Extended Conformal Symmetry [PDF]
, 2000 We show that the grading of fields by conformal weight, when built into the initial group symmetry, provides a discrete, non-central conformal extension of any group containing dilatations.

Hidden conformal symmetry in tree-level graviton scattering [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We argue that the scattering of gravitons in ordinary Einstein gravity possesses a hidden conformal symmetry at tree level in any number of dimensions. The presence of this conformal symmetry is indicated by the dilaton soft theorem in string theory, and

Reduced conformal symmetry [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We construct field theories in 2 + 1 dimensions with multiple conformal symmetries acting on only one of the spatial directions. These can be considered a conformal extension to “subsystem scale invariances”, borrowing the language often used for ...

A new property of the electromagnetic/Yang–Mills-conformal gravity system in spherical symmetry
Nuclear Physics B, 2019 We find a new property in W2-conformal gravity in spherical symmetry. We demonstrate that the charge of the electromagnetic field varies with respect to the partial scaling symmetry (conformal transformations in subspaces of a spacetime) in the conformal

Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in 5D Conformally Invariant Gravity [PDF]
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2016 We explore the possibility of the spontaneous symmetry breaking in 5D conformally invariant gravity, whose action consists of a scalar field nonminimally coupled to the curvature with its potential. Performing dimensional reduction via ADM decomposition,

Correlation functions of warped CFT
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Warped conformal field theory (WCFT) is a two dimensional quantum field theory whose local symmetry algebra consists of a Virasoro algebra and a U(1) Kac-Moody algebra. In this paper, we study correlation functions for primary operators in WCFT.

Gravitational coupling of QED and QCD: 3- and 4- point functions in momentum space [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 Conformal symmetry has important consequences for strong interactions at short distances and provides powerful tools for practical calculations. Even if the Lagrangians of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and Electrodynamics (QED) are invariant under ...

Yangian bootstrap for massive Feynman integrals
SciPost Physics, 2021 We extend the study of the recently discovered Yangian symmetry of massive Feynman integrals and its relation to massive momentum space conformal symmetry.

Introduction to Quantization of Conformal Gravity
Universe, 2022 A method for consistent quantization of conformal gravity treating conformal symmetry in a very controllable way is presented. First, we discuss local conformal symmetry in the framework of gravitational interactions, where we view it as an example of a ...
