Non-invertible Gauss law and axions

In axion-Maxwell theory at the minimal axion-photon coupling, we find non-invertible 0- and 1-form global symmetries arising from the naive shift and center symmetries. Since the Gauss law is anomalous, there is no conserved, gauge-invariant, and quantized electric charge. Rather, using half higher gauging, we find a non-invertible Gauss law associated with a non-invertible 1-form global symmetry, which is related to the Page charge. These symmetries act invertibly on the axion field and Wilson line, but non-invertibly on the monopoles and axion strings, leading to selection rules related to the Witten effect. We also derive various crossing relations between the defects. The non-invertible 0- and 1-form global symmetries mix with other invertible symmetries in a way reminiscent of a higher-group symmetry. Using this non-invertible higher symmetry structure, we derive universal inequalities on the energy scales where different infrared symmetries emerge in any renormalization group flow to the axion-Maxwell theory. Finally, we discuss implications for the Weak Gravity Conjecture and the Completeness Hypothesis in quantum gravity.

Boundary terms and conserved charges in higher-derivative gauged supergravity

We address some issues in higher-derivative gauged supergravity with Chern-Simons terms, focusing on the five-dimensional case. We discuss the variational problem with Dirichlet boundary conditions as well as holographic renormalization in asymptotically locally AdS spacetimes, and derive the corresponding boundary terms. We then employ Wald’s formalism in order to define conserved charges associated to local symmetries (diffeomorphisms and U(1) gauge transformations), taking into account the effect of generic gauge Chern-Simons terms. We prove that the first law of black hole mechanics and the quantum statistical relation hold in this setup. Chern-Simons terms also lead us to distinguish between Noether charges and Page (or Komar) charges which satisfy the Gauss law. We make use of the latter to compute corrections to the angular momentum and electric charge of the supersymmetric black hole in AdS5 from its corrected near-horizon geometry. This also allows us to derive the microcanonical form of the entropy as a function of the conserved charges relying entirely on the near-horizon geometry. Finally, we comment on four-derivative gauged supergravity in four dimensions, showing that field redefinitions permit to simplify the action at linear order in the corrections, so that the equations of motion are those of the two-derivative theory.

The Comparison of Periostin Levels in Gingival Crevicular Fluid among Patients with Endometrial Cancer and Chronic Periodontitis

Background: Serum periostin in cancer patients and chronic periodontitis (CP) is the lowest and could be linked to the association between CP and endometrial cancer (EC). Periostin is a matricellular protein secreted by fibroblasts associated with cancer and is also secreted in chronic inflammatory conditions such as CP. Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the GCF periostin level among CP, EC, and healthy people and the evaluation of the plausible role of periostin in this association. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 80 participants including 20 people with both EC and CP (EC-CP), 20 only CP cases (H-CP), 20 only EC cases (EC-H), and 20 healthy people (H-H). Then, the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) periostin levels for all the participants were measured through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Finally, the data were analyzed using Stata software version 11. Results: The mean value of periostin levels was significantly different between groups (p &lt; 0.001) and the lowest and highest mean was observed in EC-CP and H-H groups, respectively. The mean of GCF periostin before treatment in the EC-CP group was 2.14 which was lower than that after treatment; however, this difference was not significant (p = 0.086). Also, the mean of GCF periostin in the H-CP group was 3.96 before non-surgical treatment and after treatment it significantly raised to 6.79 (p = 0.049). Conclusions: Periostin is a potential biomarker for CP diagnosis in EC patients and also can be used to prevent CP. However, further studies are required to confirm this role.

Supergravity p -branes with scalar charge

Standard dilatonic supergravity $p$-branes have scalar charges that are not independent parameters, but are determined by the brane tension and Page charges. This feature can be traced to the no-hair theorem in the four-dimensional Einstein-scalar gravity, implying that more general solutions with independent scalar charges can have naked singularities. Since singular branes are also of interest as tentative classical counterparts of unstable tachyonic branes and/or brane-antibrane systems, it is worth investigating branes with independent scalar charges in more detail. Here we study singular branes associated with the Fisher-Janis-Newman-Winicour solution of four-dimensional gravity. In the case of codimension three, we also construct singular branes endowed with a Zipoy-Voorhees-type oblateness parameter. It is expected that such branes will not be supersymmetric in the string theory. We demonstrate this in the special case of NS5-branes of type II theory. We analyze geodesics and test scalar perturbations of new solutions focusing on possible quantum healing of classical singularities.

