Interpretable Phase Detection and Classification with Persistent Homology
Alex Cole, Gregory J. Loges, Gary Shiu
We apply persistent homology to the task of discovering and characterizing phase transitions, using lattice spin models from statistical physics for working examples. Persistence i…
A New Spin on the Weak Gravity Conjecture
Lars Aalsma, Alex Cole, Gregory J. Loges +1
The mild form of the Weak Gravity Conjecture states that quantum or higher-derivative corrections should decrease the mass of large extremal charged black holes at fixed charge. Th…
Quantitative and Interpretable Order Parameters for Phase Transitions from Persistent Homology
Alex Cole, Gregory J. Loges, Gary Shiu
We apply modern methods in computational topology to the task of discovering and characterizing phase transitions. As illustrations, we apply our method to four two-dimensional lat…
Duality and Supersymmetry Constraints on the Weak Gravity Conjecture
Gregory J. Loges, Toshifumi Noumi, Gary Shiu
Positivity bounds coming from consistency of UV scattering amplitudes are in general insufficient to prove the weak gravity conjecture for theories beyond Einstein-Maxwell. Additio…
