Summary: The study focuses on three-dimensional lattice SU(N-c) gauge theories with complex scalar fields, investigating the Higgs phases, critical behaviors, and the role of quartic scalar potential in determining symmetries. The numerical results suggest the existence of charged critical behaviors for N-f > N-f*, with 20 < N-f* < 40 in the case of N-c = 2.

Summary: This study introduces a new scenario for the formation of primordial black holes, where long-range forces mediated by scalar fields lead to the formation of heavy particle halos that collapse into black holes. The model explains the abundance and mass function of PBHs, as well as the connection between dark-sector particles and dark matter PBHs. Additionally, the model predicts a small contribution to the number of effective light degrees of freedom, which can help reconcile different measurements of the Hubble constant.

Summary: The study reveals the existence of a special phase transition and an extraordinary phase with logarithmically decaying correlations in the presence of a bidimensional surface in the three-dimensional Heisenberg universality class. These findings help explain some recent puzzling results on the boundary critical behavior of quantum spin models.

Summary: Based on large-scale density matrix renormalization group techniques, this study investigates the critical behaviors of quantum three-state Potts chains with long-range interactions. Using fidelity susceptibility as an indicator, a complete phase diagram of the system is obtained. The results reveal that as the long-range interaction power increases, the critical points shift towards lower values, and a critical threshold for the long-range interaction power is determined for the first time. This work provides important insights into phase transitions in quantum spin chains with long-range interactions.

Summary: In this paper, we investigate the behavior of statistical physics models on a book with pages that are isomorphic to half-planes. We prove that even for models undergoing a continuous phase transition on Z(2), the phase transition becomes discontinuous as soon as the number of pages is sufficiently large. Our work confirms predictions in theoretical physics and provides further evidence for the analysis of certain quantum spin systems.

Summary: The ground-state entanglement entropy of the extended Bose-Hubbard model with infinite-range interactions was studied. Different behaviors of entanglement entropy were observed at the insulator-superfluid transition under different fillings, as well as the presence of a critical logarithmic term at the superfluid-to-supersolid transition.

Summary: Bulk active fluids are unstable due to activity destroying long-range ordering. However, a 3D active liquid model shows that stable states can form at fluid-fluid interfaces. While active units cannot break rotation symmetry in bulk fluids, they can form stable active nematic and polar states at interfaces. This surface ordering transition may have functional consequences for active transport.

Summary: In this paper, a cubic field theory involving scalar and anticommuting scalar fields is formulated. The results are generalized to a class of symmetric field theories with specific critical dimensions. The critical theories are proposed to be the UV completions of sigma models with specific properties. The quintic field theory with OSp(1 vertical bar 4)) symmetry is of particular interest and is used to predict the critical behavior of a lattice system.

Summary: This study proves that under certain conditions, there is no infinite cluster at the critical parameter in long-range Bernoulli percolation on Z(d), while also providing a new power-law upper bound. As part of the proof, a universal inequality is established, leading to a new rigorous hyperscaling inequality involving the cluster-volume exponent and two-point function exponent.

Summary: This study investigated the uncertainty in predicting wind farm noise, including parametric and model structure uncertainty. It found that different ground impedance and wind speed profile models were significant sources of uncertainty, resulting in noise level differences of more than 10 dBA at distances greater than 3.5 km. The differences in atmospheric vertical wind speed profile models were identified as the main source of uncertainty in long-range noise prediction. Therefore, acknowledging the variability associated with different models is important to reduce the uncertainty of predicted values in wind farm noise assessment.

Summary: Understanding the low-temperature pure state structure of spin glasses continues to be a challenge in the field of statistical mechanics. By studying Monte Carlo dynamics in a one-dimensional Ising spin-glass model, it was found that dynamic correlation length grows with time in a power-law manner, and the decay of the correlation function follows a power-law behavior at large times, revealing unique phenomena different from traditional spin glass models.

Summary: The study focuses on the nonequilibrium dynamics of the nonconserved Ising model with power-law decaying long-range interactions in two spatial dimensions at zero temperature. They found that the growth exponent is independent of the parameter sigma and the fractal dimension only recovers to the value of the nearest-neighbor Ising model in the large interaction region.

Summary: In this study, the behavior of the two-point correlation function of a scalar field passively advected by a turbulent flow at large wavenumbers is investigated. Through analysis of the Kraichnan model and the Navier-Stokes equation model, it is found that the two-point correlation function of the scalar decays exponentially with time delay at high wavenumbers, and the prefactor is proportional to k(2). The assumption of delta-correlation in time of the stochastic velocity field in the Kraichnan model significantly alters the statistical temporal behavior of the scalar at small times.

Summary: This study demonstrates the instability in d-dimensional conformal field theories, related to a tachyonic instability in AdS/CFT theory and violation of the Breitenlohner-Freedman bound in AdS(d+1). By applying harmonic analysis for the Euclidean conformal group, the instability for d-dimensional CFTs derived directly for multiscalar quantum field theory limits.

Summary: The study examines the long-range bosonic O(N)(3) model on a spherical background and confirms the validity of the F-theorem in this non-unitary case. Despite the model being non-unitary, tests suggest that large-N CFTs are unitary, indicating that the F-theorem holds for large N. Additionally, the study demonstrates how conformal partial waves expansions can be used to resum infinite classes of vacuum diagrams.

Summary: In this study, we investigate the double- and triple-scaling limits of a complex multi-matrix model with U(N)(2) x O(D) symmetry. We find that in the double-scaling limit, the Feynman graphs exhibit a recursive structure, while in the triple-scaling limit, the dominant graphs have a plane binary tree structure with decorations. Moreover, the critical behavior of these dominant graphs belongs to the universality classes of branched polymers and Liouville quantum gravity.

Summary: This paper computes the four-loop beta functions of short and long-range multi-scalar models with general sextic interactions and complex fields, and specializes them to a U(N)(3) symmetry. The results show the existence of a non-trivial stable fixed point in the short-range case, but no precursor of the large-N fixed point in the long-range case.

Summary: We discuss the generalization of the Harish-Chandra-Itzykson-Zuber integral to tensors and analyze its asymptotic behavior for large N. Assumptions on the scaling of external tensors with N are made. Our study reveals non-trivial asymptotic regimes for a two-parameter class of scaling ansatze. This research is important for understanding the entanglement properties of multipartite quantum systems and its potential applications to randomized local measurements.
