Developing an Action Concept Inventory [PDF]
Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2016 We report on progress towards the development of an Action Concept Inventory (ACI), a test that measures student understanding of action principles in introductory mechanics and optics.

Effective average action in statistical physics and quantum field theory [PDF]
, 2001 An exact renormalization group equation describes the dependence of the free energy on an infrared cutoff for the quantum or thermal fluctuations. It interpolates between the microphysical laws and the complex macroscopic phenomena.

A variant approach to the overlap action [PDF]
Phys.Rev.D63:034503,2000, 2000 I describe an implementation of the overlap action, which is built from an action which is itself an approximate overlap action. It appears to be about a factor of 15-20 less expensive to use, than the usual overlap action with the Wilson fermion action ...

A tmQCD mixed-action approach to flavour physics
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 We discuss a mixed-action approach in which sea quarks are regularised using non-perturbatively ${\rm O}(a)$ improved Wilson fermions, while a fully-twisted tmQCD action is used for valence quarks.

Tensorial origin of the action function, nexus between Quantum physics and General Relativity [PDF]
arXiv, 2002 The analytic physics, when it is development from aprioristic form, constructs all the laws from the Hamilton principle, also called action principle. According to this principle all systems are characterized by a magnitude called action which variation is equal to zero for the real evolution of the systems.

Gender gaps and gendered action in a first-year physics laboratory [PDF]
Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2016 [This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Gender in Physics.] It is established that male students outperform female students on almost all commonly used physics concept inventories.

Equivariance, Variational Principles, and the Feynman Integral [PDF]
Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2008 We argue that the variational calculus leading to Euler's equations and Noether's theorem can be replaced by equivariance and invariance conditions avoiding the action integral.

Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022 In dynamic (social) environments, an affective state of “stress” can be adaptive and promote agent wellbeing, but maladaptive if not appropriately regulated.

Causality in Discrete Time Physics Derived from Maupertuis Reduced Action Principle
Entropy, 2021 Causality describes the process and consequences from an action: a cause has an effect. Causality is preserved in classical physics as well as in special and general theories of relativity.
