Convergent momentum-space OPE and bootstrap equations in conformal field theory

General principles of quantum field theory imply that there exists an operator product expansion (OPE) for Wightman functions in Minkowski momentum space that converges for arbitrary kinematics. This convergence is guaranteed to hold in the sense of a dist ...

Fourier Sampling in Signal Processing and Numerical Linear Algebra

Amir Zandieh

This thesis focuses on developing efficient algorithmic tools for processing large datasets. In many modern data analysis tasks, the sheer volume of available datasets far outstrips our abilities to process them. This scenario commonly arises in tasks incl ...

The large charge expansion and AdS/CFT

Jann Zosso, Anton Reyes De La Fuente

The scaling dimensions of charged operators in conformal field theory were recently computed in a large charge expansion. We verify this expansion in a dual AdS model. Specifically, we numerically construct solitonic boson star solutions of Einstein-Maxwel ...

Two-dimensional O(n) models and logarithmic CFTs

Bernardo Zan, Victor Gorbenko

We study O(n)-symmetric two-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) for a continuous range of n below two. These CFTs describe the fixed point behavior of self-avoiding loops. There is a pair of known fixed points connected by an RG flow. When n is equ ...

Superfluids, vortices and spinning charged operators in 4d CFT

Gabriel Francisco Cuomo

We include vortices in the superfluid EFT for four dimensional CFTs at large global charge. Using the state-operator correspondence, vortices are mapped to charged operators with large spin and we compute their scaling dimensions. Different regimes are ide ...

Harmonic analysis and mean field theory

Denis Karateev

We review some aspects of harmonic analysis for the Euclidean conformal group, including conformally-invariant pairings, the Plancherel measure, and the shadow transform. We introduce two efficient methods for computing these quantities: one based on weigh ...

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

Alessandro Vichi, João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes

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 ...

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 ...

Flux Tube S-Matrix Bootstrap

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Aditya Hebbar, Andrea Guerrieri

We bootstrap the S matrix of massless particles in unitary, relativistic two dimensional quantum field theories. We find that the low energy expansion of such S matrices is strongly constrained by the existence of a UV completion. In the context of flux tu ...

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

Simone Deparis, Luca Pegolotti, Antonio Iubatti

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 ...

Scalar-fermion analytic bootstrap in 4D

Denis Karateev

In this work we discuss an analytic bootstrap approach [1, 2] in the context of spinning 4D conformal blocks [3, 4]. As an example we study the simplest spinning case, the scalar-fermion correlator. We find that to every pair of primary scalar phi and ferm ...
