Active brownian particles and run-and-tumble particles: A comparative study
Active Brownian particles (ABPs) and Run-and-Tumble particles (RTPs) both self-propel at fixed speed v along a body-axis u that reorients either...

A Large Deviation Perspective on Ratio Observables in Reset Processes: Robustness of Rate Functions
We study large deviations of a ratio observable in discrete-time reset processes. The ratio takes the form of a current divided by the number of...

Orientifold Calabi-Yau threefolds with divisor involutions and string landscape
We establish an orientifold Calabi-Yau threefold database for h 1 , 1 ( X ) ≤ 6 by considering non-trivial ℤ 2 divisor exchange involutions, using a toric...
