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 provides a new construction of the triplet vertex operator algebra using the theory of commutative algebras in braided tensor categories, ultimately proving that its automorphism group is and characterizing a specific category of Virasoro modules related to its representation theory.
This paper demonstrates that the voter model exhibits aging behavior and dynamical scaling functions consistent with the non-equilibrium Schrödinger algebra, providing a paradigm for relaxation in critical dynamics without detailed balance.
This paper investigates how astrophysical matter environments influence the spectral instabilities of horizonless exotic compact objects, finding that while such environments can destabilize certain modes—specifically overtones and loosely-compact objects—the fundamental modes of ultra-compact objects remain remarkably robust.
This paper develops a systematic method to transform one-loop integrands from a non-local form into a form featuring quadratic propagators and local vertices by utilizing the forward limit of bi-adjoint scalar amplitudes, ultimately demonstrating that these integrands for gravity and Einstein-Yang-Mills theories inherit a double-copy structure.
This paper investigates the derivation and properties of exact BPS double-kink solutions in -dimensional scalar field theories by introducing a generalizing function to the , , and sine-Gordon models.
This paper investigates the analytical properties of (2+1)-dimensional Weyl fermions on Lifshitz backgrounds, specifically demonstrating how geometric phases emerge from field-geometry coupling and providing exact solutions for fermionic zero modes through a supersymmetric approach.
This paper proposes a non-Hermitian pilot-wave formulation of quantum theory that realizes Weyl's concept of local scale invariance by complexifying the electromagnetic gauge coupling, resulting in scale-invariant physical predictions across various quantum frameworks.
This paper derives explicit formulas for four-point correlation functions involving fractional R-symmetry excitations in the D1-D5 CFT by mapping them to sums of integer-mode excitations on a covering surface using Bell polynomials.
This paper investigates the -dimensional Dirac oscillator within a framework of linear-fractional doubly special relativity, deriving exact energy spectra and eigenfunctions for three different deformation geometries while demonstrating how the choice of geometry influences the nonrelativistic limit.
This paper introduces a new mathematical framework combining spectral and split representations to factorize multi-loop diagrams in de Sitter space, enabling the resummation of massive scalar loop contributions and the direct identification of cosmological collider signals.
