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 presents exact, horizonless traversable wormhole solutions in massive gravity by combining a perturbative dRGT graviton-mass term with various redshift profiles, demonstrating that the additional anisotropic pressure from the mass term can sustain the wormhole throat while satisfying or minimally violating energy conditions.
This paper establishes a generalized crystalline equivalence principle that proves an equivalence between topological quantum field theories (TQFTs) with spatial -symmetry and those with internal symmetry, while simultaneously providing a unified framework for defining and classifying anomalies in both spatial and categorical symmetry contexts.
This paper presents a mathematical framework extending symmetry reduction to classical field theories within the De Donder-Weyl multisymplectic formalism, allowing for the identification and removal of redundant, empirically inaccessible global scale degrees of freedom while preserving Lorentz covariance.
This paper demonstrates that Krylov complexity in the DSSYK model exhibits the switchback effect and universal late-time linear growth, establishing its holographic dual as the geodesic length of an Einstein-Rosen bridge in semiclassical JT gravity with shockwave insertions.
This paper demonstrates that the supersymmetric index of SYM on can be recovered from gravity computations via equivariant localization by constructing complex, non-extremal AlAdS black holes and gluing them to horizonless geometries to eliminate Casimir energy contributions.
This paper presents a domain adaptation pipeline that significantly improves the accuracy of classifying real SDSS galaxy morphologies by training on simulated TNG50 images and employing a combination of feature-level optimal transport losses, including a novel top- soft matching mechanism, to effectively bridge the simulation-to-reality gap.
This paper investigates the macroscopic backreaction of quantum fields in the Boulware vacuum on Schwarzschild spacetime by applying an order-reduction procedure to the Riegert–Mottola–Vaulin renormalized stress-energy tensor derived from the conformal anomaly, while ensuring stress-energy conservation and comparing the results with recent literature.
This paper investigates the spectral stability of total transmission modes in -dimensional Tangherlini black holes using pseudospectrum analysis, revealing that while these modes are generally unstable like quasinormal modes, a specific purely imaginary mode exhibits enhanced stability and that genuinely complex families emerge in dimensions .
This paper establishes on-shell representations for split tree-level scattering amplitudes across various theories and demonstrates that the 2-split behavior persists in gauge and gravity theories with higher-dimensional operators, thereby reinforcing its universal nature while generalizing transmuting operators to higher-derivative contexts.
This paper presents an explicit closed-form description of dynamical extreme Reissner-Nordstrom black holes by utilizing two-dimensional Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity to model non-linear s-wave dynamics near an throat, demonstrating how these singularity-free solutions approach a static extreme horizon while exhibiting the linear Aretakis instability and emitting a final burst of scalar flux.
