We study open B-model representing D-branes on 2-cycles of local Calabi--Yau geometries. To this end we work out a reduction technique linking D-branes partition functions and multi-matrix models in ...

Abstract: This article presents a novel phased array antenna calibration method. Unlike conventional phased array calibration methods equipped with only one probe antenna in the far-field setup, ...

A matrix model for type 0 strings is proposed. It consists in making a non-supersymmetric orbifold projection in the Yang-Mills theory and identifying the infrared configurations of the system at ...

Australian actor Martin Grelis, who appeared in the 1999 first installment of The Matrix film series, has died at the age of 57. “Martin was a bright spark who lit up every room he was in—a talented ...

Abstract: Matrix computation is ubiquitous in modern scientific and engineering fields. Due to the high computational complexity in conventional digital computers, matrix computation represents a ...

Michigan bluegrass phenom Billy Strings and his band stopped by NPR’s Tiny Desk for a performance more than a decade in the making. Backed by his band — Alex Hargreaves on fiddle, backing vocalist ...
