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 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

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.

I will present recent developments in the computation of three point functions in the AdS4/CFT3 correspondence. More specifically I will consider two different computations for three point functions of operators belonging to the SU(2)XSU(2) sector of ABJM. I will discuss first the generalization of the determinant representation, found by Foda for the three-point functions of the SU(2) sector of N = 4 SYM, to the ABJM theory and secondly semiclassical computations in the case where two operators are heavy and one is light and BPS, comparing the results obtained in the gauge theory side using a coherent state description of the heavy operators with its string theory counterpart calculated holographically.
