Quantum $f$-divergences and Their Local Behaviour: An Analysis via Relative Expansion Coefficients
Any reasonable measure of distinguishability of quantum states must satisfy a data processing inequality, that is, it must not increase under the action of a quantum channel. We can ask about the proportion of information lost or preserved and this leads us to study contraction and expansion coefficients respectively, which can be combined into a single \emph{relative expansion coefficient} for study. We focus on two prominent families: (i) standard quantum $f$ divergences and (ii) their local …

Viscoelastic flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid through a slowly varying contraction-expansion channel: pressure drop and elastic stress relaxation
Viscoelastic fluid flows in narrow non-uniform geometries are ubiquitous in various engineering applications and physiological flow systems. For such flows, one of the key interests is understanding how fluid viscoelasticity affects the flow rate-pressure drop relation, which remains not fully understood. We analyze the flow of the Oldroyd-B fluid in slowly varying contraction-expansion channels, commonly referred to as constrictions. Unlike most previous theoretical studies focusing on contrac…

Stabilisability and beta representations
We consider a one dimensional affine switched system obtained from a formal limit of a two dimensional linear system. We show this is equivalent to minimising the average digit in beta representations with unrestricted digits. We give a countable set of $β$ for which the result is given by the usual (greedy) beta expansion, an interval of values for which it is strictly less, and a conditional lower bound for all $β$.

Diffusion Codes: Self-Correction from Small(er)-Set Expansion with Tunable Non-locality
Optimal constructions of classical LDPC codes can be obtained by choosing the Tanner graph uniformly at random among biregular graphs. We introduce a class of codes that we call ``diffusion codes'', defined by placing each edge connecting bits and checks on some graph, and acting on that graph with a random SWAP network. By tuning the depth of the SWAP network, we can tune a tradeoff between the amount of randomness -- and hence the optimality of code parameters -- and locality with respect to …

A moderate share of V2G outperforms large-scale smart charging of electric vehicles and benefits other consumers
While battery electric vehicles (BEVs) play a key role for decarbonizing the transport sector, their impact on the power sector heavily depends on their charging strategies.

Using a capacity expansion model, we find that even a moderate share of bidirectional charging below 30% leads to lower system costs than a fully smartly …

On the $b$-ary expansion of a real number whose irrationality exponent is close to 2
Let $b \ge 2$ be an integer and $ξ$ an irrational real number. We establishes that, if the irrationality exponent of $ξ$ is less than $2.324 \ldots$, then the $b$-ary expansion of $ξ$ cannot be `too simple', in a suitable sense. This improves the results of our previous paper [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci., 2017].

Computation of operator exponentials using the Dunford-Cauchy integral
We consider an n-qubit quantum system with a Hamiltonian, defined by an expansion in the Pauli basis, and propose a new algorithm for classical computing the exponential of the Hamiltonian. The algorithm is based on the representation of the exponential by the Dunford-Cauchy integral, followed by an efficient computation of the resolvent, and is suitable for Hamiltonians that are sparse in the Pauli basis. The practical efficiency of the algorithm is demonstrated by two illustrative examples.

Signatures of Galactic Expansion in Gaia DR3: Implications for the JWST Early-Galaxy Puzzle
Recent observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) of massive galaxies at ages below 1 Gyr pose a challenge to standard models of galaxy formation, which predict significantly longer assembly timescales. One possible explanation is that active galactic nuclei (AGN) drive large scale outflows that accelerate galaxy growth. To test this scenario in the local Universe, we analyzed Gaia DR3 data for stars within 5 kpc of the Galactic center, computing galactocentric radial velocities (v…

Hartree-Fock emulators for nuclei: Application to charge radii of $^{48,52}$Ca
Understanding the emergence of complex structures of nuclei from chiral effective field theory (EFT) is a central challenge. The large number of low-energy couplings (LECs) in the EFT expansion and the significant cost of $\textit{ab initio}$ many-body calculations render large-scale sensitivity studies of many-body observables computationally prohibitive, necessitating the use of emulators as low-cost surrogates. In this work, we study a Hartree-Fock emulator based on eigenvector continuation …

Primordial Black Holes and their Mass Spectra: The Effects of Mergers and Accretion within Stasis Cosmologies
A variety of processes in the very early universe can give rise to a population of primordial black holes (PBHs) with an extended mass spectrum. For certain mass spectra of this sort, it has been shown that the evaporation of these PBHs into radiation can drive the universe toward an epoch of cosmological stasis which can persist for a significant number of $e$-folds of cosmological expansion. However, in general, the initial mass spectrum which characterizes a population of PBHs at the time of…

Sojourns of Vector-Valued Stationary Gaussian Random Fields
For a centered, homogeneous R^d-valued Gaussian random field X(t), t in R^k, with covariance matrix function R(s,t) = E[X(s) X(t)^T], we investigate the exact asymptotics of kappa_u(x) = P( theta(u) * integral over [0,T]^k of 1{X(t) > u b} dt > x ), where b = (b1, ..., bd)^T, as u -> infinity, with x >= 0 and T > 0, and theta(u) is a scaling function related to the expansion of R(s,t) around (0,0). To approximate kappa_u(x), we extend both Berman's original approach and the uniform double-sum…

Vanishing Coefficients of q^{5n+r} and q^{7n+r} in Certain Infinite q-series Expansions
Motivated by the recent work of several authors on vanishing coefficients of the arithmetic progression in certain $q$-series expansion, we study some variants of these $q$-series and prove some comparable results. For instance, if $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}c_1(n)q^n=\left(\pm q^2,\pm q^3; q^5\right)_\infty^2 \left( q, q^{14}; q^{15}\right)_\infty$, then $c_1(5n+3)=0$.

