On a given Riemann surface, we construct a path integral based on the Liouville action functional with imaginary parameters. The construction relies on the compactified Gaussian Free Field (GFF), which we perturb with a curvature term and…

Holographic bounds have been derived using explicitly gravitational arguments. Motivated by explicit constructions of bulk wavepackets from observables in the boundary CFT, we derive a holographic bound in the context of the gauge/gravity…

We construct a holographic superconductor model, based on a gravity theory, which exhibits novel metal-insulator transitions. We investigate the condition for the condensation of the scalar field over the parameter space, and then focus on…

A new approach for analyzing waveguide junctions containing conductive cylindrical objects is proposed. The algorithm is based on mode matching technique using local projection functions, which improves the numerical conditioning of the…

We present new numerical results on the space of local, unitary, parity-preserving conformal field theories (CFTs) in three dimensions from the stress tensor bootstrap. In bounds maximizing certain OPE coefficients, we find a plethora of…

Following arXiv:1501.03019 [hep-th], we study de Sitter space and spherical subregions on a constant boundary Euclidean time slice of the future boundary in the Poincare slicing. We show that as in that case, complex extremal surfaces exist…

In this work, we study non-equilibrium dynamics in Floquet conformal field theories (CFTs) in 1+1D, in which the driving Hamiltonian involves the energy-momentum density spatially modulated by an arbitrary smooth function. This generalizes…

We explore properties of path integral complexity in field theories on time dependent backgrounds using its dual description in terms of Hartle-Hawking wavefunctions. In particular, we consider boundary theories with time dependent…

We present a general perturbative effective field theory (EFT) description of galaxy shape correlations, which are commonly known as intrinsic alignments. This rigorous approach extends current analytical modelling strategies in that it…

Using numerical holography, we study the collision, at non-zero impact parameter, of bounded, localized distributions of energy density chosen to mimic relativistic heavy ion collisions, in strongly coupled N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills…

We use the holographic methods to calculate the entanglement entropy for field theories modified by $T\bar{T}$ insertion. Based on the available holographic proposals, this calculation reduces to the holographic computations in AdS with…

The Lorentzian path integral for the wave function of the Universe is only conditionally convergent and thus requires a well-defined prescription. The Picard-Lefschetz approach ensures convergence through contour deformation, but it has…

An important conjecture within the AdS/CFT correspondence relates holographic spacetime to the quantum computational complexity of the dual quantum field theory. However, the quantitative understanding of this relation is still an open…

The behavior of holographic CFTs is constrained by the existence of a bulk dual geometry. For example, in (2+1)-dimensional holographic CFTs living on a static spacetime with compact spatial slices, the vacuum energy must be nonpositive,…

In this paper we discuss geodesic Witten diagrams in generic holographic conformal field theories with boundary or defect. Boundary CFTs allow two different decompositions of two-point functions into conformal blocks: boundary channel and…

Thus far in the search for, and classification of, `physical' modular invariant partition functions $\sum N_{LR}\,\c_L\,\C_R$ the attention has been focused on the {\it symmetric} case where the holomorphic and anti-holomorphic sectors, and…

We study analytic properties of thermal spectral functions of holographic CFTs, examining both their (a) exact properties at finite momentum and (b) asymptotics at large momentum. For even-dimensional holographic CFTs on Minkowski spacetime…

This thesis mainly focuses on the Hawking radiation (HR) evacuating from the surface of the objects that have earned a reputation as the most extraordinary objects existing so far; the black holes (BHs). Throughout this study, quantum…

This is the first in a series of articles about recovering the full algebraic structure of a boundary conformal field theory (CFT) from the scaling limit of the critical Ising model in slit-strip geometry. Here, we introduce spaces of…

We propose an explicitly calculable example of holography on 3-dimensional de Sitter space by providing a prescription to analytic continue a higher-spin holography on 3-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. Applying the de Sitter holography,…
