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,…

We obtain a basis of diagonal free field multi-matrix 2-point correlators in a theory with global symmetry group G. The operators fall into irreducible representations of G. This applies for gauge group U(N) at finite N. For composites made…

We study the large $N$ limit of twisted partition functions on $\mathcal{M}_{g,p}$, the $S^1$ bundle of degree $p$ over a Riemann surface of genus $g$, for 3D $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories arising as low-energy limit of…

We study the conformal bootstrap for a 4-point function of fermions $\langle\psi\psi\psi\psi\rangle$ in 3D. We first introduce an embedding formalism for 3D spinors and compute the conformal blocks appearing in fermion 4-point functions.…

Using the idea of the quantum inverse scattering method, we introduce the operators $\mathbf{B}(x), \mathbf{C}(x)$ and $\mathbf{\tilde{B}}(x), \mathbf{\tilde{C}}(x)$ corresponding to the off-diagonal entries of the monodromy matrix $T$ for…

The C/Z_N orbifold of type II string theory has localized tachyons with m^2 ranging from -1+1/N to -2/N in units of 2/\alpha'. We show that by restricting attention to the lightest tachyons it is possible to take a zero-slope limit where N…
