Charged structure constants from modularity

Abstract: We derive a universal formula for the average heavy-heavy-light structure constants for 2d CFTs with non-vanishing u(1) charge. The derivation utilizes the modular properties of one-point functions on the torus. Refinements in N = 2 SCFTs, show that the resulting Cardy-like formula for the structure constants has precisely the same shifts in the central charge as that of the thermodynamic entropy found earlier. This analysis generalizes the recent results by Kraus and Maloney for CFTs with an additional global… Show more

“…First, there are error terms from approximating the discrete spectrum by a continuous density of states. This error for the density of states ρ(∆) that is insensitive to the spin has recently been quantified in [19,20] (see also Appendix C of [21]). Second, there are contributions to the density of states from the lowest twist, non-vacuum primary operators, corresponding to the last term in (2.13).…”

“…Among other things, there are error terms from approximating the discrete spectrum by a continuous density of states as mentioned in Section 3. It would be interesting to extend the analysis in [19][20][21] to control the error in a rigorous way. For a CFT with a finite twist gap (and hence necessarily irrational), there is generally no huge degeneracy at a given energy level, so we expect the error due to granularity to be much smaller than that of a rational CFT.…”

“…Another obvious extension of this work is to consider extended Virasoro algebra and putting the results 16 The author thanks Ken Intriligator for discussion on this point. of [4] on rigorous footing. It would also be interesting to investigate the torus two point function [29][30][31] using similar methods.…”
