Hausdorff dimension of fermions on a random lattice

Geometric properties of lattice quantum gravity in two dimensions are studied numerically via Monte Carlo on Euclidean Dynamical Triangulations. A new computational method is proposed to simulate gravity coupled with fermions, which allows the study of int ...

Coupling metric-affine gravity to a Higgs-like scalar field

Sebastian Zell

General relativity (GR) exists in different formulations. They are equivalent in pure gravity but generically lead to distinct predictions once matter is included. After a brief overview of various versions of GR, we focus on metric-affine gravity, which a ...

An experimental validation of the polynomial curvature model: identification and optimal control of a soft underwater tentacle

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Francesco Stella, Nana Obayashi

The control possibilities for soft robots have long been hindered by the lack of accurate yet computationally treatable dynamic models of soft structures. Polynomial curvature models propose a solution to this quest for continuum slender structures. Nevert ...

Higgs inflation in Einstein-Cartan gravity

Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov, Sebastian Zell

We study inflation driven by the Higgs field in the Einstein-Cartan formulation of gravity. In this theory, the presence of the Holst and Nieh-Yan terms with the Higgs field non-minimally coupled to them leads to three additional coupling constants. For a ...

Deciphering the interactions between single arm dislocation sources and coherent twin boundary in nickel bi-crystal

Helena Van Swygenhoven

The introduction of a well-controlled population of coherent twin boundaries (CTBs) is an attractive route to improve the strength ductility product in face centered cubic (FCC) metals. However, the elementary mechanisms controlling the interaction between ...

Einstein-Cartan gravity, matter, and scale-invariant generalization

Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov, Sebastian Zell

We study gravity coupled to scalar and fermion fields in the Einstein-Cartan framework. We discuss the most general form of the action that contains terms of mass dimension not bigger than four, leaving out only contributions quadratic in curvature. By res ...

Maximizing Fiber Cable Capacity Under A Supply Power Constraint Using Deep Neural Networks

Erixhen Sula

We experimentally achieve a 19% capacity gain per Watt of electrical supply power in a 12-span link by eliminating gain flattening filters and optimizing launch powers using deep neural networks in a parallel fiber context. (C) 2020 The Authors ...

A crystallographic extension to the Olson-Cohen model for predicting strain path dependence of martensitic transformation

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis

A modification to the empirical Olson-Cohen strain-induced austenite to martensite transformation kinetic model is proposed. The proposed kinetic model accounts for the stress state at the grain level and the crystallography of the transformation mechanism ...

R-current three-point functions in 4d N=1 superconformal theories

Andrea Manenti, Alessandro Vichi

In 4d N = 1 superconformal field theories (SCFTs) the R-symmetry current, the stress-energy tensor, and the supersymmetry currents are grouped into a single object, the Ferrara-Zumino multiplet. In this work we study the most general form of three-point fu ...

Weyl and Ricci gauging from the coset construction

Alexander Monin, Georgios Karananas

In this paper we demonstrate how, using the coset construction, a theory can be systematically made Weyl invariant by gauging the scale symmetry. We show that an analog of the inverse Higgs constraint allows the elimination of the Weyl vector (gauge) field ...
