“Noor, who made so many friends on Bluesky since she started an account there in the summer of 2023, had her account suddenly suspended on Friday. Bluesky did not send a reason for the suspension, so while she wrote an appeal, she did not know what actions she was appealing, so as of now it's still suspended. She’s been silenced, and effectively disappeared.”

A Future for Noor and Her Children
Hello! I'm Meave, a U.S. citizen sponsoring this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friend Noor Hassan and her children. Noor and her son Abdul Rahman are kind, generous people; though their original fundraiser succeeded last summer, supporting themselves and their extended family cost them everything. This fundraiser will allow them to support themselves and save up to buy passage to Egypt and pursue a better future.

Generic Chiral Anomaly and Planar Hall Effect in a Non-Weyl System
The condensed-matter version of the chiral anomaly describes how electrons are pumped from a Weyl node with negative chirality to a Weyl node with positive chirality using parallel electric and magnetic fields. Key experimental signatures are a negative longitudinal magnetoresistance (LMR) and the planar Hall effect (PHE), both of which have been experimentally observed. Here, we show that the chiral anomaly explains key features of magnetotransport in the nodal-line semimetal ZrTe$_5$ despite …

Asymptotic Fate of Continuously Monitored Quantum Systems
A quantum trajectory is the natural response of a quantum system subject to external perturbations due to continuous indirect measurement. We completely characterize the asymptotic behavior of continuously monitored quantum systems in finite dimensions and show that generically, spontaneous irreversible localization transitions on the level of individual realizations occur, where the evolution becomes effectively constrained to one of the irreducible components of the total Hilbert space. More …

AI Tutors vs. Tenacious Myths: Evidence from Personalised Dialogue Interventions in Education
Misconceptions in psychology and education persist despite clear contradictory evidence, resisting traditional correction methods. This study investigated whether personalised AI dialogue could effectively correct these stubborn beliefs. In a preregistered experiment (N = 375), participants holding strong psychology misconceptions engaged in one of three interventions: (1) personalised AI dialogue targeting their specific misconception, (2) generic textbook-style refutation, or (3) neutral AI d…

Krylov Complexity in Lifshitz-type Dirac Field Theories
We study Krylov complexity in Lifshitz-type Dirac field theories with a generic dynamical critical exponent z. By computing the Lanczos coefficients for massless and massive cases, we analyze the growth and saturation behavior of K-complexity in different regimes. We incorporate a hard UV cutoff and investigate the effects of lattice discretization, revealing fundamental differences between continuum and lattice models. In the presence of a UV cutoff, Krylov complexity exhibits an initial expon…

Inhomogeneous Quantum Quenches of Conformal Field Theory with Boundaries
We develop a method to calculate generic time-dependent correlation functions for inhomogeneous quantum quenches in (1+1)-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) induced by sudden Hamiltonian deformations that modulate the energy density inhomogeneously. Our work particularly focuses on the effects of spatial boundaries, which have remained unresolved by previous analytical methods. For generic post-quench Hamiltonian, we develop a generic method to calculate the correlations by mirroring the …

GarmageNet: A Multimodal Generative Framework for Sewing Pattern Design and Generic Garment Modeling
Realistic digital garment modeling remains a labor-intensive task due to the intricate process of translating 2D sewing patterns into high-fidelity, simulation-ready 3D garments. We introduce GarmageNet, a unified generative framework that automates the creation of 2D sewing patterns, the construction of sewing relationships, and the synthesis of 3D garment initializations compatible with physics-based simulation. Central to our approach is Garmage, a novel garment representation that encodes e…

How should libraries respond to the deluge of AI-generated book submissions, sometimes dozens at a time? My Tuesday talk for the MLA considered:
- An outright ban
- Restriction to a specific "AI shelf"
- A required % of human authorship
- Restriction to certain genres (fiction yes/medical advice no)
- Community vetting
What would you do?

On the algebraic transfers of ranks 4 and 6 at generic degrees
Let $\mathscr A$ denote the classical singly-graded Steenrod algebra over the binary field $\mathbb Z/2.$ We write $P_k:=\mathbb Z/2[t_1, t_2, \ldots, t_k]$ as the polynomial algebra on $k$ generators, each having a degree of one. Let $GL_k$ be the general linear group of rank $k$ over $\mathbb Z/2.$ Then, $P_k$ is an $ \mathscr A[GL_k]$-module. The structure of the cohomology groups, ${\rm Ext}_{ \mathscr A}^{k, k+\bullet}(\mathbb Z/2, \mathbb Z/2)$, of the Steenrod algebra has, thus far, resi…
