Experimental observation of hyperbolic spacetime dynamics
arXiv:2606.09501v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding quantum dynamics in curved spacetime is a central challenge at the intersection of quantum mechanics and gravity. Anti-de-Sitter (AdS) spacetime plays a pivotal role in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence, which relates gravitational dynamics in the AdS bulk to a conformal field theory (CFT) living on its boundary. Despite its foundational importance, direct experimental access to dynamical quantum phenomena in Lorentzian...
Strange 'spacetime crystals' could give birth to tiny black holes
Strange 'spacetime crystals' could give birth to tiny black holes "Sometimes a tiny, seemingly insignificant cause is enough to trigger a huge and dramatic change." When we think about a black hole, we probably picture some vast cosmic titan, greedily consuming any matter unfortunate enough to fall within its gravitational influence. Thinking deeper, we probably imagine this ravenous cosmic beast forming from the explosive collapse of the core of a massive star.
Mathematics of Spacetime: A Guided Tour Through The Underlying Differential Topology and Differential Geometry
arXiv:2606.02616v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Background in General Relativity (e.g. black holes, wormholes, or spacetime models in general) is needed to comprehend more recent efforts around understanding quantum phenomena like entanglement (e.g. >>It from qubit>ER = EPR<<). The former in turn requires a lot of knowledge from differential topology and differential geometry. While this knowledge is available in very good mathematics textbooks, it is scattered i.e. quite a bunch of sources...
Quantifying Spacetime Integration across a Partition with Synergy
Announce Type: replace Abstract: In service to the mathematical underpinnings of the Information Integration Theory of Consciousness (IIT), we introduce four measures of integration based on the partial information decomposition framework. We compare our measures to current IIT practice in simple deterministic networks.
DAS-PINNs for high-dimensional partial differential equations: extending deep adaptive sampling to spacetime domains
Announce Type: new Abstract: Time-dependent high-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) with spatially localised and dynamically evolving solutions pose a fundamental challenge for physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), as uniform collocation sampling becomes increasingly ineffective in high-dimensional spatiotemporal domains. In this work, a deep adaptive sampling framework for PINNs is extended to the time-dependent setting by treating space and time as a unified domain...
The G\"odel Universe as a Superconductor
Announce Type: new Abstract: Material science and engineering have benefited from the use of geometric and topological tools. A material medium can mimic effective gravitational fields while spacetime metrics serve as geometric models of physical media. Albeit analog models of optical, acoustic, and viscous media in curved spacetimes are well established, none have yet captured the hallmark constitutive properties of superconductors.
Astronomers discover a 'lost world' of black hole mergers: 'It's the astronomical equivalent of uncovering an ancient civilization'
Astronomers discover a 'lost world' of black hole mergers: 'It's the astronomical equivalent of uncovering an ancient civilization' "Now, we have growing evidence that there are ways that the universe creates merging black holes in addition to those that come from massive binary stars." Astronomers have struck "black gold" — a treasure trove of black hole mergers. And the discovery was made by analyzing ripples in the very fabric of space and time, or spacetime, called gravitational waves.
Measuring gravitational waves in a humming universe with a coordinate-free approach
Gravitational waves are tiny ripples in spacetime. Their first direct detection in 2015 marked a revolutionary moment in astronomy. Today, we have a thorough understanding of signals that travel far from their sources through quiet, nearly empty space, such as those emitted when black holes merge.
Violating the 3rd law of black hole mechanics in vacuum gravity
June 3, 2026 feature Violating the 3rd law of black hole mechanics in vacuum gravity Ingrid Fadelli Author Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Black holes, regions in space where gravity is so strong that nothing can escape, have been widely studied over the past decades, due to their unique and intriguing properties. Einstein's theory of general relativity predicts that black holes obey a set of rules, known as the laws of black hole mechanics. These rules somewhat...
