Meshing Unsigned Distance Fields with Regular Triangulations
Abstract Unsigned distance fields (UDF) are a versatile, implicit representation of geometry. They can represent surfaces that are not bounding a solid or contain points or curves that are not manifold, for example several sheets meeting along a common curve. Contouring the implicit representation, i.e. turning it into an explicit one, requires finding

We propose an extension of the scalaron-Higgs model by a non-minimal coupling of the Standard Model Higgs boson to the quadratic Ricci scalar resulting in a Higgs-dependent scalaron mass.

E-models of inflation and primordial black holes
We propose and study the new (generalized) E-type α-attractor models of inflation, in order to include formation of primordial black holes (PBHs). The inflaton potential has a near-inflection point where slow-roll conditions are violated, thus leading to

Geodesic Geometry of Black Holes [PDF]
The study of geodesics is of intrinsic significance in the study of the geometry of space-time. In this thesis null, space-like and time-like geodesics are studied in the case of the space-times of Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordstrouml;m and Kerr black ...

ABSTRACT In ‘Is Hope A Secular Virtue?’ (2024), Bob Stern and I argued that despairing involves being unable to stop desiring something we deem of great value while believing that this good can neither be obtained, nor return on its own. We characterised despair as one of the two vices hope sits between as a virtue (the opposite vice being unwarranted ...

Quantum Aspects of Black Holes [PDF]
In this thesis we study two quantum aspects of black holes, their entropy and the Hawking effect. First, we present a model for the statistical interpretation of black hole entropy and show that this entropy emerges as a result of missing information ...

ZnO Nanowires by Chemical Bath Deposition: A Review on Nucleation, Growth, and Green Chemistry
This review reports the most recent and well‐established state‐of‐the‐art and scientific challenges related to the nucleation and growth of ZnO nanowires by chemical bath deposition, involving seed layer and chemicals effects, elongation process modeling, selective area growth approach, and reactors.

The formation of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early Universe is a subject of significant debate. In this study, we examine whether non-evaporating primordial black holes (PBHs) can offer a solution.

This study systematically elucidates the complex tritrophic networks among the keystone shrub Lycium ruthenicum, three gall‐inducing pests, and 13 associated parasitoid species in the arid desert ecosystems of northern Xinjiang, China, reporting the globally novel stem gall‐inducing behavior of Scrobipalpa erichiodes.
