abstract

We initiate a systematic study of `t Hooft anomalies in Galilean field theories, focusing on two questions therein. In the first, we consider the non-relativistic theories obtained from a discrete light-cone quantization (DLCQ) of a relativistic theory with flavor or gravitational anomalies. We find that these anomalies survive the DLCQ, becoming mixed flavor/boost or gravitational/boost anomalies. We also classify the pure Weyl anomalies of Schr\"odinger theories, which are Galilean conformal field theories (CFTs) with $z=2$. There are no pure Weyl anomalies in even spacetime dimension, and the lowest-derivative anomalies in odd dimension are in one-to-one correspondence with those of a relativistic CFT in one dimension higher. These results classify many of the anomalies that arise in the field theories dual to string theory on Schr\"odinger spacetimes.

  1. Conformal Mapping of Non-Lorentzian Geometries in SU(1,2) Conformal Field Theory

    hep-th 2024-11 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    An explicit conformal mapping is derived between null-reduced R times S^3 and Omega-deformed Minkowski TNC geometries, giving the state-operator generator map H0 = (R^2 H + C/R^2 - J - N)/2 in SU(1,2) non-Lorentzian CFTs.
