We show that there is a dual description of conformal blocks of $d=2$ rational CFT in terms of Hecke eigenfields and eigensheaves. In particular, partition functions, conformal characters and lattice theta functions may be reconstructed…

We introduce a framework for two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) in the language of analytic number theory. Attached to the torus partition function of every two-dimensional CFT is a self-dual, degree-4 $L$-function of root number…

The partition function of a family of four dimensional N=2 gauge theories has been recently related to correlation functions of two dimensional conformal Toda field theories. For SU(2) gauge theories, the associated two dimensional theory…

Carrollian conformal field theories (carrollian CFTs) are natural field theories on null infinity of an asymptotically flat spacetime or, in general, geometries with conformal carrollian structure. Using a basis transformation,…

Correlation functions of Toda field vertices are investigated by applying the method of integrating zero-mode developed for Liouville theory. We generalize the relations among the zero-, two- and three-point couplings known in Liouville…
