Virasoro blocks at large exchange dimension

High Energy Physics - Theory 2021-02-03 v3

Abstract

In this paper, we analyze Virasoro conformal blocks in the limit when the operator exchange dimension is taking to be large in comparison with the other parameters dependence of the block. We do this by using Zamolodchikov's recursion relations. We found a dramatically simplified solution at leading order in an inverse power expansion in large exchange conformal dimension in terms of a quasi-modular form in an Eisenstein series representation. We compare this solution with existing results obtained previously by using AGT correspondence.
