Strong coupling structure of N=4\mathcal{N}=4 SYM observables with matrix Bessel kernel

This paper reveals a simple underlying structure in the strong coupling transseries of N=4\mathcal{N}=4 SYM observables with a matrix Bessel kernel, providing an efficient method to generate full transseries expansions for quantities like the cusp anomalous dimension and octagon form factor while verifying their resurgence structure through high-precision numerical analysis.

Relativistic Elastic Response to Gravitational Waves: Explicit Solutions for a Rectangular Plate

This paper presents a fully relativistic derivation of the elastic response of a thin rectangular plate to gravitational waves, yielding explicit closed-form solutions for induced displacements and energy deposition in materials with a vanishing Poisson ratio, alongside the computation of secondary gravitational wave emission from the oscillating plate.

Hypercomplex Yang-Mills Theory as a Bipartite Gauge Field Model

This paper proposes a non-Abelian gauge field framework based on hypercomplex ring formalism that introduces non-compact hyperbolic symmetries to double internal degrees of freedom, thereby enabling the description of bipartite gauge systems and field dissipation while utilizing a commutative ring to decouple algebraic structures and facilitate solutions to the equations of motion.