Binary Neutron Stars from the Moon: Early Warnings and Precision Science for the Artemis Era
Binary neutron star mergers are unique probes of matter at extreme density and standard candles of cosmic expansion. The only such event observed in both gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation, GW170817, revealed the origin of heavy elements, constrained the neutron star equation of state, and provided an independent measurement of the Hubble constant. Current detectors such as LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA capture only the final minutes of inspiral, offering limited advance warning and coa…

Proper time expansions and glasma dynamics
The earliest phase of an ultrarelativistic heavy ion collision can be described as a highly populated system of gluons called glasma. The system's dynamics is governed by the classical Yang-Mills equation. Solutions can be found at early times using a proper time expansion. Since the expansion parameter is the time, this method is necessarily limited to the study of early time dynamics. In addition compute time and memory limitations restrict practical calculations to no more than eighth order …

The g-2 in the neutral Electroweak model with cutoff: convergent expansion, RG and the Jackiw-Weinberg formula
The prediction of the anomalous gyromagnetic factor of the electron, started with the evaluation of the electromagnetic contribution by Schwinger (1948) and of the weak contribution by Jackiw and Weinberg (1972), is one of the major successes of Quantum Field Theory and the Standard Model. The results obtained truncating the series are in spectacular agreement with experiments. Yet, a mathematical justification and an estimate of the truncation error are problematic, being such series diverging…

Six loop critical exponent analysis for Lee-Yang and percolation theory
Using the recent six loop renormalization group functions for Lee-Yang and percolation theory constructed by Schnetz from a scalar cubic Lagrangian, we deduce the $ε$ expansion of the critical exponents for both cases. Estimates for the exponents in three, four and five dimensions are extracted using two-sided Padé approximants and shown to be compatible with values from other approaches.

Gravitational waves from axion inflation in the gradient expansion formalism II: Fermionic axion inflation
Axion inflation represents an intriguing source of gravitational waves (GWs) from the early Universe. In a companion paper arXiv:2508.00798, we previously leveraged the gradient expansion formalism (GEF) to investigate pure axion inflation (PAI), i.e., axion inflaton coupled to a pure gauge sector. In this paper, we extend our analysis to fermionic axion inflation (FAI), i.e., we allow for the presence of fermions in the gauge sector. PAI predicts a strongly blue-tilted GW spectrum; in our GEF …

Small-$b$ expansion of the DOZZ formula for light operators
We present a systematic small-$b$ expansion of the Liouville DOZZ three-point structure constant in the light-operator regime $α_i = bσ_i$ as $b\to 0$. In this limit, the exact DOZZ function factorizes into a prefactor $\mathcal{P}(b;σ_1,σ_2,σ_3)$ and a power series in $b^2$, \[ C(bσ_1,bσ_2,bσ_3) =\mathcal{P}(b;σ_i)\Bigl[1+\sum_{n=1}^\infty b^{2n}\,Ω_n(σ_1,σ_2,σ_3)\Bigr]. \] Using Thorn's asymptotic expansion of the $Υ_b$-function, we derive closed-form expressions for the leading…

Fermionic versus Spin Baths in non-Interacting Transport Models
We investigate how fermionic anticommutation shapes transport in a noninteracting resonant-level model where a single central site is coupled to an environment. To this end, we compare a fermionic reservoir with a bath of spin-half modes using exact diagonalization and a perturbative expansion of the master equation to identify the differences. Notably, we find different reduced dynamics for the spin and fermionic baths even though the particles remain noninteracting and both models enforce loc…

Supergroup Invariants and the Brane/Negative Brane Expansion
We propose a Molien--Weyl-type formula computing generating functions of invariants of supergroups $U(N|M)$, i.e. polynomials in supertraces, which arise as gauge groups of brane/negative brane systems in string theory. We either prove or numerically verify the formula in various examples. The formula further leads to a new expansion relating finite-$N$ and infinite-$N$ indices of $U(N)$ gauge theories. We comment on its relation to Murthy's Giant Graviton expansion, for which we suggest a…

Cumulant expansion approach to the decay dynamics of interacting Mössbauer nuclei after strong impulsive excitation
Recent progress in accelerator-based x-ray sources brings higher excitation of ensembles of Mössbauer nuclei closer to experimental feasibility. Yet, a theoretical modeling of the decay dynamics of the interacting nuclear ensemble after the impulsive excitation is still an open challenge. Here, we derive a set of nonlinear equations which is capable of efficiently modeling large nuclear ensembles for arbitrary degrees of excitation. As key signature for higher excitation, we identify a non-lin…
