Coulomb Branch Quantization and Abelianized Monopole Bubbling
Mykola Dedushenko, Yale Fan, Silviu Pufu +1
We develop an approach to the study of Coulomb branch operators in 3D gauge theories and the associated quantization structure of their Coulomb branches. This struc…
Scalar Correlators in Bosonic Chern-Simons Vector Models

We consider the planar limit of Chern-Simons theories coupled to a scalar in the fundamental representation of a gauge group, at both the regular and Wilson-Fisher con…
The Analytic Bootstrap for Large Chern-Simons Vector Models
Ofer Aharony, Luis F. Alday, Agnese Bissi +1
Three-dimensional Chern-Simons vector models display an approximate higher spin symmetry in the large limit. Their single-trace operators consist of a tower of weakly broken cu…

Mykola Dedushenko, Yale Fan, Silviu S. Pufu +1
We develop new techniques for computing exact correlation functions of a class of local operators, including certain monopole operators, in three-dimensional abel…

Mykola Dedushenko, Silviu S. Pufu, Ran Yacoby
We use supersymmetric localization to calculate correlation functions of half-BPS local operators in 3d superconformal field theories whose Lagrangian descriptions c…

We analyze the conformal bootstrap constraints in theories with four supercharges and a global flavor symmetry in dimensions. In particular, we…

We compute the conformal blocks associated with scalar-scalar-fermion-fermion 4-point functions in 3D CFTs. Together with the known scalar conformal blocks, our result completes th…

Three dimensional bosonization is a conjectured duality between non-supersymmetric Chern-Simons theories coupled to matter fields in the fundamental representation of the gauge gro…

We study an supersymmetric generalization of the three-dimensional critical vector model that is described by chiral superfields with superpotential $W…

Shai M. Chester, Silviu S. Pufu, Ran Yacoby
We use the conformal bootstrap to study conformal field theories with global symmetry in and spacetime dimensions that have a scalar operator transformi…

Shai M. Chester, Jaehoon Lee, Silviu S. Pufu +1
We use the superconformal bootstrap to derive exact relations between OPE coefficients in three-dimensional superconformal field theories with supersymmetry. Thes…

We analyze the constraints imposed by unitarity and crossing symmetry on the four-point function of the stress-tensor multiplet of superconformal field theories in thr…
Bounds on Superconformal Theories with Global Symmetries
Micha Berkooz, Ran Yacoby, Amir Zait
Recently, the conformal-bootstrap has been successfully used to obtain generic bounds on the spectrum and OPE coefficients of unitary conformal field theories. In practice, these b…

We consider the large N limit of three-dimensional U(N)_k Chern-Simons theory coupled to a Dirac fermion in the fundamental representation. In this limit, we compute several correl…

We study three dimensional O(N)_k and U(N)_k Chern-Simons theories coupled to a scalar field in the fundamental representation, in the large N limit. For infinite k this is just th…
Large-N reduction in QCD-like theories with massive adjoint fermions
Tatsuo Azeyanagi, Masanori Hanada, Mithat Unsal +1
Large-N QCD with heavy adjoint fermions emulates pure Yang-Mills theory at long distances. We study this theory on a four- and three-torus, and analytically argue the existence of…
