Using extensive parallel-tempering Monte Carlo simulations, this study reveals that in the three-dimensional random-bond Ising model, a secondary percolation transition involving two equal-density clusters occurs above the thermodynamic ordering points, with the subsequent divergence of these cluster densities serving as a distinct percolation signature for the ferromagnetic and spin-glass phase transitions.
This study utilizes multi-point in-situ observations of Earth's bow shock to demonstrate that backstreaming ions create cavitons that facilitate the formation of a new quasi-parallel supercritical shock layer through the nonlinear growth driven by gyrating suprathermal ions and subsequent plasma compression.
This paper analytically and numerically solves the geodesic equations for null rays traversing the ring singularity of maximally extended Kerr spacetime to characterize the inner throat and forbidden polar bands, ultimately constructing simulated views for observers in the negative- domain that reveal strong image distortion and inversion.
This paper demonstrates that the phase separation dynamics of multicomponent fluid mixtures are fundamentally governed by topological constraints analogous to mathematical coloring problems, which in confined geometries can arrest hydrodynamic coalescence and lead to universal coarsening behavior.
This paper classifies the irreducible anyon sectors of Levin-Wen models over an arbitrary unitary fusion category by establishing a one-to-one correspondence with simple objects of the Drinfeld center and constructing explicit string operators via Drinfeld insertions to excite these anyons.
This report evaluates the accuracy and consistency of high-frequency ocean wave energy measurements across four buoy types, revealing that Datawell Waverider buoys systematically report higher energy levels than other models, a finding that holds true regardless of the specific metric or evaluation method used.
This paper establishes a unified framework linking projective limits of probability measures to direct limits of their symmetry groups, demonstrating how this connection characterizes the symmetries of infinite point processes and provides a streamlined derivation of random graph limits, including graphons, graphexes, and models with bounded average degrees.
This study demonstrates that applying automatic differentiation to a 21-equation model enables the efficient analysis of fully coupled 3D envelope instability in particle accelerators, revealing a previously unreported instability stopband caused by space-charge coupling that would otherwise require computationally intractable 441 equations to solve.
This paper presents a method to fabricate tunable, centimetric elastic capsules that function as macroscopic "elasto-drops" with adjustable effective surface tension, demonstrating that their dynamics are governed primarily by hoop stress rather than bending stiffness.
This paper employs bond-weighted tensor renormalization group calculations to demonstrate that dimensionless partition-function ratios for the Ising and Potts models obey finite-size scaling and yield critical values consistent with conformal field theory predictions, while also revealing logarithmic corrections in the four-state Potts model.
This paper presents a systematic study of fission barriers and static properties for even-even actinides from Th to Cf using the Warsaw macroscopic-microscopic model with a high-resolution Fourier-over-Spheroid parameterization, revealing good agreement with empirical data and identifying a distinct third hyperdeformed minimum in Thorium isotopes that is absent in heavier actinides.
This paper establishes a geometric control framework for boundary-catalytic branching processes by utilizing a Steklov spectral problem to determine the critical absorption rates required to balance population growth and achieve a steady state, while identifying a threshold beyond which such control becomes impossible.
This paper introduces minimal models, including the Arithmetic Ising Model and specific gas models, to demonstrate how entropic effects can drive generic high-energy states into ordered phases, resulting in spontaneous symmetry breaking at arbitrarily high temperatures.
This paper addresses the previously unexamined issue of volume divergences in the measure for Quadratic Gravity, demonstrating that these divergences cancel in the extremal limit similar to General Relativity, while also reviewing the complexities of renormalization in curved space and the conditions under which non-invariant measures can be justified.
This paper proposes an extended equivalence principle for matter-free gravitational sources to demonstrate that a degenerate Klinkhamer wormhole behaves like a test particle in a Schwarzschild field, inevitably collapsing from a long-lived traversable state into a nontraversable Einstein-Rosen wormhole.
This paper calculates the leading-order quantum amplitude for elastic meson-kink scattering in the double-well model, revealing a resonance pole at twice the shape mode energy that corresponds to an unstable excitation whose width is expected to be determined by higher-order corrections.
This paper investigates holographic shear correlators in a strongly-coupled 3D theory at low temperatures, demonstrating that quantum-gravitational corrections from nearly-gapless Schwarzian modes increase shear viscosity and cause the ratio to dip below the semiclassical $1/4\pi$ bound at intermediate temperatures before diverging at very low temperatures.
This paper introduces the Open Polymers 2026 (OPoly26) dataset, a publicly released collection of over 6.57 million density functional theory calculations on polymeric systems designed to overcome previous computational limitations and enhance machine learning models for predicting polymer properties.
This paper constructs the unique primary energy-momentum tensor for conformal free scalars by solving off-shell conservation and tracelessness conditions in momentum space, expressing the result as a Gegenbauer polynomial sum that truncates for integer scaling dimensions to match known results and GJMS operator computations, while extending to nonlocal cases with a two-parameter family reflecting non-unique geometric couplings.
Using sign-problem-free quantum Monte Carlo simulations, this study maps the global phase diagram of a mobile impurity in a two-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model to reveal two distinct self-trapping mechanisms: an interaction-driven crossover in the superfluid phase characterized by impurity winding number collapse, and a compressibility-controlled localization in the Mott insulator phase driven by bath stiffness loss and defect quantization.
