Conformal Bootstrap and Black Holes in AdS/CFT
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2022)In this thesis, we explore applications of the conformal bootstrap to holographic CFTs that are dual to theories of gravity in asymptotically Anti-de Sitter spacetimes. In particular, we consider correlation functions with ... -
Conformal bootstrap and thermalization in holographic CFTs
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2021)This thesis covers a number of topics in conformal field theories that are supposed to have gravity duals according to the AdS/CFT correspondence. We use the conformal bootstrap in the Regge and lightcone limits as the ... -
A note on gravity-scalar fluctuations in holographic RG flow geometries
(Elsevier, 2000)We study five-dimensional gravity models with non-vanishing background scalar fields which are dual to non-conformal boundary field theories. We develop a procedure to decouple the graviton fluctuations from the scalar ... -
Operator product expansion of the lowest weight CPOs in N = 4 SYM(4) at strong coupling
(2000)We present a detailed analysis of the 4-point functions of the lowest weight chiral primary operators OI ~ tr?(i?j) in N = 4 SYM4 at strong coupling and show that their structure is compatible with the predictions of ...
