We consider a symmetric scalar theory with quartic coupling in 2- and 3-dimensions and compare the self-consistent 4-point vertex obtained from the 4PI effective action with the Bethe-Salpeter 4-vertex from 2PI effective action. At zero…

We compute tree-level celestial operator product expansions (OPE) in a bosonic sub-sector of the Berkovits-Witten conformal supergravity from the scattering amplitudes in the MHV configuration. While the OPE between a leading soft graviton…

The construction of conformal blocks for the analysis of multipoint correlation functions with $N > 4$ local field insertions is an important open problem in higher dimensional conformal field theory. This is the first in a series of papers…

Using tools from computable analysis we develop a notion of effectiveness for general dynamical systems as those group actions on arbitrary spaces that contain a computable representative in their topological conjugacy class. Most natural…

The Schwinger representation gives a systematic procedure for recasting large N field theory amplitudes as integrals over closed string moduli space. This procedure has recently been applied to a class of free field four point functions by…

We explore the dynamical behavior at and near a special class of two-dimensional quantum critical points. Each is a conformal quantum critical point (CQCP), where in the scaling limit the equal-time correlators are those of a…

We consider unitary CFTs with continuous global symmetries in $d>2$. We consider a state created by the lightest operator of large charge $Q \gg 1$ and analyze the correlator of two light charged operators in this state. We assume that the…

Coherent states provide a natural connection of quantum systems to their classical limit and are employed in various fields of physics. Here we derive general systematic expansions, with respect to quantum parameters, of expectation values…

We study the parity-odd sector of 3-point functions comprising of scalar operators and conserved currents in conformal field theories in momentum space. We use momentum space conformal Ward identities as well as spin-raising and…

In the paper, the family of conformal four-point ladder diagrams in arbitrary space-time dimensions is considered. We use the representation obtained via explicit calculation using the operator approach and conformal quantum mechanics to…

Classical gravitational evolution admits an elegant and compact re-expression in terms of gauge covariant generalizations of Lie derivatives with respect to a spatial phase space dependent $su(2)$ valued vector field called the Electric…

Timelike Liouville field theory is a candidate model for positive curvature two-dimensional quantum gravity, but a mathematically controlled Lorentzian formulation has remained elusive. In this paper we construct the theory on the cylinder…

Certain closed-universe big-bang/big-crunch cosmological spacetimes may be obtained by analytic continuation from asymptotically AdS Euclidean wormholes, as emphasized by Maldacena and Maoz. We investigate how these Euclidean wormhole…

We continue our study of multipoint correlators of scalar fields on the $1d$ defect CFT generated by inserting operators along the Maldacena-Wilson line in $\mathcal{N} = 4$ SYM. We present a weak-coupling recursion relation that captures…

Exact operator quantization is perfomed of a model of two-dimensional dilaton gravity in Lorentzian spacetime, classically equivalent to the one proposed by Callan, Giddings, Harvey and Strominger, in the special case with 24 massless…

Open quantum systems interacting with an environment exhibit dynamics described by the combination of dissipation and coherent Hamiltonian evolution. Taken together, these effects are captured by a Liouvillian superoperator. The…

We find the general solution of the conformal Ward identities for scalar $n$-point functions in momentum space and in general dimension. The solution is given in terms of integrals over $(n-1)$-simplices in momentum space. The $n$ operators…

We show that correlators of local operators in four dimensional free scalar field theory can be expressed in terms of amplitudes in a two dimensional topological field theory (TFT2). We describe the state space of the TFT2, which has…

For a periodically driven quantum system an effective time-independent Hamiltonian is derived with an eigen-energy spectrum, which in the regime of large driving frequencies approximates the quasi-energies of the corresponding Floquet…

Coherent or exact equations of motion for a post-Newtonian Lagrangian formalism are the Euler-Lagrange equations without any terms truncated. They naturally conserve energy {and} angular momentum. Doubling the phase-space variables of…
