Generalized Symmetries and Deformations of Symmetric Product Orbifolds
Nathan Benjamin, Suzanne Bintanja, Yu-Jui Chen +3
We construct generalized symmetries in two-dimensional symmetric product orbifold CFTs for a generic seed CFT . These symmetries are more…

The Edge-Distinguishing Game
Nathaniel Benjamin, Elisa Benthem, Cooper Burkel +2
In this paper, we introduce a graph coloring game called the Edge-Distinguishing Game (EDGe). The edge-distinguishing chromatic number of a graph is used to determine the moves eac…

Properties of scalar partition functions of 2d CFTs
Nathan Benjamin, Cyuan-Han Chang, A. Liam Fitzpatrick +1
We study the spectrum of scalar primary operators in any two-dimensional conformal field theory. We show that the scalars alone obey a nontrivial crossing equation. This extends pr…
