The EEC-Hedron: Positivity Bounds on Energy Correlators

Bianka Meçaj, Ian Moult, Hidde Stoffels +2

We study the constraints placed by energy positivity on general unitary quantum field theories. We show that the coefficients in the partial wave expansion of energy-energy correla…

Bootstrapping Open Quantum Many-body Systems with Absorbing Phase Transitions

Minjae Cho, Colin Oscar Nancarrow, Petar Tadić +1

We demonstrate that combining the positivity of density matrices with steady-state conditions yields a systematic bootstrap method for studying open quantum many-body systems gover…

Energy Correlator Conformal Blocks and Positivity

Bianka Meçaj, Ian Moult, Matthew T. Walters +1

Correlation functions of energy flow operators (energy-energy correlators) are one of the simplest observables in quantum field theory and gravity, with diverse applications rangin…

Yang-Lee Quantum Criticality in Various Dimensions

Erick Arguello Cruz, Igor R. Klebanov, Grigory Tarnopolsky +1

The Yang-Lee universality class arises when imaginary magnetic field is tuned to its critical value in the paramagnetic phase of the Ising model. In , this non-unitary C…

Coarse-grained Bootstrap of Quantum Many-body Systems

Minjae Cho, Colin Oscar Nancarrow, Petar Tadić +2

We present a new computational framework combining coarse-graining techniques with bootstrap methods to study quantum many-body systems. The method efficiently computes rigorous up…

Precision study of the massive Schwinger model near quantum criticality

Erick Arguello Cruz, Grigory Tarnopolsky, Yuan Xin

We perform a numerical analysis of the massive Schwinger model in the presence of a background electric field. Using the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) approach, we ef…
