In this paper, we present HyperPrecision, a Mathematica package for high-precision numerical evaluation of general Horn-type multivariate hypergeometric functions and their Laurent expansions in a small parameter $\epsilon$. Such functions…
Chiroptical techniques for detecting and characterizing the chirality of matter and artificial nanostructures are traditionally based on their interaction with chiral light, typically circularly-polarized fields propagating in free space.…
We construct the causal fermion system for globally hyperbolic spacetimes starting in the framework of algebraic quantum field theory. The fermionic projector is identified with the one-particle density operator of a quasi-free Hadamard…
We study the Dirac equation in the Reissner-Nordstr\"om geometry in horizon-penetrating coordinates up to the Cauchy horizon. A mass decomposition theorem is proved, which gives a covariant representation of the spacetime inner product that…
We identify chiral inversion points in slow-light, glide-plane-symmetric, photonic-crystal waveguides, defined as fixed locations where the local optical chirality changes sign over a narrow wavelength range. We experimentally access this…
This note studies the quantized corner structure of four-dimensional $BF$ theory, classifies the associated free and physical corner algebras and constructs possible representations. In the abelian case, for arbitrary closed oriented…
The accelerating growth of global data generation demands data storage platforms that offer high capacity, long lifespan, and low energy consumption beyond the limits of electronic memory technologies. Optical storage provides an attractive…
Four-wave mixing (FWM) is an efficient source of light waves emitted at various frequencies, usually associated with third-order optical nonlinearities. Whereas attention has mostly been paid in the past to the generation of Stokes (e.g.,…
We investigate symmetry restoration and spatially localized dynamics in a non-Hermitian optical trimer composed of three lossy waveguides with complex-valued couplings. Extending our previous analysis of the system's global bifurcation…
We study the thermodynamics of the symmetry-improved Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis (SICJT) formalism and apply it to a low-energy effective theory of QCD. In the symmetry-improved formulation, Ward-Takahashi identities are restored by auxiliary…
We present a quantum-field-theoretic treatment of massive chiral fields in which particles possess well-defined chirality and helicity. This framework reproduces the chiral oscillation formula previously obtained in first-quantized…
Photon superbunching, which occurs when the second-order correlation satisfies $g^{(2)}> 2$, is typically associated with strong optical nonlinearities or collective multi-photon emission processes. We predict that extreme superbunching can…
We study a determinantal Coulomb gas in the complex plane associated with the external potential $$ Q(z)=\frac{1}{1-\tau^2}\big(|z|^2-\tau \text{Re } z^2\big)-2c\log|z-a|, $$ where $\tau\in[0,1)$, $c\ge0$, and $a\ge0$. In the regimes where…
High-speed imaging of cells in flow is essential for probing cellular heterogeneity in large populations. Existing imaging approaches based on single-pixel detection and spatio-temporal encoding provide exceptional speed, but typically rely…
High quality-factor (Q) resonant metasurfaces have attracted significant attention due to their potential applications in cutting-edge fields of optics. However, limited by intrinsic dissipation losses, achieving both an extremely high Q…
We study single-photon scattering by atoms in arrays of one-way waveguides. We investigate both chiral and antichiral arrays, where the one-way waveguides are aligned in the same and opposite directions, respectively. In the chiral array,…
We study the one-loop Polyakov-loop effective potential in pure gluonic matter under constant acceleration. We perform the computation in both the Euclidean Rindler spacetime and the optical spacetime, which are related via a conformal…
It is well known that band inversion across a straight interface in a periodic medium gives rise to interface modes that are localized near the interface and propagate along it inside the bulk spectral gap. This phenomenon constitutes the…
In this study we apply the Remler formalism to charmonium production at SPS and GSI/FAIR energies in order to investigate the effects of baryon-rich matter on charmonium production and dissociation in heavy-ion collisions within the…
Photon-induced near-field electron microscopy (PINEM) has emerged as a powerful technique for imaging optical excitations with nanometer spatial and sub-picosecond temporal resolution. Recent years have extended the bandwidth of operation…
