On Quantum Aspects of 1-Form Symmetries II: Bordism, Invertible Phases, and Anomalies

Weizhen Jia, Yi-Nan Wang, Yi Zhang

We study quantum anomalies associated with 1-form symmetries from the perspective of invertible phases and bordism. We compute the oriented and spin bordism groups of the Ei…

On Quantum Aspects of 1-Form Symmetries I: BV-BRST Cohomology and Anomaly Polynomials

Weizhen Jia, Yi-Nan Wang, Yi Zhang

We investigate the quantum aspects of gauging continuous 1-form global symmetries. In this paper, we study the BV-BRST quantization of a 2-form gauge field, described geomet…

Detecting Symmetry-Resolved Entanglement: A Quantum Monte Carlo Approach

Kuangjie Chen, Weizhen Jia, Xiaopeng Li +2

Symmetry and entanglement are two fundamental concepts in quantum many-body physics. Their interplay is captured by symmetry-resolved entanglement, which decomposes the total entan…

Entanglement Entropy and Thermodynamics of Dynamical Black Holes

Weizhen Jia, Qiongyu Qi, Christina Gao

We explore the thermodynamic and entanglement properties of dynamical black holes based on the recently proposed dynamical black hole entropy by Hollands-Wald-Zhang. We first provi…

Radiation in Fluid/Gravity and the Flat Limit

Gabriel Arenas-Henriquez, Luca Ciambelli, Felipe Diaz +2

We explore asymptotically locally anti-de Sitter spacetimes exhibiting gravitational radiative behavior, employing null gauges that allow for a well-defined flat limit. The radiati…

Torsional Hall Viscosity of Massive Chern Insulators: Magnetic Field and Momentum Deformations

Ioannis Matthaiakakis, Weizhen Jia, Raffael L. Klees +5

This work focuses on the non-dissipative, parity-odd spin transport of -dimensional relativistic electrons, generated by torsion, and the torsional Hall viscosity $ζ_{\rm H}…

Topics in Weyl Geometry and Quantum Anomalies

Weizhen Jia

The first part of this thesis focuses on the Weyl-covariant nature of holography. We generalize the Fefferman-Graham ambient construction for conformal geometry to a corresponding…

BRST Cohomology is Lie Algebroid Cohomology

Weizhen Jia, Marc S. Klinger, Robert G. Leigh

In this paper we demonstrate that the exterior algebra of an Atiyah Lie algebroid generalizes the familiar notions of the physicist's BRST complex. To reach this conclusion, we dev…

Weyl-Ambient Geometries

Weizhen Jia, Manthos Karydas, Robert G. Leigh

Weyl geometry is a natural extension of conformal geometry with Weyl covariance mediated by a Weyl connection. We generalize the Fefferman-Graham (FG) ambient construction for conf…

Obstruction Tensors in Weyl Geometry and Holographic Weyl Anomaly

Weizhen Jia, Manthos Karydas

Recently a generalization of the Fefferman-Graham gauge for asymptotically locally AdS spacetimes, called the Weyl-Fefferman-Graham (WFG) gauge, has been proposed. It was shown tha…

Entanglement Entropy of A Simple Non-minimal Coupling Model

Bing Sun, Weizhen Jia, Xingyang Yu

We evaluate the entanglement entropy of a non-minimal coupling Einstein-scalar theory with two approaches in classical Euclidean gravity. By analysing the equation of motion, we fi…
