Tensor Networks from Kinematic Space

Bartlomiej Czech, Lampros Lamprou, Samuel McCandlish +1

We point out that the MERA network for the ground state of a 1+1-dimensional conformal field theory has the same structural features as kinematic space---the geometry of CFT interv…

The Two-Loop Symbol of all Multi-Regge Regions

Till Bargheer, Georgios Papathanasiou, Volker Schomerus

We study the symbol of the two-loop n-gluon MHV amplitude for all Mandelstam regions in multi-Regge kinematics in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. While the number of distinct Mandelst…

Boost Breaking in the EFT of Inflation

Luca V. Delacretaz, Toshifumi Noumi, Leonardo Senatore

If time-translations are spontaneously broken, so are boosts. This symmetry breaking pattern can be non-linearly realized by either just the Goldstone boson of time translations, o…

Two interpretations of thin-shell instantons

Pisin Chen, Yao-Chieh Hu, Dong-han Yeom

For O(4)-symmetric instantons, there are two complementary interpretations for their analytic continuations. One is the nothing-to-something interpretation, where the initial and f…

Quantization of Spacetime Based on Spacetime Interval Operator

Hsu-Wen Chiang, Yao-Chieh Hu, Pisin Chen

Motivated by both concepts of R.J. Adler's recent work on utilizing Clifford algebra as the linear line element , and the fermionization of…

Stationary bubbles and their tunneling channels toward trivial geometry

Pisin Chen, Guillem Domènech, Misao Sasaki +1

In the path integral approach, one has to sum over all histories that start from the same initial condition in order to obtain the final condition as a superposition of histories.…
