Higher-Point Conformal Blocks in the Comb Channel

High Energy Physics - Theory 2020-09-22 v2

Abstract

We compute MM-point conformal blocks with scalar external and exchange operators in the so-called comb configuration for any MM in any dimension dd. Our computation involves repeated use of the operator product expansion to increase the number of external fields. We check our results in several limits and compare with the expressions available in the literature when M=5M=5 for any dd, and also when MM is arbitrary while d=1d=1.
