We investigate trace formulas in $\varepsilon$-deformed W-algebras, highlighting a novel connection to the modular double of $\mathfrak{q}$-deformed W-algebras. In particular, we show that torus correlators in the additive (Yangian) setting…

We consider deformation of a generic $d$ dimensional ($d\geq 2$) large-$N$ CFT on a sphere by a spin-0 operator which is bilinear in the components of the stress tensor. Such a deformation has been proposed to be holographically dual to an…

We define three fundamental solvable bilinear deformations for any massive non-relativistic 2d quantum field theory (QFT). They include the $\mathrm{T}\overline{\mathrm{T}}$ deformation and the recently introduced hard rod deformation. We…

The central charge $C_T$ is computed for scalar and Dirac fields propagating according to GJMS-type kinetic operators acting on odd $d$-dimensional spheres in the presence of a spherical monodromy. The relation of $C_T$ to the derivatives…

The deuteron transverse charge density $\rho_C(b)$ is the two-dimensional Fourier transform of its charge form factor in the impact space. We show that different parameterizations of the charge form factors provide different $\rho_C(b)$, in…
