Convexity and Liberation at Large Spin
Alexander Zhiboedov
1:30pm|Bloomberg Hall Physics Library
We consider several aspects of unitary higher-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs). We first study massive deformations that trigger a flow to a gapped phase. Deep inelastic scattering in the gapped phase leads to a convexity property of...
