Beyond the Holographic Entropy Cone via Cycle Flows

He, Temple; Hernández-Cuenca, Sergio; Keeler, Cynthia (Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2024-10-12)

Motivated by bit threads, we introduce a new prescription for computing entropy vectors outside the holographic entropy cone. By utilizing cycle flows on directed graphs, we show that the maximum cycle flow associated to ...
Parisi Formula for Balanced Potts Spin Glass

Bates, Erik; Sohn, Youngtak (Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2024-09-13)

The Potts spin glass is a generalization of the Sherrington–Kirkpatrick (SK) model that allows for spins to take more than two values. Based on a novel synchronization mechanism, Panchenko (Ann Probab 46(2):829–864, 2018) ...
