Nested-GPT for variable-multiplicity parton showers: A case study in the resummation of non-global logarithms

We introduce Nested-GPT, a hierarchical autoregressive Transformer architecture for simulating the variable-multiplicity parton-shower histories. As a controlled benchmark, we study the leading-logarithmic resummation of non-global logarithms in the large-$N_c$ limit, utilizing a stochastic Monte Carlo dipole shower to generate reference training data. We systematically evaluate Nested-GPT against a Transformer flow-matching baseline. The flow-matching framework successfully parameterizes the joint distribution of emission kinematics at fixed multiplicity. Its phase-space representation, however, requires the final number of emissions to be specified externally rather than generated dynamically. Conversely, Nested-GPT strictly enforces the ordered Markovian branching structure, predicting emissions sequentially and dynamically evaluating a learned sequence-termination condition. We benchmark both approaches using gap fraction observables under two complementary training regimes: direct training on vetoed histories and inclusive training followed by an analysis-level veto. The resulting generated samples agree with the reference shower within statistical uncertainties for the observables considered. These results establish Nested-GPT as a physically consistent autoregressive surrogate for variable-multiplicity shower generator and motivate extensions to subleading-logarithmic resummation and finite-$N_c$ color evolution.

Three-Band Anderson Lattice Model Reveals Co-Evolution of Topological and Magnetic Phases Driven by Electron Correlation

Understanding the interplay of band topology, strong electron correlation, and magnetic order is the fundamental core bottleneck for realizing robust high-temperature quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE). Conventional two-band Anderson models are limited to paramagnetic Kondo topological insulators, failing to capture coupled topological-magnetic phase evolution relevant to the QAHE benchmark MnBi2Te4 family. We develop a minimal three-band Anderson lattice model incorporating Hubbard interaction, s-d exchange coupling, and a BHZ-like topological mechanism. Using the Kotliar-Ruckenstein slave-boson approach, we map correlation-driven phase transitions at filling v=2: increasing U drives a trivial-to-Kondo topological insulator transition, then activates the third band to mediate a paramagnetic topological insulator-to-ferromagnetic metal transition. The accompanying band reconstruction--fully spin-polarized d-orbitals sinking below the Fermi level, leaving itinerant p-orbitals to dominate low-energy physics--qualitatively matches published first-principles results for MnBi2Te4. In the strong-correlation regime, exchange coupling J stabilizes a Chern-Kondo insulator (C=1) and Weyl nodal-line semimetal. Critically, we reveal full d-orbital spin polarization renders the topological gap immune to correlation-induced narrowing, resolving the long-standing strong correlation-large gap incompatibility. Our results show excellent qualitative alignment with recent state-of-the-art QAHE experiments, providing a unified framework for correlated magnetic topological materials and new pathways to high-temperature QAHE.

Intrinsic Spin Filter Effect in a $d$-wave altermagnet KV$_2$Se$_2$O with Open Fermi Surface

Altermagnets offer a unique pathway to functional spintronics by combining vanishing magnetization with large spin splitting. Here, we demonstrate that the canonical d-wave altermagnet KV2Se2O can deliver giant tunneling magnetoresistance through orientation-dependent spin filtering. By analyzing the crystallographic spin segregation, we show that transport along specific crystallographic axes is nearly fully spin-polarized within the symmetry-protected ballistic channels. We implement this mechanism in a lattice-matched KV2Se2O/Bi2O2Se/KV2Se2O magnetic tunnel junction, which achieves a robust half-metallic transport regime. The symmetry-protected spectral gap in the parallel/anti-parallel configuration ensures a high tunneling magnetoresistance ratio, resulting in substantial tunneling magnetoresistance, robust thermally driven spin filtering, and spin Seebeck effect at room temperature. These findings provide a path of altermagnetic heterostructures as a high-performance platform for scalable, field-free, and thermally stable spin logic.

Can sub-GeV dark matter coherently scatter on the electrons in the Atom?

A novel detection of sub-GeV dark matter is proposed in the paper. The electron cloud is boosted by the dark matter and emits an electron when it is dragged back by the heavy nucleus, namely the coherent scattering of the electron cloud of the atom. The survey in the X-ray diffraction shows that the atomic form factors are much more complicate than the naive consideration. The results of the relativistic Hartree-Fock(RHF) method give non-trivial shapes of the atoms. The detailed calculation of the recoil of the electron cloud, the kinetics, the fiducial cross section and the corresponding calculation of detection rate are given analytically. The numerical results show that the limits of the RHF form factors are much stringent than the recoil of a single electron, almost 4 orders stronger, and also gives tight limitations comparing to the Migdal effect below about several hundred MeV. The physical picture and the corresponding results are promising and need further explorations.
