von Neumann algebras have been playing an increasingly important role in the context of gauge theories and gravity. The crossed product presents a natural method for implementing constraints through commutation theorem, rendering it useful tool constructing gauge-invariant algebras. Type III algebra with its modular automorphism group is semifinite, which means that regulates divergences local quantum field theories. In this article, we find sufficient condition semifiniteness locally...

A bstract In holographic theories, the reflected entropy has been shown to be dual area of entanglement wedge cross section. We study same problem in random tensor networks demonstrating an equivalent duality. For a single we analyze important non-perturbative effects that smooth out discontinuity across Page phase transition. By summing over all such effects, obtain spectrum analytically, which agrees well with numerical studies. This motivates prescription for analytic continuation...

This paper discusses a heuristic solution procedure for combinatorial optimization problem that originates in designing signal constellations modems. The design is to place m signals two-dimensional space minimize the average error rate under specified noise conditions, using maximum-likelihood decoding scheme.

DNA is a universal language encrypted with biological instruction for life. In higher organisms, the genetic information preserved predominantly in an organized exon/intron structure. When gene expressed, exons are spliced together to form transcript protein synthesis.
