On The Triviality Of -Modified Conformal Vector Fields
Rahul Poddar, Ramesh Sharma
We prove that a compact Riemannian manifold does not admit any non-trivial -modified homothetic vector fields. In the corresponding case of an -modified conformal vector…
Extended Solitons of the Ambient Obstruction Flow
Erin Griffin, Rahul Poddar, Ramesh Sharma +1
In this paper we expand on the work of the first author on ambient obstruction solitons, which are self-similar solutions to the ambient obstruction flow. Our main result is to sho…
-Deformations of Holographic Warped CFTs
Rahul Poddar
We explore deformations of Warped Conformal Field Theories (WCFTs) in two dimensions as examples of deformed non-relativistic quantum field theories.…
A Selberg zeta function for warped AdS black holes
Victoria L. Martin, Rahul Poddar, Agla Þórarinsdóttir
The Selberg zeta function and trace formula are powerful tools used to calculate kinetic operator spectra and quasinormal modes on hyperbolic quotient spacetimes. In this article,…
Universal Correlators and Novel Cosets in 2d RCFT
Sunil Mukhi, Rahul Poddar
The two-character level-1 WZW models corresponding to Lie algebras in the Cvitanović-Deligne series have been argued to form coset pairs with respect…
Rational CFT With Three Characters: The Quasi-Character Approach
Sunil Mukhi, Rahul Poddar, Palash Singh
Quasi-characters are vector-valued modular functions having an integral, but not necessarily positive, q-expansion. Using modular differential equations, a complete classification…
Contour Integrals and the Modular S-Matrix
Sunil Mukhi, Rahul Poddar, Palash Singh
We investigate a conjecture to describe the characters of large families of RCFT's in terms of contour integrals of Feigin-Fuchs type. We provide a simple algorithm to determine th…
