Researchers at Stanford and Boston University construct two dimensional CFTs with the right properties to be holographic duals of three-dimensional supergravity. They spoke to Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical about their Publisher’s Pick Who are you? … Read More ›
The JPhys series turned 50 this year, so we invited a selection of the best young researchers to contribute to our emerging leaders program. Read our interview with Ruggero Cortini here.
In this paper Jeffrey Kuan uses symmetry of quantum groups to prove duality for the two-component asymmetric simple exclusion process. He spoke to Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical as about his Publisher’s Pick Who are you? Jeffrey Kuan,… Read More ›
It goes without saying that finding answers to questions raised by the Standard Model and General Relativity remains a huge part of theoretical physics. Recent developments in bimetric theory, a topical review published in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical is the second most most highly cited article in the journal from 2016. Here we talk to one of the authors of the review, Angnis Schmidt-May, from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, to discover why this field is so active and what discoveries she’d like to see.
The interface between quantum information and thermodynamics is currently a very active area. The topical review The role of quantum information in thermodynamics — a topical review, published in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical is the most highly cited 2016 article in the journal. Here we talk to one of the authors of the review, Marcus Huber, from Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information Vienna, to discover why this field is so active and where he thinks it’s heading.
We talk to Ralph Kenna and Bertrand Berche about their paper on Universal finite-size scaling for percolation theory in high dimensions published in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical. They talk about the importance of percolation in mathematics and… Read More ›
“I am hoping that there will be an even higher level of cooperation and collaboration amongst researchers and clinicians in this field, leading to larger, multi-centre clinical trials of plasma in wound decontamination/healing and cancer therapy.”
We talk to Stephen L Adler to find out what motivated his recent J.Phys.A paper.
Lisa Glaser discusses phase transitions, non-commutative geometry and how sitting in on a lecture can bring about new ideas as she talks about her recent paper in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical. Who are you? I’m Lisa Glaser,… Read More ›
In their recently published Emerging Talents paper in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical Stijn van Tongeren and Ben Hoare study Jordanian deformations of AdS5 and supergravity. Stijn has taken the time to answer some questions from JPhys+ to tell… Read More ›

We talk to Pawel Caputa and Marek Rams to find out what motivated their recent J.Phys.A paper on the time evolution of entanglement measures.
Researchers from California develop an efficient, ergodic generation method for off-lattice walks with excluded volume and analyze the effects of thickness on shape and knotting. They spoke to JPhys+ about their recent publication in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and… Read More ›
Recently Journal of Physics A published a special issue titled “an integrability primer for gauge-gravity duality”which grew out of a GATIS Young Researchers Integrability School held at Durham University in July 2015. The issue was made up of 6 topical reviews based on the lectures delivered at the summer school, aiming to provide a pedagogical introduction to integrability, particularly aspects relevant to the AdS/CFT correspondence.
