For \cal{N}=1 SU(N) SYM theories obtained as marginal deformations of the \cal{N}=4 parent theory we study perturbatively some sectors of the chiral ring in the weak coupling regime and for finite N. By exploiting the relation between the…

We derive the planar limit of 2- and 3-point functions of single-trace chiral primary operators of ${\cal N}=2$ SQCD on $S^4$, to all orders in the 't Hooft coupling. In order to do so, we first obtain a combinatorial expression for the…
We analyze the chiral operator ring of the symmetric orbifold conformal field theory on the complex two-plane. We compute the large N limit of the ring and exhibit its factorized leading order behaviour. We moreover calculate all structure…

At variance with fully inclusive quantities, which have been computed already at the two- or three-loop level, most exclusive observables are still known only at one-loop, as further progress was hampered so far by the greater computational…
We develop the method of Green's function to evaluate the one loop determinants that arise in localization of supersymmetric field theories on $AdS$ spaces. The theories we study have at least ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetry and normalisable…

Using the Gegenbauer polynomials and the zonal harmonics functions we give some representation formula of the Green function in the annulus. We apply this result to prove some uniqueness results for some nonlinear elliptic problems.
Although it has long been known that the proper quantum field theory description of critical percolation involves a logarithmic conformal field theory (LCFT), no direct consequence of this has been observed so far. Representing critical…
We investigate the structure of logarithmic modes in critical topologically massive gravity (CTMG) at the chiral point $\mu \ell=1$ from the perspective of analytic continuation and monodromy. Starting from the degeneration of massive and…
Let $G(z)$ be the Green function on the flat torus $E_{\tau}=\mathbb{C}/(\mathbb{Z}+\mathbb{Z}\tau)$ with the singularity at $0$. Lin and Wang (Ann. Math. 2010) proved that $G(z)$ has either $3$ or $5$ critical points (depending on the…
There are indications that some theories with spontaneous symmetry breaking also feature a light scalar in their spectrum, with a mass comparable to the one of the Goldstone modes. In this paper, we perform the one-loop renormalization of a…
We introduce a new type of pluricomplex Green function which has a logarithmic pole along a complex subspace A of a complex manifold X. It is the largest negative plurisubharmonic function on X whose Lelong number is at least the Lelong…
In this paper we compute the one-loop chiral logarithmic corrections to all O(p^4) counterterms in the three site Higgsless model. The calculation is performed using the background field method for both the chiral- and gauge-fields, and…

The theory of free Majorana-Weyl spinors is the prototype of conformal field theory in two dimensions in which the gravitational anomaly and the Weyl anomaly obstruct extending the flat spacetime results to curved backgrounds. In this…
