The (chordal) Loewner differential equation encodes certain curves in the half-plane (aka traces) by continuous real-valued driving functions. Not all curves are traces; the latter can be defined via a geometric condition called the local…
The transfer matrix of the 6-vertex model of two-dimensional statistical physics commutes with many (more complicated) transfer matrices, but these latter, generally, do not commute between each other. The studying of their action in the…

The anomaly detection method presented by this paper has a special feature: it does not only indicate whether an observation is anomalous or not but also tells what exactly makes an anomalous observation unusual. Hence, it provides support…
The multiplet of superconformal anomalous currents in the case $(1,0)$, $d=6$ is derived. The supersymmetric multiplet of anomalies contains the trace of the energy momentum tensor, the gamma trace of the supercurrent and some topological…
In the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence, we perform a direct computation in AdS_5 supergravity of the trace anomaly of a d=4, N=2 SCFT. We find agreement with the field theory result up to next to leading order in the 1/N expansion. In…

We consider the problem of finding anomalies in high-dimensional data using popular PCA based anomaly scores. The naive algorithms for computing these scores explicitly compute the PCA of the covariance matrix which uses space quadratic in…
We consider quantum p-form fields interacting with a background dilaton. We calculate the variation with respect to the dilaton of a difference of the effective actions in the models related by a duality transformation. We show that this…
Motivated by traces of matrices and Euler characteristics of topological spaces, we expect abstract traces in a symmetric monoidal category to be "additive". When the category is "stable" in some sense, additivity along cofiber sequences is…
