I honestly wonder how the famously right-wing leadership of Home Depot feel about having their workforce specifically targeted, terrorized, and (presumably) encouraged to seek work elsewhere. I doubt they care about these people as human beings, but surely they care about their labor costs. Have we heard any remarks from them? From their shareholders?

This paper addresses these gaps by proposing a novel computational cognitive model of human collision avoidance behavior based on active inference. Activ…

Recent studies [Class. Quant. Grav. 42, 03LT01 (2025); Phys. Rev.

Hyperboloidal neutron star and black hole initial data in spherical symmetry
The focus of this work is on the construction of initial data including a neutron star on a hyperboloidal slice. As simplest scenario for this first step, spherical symmetry is considered together with a polytropic-like equation of state for the neutron star. Constraint-satisfying hyperboloidal initial data are obtained for a single neutron star and for a combination of neutron star with a black hole in its center. To the author's best knowledge this is the first time that full hyperboloidal sl…

Revisiting semiclassical effective dynamics for quantum cosmology
We revise the technique of semiclassical effective dynamics, in particular reexamining the evaluation of Poisson structure of the so-called central moments capturing quantum corrections, providing a systematic, pedagogical, and efficient algorithm for evaluation of said structure. The resulting closed formulae for Poisson brackets involve less summatios than recent results in the literature, thus being more optimal for applications. Found formulae are then applied to a general class of isotropi…

Computation of $\langle Φ^2\rangle$ and quantum fluxes at the polar interior of a spinning black hole
Renormalization of physical quantities for quantum field theories in curved spacetimes can be achieved via the consistent subtraction of counterterms within a regularization scheme such as a point-splitting method. Pragmatic mode-sum regularization (PMR) is a point-splitting method which is particularly suitable for rotating black hole spacetimes. We extend and tailor the t-splitting variant of PMR specifically for the interior of a Kerr black hole on the axis of rotation, focusing on a minimal…

Inconsistency with De Sitter Spacetime in a New Approach to Gravitational Particle Production
We study the recent Physical Review Letter [1] which presents a new mechanism for particle production and black hole evaporation through a spatially dependent temperature. This new temperature is comparable to the Hawking result near the black hole, but is very small far away, and therefore could be a small correction. Here we apply the proposed reasoning to the case of de Sitter space, finding that it over predicts the de Sitter temperature of a minimally coupled scalar by factor of $\approx 4…

Fractional Schwarzschild-Tangherlini black hole with a fractal event horizon
We demonstrate that the implementation of the fractional and non-local Wheeler--DeWitt (WDW) equation within the context of Schwarzschild geometry leads to the emergence of a Schwarzschild--Tangherlini black hole (BH), which is uniquely characterized by an event horizon that exhibits fractal properties and is defined by a non-integer dimension that lies in the continuum between the values of 1 and 2. Our calculations further reveal that this intriguing fractional BH may potentially possess a te…

MatBYIB: A Matlab-based code for Bayesian inference of extreme mass-ratio inspiral binary with arbitrary eccentricity
Accurate parameter estimation(PE) of gravitational waves(GW) is essential for GW data analysis. In extreme mass-ratio inspiral binary(EMRI) systems, orbital eccentricity is a critical parameter for PE. However, current software for for PE of GW often neglects the direct estimation of orbital eccentricity. To fill this gap, we have developed the MatBYIB, a MATLAB-based software package for PE of GW with arbitrary eccentricity. The MatBYIB employs the Analytical Kludge (AK) waveform as a computat…

Impact of the $(\ell=2,m=0)$ spherical harmonic mode with memory on parameter estimation for ground-based detectors
We recently presented an efficient and accurate waveform model for the $(2,0)$ spherical harmonic mode including both the displacement memory contribution and the ringdown oscillations for aligned-spin binary black holes in quasi-circular orbits. The model we developed is constructed in time domain and implemented within the computationally efficient IMRPhenomTHM waveform model. In this article, we employ it to perform in-depth parameter estimation studies for future ground-based detectors, spe…

On the effect of the light bending phenomenon for a pulsar in a binary with a Kerr black hole
We study the effect of light-bending on the signal of a pulsar in binaries with rotating black hole companions, focusing on stellar mass black holes. We show that the impacts of various parameters on the bending delays visually match with those observed for a non-rotating black holes, because the magnitude of the spin as well as the orientation of the spin axis of the black hole introduce changes in the nanosecond order and other parameters do so in the microsecond order. Consequently, the dist…

Stringent requirements for detecting light-induced gravitational effects using interferometry
Intense laser fields have been proposed as a means to generate light-induced gravitational effects, providing a novel approach to investigate gravity and its coupling to electromagnetism in a controlled laboratory setting. In this article, a detection scheme based on interferometry is introduced to assess the feasibility of observing such effects. Initially, the space-time deformation and the resulting induced phase difference are evaluated in homogeneous electric fields. Using the theoretical …
