Improved values for the two- and three-loop mass-dependent QED contributions to the anomalous magnetic moments of the electron, muon, and tau lepton are presented. The Standard Model prediction for the electron (g-2) is compared with its…
Various experiments and observations have led researchers to suggest different bounds on fundamental constants like the fine-structure constant and the proton-to-electron mass ratio. These bounds differ mostly due to the energy scale of the…

We study Hamiltonian truncation in boosted frames. We consider the thermal and magnetic field deformations of the 2d Ising model using TCSA at finite momentum. We find that even with moderate momenta, the spectrum and time-dependent…
The existence of a fundamental length (or fundamental time) has been conjectured in many contexts. However, the "stability of physical theories principle" seems to be the one that provides, through the tools of algebraic deformation theory,…
Recently, it has been shown (Gavrilov et al., Nonlinear Dyn, 112, 2024) that in a linear solid discrete-continuous system with several slowly time-varying parameters, the amplitude of a strongly localized mode (a trapped wave) can be…
