we use the subleading soft-graviton theorem to construct an operator tz z whose insertion in the four-dimensional tree-level quantum gravity s matrix obeys the virasoro-ward identities of the energy momentum tensor of a two-dimensional conformal field theory (cft2 ). the celestial sphere at minkowskian null infinity pl... | 2d stress tensor for 4d gravity |
we complete the calculation of conservative two-body scattering dynamics at fourth post-minkowskian order, i.e., o (g4) and all orders in velocity, including radiative contributions corresponding to the tail effect in general relativity. as in previous calculations, we harness powerful tools from the modern scattering ... | scattering amplitudes, the tail effect, and conservative binary dynamics at o (g4) |
unitary, lorentz-invariant quantum field theories in flat spacetime obey mi-crocausality: commutators vanish at spacelike separation. for interacting theories in more than two dimensions, we show that this implies that the averaged null energy, ∫ dutuu , must be non-negative. this non-local operator appears in the oper... | averaged null energy condition from causality |
we compute the n3lo gravitational quadratic-in-spin interactions at g4 in the post-newtonian (pn) expansion via the effective field theory (eft) of gravitating spinning objects for the first time. this result contributes at the 5pn order for maximally-spinning compact objects, adding the spinning case to the static sec... | n3lo gravitational quadratic-in-spin interactions at g4 |
relativistic navier-stokes equations express the conservation of the energy-momentum tensor and the particle number current in terms of the local hydrodynamic variables: temperature, fluid velocity, and the chemical potential. we show that the viscous-fluid equations are stable and causal if one adopts suitable non-equ... | stable and causal relativistic navier-stokes equations |
in the standard model, some combination of the baryon $\bf b$ and lepton $\bf l$ number symmetry is free of mixed anomalies with strong and electroweak $su(3) \times su(2) \times u(1)_{\tilde y}$ gauge forces. however, it can still suffer from a mixed gravitational anomaly, hypothetically pertinent to leptogenesis in t... | categorical symmetry of the standard model from gravitational anomaly |

according to a number of arguments in quantum gravity, both model-dependent and model-independent, heisenberg's uncertainty principle is modified when approaching the planck scale. this deformation is attributed to the existence of a minimal length. the ensuing models have found entry into the literature under the term... | 30 years in: quo vadis generalized uncertainty principle? |
the double copy is a much-studied relationship between gauge theory and gravity amplitudes. recently, this was generalised to an infinite family of classical solutions to einstein's equations, namely stationary kerr-schild geometries. in this paper, we extend this to the taub-nut solution in gravity, which has a double... | the classical double copy for taub-nut spacetime |
this topical review gives a comprehensive overview and assessment of recent results in causal dynamical triangulations, a modern formulation of lattice gravity, whose aim is to obtain a theory of quantum gravity nonperturbatively from a scaling limit of the lattice-regularized theory. in this manifestly diffeomorphism-... | quantum gravity from causal dynamical triangulations: a review |
in this work, we revisit carrollian hydrodynamics, a type of non-lorentzian hydrodynamics which has recently gained increasing attentions due to its underlying connection with dynamics of spacetime near null boundaries, and we aim at exploring symmetries associated with conservation laws of carrollian fluids. with an e... | carrollian hydrodynamics from symmetries |
we analyse the recent proposal of measuring a quantum gravity phenomenon in the lab by entangling two mesoscopic particles gravitationally. we give a generally covariant description of this phenomenon, where the relevant effect turns out to be a quantum superposition of proper times. we point out that if general relati... | on the possibility of laboratory evidence for quantum superposition of geometries |
we perform a manifestly gauge-independent analysis of the vacuum stability in the standard model including two-loop matching, three-loop renormalization group evolution, and pure qcd corrections through four loops. all these ingredients are exact, except that light-fermion masses are neglected. we in turn apply the cri... | stability of the electroweak vacuum: gauge independence and advanced precision |
new constraints are found that must necessarily hold for israel-stewart-like theories of fluid dynamics to be causal far away from equilibrium. conditions that are sufficient to ensure causality, local existence, and uniqueness of solutions in these theories are also presented. our results hold in the full nonlinear re... | nonlinear constraints on relativistic fluids far from equilibrium |

the current interest in laboratory detection of entanglement mediated by gravity was sparked by an information-theoretic argument: entanglement mediated by a local field certifies that the field is not classical. previous derivations of the effect modeled gravity as instantaneous; here we derive it from linearized quan... | locally mediated entanglement in linearized quantum gravity |
a link between the semiclassical einstein equation and a maximal vacuum entanglement hypothesis is established. the hypothesis asserts that entanglement entropy in small geodesic balls is maximized at fixed volume in a locally maximally symmetric vacuum state of geometry and quantum fields. a qualitative argument sugge... | entanglement equilibrium and the einstein equation |
recently, we introduced the "newman-penrose map", a novel correspondence between a certain class of solutions of einstein's equations and self-dual solutions of the vacuum maxwell equations, which we showed was closely related to the classical double copy. here, we give an alternative definition of this correspondence ... | twistor space origins of the newman-penrose map |

we show that the upper bound of the classical qcd axion window can be significantly relaxed for low-scale inflation. if the gibbons-hawking temperature during inflation is lower than the qcd scale, the initial qcd axion misalignment angle follows the bunch-davies distribution. the distribution is peaked at the strong c... | qcd axion window and low-scale inflation |
an early result of algebraic quantum field theory is that the algebra of any subregion in a qft is a von neumann factor of type iii$_1$, in which entropy cannot be well-defined because such algebras do not admit a trace or density states. however, associated to the algebra is a modular group of automorphisms characteri... | crossed product algebras and generalized entropy for subregions |
