The operator product expansion in four-dimensional superconformal field theory is discussed. The OPE takes a particularly simple form for chiral operators, in $N=1$ and $N=2$, and for analytic operators, in $N=2$ and $N=4$. It is argued…
Probabilistic conditioning is concerned with the identification of a distribution of a random variable $X$ given a random variable $Y$. It is a cornerstone of scientific and engineering applications where modeling uncertainty is key. This…
Excited state spectra are calculated using lattice QCD for baryons that can be formed from $u$, $d$ and $s$ quarks, namely the $N$, $\Delta$, $\Lambda$, $\Sigma$, $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ families of baryons. Baryonic operators are constructed…
We calculate the logarithmic contributions to the massive Wilson coefficients for deep-inelastic scattering in the asymptotic region $Q^2 \gg m^2$ to 3-loop order in the fixed-flavor number scheme and present the corresponding expressions…
The X(3872) seems to be a weakly-bound hadronic molecule whose constituents are two charm mesons. Its binding energy is much smaller than all the other energy scales in QCD. This separation of scales can be exploited through factorization…
We introduce a symmetric operad whose algebras are the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) Algebras of quantum fields. There is a natural classical limit for the algebras over this operad and they are commutative associative algebras with…
We study the operator product expansion (OPE) for scalar conformal defects of any codimension in CFT. The OPE for defects is decomposed into "defect OPE blocks", the irreducible representations of the conformal group, each of which packages…
The polarizability operator plays a central role in density functional perturbation theory and other perturbative treatment of first principle electronic structure theories. The cost of computing the polarizability operator generally scales…
We reinterpret and extend some old work on CFT/string duality. We consider some asymptotically conformal field theory in large N limit, with conformal symmetry broken by VEV's of infinite number of operators. Assuming that this theory…
We calculate moments of the $O(\alpha_s^3)$ heavy flavor contributions to the Wilson coefficients of the structure function $F_2(x,Q^2)$ in the region $Q^2\gg m^2$. The massive Wilson coefficients are obtained as convolutions of massive…
In the SL(2) conformal field theory, we write down and analyze the analytic expression of the three-point functions of generic primary fields with definite SL(2) weights. Using these results, we discuss the operator product expansion in the…
String theory is currently the most promising theory to explain the spectrum of the elementary particles and their interactions. One of its most important features is its large symmetry group, which contains the conformal transformations in…
We explain a new method for finding the correlation functions for the XXX model which is based on the concepts of Operator Product Expansion of Quantum Field Theory on one hand and of fermionic bases for the XXX spin chain on the other.…
We devise a three-parameter random search strategy to obtain accurate estimates of the large-coupling amplitude and exponent of an observable from its divergent Taylor expansion, known to some desired order. The endeavor exploits the power…
Based on a parametric point-wise decomposition, a kind of isospectral deformation, of the exact one-particle probability density of an externally confined, analytically solvable interacting two-particle model system we introduce the…
Within the operator manifold approach (part I, hep-th/9812181) we derive the Gell-Mann-Nishijima relation and flavour group, whereas the leptons are particles with integer electric and leptonic charges and free of confinement, while quarks…
Let $L$ be a linear operator on $L^2(\mathbb R^n)$ generating an analytic semigroup $\{e^{-tL}\}_{t\ge0}$ with kernels having pointwise upper bounds and $p(\cdot):\ \mathbb R^n\to(0,1]$ be a variable exponent function satisfying the…
We obtain all planar four-point correlators of half-BPS operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM up to five loops. The ansatz for the integrand is fixed partially by imposing light-cone OPE relations between different correlators. We then fix the…
A new method for calculating the coefficient functions of the operator product expansion is proposed which does not depend explicitly on elementary fields. Coefficient functions are defined entirely in terms of composite operators. The…
The quest for a formula that satisfactorily measures the effective degrees of freedom in kernel density estimation (KDE) is a long standing problem with few solutions. Starting from the orthogonal polynomial sequence (OPS) expansion for the…
