There has been recent interest in the question of whether four dimensional scale invariant unitary quantum field theories are actually conformally invariant. In this note we present a complete analysis of possible scale anomalies in…
In this paper, we explore supersymmetric and 2d analogs of the SYK model. We begin by working out a basis of (super)conformal eigenfunctions appropriate for expanding a four-point function. We use this to clarify some details of the 1d…

Singularities hidden in the collinear region around an external massless leg may lead to conformal symmetry breaking in otherwise conformally invariant finite loop momentum integrals. For an $\ell$-loop integral, this mechanism leads to a…

We identify cluster algebras for planar kinematics of conformal Feynman integrals in four dimensions, as sub-algebras of that for top-dimensional $G(4,n)$ corresponding to $n$-point massless kinematics. We provide evidence that they encode…
We study conformal field theory in $d=1$ space-time dimensions. We derive a dispersion relation for the 4-point correlation function of identical bosons and fermions, in terms of the double discontinuity. This extends the conformal…

We propose to call a class of deformed Feynman integrals as twisted Feynman integrals, where the integrand has an additional exponential factor linear in loop momenta. Such integrals appear in various contexts: tensor reduction of Feynman…
This work presents the building-blocks of an integrability-based representation for multi-point Fishnet Feynman integrals with any number of loops. Such representation relies on the quantum separation of variables (SoV) of a non-compact…
Conformal Killing-Yano tensors are introduced as a generalization of Killing vectors. They describe symmetries of higher-dimensional rotating black holes. In particular, a rank-2 closed conformal Killing-Yano tensor generates the tower of…
Two and three-point functions of primary fields in four dimensional CFT have a simple space-time dependences factored out from the combinatoric structure which enumerates the fields and gives their couplings. This has led to the formulation…
Based on the work of Guillarmou, Kupiainen, and Rhodes, we construct compactified imaginary Toda theory on closed Riemann surfaces, extending the rank-one construction to the higher-rank setting. This theory is expected to describe critical…
The duality relation between one-loop integrals and phase-space integrals, developed in a previous work, is extended to higher-order loops. The duality relation is realized by a modification of the customary +i0 prescription of the Feynman…
Fefferman and Graham showed some time ago that four dimensional conformal geometries could be analyzed in terms of six dimensional, ambient, Riemannian geometries admitting a closed homothety. Recently it was shown how conformal geometry…
