ANEC on stress-tensor states in perturbative theory
Teresa Bautista, Lorenzo Casarin
We evaluate the Average Null Energy Condition (ANEC) on momentum eigenstates generated by the stress tensor in perturbative and general spacetime dimension. We first comp…
Boundary timelike Liouville theory: bulk 1-point & boundary 2-point functions
Teresa Bautista, Aditya Bawane
We consider timelike Liouville theory with FZZT-like boundary conditions. The bulk one-point and boundary two-point structure constants on a disk are derived using bootstrap. We fi…
The two-sphere partition function in two-dimensional quantum gravity
Dionysios Anninos, Teresa Bautista, Beatrix Mühlmann
We study the Euclidean path integral of two-dimensional quantum gravity with positive cosmological constant coupled to conformal matter with large and positive central charge. The…
ANEC in theory
Teresa Bautista, Lorenzo Casarin, Hadi Godazgar
Motivated by the goal of applying the average null energy condition (ANEC) to renormalisation group flows, we calculate in theory the expectation value of the ANEC operator…
BRST cohomology of timelike Liouville theory
Teresa Bautista, Harold Erbin, Matěj Kudrna
We compute the Hermitian sector of the relative BRST cohomology of the spacelike and timelike Liouville theories with generic real central charge in each case, coupled to a s…
Lorentzian CFT 3-point functions in momentum space
Teresa Bautista, Hadi Godazgar
In a conformal field theory, two and three-point functions of scalar operators and conserved currents are completely determined, up to constants, by conformal invariance. The expre…
Quantum Gravity from Timelike Liouville theory
Teresa Bautista, Atish Dabholkar, Harold Erbin
A proper definition of the path integral of quantum gravity has been a long-standing puzzle because the Weyl factor of the Euclidean metric has a wrong-sign kinetic term. We propos…
Nonlocal Quantum Effective Actions in Weyl-Flat Spacetimes
Teresa Bautista, André Benevides, Atish Dabholkar
Virtual massless particles in quantum loops lead to nonlocal effects which can have interesting consequences, for example, for primordial magnetogenesis in cosmology or for computi…
Quantum Cosmology in Four Dimensions
Teresa Bautista, André Benevides, Atish Dabholkar +1
We analyze the cosmological solutions to the recently proposed nonlocal quantum effective action for gravity with a cosmological term. We show that the vacuum energy decays with a…
Quantum Cosmology Near Two Dimensions
Teresa Bautista, Atish Dabholkar
We consider a Weyl-invariant formulation of gravity with a cosmological constant in d-dimensional spacetime and show that near two dimensions the classical action reduces to the ti…
