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…
Bounds on Abelian Currents in 4d CFTs
Denis Karateev, Petr Kravchuk, Andrea Manenti +2
We study four-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) with an abelian global symmetry using the conformal bootstrap approach. We obtain numerical bounds on the scaling d…
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…
Thermal One-point Functions and Their Partial Wave Decomposition
Ilija Buric, Francesco Russo, Volker Schomerus +1
In this work we address partial wave decompositions of thermal one-point functions in conformal field theories on . With the help of Casimir differential equati…
Exploring Replica-Potts CFTs in Two Dimensions
Stefanos R. Kousvos, Alessandro Piazza, Alessandro Vichi
We initiate a numerical conformal bootstrap study of CFTs with global symmetry. These include CFTs that can be obtained as coupled replicas of two-dimensional…
Positivity Bounds on Massive Vectors
Francesco Bertucci, Johan Henriksson, Brian McPeak +3
In this paper, we explore positivity bounds for the effective field theory~(EFT) of a single weakly coupled massive vector field. The presence of both mass and spin makes the cross…
Bootstrapping mesons at large : Regge trajectory from spin-two maximization
Jan Albert, Johan Henriksson, Leonardo Rastelli +1
We continue the investigation of large QCD from a modern bootstrap perspective, focusing on the mesons. We make the natural spectral assumption that the pion amplitud…
Adding subtractions: comparing the impact of different Regge behaviors
Brian McPeak, Marco Venuti, Alessandro Vichi
Dispersion relations let us leverage the analytic structure of scattering amplitudes to derive constraints such as bounds on EFT coefficients. An important input is the large-energ…
Spinning Partial Waves for Scattering Amplitudes in Dimensions
Ilija Buric, Francesco Russo, Alessandro Vichi
Partial wave decomposition is one of the main tools within the modern S-matrix studies. We present a method to compute partial waves for scattering of spinning particles in…
Non-Abelian currents bootstrap
Yin-Chen He, Junchen Rong, Ning Su +1
We initiate the study of correlation functions of non-Abelian spin-1 conserved current in three dimensional conformal field theories using numerical conformal bootstrap. We discuss…
Bounding Violations of the Weak Gravity Conjecture
Johan Henriksson, Brian McPeak, Francesco Russo +1
The black hole weak gravity conjecture (WGC) is a set of linear inequalities on the four-derivative corrections to Einstein--Maxwell theory. Remarkably, in four dimensions, these c…
Rigorous Bounds on Light-by-Light Scattering
Johan Henriksson, Brian McPeak, Francesco Russo +1
We bound EFT coefficients appearing in photon scattering amplitudes in four dimensions. After reviewing unitarity and positivity conditions in this context, we use disper…
One-loop adjoint masses for branes at non-supersymmetric angles
P. Anastasopoulos, I. Antoniadis, K. Benakli +2
This proceeding is based on arXiv:1105.0591 [hep-th] where we consider breaking of supersymmetry in intersecting D-brane configurations by slight deviation of the angles from their…

P. Anastasopoulos, I. Antoniadis, K. Benakli +2
We consider breaking of supersymmetry in intersecting D-brane configurations by slight deviation of the angles from their supersymmetric values. We compute the masses generated by…
