Anchored random clusters and SLE excursions
Federico Camia, Valentino F. Foit, Rongvoram Nivesvivat
We provide a pedagogical review of CFT techniques to compute certain Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) observables in the upper half-plane. The approach relies on the ability to expr…
Group Averaging for Physics Applications: Accuracy Improvements at Zero Training Cost
Valentino F. Foit, David W. Hogg, Soledad Villar
Many machine learning tasks in the natural sciences are precisely equivariant to particular symmetries. Nonetheless, equivariant methods are often not employed, perhaps because tra…
The Brownian loop soup stress-energy tensor
Federico Camia, Valentino F. Foit, Alberto Gandolfi +1
The Brownian loop soup (BLS) is a conformally invariant statistical ensemble of random loops in two dimensions characterized by an intensity . Recently, we constructed familie…
Scalar conformal primary fields in the Brownian loop soup
Federico Camia, Valentino F. Foit, Alberto Gandolfi +1
The Brownian loop soup is a conformally invariant statistical ensemble of random loops in two dimensions characterized by an intensity , with central charge . Recent pr…
New Recipes for Brownian Loop Soups
Valentino F. Foit, Matthew Kleban
We define a large new class of conformal primary operators in the ensemble of Brownian loops in two dimensions known as the ``Brownian loop soup,'' and compute their correlation fu…
Exact Correlation Functions in the Brownian Loop Soup
Federico Camia, Valentino F. Foit, Alberto Gandolfi +1
We compute analytically and in closed form the four-point correlation function in the plane, and the two-point correlation function in the upper half-plane, of layering vertex oper…
Bulk reconstruction for spinor fields in AdS/CFT
Valentino F. Foit, Daniel Kabat, Gilad Lifschytz
We develop the representation of free spinor fields in the bulk of Lorentzian anti-de Sitter space in terms of smeared operators in the dual conformal field theory. To do this we e…
Gravitational wave echoes from black hole area quantization
Vitor Cardoso, Valentino F. Foit, Matthew Kleban
Gravitational-wave astronomy has the potential to substantially advance our knowledge of the cosmos, from the most powerful astrophysical engines to the initial stages of our unive…
type deformation in the presence of a boundary
Juan Pablo Babaro, Valentino F. Foit, Gaston Giribet +1
We continue the study of a recently proposed solvable irrelevant deformation of an AdS/CFT correspondence that leads in the UV to a theory with Hagedorn spectrum. This can…
Testing Quantum Black Holes with Gravitational Waves
Valentino F. Foit, Matthew Kleban
We argue that near-future detections of gravitational waves from merging black hole binaries can test a long-standing proposal, originally due Bekenstein and Mukhanov, that the are…
Self-similar Evaporation and Collapse in the Quantum Portrait of Black Holes
Valentino F. Foit, Nico Wintergerst
We investigate Hawking evaporation in a recently suggested picture in which black holes are Bose condensates of gravitons at a quantum critical point. There, evaporation of a black…
