    Possible quantum effects at the transition from cosmological deceleration to acceleration

    , Physical Review D, Vol: 106, Pages: 1-13, ISSN: 2470-0010

    The recent transition from decelerated to accelerated expansion can be seen as a reflection (or “bounce”) in the connection variable, defined by the inverse comoving Hubble length (b=˙a, on shell). We study the quantum cosmology of this process. We use a formalism for obtaining relational time variables either through the demotion of the constants of nature to integration constants, or by identifying fluid constants of motion. We extend its previous application to a toy model (radiation and Λ) to the realistic setting of a transition from dust matter to Λ domination. In the dust and Λ model two time variables may be defined, conjugate to Λ and to the dust constant of motion, and we work out the monochromatic solutions to the Schrödinger equation representing the Hamiltonian constraint. As for their radiation and Λ counterparts, these solutions exhibit “ringing,” whereby the incident and reflected waves interfere, leading to oscillations in the amplitude. In the semiclassical approximation we find that, close to the bounce, the probability distribution becomes double peaked, one peak following a trajectory close to the classical limit but with a Hubble parameter slightly shifted downwards, the other with a value of b stuck at its minimum b=b⋆. Still closer to the transition, the distribution is better approximated by an exponential distribution, with a single peak at b=b⋆, and a (more representative) average b biased towards a value higher than the classical trajectory. Thus, we obtain a distinctive prediction for the average Hubble parameter with redshift: slightly lower than its classical value when z≈0, but potentially much higher than the classical prediction around z∼0.64, where the bounce most likely occurred. The implications for the “Hubble tension” have not escaped us.

    Integrable supersymmetric deformations of AdS(3)x S(3)x T-4

    , The Journal of High Energy Physics, Vol: 2022, Pages: 1-39, ISSN: 1029-8479

    We construct a family of type IIB string backgrounds that are deformations of AdS3 × S3 × T4 with a “squashed” AdS3 × S3 metric supported by a combination of NSNS and RR fluxes. They have global SU(1, 1) × SU(2) symmetry, regular curvature, constant dilaton and preserve 8 supercharges. Upon compactification to 4 dimensions they reduce to N = 2 supersymmetric AdS2 × S2 solutions with electric and magnetic Maxwell fluxes. These type IIB supergravity solutions can be found from the undeformed AdS3 × S3 × T4 background by a combination of T-dualities and S-duality. In contrast to T-duality, S-duality transformations of a type IIB supergravity background do not generally preserve the classical integrability of the corresponding Green-Schwarz superstring sigma model. Nevertheless, we show that integrability is preserved in the present case. Indeed, we find that these backgrounds can be obtained, up to T-dualities, from an integrable inhomogeneous Yang-Baxter deformation (with unimodular Drinfel’d-Jimbo R-matrix) of the original AdS3 × S3 supercoset model.

    Well-posed UV completion for simulating scalar Galileons

    , Physical Review D: Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, Vol: 106, Pages: 1-10, ISSN: 1550-2368

    The Galileon scalar field theory is a prototypical example of an effective field theory that exhibits the Vainshtein screening mechanism, which is incorporated into many extensions to Einstein gravity. The Galileon describes the helicity-zero mode of gravitational radiation, the presence of which has significant implications for predictions of gravitational waves from orbiting objects and for tests of gravity sensitive to additional polarizations. Because of the derivative nature of their interactions, Galileons are superficially not well posed as effective field theories. Although this property is properly understood merely as an artifact of the effective field theory truncation, and is not theoretically worrisome, at the practical level it nevertheless renders numerical simulation highly problematic. Notwithstanding, previous numerical approaches have successfully evolved the system for reasonable initial data by slowly turning on the interactions. We present here two alternative approaches to improving numerical stability in Galileon numerical simulations. One of these is a minor modification of previous approaches, which introduces a low-pass filter that amounts to imposing a UV cutoff together with a relaxation method of turning on interactions. The second approach amounts to constructing a (numerical) UV completion for which the dynamics of the high momentum modes is under control and for which it is unnecessary to slowly turn on nonlinear interactions. We show that numerical simulations of the UV theory successfully reproduce the correct Galileon dynamics at low energies, consistent with the low-pass filter method and with previous numerical simulations.

    M5-branes wrapped on four-dimensional orbifolds

    , Publisher: ArXiv

    We construct supersymmetric $AdS_3$ solutions of $D=11$ supergravity, dual to$d=2$, $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ SCFTs, that are associated with M5-branes wrappingtwo different four-dimensional orbifolds. In one case the orbifold is a spindlefibred over another spindle, while in the other it is a spindle fibred over aRiemann surface with genus $g>1$. We show that the central charges of the $d=2$SCFTs calculated from the gravity solutions agree with field theorycomputations using anomaly polynomials. The new $D=11$ solutions are obtainedafter constructing a new consistent Kaluza-Klein truncation of maximal $D=7$gauged supergravity reduced on a spindle down to $D=5$ minimal gaugedsupergravity.

