We consider the D1-D5 CFT near the orbifold point, specifically the computation of correlators involving twist sector fields using covering surface techniques. As is well known, certain twists introduce spin fields on the cover. Here we…

For a generic conformal field theory (CFT) in four dimensions, the scale anomaly dictates that the universal part of entanglement entropy across a sphere ($\mathcal{C}_{\text{univ}}(S^{2})$) is positive. Based on this fact, we explore the…

We develop the deformation-obstruction calculus for morphisms of complexes with a fixed lift of the codomain, to derived categories of flat nilpotent deformations of abelian categories. As an application, we give an alternative proof that…

Let $G=D_p$ be the dihedral group of order $2p$, where $p$ is an odd prime. Let $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. We show that any action of $G$ on the ring $k[[y]]$ can be lifted to an action on $R[[y]]$, where $R$…

We perform a systematic study of several models that have been proposed for the purpose of understanding the motion of driven interfaces in disordered media. We identify two distinct universality classes: (i) One of these, referred to as…

We prove the instability of $d$-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) having in the operator-product expansion of two fundamental fields a primary operator of scaling dimension $h=d/2+i r$, with non-vanishing $ r\in\mathbb{R}$. From…

The n-point functions of any Conformal Field Theory (CFT) in $d$ dimensions can always be interpreted as spatial restrictions of corresponding functions in a higher-dimensional CFT with dimension $d'> d$. In particular, when a four-point…

It is well known that a local, unitary Poincare-invariant 2D QFT with a global scaling symmetry and a discrete non-negative spectrum of scaling dimensions necessarily has both a left and a right local conformal symmetry. In this paper we…

In this work we study F-theory on symmetric toroidal orbifolds that exhibit roto-translations, which are point group rotations accompanied by fractional lattice shifts. These geometries admit a rich class of effects, such as twisted affine…

We study a very special class of $T\bar{J}$ deformations of conformal field theories in two dimensions. While the deformations break the Lorentz symmetry, they preserve the twisted Lorentz symmetry. The resulting theory has right-moving…

The MBE grown Si$_{1-x}$Ge$_x$ islands on reconstructed high index surfaces, such as, Si(5 5 12), Si(5 5 7) and Si(5 5 3) show a universality in the shape evaluation and the growth exponent parameters, \emph{irrespective} of the substrate…

The formal deformation space of a supersingular Barsotti-Tate group over of dimension two equipped with an action of Z_{p^2} is known to be isomorphic to the formal spectrum of a power series ring in two variables. If one chooses an extra…

We analyse the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of 2d CFTs in a special double-scaling limit, of large central charge and small deformation parameter. In particular, we derive closed formulae for the deformation of the product of left and right…

We consider the family of renormalizable scalar QFTs with self-interacting potentials of highest monomial $\phi^{m}$ below their upper critical dimensions $d_c=\frac{2m}{m-2}$, and study them using a combination of CFT constraints,…

The ``$D$'' matrices for all states of the two fundamental representations and octet are shown in the generalized Euler angle parameterization. The raising and lowering operators are given in terms of linear combinations of the left…

The concept of universality has shaped our understanding of many-body physics, but is mostly limited to homogenous systems. Here, we present a study of universality on a non-homogeneous graph, the long-range diluted graph (LRDG). Its…

Typos in the abstract have been corrected. Let $\rho_n$ be an ordinary weight two representation of absolute Galois group of the rationals to $GL_2(\mathcal O/\pi^n)$. Here $\mathcal O$ is a ramified DVR with uniformiser $\pi$. If $\rho_n$…

We consider a class of line operators in d=4, N=2 supersymmetric field theories which leave four supersymmetries unbroken. Such line operators support a new class of BPS states which we call "framed BPS states." These include halo bound…

This paper establishes a functorial framework for convergence of Drinfeld's Universal Deformation Formula (UDF) on spaces of analytic vectors. This is accomplished by matching the order of the latter with an equicontinuity condition on the…

In this work we study the cusp anomalous dimension of the marginally deformed N=4 sYM theory. We find the expression of the cusp anomalous dimension both at the weak and strong coupling limits. On the gravity side we partially map the…
