Lorentzian CFT 3-point functions in momentum space

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
In a conformal field theory, two and three-point functions of scalar operators and conserved currents are completely determined, up to constants, by conformal invariance.

On the light-ray algebra in conformal field theories

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We analyze the commutation relations of light-ray operators in conformal field theories. We first establish the algebra of light-ray operators built out of higher spin currents in free CFTs and find explicit expressions for the corresponding structure ...

Spinon bases, Yangian symmetry and fermionic representations of Virasoro characters in conformal field theory [PDF]

, 1994
We study the description of the SU (2), level k = 1, Wess-Zumino-Witten conformal field theory in terms of the modes of the spin- 1 2 affine primary field φ α .

Hecke relations among 2d fermionic RCFTs

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Recently, Harvey and Wu proposed a suitable Hecke operator for vector-valued SL(2, ℤ) modular forms to connect the characters of different 2d rational conformal field theories (RCFTs).

Asymptotic symmetries of three-dimensional higher-spin gravity: the metric approach [PDF]

, 2015
The asymptotic structure of three-dimensional higher-spin anti-de Sitter gravity is analyzed in the metric approach, in which the fields are described by completely symmetric tensors and the dynamics is determined by the standard Einstein-Fronsdal action

Higher-U(2,2)-spin fields and higher-dimensional W-gravities: quantum AdS space and radiation phenomena [PDF]

, 2001
A physical and geometrical interpretation of previously introduced tensor operator algebras of U(2,2) in terms of algebras of higher-conformal-spin quantum fields on the anti-de Sitter space AdS_5 is provided. These are higher-dimensional W-like algebras

Conformal theory of gravitation and cosmology

, 2020
The postulate of universal local Weyl scaling (conformal) symmetry modifies both general relativity and the Higgs scalar field model. Conformal gravity (CG) has recently been fitted to rotation data for 138 galaxies.

A Test of the AdS/CFT Duality on the Coulomb Branch [PDF]

, 2000
We consider the N=4 SU(N) Super Yang Mills theory on the Coulomb branch with gauge symmetry broken to S(U(N_1) x U(N_2)). By integrating the W particles, the effective action near the IR SU(N_i) conformal fixed points is seen to be a deformation of the ...

Recursion relation for general 3d blocks

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We derive closed-form expressions for all ingredients of the Zamolodchikov-like recursion relation for general spinning conformal blocks in 3-dimensional conformal field theory.

Harmonic analysis and mean field theory

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We review some aspects of harmonic analysis for the Euclidean conformal group, including conformally-invariant pairings, the Plancherel measure, and the shadow transform.
