Multiscale Hilbert expansion and hydrodynamics beyond Navier-Stokes
A truncated Hilbert expansion with multiple scales is used to construct asymptotic solution of the linearized one-dimensional Boltzmann equation with small Knudsen number. The freedom ganed by introducing new independent time variables is exploited to eliminate the sources of secular behavior as the time interval increases. The regular gas-dynamic equations then appear as necessary conditions for expansion to be uniformly valid on a long time intervals.

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].

A New Approach to the Glass Transition of Percolated Polymers from the Perspective of Thermal Volume Expansion
In 1995, the Nobel Price winner P.W. Anderson made the following remarkable statement: The deepest and most interesting unsolved problem in solid state theory is probably the theory of the nature of glass and glass transition. Although there have been new theoretical developments in the meantime, in our opinion, this situation has only improved marginally to date. One of the main reasons is the insufficient consideration of experimental boundary conditions. A central experimental problem arises…

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…

[…] Paradoxically, the more a population grew, the more precious it became, as it offered a supply of cheap labour, and by lowering costs allowed a greater expansion of production and trade. In this infinitely open labour market, the ‘fundamental price’, which for Turgot meant a subsistence level for workers, and the price determined by supply and demand ended up as the same thing. A country was all the more commercially competitive for having at its disposal the virtual wealth that a large population represented.
Confinement was therefore a clumsy error, and an economic one at that: there was no sense in trying to suppress poverty by taking it out of the economic circuit and providing for a poor population by charitable means. To do that was merely to hide poverty, and suppress an important section of the population, which was always a given wealth. Rather than helping the poor escape their provisionally indigent situation, charity condemned them to it, and dangerously so, by putting a brake on the labour market in a period of crisis. What was required was to palliate the high cost of products with cheaper labour, and to make up for their scarcity by a new industrial and agricultural effort. The only reasonable remedy was to reinsert the population in the circuit of production, being sure to place labour in areas where manpower was most scarce. The use of paupers, vagabonds, exiles and émigrés of any description was one of the secrets of wealth in the competition between nations. […]
Confinement was to be criticised because of the effects it had on the labour market, but also because like all other traditional forms of charity, it constituted a dangerous form of finance. As had been the case in the Middle Ages, the classical era had constantly attempted to look after the needs of the poor by a system of foundations. This implied that a section of the land capital and revenues were out of circulation. In a definitive manner too, as the concern was to avoid the commercialisation of assistance to the poor, so judicial measures had been taken to ensure that this wealth never went back into circulation. But as time passed, their usefulness diminished: the economic situation changed, and so did the nature of poverty.
«Society does not always have the same needs. The nature and distribution of property, the divisions between the different orders of the people, opinions, customs, the occupations of the majority of the population, the climate itself, diseases and all the other accidents of human life are in constant change. New needs come into being, and old ones disappear.» [Turgot, Encyclopédie]
The definitive character of a foundation was in contradiction with the variable and changing nature of the accidental needs to which it was designed to respond. The wealth that it immobilised was never put back into circulation, but more wealth was to be created as new needs appeared. The result was that the proportion of funds and revenues removed from circulation constantly increased, while that of production fell in consequence. The only possible result was increased poverty, and a need for more foundations. The process could continue indefinitely, and the fear was that one day ‘the ever increasing number of foundations might absorb all private funds and all private property’. When closely examined, classical forms of assistance were a cause of poverty, bringing a progressive immobilisation that was like the slow death of productive wealth:
«If all the men who have ever lived had been given a tomb, sooner or later some of those sterile monuments would have been dug up in order to find land to cultivate, and it would have become necessary to stir the ashes of the dead in order to feed the living.» [Turgot, Lettre Š Trudaine sur le Limousin]

Monodromy Relations for String Amplitudes on AdS
We consider the $AdS$ Veneziano amplitude describing the scattering of four gluons in type IIB string theory on $AdS_5 \times S^3$. We propose a set of powerful monodromy relations between different colour-ordered amplitudes. These relations arise as a consequence of the emergent world-sheet description of open string scattering on $AdS$. In flat space, they reduce to the usual monodromy relations for the Veneziano amplitude, and they hold order by order in the small curvature expansion. The re…

We then use Soft Collinear Effective Theory and vNRQCD to derive a factorization theorem for $J/ψ$ production in SIDIS in terms of the…

Additionally, by employing recursion relations, we established the equivalence between nonlocal gravity and higher-derivative gravity. Moreover, we provid…

Reversal of strain state in a Mott insulator thin film by controlling substrate morphology
The V2O3 phase diagram contains two insulating phases and one metallic phase with different lattice structures. The stability of these phases is very sensitive to pressure, offering a mechanism to tune phase transitions by inducing strain in thin films. The most studied source of strain is lattice mismatch between the film and the substrate. In this work, however, we find that the film/substrate thermal expansion mismatch can be made to play a dominant role by modifying the substrate morphology…

