(2+1) gravity for higher genus in the polygon model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We construct explicitly a (12g − 12)-dimensional space P of unconstrained and independent initial data for ’t Hooft’s polygon model of (2+1) gravity for vacuum spacetimes with compact genus-g spacelike slices, for any g ≥ 2.

SPACETIME OR QUANTUM PARTICLES: THE ONTOLOGY OF QUANTUM GRAVITY? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The domains of quantum theory and general relativity overlap in situations where quantum mechanical effects cannot be ignored. In order to deal with this overlap of theoretical domains, there has been a tendency to apply the rules of quantum field theory

A locally finite model for gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Matter interacting classically with gravity in 3+1 dimensions usually gives rise to a continuum of degrees of freedom, so that, in any attempt to quantize the theory, ultraviolet divergences are nearly inevitable.

Investigating Long-Term Behaviour of X-ray Binaries Using Archival Data

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015
Long term modulations have been detected in a wide variety of both low and high-mass X-ray binaries. The All Sky Monitor on board the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer provides the most extensive (~15 years) and sensitive X-ray archive for studying such ...

The Evolution Characteristics and Driving Mechanism of Urban Construction Land in Hong Kong since 1972

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
As an important spatial carrier of Hong Kong’s economic development, construction land provides a critical site for Hong Kong’s economic and social activities. The development of construction land directly affects the sustainable development of the city.

Relationship between gait kinematics and walking energy expenditure during pregnancy in South African women

open access: yesBMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2018
Background Various musculoskeletal changes occurring during pregnancy may lead to the change in gait and contribute to the increase in walking energy expenditure.

International trade without CES : estimating translog gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper derives a micro-founded gravity equation based on a translog demand system that allows for flexible substitution patterns across goods. In contrast to the standard CES-based gravity equation, translog gravity generates an endogenous trade cost

Affrication as the cause of /s/-retraction: Evidence from Manchester English

open access: yesGlossa, 2022
Retraction of /s/ to a more [ʃ]-like sound is a well-known sound change attested across many varieties of English for /stɹ/ words, e.g. street and strong.

Krylov complexity, confinement and universality

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We perform a systematic holographic study of Krylov complexity for a wide class of confining quantum field theories. Using the geometric prescription that identifies the time derivative of the complexity with the proper momentum of a massive probe, we ...

A new class of group field theories for 1st order discrete quantum gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Group Field Theories, a generalization of matrix models for 2d gravity, represent a 2nd quantization of both loop quantum gravity and simplicial quantum gravity.
