Topological Echoes of Primordial Physics in the Universe at Large Scales
Alex Cole, Matteo Biagetti, Gary Shiu
We present a pipeline for characterizing and constraining initial conditions in cosmology via persistent homology. The cosmological observable of interest is the cosmic web of larg…
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…
Simulation-efficient marginal posterior estimation with swyft: stop wasting your precious time
Benjamin Kurt Miller, Alex Cole, Gilles Louppe +1
We present algorithms (a) for nested neural likelihood-to-evidence ratio estimation, and (b) for simulation reuse via an inhomogeneous Poisson point process cache of parameters and…
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…
