Descending into the Modular Bootstrap

arXiv:2604. 01275v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we attempt to explore the landscape of two-dimensional conformal field theories (2d CFTs) by efficiently searching for numerical solutions to the modular bootstrap equation using machine-learning-style optimization.

Exact Symmetry as Algebra: A Machine-Verified Tensor Calculus that Enforces Physical Selection Rules

arXiv:2605. 20440v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Symmetry is central to the physical sciences, yet machine learning usually captures it only approximately, leaving a residual per-step equivariance error $\varepsilon$ that compounds with depth $M$ as $M\varepsilon$, whereas exact equivariance holds at unbounded depth; we demonstrate this divergence at fourteen orders of magnitude.

Approximating Whittle-Matern Fields over Discretized Manifolds

arXiv:2606. 13827v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Markovian Whittle-Mat\'ern fields have been convergently approximated by discrete Gauss Markov Random Fields (GMRFs) with sparse precision matrices using a Finite Element approximation of the two-parameter family, \[ (\kappa^2 - \Delta)^{\alpha/2} u = \mathcal{W}, \;\; \kappa \in \mathbb{R}, \; \alpha \in \mathbb{N}.
