SUSY sine-Gordon theory as a perturbed conformal field theory and finite size effects [PDF]

, 2003
We consider SUSY sine-Gordon theory in the framework of perturbed conformal field theory. Using an argument from Zamolodchikov, we obtain the vacuum structure and the kink adjacency diagram of the theory, which is cross-checked against the exact S-matrix

Minimal lectures on two-dimensional conformal field theory

SciPost Physics Lecture Notes, 2018
We provide a brief but self-contained review of conformal field theory on the Riemann sphere. We first introduce general axioms such as local conformal invariance, and derive Ward identities and BPZ equations.

Exact Solutions in SFT and Marginal Deformation in BCFT

, 2003
In this note we will study solution of open bosonic string field theory based on action of operators from chiral algebra of boundary conformal field theory on identity element of string field theory star algebra. We will demonstrate that the string field

Localized quench in 1+1 conformal field theory

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
We study the boundary dual of AdS3 spacetime with a point particle. Particles in AdS3 generate topological defects, which allows to formulate the geodesic image method for boundary correlators.

Loops in AdS from conformal field theory

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We propose and demonstrate a new use for conformal field theory (CFT) crossing equations in the context of AdS/CFT: the computation of loop amplitudes in AdS, dual to non-planar correlators in holographic CFTs. Loops in AdS are largely unexplored, mostly

Giant Gravitons in Conformal Field Theory

, 2001
Giant gravitons in AdS_5 x S^5, and its orbifolds, have a dual field theory representation as states created by chiral primary operators. We argue that these operators are not single-trace operators in the conformal field theory, but rather are ...

Conformal Invariance in Classical Field Theory

, 1993
A geometric generalization of first-order Lagrangian formalism is used to analyse a conformal field theory for an arbitrary primary field. We require that global conformal transformations are Noetherian symmetries and we prove that the action functional ...

AdS/CFT Correspondence And Topological Field Theory [PDF]

, 1998
In ${\cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory on a four-manifold $M$, one can specify a discrete magnetic flux valued in $H^2(M,\Z_N)$. This flux is encoded in the AdS/CFT correspondence in terms of a five-dimensional topological field theory with Chern-Simons

Reparametrization modes, shadow operators, and quantum chaos in higher-dimensional CFTs

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We study two novel approaches to efficiently encoding universal constraints imposed by conformal symmetry, and describe applications to quantum chaos in higher dimensional CFTs.

Entanglement entropy in conformal quantum mechanics

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We consider sets of states in conformal quantum mechanics associated to generators of time evolution whose orbits cover different regions of the time domain.
