A Bootstrap Study of Confinement in AdS
Lorenzo Di Pietro, Stefanos R. Kousvos, Marco Meineri +3
Yang-Mills theory in AdS with Dirichlet boundary conditions is expected to undergo a transition as the AdS radius varies, since the boundary data is incompatible with confine…
The random free field scalar theory
Alessandro Piazza, Marco Serone, Emilio Trevisani
Quantum field theories with quenched disorder are so hard to study that even exactly solvable free theories present puzzling aspects. We consider a free scalar field in di…
Bootstrapping the Simplest Deconfined Quantum Critical Point
Shai M. Chester, Alessandro Piazza, Marten Reehorst +1
We study the case of the model, which is a field theory of complex scalars in coupled to an Abelian gauge field with global symmetry.…
On the expansion in CFTs with degenerate operators
Agnese Bissi, Nicola Dondi, Alessandro Piazza +2
We analytically determine the large central charge asymptotic expansion of the Virasoro conformal blocks entering in four-point functions with external degenerate operators on a sp…
