We verify the operator product expansion (OPE) of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) on the lattice and present first results of a non-perturbative calculation of the Wilson coefficients.
We present results from numerical studies of the finite temperature phase transition of the $(3+1)d$ O(N)-symmetric non-linear sigma model for $N=1,2$ and 3. We study the dependence of the width of the 3d critical region on $N$ and we show…
We study the properties of operators in a unitary conformal field theory whose scaling dimensions approach each other for some values of the parameters and satisfy von Neumann-Wigner non-crossing rule. We argue that the scaling dimensions…
We study the critical properties of three-dimensional O(N) models, for N=2,3,4. Parameterizing the leading corrections-to-scaling for the $\eta$ exponent, we obtain a reliable infinite volume extrapolation, incompatible with previous Monte…
We discuss the current use of the operator product expansion in QCD calculations. Treating the OPE as an expansion in inverse powers of an energy-squared variable (with possible exponential terms added), approximating the vacuum expectation…
Given an observable and its operator product expansion (OPE), we present expressions that carefully disentangle truncated sums of the perturbative series in powers of $\alpha$ from the non-perturbative (NP) corrections. This splitting is…
We take an analytic approach to the CFT bootstrap, studying the 4-pt correlators of d > 2 dimensional CFTs in an Eikonal-type limit, where the conformal cross ratios satisfy |u| << |v| < 1. We prove that every CFT with a scalar operator…
An effective Finite-Size Scaling (FSS) of moment products from recent STAR measurements of the variance $\sigma$, skewness $S$ and kurtosis $\kappa$ of net-proton multiplicity distributions, are reported for a broad range of collision…
We extend the planar Pfaffian formalism for the evaluation of the Ising partition function to lattices of high topological genus g. The 3D Ising model on a cubic lattice, where g is proportional to the number of sites, is discussed in…
We obtain all planar four-point correlators of half-BPS operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM up to five loops. The ansatz for the integrand is fixed partially by imposing light-cone OPE relations between different correlators. We then fix the…
We continue the study, initiated in arXiv:1404.1094, of the $O(N)$ symmetric theory of $N+1$ massless scalar fields in $6-\epsilon$ dimensions. This theory has cubic interaction terms $\frac{1}{2}g_1 \sigma (\phi^i)^2 + \frac{1}{6}g_2…
We describe in more detail our approach to the conformal bootstrap which uses the Mellin representation of $CFT_d$ four point functions and expands them in terms of crossing symmetric combinations of $AdS_{d+1}$ Witten exchange functions.…
Carrollian conformal field theory offers an alternative description of massless scattering amplitudes, that is holographic in nature. In an effort to build a framework that is both predictive and constraining, we construct operator product…
We formally extend the CFT techniques introduced in arXiv:1505.00963, to $\phi^{\frac{2d_0}{d_0-2}}$ theory in $d=d_0-\epsilon$ dimensions and use it to compute anomalous dimensions near $d_0=3, 4$ in a unified manner. We also do a similar…
We present an efficient algorithm for calculating the properties of Ising models in two dimensions, directly in the spin basis, without the need for mapping to fermion or dimer models. The algorithm gives numerically exact results for the…
We obtain the planar correlation function of four half-BPS operators of arbitrary weights, up to three loops. Our method exploits only elementary properties of the integrand of the planar correlator, such as its symmetries and singularity…
We calculate the two-particle irreducible (2PI) effective potential of the O(N) linear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions. The approximations we use are the next-to-leading order of a 1/N expansion (for arbitrary N) and a kind of "resummed loop…
We consider the operator product expansion of local single-trace operators composed of the self-dual components of the field strength tensor in planar QCD. Using the integrability of the one-loop matrix of anomalous dimensions of such…
The fractal dimensions of polymer chains and high-temperature graphs in the Ising model both in three dimension are determined using the conformal bootstrap applied for the continuation of the $O(N)$ models from $N=1$ (Ising model) to $N=0$…
Exact analytical expressions for the $\Delta S=1$ coupling $\im G_E$ in terms of observable spectral functions are given. This coupling determines the size of the $\Delta I=3/2$ contribution to $\epsilon'$. We show analytically how the…
