Free partition functions and an averaged holographic duality

Nima Afkhami-Jeddi, Henry Cohn, Thomas Hartman +1

We study the torus partition functions of free bosonic CFTs in two dimensions. Integrating over Narain moduli defines an ensemble-averaged free CFT. We calculate the averaged parti…

High-dimensional sphere packing and the modular bootstrap

Nima Afkhami-Jeddi, Henry Cohn, Thomas Hartman +2

We carry out a numerical study of the spinless modular bootstrap for conformal field theories with current algebra , or equivalently the linear programming bo…

Fast Conformal Bootstrap and Constraints on 3d Gravity

Nima Afkhami-Jeddi, Thomas Hartman, Amirhossein Tajdini

The crossing equations of a conformal field theory can be systematically truncated to a finite, closed system of polynomial equations. In certain cases, solutions of the truncated…

A Bound on Massive Higher Spin Particles

Nima Afkhami-Jeddi, Sandipan Kundu, Amirhossein Tajdini

According to common lore, massive elementary higher spin particles lead to inconsistencies when coupled to gravity. However, this scenario was not completely ruled out by previous…

A Conformal Collider for Holographic CFTs

Nima Afkhami-Jeddi, Sandipan Kundu, Amirhossein Tajdini

We develop a formalism to study the implications of causality on OPE coefficients in conformal field theories with large central charge and a sparse spectrum of higher spin operato…

Shockwaves from the Operator Product Expansion

Nima Afkhami-Jeddi, Thomas Hartman, Sandipan Kundu +1

We clarify and further explore the CFT dual of shockwave geometries in Anti-de Sitter. The shockwave is dual to a CFT state produced by a heavy local operator inserted at a complex…
