Abstract

I will talk about the recently published https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.04387, where we look at resurgence of the large charge expansion of the identity block in CFT2. Specifically, we do the resurgence analysis of four-point functions with degenerate operators at finite cross-ratio z, both for 4 heavy operators and two heavy two light “HHLL". We see how resurgence sheds light on semi-classical approximations and their regimes of validity. We expand on how Stokes phenomena in the asymptotic series in large c are controlled by the cross-ratio z, that they reveal the other block in the OPE, and that this solves the “forbidden singularities” of Kaplan et al., which might be related to information loss and suggest future directions for resurgence in CFT2.