    Higgs Effect Without Lunch

    , Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, ISSN: 1364-503X

    Reduction in effective spacetime dimensionality can occur in field-theorymodels more general than the widely studied dimensional reductions based ontechnically consistent truncations. Situations where wavefunction factorsdepend nontrivially on coordinates transverse to the effective lower dimensioncan give rise to unusual patterns of gauge symmetry breaking. Leading-ordergauge modes can be left massless, but naturally occurring Stueckelberg modescan couple importantly at quartic order and higher, thus generating a "covert"pattern of gauge symmetry breaking. Such a situation is illustrated in afive-dimensional model of scalar electrodynamics in which one spatial dimensionis taken to be an interval with Dirichlet/Robin boundary conditions on opposingends. This simple model illuminates a mechanism which also has been found ingravitational braneworld scenarios.

    Linking the network centrality measures closeness and degree

    , Communications Physics, Vol: 5, Pages: 1-11, ISSN: 2399-3650

    Measuring the importance of nodes in a network with a centrality measure is an core task in any network application. There many measures available and it is speculated that many encode similar information. We give an explicit non-linear relationship between two of the most popular measures of node centrality: degree and closeness. Based on a shortest-path tree approximation, we give an analytic derivation that shows the inverse ofcloseness is linearly dependent on the logarithm of degree. We show that our hypothesis works well for a range of networks produced from stochastic network models and for networks derived from 130 real-world data sets. We connect our results with previous results for other network distance scales such as average distance. Our results imply that measuring closeness is broadly redundant unless our relationship is used to remove the dependence on degree from closeness. The success of our relationship suggests that most networks can be approximated by shortest-path spanning trees which are all statistically similar two or more steps away from their root nodes.

    Non-gaussian signatures of a thermal big bang

    , Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, Vol: 2022, Pages: 1-25, ISSN: 1475-7516

    What if Big Bang was hot from its very inception? This is possible in a bimetric theory where the source of fluctuations is thermal, requiring the model to live on a critical boundary in the space of parameters and can be realized when an anti-DBI brane moves within an EAdS2 ×E3 geometry. This setup renders the model unique, with sharp predictions for the scalar spectral index and its running. We investigate the non-Gaussian signatures of this thermal bimetric model, or "bi-thermal" for short. We adapt the standard calculation of non-Gaussianities for P(X,ϕ) models to the thermal nature of the model, emphasising how the bi-thermal peculiarities affect the calculation and alter results. This leads to precise predictions for the shape and amplitude of the three-point function of the bi-thermal model (at tree-level): flocalNL = -3/2 and fequilNL = -2 + 4 √(3)π/9 ≃ 0.4. We also discover a new shape of flattened non-gaussianity ∝ (k1 + k2 - k3)-3/2 + permutations, which is expected due to the excited thermal initial conditions. These results, along with our earlier predictions for the scalar power spectrum, provide sharp targets for the future generation of cosmological surveys.

    Cycle analysis of directed acyclic graphs

    , Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, Vol: 596, Pages: 1-22, ISSN: 0378-4371

    In this paper, we employ the decomposition of a directed network as an undirected graph plus its associated node meta-data to characterise the cyclic structure found in directed networks by finding a Minimal Cycle Basis of the undirected graph and augmenting its components with direction information. We show that only four classes of directed cycles exist, and that they can be fully distinguished by the organisation and number of source–sink node pairs and their antichain structure. We are particularly interested in Directed Acyclic Graphs and introduce a set of metrics that characterise the Minimal Cycle Basis using the Directed Acyclic Graphs meta-data information. In particular, we numerically show that transitive reduction stabilises the properties of Minimal Cycle Bases measured by the metrics we introduced while retaining key properties of the Directed Acyclic Graph. This makes the metrics a consistent characterisation of Directed Acyclic Graphs and the systems they represent. We measure the characteristics of the Minimal Cycle Bases of four models of transitively reduced Directed Acyclic Graphs and show that the metrics introduced are able to distinguish the models and are sensitive to their generating mechanisms.

    The conformal brane-scan: an update

    , JOURNAL OF HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS, Vol: 2022, ISSN: 1029-8479

    Generalizing the The Membrane at the End of the Universe, a 1987 paper Supersingletons by Blencowe and the author conjectured the existence of BPS p-brane configurations (p = 2, 3, 4, 5) and corresponding CFTs on the boundary of anti-de Sitter space with symmetries appearing in Nahm’s classification of superconformal algebras: OSp(N|4) N = 8, 4, 2, 1; SU(2, 2|N) N = 4, 2, 1; F 2(4); OSp(8∗|N), N = 4, 2. This correctly predicted the D3-brane with SU(2, 2|4) on AdS5 × S5 and the M5-brane with OSp(8∗|4) on AdS7 × S4, in addition to the known M2-brane with OSp(8|4) on AdS4 × S7. However, finding non-singular AdS solutions matching the other symmetries was less straightforward. Here we perform a literature search and confirm that all of the empty slots have now been filled, thanks to a number of extra ingredients including warped products and massive Type IIA. Orbifolds, orientifolds and S-folds also play a part providing examples not predicted: SU(2, 2|3), OSp(3|4), OSp(5|4) and OSp(6|4) but not OSp(7|4). We also examine the status of p = (0, 1) configurations.

