Conformal Transformations in Metric-Affine Gravity and Ghosts [PDF]
, 2012 Conformal transformations play a widespread role in gravity theories in regard to their cosmological and other implications. In the pure metric theory of gravity, conformal transformations change the frame to a new one wherein one obtains a conformal ...

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 ...

Conformal Field Theories in Fractional Dimensions [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2014 We study the conformal bootstrap in fractional space-time dimensions, obtaining rigorous bounds on operator dimensions. Our results show strong evidence that there is a family of unitary CFTs connecting the 2D Ising model, the 3D Ising model, and the free scalar theory in 4D. We give numerical predictions for the leading operator dimensions and central

N=2 structures in all string theories
, 1995 The BRST cohomology of any topological conformal field theory admits the structure of a Batalin--Vilkovisky algebra, and string theories are no exception.

From Operator Algebras to Superconformal Field Theory [PDF]
, 2010 We make a review on the recent progress in the operator algebraic approach to (super)conformal field theory. We discuss representation theory, classification results, full and boundary conformal field theories, relations to supervertex operator algebras ...

Universal spinning Casimir equations and their solutions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 Conformal blocks are a central analytic tool for higher dimensional conformal field theory. We employ Harish-Chandra’s radial component map to construct universal Casimir differential equations for spinning conformal blocks in any dimension d of ...

Spin clusters and conformal field theory [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2013 We study numerically the fractal dimensions and the bulk three-point connectivity for the spin clusters of the Q-state Potts model in two dimensions with $1\leq Q\leq 4$. We check that the usually invoked correspondence between FK clusters and spin clusters works at the level of fractal dimensions.

Quantum critical response: from conformal perturbation theory to holography
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We discuss dynamical response functions near quantum critical points, allowing for both a finite temperature and detuning by a relevant operator. When the quantum critical point is described by a conformal field theory (CFT), conformal perturbation ...

Einstein gravity 3-point functions from conformal field theory [PDF]
, 2016 A bstractWe study stress tensor correlation functions in four-dimensional conformal field theories with large N and a sparse spectrum. Theories in this class are expected to have local holographic duals, so effective field theory in anti-de Sitter ...
