Irrational CFTs from coupled anyon chains with non-invertible symmetries?

António Antunes, Junchen Rong

Irrational CFTs in 1+1d with a discrete spectrum and no conserved currents other than the stress-tensor are expected to be generic, unsolvable by standard methods, and hard to cons…

Local/Short-range conformal field theories from long-range perturbation theory

Junchen Rong

We show that by imposing the conformal Wald identity, one can extract conformal data of the corresponding short-range/local CFT from the long-range perturbation theory. We first ap…
