We study modular Hamiltonians corresponding to the vacuum state for deformed half-spaces in relativistic quantum field theories on $\mathbb{R}^{1,d-1}$. We show that in addition to the usual boost generator, there is a contribution to the…

Within the context of holography we study the general class of $d=4$ conformal field theories after applying a universal helical deformation. At finite temperature we construct the associated black hole solutions of Einstein gravity,…

We perform the dynamical change of coordinates to derive a generalization of the trace relation and apply it to the non-linear Schr\"odinger model. After that, we work out the dimensional reduction of the bilinear $T\bar T$ operator and…

We prove a C-theorem within the framework of two dimensional quantum field theories at finite temperature. There exists a function C(g) of coupling constants which is non-increasing along renormalization group trajectories and…

We study the Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA) equations for pure $T\bar{T}$ perturbations of some simple integrable quantum field theories with a single bosonic or fermionic particle, in particular the massive sinh-Gordon model and its…

In this note we explore the application of modular invariance in 2-dimensional CFT to derive universal bounds for quantities describing certain state degeneracies, such as the thermodynamic entropy, or the number of marginal operators. We…

Two types of Carrollian field theories are shown to emerge from finite current-current deformations of toroidal CFT$_{2}$'s when the deformation coupling is precisely fixed, up to a sign. In both cases the energy and momentum densities…

I study the entanglement entropy (EE) across a deformed sphere in conformal field theories (CFTs). I show that the sphere (locally) minimizes the universal term in EE among all shapes. In arXiv:1407.7249 it was derived that the sphere is a…

In this paper we quantize the $N$-dimensional classical Hamiltonian system $H= \frac{|q|}{2(\eta + |q|)} p^2-\frac{k}{\eta +|q|}$, that can be regarded as a deformation of the Coulomb problem with coupling constant $k$, that it is smoothly…

We point out that the arguments of Zamolodchikov and others on the $T\overline T$ and similar deformations of two-dimensional field theories may be extended to the more general non-Lorentz invariant case, for example non-relativistic and…
