A slow review of the AGT correspondence

B Le Floch - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Starting with a gentle approach to the Alday–Gaiotto–Tachikawa (AGT) correspondence
from its 6d origin, these notes provide a wide (albeit shallow) survey of the literature on …

Bootstrapping closed string field theory

AH Fırat - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract The determination of the string vertices of closed string field theory is shown to be a
conformal field theory problem solvable by combining insights from Liouville theory …

Light cone bootstrap in general 2D CFTs and entanglement from light cone singularity

Y Kusuki - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
A bstract The light cone OPE limit provides a significant amount of information regarding the

On the late-time behavior of Virasoro blocks and a classification of semiclassical saddles

AL Fitzpatrick, J Kaplan - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract Recent work has demonstrated that black hole thermodynamics and information
loss/restoration in AdS 3/CFT 2 can be derived almost entirely from the behavior of the …

On the Virasoro six-point identity block and chaos

T Anous, FM Haehl - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We study six-point correlation functions in two dimensional conformal field theory,

Leading multi-stress tensors and conformal bootstrap

R Karlsson, M Kulaxizi, A Parnachev… - Journal of High Energy …, 2020 - Springer
Near lightcone correlators are dominated by operators with the lowest twist. We consider the
contributions of such leading lowest twist multi-stress tensor operators to a heavy-heavy …
