Modular Hamiltonians for deformed half-spaces and the averaged null energy condition [PDF]
A bstractWe study modular Hamiltonians corresponding to the vacuum state for deformed half-spaces in relativistic quantum field theories on ℝ1,d−1$$ {\mathrm{\mathbb{R}}}^{1,d-1} $$.

AbstractWe consider multiple-integral variational problems where the Lagrangian function, defined on a frame bundle, is homogeneous. We construct, on the corresponding sphere bundle, a canonical Lagrangian form with the property that it is closed exactly when the Lagrangian is null. We also provide a straightforward characterization of null Lagrangians

Uncovering null effects in null fields: the case of homeopathy
Sigurdson, Sainani, and Ioannidis (Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 2023) discussed homeopathy as a prototypical example of a “null field” where true effects are nonexistent and positive effect sizes reflect bias only. Based on a sample of published randomized placebo-controlled trials, they observed a remarkable effect in favor of homeopathy (Hedges’

A review of international oil and gas pipeline agreements and its implication in the Iranian legal system [PDF]
Pipelines are one of the most commonly used means for onshore transportation of oil and gas. In general, there are two different approaches which can be used to form the legal framework for the construction and operation of international pipelines: the ...

Causal structure and degenerate phase boundaries [PDF]
Timelike and null hypersurfaces in the degenerate space-times in the Ashtekar theory are defined in the light of the degenerate causal structure proposed by Matschull. Using the new definition of null hypersufaces, the conjecture that the "phase boundary"

Null model analysis of species co-occurrence patterns
The analysis of presence-absence matrices with ''null model'' randomization tests has been a major source of controversy in community ecology for over two decades.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...
