Quantum Regge Trajectories and the Virasoro Analytic Bootstrap
Scott Collier, Yan Gobeil, Henry Maxfield +1
Every conformal field theory (CFT) above two dimensions contains an infinite set of Regge trajectories of local operators which, at large spin, asymptote to "double-twist" composit…
Genus-One String Amplitudes from Conformal Field Theory
Luis F. Alday, Agnese Bissi, Eric Perlmutter
We explore and exploit the relation between non-planar correlators in super-Yang-Mills, and higher-genus closed string amplitudes in type IIB string theory. By conform…
-dimensional SYK, AdS Loops, and Symbols
Junyu Liu, Eric Perlmutter, Vladimir Rosenhaus +1
We study the symbol for the conformal group, and its appearance in three seemingly unrelated contexts: the SYK model, conformal representation theory, and perturbative amplitu…
M-Theory Reconstruction from (2,0) CFT and the Chiral Algebra Conjecture
Shai M. Chester, Eric Perlmutter
We study various aspects of the M-theory uplift of the series of CFTs in 6d, which describe the worldvolume theory of M5 branes in flat space. We show how kno…
The Conformal Bootstrap at Finite Temperature
Luca Iliesiu, Murat Koloğlu, Raghu Mahajan +2
We initiate an approach to constraining conformal field theory (CFT) data at finite temperature using methods inspired by the conformal bootstrap for vacuum correlation functions.…
