An Oscillator Construction for 4d CFT — •Katharina Wölfl — Theoretisch-Physikalisches-Institut, FSU Jena

Conformal blocks are the building blocks of correlation functions, which encode the dynamical properties of a CFT, thus solving it. They are completely determined by conformal symmetry, however the calculations often prove to be rather tedious and restricted to special cases. I will therefore present an oscillator construction for the four-dimensional Euclidean Conformal Field Theory, which can be used to calculate lower point correlation functions and promises results for higher-point conformal blocks.
