Probing Universalities in d>2 CFTs: from Black Holes to Shockwaves

A. Liam Fitzpatrick, Kuo-Wei Huang, Daliang Li

Gravitational shockwaves are insensitive to higher-curvature corrections in the action. Recent work found that the OPE coefficients of lowest-twist multi-stress-tensor operators, c…

The Bulk-to-Boundary Propagator in Black Hole Microstate Backgrounds

Hongbin Chen, A. Liam Fitzpatrick, Jared Kaplan +1

First-quantized propagation in quantum gravitational AdS backgrounds can be exactly reconstructed using CFT data and Virasoro symmetry. We develop methods to compute the bu…

Bulk Matter and the Boundary Quantum Null Energy Condition

Zuhair U. Khandker, Sandipan Kundu, Daliang Li

We investigate the quantum null energy condition (QNEC) in holographic CFTs, focusing on half-spaces and particular classes of states. We present direct, and in certain cases nonpe…

The AdS Propagator and the Fate of Locality

Hongbin Chen, A. Liam Fitzpatrick, Jared Kaplan +1

We recently used Virasoro symmetry considerations to propose an exact formula for a bulk proto-field in AdS. In this paper we study the propagator . We s…

An Exact Operator That Knows Its Location

Nikhil Anand, Hongbin Chen, A. Liam Fitzpatrick +2

We use conformal symmetry to define an AdS proto-field as an exact linear combination of Virasoro descendants of a CFT primary operator . We find that both…

Conformal Bootstrap in the Regge Limit

Daliang Li, David Meltzer, David Poland

We analytically solve the conformal bootstrap equations in the Regge limit for large N conformal field theories. For theories with a parametrically large gap, the amplitude is domi…
