A variational investigation of the SU(N) Heisenberg model in antisymmetric irreducible representations

Jérôme Dufour

Motivated by recent experimental progress in the context of ultra-cold multi-colour fermionic atoms in optical lattices, this thesis investigates the properties of the antiferromagnetic SU(N) Heisenberg models with fully antisymmetric irreducible represent ...

Radial expansion for spinning conformal blocks

This paper develops a method to compute any bosonic conformal block as a series expansion in the optimal radial coordinate introduced by Hogervorst and Rychkov. The method reduces to the known result when the external operators are all the same scalar oper ...

Conformal Invariance of Spin Pattern Probabilities in the Planar Ising Model

Clément Hongler, Sung Chul Park

We study the 2-dimensional Ising model at critical temperature on a smooth simply-connected graph Ω.We rigorously prove the conformal invariance of arbitrary spin-pattern probabilities centered at a point a and derive formulas to compute the probabilities ...

Lattice Representations of the Virasoro Algebra I : Discrete Gaussian Free Field

Clément Hongler

Most two-dimensional massless field theories carry represe ntations of the Virasoro algebra as consequences of their conformal symmetry. Recently, conformal symmetry has been rigorously established for scaling limit s of lattice models by means of discrete ...

Factorization of Mellin amplitudes

We introduce Mellin amplitudes for correlation functions of k scalar operators and one operator with spin in conformal field theories (CFT) in general dimension. We show that Mellin amplitudes for scalar operators have simple poles with residues that facto ...

Variational Monte Carlo investigation of SU(N) Heisenberg chains

Frédéric Mila, Pierre Marcel Nataf, Jérôme Dufour

Motivated by recent experimental progress in the context of ultracold multicolor fermionic atoms in optical lattices, we have investigated the properties of the SU (N) Heisenberg chain with totally antisymmetric irreducible representations, the effective m ...

Conformal Invariance of Spin Correlations in the Planar Ising Model

Clément Hongler

We rigorously prove the existence and the conformal invariance of scaling limits of the magnetization and multi-point spin correlations in the critical Ising model on arbitrary simply connected planar domains. This solves a number of conjectures coming fro ...

The role of leading twist operators in the Regge and Lorentzian OPE limits

We study two kinematical limits, the Regge limit and the Lorentzian OPE limit, of the four-point function of the stress-tensor multiplet in Super Yang-Mills at weak coupling. We explain how both kinematical limits are controlled by the leading twist operat ...

The alpha-theorem and the asymptotics of 4D quantum field theory

Riccardo Rattazzi

We study the possible IR and UV asymptotics of 4D Lorentz invariant unitary quantum field theory. Our main tool is a generalization of the Komargodski-Schwimmer proof for the alpha-theorem. We use this to rule out a large class of renormalization group flo ...

Realization of higher Wess-Zumino-Witten models in spin chains

Frédéric Mila, Salvatore Manmana, Frédéric Alexis Michaud

Building on the generalization of the exactly dimerized Majumdar-Ghosh ground state to arbitrary spin S for the Heisenberg chain with a three-site term (Si-1 . S-i)(S-i . Si+1) + H.c., we use density-matrix renormalization group simulations and exact diago ...
