Transverse spin in the light-ray OPE
Cyuan-Han Chang, Murat Kologlu, Petr Kravchuk +2
We study a product of null-integrated local operators and on the same null plane in a CFT. Such null-integrated operators transform like primaries i…
The light-ray OPE and conformal colliders
Murat Kologlu, Petr Kravchuk, David Simmons-Duffin +1
We derive a nonperturbative, convergent operator product expansion (OPE) for null-integrated operators on the same null plane in a CFT. The objects appearing in the expansion are l…
Shocks, Superconvergence, and a Stringy Equivalence Principle
Murat Kologlu, Petr Kravchuk, David Simmons-Duffin +1
We study propagation of a probe particle through a series of closely situated gravitational shocks. We argue that in any UV-complete theory of gravity the result does not depend on…
Bootstrapping the 3d Ising model at finite temperature
Luca Iliesiu, Murat Koloğlu, David Simmons-Duffin
We estimate thermal one-point functions in the 3d Ising CFT using the operator product expansion (OPE) and the Kubo-Martin-Schwinger (KMS) condition. Several operator dimensions an…
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.…
