Conserved current correlators of conformal field theories in 2+1 dimensions
Yejin Huh,⇤ Philipp Strack,† and Subir Sachdev‡ Department of Physics, Harvard University, Cambridge MA 02138 (Dated: October 31, 2014) Abstract We compute current correlators of the CPN 1 field theory in 2+1 dimensions, both at the critical point and in the phase with spontaneously broken SU(N) symmetry. Universal constants are obtained to next-toleading order in the 1/N expansion. Implication...
متن کاملQuantum critical transport , duality , and M - theory
We consider charge transport properties of 2+1 dimensional conformal field theories at non-zero temperature. For theories with only Abelian U(1) charges, we describe the action of particle-vortex duality on the hydrodynamic-to-collisionless crossover function: this leads to powerful functional constraints for self-dual theories. For N=8 supersymmetric, SU(N) Yang-Mills theory at the conformal f...
متن کاملPrepared for submission to JHEP Fractional Statistics and the Butterfly Effect
Fractional statistics and quantum chaos are both phenomena associated with the non-local storage of quantum information. In this article, we point out a connection between the butterfly effect in (1+1)-dimensional rational conformal field theories and fractional statistics in (2+1)-dimensional topologically ordered states. This connection comes from the characterization of the butterfly effect ...
متن کاملTopological Order and Conformal Quantum Critical Points
We discuss a certain class of two-dimensional quantum systems which exhibit conventional order and topological order, as well as two-dimensional quantum critical points separating these phases. All of the ground-state equal-time correlators of these theories are equal to correlation functions of a local two-dimensional classical model. The critical points therefore exhibit a time-independent fo...
متن کاملGravity duals for nonrelativistic conformal field theories.
We attempt to generalize the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondence to nonrelativistic conformal field theories which are invariant under Galilean transformations. Such systems govern ultracold atoms at unitarity, nucleon scattering in some channels, and, more generally, a family of universality classes of quantum critical behavior. We construct a family of metrics which realize t...
