Regge trajectories for the (2,0) theories (2022)
Journal Article
Lemos, M., van Rees, B. C., & Zhao, X. (2022). Regge trajectories for the (2,0) theories. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022, Article 22. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep01%282022%29022

We investigate the structure of conformal Regge trajectories for the maximally supersymmetric (2, 0) theories in six dimensions. The different conformal multiplets in a single superconformal multiplet must all have similarly-shaped Regge trajectories... Read More about Regge trajectories for the (2,0) theories.

Superconformal surfaces in four dimensions (2020)
Journal Article
Bianchi, L., & Lemos, M. (2020). Superconformal surfaces in four dimensions. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020(6), Article 56. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep06%282020%29056

We study the constraints of superconformal symmetry on codimension two defects in four-dimensional superconformal field theories. We show that the one-point function of the stress tensor and the two-point function of the displacement operator are rel... Read More about Superconformal surfaces in four dimensions.

Line Defects and Radiation in N=2 Conformal Theories (2018)
Journal Article
Bianchi, L., Lemos, M., & Meineri, M. (2018). Line Defects and Radiation in N=2 Conformal Theories. Physical Review Letters, 121(14), Article 141601. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.121.141601

We study the conformal data of a generic superconformal line defect preserving half of the supercharges in a four-dimensional N = 2 conformal theory. We prove a theory independent relation between the one-point function of the stress tensor in the pr... Read More about Line Defects and Radiation in N=2 Conformal Theories.

Universality at large transverse spin in defect CFT (2018)
Journal Article
Lemos, M., Liendo, P., Meineri, M., & Sarkar, S. (2018). Universality at large transverse spin in defect CFT. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018(9), Article 091. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep09%282018%29091

We study the spectrum of local operators living on a defect in a generic conformal field theory, and their coupling to the local bulk operators. We establish the existence of universal accumulation points in the spectrum at large s, s being the charg... Read More about Universality at large transverse spin in defect CFT.

Bootstrapping the (A1, A2) Argyres-Douglas theory (2018)
Journal Article
Cornagliotto, M., Lemos, M., & Liendo, P. (2018). Bootstrapping the (A1, A2) Argyres-Douglas theory. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018(3), Article 033. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep03%282018%29033

We apply bootstrap techniques in order to constrain the CFT data of the (A1, A2) Argyres-Douglas theory, which is arguably the simplest of the Argyres-Douglas models. We study the four-point function of its single Coulomb branch chiral ring generator... Read More about Bootstrapping the (A1, A2) Argyres-Douglas theory.

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.
