Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

Loop quantum cosmology and singularities
Scientific Reports, 2017 Loop quantum gravity is believed to eliminate singularities such as the big bang and big crunch singularity. This belief is based on studies of so-called loop quantum cosmology which concerns symmetry-reduced models of quantum gravity. In this paper, the

Polytopes in all dimensional loop quantum gravity
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022 The Lasserre’s reconstruction algorithm is extended to the D-polytopes with the construction of their shape space. Thus, the areas of d-skeletons $$(1\le d\le D)$$ ( 1 ≤ d ≤ D ) can be expressed as functions of the areas and normal bi-vectors of the (D-1)

Perturbative Noncommutative Quantum Gravity [PDF]
, 2000 We study perturbative noncommutative quantum gravity by expanding the gravitational field about a fixed classical background. A calculation of the one loop gravitational self-energy graph reveals that only the non-planar graviton loops are damped by ...

Study of Free‐Space Optical Quantum Network: Review and Prospectives
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Free from the constraints of fiber connections, free‐space quantum network enables longer and more flexible quantum network connections. This review summarizes and comparatively analyzes free‐space quantum network experiments based on ground stations, satellites, and mobile platforms.

HOLOGRAPHY FROM LOOP QUANTUM GRAVITY [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2008 We show that holography follows directly from the basic structure of spherically symmetric loop quantum gravity. The result is not dependent on detailed assumptions about the dynamics of the theory being considered. It ties strongly the amount of information contained in a region of space to the tight mathematical underpinnings of loop quantum ...

No fermion doubling in quantum geometry
Physics Letters B, 2015 In loop quantum gravity the discrete nature of quantum geometry acts as a natural regulator for matter theories. Studies of quantum field theory in quantum space–times in spherical symmetry in the canonical approach have shown that the main effect of the

Does a Theory of Everything Exist?
Философия и космология, 2021 Since Einstein’s failure to define a Grand Unified Theory, physicists have pursued a comprehensive theory explaining nature, a Theory of Everything. But because General Relativity, Quantum Field Theory, and Cosmology have little in common, defining one ...
