A simple construction of Heat Kernels and conformal anomalies via Fedosov deformation quantization

Thomas Basile, Evgeny Skvortsov

We propose a new approach to the systematic computation of the heat-kernel expansion and, in particular, of conformal anomalies, based on Fedosov deformation quantization. The appr…

Spinor-helicity formalism for continuous-spin particles

Thomas Basile, Xavier Bekaert, Felipe Figueroa +1

We propose a new formulation of continuous-spin particles (CSP) with the help of a single two-component spinor to build asymptotic states. This formulation allows to write down amp…

Dirichlet, Neumann, Mixed and self-dual holography: (self-dual) Yang--Mills theory II

Evgeny Skvortsov, Richard Van Dongen

We consider Yang--Mills, Chalmers--Siegel and self-dual Yang--Mills (SDYM) theories within AdS/CFT correspondence. Bulk-to-bulk and boundary-to-bulk propagators are derived in vari…

Self-dual holography: four-point AdS/CFT correlators in higher-spin gravity

Evgeny Skvortsov, Richard Van Dongen

Self-dual theories, being UV-finite, should have their own AdS/CFT dualities. Higher-spin extensions of self-dual theories are attractive to simplify the CFT duals. The maximal sel…

Amplitudes in self-dual (higher-spin) theories

Mattia Serrani, Evgeny Skvortsov

Self-dual theories are powerful toy models of their completions. It was shown recently that there are infinitely many SD-theories once massless higher-spin fields are allowed. The…

Dirichlet, Neumann, Mixed and self-dual holography: (self-dual) Yang-Mills theory

Evgeny Skvortsov, Richard Van Dongen

Motivated by applications of self-dual theories to the AdS/CFT correspondence, we study self-dual Yang-Mills theory (SDYM) and its relation to Yang-Mills theory and to Chalmers-Sie…
