Chiral currents influence the parity-odd sector of CFT correlators in momentum space, playing a crucial role in the evolution of the quark-gluon plasma in the early universe. We demonstrate that these parity-odd interactions, which couple…
Non-equilibrium diffusive systems are known to exhibit long-range correlations, which decay like the inverse 1/L of the system size L in one dimension. Here, taking the example of the ABC model, we show that this size dependence becomes…

Boundary correlators of elementary fields in some 2d conformal field theories defined on AdS$_2$ have a particularly simple structure. For example, the correlators of the Liouville scalar happen to be the same as the correlators of the…
In the chiral symmetric phase, the polarized instanton--anti-instanton molecule pairing induces a nontrivial repulsive interaction in the iso-scalar axial-vector channel. As a consequence, one unusual property is observed that in the chiral…
We illustrate how the conformal Ward identities (CWIs) in momentum space completely determine the structure of a parity-odd 3-point correlator involving currents, energy momentum tensors and at least one scalar operator in $d=4$. Conformal…

We construct a model to study the impact of instantons on the low lying eigenvalue spectrum of the Dirac operator. The model is by necessity, approximate, though it does incorporate the important symmetries of the underlying field theory.…
