Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The variation of the warp factor could be much larger because the D3-brane tadpole found in F-theory on a Calabi-Yau 4-fold, which determines the maximum amount of background flux, can be as large as O(10^4) in known examples.

    “In principle, the variation of the warp factor could be much larger because the D3-brane tadpole found in F-theory on a Calabi-Yau 4-fold [40, 41], which determines the maximum amount of background flux, can be as large as O (10 4 ) in known examples.”

    From Gravitational memory and compact extra dimensions (2022) · cites this paper as [41]

    Section 2 (p. 12) relates the four-form flux to the Euler number of the eight-manifold and describes the resulting topological constraint; it also gives an equation for the warp factor. The paper does not state that a D3-brane tadpole in known F-theory examples reaches O(10^4), or quantify a correspondingly larger warp-factor variation. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
