Ionic Control of Microstructure and Lubrication in Charged, Physically Cross‐Linked Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, charged, physically cross‐linked poly(methacrylamide‐co‐methacrylic acid) hydrogels stabilized by a short‐range attractive, long‐range repulsive potential is investigated. This work uncovers how salt addition alters not only swelling, but also the microstructure and dynamics, near‐surface stiffness and charge, and ultimately, its lubricity. Salts

Shift operators from the simplex representation in momentum-space CFT

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We derive parametric integral representations for the general n-point function of scalar operators in momentum-space conformal field theory. Recently, this was shown to be expressible as a generalised Feynman integral with the topology of an (n − 1 ...

c-Recursion for multi-point superconformal blocks. NS sector

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We develop a recursive approach to computing Neveu-Schwarz conformal blocks associated with n-punctured Riemann surfaces. This work generalizes the results of [1] obtained recently for the Virasoro algebra.

Self‐Assembled Membranes for High Ion Selectivity and Proton Blocking in Electrochemical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phase‐separated alkyl poly(vinylimidazolium) membranes exhibit exceptional ionic conductivity, counter‐ion selectivity, and proton‐blocking ability by forming stable micro/macrophase‐separated domains. This design overcomes the conductivity–selectivity trade‐off in conventional ion‐exchange membranes (IEMs), offering a new paradigm for high‐performance

Geometrically Templated, Ultra‐Lightweight and High Strength Soap Films from Lyotropic Liquid Crystalline Graphene Oxide/Polymer Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellular materials form spontaneously by dip coating the primitive triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) wireframe in an aqueous solution of lyotropic liquid crystalline graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets mixed with polymers. Regulated by surface tension, GO nanosheets align on the polymer soap film as the stress builds up during drying.

A spacetime derivation of the Lorentzian OPE inversion formula

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
Caron-Huot has recently given an interesting formula that determines OPE data in a conformal field theory in terms of a weighted integral of the four-point function over a Lorentzian region of cross-ratio space.

The N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 supersymmetric w 1+∞ symmetry in the two-dimensional SYK models

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We identify the rank (q syk + 1) of the interaction of the two-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (2, 2) SYK model with the deformation parameter λ in the Bergshoeff, de Wit and Vasiliev (in 1991)’s linear W ∞ [λ] algebra via λ = 1 2 q syk + 1 $$ \lambda =

Gaussian‐Sigmoid Reinforcement Transistors: Resolving Exploration‐Exploitation Trade‐Off Through Gate Voltage‐Controlled Activation Functions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The characteristics of a vertical n–p–i–p heterostructure transistor device, which exhibits a voltage‐tunable transition between Gaussian and sigmoid functions, are investigated. The mixed state of the transfer curve enables the utilization of both exploitation and exploration, improving computational performance in reinforcement learning tasks ...

On the positive geometry of conformal field theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
It has long been clear that the conformal bootstrap is associated with a rich geometry. In this paper we undertake a systematic exploration of this geometric structure as an object of study in its own right. We study conformal blocks for the minimal SL(2,
