Hidden relations of central charges and OPEs in holographic CFT

It is known that the (a, c) central charges in four-dimensional CFTs are linear combinations of the three independent OPE coefficients of the stress-tensor three-point function. In this paper, we adopt the holographic approach using AdS gravity as an effect field theory and consider higher-order corrections up to and including the cubic Riemann tensor invariants. We derive the holographic central charges and OPE coefficients and show that they are invariant under the metric field redefinition. We further discover a hidden relation among the OPE coefficients that two of them can be expressed in terms of the third using differential operators, which are the unit radial vector and the Laplacian of a four-dimensional hyperbolic space whose radial variable is an appropriate length parameter that is invariant under the field redefinition. Furthermore, we prove that the consequential relation c = 1/3ℓeff∂a/∂ℓeff and its higher-dimensional generalization are valid for massless AdS gravity constructed from the most general Riemann tensor invariants.

2D ELASTICITY TENSOR INVARIANTS, INVARIANTS DEFINITE POSITIVE CRITERIA

In this paper, we constructed relationships with the differents 2D elasticity tensor invariants. Indeed, let ${\bf A}$ be a 2D elasticity tensor. Rotation group action leads to a pair of Lax in linear elasticity. This pair of Lax leads to five independent invariants chosen among six. The definite positive criteria are established with the determined invariants. We believe that this approach finds interesting applications, as in the one of elastic material classification or approaches in orbit space description.

Invariant quantities of scalar–tensor theories for stellar structure

We present the relativistic hydrostatic equilibrium equations for a wide class of gravitational theories possessing a scalar–tensor representation. It turns out that the stellar structure equations can be written with respect to the scalar–tensor invariants, allowing to interpret their physical role.

Tensor Invariants for Gravitational Curvatures

<p>The tensor invariants (or invariants of tensors) for gravity gradient tensors (GGT, the second-order derivatives of the gravitational potential (GP)) have the advantage of not changing with the rotation of the corresponding coordinate system, which were widely applied in the study of gravity field (e.g., recovery of global gravity field, geophysical exploration, and gravity matching for navigation and positioning). With the advent of gravitational curvatures (GC, the third-order derivatives of the GP), the new definition of tensor invariants for gravitational curvatures can be proposed. In this contribution, the general expressions for the principal and main invariants of gravitational curvatures (PIGC and MIGC denoted as I and J systems) are presented. Taking the tesseroid, rectangular prism, sphere, and spherical shell as examples, the detailed expressions for the PIGC and MIGC are derived for these elemental mass bodies. Simulated numerical experiments based on these new expressions are performed compared to other gravity field parameters (e.g., GP, gravity vector (GV), GGT, GC, and tensor invariants for the GGT). Numerical results show that the PIGC and MIGC can provide additional information for the GC. Furthermore, the potential applications for the PIGC and MIGC are discussed both in spatial and spectral domains for the gravity field.</p>

Universal correlators and novel cosets in 2d RCFT

The two-character level-1 WZW models corresponding to Lie algebras in the Cvitanović-Deligne series A1, A2, G2, D4, F4, E6, E7 have been argued to form coset pairs with respect to the meromorphic E8,1 CFT. Evidence for this has taken the form of holomorphic bilinear relations between the characters. We propose that suitable 4-point functions of primaries in these models also obey bilinear relations that combine them into current correlators for E8,1, and provide strong evidence that these relations hold in each case. Different cases work out due to special identities involving tensor invariants of the algebra or hypergeometric functions. In particular these results verify previous calculations of correlators for exceptional WZW models, which have rather subtle features. We also find evidence that the intermediate vertex operator algebras A0.5 and E7.5, as well as the three-character A4,1 theory, also appear to satisfy the novel coset relation.
