Mathematical physics sits at the fascinating intersection where abstract equations meet the fundamental laws of our universe. This field uses rigorous mathematical tools to model everything from the behavior of subatomic particles to the curvature of spacetime, turning complex theories into testable predictions. It is the language through which physicists describe reality, bridging the gap between pure mathematics and physical observation.

This paper extends the recent analysis of the one-loop Amplituhedron's geometry to the two-loop four-point case, elucidating its algebraic structure, face stratification, residual arrangement, and the existence and uniqueness of its adjoint.
This paper establishes a derived equivalence between the category of Lagrangian -branes on the -character variety of a four-punctured sphere and the representation category of the spherical DAHA of type by utilizing brane quantization to reveal an affine braid group action of type , thereby offering new insights into the low-energy dynamics of SU(2) Seiberg-Witten theory.
Motivated by quantum field theory on curved spacetimes, this paper computes the polarisation sets of the kernel distributions for advanced, retarded, and difference Green operators of normally hyperbolic operators on vector bundles, thereby extending these results to related equations like the Proca equation and correcting a gap in recent literature.
This paper investigates the reduced density matrices of -party pure quantum states derived from torus link complements in SU(2) Chern-Simons theory, demonstrating that their characteristic polynomials are monic with rational coefficients.
This paper presents a bootstrap program that iteratively solves for the -matrix of a generic integrable quantum spin chain from its Hamiltonian using the Yang-Baxter equation and Kennedy's lemma, offering both a reconstruction method and a potential integrability test, though it remains unclear if the infinite higher-order constraints are strictly implied by the lowest-order Reshetikhin condition.
This paper constructs fundamental solutions for arbitrarily sized upper-triangular Fuchsian systems with eigenvalues in arithmetic progression by expressing their superdiagonal entries as contour integrals of meromorphic differentials on compactified superelliptic curves, thereby proving the isomonodromic nature of these solutions.
This paper introduces a robust optimisation framework that combines variational residual minimisation with a resolvent-based Galerkin projection to efficiently compute invariant solutions, such as equilibria and periodic orbits, for wall-bounded flows like rotating plane Couette flow.
This paper demonstrates that a Thurston-based theory of gravity admits shear-free and static solutions across all Bianchi-Kantowski-Sachs topologies and ensures isotropization with a positive cosmological constant while preventing recollapse under the weak energy condition, thereby resolving specific limitations of General Relativity without introducing additional parameters.
This paper establishes the uniqueness and logarithmic stability of recovering the bottom shape of water waves from surface measurements and boundary data on a bounded domain, without additional assumptions for uniqueness and under a local fatness condition for stability.
This paper introduces a new mechanism called "symmetry spans," where a global symmetry embedded into two larger symmetries enforces infrared gaplessness when no compatible gapped phase exists, offering a powerful tool to establish symmetry-enforced gaplessness even with discrete and non-anomalous continuous symmetries.
