Navigator function for the conformal bootstrap

نویسندگان

چکیده

Current numerical conformal bootstrap techniques carve out islands in theory space by repeatedly checking whether points are allowed or excluded. We propose a new method for searching that replaces the binary information "allowed"/"excluded" with continuous "navigator" function is negative region and positive excluded region. Such navigator allows one to efficiently explore high-dimensional parameter spaces smoothly sail towards any they may contain. The specific functions we introduce have several attractive features: everywhere well-defined, can be computed standard methods, evaluation of their gradient immediate due an SDP formula provide. latter property use efficient quasi-Newton optimization which illustrate navigating 3d Ising island.

Conformal bootstrap for the BFKL Pomeron

We calculate the interaction vertex of three BFKL states including the bare triple BFKL Pomeron coupling and discuss its relation with the correlation functions in two-dimensional conformal field theory. We construct the operator algebra of the fields interpolating the BFKL states and show that in the multi-color limit the vertex satisfies the constraints imposed by the conformal bootstrap on t...

Four-Fermion Theory and the Conformal Bootstrap

We employ the conformal bootstrap to re-examine the problem of finding the critical behavior of four-Fermion theory at its strong coupling fixed point. Existence of a solution of the bootstrap equations indicates self-consistency of the assumption that, in space-time dimensions less than four, the renormalization group flow of the coupling constant of a four-Fermion interaction has a nontrivial...

On the conformal bootstrap for SL(2,R)-WZNW models

Quantization of the SL(2,R)-WZNW model will be discussed from the point of view of the conformal bootstrap. Conformal blocks are defined from representations of affine sl(2) that are neither of highest nor lowest weight type. The general expression for the structure constants resp. three point functions is derived. Supplemented by a conjecture on the set of intermediate representations that con...

A Semidefinite Program Solver for the Conformal Bootstrap

We introduce SDPB: an open-source, parallelized, arbitrary-precision semidefinite program solver, designed for the conformal bootstrap. SDPB significantly outperforms less specialized solvers and should enable many new computations. As an example application, we compute a new rigorous high-precision bound on operator dimensions in the 3d Ising CFT, ∆σ = 0.518151(6), ∆ǫ = 1.41264(6).

The estimating function bootstrap

The authors propose a bootstrap procedure which estimates the distribution of an estimating function by resampling its terms using bootstrap techniques. Studentized versions of this so-called estimating function (EF) bootstrap yield methods which are invariant under reparametrizations. This approach often has substantial advantage, both in computation and accuracy, over more traditional bootstr...
