Disturbing news about the expansion II. Assessing the recombination scenario

Fabiana De Cesare, Slava Rychkov

In [De Cesare, Rychkov (2025)], we revisited the expansion in the Non-Linear Sigma Model (NLSM), emphasizing the existence of a protected operator which is a closed…

Conformal bootstrap: from Polyakov to our times

Slava Rychkov

We trace the history of conformal bootstrap from its early days to our times - a great example of unity of physics. We start by describing little-known details about the origins of…

Comment on "Redundancy Channels in the Conformal Bootstrap" by S. R. Kousvos and A. Stergiou

Slava Rychkov

Recent work by Kousvos and Stergiou criticises our work with Zhong Ming Tan [arXiv:1505.00963]. The issue is CFT scaling dimension computations in perturbative Renormalization Grou…

Disturbing news about the expansion

Fabiana De Cesare, Slava Rychkov

The Non-Linear Sigma Model (NLSM) in has long been conjectured to describe the same conformal field theory (CFT) as the Wilson-Fisher (WF) fixed point obtaine…

Bootstrapping frustrated magnets: the fate of the chiral universality class

Marten Reehorst, Slava Rychkov, Benoit Sirois +1

We study multiscalar theories with symmetry. These models have a stable fixed point in dimensions if is greater than some critical value $N…

New Developments in the Numerical Conformal Bootstrap

Slava Rychkov, Ning Su

The numerical conformal bootstrap has become in the last 15 years an indispensable tool for studying strongly coupled CFTs in various dimensions. Here we review the main developmen…
