A note on the complex SYK model and warped CFTs

High Energy Physics - Theory 2019-01-30 v2

Abstract

We discuss the connections between the complex SYK model at the conformal limit and warped conformal field theories. Both theories have an SL(2,R)×U(1)SL(2,R) \times U(1) global symmetry. We present comparisons on symmetries, correlation functions, the effective action and the entropy formula. We also use modular covariance to reinterpret results in the complex SYK model.
