Notes on Tensor Models and Tensor Field Theories

Abstract: Tensor models and tensor field theories admit a 1/N expansion and a melonic large N limit which is simpler than the planar limit of random matrices and richer than the large N limit of vector models. They provide examples of analytically tractable but non trivial strongly coupled quantum field theories and lead to a new class of conformal field theories. We present a compact introduction to the topic, covering both some of the classical results in the field, like the details of the 1/N expansion, as well as re… Show more

“…In order to better understand the conformal field theory at such IR fixed points, 14 we wish to compute the spectrum of operators that appear in the operator-product expansion (OPE) of φ abc (x) φabc (0). Schematically, these are expected to be the bilinear operators φ abc (∂ 2 ) n φabc , and their spectrum can be obtained using the conformal Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equation [29,42], or equivalently, the spectral decomposition of the four-point function [35,56,64].…”

“…In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in a new large-N behaviour: the melonic limit of tensor models [4][5][6][7]. This particular limit arises when we study models with N r fields transforming in the fundamental representation of O(N ) r .…”
