Direct Experimental Test of Conformal Invariance via Grazing Scattering: A Proposal for X-ray and Neutron Experiments
Alessandro Podo, Slava Rychkov
We propose a test of conformal invariance in critical phenomena based on the study of a two-point correlation function in the presence of a boundary. This two-point function can be…
Naturalness of vanishing black-hole tides
Julio Parra-Martinez, Alessandro Podo
We provide a symmetry argument for the vanishing and non-renormalization of static Love numbers for spherically symmetric black holes at full nonlinear order in four-dimensional Ge…
Hadamard tails from flat-space perturbation theory
Ameya Chavda, Alberto Nicolis, Alessandro Podo +1
The short-distance singular structure of the two-point function of a free scalar field in curved spacetime has a universal behavior that characterizes well-behaved states (called H…
Microcausality without Lorentz invariance
Lam Hui, Alberto Nicolis, Alessandro Podo +1
Microcausality -- the vanishing of commutators outside the lightcone -- is a fundamental property of relativistic quantum field theories. We derive its implications for two-point f…
-matrix positivity without Lorentz invariance: a case study
Lam Hui, Ioanna Kourkoulou, Alberto Nicolis +2
We investigate the analytic structure of scattering amplitudes in theories in which Lorentz invariance is spontaneously broken. We do so by computing and studying the S-matrix for…
Fermions at finite density in the path integral approach
Alessandro Podo, Luca Santoni
We study relativistic fermionic systems in spacetime dimensions at finite chemical potential and zero temperature, from a path-integral point of view. We show how to properly…
