Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Shane P. Kelly, Ulrich Poschinger, Ferdinand Schmidt-Kaler, Matthew P. A. Fisher, Jamir Marino | Summary: The coherent superposition of quantum states is an important resource for quantum information processing which distinguishes quantum dynamics and information from their classical counterparts. In this article we determine the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: James Hong, Matthew Fisher, Michaël Gharbi, Kayvon Fatahalian, | Summary: Human pose is a useful feature for fine-grained sports action understanding. However, pose estimators are often unreliable when run on sports video due to domain shift and factors such as motion blur and occlusions. This leads to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Zhitao Chen, Duanduan Wan, Mark J. Bowick, , | Summary: Very thin elastic sheets, even at zero temperature, exhibit nonlinear elastic response by virtue of their dominant bending modes. Their behavior is even richer at finite temperature. Here we use molecular dynamics (MD) to study the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Boris I. Shraiman| First 5 Authors: Farzan Vafa, Farzan Vafa, , , | Summary:Recent experiments in various cell types have shown that two-dimensional tissues often display local nematic order, with evidence of extensile stresses manifest in the dynamics of topological defects. Using a mesoscopic model where tissue flow is generated by fluctuating traction […]
Kavli Affiliate: Boris I. Shraiman | First 5 Authors: Farzan Vafa, Mark J. Bowick, M. Cristina Marchetti, Boris I. Shraiman, | Summary: Recent experiments and numerical studies have drawn attention to the dynamics of active nematics. Two-dimensional active nematics flow spontaneously and exhibit spatiotemporal chaotic flows with proliferation of topological defects in the nematic texture. […]

Fisher, | Summary: We establish the emergence of a conformal field theory (CFT) in a (1+1)-dimensional hybrid quantum circuit right at the measurement-driven entanglement transition by revealing space-time conformal covariance of entanglement entropies and […]
Kavli Affiliate: David J. Gross | First 5 Authors: David J. Gross, Jorrit Kruthoff, Andrew Rolph, Edgar Shaghoulian, | Summary: Motivated by $Tbar T$, we introduce and study a wide class of solvable deformations of quantum-mechanical theories. These deformations map the Hamiltonian to a function of itself. We solve these theories by computing all finite-temperature […]
Kavli Affiliate: David J. Gross | First 5 Authors: David J. Gross, Jorrit Kruthoff, Andrew Rolph, Edgar Shaghoulian, | Summary: Quantum field theory in zero spatial dimensions has a rich infrared landscape and a universal ultraviolet, inverting the usual Wilsonian paradigm. For holographic theories this implies a rich landscape of asymptotically AdS$_2$ geometries. Isolating the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Larry Coldren| First 5 Authors: Weiqiang Xie, Weiqiang Xie, , , | Summary:In this paper, we demonstrate a radiation-strength-chirped metasurface centimeter-long grating antenna, whose beam quality is approaching the diffraction limit in its footprint with 90 percent efficiency.Instead of chirping the duty cycle to tune radiation strength, which calls for non-scalable fabrication resolution, […]
