This paper proposes that semiclassical baby universes in AdS/CFT function as logical qubits encoded via pseudorandom dynamics, which resolves paradoxes of state cloning and singularity fate by ensuring that their microstates remain inaccessible to any single boundary observer through emergent complementarity.
This paper derives perturbative corrections to the Weinberg soft graviton theorem and the supertranslation Ward identity for tree-level scattering in the static patch of de Sitter space, demonstrating that the corrected Ward identity consistently reduces to the soft theorem in the small cosmological constant limit.
This paper resolves the ambiguity of field space geometry in gravitational effective field theories by developing a frame-covariant framework that interprets conformal frames as distinct foliations of a higher-dimensional auxiliary geometry, thereby demonstrating that key Swampland Distance Conjectures are universal consequences of frame covariance rather than specific quantum gravity constraints.
This paper investigates the vacuum expectation values of the field squared and energy-momentum tensor for a charged scalar field on a (2+1)-dimensional Beltrami pseudosphere with a compactified azimuthal coordinate, revealing that while geometric contributions are divergent, topological effects are finite and exhibit distinct power-law behaviors depending on the field mass, curvature coupling, and compactification scale.
This paper investigates how a time-dependent Newton constant and non-conserved energy-momentum tensor, constrained by the Bianchi identity and thermodynamic principles, lead to specific power-law relations between and black hole mass that determine the black hole's evaporation behavior and temperature evolution based on the chosen entropy definition.
This paper presents a coordinate-invariant formalism using eigenmode expansion to model the interaction between gravitational waves and resonant detectors, specifically deriving coupling coefficients that account for damping and back-action to facilitate numerical analysis of high-frequency experiments in arbitrary electromagnetic cavity geometries.
This paper presents a new family of multi-centered extremal rotating black hole solutions in five-dimensional vacuum Einstein gravity, constructed by promoting harmonic functions of the Myers-Perry solution to multiple sources, which yield smooth, singularity-free spacetimes with bubble-supported binary configurations and no closed timelike curves.
This paper demonstrates that the symmetric and broken phases of scalar theory are related by a sign flip of the quartic coupling through the construction of interacting saddle point expansions, a finding that recovers known phase diagram results for dimensions below four and potentially offers new insights for four dimensions.
By modeling black hole evaporation through metastring theory's metaparticles as entangled geometric and dual sectors, this paper demonstrates that enforcing entropy reality naturally yields a minimal horizon area, resulting in a finite maximal temperature and a stable, non-singular remnant that is fundamentally non-geometric in nature.
This paper demonstrates that force-free electrodynamics in Minkowski spacetime possesses conformal symmetry under Möbius transformations, which links known solutions by mapping the interior of a magnetospheric horizon to the exterior of its dual counterpart.
This paper presents a method for calculating entanglement entropy in models at finite density by integrating the replica trick with worm algorithm Monte Carlo simulations, showcasing initial results for the 3D nonlinear model.
This paper identifies mathematical paradoxes in the Foldy-Wouthuysen and Feynman-Gell-Mann representations of the Dirac equation for electrons and positrons in electromagnetic fields and proposes that these contradictions are resolved by restricting the theory to positive-energy amplitude states.
This paper demonstrates that while the lowest-order Blandford-Znajek jet power is universal across generic stationary and axisymmetric black-hole spacetimes, the next-leading-order corrections depend on the specific spacetime geometry, offering a potential method to distinguish rapidly rotating black holes through combined measurements of jet luminosity and angular velocity.
This paper proposes a continuum QED description with emergent symmetries for the multicritical point in a staggered Fradkin-Shenker model, demonstrating how it connects to the original model and establishing a duality with the easy-plane model that implies a deconfined quantum multicritical point separating a gapped spin liquid from a Néel phase.
This paper introduces a Koopman-Krylov framework based on the Koopman-von Neumann description and gEDMD approximation to characterize non-integrable semiclassical string dynamics, demonstrating how integrability-breaking deformations induce observable-dependent delocalization and spectral weight redistribution in Krylov space.
This paper initiates a lightcone bootstrap analysis of the three-point function involving two bulk and one defect operator in defect conformal field theory, revealing two new families of twist-accumulating defect operators at large transverse spin required to reproduce the leading-twist bulk exchange.
This paper establishes that general actions for extended objects depending on both worldvolume and induced metrics are classically equivalent to the Nambu-Goto action, demonstrating that volume-preserving diffeomorphism symmetry is as physically constraining as full diffeomorphism symmetry across Riemannian, areal, and volume-metric spacetimes.
This paper investigates Maxwell electrodynamics with an additive CPT-even Lorentz-violating term by deriving modified conservation laws and analyzing the resulting corrections to the Compton effect.
This paper introduces Lovelock-type brane gravity (LBG) as a second-order extension of geodetic brane gravity within an elasticity framework, demonstrating how it can be reformulated as mimetic embedding gravity where a fictional current generates an effective energy-momentum tensor with perfect fluid characteristics.
This paper demonstrates that while naive attempts to extend quantum time schemes to quantum field theory fail due to hidden covariance, a novel quantum-action-based quantization successfully yields a manifestly covariant spacetime quantum mechanics by redefining quantum states in a way that respects causality and aligns with recent proposals on timelike entanglement.
