces the energetic outbursts observed from some massive stars before they undergo core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe). The resulting dense circumstellar medium (CSM) may also cause the subsequent SNe to be observed as Type […]

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: James Hong, Haotian Zhang, Michaël Gharbi, Matthew Fisher, Kayvon Fatahalian | Summary: We introduce the task of spotting temporally precise, fine-grained events in video (detecting the precise moment in time events occur). Precise spotting requires models to reason globally about the full-time scale of actions and locally […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Supavit Pokawanvit, Zhitao Chen, Zhihong You, Luiza Angheluta, M. Cristina Marchetti | Summary: We study two-dimensional active nematics on a substrate, comparing compressible and incompressible flows. Through simulations and theoretical analysis we show that arch patterns are stable in the compressible case but are unstable in […]

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Léo Mangeolle, Leon Balents, Lucile Savary, , | Summary: Because electrons and ions form a coupled system, it is a priori clear that the dynamics of the lattice should reflect symmetry breaking within the electronic degrees of freedom. This has been recently clearly evidenced for the case […]
