Statistical coupling constants from hidden sector entanglement
String theory predicts that the couplings of Nature descend from dynamical fields. All known string-motivated particle physics models also come with a wide range of possible extra sectors.

We suggest a clockwork mechanism for a Higgs-like inflation with the non-minimal coupling term $\xi\phi^2 R$. The seemingly unnatural ratio of parameters, $\lambda/\xi^2 \sim 10^{-10}$ of the self quartic coupling of the inflaton, $\lambda$, and the non-minimal coupling, $\xi$, is understood by exponential suppression ...

Mixed mode oscillations and phase locking in coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo model neurons
We study the dynamics of a low-dimensional system of coupled model neurons as a step towards understanding the vastly complex network of neurons in the brain. We analyze the bifurcation structure of a system of two model neurons with unidirectional coupling as a function of two physiologically relevant parameters: the ...

Long live the Higgs portal!
In Higgs portal models of fermion dark matter, scalar couplings are unavoidably suppressed by strong bounds from direct detection experiments. As a consequence, thermal dark matter relics must coexist with mediators in a compressed spectrum of dark particles. Small couplings and small mass splittings lead to slow media...

A note on a conjecture for the critical curve of a weakly coupled system of semilinear wave equations with scale-invariant lower order terms
In this note two blow-up results are proved for a weakly coupled system of semilinear wave equations with distinct scale-invariant lower order terms both in the subcritical case and in the critical case, when the damping and the mass terms make both equations in some sense "wave-like". In the proof of the subcritical c...

Coherent interplay between surface acoustic waves and coupled mechanical resonators: transition from plasmon-like to surface mediated coupling
Manipulation of mechanical motion at the micro-scale has been attracting continuous attention, leading to the successful implementation of various strategies with potential impact on classical and quantum information processing. We here propose an approach based on the interplay between a pair of localized mechanical r...

Global phase diagram of a spin-orbit-coupled Kondo lattice model on the honeycomb lattice
Motivated by the growing interest in the novel quantum phases in materials with strong electron correlations and spin-orbit coupling, we study the interplay between the spin-orbit coupling, Kondo interaction, and magnetic frustration of a Kondo lattice model on a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice. We calculate the reno...

Polaron mobility in the "beyond quasiparticles" regime
In a number of physical situations, from polarons to Dirac liquids and to non-Fermi liquids, one encounters the "beyond quasiparticles" regime, in which the inelastic scattering rate exceeds the thermal energy of quasiparticles. Transport in this regime cannot be described by the kinetic equation. We employ the Diagram...

A note on the global stochastic maximum principle for fully coupled forward-backward stochastic systems
Hu et. al 2018 studied a stochastic optimal control problem for fully coupled forward-backward stochastic control systems with a nonempty control domain. By assuming a weakly coupled condition, they established an approach to obtain the first-order, second-order variational equations and the adjoint equations for the s...

Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling in [111]-oriented semiconductor nanowires
The contribution of bulk inversion asymmetry to the total spin-orbit coupling is commonly neglected for group III-V nanowires grown in the generic [111] direction. We have solved the complete Hamiltonian of the circular nanowire accounting for bulk inversion asymmetry via exact numerical diagonalization. Three differen...

Excitation of whispering gallery modes with a "point-and-play", fiber-based, optical nano-antenna
We demonstrate the excitation and detection of whispering gallery modes in optical microresonators using a "point-and-play", fiber-based, optical nano-antenna. The coupling mechanism is based on cavity-enhanced Rayleigh scattering. Collected spectra exhibit Lorentzian dips, Fano shapes, or Lorentzian peaks, with a coup...

Effect of spin-orbit coupling on tunnelling escape of Bose-Einstein condensate
We theoretically investigate quantum tunnelling escape of a spin-orbit (SO) coupled Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) from a trapping well. The condensate is initially prepared in a quasi-one-dimensional harmonic trap. Depending on the system parameters, the ground state can fall in different phases --- single minimum, se...

Kinetically coupled dark energy
The main goal of this work is to propose a generalized model of interacting dark energy which allows for the kinetic term of a scalar field to couple to the matter species a priori in the action. We derive the modified field equations, and present novel cosmological solutions for a specific coupled model. One alluring ...

Experimental demonstration of linear and spinning Janus dipoles for polarisation and wavelength selective near-field coupling
The electromagnetic field scattered by nano-objects contains a broad range of wave vectors and can be efficiently coupled to waveguided modes. The dominant contribution to scattering from subwavelength dielectric and plasmonic nanoparticles is determined by electric and magnetic dipolar responses. Here, we experimental...

The uncoupling limit of identical Hopf bifurcations with an application to perceptual bistability
We study the dynamics arising when two identical oscillators are coupled near a Hopf bifurcation where we assume a parameter $\epsilon$ uncouples the system at $\epsilon=0$. Using a normal form for $N=2$ identical systems undergoing Hopf bifurcation, we explore the dynamical properties. Matching the normal form coeffic...

Extracting the pomeron-pomeron-$f_{2}(1270)$ coupling in the $p p \to p p π^{+} π^{-}$ reaction through angular distributions of the pions
We discuss how to extract the pomeron-pomeron-$f_2(1270)$ ($\mathbb{P} \mathbb{P} f_2(1270)$) coupling within the tensor-pomeron model. The general $\mathbb{P} \mathbb{P} f_2(1270)$ coupling is a combination of seven basic couplings (tensorial structures). To study these tensorial structures we propose to measure the c...

Fast and realistic coupling of blood flow and vessel wall is of great importance to virtual surgery. In this paper, we propose a novel data-driven coupling method that formulates physics-based blood flow simulation as a regression problem, using an improved periodic-corrected neural network (PcNet), estimating the acce...

Low-impedance superconducting microwave resonators for strong coupling to small magnetic mode volumes
Recent experiments on strongly coupled microwave and ferromagnetic resonance modes have focused on large volume bulk crystals such as yttrium iron garnet, typically of millimeter-scale dimensions. We extend these experiments to lower volumes of magnetic material by exploiting low-impedance lumped-element microwave reso...

Comment on "Superconductivity at low density near a ferroelectric quantum critical point: Doped SrTiO3"
W\"olfle and Balatsky Phys. Rev. B 98, 104505 (2018) have proposed a microscopic pairing mechanism for doped SrTiO$_3$ (STO) based on the ${\textit gradient}$ coupling of electronic density to the soft TO phonon mode. Since this coupling to TO phonons is usually weak, this conclusion is surprising, especially for a low...

Generalising the matter coupling in massive gravity: a search for new interactions
Massive gravity theory introduced by de Rham, Gabadadze, Tolley (dRGT) is restricted by several uniqueness theorems that protect the form of the potential and kinetic terms, as well as the matter coupling. These restrictions arise from the requirement that the degrees of freedom match the expectation from Poincar\'e re...

Neural Activity of Heterogeneous Inhibitory Spiking Networks with Delay
We study a network of spiking neurons with heterogeneous excitabilities connected via inhibitory delayed pulses. For globally coupled systems the increase of the inhibitory coupling reduces the number of firing neurons by following a Winner Takes All mechanism. For sufficiently large transmission delay we observe the e...

Origin of Yukawa couplings for Higgs and leptoquarks
We propose a model in which the Yukawa couplings of Higgs doublets are related to the couplings of the chiral fermions to a scalar leptoquark triplet. This is due to their common origin via mixing with a vector-like family distinguished by a discrete $Z_5$ symmetry, under which only the three chiral families are neutra...
