Markov Property of the Conformal Field Theory Vacuum and the a Theorem. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2017
We use strong subadditivity of entanglement entropy, Lorentz invariance, and the Markov property of the vacuum state of a conformal field theory to give new proof of the irreversibility of the renormalization group in d=4 space-time dimensions-the a ...

Spinning operators and defects in conformal field theory [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
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 ...

Dynamics of R-neutral Ramond fields in the D1-D5 SCFT

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We describe the effect of the marginal deformation of the N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (4, 4) super-conformal (T 4) N /S N orbifold theory on a doublet of R-neutral twisted Ramond fields, in the large-N approximation. Our analysis of their dynamics explores the

Entanglement Hamiltonians in two-dimensional conformal field theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We enumerate the cases in 2d conformal field theory where the logarithm of the reduced density matrix (the entanglement or modular Hamiltonian) may be written as an integral over the energy-momentum tensor times a local weight.

Conformal field theory and the web of quantum chaos diagnostics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We study three prominent diagnostics of chaos and scrambling in the context of two-dimensional conformal field theory: the spectral form factor, out-of-time-ordered correlators, and unitary operator entanglement.

Quantum Conformal Algebras and Closed Conformal Field Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We investigate the quantum conformal algebras of N=2 and N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories. Phenomena occurring at strong coupling are analysed using the Nachtmann theorem and very general, model-independent, arguments. The results lead us to introduce a

The Cardy-Verlinde Formula and Taub-Bolt-AdS Spacetimes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We consider the conformal field theory which is dual to the Taub-Bolt-AdS spacetime. It is shown that the Cardy-Verlinde formula for the entropy of the conformal field theory agrees precisely with the entropy of the Taub-Bolt-AdS spacetime, at high ...

AdS field theory from conformal field theory [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2013
Abstract We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a Conformal Field Theory to have a description in terms of a perturbative Effective Field Theory in AdS. The first two conditions are well-known: the existence of a perturbative ‘1/N ’ expansion and an approximate Fock space of states generated by a finite number of low ...

Conformal Field Theories: From Old to New [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
In a short review of recent work, we discuss the general problem of constructing the actions of new conformal field theories from old conformal field theories.

Conformal field theory out of equilibrium: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We provide a pedagogical review of the main ideas and results in non-equilibrium conformal field theory and connected subjects. These concern the understanding of quantum transport and its statistics at and near critical points.
