Lie Algebra Saddles in the IKKT Matrix Model and Criteria for the Emergence of Time
Henry Liao
In the IKKT matrix model, the dimension, geometry, and metric signature of spacetime must emerge from the matrix dynamics. We classify the Lie-algebraic saddles of the model: class…
Nonperturbative Stabilization of D-Instantons in the Bosonic IIB Matrix Model
Yu-An Chen, Hikaru Kawai, Henry Liao +1
We study the bosonic type IIB (IKKT) matrix model and the fate of the D-instanton positions , the diagonal components of the Hermitian matrices, whose one-loop effec…
General Actions of Extended Objects and Volume-Preserving Diffeomorphism
Pei-Ming Ho, Hikaru Kawai, Henry Liao
We consider actions that are general functions of the worldsheet/worldvolume metric and the induced metric for extended objects embedded in spacetime as Riemannian manifolds, areal…
A New Type of Saddle in the Euclidean IKKT Matrix Model and Its Emergent Geometry
Henry Liao, Reishi Maeta
We study the equation of motion of the Euclidean IKKT matrix model, and realize a new type of classical saddle that only exists in limit. Under the assumption…
Bootstrapping non-unitary CFTs
Yu-tin Huang, Shao-Cheng Lee, Henry Liao +1
We introduce a non-unitary-compatible numerical bootstrap strategy based on the statistical stability of OPE data inferred from crossing at multiple cross-ratios. For a trial spect…
Building Machine Learning Challenges for Anomaly Detection in Science
Elizabeth G. Campolongo, Yuan-Tang Chou, Ekaterina Govorkova +148
Scientific discoveries are often made by finding a pattern or object that was not predicted by the known rules of science. Oftentimes, these anomalous events or objects that do not…
Contrasting Statistical Phase Estimation with the Variational Quantum Eigensolver in the era of Early Fault Tolerant Quantum Computation
Ming-Zhi Chung, Andreas Thomasen, Henry Liao +1
In this review, we give an overview of the proposed applications in the early-FTQC (EFTQC) era. Starting from the error correction architecture for EFTQC device, we first review th…
4D Weyl Anomaly and Diversity of the Interior Structure of Quantum Black Hole
Pei-Ming Ho, Hikaru Kawai, Henry Liao +1
We study the interior metric of 4D spherically symmetric static black holes by using the semi-classical Einstein equation and find a consistent class of geometries with large curva…
ALP Constraints in Gauged Supergravity
Shuntaro Aoki, Henry Liao
We discuss a possibility of restricting parameters in supergravity based on axion observations. We derive conditions that prepotential and gauge couplings should sa…
