Analytic Boundaries of Infinite-Spin-Tower Amplitudes from Hidden Zero

Long-Qi Shao, Alessandro Vichi

We study the general form of meromorphic amplitudes that are compatible with unitarity, analyticity, crossing symmetry, polynomial boundedness and the hidden-zero and corresponding…

Thermal One-point Functions and Asymptotic CFT Data: QFT in AdS

Ilija Burić, Francesco Mangialardi, Francesco Russo +2

We investigate the thermal partition and one-point functions of the three-dimensional conformal field theory dual to a massive interacting scalar field in AdS. Using thermal in…

Primal Bootstrap for Pion Scattering at Large-N

Sebastiano Bocchia, Alessandro Vichi

We introduce a basis for tree-level meromorphic scattering amplitudes suitable for describing pion scattering in the large-N limit. The basis is constructed as linear combinations…

Thermal effective action for the vector model

Lorenzo Mauro, Alessandro Vichi

We compute the leading coefficients of the thermal effective action for the critical O(N) vector model in three dimensions, in the large-N limit in presence of non vanishing angula…

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…

Heavy-Heavy-Light Asymptotics from Thermal Correlators

Ilija Burić, Francesco Mangialardi, Francesco Russo +2

We revisit the calculation of spectral densities and heavy-heavy-light (HHL) operator product expansion (OPE) coefficients in three-dimensional conformal field theories using therm…
