Local superconformal algebras
Fabian Hahner, Surya Raghavendran, Ingmar Saberi +1
Given a supermanifold equipped with an odd distribution of maximal dimension and constant symbol, we construct the formal moduli problem of deformations of the distribution. This m…
On the renormalization and quantization of topological-holomorphic field theories
Minghao Wang, Brian R. Williams
Topological field theories and holomorphic field theories naturally appear in both mathematics and physics. However, there exist intriguing hybrid theories that are topological in…
The local cohomology of vector fields
Brian R Williams
We compute the local cohomology of vector fields on a manifold. In the smooth case this recovers the diagonal cohomology studied in work of Losik, Guillemin, Fuks and others. In th…
A complex geometric perspective on a,c anomalies
Brian R Williams
In four-dimensional conformal field theory, the numbers a and c are defined as coefficients of particular terms in the operator product expansion (OPE) of the energy-momentum tenso…
Twisted holography on AdS & the planar chiral algebra
Víctor E. Fernández, Natalie M. Paquette, Brian R. Williams
In this work, we revisit and elaborate on twisted holography for AdS with , K3, with a particular focus on K3. We describe the twist of supergravity…
