We study the properties of 4d N=3 superconformal field theories whose rank is one, i.e. those that reduce to a single vector multiplet on their moduli space of vacua. We find that the moduli space can only be of the form C^3/Z_k for…
In this paper, we explore supersymmetric and 2d analogs of the SYK model. We begin by working out a basis of (super)conformal eigenfunctions appropriate for expanding a four-point function. We use this to clarify some details of the 1d…
Proceeding from nonlinear realizations of the most general N=4, d=1 superconformal symmetry associated with the supergroup D(2,1;\alpha), we construct all known and two new off-shell N=4, d=1 supermultiplets as properly constrained N=4…
We observe that conformal blocks of scalar 4-point functions in a $d$-dimensional conformal field theory can mapped to eigenfunctions of a 2-particle hyperbolic Calogero-Sutherland Hamiltonian. The latter describes two coupled…
We construct superconformal invariants in superspace which are used to build 3-point correlators of spinning operators in general $\cal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories in three dimensions. Our systematic analysis includes various…
We construct in detail an N=1, D=4 superspace with the superconformal algebra as the structure group and discuss its relation to prior component approaches and the existing Poincar\'e superspaces.
The Bol operators are unary differential operators between spaces of weighted densities on the 1-dimensional manifold invariant under projective transformations of the manifold. On the $1|n$-dimensional supermanifold (superstring)…
Large $N$ conformal field theories often admit unitary renormalization group flows triggered by double-trace deformations. We compute the change in scalar four-point functions under double-trace flow, to leading order in $1/N$. This has a…
We analyse the OPE of any two 1/2 BPS operators of (2,0) SCFT$_6$ by constructing all possible three-point functions that they can form with another, in general long operator. Such three-point functions are uniquely determined by…
Scattering amplitudes in $d+2$ dimensions can be recast as correlators of conformal primary operators in a putative holographic CFT$_d$ by working in a basis of boost eigenstates instead of momentum eigenstates. It has been shown previously…
We analyze the large $N$ spectrum of chiral primary operators of three dimensional fixed points of the renormalization group. Using the space-time picture of the fixed points and the correspondence between anti-de Sitter compactifications…
In this paper we study the four-point correlation function of the energy-momentum supermultiplet in theories with N=4 superconformal symmetry in four dimensions. We present a compact form of all component correlators as an invariant of a…
Four-point functions of gauge-invariant operators in D=4, N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are studied using N=2 harmonic superspace perturbation theory. The results are expressed in terms of differential operators acting on a scalar…
We perform a comprehensive perturbative study of the operator spectrum in multi-scalar theories with hypercubic global symmetry. This includes working out symmetry representations and their corresponding tensor structures. These structures…
Extending recent work of Kachru and Silverstein, we consider ``orbifolds'' of 4-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=4$ SU(n) super-Yang-Mills theories with respect to discrete subgroups of the SU(4) $R$-symmetry which act nontrivially on the gauge…
We calculate the anomalous dimensions of operators with large global charge $J$ in certain strongly coupled conformal field theories in three dimensions, such as the O(2) model and the supersymmetric fixed point with a single chiral…
We define the two-dimensional $O(n)$ conformal field theory as a theory that includes the critical dilute and dense $O(n)$ models as special cases, and depends analytically on the central charge. For generic values of $n\in\mathbb{C}$, we…
We explore the Ramond sector of the deformed two-dimensional $\cal N = (4, 4)$ superconformal $(T^4)^N /S_N$ orbifold theory, describing bound states of D1-D5 brane system in type IIB superstring. We derive the large-$N$ limit of the…
We systematically analyze the operator content of unitary superconformal multiplets in $d > 3$ spacetime dimensions. We present a simple, general, and efficient algorithm that generates all of these multiplets by correctly eliminating…
Turning on N=2 supersymmetry-preserving relevant operators in a 4-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theory (SCFT) corresponds to a complex deformation compatible with the rigid special Kahler geometry encoded in the low energy effective…
