Carrollian conformal field theories (carrollian CFTs) are natural field theories on null infinity of an asymptotically flat spacetime or, in general, geometries with conformal carrollian structure. Using a basis transformation,…
For a given conformal field theory (CFT), one can deform it via the addition of a marginal operator to the spectrum. In two dimensions, when the added operator has conformal weights $h=\bar{h}=1$, conformal symmetry is not broken and the…
The AdS/CFT correspondence identifies the coordinates of the conformal boundary of anti-de Sitter space with the coordinates of the conformal field theory. We generalize this identification to theories formulated in superspace. As an…
We investigate the principles of quantum field theory using a stiff de Sitter space. We demonstrate that a non-unitary Lagrangian on a Euclidean AdS geometry can produce the perturbative expansion of late-time correlation functions to all…
We study the decoupling of high dimension operators from the the description of the low-energy spectrum in theories where conformal symmetry is broken by a single scale, which we refer to as `broken CFTs'. Holographic duality suggests that…
The Anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory correspondence (AdS/CFT) is one of the most significant findings in theoretical physics and forms the basis of this thesis. Although highly powerful, the main limitation of AdS/CFT is that AdS does…
A quantum field theory on Anti-de-Sitter space can be constructed from a conformal field theory on its boundary Minkowski space by an inversion of the holographic mapping. To do this the conformal field theory must satisfy certain…

We show that a pair of identical large $N$ 1D CFTs, like the low-energy limit of the SYK model or a line-defect inside a higher dimensional CFT, contains a natural sub-algebra of operators that comprise a generalized free field algebra…
In de Sitter (dS) holography, both the dS/CFT correspondence and the dS static patch holography have been extensively studied. In these two holographic frameworks, the dual field theories are defined on spacelike and timelike boundaries,…
Using the dS/QFT correspondence in the context of inflation allows for the study of interesting, otherwise inaccessible physics. In particular, by studying inflation via its dual field theory at the boundary of the de Sitter space, it may…
We study 2-point correlation functions for scalar operators in position space through holography including bulk cubic couplings as well as higher curvature couplings to the square of the Weyl tensor. We focus on scalar operators with large…

We derive a holographic relation for the dS static patch with the dual field theory defined on the observer horizon. The starting point is the duality of higher-spin theory on AdS_4 and the O(N) vector model. We build on a similar analytic…
We use the AdS/CFT correspondence to explicitly calculate some of the three-point functions in the planar limit of the 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ Leigh-Strassler SCFT. This strongly interacting CFT can be obtained as a mass deformation of the 4d…
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…
Marginal operators in a d-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT), those with conformal dimension $\Delta=d$, give us information about the space of related theories. This can be incredibly useful when trying to develop an intrinsic…
We explain how to relate the ideas of Carroll geometry, matrix theory on instantonic objects, and infinite boost limits of M-theory. Based on these new insights, we explore the implications for possible holographic constructions involving a…
