The evaluation of the 4-point Green functions in the 1+1 Schwinger model is presented both in momentum and coordinate space representations. The crucial role in our calculations play two Ward identities: i) the standard one, and ii) the…
We construct a new representation for two- and three-point correlators of operators from sl(2) sector of planar N = 4 SYM. The spin and twist of operators are arbitrary. We start with the correlation function of light-ray operators and…
We show that the four-point functions in conformal field theory are defined as distributions on the boundary of the region of convergence of the conformal block expansion. The conformal block expansion converges in the sense of…
Modular graph functions arise in the calculation of the low-energy expansion of closed-string scattering amplitudes. For toroidal world-sheets, they are ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$-invariant functions of the torus complex structure that have…
We study the structure of the four-point correlation function of the lowest-dimension 1/2 BPS operators (stress-tensor multiplets) in the (2,0) six-dimensional theory. We first discuss the superconformal Ward identities and the…
The symmetry of the Bloch functions in the conduction band of tetragonal and orthorhombic La_2CuO_4 is examined for the existence of symmetry-adapted and optimally localizable (usual or spin-dependent) Wannier functions. It turns out that…
The spin-4/3 fractional superstring is characterized by a world-sheet chiral algebra involving spin-4/3 currents. The discussion of the tree-level scattering amplitudes of this theory presented in hepth/9310131 is expanded to include…
The effect of damping of spinwaves in a two-dimensional classical ferromagnetic XY model is considered. The damping rate $\Gamma_{q}$ is calculated using the leading diagrams due to the quartic-order deviations from the harmonic spin…
Leading (large) logarithms in non-renormalizable theories have been investigated in the recent past. Besides some general considerations, explicit results for the expansion coefficients (in terms of leading logarithms) of partial wave…
According to the work of Berkovits, Vafa and Witten (hep-th/9902098), the non-linear sigma model on the supergroup PSU(1,1|2) is the essential building block for string theory on AdS(3)xS(3)xT(4). Models associated with a non-vanishing…
In this paper, we establish an optimal dual version of trace estimate involving angular regularity. Based on this estimate, we get the generalized Morawetz estimates and weighted Strichartz estimates for the solutions to a large class of…
A SYK--like model close to the colored tensor models has recently been proposed \cite{Witten:2016iux}. Building on results obtained in tensor models \cite{GurSch}, we discuss the complete $1/N$ expansion of the model. We detail the two and…
We probe flows of soft, viscous spheres near the jamming point, which acts as a critical point for static soft spheres. Starting from energy considerations, we find nontrivial scaling of velocity fluctuations with strain rate. Combining…
Recently it has been proposed that the coefficient of the three-point function of the BMN operators in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is related to the three-string interactions in the pp-wave background. We calculate three-point…
We consider bosonic string theory on $\text{AdS}_3$ supported by Kalb-Ramond flux. It is well known that the $\alpha'$ exact worldsheet theory is described by the $\text{SL(2,R)}$ WZW model. In this note we perform checks of an $\alpha'$…

We study the consistency of four-point functions of half-BPS chiral primary operators of weight p in four-dimensional N=4 superconformal field theories. The resulting conformal bootstrap equations impose non-trivial bounds for the scaling…
We consider holographic three-point functions for operators dual to short string states at strong coupling in N=4 super Yang-Mills. We treat the states as point-like as they come in from the boundary but as strings in the interaction region…
This paper revisits a recently developed methodology based on the matrix Lambert W function for the stability analysis of linear time invariant, time delay systems. By studying a particular, yet common, second order system, we show that in…
We provide a novel local definition for spectrally flowed vertex operators in the SL(2,$\mathbb{R}$)-WZW model, generalising the proposal of Maldacena and Ooguri in [arXiv:hep-th/0111180] for the singly-flowed case to all $\omega > 1$. This…
