Twistor Cosmology and Quantum Space-Time [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2005 The purpose of this paper is to present a model of a quantum space-time in which the global symmetries of space-time are unified in a coherent manner with the internal symmetries associated with the state space of quantum-mechanics. If we take into account the fact that these distinct families of symmetries should in some sense merge and become ...

Structure‐Guided Dynamical Mechanics in Bioinspired Double Twisted Laminated Thin Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work explores a dynamic mechanistic study of crack propagation and puncture testing via real‐time monitoring of crack initiation, propagation, and termination through nature‐inspired single and double twisted architectures fabricated from cellulose nanocrystals.

A hidden 2d CFT for self-dual Yang-Mills on the celestial sphere
Journal of High Energy PhysicsSelf-dual Yang-Mills theory admits an underlying infinite dimensional symmetry algebra, which has been obtained from mode expansion of Mellin transformed 4d scattering amplitudes and separately, Koszul duality on twistor space.

Transversal Twistor Spaces of Foliations
Annals of Global Analysis and Geometry, 2001 The transversal twistor space of a foliation F of an even codimension is the bundle ZF of the complex structures of the fibers of the transversal bundle of F. On ZF, there exists a foliation F' by covering spaces of the leaves of F, and any Bott connection of F produces an ordered pair (I,J) of transversal almost complex structures of F'. The existence

Optical Signature of Moiré Superlattices Formed by Twisted SrTiO3 Membranes
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We discover optical signatures from bonded interfaces in twisted SrTiO3 moiré superlattices, including low‐frequency Raman vibrational modes and strong second‐harmonic generation, consistent with strong interlayer coupling inferred from cross‐sectional electron microscopy and ab initio calculations. ABSTRACT Moiré superlattices formed at the interfaces

The holographic dual of the Penrose transform
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We consider the holographic duality between type-A higher-spin gravity in AdS4 and the free U(N) vector model. In the bulk, linearized solutions can be translated into twistor functions via the Penrose transform.

MHV diagrams in twistor space and the twistor action
, 2011 MHV diagrams give an efficient Feynman diagram-like formalism for calculating gauge theory scattering amplitudes on momentum space. Although they arise as the Feynman diagrams from an action on twistor space in an axial gauge, the main ingredients were previously expressed only in momentum space and momentum twistor space.
