Thermal CFTs in momentum space

Andrea Manenti

We study some aspects of conformal field theories at finite temperature in momentum space. We provide a formula for the Fourier transform of a thermal conformal block and study its analytic properties. In particular we show that the Fourier transform vanis ...

Rapid Analysis of Arbitrary-Shaped Conformal Beam-Scanning Arrays

Anja Skrivervik, Denys Nikolayev

Conformal antenna arrays are able to fit seamlessly on curved 3D-shaped surfaces, which are found ubiquitously on vehicles, aircraft, a human body, etc. In addition, conformal structures can overcome the scan loss limitations of conventional planar arrays. ...

The conformal bootstrap: Theory, numerical techniques, and applications

Alessandro Vichi

Conformal field theories have been long known to describe the fascinating universal physics of scale invariant critical points. They describe continuous phase transitions in fluids, magnets, and numerous other materials, while at the same time sit at the h ...

Charting the space of 3D CFTs with a continuous global symmetry

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Alessandro Vichi

We study correlation functions of a conserved spin-1 current J in three dimensional Conformal Field Theories (CFTs). We investigate the constraints imposed by permutation symmetry and current conservation on the form of three point functions and the four p ...

Spinning operators and defects in conformal field theory

Marco Meineri

We study the kinematics of correlation functions of local and extended operators in a conformal field theory. We present a new method for constructing the tensor structures associated to primary operators in an arbitrary bosonic representation of the Loren ...

Fermion conformal bootstrap in 4d

Alessandro Vichi, Denis Karateev

We apply numerical conformal bootstrap techniques to the four-point function of a Weyl spinor in 4d non-supersymmetric CFTs. We find universal bounds on operator dimensions and OPE coefficients, including bounds on operators in mixed symmetry representatio ...

Studies in strongly coupled quantum field theories and renormalization group flows

Bernardo Zan

This thesis presents studies in strongly coupled Renormalization Group (RG) flows. In the first part, we analyze the subject of non-local Conformal Field Theories (CFTs), arising as continuous phase transitions of statistical models with long-range interac ...

Coupling non-conforming discretizations of PDEs by spectral approximation of the Lagrange multiplier space

Simone Deparis, Luca Pegolotti

This work focuses on the development of a non-conforming method for the coupling of PDEs based on weakly imposed transmission conditions: the continuity of the global solution is enforced by a finite number of Lagrange multipliers defined over the interfac ...

Momentum-space conformal blocks on the light cone

Marc Gillioz

We study the momentum-space 4-point correlation function of identical scalar operators in conformal field theory. Working specifically with null momenta, we show that its imaginary part admits an expansion in conformal blocks. The blocks are polynomials in ...

R-current three-point functions in 4d N=1 superconformal theories

Alessandro Vichi, Andrea Manenti

In 4d N = 1 superconformal field theories (SCFTs) the R-symmetry current, the stress-energy tensor, and the supersymmetry currents are grouped into a single object, the Ferrara-Zumino multiplet. In this work we study the most general form of three-point fu ...

Scale anomalies, states, and rates in conformal field theory

Marc Gillioz

This paper presents two methods to compute scale anomaly coefficients in conformal field theories (CFTs), such as the c anomaly in four dimensions, in terms of the CFT data. We first use Euclidean position space to show that the anomaly coefficient of a fo ...
