We compute the $O(1/N^3)$ correction to the critical exponent $eta$ in the chiral XY or chiral Gross-Neveu model in $d$-dimensions. As the leading order vertex anomalous dimension vanishes, the direct application of the large $N$ conformal bootstrap formalism is not immediately possible. To circumvent this we consider the more general Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model for a general non-abelian Lie group. Taking the abelian limit of the exponents of this model produces those of the chiral XY model. Subsequently we provide improved estimates for $eta$ in the three dimensional chiral XY model for various values of $N$.

We study finite $N$ aspects of the $O(m)times O(N-m)$ vector model with quartic interactions in general $2leq d leq 6$ spacetime dimensions. This model has recently been shown to display the phenomenon of persistent symmetry breaking at a perturbative Wilson-Fisher-like fixed point in $d=4-epsilon$ dimensions. The large rank limit of the bi-conical model displays a conformal manifold and a moduli space of vacua. We find a set of three double trace scalar operators that are respectively irrelevant, relevant and marginal deformations of the conformal manifold in general $d$. We calculate the anomalous dimensions of the single and multi-trace scalar operators to the first sub-leading order in the large rank expansion. The anomalous dimension of the marginal operator does not vanish in general, indicating that the conformal manifold is lifted at finite $N$. In the case of equal ranks we are able to derive explicitly the scaling dimensions of various operators as functions of only $d$.
We use the critical point large $N$ formalism to calculate the critical exponents corresponding to the fermion mass operator and flavour non-singlet fermion bilinear operator in the universality class of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) coupled to the Gross-Neveu model for an $SU(N)$ flavour symmetry in $d$-dimensions. The $epsilon$ expansion of the exponents in $d$ $=$ $4$ $-$ $2epsilon$ dimensions are in agreement with recent three and four loop perturbative evaluations of both renormalization group functions of these operators. Estimates of the value of the non-singlet operator exponent in three dimensions are provided.
We compute, using the method of large spin perturbation theory, the anomalous dimensions and OPE coefficients of all leading twist operators in the critical $ O(N) $ model, to fourth order in the $ epsilon $-expansion. This is done fully within a bootstrap framework, and generalizes a recent result for the CFT-data of the Wilson-Fisher model. The anomalous dimensions we obtain for the $ O(N) $ singlet operators agree with the literature values, obtained by diagrammatic techniques, while the anomalous dimensions for operators in other representations, as well as all OPE coefficients, are new. From the results for the OPE coefficients, we derive the $ epsilon^4 $ corrections to the central charges $ C_T $ and $ C_J $, which are found to be compatible with the known large $ N $ expansions. Predictions for the central charge in the strongly coupled 3d model, including the 3d Ising model, are made for various values of $ N $, which compare favourably with numerical results and previous predictions.
In this work we explore the possibility of spontaneous breaking of global symmetries at all nonzero temperatures for conformal field theories (CFTs) in $D = 4$ space-time dimensions. We show that such a symmetry-breaking indeed occurs in certain families of non-supersymmetric large $N$ gauge theories at a planar limit. We also show that this phenomenon is accompanied by the system remaining in a persistent Brout-Englert-Higgs (BEH) phase at any temperature. These analyses are motivated by the work done in arXiv:2005.03676 where symmetry-breaking was observed in all thermal states for certain CFTs in fractional dimensions. In our case, the theories demonstrating the above features have gauge groups which are specific products of $SO(N)$ in one family and $SU(N)$ in the other. Working in a perturbative regime at the $Nrightarrowinfty$ limit, we show that the beta functions in these theories yield circles of fixed points in the space of couplings. We explicitly check this structure up to two loops and then present a proof of its survival under all loop corrections. We show that under certain conditions, an interval on this circle of fixed points demonstrates both the spontaneous breaking of a global symmetry as well as a persistent BEH phase at all nonzero temperatures. The broken global symmetry is $mathbb{Z}_2$ in one family of theories and $U(1)$ in the other. The corresponding order parameters are expectation values of the determinants of bifundamental scalar fields in these theories. We characterize these symmetries as baryon-like symmetries in the respective models.
We compute the OPE coefficients of the bosonic tensor model of cite{Benedetti:2019eyl} for three point functions with two fields and a bilinear with zero and non-zero spin. We find that all the OPE coefficients are real in the case of an imaginary tetrahedral coupling constant, while one of them is not real in the case of a real coupling. We also discuss the operator spectrum of the free theory based on the character decomposition of the partition function.
