Localization and Dualities in Three Dimensional Superconformal Field Theories [PDF]
, 2012 In this thesis we apply the technique of localization to three-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories. We consider both theories which are exactly superconformal, and those which are believed to flow to nontrivial superconformal fixed points, for

CFD modeling and sensitivity‐guided design of silicon filament CVD reactors
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Filament‐based chemical vapor deposition (CVD) for silicon (Si) coatings is often treated as an adaptation of planar deposition. But this overlooks fundamental shifts in transport phenomena and reaction kinetics. In filament CVD, the filament acts as a substrate, heat source, and flow disruptor simultaneously. In this work, we ask: What really

Ghost-free infinite derivative gravity
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We present the construction of a gravitational action including an infinite series of higher derivative terms. The outcome is a classically consistent completion of a well-studied quadratic curvature theory.

A new class of group field theories for 1st order discrete quantum gravity
, 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.

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Emulsion separation remains a persistent challenge in chemical and process industries due to the metastable nature of dispersed droplets. In gravity separators, the overall separation rate is governed by the formation of a densely packed zone (DPZ) of deforming and coalescing droplets that mediates between the dispersed and continuous phases ...

Scalarization of compact stars in the scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We study scalarization of horizonless neutral compact reflecting stars. In our model, the scalar hair can be induced by the coupling of static scalar fields to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant.

Sachs’ free data in real connection variables
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We discuss the Hamiltonian dynamics of general relativity with real connection variables on a null foliation, and use the Newman-Penrose formalism to shed light on the geometric meaning of the various constraints.

Regional integration and trade: controlling for varying degrees of heterogeneity in the gravity model [PDF]
, 2009 Using a panel dataset of bilateral export flows from 12 EU countries to 20 OECD trading partners over the 1992–2003 period, this paper examines whether the effect on trade of European regional integration, denoted by an EU dummy, holds across a ...

On the passage from the quantum theory to the semi-classical theory in 2D dilaton gravity [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 1993 Abstract An attempt is made to understand the passage from the exact quantum treatment of the CGHS theory to the semi-classical physics discussed by many authors. We find first that to the order of accuracy to which Hawking effects are calculated in the theory, it is inconsistent to ignore correlations in the dilaton gravity sector. Next the standard

Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.
