Darwinian Selection Induces Lamarckian Adaptation in a Holobiont Model

Dino Osmanovic, David A Kessler, Yitzhak Rabin +1

Current models of animal evolution focus on selection of individuals, ignoring the much faster selection of symbiotic bacteria. Here we take host-symbiont interactions into account…

Optical photometry and spectroscopy of the low-luminosity, broad-lined Ic supernova iPTF15dld

E. Pian, L. Tomasella, E. Cappellaro +37

Core-collapse stripped-envelope supernova (SN) explosions reflect the diversity of physical parameters and evolutionary paths of their massive star progenitors. We have observed th…

Edge--Entanglement correspondence for gapped topological phases with symmetry

Maciej Koch-Janusz, Kusum Dhochak, Erez Berg

The correspondence between the edge theory and the entanglement spectrum is firmly established for the chiral topological phases. We study gapped, topologically ordered, non-chiral…

Chern-Simons-matter dualities with and gauge groups

Ofer Aharony, Francesco Benini, Po-Shen Hsin +1

In the last few years several dualities were found between the low-energy behaviors of Chern-Simons-matter theories with unitary gauge groups coupled to scalars, and similar theori…

The long flow to freedom

Ofer Aharony, Shlomo S. Razamat, Nathan Seiberg +1

Two-dimensional field theories do not have a moduli space of vacua. Instead, it is common that their low-energy behavior is a sigma model with a target space. When this target spac…

The effect of interactions and disorder on the relaxation of two-level systems in amorphous solids

Ofek Asban, Ariel Amir, Yoseph Imry +1

At low temperatures the dynamical degrees of freedom in amorphous solids are tunnelling two-level systems (TLSs). Concentrating on these degrees of freedom, and taking into account…

On Longevity of I-ball/Oscillon

Kyohei Mukaida, Masahiro Takimoto, Masaki Yamada

We study I-balls/oscillons, which are long-lived, quasi-periodic, and spatially localized solutions in real scalar field theories. Contrary to the case of Q-balls, there is no evid…

Observation of Slow Dynamics near the Many-Body Localization Transition in One-Dimensional Quasiperiodic Systems

Henrik P. Lüschen, Pranjal Bordia, Sebastian Scherg +4

In the presence of sufficiently strong disorder or quasiperiodic fields, an interacting many-body system can fail to thermalize and become many-body localized. The associated trans…
