Role of stochastic noise and generalization error in the time propagation of neural-network quantum states

Giuseppe Carleo

Neural-network quantum states (NQS) have been shown to be a suitable variational ansatz to simulate out-of-equilibrium dynamics in two-dimensional systems using timedependent variational Monte Carlo (t-VMC). In particular, stable and accurate time propagat ...

Small-angle neutron scattering study of mesoscale magnetic disordering and skyrmion phase suppression in the frustrated chiral magnet Co6.75Zn6.75Mn6.51

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Jonathan White

Co-Zn-Mn chiral cubic magnets display versatile magnetic skyrmion phases, including equilibrium phases stable far above and far below room temperature, and the facile creation of robust far-from-equilibrium skyrmion states. In this system, compositional di ...

Towards bootstrapping RG flows: sine-Gordon in AdS

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes

The boundary correlation functions for a Quantum Field Theory (QFT) in an Anti-de Sitter (AdS) background can stay conformally covariant even if the bulk theory undergoes a renormalization group (RG) flow. Studying such correlation functions with the numer ...

Continuous dissipative phase transitions with or without symmetry breaking

Fabrizio Minganti

The paradigm of second-order phase transitions (PTs) induced by spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) in thermal and quantum systems is a pillar of modern physics that has been fruitfully applied to out-of-equilibrium open quantum systems. Dissipative phase ...

Simultaneous autoregressive models for spatial extremes

Emeric Rolland Georges Thibaud

Motivated by the widespread use of large gridded data sets in the atmospheric sciences, we propose a new model for extremes of areal data that is inspired by the simultaneous autoregressive (SAR) model in classical spatial statistics. Our extreme SAR model ...

Bootstrapping massive quantum field theories

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Denis Karateev

We propose a new non-perturbative method for studying UV complete unitary quantum field theories (QFTs) with a mass gap in general number of spacetime dimensions. The method relies on unitarity formulated as positive semi-definiteness of the matrix of inne ...

Asymptotic Freedom and Large Spin Antiferromagnetic Chains

Frédéric Mila, Samuel Gozel

Building on the mapping of large-S spin chains onto the O(3) nonlinear sigma model with coupling constant 2/S, and on general properties of that model (asymptotic freedom, implying that perturbation theory is valid at high energy, and Elitzur's conjecture ...

Quantum phase transitions beyond Landau-Ginzburg theory in one-dimensional space revisited

Christopher Marc Mudry

The phase diagram of the quantum spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic J(1)-J(2) XXZ chain was obtained by Haldane using bosonization techniques [Haldane, Phys. Rev. B 25, 4925 (1982); 26, 5257 (1982)]. It supports three distinct phases for 0

R-current three-point functions in 4d N=1 superconformal theories

Alessandro Vichi, Andrea Manenti

In 4d N = 1 superconformal field theories (SCFTs) the R-symmetry current, the stress-energy tensor, and the supersymmetry currents are grouped into a single object, the Ferrara-Zumino multiplet. In this work we study the most general form of three-point fu ...

Renormalization of Horava gravity

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mario Herrero Valea

We prove perturbative renormalizability of projectable Horava gravity. The key element of the argument is the choice of a gauge which ensures the correct anisotropic scaling of the propagators and their uniform falloff at large frequencies and momenta. Thi ...

Spontaneous dimerization, critical lines, and short-range correlations in a frustrated spin-1 chain

We report on a detailed investigation of the spin-1 J1−J2−J3 Heisenberg model, a frustrated model with nearest-neighbor coupling J1, next-nearest neighbor coupling J2, and a three-site interaction J3[(Si−1⋅Si)(Si⋅Si+1)+H.c.] previously studied in [Phys. Re ...

Prediction of phase ambiguity resolution based on signal intensity and geometry

The goal of this contribution was to develop a reliable quality indicator reflecting the potential success of differential carrier phase ambiguity resolution for kinematic Global Positioning System (GPS). The indicator must be operable without any communic ...

A mean field model of dynamic and post-dynamic recrystallization predicting kinetics, grain size and flow stress

A physically-based two-site mean field model has been developed to describe the microstructural evolution due to recrystallization during and after deformation. The model has been applied to predict the recrystallized fraction, recrystallized grain size, a ...

Impact of axions on confinement in three and two dimensions

In this paper we discuss well-known three- and two-dimensional models with confinement, namely, the Polyakov compact electrodynamics in 3D and two-dimensional CP(N-1) sigma model, and reveal changes in the confining regimes of these models upon adding the ...

Ultraviolet completion without symmetry restoration

Solomon G Shamsuddin Osman Endlich

We show that it is not possible to UV complete certain low-energy effective theories with spontaneously broken spacetime symmetries by embedding them into linear sigma models, that is, by adding "radial" modes and restoring the broken symmetries. When such ...

Resting-State Functional Connectivity Emerges from Structurally and Dynamically Shaped Slow Linear Fluctuations

Brain fluctuations at rest are not random but are structured in spatial patterns of correlated activity across different brain areas. The question of how resting-state functional connectivity (FC) emerges from the brain's anatomical connections has motivat ...

Wavelet-Based Reconstruction for Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners produce raw measurements that are unfit to direct interpretation, unless an algorithmic step, called reconstruction, is introduced. Up to the last decade, this reconstruction was performed by algorithms of moderate ...
