We bootstrap the Veneziano superstring amplitude in 10 dimensions from the bottom-up. Starting with the most general maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills EFT, we input information about the lowest-lying massive states, which we assume…
We apply bootstrap techniques in order to constrain the CFT data of the $(A_1,A_2)$ Argyres-Douglas theory, which is arguably the simplest of the Argyres-Douglas models. We study the four-point function of its single Coulomb branch chiral…
Finding a method to combine the numerical bootstrap with the analytic lightcone bootstrap is an important goal to advance the conformal bootstrap program. We propose a hybrid bootstrap method to do just that. The numerical and analytic…
In previous works, ratios among four-point scattering amplitudes at the leading order in the high-energy limit were derived for the bosonic open string theory. The derivation was based on Ward identities derived from the decoupling of…

We construct a four-dimensional conformal amplitude whose four-point structure matches the Virasoro-Shapiro form familiar from string theory. The construction uses only general principles of conformal field theory - radial quantization,…

We revisit the null distribution of the high-dimensional spatial-sign test of Wang et al. (2015) under mild structural assumptions on the scatter matrix. We show that the standardized test statistic converges to a non-Gaussian limit,…
The low energy $S$-matrix which describes non-relativistic scattering arising from finite-range forces has UV/IR symmetries that are hidden in the corresponding effective field theory (EFT) action. It is shown that the $S$-matrix symmetries…

A method combining the Lagrange-mesh and the complex Kohn variational methods is developed for computing the $\mathcal{S}$ matrix of a 2$+$1 elastic scattering in the frame of three-body Coulomb systems. Resonance parameters can be obtained…

Autonomy and electrification in automotive control systems have made modern-day powertrains one of the most complex cyber-physical systems. This paper presents a benchmark algorithm to quantify the performance of complex automotive systems…
Motivated by recently developed techniques making it possible to compute Casimir energies for any object whose scattering S-matrix (or, equivalently, T-matrix) is available, we develop a variable phase method to compute the S-matrix for…
In this paper, we introduce a framework for contextual distributionally robust optimization (DRO) that considers the causal and continuous structure of the underlying distribution by developing interpretable and tractable decision rules…

We propose a distributed bootstrap method for simultaneous inference on high-dimensional massive data that are stored and processed with many machines. The method produces an $\ell_\infty$-norm confidence region based on a…
As its name suggests, sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) targets to estimate a subspace from data that contains all information sufficient to explain a dependent variable. Ample approaches exist to SDR, some of the most recent of which…
