Maximally heavy dynamics in the causal diamond

David Poland, Gordon Rogelberg

Correlation functions of CFT operators with infinite scaling dimension are rich, multifaceted objects that describe physics ranging across classical holography, black hole dynamics…

Moments and saddles of heavy CFT correlators

David Poland, Gordon Rogelberg

We study the operator product expansion (OPE) of identical scalars in a conformal four-point correlator as a Stieltjes moment problem, and use Riemann-Liouville type fractional dif…

Mixed five-point correlators in the 3d Ising model

David Poland, Valentina Prilepina, Petar TadiÄ

We study five-point correlators of the $I ¨ $ , $I^µ$ , and $I^µ^{'}$ operators in the critical 3d Ising model. We consider the $I ¨ \times I ¨ $ and $I ¨ \times I^µ$ operator product expansions (…

Improving the five-point bootstrap

David Poland, Valentina Prilepina, Petar TadiÄ

We present a new algorithm for the numerical evaluation of five-point conformal blocks in $d$ -dimensions, greatly improving the efficiency of their computation. To do this we use a…
