Analyticity Constraints and Trace Anomaly Matching

Adam Schwimmer, Stefan Theisen

Using an unambiguous characterization of Trace Anomalies a general proof of matching for Type A and B anomalies in the broken phases of Conformal Field Theories is given. The gener…

Osborn Equation and Irrelevant Operators

Adam Schwimmer, Stefan Theisen

The structure of the Osborn ("Local Renormalization Group") Equation in the presence of integer dimensional irrelevant operators is studied. We argue that the consistency of the an…

Universal Features of Holographic Anomalies

A. Schwimmer, S. Theisen

We study the mechanism by which gravitational actions reproduce the trace anomalies of the holographically related conformal field theories. Two universal features emerge: a) the r…

Diffeomorphisms, Anomalies and the Fefferman-Graham Ambiguity

A. Schwimmer, S. Theisen

Using the Weyl transfomations induced by diffeomorphisms we set up a cohomological problem for the Fefferman-Graham coefficients. The cohomologically nontrivial solutions remove th…

p-brane Dyons, theta-terms and Dimensional Reduction

S. Deser, M. Henneaux, A. Schwimmer

We present two novel derivations of the recently established factor in the charge quantization condition for -brane dyon sources in spacetime dimension =+2. The f…

Symplectic fusion rings and their metric

D. Gepner, A. Schwimmer

The fusion of fields in a rational conformal field theory gives rise to a ring structure which has a very particular form. All such rings studied so far were shown to arise from so…
