Black holes from CFT: Universality of correlators at large c
Per Kraus, Allic Sivaramakrishnan, River Snively
Two-dimensional conformal field theories at large central charge and with a sufficiently sparse spectrum of light states have been shown to exhibit universal thermodynamics. This t…
Witten Diagrams for Torus Conformal Blocks
Per Kraus, Alexander Maloney, Henry Maxfield +2
We give a holographic description of global conformal blocks in two dimensional conformal field theory on the sphere and on the torus. We show that the conformal blocks for one-poi…
Anomalous dimensions from quantum Wilson lines
Mert Besken, Ashwin Hegde, Per Kraus
We study the self-energy of a gravitating point particle in AdS, and compare to operator dimensions in CFT. In particular, we compute the one and two loop diagram contribut…
