Matrix theory reloaded: a BPS road to holography by Chris D. A. Blair, Johannes Lahnsteiner, Niels A. Obers, Ziqi Yan

“…Uplifted to M-theory, we are led to a unified framework where each BPS decoupling limit corresponds to a Discrete Light Cone Quantisation (DLCQ). We conjecture that a DLCQ n /DLCQ m correspondence, with m > n, captures the notion of holography in string theory. …”

The crane radar: Development and deployment of an operational eco-digital twin by K. De Koning

“…By showing an example of the crane radar, a real-time digital twin of the common crane (Grus grus) migration, this paper illustrates what digital twins could look like in ecology, and which challenges modellers face towards actual deployment of their digital twin in an operational environment.The most important challenges identified here are: ex ante quality and error control of the input data; accounting for time lags between observations and data availability; harmonising the updating frequencies and temporal resolutions of models and data; developing robust model/software code to keep digital twins alive; the necessity of learning new skills for ecological modellers; and effectively communicating digital twin outputs to stakeholders. A real quantitative evaluation of the contribution of the crane radar to operational decision making is, however, still missing.…”
