We study physical (near-kernel of constraints) states of 4-d Euclidean loop quantum gravity in Smolin's weak coupling limit on the complete graph $K_5$ using variational Monte Carlo with neural networ…
We investigate the role of causality in the generalized EPRL spinfoam model introduced by Kaminski, Kisielowski, and Lewandowski (EPRL-KKL). We first propose a definition of causal structure on an arb…
Building on the characterisation in [C. D. Hill, J. Lewandowski and P. Nurowski, Indiana Univ. Math. J. 57 (2008), 3131--3176] of 4-dimensional Lorentzian metrics adapted to an optical structure and s…
We introduce jerky chiral active Brownian particles (jcABPs), a generalization of conventional chiral active Brownian particles (cABPs) subjected to jerk, the time derivative of acceleration, and anal…
Jerky active particles are Brownian self-propelled particles which are dominated by ``jerk'', the change in acceleration. They represent a generalization of inertial active particles. In order to desc…
In earlier companion papers, we showed that non-singular primordial black holes (PBHs) could account for all the dark matter (DM) over a significantly wider mass range compared to Schwarzschild PBHs. …
We investigate the linear static response of three covariant loop quantum black holes, namely, the two models proposed by Zhang, Lewandowski, Ma, and Yang (ZLMY) and the Alonso-Bardaji, Brizuela, and …
Jerk plays a pivotal role in the thrilling experience of many amusemement park rides. In addition to exploring the physical aspect of jerks, we tackle the empirical observation of an attractive force …
Close to the yielding transition, amorphous solids exhibit a jerky dynamics characterized by plastic avalanches. The statistics of these avalanches have been measured experimentally and numerically us…
The influence of the surface pre-deformation on jerky flow caused by the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) effect was investigated using flat tensile specimens of an Al-Mg alloy. Although jerky flow represe…
We consider three different approaches (by Ashtekar, Bonga and Kesavan; Hoque and Virmani; and Dobkowski-Ry\l{}ko and Lewandowski) to investigate gravitational radiation produced by time changing matt…
Materials are often heterogeneous at various length scales, with variations in grain structure, defects, and composition which has a strong influence on the emergent macroscopic plastic behavior. In p…
A recent development involves an intriguing model of a quantum-corrected black hole, established through the application of the quantum Oppenheimer-Snyder model within loop quantum cosmology [Lewandow…
Longevity of materials, especially alloys, is crucial for enhancing the sustainability and efficiency of various applications, including gas turbines. Jerky flow, also known as dynamic strain aging ef…
Recently, a black hole model in loop quantum gravity has been proposed by Lewandowski, Ma, Yang and Zhang (Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{130}, 101501 (2023)). The metric tensor of the quantum black hole (Q…
We consider the quantization of gravity as an SL(2,C) gauge theory in terms of Ashtekar's selfdual variables and reality conditions for the spatial metric (RCI) and its evolution (RCII). We start from…
Recent observations of jerky flow in high-entropy alloys (HEA) revealed a high role of self-organization of dislocations in their plasticity. The present work reports first results of investigation of…
Barkhausen noise in disordered ferromagnets is typically understood to originate primarily from jerky field-driven motion of domain walls. We study the magnetization reversal process in disordered per…
We explore air invasion in an initially water-filled dead-end compliant microchannel containing a constriction. The phenomenon is driven by the pervaporation of the liquid present in the channel throu…
Graphene is well known for its extraordinary mechanical properties combining brittleness and ductility. While most mechanical studies of graphene focused on the strength and brittle fracture behavior,…
