    A bispinor formalism for spinning Witten diagrams

    We develop a new embedding-space formalism for AdS4 and CFT3 that is useful for evaluating Witten diagrams for operators with spin. The basic variables are Killing spinors for the bulk AdS4 and conformal Killing ...

    The cubic fixed point at large N

    By considering the renormalization group flow between N coupled Ising models in the UV and the cubic fixed point in the IR, we study the large N behavior of the cubic fixed points in three dimensions. We derive a...

    The 3d \( \mathcal{N} \) = 6 bootstrap: from higher spins to strings to membranes

    We study the space of 3d N \( \mathcal{N} \) = 6 SCFTs by combining numeric...

    Deligne categories in lattice models and quantum field theory, or making sense of O(N) symmetry with non-integer N

    When studying quantum field theories and lattice models, it is often useful to analytically continue the number of field or spin components from an integer to a real number. In spite of this, the precise meani...

    Absence of D4R4 in M-theory from ABJM

    Supersymmetry allows a D4R4 interaction in M-theory, but such an interaction is inconsistent with string theory dualities and so is known to be absent. We provide a novel proof of the absence of the D4R4 M-theory...

    AdS4/CFT3 from weak to strong string coupling

    We consider the four-point function of operators in the stress tensor multiplet of the U(N)k× U(N)−k ABJM theory, in the limit where N is taken to infinity while N/k5 is held fixed. In this limit, ABJM theory is ...
