The singlet sector of the $O(N)$ $\phi^4$-model in AdS$_4$ at large-$N$, gives rise to a dual conformal field theory on the conformal boundary of AdS$_4$, which is a deformation of the generalized free field. We identify and compute an…

The scalar field exchange diagram for the correlation function of four scalar operators is evaluated in anti-de Sitter space, $AdS_{d+1}$. The conformal dimensions $\Delta_i$, $i=1,...,4$ of the scalar operators and the dimension $\Delta$…

We study at zero temperature a microscopic quantum spin-1 model on the fuzzy sphere that realizes the $O(2)$ Wilson-Fisher conformal field theory (CFT) in $(2+1)$-dimensional spacetime at a quantum critical point. Here, we use the…

We continue the study of the bosonic $O(N)^3$ model with quartic interactions and long-range propagator. The symmetry group allows for three distinct invariant $\phi^4$ composite operators, known as tetrahedron, pillow and double-trace. As…

(Quasi)conformal scaling of composite operators from a strongly coupled EWSB dynamics helps to produce the characteristic hierarchies exhibited by the flavour couplings of the SM. It is however crucial to ensure that specific models satisfy…

We present a dispersion relation in conformal field theory which expresses the four point function as an integral over its single discontinuity. Exploiting the analytic properties of the OPE and crossing symmetry of the correlator, we show…

We show how conformal partial waves (or conformal blocks) of spinor/tensor correlators can be related to each other by means of differential operators in four dimensional conformal field theories. We explicitly construct such differential…

Given a critical quantum spin chain described by a conformal field theory (CFT) at long distances, it is crucial to understand the universal conformal data. One most important ingredient is the operator product expansion (OPE) coefficients,…

The renormalization group functions for six dimensional scalar $\phi^3$ theory with an $F_4$ symmetry are provided at four loops in the modified minimal subtraction (MSbar) scheme. Aside from the anomalous dimension of $\phi$ and the…

An alternative model to the trivial $\phi^4$-theory of the standard model of weak interactions is suggested, which embodies the Higgs-mechanism, but is free of the conceptual problems of standard $\phi ^4$-theory. We propose a N-component,…

For real bounded functions \Phi and \Psi of compact support, we prove the norm resolvent convergence, as \epsilon and \nu tend to 0, of a family of one-dimensional Schroedinger operators on the line of the form S_{\epsilon, \nu}=…

Defects are common in physical systems with boundaries, impurities or extensive measurements. The interaction between bulk and defect can lead to rich physical phenomena. Defects in gapless phases of matter with conformal symmetry usually…

The free Maxwell theory in D<>4 dimensions provides a physical example of a unitary, scale invariant theory which is NOT conformally invariant. The easiest way to see this is that the field strength operator F_mn is neither a primary nor a…

We determine the scaling dimensions in the boundary $\mathsf{CFT}_{d}$ corresponding to the $\mathsf{O}(N)$ model in $\mathsf{EAdS}_{d+1}$. The $\mathsf{CFT}$ data accessible to the 4-point boundary correlator of fundamental fields are…

Motivated by questions about quantum information and classification of quantum field theories, we consider Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) in spacetime dimension $d\geq 5$ with a conformally-invariant spatial boundary (BCFTs) or…

Scalar-fermion models, such as the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model, admit natural $1d$ defects given by the exponential of a scalar field integrated along a straight line. In $4-\varepsilon$ dimensions the defect coupling is weakly relevant and…

There is a special set of massless four-dimensional gauge theories which admit local and gauge-anomaly-free uplifts to twistor space; we call such theories twistorial. In twistorial theories, generalized towers of soft modes (including…

We revisit the order $\varepsilon$ dilatation operator of the Wilson-Fisher fixed point obtained by Kehrein, Pismak, and Wegner in light of recent results in conformal field theory. Our approach is algebraic and based only on symmetry…

In this work, we derive an upper bound on energetic quantities, namely vacuum energy and free energy, for static solutions of Einstein-Scalar theory in four dimensional asymptotically locally Anti-de Sitter(AlAdS) spacetime with a…

Using the numerical modular bootstrap, we constrain the space of 1+1d CFTs with a finite non-invertible global symmetry described by a fusion category $\mathcal{C}$. We derive universal and rigorous upper bounds on the lightest…
