We study the free energy of four-dimensional CFTs on deformed spheres. For generic nonsupersymmetric CFTs only the coefficient of the logarithmic divergence in the free energy is physical, which is an extremum for the round sphere. We then…
A new method to compute the symplectic structure of a quantum field theory with non trivial boundary conditions is proposed. Following the suggestion in \cite{ho:gnus, ardalan}, we regard that the boundary conditions are second class…
We give a short and self-contained proof of the Boundary Harnack inequality for a class of domains satisfying some geometric conditions given in terms of a state function that behaves as the distance function to the boundary, is subharmonic…
Higher derivative corrections are ubiquitous in effective field theories, which seemingly introduces new degrees of freedom at successive order. This is actually an artefact of the implicit local derivative expansion defining effective…
Based on bulk reconstruction from the finite boundary of the Bruhat-Tits tree, the boundary effective theory is obtained after integrating out fields outside this boundary. According to the $~p$-adic version of Anti-de Sitter/Conformal…
Boundary conditions changing operators have played an important role in conformal field theory. Here, we study their equivalent in the case where a mass scale is introduced, in an integrable way, either in the bulk or at the boundary. More…
The trace anomaly of conformal field theories in four dimensions is characterized by '$a$' and '$c$'-functions. The scaling properties of the effective action of a CFT in the presence of boundaries is shown to be determined by $a$, $c$ and…
We study the boundary behavior of solutions to parabolic double-phase equations through the celebrated Wiener's sufficiency criterion. The analysis is conducted for cylindrical domains and the regularity up to the lateral boundary is shown…
By carefully analyzing the radial part of the wave-equation for a scalar field in AdS, we show that for a particular range of boundary conditions on the scalar field, the radial spectrum contains a bound state. Using the AdS/CFT…
Motivated by various applications, this article develops the notion of boundary control for Maxwell's equations in the frequency domain. Surface curl is shown to be the appropriate regularization in order for the optimal control problem to…
By writing the flow equations for the continuum Legendre effective action (a.k.a. Helmholtz free energy) with respect to a particular form of smooth cutoff, and performing a derivative expansion up to some maximum order, a set of…
The trace anomaly for a conformally invariant scalar field theory on a curved manifold of positive constant curvature with boundary is considered. In the context of a perturbative evaluation of the theory's effective action explicit…
We study the transmission problem in bounded domains with dissipative boundary conditions. Under some natural assumptions, we prove uniform bounds of the corresponding resolvents on the real axis at high frequency, and as a consequence, we…
Motivated by recently progresses in the study of BCFW recursion relation with nonzero boundary contributions for theories with scalars and fermions\cite{Bofeng}, in this short note we continue the study of boundary contributions of gauge…
The thesis studies linear and semilinear Dirichlet problems driven by different fractional Laplacians. The boundary data can be smooth functions or also Radon measures. The goal is to classify the solutions which have a singularity on the…
In this article, we extend our study on a new class of modular Hamiltonians on an interval attached to the origin on the semi-infinite line, introduced in a recent work dedicated to scalar fields. Here, we shift our attention to fermions…
We study obstacle problems governed by two distinct types of diffusion operators involving interacting free boundaries. We obtain a somewhat surprising coupling property, leading to a comprehensive analysis of the free boundary. More…
Reparametrization invariant theories have a vanishing Hamiltonian and enforce their dynamics through a constraint. We specifically choose the Dirac procedure of quantization before the introduction of constraints. Consequently, for field…
Conformal fields with boundaries give rise to rich critical phenomena that can reveal information about the underlying conformality. While most existing studies focus on Hermitian systems, here we explore boundary critical phenomena in a…
We find an analog of Zamolodchikov's c-theorem for disordered two dimensional noninteracting systems in their supersymmetric representation. For this purpose we introduce a new parameter b which flows along the renormalization group…
