We study conformal blocks of conformal field theories with a W3 symmetry algebra in the limit where the central charge is large. In this limit, we compute the four-point block as a special case of an sl3-invariant function. In the case when…
We discuss the structure of 2D conformal field theories (CFT) at central charge c=0 describing critical disordered systems, polymers and percolation. We construct a novel extension of the c=0 Virasoro algebra, characterized by a number b…
We construct a set of non-rational conformal field theories that consist of deformations of Toda field theory for sl(n). Besides conformal invariance, the theories still enjoy a remnant infinite-dimensional affine symmetry. The case n=3 is…
We study conformal twist field four-point functions on a $\mathbb Z_N$ orbifold. We examine in detail the case $N=3$ and analyze theories obtained by replicated $N$-times a minimal model with central charge $c<1$. A fastly convergent…
We study 4D N=2 superconformal theories that arise from the compactification of 6D N=(2,0) theories of type A_{2N-1} on a Riemann surface C, in the presence of punctures twisted by a Z_2 outer automorphism. We describe how to do a complete…

A theory is presented for a novel recursion method for O(N) ab initio tight-binding calculations. A long-standing problem of generalizing the recursion method to a non-orthogonal basis, which is a crucial step to make the recursion method…
We study various aspects of half-BPS surface defect operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. For defects on generic points on the moduli space we use superconformal symmetry to fix the form of one-point and two-point functions of half-BPS…
We propose a new approach to the study of the correlation functions of W-algebras. The conformal blocks (chiral correlation functions), for fixed arguments, are defined to be those linear functionals on the product of the highest weight…
We introduce a novel \abinitio many-body method designed to compute the properties of nuclei in the continuum. This approach combines well-established techniques, namely the Complex Scaling (CS) and Similarity Renormalization Group (SRG)…
In this paper we study a class of modules over infinite-dimensional Lie (super)algebras, which we call conformal modules. In particular we classify and construct explicitly all irreducible conformal modules over the Virasoro and the N=1…
We introduce a class of polynomials that we call fused Specht polynomials and use them to characterize irreducible representations of the fused Hecke algebra with parameter $q=-1$ in the space of polynomials. We apply the fused Specht…
We continue our study of the semi-classical (large central charge) expansion of the toroidal one-point conformal block in the context of the 2d/4d correspondence. We demonstrate that the Seiberg-Witten curve and (epsilon1-deformed)…
We study the logarithmic superconformal field theories. Explicitly, the two-point functions of N=1 logarithmic superconformal field theories (LSCFT) when the Jordan blocks are two (or more) dimensional, and when there are one (or more)…
Irregular conformal block is motivated by the Argyres-Douglas type of N=2 super conformal gauge theory. We investigate the classical/NS limit of the irregular conformal block using spectral curve on a Riemann surface with irregular…
Classical Virasoro conformal blocks are believed to be directly related to accessory parameters of Floquet type in the Heun equation and some of its confluent versions. We extend this relation to another class of accessory parameter…
AGT allows one to compute conformal blocks of d = 2 CFT for a large class of chiral CFT algebras. This is related to the existence of a certain orthogonal basis in the module of the (extended) chiral algebra. The elements of the basis are…
Families of conformal field theories are naturally endowed with a Riemannian geometry which is locally encoded by correlation functions of exactly marginal operators. We show that the curvature of such conformal manifolds can be computed…
We study the use of transformers to reconstruct the compositions of tensor products of two-dimensional rational conformal field theories (RCFTs) based on their low-energy spectra. The task is challenging due to its combinatorial nature. The…
