We argue that interacting conformal line defects in free quantum field theories can exist, provided that inversion symmetry is broken. Important for our demonstration is the existence of a special cross ratio for bulk-defect-defect three…

We present the beta functions of gauge and Yukawa couplings in general four-dimensional quantum field theory, at four and three loops, respectively. The essence of our approach is fixing unknown coefficients in the most general ansatz for…

We present a collection of numerical bootstrap computations for 3d CFTs with a U(1) global symmetry. We test the accuracy of our method and fix conventions through a computation of bounds on the OPE coefficients for low-lying operators in…

We compute the contribution to the anomalous dimension of the twist-2 operators in N=4 SYM theory, which is proportional to the number of fermion loops inside Feynman diagrams or, formally, to the number of fermions. The result was obtained…

We present the phase diagram and associated fixed points for a wide class of Gauge-Yukawa theories in $d=4+\epsilon$ dimensions. The theories we investigate involve non-abelian gauge fields, fermions and scalars in the Veneziano-Witten…

In a recent publication we have investigated the spectrum of anomalous dimensions for arbitrary composite operators in the critical N-vector model in 4-epsilon dimensions. We could establish properties like upper and lower bounds for the…

Two and three point functions of composite operators are analysed with regard to (logarithmically) divergent contact terms. Using the renormalisation group of dimensional regularisation it is established that the divergences are governed by…

We study the conformal properties of pseudo-scalar (parity-odd) operators in four-dimensional field theory. Such operators include the topological term in a gauge theory and the Yukawa coupling. We show that a single operator of this type…

We investigate a family of four-dimensional quantum field theories with weakly interacting ultraviolet fixed points up to four loop order in perturbation theory. Key new ingredients are the three loop gauge contributions to quartic scalar…

The properties of gauge-invariant composite operators and their correlation functions in N=4 SYM are discussed in the analytic superspace formalism. A complete classification of the different types of operators in the theory is given.…

The field equations of the auxiliary fields are nonlinear and free of derivatives. Hence, it is argued, a Legendre transform to generate the 1PI Generating Functionals is not correct for the auxiliary fields. A corrected formulation of the…

We derive the complete set of two-loop anomalous dimensions describing the mixing of four-fermion operators in the Low Energy Effective Field Theory (LEFT). The calculation is performed in Naive Dimensional Regularization with anticommuting…

The space of local operators in three-dimensional quantum electrodynamics contains monopole operators that create $n$ units of gauge flux emanating from the insertion point. This paper uses the state-operator correspondence to calculate the…

We consider the evolution of quantum fermi fields in Minkowski gauge field backgrounds. Our motivation is the study of anomalous fermion number violating processes. We derive selection rules for fermion scattering amplitudes which relate…

We show that an integrable four-dimensional non-unitary field theory that was recently proposed as a certain limit of the $\gamma_i$-deformed $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM theory is incomplete and not conformal -- not even in the planar limit. We…

For a long time, the predictive limits of perturbative quantum field theory have been limited by our inability to carry out loop calculations to arbitrarily high order, which become increasingly complex as the order of perturbation theory…

We study the effect of short range interactions in three dimensional nodal-line semimetals with linear band crossings. We analyze the Yukawa theories for gapped instabilities in the charge, spin and superconducting channels using the…

We analyze $(2+1)$-dimensional vector-vector type four-Fermi interaction (Thirring) model in the framework of the $1/N$ expansion. By solving the Dyson-Schwinger equation in the large-$N$ limit, we show that in the two-component formalism…

The decoherence mechanism is believed to be possibly connected to the quantum to classical transition of the primordial cosmological perturbations in the early universe. In this paper, we extend our previous analysis on decoherence in a…

We consider non-planar one-loop anomalous dimensions in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and its marginally deformed analogues. Using the basis of Bethe states, we compute matrix elements of the dilatation operator and find…
