Massless scattering amplitudes in four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime can be Mellin transformed to correlation functions on the celestial sphere at null infinity called celestial amplitudes. We study various properties of massless…
We apply the coset character identities (generalization of Jacobi's abstruse identity) to compact and noncompact Gepner models. In the both cases, we prove that the partition function actually vanishes due to the spacetime supersymmetry. In…
The Jacobi identities play an important role in constructing the explicit exact solutions of a broad class of integrable systems in soliton theory. In the paper, a direct and simple proof of the Jacobi identities for determinants is…
We consider matrices on infinite trees which are universal covers of Jacobi matrices on finite graphs. We are interested in the question of the existence of sequences of finite covers whose normalized eigenvalue counting measures converge…
We state and prove various new identities involving the Z_K parafermion characters (or level-K string functions) for the cases K=4, K=8, and K=16. These identities fall into three classes: identities in the first class are generalizations…
In this letter, we study tree-level scattering amplitudes of scalar particles in the context of effective field theories. We use tools similar to the soft bootstrap to build an ansatz for cyclically ordered amplitudes and impose the…
This paper considers efficient spectral solutions for weakly singular nonlocal diffusion equations with Dirichlet-type volume constraints. The equation we consider contains an integral operator that typically has a singularity at the…
In this paper we evaluate the modified celestial amplitude for gravitons and gluons, as defined in arXiv:1801.10171[hep-th]. We find that the modified (tree) amplitude is finite for gravitons in Einstein gravity. The modified amplitude…
Causality places nontrivial constraints on QFT in Lorentzian signature, for example fixing the signs of certain terms in the low energy Lagrangian. In d-dimensional conformal field theory, we show how such constraints are encoded in…
The generic structure of 4-point functions of fields residing in indecomposable representations of arbitrary rank is given. The presented algorithm is illustrated with some non-trivial examples and permutation symmetries are exploited to…
We establish a topological criterion for connection between reducibility to constant rotations and dual localization, for the general family of analytic quasiperiodic Jacobi operators. As a corollary, we obtain the sharp arithmetic phase…
By using the scheme of Jacobi elliptic functions with their duality symmetries we present a formulation of the Jacobi- Gordon field theory that will manifest the strong/weak coupling duality at classical level; for certain continuous limits…
We use tools from conformal representation theory to classify the symmetries associated to conformally soft operators in celestial CFT (CCFT) in general dimensions $d$. The conformal multiplets in $d>2$ take the form of celestial necklaces…
We study the effect of electromagnetic interactions on the classical soft theorems on an asymptotically AdS background in 4 spacetime dimensions, in the limit of a small cosmological constant or equivalently a large AdS radius $l$. This…
Multi-collinear factorization limits provide a window to study how locality and unitarity of scattering amplitudes can emerge dynamically from celestial CFT, the conjectured holographic dual to gauge and gravitational theories in flat…
We compute the operator product expansions of gluons and gravitons in celestial CFT from the worldsheet OPE of vertex operators of four-dimensional ambitwistor string theories. Remarkably, the worldsheet OPE localizes on the short-distance…
String-local fields constitute a relatively new tool for solving quantum field theory, stressing and embodying locality and positivity. We examine here their usefulness -- as well as some drawbacks. Starting from just the physical masses…
Celestial amplitudes may be decomposed as weighted integrals of AdS$_3$-Witten diagrams associated to each leaf of a hyperbolic foliation of spacetime. We show, for the Kleinian three-point MHV amplitude, that each leaf subamplitude is…
In this paper we show two examples of numerical orbital integrations (Planar Circular Restricted Three Body Problem) in which even though the conservation of Jacobi's constant is near to 1 part in 10e8, the integration proves to be wrong.…
Various observables in compact CFTs are required to obey positivity, discreteness, and integrality. Positivity forms the crux of the conformal bootstrap, but understanding of the abstract implications of discreteness and integrality for the…
