Surface operators are among the most important observables of the 6d $\mathcal{N} = (2,0)$ theory. Here we apply the tools of defect CFT to study local operator insertions into the 1/2-BPS plane. We first relate the 2-point function of the…

In the present work we considered Galilean conformal algebras (GCA), which arises as a contraction relativistic conformal algebras ($x_i\rightarrow \epsilon x_i$, $t\rightarrow t$, $\epsilon \rightarrow 0$). We can use the Galilean…

We construct a class of extended operators in the cohomology of a pair of twisted Schur supercharges of 4d N=2 SCFTs. The extended operators are constructed from the local operators in this cohomology -- the Schur operators -- by a version…

We present a calculation of three point functions for a class of chiral operators, including the primary ones, in d = 3, N = 8; d = 6, N = (2,0) and d = 4, N = 4 superconformal field theories at large N. These theories are related to the…

The joint spectral theory of a system of pairwise commuting self-adjoint left-invariant differential operators L_1,...,L_n on a connected Lie group G is studied, under the hypothesis that the algebra generated by them contains a "weighted…

We perform a holographic renormalization of cascading gauge theories. Specifically, we find the counter-terms that need to be added to the gravitational action of the backgrounds dual to the cascading theory of Klebanov and Tseytlin,…

We compute 4-point correlators in $\mathcal{N} = 4$ $SU(N)$ Super-Yang-Mills with both single and double-particle $1/2$-BPS operators in the regime of large 't Hooft coupling and large $N$. In particular we give explicit expressions up to…

We study two-point correlation functions of chiral/anti-chiral operators in SU(N) $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories with massless hyper-multiplets in a representation $\mathcal{R}$ associated with a non-vanishing $\beta$-function. Using…

We introduce simple group-theoretic techniques for classifying conformally-invariant tensor-structures. With them, we classify tensor structures of general n-point functions of non-conserved operators, and $n\geq 4$-point functions of…

We study a fourth-order derivative scalar field configuration in a fixed Lifshitz background. Using an auxiliary field we rewrite the equations of motion as two coupled second order equations. We specialize to the limit that the mass of the…

In 1993, Schellekens obtained a list of possible 71 Lie algebras of holomorphic vertex operator algebras with central charge 24. However, not all cases are known to exist. The aim of this article is to construct new holomorphic vertex…

We discuss holography for Schrodinger solutions of both topologically massive gravity in three dimensions and massive vector theories in (d+1) dimensions. In both cases the dual field theory can be viewed as a d-dimensional conformal field…

We consider Toda field theories in a classical Euclidean $AdS_2$ background. We compute the four-point functions of boundary operators in the $a_1$, $a_2$ and $b_2$ Toda field theories. They take the same form as the four-point functions of…

Trivially-acting symmetries in two-dimensional conformal field theory include twist fields of dimension zero which are local topological operators. We investigate the consequences of regarding these operators as part of the global symmetry…

In this work, we propose a novel holographic method for computing correlation functions of operators in conformal field theories. This method refines previous approaches and is specifically aimed at being applied to heavy operators. For…

We calculate the vacuum expectation values of the stress-energy bitensor of a minimally coupled massless scalar field in anti-de Sitter (AdS) spaces. These correlators, also known as the noise kernel, act as sources in the Einstein-Langevin…

We study a class of non-protected local composite operators which occur in the R symmetry singlet channel of the OPE of two stress-tensor multiplets in {\cal N}=4 SYM. At tree level these are quadrilinear scalar dimension four operators,…

We present some general theorems about operator algebras that are algebras of functions on sets, including theories of local algebras, residually finite dimensional operator algebras and algebras that can be represented as the scalar…

We construct a new class of differential operators that naturally act on AdS harmonic functions. These are weight shifting operators that change the spin and dimension of AdS representations. Together with CFT weight shifting operators, the…

We generalize the embedding formalism for conformal field theories to the case of general operators with mixed symmetry. The index-free notation encoding symmetric tensors as polynomials in an auxiliary polarization vector is extended to…
