Hidden conformal symmetry for Kerr-Newman-NUT-AdS black holes
Nuclear Physics B, 2020 We find the non-extremal Kerr-Newman-NUT-AdS black holes are holographically dual to the hidden two-dimensional conformal field theories. We explicitly construct two different conformal field theories (known as the J and Q pictures) dual to the black ...

Supersymmetric warped conformal field theory [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2020 In this work, we study the supersymmetric warped conformal field theory in two dimensions. We show that the Hofman-Strominger theorem on symmetry enhancement could be generalized to the supersymmetric case. More precisely, we find that within a chiral superspace $(x^+, )$, a two-dimensional field theory with two translational invariance and a chiral ...

Algebraic Coset Conformal Field Theories [PDF]
Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2000 All unitary Rational Conformal Field Theories (RCFT) are conjectured to be related to unitary coset Conformal Field Theories, i.e., gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models with compact gauge groups. In this paper we use subfactor theory and ideas of algebraic quantum field theory to approach coset Conformal Field Theories. Two conjectures are formulated

On non-supersymmetric conformal manifolds: field theory and holography
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We discuss the constraints that a conformal field theory should enjoy to admit exactly marginal deformations, i.e. to be part of a conformal manifold. In particular, using tools from conformal perturbation theory, we derive a sum rule from which one can ...

Note on Weyl versus conformal invariance in field theory
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017 It was argued recently that conformal invariance in flat spacetime implies Weyl invariance in a general curved background for unitary theories and possible anomalies in the Weyl variation of scalar operators are identified.

ALE MANIFOLDS AND CONFORMAL FIELD THEORIES [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics A, 1994 We address the problem of constructing the family of (4,4) theories associated with the σ model on a parametrized family ℳζ of asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) manifolds. We rely on the ADE classification of these manifolds and on their construction as hyper-Kähler quotients, due to Kronheimer.

Nonrational Conformal Field Theory [PDF]
, 2009 We discuss the problem to develop a mathematical theory of a certain class of nonrational conformal field theories (CFT) which contain the unitary CFT. A variant of the concept of a modular functor is proposed that appears to be suitable for such CFT.

Hecke relations in rational conformal field theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We define Hecke operators on vector-valued modular forms of the type that appear as characters of rational conformal field theories (RCFTs). These operators extend the previously studied Galois symmetry of the modular representation and fusion algebra of

The DOZZ formula from the path integral
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We present a rigorous proof of the Dorn, Otto, Zamolodchikov, Zamolodchikov formula (the DOZZ formula) for the 3 point structure constants of Liouville Conformal Field Theory (LCFT) starting from a rigorous probabilistic construction of the functional ...
