The Spectrum of Strings on Warped AdS3

Wei Song Harvard University
December 05, 2012

PIRSA:12120027
High Energy Physics
Warped AdS3 has isometry SL(2,R) x U(1). It is closed related to Kerr/CFT, non local dipole theories and AdS/CMT. In this talk I will derive the spectrum of string theory on Warped AdS3. This is possible because the worldsheet theory can be mapped to the worldsheet on AdS3 by a nonlocal field redefinition.
Moduli Stabilization and Holographic RG
December 04, 2012

PIRSA:12120002
High Energy Physics
In this talk, I will relate moduli stabilization in AdS or de Sitter space to basic properties of the Wilsonian action in the holographic dual theory living on dS (of one lower dimension): the single-trace terms in the action have vanishing beta functions, and higher-trace couplings are determined purely from lower-trace ones (a property we refer to as the iterative structure of RG). In the dS case, this encodes the maximal symmetry of the bulk spacetime in a quantity which is accessible within a single observer's patch.
New electroweak states in plain sight

High Energy Physics
The LHC has made remarkable progress in exploring the SM at new energies and demonstrating remarkable agreement with theoretical predictions. In this talk I will discuss one area where the SM does not fit as well as expected, and what could be hints of new physics showing up in the electroweak sector.

Chern-Simons Contact Terms

Thomas Dumitrescu University of California, Los Angeles
November 28, 2012

PIRSA:12110094
High Energy Physics
Chern-Simons contact terms constitute new observables in three-dimensional quantum field theory. In N=2 supersymmetric theories with an R-symmetry, they lead to a superconformal anomaly. This understanding clarifies several puzzles surrounding the S3 partition function of these theories. In particular, it leads to a proof of the F-maximization principle. Chern-Simons contact terms can be computed exactly using localization and lead to new tests of proposed dualities.

Bootstrapping CFTs with the Extremal Functional Method

PIRSA:12110049
High Energy Physics
The existence of a positive linear functional acting on the space of (differences between) conformal blocks has been shown to rule out regions in the parameter space of conformal field theories (CFTs). We argue that at the boundary of the allowed region the extremal functional contains, in principle, enough information to determine the dimensions and OPE coefficients of an infinite number of operators appearing in the correlator under analysis. Based on this idea we develop the Extremal Functional Method (EFM), a numerical procedure for deriving the spectrum and OPE coefficients of CFTs lying on the boundary (of solution space). We test the EFM by using it to rederive the low lying spectrum and OPE coefficients of the 2d Ising model based solely on the dimension of a single scalar quasi-primary -- no Virasoro algebra required. Our work serves as a benchmark for applications to more interesting, less known CFTs in the near future, such as the 3d Ising model.
