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 establishes an -duality converse to prior work by proving that the -dual of the action of on their tautological representations is the symplectic mirabolic space acting on and its tautological representations, while also formulating a corresponding global conjecture for the categorical theta-correspondence.
This paper demonstrates that within the Effective Field Theory of inflation, one-loop gravitational corrections to primordial power spectra can be fully renormalized using dimensional regularization, resulting in exactly conserved scalar and tensor spectra on super-horizon scales and proving that propagation speeds remain immune to radiative corrections from gravitational nonlinearities.
This paper establishes a correspondence between the gravitational phase space at null infinity and near a black hole horizon, identifying celestial symmetries in the latter's subleading phase space to reveal an infinite tower of conserved charges and new gravitational observables.
Using the effective field theory of inflationary fluctuations, this paper explicitly proves for the first time that the renormalized one-loop power spectrum of the primordial curvature perturbation freezes exactly on super-horizon scales, thereby confirming the quantum-level validity of the conservation law essential for inflationary predictions.
This paper extends the authors' formalism of elliptic virtual structure constants to encompass hypersurfaces and complete intersections within weighted projective spaces that possess a single Kähler class.
This paper establishes a direct relationship between the non-stabilizing power of generic quantum circuits and their constituent non-Clifford gates, demonstrating how random Clifford operations drive the thermalization of non-stabilizerness to its Haar-averaged value and elucidating its critical role in the emergence of quantum chaos.
This paper constructs explicit free-field realizations of Carrollian -algebras via Miura transformation contractions, distinguishing between flipped and symmetric quantum cases that respectively recover Galilean isomorphisms and yield distinct algebras with classical structure constants, thereby providing essential tools for studying extended symmetries in Carrollian conformal field theories and flat space holography.
This paper formulates a stochastic generalization of the Schwinger effect to compute vacuum decay rates and particle number densities in transient, inhomogeneous, and fluctuating gauge-field backgrounds, providing closed-form analytical expressions for scalar and fermionic cases with applications to cosmological and astrophysical scenarios.
This paper investigates the impact of Barrow's fractal entropy parameter on the Joule-Thomson expansion and inversion temperature of quantum-corrected AdS-Reissner-Nordström black holes in Kiselev spacetime, utilizing numerical solutions to analyze temperature-pressure relationships and isenthalpic curves.
This paper investigates the non-Abelian extension of ModMax electrodynamics by demonstrating the existence of self-dual instantons in various curved backgrounds, constructing multi-instanton solutions through perturbative methods, and deriving new gravitating configurations such as Euclidean wormholes when coupled to gravity.
