"The Local Callan-Symanzik Equation: Structure and Applications"*

Location: Bloomberg Lecture Hall

Time: 1:30 PM

Speaker(s): Boaz Keren-Zur, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, 
Switzerland

*Description:*

The local Callan-Symanzik equation describes the response of a quantum 
field theory to local scale transformations in the presence of 
background sources. The consistency conditions associated with this 
anomalous equation can be used to derive powerful constraints on RG 
flows. We will discuss various aspects of the equation and present new 
results regarding the structure of the anomaly. We then use the equation 
to write correlation functions of the trace of the energy-momentum 
tensor off-criticality.
