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…
Weakly ionized plasmas can be found in the lower layers of the solar and stellar atmospheres and in structures such as prominences and spicules. A variety of density perturbations and bulk flows detected in these environments have been…
Externally seeded free-electron lasers (FELs) are promising approaches for generating fully coherent soft-X-ray radiation. Their extension to shorter wavelengths and MHz-level repetition rates is, however, constrained by the limited…
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…
Following the Future Circular Collider (FCC) Feasibility Study completion, the impedance model for the FCC-ee High-Energy Booster (HEB) has been significantly expanded beyond the initial copper vacuum pipe resistive wall analysis. This…
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…
This document presents the energy-saving metric of the project Innovate for Sustainable Accelerating Systems (iSAS), funded by the EU under its program HORIZON-INFRA-2023-TECH-01 via grant agreement n{\deg}101131435 (milestone 9.5)
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…
We investigate constrained quantum motion on curves and surfaces using connection factorization methods. We show that Laplace operators admit an exact half-connection factorization generated by connection one-forms. The first-order part of…
Timelike Liouville field theory is a candidate model for positive curvature two-dimensional quantum gravity, but a mathematically controlled Lorentzian formulation has remained elusive. In this paper we construct the theory on the cylinder…
In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, the energy levels are a negative constant divided by the square of the level number. It is well known that special pairs of transitions exist that have the same energy difference, and a systematic…
We consider a certain first-order linear system of ordinary differential equations, and we analyze the direct and inverse scattering problems for that linear system. The linear system involves two potentials in the Schwartz class, and those…
Using direct methods of the calculus of variations we establish the existence of an infinite class of spherically-symmetric solutions to the multi-field Schr\"odinger-Poisson system. This is achieved by proving that the energy functional…
In this paper, we focus on the two-component (2+1)-dimensional Fokas-Lenells equation, which models the propagation of ultrashort optical pulses in nonlinear media with multi-mode interactions and multi-dimensional effects. Firstly, we…
High-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets and other advances have led to renewed interest in magnetic mirrors for fusion energy. The non-Maxwellian nature of mirror plasmas necessitates kinetic modeling to predict, optimize and design…
We present an explicit multiscale algorithm for solving differential equations for problems with high-frequency modes that can be averaged over by separating and scaling the fast and slow dynamics within a single equation. We introduce a…
Why do we use nano-antennas for fusion? In three sentences: The present laser induced fusion plans use extreme mechanical shock compression to get one hotspot and then ignition. Still fusion burning spreads slower than expansion, and…
The string hypothesis of Bethe roots is a cornerstone in the thermodynamic analysis of quantum integrable systems, since it connects root configurations with physical quantities such as the ground-state energy, surface energy and excitation…
We introduce classical and non-deterministic finite automata associated with representations of the braid group. After briefly reviewing basic definitions on finite automata, Coxeter's groups and the associated word problem, we turn to the…
