Asymptotic dynamics of three dimensional supergravity and higher spin gravity revisited
We reconsider the Hamiltonian reduction of the action for three dimensional AdS supergravity and W 3 higher spin AdS gravity in the Chern-Simons formulation under asymptotically anti-de Sitter boundary conditions.

Zero modes of velocity field and topological invariant in quantum torus
We propose a velocity field approach to characterize topological invariants of quantum states. We introduce the indexes of the velocity field flow based on the zero modes of the velocity field and find that these zero modes play the role of the effective

Definition of Chern-Simons Terms in Thermal QED_3 Revisited [PDF]
We present two compact derivations of the correct definition of the Chern-Simons term in the topologically non trivial context of thermal $QED_3$. One is based on a transgression descent from a D=4 background connection, the other on embedding the ...

Locality of topological dynamics in Chern insulators
A system having macroscopic patches in different topological phases has no well-defined global topological invariant. To treat such a case, the quantities labeling different areas of the sample according to their topological state are used, dubbed local ...

On exotic consistent anomalies in (1+1)$d$: A ghost story
We revisit 't Hooft anomalies in (1+1)$d$ non-spin quantum field theory, starting from the consistency and locality conditions, and find that consistent U(1) and gravitational anomalies cannot always be canceled by properly quantized (2+1)$d$ classical ...

From a database of 170 pentagonal 2D materials, 4 candidates exhibiting altermagnetic ordering are screened. Furthermore, the spin‐splitting and unconventional boundary states in the pentagonal 2D altermagnetic monolayer MnS2 are investigated. A MnS2‐based altermagnetic tunneling junction is designed and, through ab initio quantum transport simulations,

On Weil homomorphism in locally free sheaves over structured spaces
Inspired by the work of Heller and Sasin [1], we construct in this paper Weil homomorphism in a locally free sheaf W of ϕ-fields [2] over a structured space.

Cosmological time and the constants of nature
We propose that cosmological time is effectively the conjugate of the constants of nature. Different definitions of time arise, with the most relevant related to the constant controlling the dynamics in each epoch. The Hamiltonian constraint then becomes

Electrically Tunable On‐Chip Topological Photonics with Integrated Carbon Nanotubes
This work demonstrates electrically tunable on‐chip topological THz devices by integrating 2D carbon nanotube (CNT) sheets with valley‐Hall photonic crystals, enabling broadband transmission modulation (71% modulation depth) and tunable narrowband filtering (0.54 GHz shift) through electrically induced thermal tuning. This advancement paves the way for

Symmetric space λ-model exchange algebra from 4d holomorphic Chern-Simons theory
We derive, within the Hamiltonian formalism, the classical exchange algebra of a lambda deformed string sigma model in a symmetric space directly from a 4d holomorphic Chern-Simons theory.
