We compute the contribution of the vacuum Virasoro representation to the genus-two partition function of an arbitrary CFT with central charge $c>1$. This is the perturbative pure gravity partition function in three dimensions. We employ a…

We derive new constraints on the spectrum of two-dimensional conformal field theories with central charge $c>1.$ Employing the pillow representation of the four point correlator of identical scalars with dimension $\Delta_{\mathcal{O}}$ and…

We present an explicit conjecture for the chiral fusion algebra of critical percolation considering Virasoro representations with no enlarged or extended symmetry algebra. The representations we take to generate fusion are countably…

Non-relativistic versions of the AdS/CFT conjecture have recently been investigated in some detail. These have primarily been in the context of the Schrodinger symmetry group. Here we initiate a study based on a {\it different}…

We use the framework of $\textit{fixed-point BCFT tensor networks}$ to present a microscopic CFT derivation of the correspondence between reflected entropy (RE) and entanglement wedge cross section (EW) in AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$, for both…

We study the self-energy of a gravitating point particle in AdS$_3$, and compare to operator dimensions in CFT$_2$. In particular, we compute the one and two loop diagram contributions to the expectation value of an open Wilson line in the…

Let $\mathcal{F}_{25}$ be the family of irreducible highest weight modules for the Virasoro algebra of central charge $25$ which are not isomorphic to Verma modules. Let $L(25,0)$ be the Virasoro vertex operator algebra of central charge…

This is the first part of an investigation concerning the formulation of 2D gravity in the framework of the uniformization theory of Riemann surfaces. As a first step in this direction we show that the classical Liouville action appears in…

There might exist non-rational Virasoro CFTs in two dimensions with a $(\text{Fib} \boxtimes \text{Fib}) \rtimes S_2$ categorical symmetry. We calculate the necessary ingredients for a modular conformal bootstrap analysis of these theories.…

We find two bases for the lattices of the SU(2)-TQFT-theory modules of the torus over given rings of integers. We use variant of the bases defined in [GMW]for the lattices of the SO(3)-TQFT-theory modules of the torus. Moreover, we discuss…

The universal nature of black hole collapse in asymptotically $AdS_3$ gravitational theories suggests that its holographic dual process, thermalization, should similarly be fixed by the universal features of 2d CFT with large central charge…

A conformal restriction system is a commutative, associative, unital algebra equipped with a representation of the groupoid of univalent conformal maps on connected open sets of the Riemann sphere, and a family of linear functionals on…

We show that the Virasoro fusion kernel is equal to Ruijsenaars' hypergeometric function up to normalization. More precisely, we prove that the Virasoro fusion kernel is a joint eigenfunction of four difference operators. We find a…

We consider the semiclassical limit of the vacuum Virasoro block describing the diagonal 4-point correlation functions on the sphere. At large central charge c, after exponentiation, it depends on two fixed ratios h_H/c and h_L/c, where…

The gauge formulation of Einstein gravity in AdS$_3$ background leads to a boundary theory that breaks modular symmetry and loses the covariant form. We examine the Weyl anomaly for the cylinder and torus manifolds. The divergent term is…

We propose a formula for the transformation law of anyons in topologically ordered phases or topological quantum field theories (TQFTs) through a gapped or symmetry-preserving domain wall. Our formalism is based on the ring homomorphism…

The AdS Virasoro-Shapiro amplitude has recently been generalized to the AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ correspondence between type IIB string theory on $ AdS_3 \times S^3 \times K3$ (or $T^4$), supported by Ramond-Ramond flux, and the D1-D5 CFT. In this…

We have considered clusters of like spin in the Q-Potts model, the spin Potts clusters. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we studied these clusters on a square lattice with periodic boundary conditions for values of Q in [1,4]. We continue the…

We provide an effective solution of the 1D crossing equation. We begin by arguing that crossing constraints can be recast in terms of bases of sum rules associated to special sets of CFT data -- extremal solutions -- which solve these…

For any non-unitary model with central charge c(2,q) the path spaces associated to a certain fusion graph are isomorphic to the irreducible Virasoro highest weight modules.
