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 applies a momentum-space Daubechies wavelet basis within the Hamiltonian framework to investigate nonperturbative dynamics in -dimensional theory, successfully reproducing the strong-coupling phase transition and demonstrating systematic convergence of the critical coupling as momentum resolution increases.
This paper classifies the non-Abelian conformal anomaly of the Euclidean conformal group in dimensions by using the Stora-Zumino descent method applied to the Euler invariant, thereby establishing a formal connection between conformal anomalies, type-A Weyl anomalies, and 't Hooft anomaly matching.
This article constructs a graph model for covariant holographic entropies in time-dependent spacetimes by identifying a geometric condition that incorporates exposed regions and prevents unphysical shortcuts, thereby proving the equivalence between covariant and static holographic entropy cones and paving the way toward a complete covariant construction.
This paper constructs the asymptotic gauge charges for the Curtright mixed-symmetry field interpreted as a dual graviton in five-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, revealing a charge algebra that forms an abelian extension of a BMS-like algebra with a higher-spin supertranslation sector when restricted to specific symmetry generators on the sphere at null infinity.
This paper generalizes a recent observation in Super-Yang-Mills theory to prove that off-shell massless scalar three-point Feynman integrals are self-dual under Fourier transformation, thereby establishing their representation as graphical functions and deriving new identities for graphical functions and twist relations in theory.
This paper updates the holomorphic modular bootstrap by incorporating exact S-matrix results to systematically classify admissible and tenable solutions for modular linear differential equations with up to six characters and effective central charge up to 24, ultimately identifying their corresponding conformal field theories and modular tensor categories.
This paper develops an effective light-front mass-squared operator for quark-antiquark systems that incorporates nonperturbative QCD dynamics through a running quark mass derived from lattice-QCD-inspired propagators, applying this framework to study the structure of the pion.
This paper presents an invariant characterization of the Kerr spacetime that utilizes a specific function to identify and efficiently compute the properties of spherical photon orbits and other geometrically significant surfaces, such as ergosurfaces and horizons.
The paper proposes that the complex invariant mass spectrum observed in high-energy Pb-emulsion collisions can be explained as signatures of neutral color-singlet quark matter in both its deconfined and confined QED(U(1)) phases.
This paper utilizes the ADM formulation to perform a small- expansion of general relativity up to next-to-next-to-leading order, providing a systematic framework for constructing exact stationary vacuum solutions in both strong- and weak-gravity regimes, including corrections to Kerr and C-metric geometries.
