In this paper, a well-motivated parametrization of the Hubble parameter ($H$% ) is revisited that renders two models of dark energy showing some intriguing features of the late-time accelerating Universe. A general quintessence field is…
We report the quantitative experimental observation of the weak inertial-wave turbulence regime of rotating turbulence. We produce a statistically steady homogeneous turbulent flow that consists of nonlinearly interacting inertial waves,…
The one-dimensional harmonic vibronic model, which is a generalization of the so-called linear Landau-Zener model and appears in the form of coupled Schr\"{o}dinger equations, is revisited. After decoupling the components, the resulting…
The recent GW170817 measurement favors the simplest dark energy models, such as a single scalar field. Quintessence models can be classified in two classes, freezing and thawing, depending on whether the equation of state decreases towards…
We uncover an aspect of the Kibble--Zurek phenomenology, according to which the spectrum of critical exponents of a classical or quantum phase transition is revealed, by driving the system slowly in directions parallel to the phase…
We identify a sharp geometric threshold governing the infrared spectral behavior of the spatial Lichnerowicz operator on asymptotically flat three-dimensional manifolds. Let $(M,g)$ be asymptotically flat and let $L=\Delta_L$ denote the…
We prove that the geometric Weyl bulk-density exponent $(d-2)/2$ rigidifies spectral encodings $C=\pi-\phi(\lambda)$ in the O-regularly varying class: the bulk power law forces $\phi\in\mathrm{RV}_1$ (asymptotic linearity). For…
Early dark energy, as a proposed solution to the Hubble tension, faces an additional "why now" problem. Why should dark energy emerge just prior to recombination, billions of years before the onset of cosmic acceleration? Assisted…
Collinear factorization and the leading-twist operator product expansion (OPE) in perturbative QCD express suitably inclusive observables in scale-separated kinematics as composites of perturbative short-distance coefficients with universal…
We consider the cosmological application of Lee-Wick theory where a field has a higher derivative kinetic operators. The higher derivative term can be eliminated by introducing a set of auxiliary fields. We investigate the cosmological…
Under sufficiently slow driving, thermodynamics predicts reversible evolution through a sequence of equilibrium states. We show that this expectation fails near spectral degeneracy in driven quadratic Hamiltonian systems. As the soft-mode…
We show that the assumption of a flat universe induces critically large errors in reconstructing the dark energy equation of state at z>~0.9 even if the true cosmic curvature is very small, O(1%) or less. The spuriously reconstructed w(z)…
We study electron transport properties of a monoatomic graphite layer (graphene) with different types of disorder at half filling. We show that the transport properties of the system depend strongly on the symmetry of disorder. We find that…
This paper investigates the linear destabilization of three-dimensional steady wakes developing behind flate plates placed normal to the incoming flow. Plates characterized by low length-to-width ratio $L$ are considered here. By varying…
We extend the recently developed discrete geometric singular perturbation theory to the non-normally hyperbolic regime. Our primary tool is the Takens embedding theorem, which provides a means of approximating the dynamics of particular…
Quantized conductance from topologically protected edge states is a hallmark of two-dimensional topological phases. In contrast, edge states in one-dimensional (1D) topological systems cannot transmit current across the insulating bulk,…
In axion quintessence, the cosmological era with an energy contrast in dark energy 0.1 < Omega_DE < 0.9 may represent a significant fraction of the universe's lifetime if the minimum of the axion potential is negative (unstable axion…
We present a detailed analysis (including redshift tomography) of the cosmic dipoles in the Keck+VLT quasar absorber and in the Union2 SnIa samples. We show that the fine structure constant cosmic dipole obtained through the Keck+VLT quasar…
In this work we consider the extension of the standard model by dark fields with an Abelian $U(1)_{d}$ spontaneously broken gauge symmetry in a hidden dark matter scenario. Considering all the dimension four gauge invariant terms we show…
Projection operators arise naturally as one-particle density operators associated to Slater determinants in fields such as quantum mechanics and the study of determinantal processes. In the context of the semiclassical approximation of…
