Energy density functional (EDF) theory provides a unified framework for the description of nuclei and of infinite nuclear matter. In principle, it facilitates direct connections between nuclear data and the nuclear equation of state (EoS).…
At least three length scales are important in gaining a complete understanding of the physics of nuclei. These are the radius of the nucleus, the average inter-nucleon separation distance, and the size of the nucleon. The connections…
The systematic study of the correlation between the experimental giant dipole resonance (GDR) width and the average deformation <\beta> of the nucleus at finite excitation is presented for the mass region A ~ 59 to 208. We show that the…
The information on the symmetry energy and its density dependence is deduced by comparing the available data on the electric dipole polarizability $\alpha_D$ of ${}^{68}$Ni, ${}^{120}$Sn, and ${}^{208}$Pb with the predictions of the Random…
Using the relativistic mean-field model with nonlinear couplings between the isoscalar and isovector mesons, we study the properties of isospin-asymmetric nuclear matter. Not only the vector mixing,…
[Abridged] By combining swampland conjectures with observational data, it was recently noted that our universe could stretch off in an asymptotic region of the string landscape of vacua. In this framework, the cosmological hierarchy problem…
The size distribution of dust particles in nuclear fusion devices is close to the power function. A function of this kind can be the result of brittle destruction. From the similarity assumption it follows that the size distribution obeys…
A permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of a physical system requires time-reversal (T) and parity (P) violation. Experimental programs are currently pushing the limits on EDMs in atoms, nuclei, and the neutron to regimes of fundamental…
Considering a very large number of extra dimensions, $N\rightarrow \infty$, we show that in the effective four dimensional picture, to leading order in $N$, both the cosmological constant in $N+4$ dimensions and the curvature of the extra…
Motivated by principles from the Swampland program, which characterize requirements for a consistent UV completion of quantum gravity, combined with observational data, we are led to a unique corner of the quantum gravity landscape. In…

Let $\mathcal K=\langle\mathcal R, \delta\rangle$ be a closed ordered differential field, in the sense of M. Singer, and $C$ its field of constants. In this note, we prove that, for sets definable in the pair $\mathcal M=\langle \mathcal R,…
We prove that the fractal dimension of a metric space equipped with an Ahlfors regular measure can be recovered from the persistent homology of random samples. Our main result is that if $x_1,\ldots, x_n$ are i.i.d. samples from a…
One-dimensional quantum optical models usually rest on the intuition of large scale separation or frozen dynamics associated with the different spatial dimensions, for example when studying quasi one-dimensional atomic dynamics, potentially…
The determination of nuclear symmetry energy, and in particular, its density dependence, is a long-standing problem for nuclear physics community. Previous studies have found that the product of electric dipole polarizability $\alpha_D$ and…
Several perspectives that can be opened by studying the electroexcitation of the delta via parity-violating electron scattering from nuclei are examined, working within the context of the relativistic Fermi gas model. A strong enhancement…
We introduce a fractal dimension for a metric space defined in terms of the persistent homology of extremal subsets of that space. We exhibit hypotheses under which this dimension is comparable to the upper box dimension; in particular, the…
Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be a prime field, and ${\mathcal E}$ a set in $\mathbb{F}_p^2$. Let $\Delta({\mathcal E})=\{||x-y||: x,y \in {\mathcal E} \}$, the distance set of ${\mathcal E}$. In this paper, we provide a quantitative connection…

Observations in the cosmological domain are heavily dependent on the validity of the cosmic distance-duality (DD) relation, D_L(z) (1 + z)^{2}/D_{A}(z) = 1, an exact result required by the Etherington reciprocity theorem where D_L(z) and…
