The large R-charge limit of two-point functions of chiral primary operators in rank-one N=2 superconformal field theories exhibits a universal behavior controlled by the effective field theory on their Coulomb branch. In the case of SU(2)…
Conformal theories with a global symmetry may be studied in the double scaling regime where the interaction strength is reduced while the global charge increases. Here, we study generic 4d $\mathcal N=2$ $SU(N)$ gauge theories with…
Recent work using a large-charge expansion for the $O(N)$ Wilson-Fisher conformal field theory has shown that the anomalous dimensions of large-charge operators can be expressed in terms of a few low-energy constants (LECs) of a…
We consider scalar local operators of the determinant type in the conformal ``fishnet'' theory that arises as a limit of gamma-deformed $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory. We generalise a field-theory approach to expand their…
In a class of 2D CFTs with higher spin symmetry, we compute thermal two-point functions of certain scalar primary operators in the presence of nonzero chemical potential for higher spin charge. These are shown to agree with the same…
We consider a semiclassical (large string tension ~ \lambda^1/2) limit of 4-point correlator of two "heavy" vertex operators with large quantum numbers and two "light" operators. It can be written in a factorized form as a product of two…
We show that the correlator of three large charge operators with minimal scaling dimension can be computed semiclassically in CFTs with a $U(1)$ symmetry for arbitrary fixed values of the ratios of their charges. We obtain explicitly the…
We compute correlation functions of the primordial density perturbations when they couple to a gapless, strongly coupled sector of spectator fields -- ``unparticles" -- during inflation. We first derive a four-point function of conformally…
We compute boundary three-point functions involving two scalars and a gauge field of arbitrary spin in the AdS vacuum of Vasiliev's higher spin gravity, for any deformation parameter \lambda. In the process, we develop tools for extracting…
We revisit the classic $O(N)$ symmetric scalar field theories in $d$ dimensions with interaction $(\phi^i \phi^i)^2$. For $2<d<4$ these theories flow to the Wilson-Fisher fixed points for any $N$. A standard large $N$ Hubbard-Stratonovich…
We study n-point correlation functions for chiral primary operators in three dimensional supersymmetric Chern-Simons matter theories. Our analysis is carried on in N=2 superspace and covers N=2,3 supersymmetric CFT's, the N=6 ABJM and the…

By use of conformal field theory, we discover several exact factorizations of higher-order density correlation functions in critical two-dimensional percolation. Our formulas are valid in the upper half-plane, or any conformally equivalent…
The $O(N)$ model with scalar quartic interactions at its ultraviolet fixed point, and the $O(N)$ model with scalar cubic interactions at its infra-red fixed point are conjectured to be equivalent. This has been checked by comparing various…
We compute conformal correlation functions with spinor, tensor, and spinor-tensor primary fields in general dimensions with Euclidean and Lorentzian metrics. The spinors are taken to be Dirac spinors, which exist for any dimensions. For…
We discuss the O(2N) vector model in three dimensions. While this model flows to the Wilson-Fisher fixed point when fine tuned, working in a double-scaling limit of large N and large charge allows us to study the model away from the…
We study the $\lambda\phi^4$ model in $0+2$ dimensions at criticality, and effectuate a simultaneous scaling of UV and IR physics. We demonstrate that the order parameter $\phi$, the correlation length $\xi$ and quantities like $\phi^3$ and…