In this work, we investigate the generation of the ambipolar electric field in a gravitationally stratified, collisionless plasma atmosphere. In such environments, gravity tends to separate charged species. To prevent separation an electric field, classically described by the Pannekoek-Rosseland expression, is usually imposed externally. Here, we propose a self-consistent method to recover this field based on a multi-mode Fourier expansion of the electrostatic interaction. We show that, under s…

We propose a new asymptotic expansion method for nonlinear filtering, based on a small parameter in the system noise. The conditional expectation is expanded as a power series in the noise level, with each coefficient computed by solving a system of ordinary differential equations. This approach mitigates the trade-off between computational efficiency and accuracy inherent in existing methods such as Gaussian approximations and particle filters. Moreover, by incorporating an Edgeworth-type expa…

Forecasting the Observable Rates of Gravitationally Lensed Supernovae for the PASSAGES Dusty Starbursts
More than 60 years have passed since the first formal suggestion to use strongly-lensed supernovae to measure the expansion rate of the Universe through time-delay cosmography. Yet, fewer than 10 such objects have ever been discovered. We consider the merits of a targeted strategy focused on lensed hyperluminous infrared galaxies-- among the most rapidly star-forming galaxies known in the Universe. With star formation rates (SFRs) $\sim {200 - 6000}~\textrm{M}_\odot~\textrm{yr}^{-1}$, the $\sim…

Simple Method for Stripping Polyimide-Coated Optical Fiber
We present a simple method for removing polyimide coatings from optical fibers using inexpensive and readily available solvents. Impacts of solvent mixing ratios, soak temperature, material expansion, wicking, and drying are described to provide empirical context for the method. We find that soaking fibers for six hours in a 2:1 mixture of methanol to acetone at room temperature enables easy stripping of a length slightly greater than the soak length.

Beyond Belief Propagation: Cluster-Corrected Tensor Network Contraction with Exponential Convergence
Tensor network contraction on arbitrary graphs is a fundamental computational challenge with applications ranging from quantum simulation to error correction. While belief propagation (BP) provides a powerful approximation algorithm for this task, its accuracy limitations are poorly understood and systematic improvements remain elusive. Here, we develop a rigorous theoretical framework for BP in tensor networks, leveraging insights from statistical mechanics to devise a \emph{cluster expansion}…

Expansion of Integer Matrices over Various Rings
In this article, we explore the problem of constructing high-dimensional expanders through the study of relations between expansion constants over different rings. We investigate expansion constants of integer matrices regarded as morphisms between free modules over $\mathbb{R}$, $\mathbb{Z}$, and $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$. We introduce a new condition which we call integral spanning regarding kernels of integer matrices, and prove that it ensures equality of real and integral expansions. In add…

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 …

Enhanced Matter Power Spectrum from Axion Kination after Big Bang Nucleosynthesis
Despite stringent constraints from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) and cosmic microwave background (CMB) observations, it is still possible for well-motivated particle physics models to substantially alter the cosmic expansion history between BBN and recombination. In this work we consider two different axion models that can realize a period of first matter domination, then kination, in this epoch. We perform fits to both primordial element abundances as well as CMB data and determine that up to…

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…

Our study explores gravitational baryogenesis in the context of f(R, Lm, T) gravity, where R denotes the Ricci scalar, Lm represents the Lagrangian density of the matter field, and T stands for the metric contraction of T_{mu nu}. We focus on a linear model: f(R, Lm, T) = alpha R + beta Lm + gamma T, and examine the parameter constraints for a successful baryon asymmetry generation in four different eras of the cosmos under the assumption of a power-law cosmic expansion.

Further examples of the utility of stochastic geometric representations are pres…

We discovered unique uniaxial negative thermal expansion (NTE) behavior for a weak-itinerant-ferromagnetic phase of CoZr$_{2}$H$_{3.49}$. CoZr$_{2}$ is known as a superconductor exhibiting uniaxial NTE along the $c$-axis, which is called anomalous thermal expansion (ATE). Additionally, CoZr$_{2}$ is also known as a well-absorbent of hydrogen, and hydrogen insertion raises weak-itinerant ferromagnetism instead of superconductivity. However, the influence of hydrogen insertion on ATE behavior in …

Weakly model-independent determination of total expansion during inflation
We study systematically the total expansion experienced by a certain perturbation mode during single-field inflation, not resorting to explicit models of inflation or reheating. By assuming that during the reheating stage the equation of state w{rh} can be written as a function of e-folds, the unknown dynamics during reheating parametrized by w{rh} is confined within a time integral so that any dependence on the models of inflation and reheating is isolated from model-independent contributions.…

A solution is provided by the bilateral convergent sum $G(z)=\frac12\sqrtπ\sum_{n\in{\mathbb Z}}(2nπ{\rm i}-\log(z))^{-3/2}$.
