Hep-Th, or high-energy theoretical physics, explores the fundamental building blocks of our universe and the forces that govern them. Researchers in this field use complex mathematics to understand everything from subatomic particles to the behavior of black holes, often pushing the boundaries of what we know about space and time.
At Gist.Science, we monitor the arXiv repository to ensure you stay ahead of the curve in this rapidly evolving discipline. For every new preprint uploaded to arXiv under this category, our team generates both accessible plain-language overviews and detailed technical summaries, making cutting-edge research understandable regardless of your background.
Below are the latest papers in high-energy theoretical physics, curated to help you navigate the most significant recent discoveries.
This paper investigates the linear transport signatures of dispersive pseudo-Landau levels in strained, tilted Dirac systems using the semiclassical Boltzmann framework, revealing finite longitudinal responses and validating the Mott relation and Wiedemann-Franz law to provide a unified framework for understanding strain-engineered quantum transport.
This paper investigates the asymptotic distribution of level crossings for random matrix pencils , deriving a deterministic limit for the empirical measure of crossings in complex and real ensembles by connecting spectral degeneracies to logarithmic energy and universality principles analogous to Girko's circular and Wigner's semicircle laws.
This paper proposes a semiclassical kernel-theoretic framework combining $BF$ and level- Chern-Simons theories to derive candidate modular kernels and Lagrangian algebra data, thereby identifying possible gaugings of continuous global symmetries with 't Hooft anomalies in quantum field theories.
This paper proposes that the symmetry category of a 2D quantum field theory with a 0-form -symmetry and 't Hooft anomaly is equivalent to the category of twisted measurable fields of Hilbert spaces over , and demonstrates that its Drinfeld center corresponds to the representation category of a twisted groupoid -algebra, thereby enabling the computation of bulk 3D SymTFT braiding and providing physical examples for both abelian and non-abelian Lie groups.
This paper presents an analytical construction of hairy meronic black hole solutions in four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Yang-Mills theory with a conformally coupled scalar field, generalizing the charged MTZ and AC solutions to include self-gravitating non-Abelian gauge fields and exploring their non-Noetherian extensions.
Using worldline effective field theory and the novel Sparse Integral Reducer (SpideR) integration algorithm, this paper derives the nonlocal-in-time conservative tail effects in gravitational scattering up to fifth Post-Minkowskian and tenth self-force orders, expressing the results in terms of multiple polylogarithms and confirming consistency with existing literature through sixth post-Newtonian order.
This paper argues that perturbative string theory admits no de Sitter solutions to all orders in and expansions, based on the assumption that the Gibbons-Hawking entropy formula holds and supported by evidence that the tree-level effective action vanishes for closed Euclidean target-space solutions.
This memorial paper presents the Starobinsky inflation model from a modern perspective, proposes its deformation for the production of primordial black holes, discusses quantum corrections within the framework of superstring theory and the Swampland program, and highlights its universal reheating mechanism.
This paper develops a general path-integral formalism for scalar thermal field theory in rotating equilibrium systems, demonstrating that angular momentum can significantly enhance particle production, such as Higgs boson production via dark sector couplings.
This paper proposes a new approach to the holomorphic modular bootstrap by utilizing the theory of vector-valued modular forms to generate and identify new admissible solutions for rational conformal field theories.
