DMRG investigation of constrained models: from quantum dimer and quantum loop ladders to hard-boson and Fibonacci anyon chains

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

Motivated by the presence of Ising transitions that take place entirely in the singlet sector of frustrated spin-1/2 ladders and spin-1 chains, we study two types of effective dimer models on ladders, a quantum dimer model and a quantum loop model. Buildin ...

Ising Model: Local Spin Correlations and Conformal Invariance

Clément Hongler, Sung Chul Park

We study the 2-dimensional Ising model at critical temperature on a simply connected subset of the square grid Z2. The scaling limit of the critical Ising model is conjectured to be described by Conformal Field Theory; in particular, there is expected to b ...

Fermion conformal bootstrap in 4d

Denis Karateev, Alessandro Vichi

We apply numerical conformal bootstrap techniques to the four-point function of a Weyl spinor in 4d non-supersymmetric CFTs. We find universal bounds on operator dimensions and OPE coefficients, including bounds on operators in mixed symmetry representatio ...

Scalar-fermion analytic bootstrap in 4D

Denis Karateev

In this work we discuss an analytic bootstrap approach [1, 2] in the context of spinning 4D conformal blocks [3, 4]. As an example we study the simplest spinning case, the scalar-fermion correlator. We find that to every pair of primary scalar phi and ferm ...

Momentum-space conformal blocks on the light cone

Marc Gillioz

We study the momentum-space 4-point correlation function of identical scalar operators in conformal field theory. Working specifically with null momenta, we show that its imaginary part admits an expansion in conformal blocks. The blocks are polynomials in ...

Graviton scattering and a sum rule for the c anomaly in 4D CFT

Marc Gillioz

4D CFTs have a scale anomaly characterized by the coefficient c, which appears as the coefficient of logarithmic terms in momentum space correlation functions of the energy-momentum tensor. By studying the CFT contribution to 4-point graviton scattering am ...

Radial coordinates for defect CFTs

Marco Meineri

We study the two-point function of local operators in the presence of a defect in a generic conformal field theory. We define two pairs of cross ratios, which are convenient in the analysis of the OPE in the bulk and defect channel respectively. The new co ...

Universality at large transverse spin in defect CFT

Marco Meineri, Sourav Sarkar

We study the spectrum of local operators living on a defect in a generic conformal field theory, and their coupling to the local bulk operators. We establish the existence of universal accumulation points in the spectrum at large s, s being the charge of t ...

Scale anomalies, states, and rates in conformal field theory

Marc Gillioz

This paper presents two methods to compute scale anomaly coefficients in conformal field theories (CFTs), such as the c anomaly in four dimensions, in terms of the CFT data. We first use Euclidean position space to show that the anomaly coefficient of a fo ...

Dimerization and exotic criticality in spin-S chains

Natalia Chepiga

In this thesis we have studied the emergence of spontaneously dimerized phases in frustrated spin-S chains, with emphasis on the nature of the critical lines between the dimerized and non-dimerized phases. The main numerical method used in this thesis is t ...
