Liouville theory and the Weil-Petersson geometry of moduli space: bordered, conic, and higher genus surfaces
Kale Colville, Sarah M. Harrison, Alexander Maloney +1
Two-dimensional conformal field theory is a powerful tool to understand the geometry of surfaces. Here, we study Liouville conformal field theory in the classical (large central ch…

Constraints on Higher Spin CFT
Nima Afkhami-Jeddi, Kale Colville, Thomas Hartman +2
We derive constraints on two-dimensional conformal field theories with higher spin symmetry due to unitarity, modular invariance, and causality. We focus on CFTs with $\mathcal{W}_…

On isospectral deformations of an inhomogeneous string
Kale Colville, Daniel Gomez, Jacek Szmigielski
In this paper we consider a class of isospectral deformations of the inhomogeneous string boundary value problem. The deformations considered are generalizations of the isospectral…
