Our papers are the official record of our discoveries. They allow others to build on and apply our work. Each paper is the result of many months of research, so we make a special effort to make them clear, beautiful and inspirational, and publish them in leading journals.

Sub. to Physical Review LettersMicrostructural coarsening
Rapid temperature cycling from one extreme to another affects the rate at which the mean particle size in solid or liquid solutions changes.
AM
BLDS Physical Review LettersDeep layered machines
The ability of deep neural networks to generalize can be unraveled using path integral methods to compute their typical Boolean functions.

YL Physical Review LettersTunnelling interpreted
In quantum tunnelling, a particle tunnels through a barrier that it classically could not surmount.

MVMBMKVVIW Physical Review LettersPhotonic Maxwell’s demon
By analogy with Maxwell’s original thought experiment, the setup uses energy extracted from a thermal system.
Easily repairable networks
When networks come under attack, a repairable architecture is superior to, and globally distinct from, an architecture that is robust.
Ultralight fractal structures from hollow tubes
A material’s architecture can be controlled over an ever increasing set of length scales.
