Conformal field theory (CFT) with the central charge c=1 is important both in the field theory and in the condensed matter physics, since it has the continuous internal symmetry (U(1) or SU(2)) and a marginal operator, and it is an…
The $J\bar T$ deformation, built from the components of the stress tensor and of a $U(1)$ current, is a universal irrelevant deformation of two-dimensional CFTs that preserves the left-moving conformal symmetry, while breaking locality on…
Conformal defects describe the universal behaviors of a conformal field theory (CFT) in the presence of a boundary or more general impurities. The coupled critical system is characterized by new conformal anomalies which are analogous to,…
We consider the dimensional reduction of a CFT, breaking multiplets of the d-dimensional conformal group SO(d+1,1) up into multiplets of SO(d,1). This leads to an expansion of d-dimensional conformal blocks in terms of blocks in d-1…
We find classes of driven conformal field theories (CFT) in d + 1 dimensions with d > 1, whose quench and Floquet dynamics can be computed exactly. The setup is suitable for studying periodic drives, consisting of square pulse protocols for…
We continue our study of $\lambda$-deformed $\sigma$-models by setting up a $1/k$ perturbative expansion around the free field point for cosets, in particular for the $\lambda$-deformed $SU(2)/U(1)$ coset CFT. We construct an interacting…
We derive an explicit form of a family of four-point Neveu-Schwarz blocks with $\hat c =1,$ external weights $\Delta_i = 1/8$ and arbitrary intermediate weight. The derivation is based on a set of identities obeyed in the free superscalar…
In the present paper, degeneration phenomena in conformal field theories are studied. For this purpose, a notion of convergent sequences of CFTs is introduced. Properties of the resulting limit structure are used to associate geometric…
We initiate the classification of unitary superconformal defects in unitary superconformal field theories (SCFT) of diverse spacetime dimensions $3\leq d \leq 6$. Our method explores general constraints from the defect superconformal…
We propose a two-parameter family of modular invariant partition functions of two-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) holographically dual to pure three-dimensional gravity in anti de Sitter space. Our two parameters control the…
In frames of dS/CFT correspondence suggested by Strominger we calculate holographic conformal anomaly for dual euclidean CFT. The holographic renormalization group method is used for this purpose. It is explicitly demonstrated that…
Some one- and two-parametric deformations of U[sl(2)] and their representations are considered. Interestingly, a newly introduced two-parametric deformation admits a class of infinite - dimensional representations which have no classical…
We present a unified group-theoretical derivation of the Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) on the circle $\mathbb S^1$ and the real line $\mathbb{R}$, following the general formalism of Coherent States (CS) associated to unitary square…
We initiate a study of the boundary version of the square-lattice $Q$-state Potts antiferromagnet, with $Q \in [0,4]$ real, motivated by the fact that the continuum limit of the corresponding bulk model is a non-compact CFT, closely related…
There is no known obstructions, but we have not been aware of any concrete examples, either. The Wess-Zumino consistency condition for the conformal anomaly says that $a$ cannot change but does not say anything about $c$. In supersymmetric…
We study an $O(N)$ invariant surface defect in the Wilson-Fisher conformal field theory (CFT) in $d=4-\epsilon$ dimensions. This defect is defined by mass deformation on a two-dimensional surface that generates localized disorder and is…
We explore $T \overline T$ deformations of Warped Conformal Field Theories (WCFTs) in two dimensions as examples of $T\overline T$ deformed non-relativistic quantum field theories. WCFTs are quantum field theories with a…
We describe new non-supersymmetric conformal field theories in three and four dimensions, using the CFT/AdS correspondence. In order to believe in their existence at large N_c and strong 't Hooft coupling, we explicitly check the stability…
In the space of C^k piecewise expanding unimodal maps, k>=1, we characterize the C^1 smooth families of maps where the topological dynamics does not change (the "smooth deformations") as the families tangent to a continuous distribution of…
By making use of conformal mapping, we construct various time-evolution operators in (1+1) dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs), which take the form $\int dx\, f(x) \mathcal{H}(x)$, where $\mathcal{H}(x)$ is the Hamiltonian density…
