Turbulence Supported Massive Star Envelopes

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: William Schultz, Lars Bildsten, Yan-Fei Jiang, , | Summary: The outer envelopes of massive ($Mgtrsim10,M_{odot}$) stars exhibit large increases in opacities from forests of lines and ionization transitions (particularly from iron and helium) that trigger near-surface convection zones. One-dimensional models predict density inversions and supersonic motions that […]

Excitations of quantum Ising chain CoNb2O6 in low transverse field: quantitative description of bound states stabilized by off-diagonal exchange and applied field

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Leonie Woodland, Izabella Lovas, M. Telling, D. Prabhakaran, Leon Balents | Summary: We present experimental and theoretical evidence of novel bound state formation in the low transverse field ordered phase of the quasi-one-dimensional Ising-like material CoNb$_2$O$_6$. High resolution single crystal inelastic neutron scattering measurements observe that small […]

Universality of the cross entropy in $mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetric monitored quantum circuits

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Maria Tikhanovskaya, Ali Lavasani, Matthew P. A. Fisher, Sagar Vijay, | Summary: The linear cross-entropy (LXE) has been recently proposed as a scalable probe of the measurement-driven phase transition between volume- and area-law-entangled phases of pure-state trajectories in certain monitored quantum circuits. Here, we demonstrate […]

Vibrations and tunneling of strained nanoribbons at finite temperature

Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Paul Z. Hanakata, Sourav S. Bhabesh, David Yllanes, David R. Nelson, Mark J. Bowick | Summary: Crystalline sheets (e.g., graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides) liberated from a substrate are a paradigm for materials at criticality because flexural phonons can fluctuate into the third dimension. Although studies […]

Advances in Data-Driven Analysis and Synthesis of 3D Indoor Scenes

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: Akshay Gadi Patil, Supriya Gadi Patil, Manyi Li, Matthew Fisher, Manolis Savva | Summary: This report surveys advances in deep learning-based modeling techniques that address four different 3D indoor scene analysis tasks, as well as synthesis of 3D indoor scenes. We describe different kinds of representations for […]

A “morphogenetic action” principle for 3D shape formation by the growth of thin sheets

Kavli Affiliate: Boris I. Shraiman| First 5 Authors: Dillon J. Cislo, Dillon J. Cislo, , , | Summary:How does growth encode form in developing organisms? Many different spatiotemporal growth profiles may sculpt tissues into the same target 3D shapes, but only specific growth patterns are observed in animal and plant development. In particular, growth profiles […]

The inflation hierarchy and the polarization hierarchy are complete for the quantum bilocal scenario

Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Laurens T. Ligthart, David Gross, , , | Summary: It is a fundamental but difficult problem to characterize the set of correlations that can be obtained by performing measurements on quantum mechanical systems. The problem is particularly challenging when the preparation procedure for the quantum states is […]

The role of non-affine deformations in the elastic behavior of the cellular vertex model

Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Michael F. Staddon, Arthur Hernandez, Mark J. Bowick, Michael Moshe, M. Cristina Marchetti | Summary: The vertex model of epithelia describes the apical surface of a tissue as a tiling of polygonal cells, with a mechanical energy governed by deviations in cell shape from preferred, or […]

RenderDiffusion: Image Diffusion for 3D Reconstruction, Inpainting and Generation

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: Titas Anciukevicius, Zexiang Xu, Matthew Fisher, Paul Henderson, Hakan Bilen | Summary: Diffusion models currently achieve state-of-the-art performance for both conditional and unconditional image generation. However, so far, image diffusion models do not support tasks required for 3D understanding, such as view-consistent 3D generation or single-view object […]
