Worldline approach to semi-classical conformal blocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We extend recent results on semi-classical conformal blocks in 2d CFT and their relation to 3D gravity via the AdS/CFT correspondence. We consider four-point functions with two heavy and two light external operators, along with the exchange of a light ...

Scaling gridded river networks for macroscale hydrology: Development, analysis, and control of error [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A simple and robust river network scaling algorithm (NSA) is presented to rescale fine‐resolution networks to any coarser resolution. The algorithm was tested over the Danube River basin and the European continent.