Comments on non-Abelian T-duals and their holographic description

We present three different Type IIB AdS4 Supergravity solutions, derived using the electrostatic-like problem formalism which preserves 8 Poincaré Supercharges. Two of these solutions correspond to the Abelian and non-Abelian T-duals of a Type IIA background, obtained from the dimensional reduction of 11D AdS×4S7 Supergravity. The third solution is a new background with some special properties. We compute the Page charges in each case, and provide brane set-up descriptions of the geometries. Also, we argue that the non-Abelian T-dual can be understood as a zoom-in of a more general background with a well defined holographic dual.

Electrostatic description of five-dimensional SCFTs

In this paper we discuss an infinite class of AdS6 backgrounds in Type IIB supergravity dual to five dimensional SCFTs whose low energy description is in terms of linear quiver theories. The quantisation of the Page charges imposes that each solution is determined once a convex, piece-wise linear function is specified. In the dual field theory, we interpret this function as encoding the ranks of colour and flavour groups in the associated quiver. We check our proposal with several examples and provide general expressions for the holographic central charge and the Wilson loop VEV. Some solutions outside this general class, with less clear quiver interpretation, are also discussed.

A Century of Peer-reviewed Australian Zoological Research: Prominent Authors, Themes and Usage of Papers from Australian Zoologist

ABSTRACT The peer-reviewed Australian Zoologist, first published in 1914, is Australia’s longest-lived zoological journal. Its publication history shows changes in the zoological topics covered over the last 100 years, including the animals studied, characteristics of the authors and readership, and the influence of the databases used to study the journal on information retrieval. Searches in different databases retrieved different numbers of papers; Scopus (including secondary documents not in the database but cited by documents that are in the database) was the most comprehensive. Although authors from 22 countries contributed papers over the history of the Australian Zoologist, over 90% of authors were Australian. Most international authors came from the USA, the UK, Canada and New Zealand. Approximately two-thirds of authors citing Australian Zoologist were Australian-based, but there were still 10 or more authors from each of thirty-four other countries citing Australian Zoologist: while regional, the journal has an international profile. Highly cited papers in Australian Zoologist had high mean Scopus percentile ranks (20th century 83.9, 21st century 73.7), indicating that in comparison to their fields globally, these papers are used well above average. Considering all papers published in Australian Zoologist, over time the proportion of papers in the categories ‘Biodiversity &amp; Conservation’ and ‘Environmental Sciences &amp; Ecology’ rose significantly, reflecting the increased research in these areas. Between 2013 and 2019, when relevant metrics are available in Scopus, Australian Zoologist declined in no metric measured while improving significantly in CiteScore, Highest Percentile, and % Cited, indicating increasing references to Australian Zoologist papers by other peer-reviewed publications. Between 2010 and 2019, 2.1% of Australian Zoologist papers were ranked within the top 10% in their fields globally, based on citation impact. Authors considering publishing in Australian Zoologist should note that longer papers are acceptable, colour imagery (including photographs) is encouraged, the journal is visible in major databases, it is cited internationally and there are no page charges.

Journal of the Society for Information Display

Jiun-Haw Lee Editor in Chief Distinguished Papers, Best of Display Week 2021 Fifteen papers won the title of Distinguished Papers of Display Week 2021 and are published in the May 2021 issue of the Journal of the Society for Information Display (JSID). Congratulations!! The program committee of SID Display Week nominated these papers, which cover different research topics, including active-matrix devices, liquid crystal technology, flexible displays, display electronics, display systems, display measurements, micro light-emitting diode (microLED), and augmented reality (AR) displays. After strict and expedited reviews, JSID has published these high-quality papers before Display Week 2021 (May 17–21). Note that these papers will remain open access until the end of 2021. They are available at https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/toc/10.1002/(ISSN)1938-3657.DW21. The June 2021 issue of JSID contains two invited papers. The first paper is about microLED technologies by Sony Corporation, which is the pioneer in this field that demonstrated the prototype of microLED in 2012 (called crystalLED at that time). Technology details were disclosed in this manuscript, which provided clear illustrations of LED devices, pixel design, driving innovations, and assembly of this emerging display technology. The second invited paper is a review that compares three major display technologies: liquid crystal display (LCD) lit by miniLED backlight, organic light-emitting diode (OLED), and microLED. Note that the same group (Shin-Tson Wu's research group at the University of Central Florida) had published a similar review paper entitled, “Prospects and challenges of mini-LED and micro-LED displays,” in the July 2019 issue of JSID, which has attracted 41 citations thus far. The 2021 paper provides updates on the progress during the past two years, broadens the topic focus, provides an overview comparison from different display performances, and provides insight on future perspectives. 9.4-inch 228-ppi flexible micro-LED display | Seok-Lyul Lee, et al. | DOI: 10.1002/jsid.1022 This flexible microLED display was fabricated on a low-temperature polysilicon thin-film transistor (LTPS-TFT) backplane, which achieved a contrast ratio over 1,000,000:1 because of the self-emission characteristics of microLED. Additionally, the microLED display's device structure and process flow are disclosed. No degradation was observed after bending tests were conducted (1,000 times with a bending radius of 40 mm). This display also exhibited higher brightness and less color shift than OLED displays when observed from oblique angles. In other words, this microLED display had better viewing-angle performances compared to OLED display. Prospects and challenges of mini-LED, OLED, and microLED displays | En-Lin Hsiang, et al. | DOI: 10.1002/jsid.1058 LCD with mini-LED backlight, OLED, or microLED: who wins? It is an interesting question. This invited review paper attempts to provide an apples-to-apples comparison based on recent products and technologies from nine display performances, including ambient contrast ratio (ACR), motion picture response time (MPRT), viewing angle, color gamut, resolution, power consumption, cost, lifetime, and flexibility. Each display has its own advantages and disadvantages. For the current stage, flexibility, lifetime, and cost are the main issues for miniLED/LCD, OLED, and microLED, respectively.

