Finding CFTs from spatial positivity of partition functions

Léo Buisine, Horacio Casini, Leandro Martinek

We discuss a positivity property for partition functions that generalizes modular invariance and which is here conjectured to hold for general 2D CFTs. We show its relation to posi…

A generalization of the DHR theorem for higher form symmetries

Horacio Casini, Javier M. Magan

The Doplicher-Haag-Roberts (DHR) reconstruction theorem shows that standard (-form) internal symmetries are associated to groups in relativistic quantum field theory in spacetim…

Selection rules for RG flows of minimal models

Valentin Benedetti, Horacio Casini, Javier M. Magan

Minimal d=2 CFTs are usually classified through modular invariant partition functions. There is a finer classification of ``non complete'' models when S-duality is not imposed. We…

Mutual information from modular flow in CFTs

Cesar A. Agon, Horacio Casini, Umut Gürsoy +1

The operator product expansion (OPE) of twist operators in the replica trick framework enables a long-distance expansion of the mutual information (MI) in conformal field theories…

Modular invariance as completeness

Valentin Benedetti, Horacio Casini, Yasuyuki Kawahigashi +2

We review the physical meaning of modular invariance for unitary conformal quantum field theories in d=2. For QFT models, while T invariance is necessary for locality, S invariance…

Standard translation twists and an operator-bounded energy inequality

Horacio Casini, Leandro Martinek

Twist operators implement symmetries in bounder regions of the space. Standard twists are a special class of twists constructed using modular tools. The twists corresponding to tra…

ABJ anomaly as a U(1) symmetry and Noether's theorem

Valentin Benedetti, Horacio Casini, Javier M. Magan

The Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly determines the violation of chiral symmetry when massless fermions are coupled to an abelian gauge field. In its seminal paper, Adler noticed that a m…
