Bouncing singularities and thermal correlators on line defects
Simone Giombi, Yue-Zhou Li, Jieru Shan
Thermal correlators in holographic conformal field theories are known to exhibit singularities in complex time, sometimes referred to as ``bouncing singularities", which are believ…

Gravitational Raman Scattering in Effective Field Theory: a Scalar Tidal Matching at
Mikhail M. Ivanov, Yue-Zhou Li, Julio Parra-Martinez +1
We present a framework to compute amplitudes for the gravitational analog of the Raman process, a quasi-elastic scattering of waves off compact objects, in worldline effective fiel…

Effective field theory bootstrap, large-N PT and holographic QCD
Yue-Zhou Li
We review the effective field theory (EFT) bootstrap by formulating it as an infinite-dimensional semidefinite program (SDP), built from the crossing symmetric sum rules and the S-…
