The entropy of radiation for local quenches in higher dimensions

Lorenzo Bianchi, Andrea Mattiello, Jacopo Sisti

We investigate the real time dynamics of the radiation produced by a local quench in a -dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) with . Using the interpretation of the high…

Exploring Defects with Degrees of Freedom in Free Scalar CFTs

Vladimir Bashmakov, Jacopo Sisti

Defects in conformal field theories are interesting objects to study from both formal and applied points of view. In this paper, we construct conformal defects in free scalar field…

Boundaries in Free Higher Derivative Conformal Field Theories

Adam Chalabi, Christopher P. Herzog, Krishnendu Ray +3

We consider free higher derivative theories of scalars and Dirac fermions in the presence of a boundary in general dimension. We establish a method for finding consistent conformal…

Interacting conformal scalar in a wedge

Agnese Bissi, Parijat Dey, Jacopo Sisti +1

We study a class of two-point functions in a conformal field theory near a wedge. This is a set-up with two boundaries intersecting at an angle . We compute it as a solution to…

Weyl Anomalies of Four Dimensional Conformal Boundaries and Defects

Adam Chalabi, Christopher P. Herzog, Andy O'Bannon +2

Motivated by questions about quantum information and classification of quantum field theories, we consider Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) in spacetime dimension with a c…

Monodromy Defects in Free Field Theories

Lorenzo Bianchi, Adam Chalabi, Vladimír Procházka +2

We study co-dimension two monodromy defects in theories of conformally coupled scalars and free Dirac fermions in arbitrary dimensions. We characterise this family of conformal…

Holographic Entanglement Entropy of the Coulomb Branch

Adam Chalabi, S. Prem Kumar, Andy O'Bannon +3

We compute entanglement entropy (EE) of a spherical region in -dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in states described holographically by pr…

Central Charges of 2d Superconformal Defects

Adam Chalabi, Andy O'Bannon, Brandon Robinson +1

In conformal field theories (CFTs) of dimension , two-dimensional (2d) conformal defects are characterised in part by central charges defined via the defect's contribution to…