Journal of the Society for Information Display

Jiun-Haw Lee Editor in Chief In the May issue, JSID will publish a special issue of (part of) “Expanded Distinguished Papers of Display Week 2021.“ Those papers were nominated by the Program Committee of SID Display Week and passed the expedited review, which was somewhat stricter than normal because of time constraints. Those papers will remain open access until the end of 2021. When inviting the authors of the SID-sponsored conference to expand their results to a full paper and submit to JSID, sometimes they ask: “May I use the same context (or figures) of the SID-sponsored conference proceeding in the expanded paper?” In the Editorial published in April, we clarified this issue of novelty and plagiarism from different viewpoints: legally speaking, the author, and the journal. Take “Expanded Distinguished Papers of Display Week“ as an example. These abstracts are nominated by the Program Committee of SID Display Week with a quick review and limited content (within 4 pages). Although the results are interesting, the abstracts sometimes cannot contain all the information that is required for a full paper (typically >6 pages) published in JSID. When preparing the manuscript of JSID, the authors are allowed to use part of or all of the content in the abstracts submitted to SID Display Week by the same authors. However, it cannot apply to the case for expanding the conference papers sponsored by other societies. Evaluation and formulation of the sense of social telepresence in video-mediated communication systems: Contribution of eye contact to enhancing social telepresence | Shinji Kimura, et al. | DOI: 10.1002/jsid.976 There is a strong demand for online meetings, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared to face-to-face communication, the user experience for existing video-mediated communication (VMC) is still not satisfactory, unfortunately, even though we can use high-resolution display, together with high-speed internet. To create the “real” feeling of face-to-face communications, especially in one-on-one situations, the authors pointed out two important human factors: “eye contact” and “life-size image.” A prototype of the VMC system was demonstrated with a large-sized transparent organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display and a camera behind the scenes. Using a large display to achieve a life-sized image is straightforward. A camera behind the transparent display was employed to align the eye gaze with the image and create the feeling of “eye contact.” Early defect identification for micro light-emitting diode displays via photoluminescent and cathodoluminescent imaging | Keith Behrman, et al. | DOI: 10.1002/jsid.985 Micro light-emitting diodes (μ-LEDs) are an emerging display technology that has attracted lots of attention for different applications, such as augmented reality, small-sized displays (∼2 inches), and huge displays (more than 100 inches). In such a display, each LED is driven independently for electroluminescence (EL) emission. However, it is not easy to achieve high process yield for the millions of pixels in one display. Hence, online detection is required during manufacture. In this paper, the authors compare two different measurement methods, photoluminescence (PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL), with EL results. It was found that PL is not a satisfactory tool to reveal the defects. On the other hand, CL images can be accurate, up to ∼70%, when mapping to an EL image. Different defect modes during the process flow were also analyzed. JSID is published monthly by Wiley.

Uplifting dyonic AdS4 black holes on seven-dimensional Sasaki-Einstein manifolds

We revisit non-rotating, dyonically charged, and supersymmetric AdS4 black holes, which are solutions of mathcal{N} = 2 gauged supergravity with vector- and hyper-multiplets. Uplifting the near horizon solutions to D = 11 supergravity on seven-dimensional Sasaki-Einstein manifolds, we show that dyonic AdS4 black holes correspond to AdS2 solutions with electric and magnetic baryonic fluxes in D = 11 supergravity. We identify the off-shell AdS4 black hole solutions with parameters of D = 11 AdS2 solutions without imposing the equations of motion. We calculate the entropy of dyonic black holes, carefully analyzing the Page charge quantization conditions.
