Gravitational Waves from Dark Yang-Mills Sectors
James Halverson, Cody Long, Anindita Maiti +2
Dark Yang-Mills sectors, which are ubiquitous in the string landscape, may be reheated above their critical temperature and subsequently go through a confining first-order phase tr…
Learning to Unknot
Sergei Gukov, James Halverson, Fabian Ruehle +1
We introduce natural language processing into the study of knot theory, as made natural by the braid word representation of knots. We study the UNKNOT problem of determining whethe…
Neural Networks and Quantum Field Theory
James Halverson, Anindita Maiti, Keegan Stoner
We propose a theoretical understanding of neural networks in terms of Wilsonian effective field theory. The correspondence relies on the fact that many asymptotic neural networks a…
Constraints on Standard Model Constructions in F-theory
Mirjam Cvetic, James Halverson, Ling Lin +1
We argue that the following three statements cannot all be true: (i) our vacuum is a type IIB / F-theory vacuum at moderate-to-large , (ii) the -expansion is controlle…
Statistical Predictions in String Theory and Deep Generative Models
James Halverson, Cody Long
Generative models in deep learning allow for sampling probability distributions that approximate data distributions. We propose using generative models for making approximate stati…
