The Hubbard Model on the Honeycomb Lattice with Hybrid Monte Carlo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We take advantage of recent improvements in the grand canonical Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm, to perform a precision study of the single-particle gap in the hexagonal Hubbard model, with on-site electron-electron interactions.

Octonion Internal Space Algebra for the Standard Model

open access: yes, 2022
Our search for an appropriate notion of internal space for the fundamental particles starts with the Clifford algebra $C\ell_{10}$ with gamma matrices expressed as left multiplication by octonion units times a pair of Pauli matrices.

Underdetermination in Classic and Modern Tests of General Relativity [PDF]

open access: yes
Canonically, `classic' tests of general relativity (GR) include perihelion precession, the bending of light around stars, and gravitational redshift; `modern' tests have to do with, inter alia, relativistic time delay, equivalence principle tests ...

Non-trivial solution to a simple problem

open access: yes
The problem of finding the frequencies of small longitudinal oscillations of a spring having a finite mass and stiffness, attached at one end to a wall and at the other end to a body of finite mass, is discussed.

Quantum Error Correction for Kids

open access: yes
No one should wait until college to get acquainted with core concepts of quantum information. Given the human bias of favouring the familiar over the unknown, early exposure to concepts of quantum information helps learners build stronger appetence for ...
