Unitarity violation at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in 4-epsilon dimensions (2016)
Journal Article
Hogevorst, M., Rychkov, S., & van Rees, B. (2016). Unitarity violation at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in 4-epsilon dimensions. Physical Review D, 93(12), Article 125025. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.93.125025

We consider the continuation of free and interacting scalar field theory to noninteger spacetime dimension d. We find that the correlation functions in these theories are necessarily incompatible with unitarity (or with reflection positivity in Eucli...

The N=2 superconformal bootstrap (2016)
Journal Article
Beem, C., Lemos, M., Liendo, P., Rastelli, L., & van Rees, B. (2016). The N=2 superconformal bootstrap. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016(3), Article 183. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep03%282016%29183

In this work we initiate the conformal bootstrap program for N=2N=2 super-conformal field theories in four dimensions. We promote an abstract operator-algebraic viewpoint in order to unify the description of Lagrangian and non-Lagrangian theories, an... Read More about The N=2 superconformal bootstrap.

The (2, 0) superconformal bootstrap (2016)
Journal Article
Beem, C., Lemos, M., Rastelli, L., & van Rees, B. C. (2016). The (2, 0) superconformal bootstrap. Physical Review D, 93(2), Article 025016. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.93.025016

We develop the conformal bootstrap program for six-dimensional conformal field theories with (2, 0) supersymmetry, focusing on the universal four-point function of stress tensor multiplets. We review the solution of the superconformal Ward identities... Read More about The (2, 0) superconformal bootstrap.
