In nonperturbative formulation of Euclidean signature quantum field theory (QFT), the vacuum state is characterized by the Wilsonian renormalization group (RG) flow of Feynman measures. Such an RG flow is a family of Feynman measures on the…
The macroscopic energy-momentum and spin densities of relativistic spin hydrodynamics are obtained from the ensemble average of their respective microscopic definitions (quantum operators). These microscopic definitions suffer from…
We bootstrap tree-level supergravity four-point correlators on AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ with one external half-BPS double-particle operator and three half-BPS single-particle operators. Our only input is the consistency of the operator product…
We define Deligne-Beilinson (DB) cohomology on a cubic lattice and use it to formulate and analyze lattice $U(1)$ Chern-Simons theory at even levels. The continuum DB cohomology provides a refined mathematical framework for continuum $U(1)$…
We investigate how the gravitational effects of a black hole manifest themselves as thermal behavior in the dual finite-temperature conformal field theory (CFT). In the holographic framework of AdS/CFT, we analyze a wave packet propagating…
We study aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence for $\mathcal{N}=4$ $U(N)$ super Yang-Mills theory on $S^3/\Gamma$, where $\Gamma \subset SU(2)$ is a finite subgroup, leading to an ADE singularity in the bulk AdS geometry. We show that a…
We consider higher-point generalizations of the "octagon" large-charge four-point function in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. These n-point polygon correlators are defined as ten-dimensional null limits of generating functions of…
We extend recent discussions on generalization of the Connected Wedge Theorem about $2$-to-$2$ holographic scattering problem to $n$-to-$n$ scatterings ($n>2$). In this broader setting, our theorem provides a weaker necessary condition for…
We revisit Maxwell theory in 4d with a boundary, with particular attention to the global properties of the boundary conditions, both in the free (topological) and interacting (conformal) cases. We analyze the fate of Wilson-'t Hooft lines,…
As pointed out in recent research, the near extremal black hole entropy with one-loop effect exhibits universal $\log T$ behavior at sufficiently low temperature. In this paper, we discuss the low-temperature quantum corrections to the…
We accomplish the quantization of a few classical constrained systems \`a la (modified) Faddeev-Jackiw formalism. We analyze the constraint structure and obtain basic brackets of the theory. In addition, we disclose the gauge symmetries…
We revisit and construct new examples of supersymmetric 2D topological sigma models whose target space is a Poisson supermanifold. Inspired by the AKSZ construction of topological field theories, we follow a graded-geometric approach and…
Recently, the maximally-helicity-violating four-point form factor for the chiral stress-energy tensor in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills was computed to three loops at the level of the symbol associated with multiple polylogarithms.…
The one-loop Euclidean partition function on the sphere is known to exhibit a nontrivial phase for massless fields of spin greater than one. Such a phase appears to be in tension with a state counting interpretation of the partition…
It is not understood whether scale-separated AdS vacua in string theory admit a holographic dual. A well-known class of such vacua is provided by the DGKT solutions of massive type IIA string theory, where scale separation arises from large…
We study the partial-wave expansion of residues of five-point tree-amplitude involving identical scalar particles in the external legs. We check the construction using massive spinor-helicity building blocks and by matching to the…
In this paper we have developed general algorithm for finding all orbifolds of Berglund-Hubsch-type Calabi-Yau manifolds and their mirrors. An explicit construction is formulated for finding all admissible deformations and groups defining…
This thesis develops a unified framework that reconstructs the full classical content of General Relativity from the classical limit of quantum scattering amplitudes. By interpreting the analytic structure of amplitudes as the…
We prove that any quantum field theory, or more generally any probability distribution over tempered distributions in $\mathbb{R}^d$, admits a neural network description with a countable infinity of parameters. As an example, we realize the…
Ghost inflation is a well-known framework in which cosmological fluctuations can generate enhanced primordial non-Gaussianity, typically of the equilateral type. In its original form, however, it is in tension with current observational…
