Topological correlation functions in Minkowski spacetime [PDF]
We consider a class of non-unitary Toda theories based on the Lie superalgebras $A^{(1)}(n,n)$ in two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, which can be twisted into a topological sector. In particular we study the simplest example with $n=1$ and real fields, and show how this theory can be treated as an integrable perturbation of the $A(1,0 ...

Gravitation in flat spacetime from entanglement
We explore holographic entanglement entropy for Minkowski spacetime in three and four dimensions. Under some general assumptions on the putative holographic dual, the entanglement entropy associated to a special class of subregions can be computed using ...

Inequivalent Goldstone hierarchies for spontaneously broken spacetime symmetries
The coset construction is a powerful tool for building theories that non-linearly realize symmetries. We show that when the symmetry group is not semisimple and includes spacetime symmetries, different parametrizations of the coset space can prefer ...

Embedding graphs in Lorentzian spacetime. [PDF]
Geometric approaches to network analysis combine simply defined models with great descriptive power. In this work we provide a method for embedding directed acyclic graphs (DAG) into Minkowski spacetime using Multidimensional scaling (MDS).

Entanglement dynamics for static two-level atoms in cosmic string spacetime
We study the entanglement dynamics of two static atoms coupled with a bath of fluctuating scalar fields in vacuum in the cosmic string spacetime. Three different alignments of atoms, i.e.

ABSTRACT How should we understand the duration of a pleasant or unpleasant sensation, insofar as its duration modulates how good or bad the experience is overall? Given that we seem able to distinguish between subjective and objective duration and that how well or badly someone's life goes is naturally thought of as something to be assessed from her ...

Work Versus Force: Simultaneous Processes for Describing Interactions
ABSTRACT Achieving a unified description of interactions remains an open challenge in theoretical physics, which currently describes four fundamental forces. This situation may be viewed differently when interactions are formulated in terms of processes (work as actio) rather than forces (force as actio), not only at the macroscopic level but also at ...

We derive the functional Schrödinger equation for quantum fields in curved spacetime in the semiclassical limit of quantum geometrodynamics with a Gaussian incoherent dust acting as a clock field.

Conformal wave expansions for flat space amplitudes
The extended BMS algebra contains a conformal subgroup that acts on the celestial sphere as SO(1, 3). It is of interest to perform mode expansions of free fields in Minkowski spacetime that realize this symmetry in a simple way.

ABSTRACT Consider wave equations with time derivative nonlinearity and time‐dependent propagation speed which are generalized versions of the wave equations in the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker (FLRW) spacetime, the de Sitter spacetime and the anti‐de Sitter space time.
