A Bootstrap Study of Confinement in AdS
Lorenzo Di Pietro, Stefanos R. Kousvos, Marco Meineri +3
Yang-Mills theory in AdS with Dirichlet boundary conditions is expected to undergo a transition as the AdS radius varies, since the boundary data is incompatible with confine…

Bootstrapping the Simplest Deconfined Quantum Critical Point
Shai M. Chester, Alessandro Piazza, Marten Reehorst +1
We study the case of the model, which is a field theory of complex scalars in coupled to an Abelian gauge field with global symmetry.…

On the expansion in CFTs with degenerate operators
Agnese Bissi, Nicola Dondi, Alessandro Piazza +2
We analytically determine the large central charge asymptotic expansion of the Virasoro conformal blocks entering in four-point functions with external degenerate operators on a sp…
