Fermionic trace relations and supersymmetric indices at finite
Giorgos Eleftheriou, Ziming Ji, Sameer Murthy
We study invariants of bosonic and fermionic (Grassmann-valued) matrices under the adjoint action of , weighted by the fermion number. Such models naturally appear as the sup…
Probing the Critical Point (CritPt) of AI Reasoning: a Frontier Physics Research Benchmark
Minhui Zhu, Minyang Tian, Xiaocheng Yang +61
While large language models (LLMs) with reasoning capabilities are progressing rapidly on high-school math competitions and coding, can they reason effectively through complex, ope…
F-theorem for Quantum Field Theories in Anti-de Sitter Space
Davide Bason, Christian Copetti, Lorenzo Di Pietro +2
We introduce a regularized free energy for massive quantum field theories (QFTs) on Anti-de Sitter space (AdS). We conjecture this quantity to be monoton…
Super Yang-Mills in AdS and -maximization
Davide Bason, Christian Copetti, Lorenzo Di Pietro +1
We investigate the dynamics of four-dimensional super Yang--Mills theory on an AdS background. We propose that the boundary conditions that preserve the AdS…
