Higher spin de Sitter quantum gravity [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015
We consider Einstein gravity with positive cosmological constant coupled with higher spin interactions and calculate Euclidean path integral perturbatively. We confine ourselves to the static patch of the 3 dimensional de Sitter space. This geometry, when Euclideanlized is equivalent to 3-sphere.

Stretching the Printability Metric in Direct‐Ink Writing with Highly Extensible Yield‐Stress Fluids

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces “drawability” as a new metric for assessing printability in direct‐ink writing, focusing on gap‐spanning performance and speed robustness. By designing yield‐stress fluids with high extensibility, we demonstrate that extensional strain‐to‐break significantly enhances printability.

Swelling‐Programmed Topographical Guidance for Dynamic Spheroid Self‐Assembly via a Mechanochemical Hydrogel Niche

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A swelling‐programmed micropatterned hydrogel guides adherent cells through a controlled transition from cell–matrix anchoring to cadherin‐mediated cell–cell compaction, enabling rapid assembly of high‐viability spheroids with defined size and morphology.

String model for AdS gravity and higher spins [PDF]

Physical Review D, 2011
We construct a string sigma-model which low energy limit describes the anti de Sitter gravity and spin 3 massless fields in Vasiliev's frame-like formalism. The model is based on vertex operators generating vielbein and connection fields in the Mac Dowell - Mansoury - Stelle - West (MMSW) formulation of gravity. The structure of the vertex operators is

Chern-Simons matter theories and higher spin gravity [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We compute the parity violating three point amplitudes with one scalar leg in higher spin gravity and compare results with those of Chern-Simons matter theories. The three-point correlators of the free boson, free fermion, critical vector model and Gross-Neveu model are reproduced including the dependence on the Chern-Simons coupling. We also perform a

Transfer Printing and Reconfiguration of Soft Electronics Using Digital Microfluidics and Laser Machining

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This paper presents a digital microfluidics‐based technique for transferring and reconfiguring soft nanomembranes. Laser‐machined nanothin membranes are picked up, transported, and aligned via tailored surface tension and the actuation of water droplets, enabling the development of flexible electronics, the integration of functional materials on 3D ...

Higgs mechanism for gravity. II. Higher spin connections [PDF]

Physical Review D, 2006
We continue the work of [Phys. Rev. D 72, 024001 (2005)] in which gravity is considered as the Goldstone realization of a spontaneously broken diffeomorphism group. We complete the discussion of the coset space $\mathrm{Diff}\text{ }(d,\mathbb{R})/SO(1,d\ensuremath{-}1)$ formed by the $d$-dimensional group of analytic diffeomorphisms and the Lorentz ...

3D Printing Innovations in Polymeric Porous and Patterned Architecture

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymeric foams occupy a unique structural space between dense solids and open networks, where engineered void fraction governs mechanical compliance, thermal resistance, and mass transport. Additive manufacturing now enables precise spatial control over cellular architecture, unlocking designer foam structures across applications spanning crash ...
