In the present work, we study different aspects of Lorentz and CPT symmetry violation in extended massless QED. By following the observation that the 2+1 dimensional Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory can be originated from the 3+1 dimensional…

We apply the average null energy condition to obtain upper bounds on the three-point function coefficients of stress tensors and a scalar operator, $\langle TT {\cal O } \rangle,$ in general CFTs. We also constrain the gravitational anomaly…

The ALEPH data on the (non-strange) vector and axial-vector spectral functions, extracted from tau-lepton decays, is used in order to search for evidence for a dimension-two contribution, $C_{2 V,A}$, to the Operator Product Expansion…

In this work we discuss an approach due to F. David to the geometry of world sheets of non-critical strings in quasiclassical approximation. The gravitational dressed conformal dimension is related to the scaling behavior of the two-point…

We study 2-point and 3-point functions in CFT at finite temperature for large dimension operators using holography. The 2-point function leads to a universal formula for the holographic free energy in $d$ dimensions in terms of the…

In the large N limit, conditions for the conformal invariance of the generalized Thirring model are derived, using two different approaches: the background field method and the Hamiltonian method based on an operator algebra, and the…

We study unitary conformal field theories with a unique stress tensor and at least one higher-spin conserved current in d>3 dimensions. We prove that every such theory contains an infinite number of higher-spin conserved currents of…

According to the standard classification of Conformal Quantum Field Theory (CQFT) in two dimensions, the massless continuum limit of the $O(2)$ model at the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition point should be given by the massless free…

Exotic quantum transport phenomena established in Josephson junctions (JJs) are reflected by a non-sinusoidal current-phase relation (CPR). The solidified approach to measure the CPR is via an asymmetric dc-SQUID with a reference JJ that…

We analyze the Carroll-Field-Jackiw (CFJ) modification of electrodynamics reformulated as the ordinary Maxwell theory with an additional special axion field. In this form, the CFJ model appears as a special case of the pre-metric approach…

We discuss the two-point functions of the U(1) current and energy-momentum tensor in certain gapped three-dimensional field theories, and show that the parity-odd part in both of these correlation functions is one-loop exact. In particular,…

The field-orientation dependent thermal conductivity of the heavy-fermion superconductor UPt$_3$ was measured down to very low temperatures and under magnetic fields throughout three distinct superconducting phases: A, B, and C phases. In…

We study 2D QCD with a fundamental fermion at small-$N$ using the recently proposed conformal basis approach. We find that effective conformal dominance still holds, namely that the spectrum converges efficiently, with high…

Conformal field theory (CFT) plays a key role in modern theoretical physics. Through CFT we describe real physical systems at criticality and fixed points of the renormalization group flow. It is also central in the study of quantum…

Conformal blocks play a central role in CFTs as the basic, theory-independent building blocks. However, only limited results are available concerning multipoint blocks associated with the global conformal group. In this paper, we…

Quantum electrodynamics in 2+1-dimensions (QED$_3$) is a strongly coupled conformal field theory (CFT) of a U(1) gauge field coupled to $2N$ two-component massless fermions. The $N=2$ CFT has been proposed as a ground state of the spin-1/2…

The unitary Fermi gas, by virtue of its description as a nonrelativistic conformal field theory, has proven an interesting system by which the quantum properties of CFT can be held to experimental verification. Here, we examine the…

Over the past few years three dimensional Quantum Electrodynamics (QED$_3$) has attracted a lot of attention, because it may be an effective theory for the underdoped and non-superconducting region of the phase diagram of high $T_c$ cuprate…

Conformal symmetry is broken in physical QCD; nevertheless, one can use conformal symmetry as a template, systematically correcting for its nonzero $\beta$ function as well as higher-twist effects. For example, commensurate scale relations…

We derive constraints on three-point functions involving the stress tensor, $T$, and a conserved $U(1)$ current, $j$, in 2+1 dimensional conformal field theories that violate parity, using conformal collider bounds introduced by Hofman and…
