Taming the Landscape of Effective Theories

Thomas W. Grimm

We introduce a generalized notion of finiteness that provides a structural principle for the set of effective theories that can be consistently coupled to quantum gravity. More con…

Momentum-dependent scaling exponents of nodal self-energies measured in strange metal cuprates and modelled using semi-holography

S. Smit, E. Mauri, L. Bawden +13

The anomalous strange metal phase found in high- cuprates does not follow the conventional condensed-matter principles enshrined in the Fermi liquid and presents a great chall…

Analytic long-lived modes in charged critical plasma

Umut Gursoy, Matti Järvinen, Giuseppe Policastro +1

Fluctuations around critical behavior of a holographic charged plasmas are investigated by studying quasi-normal modes of the corresponding black branes in 5D Einstein-Maxwell-Dila…

The Complexity of Data-Driven Norm Synthesis and Revision

Davide Dell'Anna, Natasha Alechina, Brian Logan +3

Norms have been widely proposed as a way of coordinating and controlling the activities of agents in a multi-agent system (MAS). A norm specifies the behaviour an agent should foll…

On symplectic transformations

T A Springer

This is an English translation, prepared by Wilberd van der Kallen, of the 1951 thesis by T.A. Springer. In this thesis Springer studied the classification of conjugacy classes in…

Moduli Stabilization in Asymptotic Flux Compactifications

Thomas W. Grimm, Erik Plauschinn, Damian van de Heisteeg

We present a novel strategy to systematically study complex-structure moduli stabilization in Type IIB and F-theory flux compactifications. In particular, we determine vacua in any…

Interplay between risk perception, behaviour, and COVID-19 spread

Philipp Dönges, Joel Wagner, Sebastian Contreras +9

Pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) have been crucial for controlling COVID-19. They are complemented by voluntary health-protective behaviour, building a co…

Lower bounds for Ramsey numbers as a statistical physics problem

Jurriaan Wouters, Aris Giotis, Ross Kang +2

Ramsey's theorem, concerning the guarantee of certain monochromatic patterns in large enough edge-coloured complete graphs, is a fundamental result in combinatorial mathematics. In…

ADJUST: A Dictionary-Based Joint Reconstruction and Unmixing Method for Spectral Tomography

Mathé T. Zeegers, Ajinkya Kadu, Tristan van Leeuwen +1

Advances in multi-spectral detectors are causing a paradigm shift in X-ray Computed Tomography (CT). Spectral information acquired from these detectors can be used to extract volum…

Narrowband searches for continuous and long-duration transient gravitational waves from known pulsars in the LIGO-Virgo third observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1658

Isolated neutron stars that are asymmetric with respect to their spin axis are possible sources of detectable continuous gravitational waves. This paper presents a fully-coherent s…

Descent for internal multicategory functors

Rui Prezado, Fernando Lucatelli Nunes

We give sufficient conditions for effective descent in categories of (generalized) internal multicategories. Two approaches to study effective descent morphisms are pursued. The fi…

VALSE: A Task-Independent Benchmark for Vision and Language Models Centered on Linguistic Phenomena

Letitia Parcalabescu, Michele Cafagna, Lilitta Muradjan +3

We propose VALSE (Vision And Language Structured Evaluation), a novel benchmark designed for testing general-purpose pretrained vision and language (V&L) models for their visio-lin…

Finiteness for self-dual classes in integral variations of Hodge structure

Benjamin Bakker, Thomas W. Grimm, Christian Schnell +1

We generalize the finiteness theorem for the locus of Hodge classes with fixed self-intersection number, due to Cattani, Deligne, and Kaplan, from Hodge classes to self-dual classe…

Tests of General Relativity with GWTC-3

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1682

The ever-increasing number of detections of gravitational waves (GWs) from compact binaries by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors allows us to perform ever-more sensiti…

Material radiopurity control in the XENONnT experiment

E. Aprile, K. Abe, F. Agostini +150

The selection of low-radioactive construction materials is of the utmost importance for rare-event searches and thus critical to the XENONnT experiment. Results of an extensive rad…

Uncovering the Size of the Illegal Corporate Service Provider Industry in the Netherlands: a Network Approach

Javier Garcia-Bernardo, Joost Witteman, Marilou Vlaanderen

Economic crimes such as money laundering, terrorism financing, tax evasion or corruption almost invariably involve the use of a corporate entity. Such entities are regularly incorp…

Large Logarithms from Quantum Gravitational Corrections to a Massless, Minimally Coupled Scalar on de Sitter

D. Glavan, S. P. Miao, T. Prokopec +1

We consider single graviton loop corrections to the effective field equation of a massless, minimally coupled scalar on de Sitter background in the simplest gauge. We find a large…

Production of light (anti)nuclei in pp collisions at TeV

ALICE Collaboration

The study of the production of nuclei and antinuclei in pp collisions has proven to be a powerful tool to investigate the formation mechanism of loosely bound states in high-energy…

Deformed WZW Models and Hodge Theory -- Part I

Thomas W. Grimm, Jeroen Monnee

We investigate a relationship between a particular class of two-dimensional integrable non-linear -models and variations of Hodge structures. Concretely, our aim is to study the…

Streaming Deletion Problems Parameterized by Vertex Cover

Jelle J. Oostveen, Erik Jan van Leeuwen

Streaming is a model where an input graph is provided one edge at a time, instead of being able to inspect it at will. In this work, we take a parameterized approach by assuming a…
