Efficient Conformal Block Evaluation with GoBlocks

This paper introduces GoBlocks\texttt{GoBlocks}, a high-performance Go-based tool for rapidly evaluating conformal blocks in odd spacetime dimensions via recursive relations, demonstrating significant speed improvements over existing packages and successfully applying the method to optimize the mixed-correlator bootstrap of the 3D Ising model and O(N)O(N) vector models.

From path integral quantization to stochastic quantization: a pedestrian's journey

This paper establishes the equivalence between path integral and stochastic quantizations for generic scalar Euclidean quantum field theories by providing two novel proofs based on Taylor interpolations indexed by forests: one operating at the level of individual Feynman expansion terms and the other directly at the path integral level without requiring a full perturbative expansion.

N=1\mathcal{N}=1 Jackiw -Teitelboim supergravity beyond the Schwarzian regime

This paper investigates the asymptotic symmetry structure of N=1\mathcal{N}=1 Jackiw-Teitelboim supergravity within a BF framework, demonstrating how the dilaton supermultiplet dynamically reduces the affine osp(12)\mathfrak{osp}(1|2) symmetry to a specific subalgebra with an abelian ideal, thereby providing a consistent bulk-based framework for studying boundary dynamics beyond the Schwarzian regime.

Holomorphic supergravity in ten dimensions and anomaly cancellation

This paper formulates a ten-dimensional holomorphic supergravity on a Calabi-Yau five-fold that reproduces heterotic moduli equations, exhibits factorized anomalies reconstructing a double-extension complex for moduli counting, and is conjectured to be an SU(5)SU(5)-twisted version of N=1N=1 supergravity related to the Costello-Li theory.

The trichotomy of primordial black holes initial conditions

This paper demonstrates that the threshold for primordial black hole formation in a radiation-dominated universe depends not only on the compaction function but also on the spatial curvature of the core, leading to a trichotomy of initial conditions (open, closed, or flat) that significantly influence formation probabilities, mass spectra, and the potential connection to Type-II black holes and the NanoGrav signal.

Relation between leading divergences in nonrenormalizable $4D$ supersymmetric theories

Using Slavnov's higher covariant derivative regularization, this paper demonstrates that in a nonrenormalizable N=1{\cal N}=1 supersymmetric gauge theory with a quartic superpotential, the leading quadratically divergent correction to the gauge coupling is proportional to the correction of the matter kinetic term, establishing a relation analogous to the exact NSVZ β\beta-function.
