Checkerboard CFT by Mikhail Alfimov, Gwenaël Ferrando, Vladimir Kazakov, Enrico Olivucci

“…We prove that the spectrum of the theory receives corrections only at even orders in the loop expansion and we conjecture such a modification of Checkerboard CFT where quantum corrections occur only with a given periodicity in the loop order.…”

Cryptographic Censorship by Netta Engelhardt, Åsmund Folkestad, Adam Levine, Evita Verheijden, Lisa Yang

“…Abstract We formulate and take two large strides towards proving a quantum version of the weak cosmic censorship conjecture. We first prove “Cryptographic Censorship”: a theorem showing that when the time evolution operator of a holographic CFT is approximately pseudorandom (or Haar random) on some code subspace, then there must be an event horizon in the corresponding bulk dual. …”

Language writ large: LLMs, ChatGPT, meaning, and understanding by Stevan Harnad

“…These convergent biases are related to (1) the parasitism of indirect verbal grounding on direct sensorimotor grounding, (2) the circularity of verbal definition, (3) the “mirroring” of language production and comprehension, (4) iconicity in propositions at LLM scale, (5) computational counterparts of human “categorical perception” in category learning by neural nets, and perhaps also (6) a conjecture by Chomsky about the laws of thought. The exposition will be in the form of a dialogue with ChatGPT-4.…”

Biological arrow of time: emergence of tangled information hierarchies and self-modelling dynamics by Mikhail Prokopenko, Paul C W Davies, Michael Harré, Marcus G Heisler, Zdenka Kuncic, Geraint F Lewis, Ori Livson, Joseph T Lizier, Fernando E Rosas

“…These emergent information patterns can then be encoded within the organism’s components, leading to self-modelling ‘tangled hierarchies’. Our main conjecture is that when macro-scale patterns are encoded within micro-scale components, it creates fundamental tensions (computational inconsistencies) between what is encodable at a particular evolutionary stage and what is potentially realisable in the environment. …”

A Numerical Investigation of the Precipitation over Lake Victoria Basin Using a Coupled Atmosphere-Lake Limited-Area Model by Xia Sun, Lian Xie, Fredrick H. M. Semazzi, Bin Liu

“…Further exploration of vertical velocity, surface divergence pattern, and maximum radar reflectivity confirms such conjecture. The time-longitude analysis of maximum radar reflectivity over the entire lake also shows a noticeable pattern of dominating westward propagation.…”

Generalized volume-complexity for Lovelock black holes by Monireh Emami, Shahrokh Parvizi

“…Abstract We study the time dependence of the generalized complexity of Lovelock black holes using the “complexity = anything” conjecture, which expands upon the notion of “complexity = volume” and generates a large class of observables. …”

Toward a Classification of Mixed-State Topological Orders in Two Dimensions by Tyler D. Ellison, Meng Cheng

“…Given these two mechanisms, we conjecture that mixed-state topological orders are classified by premodular anyon theories, i.e., those for which the braiding relations may be degenerate.…”

Magnetic Reconnection between a Solar Jet and a Filament Channel by Garima Karki, Brigitte Schmieder, Pooja Devi, Ramesh Chandra, Nicolas Labrosse, Reetika Joshi, Bernard Gelly

“…They correspond to flows around 140 km s ^−1 . In conclusion we conjecture that these flows correspond to some interchange of magnetic field lines between the filament channel and the jets leading to cool plasmoid ejections or reconnection jets perpendicularly to the jet trajectory.…”

Genomic Copy Number Variation Affecting Genes Involved in the Cell Cycle Pathway: Implications for Somatic Mosaicism by Ivan Y. Iourov, Svetlana G. Vorsanova, Maria A. Zelenova, Sergei A. Korostelev, Yuri B. Yurov

“…However, origins and mechanisms of somatic mosaicism remain a matter of conjecture. Recently, it has been hypothesized that zygotic genomic variation naturally occurring in humans is likely to predispose to nonheritable genetic changes (aneuploidy) acquired during the lifetime through affecting cell cycle regulation, genome stability maintenance, and related pathways. …”

Hervé Lanotte, Investissements publicitaires et choix contractuels d’approvisionnement : les clés d’une gouvernance « coopérative » dans la filière des vins de Champagne by Hervé Lanotte

“…Without requiring explicit commitments to, or advertising cost sharing with the merchant on the part of the wine grower, this strategy makes possible a collective inter-professional dynamic relationship that underpins vertical cooperation. To justify this conjecture, we propose a diachronic reading of the way this local and cooperative governance arose. …”

Identification of the Allergenic Ingredients in Reduning Injection by Ultrafiltration and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography by Fang Wang, Cun-yu Li, Yun-feng Zheng, Hong-yang Li, Wei Xiao, Guo-ping Peng

“…Our results suggest that ultrafiltration could significantly reduce the sensitization of Reduning injection, which is likely due to the decrease of Tween-80. We also conjectured that the form of chlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenin acid within the complex solution mixture may also affect the sensitizing effect.…”
