Further on the Aharonov-Bohm Green function: the coincidence limit

High Energy Physics - Theory 2022-06-08 v2

Abstract

For a scalar CFT with a monodromy defect, a `subtracted Green function' is derived in terms of an Appell F1F_1 function. A conjectured relation of Gimenez-Grau and Liendo is thereby proved and extended and shown to hold for generalised free fields. A possible means of determining the bulk block expansion is outlined. Finite coincidence limits are expressed as combinations of Beta functions.
