Generic absence of strong singularities and geodesic completeness in modified loop quantum cosmologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Different regularizations of the Hamiltonian constraint in loop quantum cosmology yield modified loop quantum cosmologies, namely mLQC-I and mLQC-II, which lead to qualitatively different Planck scale physics.

Transport properties in the Horndeski holographic two-currents model

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
The transport features of the holographic two-currents model are investigated in the Horndeski gravity framework. This system displays metallic or insulating characteristics depending on whether the Horndeski coupling parameter $$\gamma $$ γ is negative ...

The DNA of Calabi–Yau Hypersurfaces

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic Algorithms are implemented for triangulations of four‐dimensional reflexive polytopes, which induce Calabi–Yau threefold hypersurfaces via Batyrev's construction. These algorithms are shown to efficiently optimize physical observables such as axion decay constants or axion–photon couplings in string theory compactifications.

Higher-derivative Quantum Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesGeneral Relativity and Gravitation, 2000
The quantum cosmology of a higher-derivative derivative gravity theory arising from the heterotic string effective action is reviewed. A new type of Wheeler-DeWitt equation is obtained when the dilaton is coupled to the quadratic curvature terms. Techniques for solving the Wheeler-DeWitt equation with appropriate boundary conditions shall be described,

On the Physical Hilbert Space of Loop Quantum Cosmology

open access: yes, 2004
In this paper we present a model of Riemannian loop quantum cosmology with a self-adjoint quantum scalar constraint. The physical Hilbert space is constructed using refined algebraic quantization.

Quantum Iterative Methods for Solving Differential Equations with Application to Computational Fluid Dynamics

open access: yesAdvanced Quantum Technologies, EarlyView.
Quantum algorithms for differential equations are developed with applications in computational fluid dynamics. The methods follow an iterative simulation framework, implementing Jacobi and Gauss–Seidel schemes on quantum registers through linear combinations of unitaries.

Topological‐defect‐featured order evolution of liquid crystals

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive introduction to the recent advances in the topological‐defect‐featured order evolution of liquid crystal (LCs), including the stimulus‐driven dynamics of defects in nematic LCs, topological defect morphological transformation during phase transitions, advanced strategies for regulating and applications of ...

Quantum BPS cosmology

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity
Abstract There has been much discussion about the initial conditions of the early Universe in the context of quantum theory. In this paper, we construct the wave function and probability distribution by adopting the quantum version of the BPS equation instead of the usual Wheeler–DeWitt equation in a minisuperspace quantum cosmology with
