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 thermodynamic and optical properties of Einstein-Dyonic-ModMax black holes by incorporating Generalized Uncertainty Principle corrections and plasma effects, revealing that non-linear electrodynamics and quantum gravity modifications lead to stable remnants, frequency-dependent lensing signatures, and rich phase transition structures.
This paper generalizes spurion analysis to non-invertible fusion algebras, specifically near-group types like Fibonacci and Ising, by introducing a systematic labeling scheme for coupling constants that explains the radiative violation of tree-level selection rules and distinguishes these effects from those arising in lifted group symmetries.
This paper demonstrates that critical points between distinct, featureless bosonic atomic insulators in dimensions can host emergent conformally invariant quantum electrodynamics (QED) states, stabilized by lattice symmetries that suppress monopole proliferation, thereby revealing rich physics even in transitions between trivial phases.
This paper demonstrates that the holographic entanglement entropy of massive Chern-Simons fields in , calculated via the Faulkner-Lewkowycz-Maldacena formula with vanishing edge mode contributions, precisely matches the single-interval entanglement entropy of the dual primary operator and its descendants in large-charge CFTs, thereby resolving a discrepancy with earlier massless limit calculations.
This paper introduces a novel method using permutation defects between ground-state replicas to extract chiral topological properties, such as the chiral central charge and Hall conductance, directly from bulk wavefunctions, thereby bridging the gap between bulk entanglement measures and boundary anomalies for both numerical and quantum device applications.
This paper investigates a cosmological inflation model combining the Einstein-Hilbert action, Higgs potential, and a Gauss-Bonnet term with dilaton-like coupling, demonstrating through numerical analysis that the resulting inflationary observables align well with recent ACT DR6 data, whereas the model without the Gauss-Bonnet term reverts to chaotic inflation predictions.
This paper constructs a novel family of exact five-dimensional rotating Lifshitz black holes supported by electric and axionic charges, verifies their thermodynamic consistency, and demonstrates how rotation and the dynamical critical exponent influence holographic superconductivity in the dual system.
This paper presents a Palatini Supergravity model of induced-gravity Higgs inflation that is consistent with ACT DR6 data, successfully generates the parameter and non-thermal leptogenesis within a B-L MSSM extension, and predicts a split SUSY scenario with a PeV-scale gravitino mass compatible with LHC Higgs mass constraints.
This paper demonstrates that the quantized Chern-Simons couplings in three-dimensional F-theory compactifications provide a scheme-independent, one-loop exact encoding of all four-dimensional abelian anomalies and their Green-Schwarz cancellation, a result derived by matching flux-induced M-theory terms with explicit one-loop integrations and confirmed through compatibility with type IIB modular duality.
This paper proposes that the concept of Quasilocal Probability in curved spacetime induces horizon-driven non-Hermitian dynamics in black hole ringdowns, producing a unique, correlated set of observational signatures that can be distinguished from generic modified gravity effects and tested with upcoming gravitational wave data to probe the fundamental nature of quantum mechanical Hermiticity.
