We study Coupling Extended Proca-Nuevo gravity, a non-linear theory extending from dRGT massive gravity with a spin-1 field. This theory is shown to yield reliable, ghost-free cosmological solutions, modeling both the Universe's thermal history and l...
Proca-Nuevo is a non-linear theory of a massive spin-1 field which enjoys a non-linearly realized constraint that distinguishes it among other generalized vector models. We show that the theory may be extended by the addition of operators of the Gene...
Structural, electronic and magnetic properties were calculated for the optimized $α$-U/W(110) thin films (TFs) within the density functional theory. Our optimization for 1U/7W(110) shows that the U-W vertical interlayer spacing (ILS) is expanded by...
OSCAR is an innovative new computer algebra system which combines and extends the power of its four cornerstone systems - GAP (group theory), Singular (algebra and algebraic geometry), Polymake (polyhedral geometry), and Antic (number theory). Here,...
This article is a generalization of a result in Quillen's note ``Module theory over non-unital rings'' giving a one-to-one correspondence between bilocalization of abelian categories of modules and idempotent ideals of the base ring. Faltings; Gabber...
A prescription for center gauge fixing for pure Yang-Mills theory in the continuum with general gauge groups is presented. The emergence of various types of singularities (magnetic monopoles and center vortices) appearing in the course of the gauge...
Pilot wave theory endows particles with definite positions at all times governed by deterministic dynamics. However, individual particle trajectories are generically undetectable by experiment. This idea might seem to be contested in light of two pro...
The applications of geometric control theory methods on Lie groups and homogeneous spaces to the theory of quantum computations are investigated. These methods are shown to be very useful for the problem of constructing an universal set of gates fo...
The BRIDGES meeting in gauge theory, extremal structures, and stability was held in June 2024 at l'Institut d'Études Scientifiques de Cargèse in Corsica, organized by Daniele Faenzi, Eveline Legendre, Eric Loubeau, and Henrique Sá Earp. The first...
It is known that a source-free Yang-Mills theory with the normal conformal Cartan connection used as the gauge potential gives rise to equations of motion equivalent to the vanishing of the Bach tensor. We investigate the conformally invariant presym...
Previous work has shown that item response theory may be used to rank incorrect response options to multiple-choice items on commonly used assessments. This work has shown that, when the correct response to each item is specified, a nominal response...
We calculate the integral homotopy groups of THH(l) at any prime and of THH(ko) at p=2, where l is the Adams summand of the connective complex p-local K-theory spectrum and ko is the connective real K-theory spectrum....
Burton-Cabrera-Frank (BCF) theory has proven to be a versatile framework to relate surface morphology and dynamics during crystal growth to the underlying mechanisms of adatom diffusion and attachment at steps. For an important class of crystal surfa...
In this paper, we consider two different issues, stability and strong coupling, raised lately in the newly-proposed Horava-Lifshitz (HL) theory of quantum gravity with projectability condition. We find that all the scalar modes are stable in the de S...
We make a comprehensive study of the theory and phenomenology of a low energy supersymmetric standard model originating from a string-inspired $E_6$ grand unified gauge group. The Exceptional Supersymmetric Standard Model (ESSM) considered here is...
We study generation through the lens of statistical learning theory. First, we abstract and formalize the results of Gold [1967], Angluin [1979], Angluin [1980] and Kleinberg and Mullainathan [2024] in terms of a binary hypothesis class defined over...
The polynomials introduced by Sister Celine cover different usual orthogonal polynomials as special cases. Among them, the Jacobi and discrete Hahn polynomials are of particular interest for the quantum theory of angular momentum. In this note, we sh...
A theory is proposed which allows explaining the observed flat galaxy rotation curves, without needing to invoke dark matter. Whereas other theories have been proposed in the past which realize the same, the present theory rests on basic physical pri...
For explaining electrical breakdown, field electron emission (FE) is a mechanism of interest. In the period 2006 to 2010 there were significant developments in basic FE theory, but these have not yet fully entered general thinking in technological FE...
Information is physical, and for a physical theory to be universal, it should model observers as physical systems, with concrete memories where they store the information acquired through experiments and reasoning. Here we address these issues in Spe...
