Chiral orbifold models are defined as gauge field theories with a finite gauge group $\Gamma$. We start with a conformal current algebra A associated with a connected compact Lie group G and a negative definite integral invariant bilinear…

Genus two partition functions of 2d chiral conformal field theories are given by Siegel modular forms. We compute their conformal blocks and use them to perform the conformal bootstrap. The advantage of this approach is that it imposes…

Following the initial proposal in 1988, there has been much progress in classifying Rational Conformal Field Theories in 2 dimensions from the Holomorphic Bootstrap approach. This method starts by postulating a generic holomorphic Modular…

Model wave functions constructed from (1+1)D conformal field theory (CFT) have played a vital role in studying chiral topologically ordered systems. There usually exist multiple degenerate ground states when such states are placed on the…

Classical clustering methods usually return either a finite partition of the observed data or a finite dendrogram over it. This finite-sample view is inadequate when the hierarchy of interest is a recursive geometric object with fine-scale…

We continue our program of mapping data of 4D $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) onto observables of 2D chiral rational conformal field theories (RCFTs) by revisiting an infinite set of strongly coupled Argyres-Douglas…

We classify Haag-dual Poincar\'e covariant subsystems $\B\subset \F$ of a graded-local net $\F$ on 4D Minkowski spacetime which satisfies standard assumptions and has trivial superselection structure. The result applies to the canonical…

We introduce a class of Higgs-branch RG flows in theories of class-S, which flow between $d=4$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs of the same ADE type. We discuss two applications of this class of RG flows: 1) determining the current-algebra levels in…

We show that renormalization group (RG) theory applied to complex networks are useful to classify network topologies into universality classes in the space of configurations. The RG flow readily identifies a small-world/fractal transition…

Recently an orthogonal basis of $\mathcal{W}_N$-algebra (AFLT basis) labeled by $N$-tuple Young diagrams was found in the context of 4D/2D duality. Recursion relations among the basis are summarized in the form of an algebra SH$^c$ which is…

We introduce a family of dualities between certain non-supersymmetric self-dual gauge theories on a large class of $4d$ self-dual asymptotically flat backgrounds, and the large $N$ limit of an independently defined $2d$ chiral defect CFT.…

We investigate exactly solvable two-dimensional conformal field theories that exist at generic values of the central charge, and that interpolate between A-series or D-series minimal models. When the central charge becomes rational,…

We formulate a notion of "geometric reductivity" in an abstract categorical setting which we refer to as adequacy. The main theorem states that the adequacy condition implies that the ring of invariants is finitely generated. This result…

Following the earlier formalism of the categorical representation learning (arXiv:2103.14770) by the first two authors, we discuss the construction of the "RG-flow based categorifier". Borrowing ideas from theory of renormalization group…

We consider RG flows obtained by a relevant deformation from unitary and compact two-dimensional (0,2) SCFTs. We point out that an N=2 super-Kac-Moody algebra present in the UV is preserved by the flow and does not mix with the R-current.…

We extend the analysis of arXiv:2208.11703 to the 6d $(1,0)$ SCFTs known as massive E-string theories, which can be engineered in massive Type IIA with $8-n_0<8$ D8-branes close to an O8$^-$ (or O8$^*$ if $n_0=8,9$). For each choice of…

Filtering-based graph neural networks (GNNs) constitute a distinct class of GNNs that employ graph filters to handle graph-structured data, achieving notable success in various graph-related tasks. Conventional methods adopt a graph-wise…

We discuss walking behavior in gauge theories and weak first-order phase transitions in statistical physics. Despite appearing in very different systems (QCD below the conformal window, the Potts model, deconfined criticality) these two…

We study geometric modular flows in two-dimensional conformal field theories. We explore which states exhibit a geometric modular flow with respect to a causally complete subregion and, conversely, how to construct a state from a given…

Many CFTs can be extended to lines of nonlocal CFTs parametrised by the scaling dimension $\Delta$ of the fundamental field appearing in the action. $\Delta=\frac{d}{2}-\zeta$ is set by the exponent of the kinetic term…
