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…
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…
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…
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…
