Large Field Inflation and Gravitational Entropy

Nemanja Kaloper, Matthew Kleban, Albion Lawrence +1

Large field inflation can be sensitive to perturbative and nonperturbative quantum corrections that spoil slow roll. A large number of light species in the theory, which occur…

Boson Stars from Self-Interacting Dark Matter

Joshua Eby, Chris Kouvaris, Niklas Grønlund Nielsen +1

We study the possibility that self-interacting bosonic dark matter forms star-like objects. We study both the case of attractive and repulsive self-interactions, and we focus parti…

Cheap arbitrary high order methods for single integrand SDEs

Kristian Debrabant, Anne Kværnø

For a particular class of Stratonovich SDE problems, here denoted as single integrand SDEs, we prove that by applying a deterministic Runge-Kutta method of order we obtain me…

A natural Coleman-Weinberg theory explains the diphoton excess

Oleg Antipin, Matin Mojaza, Francesco Sannino

It is possible to delay the hierarchy problem, by replacing the standard Higgs-sector by the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism, and at the same time ensure perturbative naturalness throug…

On the validity of the perturbative description of axions during inflation

Ricardo Z. Ferreira, Jonathan Ganc, Jorge Noreña +1

Axions play a central role in many realizations of large field models of inflation and in recent alternative mechanisms for generating primordial tensor modes in small field models…

White Dwarf Critical Tests for Modified Gravity

Rajeev Kumar Jain, Chris Kouvaris, Niklas Grønlund Nielsen

Scalar-tensor theories of gravity can lead to modifications of the gravitational force inside astrophysical objects. We exhibit that compact stars such as white dwarfs provide a un…

The Tangled Nature Model of evolutionary dynamics reconsidered: structural and dynamical effects of trait inheritance

Christian Walther Andersen, Paolo Sibani

The Tangled Nature Model of biological and cultural evolution features interacting agents which compete for limited resources and reproduce in an error prone fashion and at a rate…

Quantum Critical Behaviour of Semi-Simple Gauge Theories

Jacob Kamuk Esbensen, Thomas A. Ryttov, Francesco Sannino

We study the perturbative phase diagram of semi-simple fermionic gauge theories resembling the Standard Model. We investigate an gauge theory with Dirac flavors where w…

Self-excitation of surface plasmon polaritons

V. G. Bordo

The novel effect of self-excitation of surface plasmons (SESP) in a plasmonic nanocavity is predicted and its theory is developed from first principles. It is assumed that the cavi…

Template Composite Dark Matter : SU(2) gauge theory with 2 fundamental flavours

Vincent Drach, Ari Hietanen, Claudio Pica +2

We present a non perturbative study of SU(2) gauge theory with two fundamental Dirac flavours. We discuss how the model can be used as a template for composite Dark Matter (DM). We…

Wilson Fermions with Four Fermion Interactions

Jarno Rantaharju, Vincent Drach, Ari Hietanen +2

We present a lattice study of a four fermion theory, known as Nambu Jona-Lasinio (NJL) theory, via Wilson fermions. Four fermion interactions naturally occur in several extensions…

Quasidiagonal traces on exact -algebras

James Gabe

Recently, it was proved by Tikuisis, White and Winter that any faithful trace on a separable, nuclear -algebras in the UCT class is quasidiagonal. Building on their work, w…

Planckian Interacting Massive Particles as Dark Matter

Mathias Garny, McCullen Sandora, Martin S. Sloth

The Standard Model could be self-consistent up to the Planck scale according to the present measurements of the Higgs mass and top quark Yukawa coupling. It is therefore possible t…

Radiatively Induced Fermi Scale in Grand Unified Theories

Tommi Alanne, Aurora Meroni, Francesco Sannino +1

We consider Grand Unified Theories in which the hierarchy between the unification and the Fermi scale emerges radiatively. Within the Pati-Salam framework, we show that it is possi…
