Regge in Wonderland
Alessio Miscioscia, Dmitrii Pavshinkin, Fedor K. Popov
We study the asymptotic behavior of large-spin operators in conformal field theories by placing the theory on a pp-wave background. In this setting, three-point coefficients involv…
Towers of Operators in CFTs and Convexity Bounds at Large Charge
Fedor K. Popov, Adar Sharon
In arXiv:2406.19441, it was shown that for 3d CFTs with a moduli space along which a symmetry is spontaneously broken, the minimum scaling dimension at large charge scal…
Regge's Inferno
Zohar Komargodski, Alessio Miscioscia, Fedor K. Popov
We study large-spin operators in conformal field theories (CFTs) in spacetime dimensions by placing the theory on appropriate pp-wave backgrounds. We show that these geometri…
Trapping Flux in Metals
Zohar Komargodski, Fedor K. Popov
We report on a new flux quantization phenomenon in metals. We study the response of normal metals to the presence of localized magnetic flux. We find that, due to backreaction effe…