    The higher-dimensional origin of five-dimensional N=2 gauged supergravities

    , The Journal of High Energy Physics, Vol: 2022, ISSN: 1029-8479

    Using exceptional generalised geometry, we classify which five-dimensional N = 2 gauged supergravities can arise as a consistent truncation of 10-/11-dimensional supergravity. Exceptional generalised geometry turns the classification into an algebraic problem of finding subgroups GS ⊂ USp(8) ⊂ E6(6) that preserve exactly two spinors. Moreover, the intrinsic torsion of the GS structure must contain only constant singlets under GS, and these, in turn, determine the gauging of the five-dimensional theory. The resulting five-dimensional theories are strongly constrained: their scalar manifolds are necessarily symmetric spaces and only a small number of matter multiplets can be kept, which we completely enumerate. We also determine the largest reductive and compact gaugings that can arise from consistent truncations.

    Exactly marginal deformations and their supergravity duals

    , Physical Review Letters, Vol: 128, Pages: 1-6, ISSN: 0031-9007

    We study the space of supersymmetric AdS5 solutions of type IIB supergravity corresponding to the conformal manifold of the dual N=1 conformal field theory. We show that the background geometry naturally encodes a generalized holomorphic structure, dual to the superpotential of the field theory, with the existence of the full solution following from a continuity argument. In particular, this work allows us to address the long-standing problem of finding the gravity dual of the generic N=1 deformations of N=4 conformal field theory: even if we are not able to give it in a fully explicit form, we provide a proof-of-existence of the supergravity solution. Using this formalism, we derive a new result for the Hilbert series of the deformed field theories.

    Simple and statistically sound recommendations for analysing physical theories

    , Reports on Progress in Physics, Vol: 85, ISSN: 0034-4885

    Physical theories that depend on many parameters or are tested against data from many different experiments pose unique challenges to statistical inference. Many models in particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology fall into one or both of these categories. These issues are often sidestepped with statistically unsound ad hoc methods, involving intersection of parameter intervals estimated by multiple experiments, and random or grid sampling of model parameters. Whilst these methods are easy to apply, they exhibit pathologies even in low-dimensional parameter spaces, and quickly become problematic to use and interpret in higher dimensions. In this article we give clear guidance for going beyond these procedures, suggesting where possible simple methods for performing statistically sound inference, and recommendations of readily-available software tools and standards that can assist in doing so. Our aim is to provide any physicists lacking comprehensive statistical training with recommendations for reaching correct scientific conclusions, with only a modest increase in analysis burden. Our examples can be reproduced with the code publicly available at Zenodo.

    Quivers, gauge theories and singular geometries are of great interest in both mathematics and physics. In this note, we collect a few open questions which have arisen in various recent works at the intersection between gauge theories, representation theory, and algebraic geometry. The questions originate from the study of supersymmetric gauge theories in different dimensions with different supersymmetries. Although these constitute merely the tip of a vast iceberg, we hope this guide can give a hint of possible directions in future research.

    Causality constraints on gravitational effective field theories

    We consider the effective field theory of gravity around black holes, and show that the coefficients of the dimension-8 operators are tightly constrained by causality considerations. Those constraints are consistent with—but tighter than—previously derived causality and positivity bounds and imply that the effects of one of the dimension-8 operators by itself cannot be observable while remaining consistent with causality. We then establish in which regime one can expect the generic dimension-8 and lower order operators to be potentially observable while preserving causality, providing a theoretical prior for future observations. We highlight the importance of “infrared causality” and show that the requirement of “asymptotic causality” or net (sub)luminality would fail to properly diagnose violations of causality.

Note to staff:  Adding new publications to a research group

  1. Log in to Symplectic.
  2. Click on Menu > Create Links
  3. Choose what you want to create links between – in this case ‘Publications’ and ‘Organisational structures’.
  4. Choose the organisational structure (research group) into which you want to link the publications and check the box next to it.
  5. Now check the box of any publication you want to add to that group. You can use the filters to find what you want and select multiple publications if necessary. 
  6. Scroll to the bottom and click the blue ‘Create new link’ button to link them.
  7. The publications will be added to the group, and will be displayed on the group publications feed within 24 hours (it is not immediate).

Any problems, talk to Tim Evans or the Faculty Web Team.
