Publication:2340685
Infinite-dimensional groups and algebras motivated by physics, including Virasoro, Kac-Moody, (W)-algebras and other current algebras and their representations (81R10) Yang-Mills and other gauge theories in quantum field theory (81T13) Two-dimensional field theories, conformal field theories, etc. in quantum mechanics (81T40)
Abstract: We study conformal blocks of conformal field theories with a W3 symmetry algebra in the limit where the central charge is large. In this limit, we compute the four-point block as a special case of an sl3-invariant function. In the case when two of the four fields are semi-degenerate, we check that our results agree with the block's combinatorial expansion as a sum over Young diagrams. We also show that such a block obeys a sixth-order differential equation, and that it has an unexpected singularity at z=-1, in addition to the expected singularities at z=0,1,infinity.
