Accurate inclusion of both spin precession and orbital eccentricity effects in gravitational waveform models represents a key hurdle in our ability to fully characterize the properties of compact binaries. Virtually all efforts to model…

We show that the EPRL/FK spin foam model of quantum gravity has an absolutely convergent partition function if the vertex amplitude is divided by an appropriate power $p$ of the product of dimensions of the vertex spins. This power is…

The simplicial framework of Engle-Pereira-Rovelli-Livine spin-foam models is generalized to match the diffeomorphism invariant framework of loop quantum gravity. The simplicial spin-foams are generalized to arbitrary linear 2-cell…

The emergence of Lorentzian geometries in spin-foams and group field theories is investigated. The spectral dimension of periodic Euclidean spin-foam frusta is studied. At large scales, the spectral dimension is generically four. At lower…

We introduce pyEFPEHM, a post-Newtonian (PN) inspiral waveform model for eccentric and spin-precessing compact binaries that includes higher-order modes and matter effects. Accurate and efficient waveform models capturing these effects are…

We propose and study a model for the equilibrium statistical mechanics of a pressurised semiflexible polymer ring. The Hamiltonian has a term which couples to the algebraic area of the ring and a term which accounts for bending…

We describe a technique to study the asymptotics of SL(2,C) invariant tensors associated to graphs, with unitary irreps and lowest SU(2) spins, and apply it to the Lorentzian EPRL-KKL (Engle, Pereira, Rovelli, Livine; Kaminski, Kieselowski,…

The relativistic spinning particle model, proposed in [3,4], is analyzed in a Hamiltonian framework. The spin is simulated by extending the configuration space by introducing a light-like four vector degree of freedom. The model is heavily…

In this paper a recently developed projector-based renormalization method (PRM) for many-particle Hamiltonians is applied to the periodic Anderson model (PAM) with the aim to describe heavy Fermion behavior. In this method high-energetic…

The intricated combinatorial structure and the non-compactness of the Lorentz group have always made the computation of $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ EPRL spin foam transition amplitudes a very hard and resource demanding task. With \texttt{sl2cfoam}…

In this article we study the Conrady-Hnybida extension of the Lorentzian Engle-Pereira-Rovelli-Livine spin-foam model, which admits time-like cells rather than just space-like ones. Our focus is on the asymptotic analysis of the model's…

We study a holomorphic representation for spinfoams. The representation is obtained via the Ashtekar-Lewandowski-Marolf-Mour\~ao-Thiemann coherent state transform. We derive the expression of the 4d spinfoam vertex for Euclidean and for…

The conformational states of a semiflexible polymer enclosed in a compact domain of typical size $a$ are studied as stochastic realizations of paths defined by the Frenet equations under the assumption that stochastic "curvature" satisfies…

In the present work, we start from a minimal Hamiltonian for Fermi systems where the s-wave scattering is the only low energy constant at play. Many-Body Perturbative approach that is usually valid at rather low density is first discussed.…
