Wess–Zumino coupling of the compactified M2-brane forces its monopole 0-form and winding 1-form symmetries into a 2-group whose Postnikov class is the mixed quantized flux.
The paper develops a descriptive framework in which scientific reward in physics is understood as transformations of the Polydoxon, the structured set of viable theories, with reward scaling by the transformation's scope, centrality, depth, and future leverage.
Generalizing entropy in the Jacobson framework produces modified gravity that yields a nonsingular de Sitter-like early universe and late-time dynamics equivalent to loop quantum cosmology at leading order.
A van der Waals-inspired modification to general relativity renders the gravitational coupling dynamical, providing a mechanism to avoid Big Bang and black hole singularities.
