Highly energetic particles traveling in the background of an asymptotically AdS black hole experience a Shapiro time delay and an angle deflection. These quantities are related to the Regge limit of a heavy-heavy-light-light four-point function of scalar operators in the dual CFT. The Schwarzschild radius of the black hole in AdS units is proportional to the ratio of the conformal dimension of the heavy operator and the central charge. This ratio serves as a useful expansion parameter; its power counts the number of stress tensors in the multi-stress tensor operators which contribute to the four-point function. In the cross-channel the four-point function is determined by the OPE coefficients and anomalous dimensions of the heavy-light double-trace operators. We explain how this data can be obtained and explicitly compute the first and second order terms in the expansion of the anomalous dimensions. We observe perfect agreement with known results in the lightcone limit, which were obtained by computing perturbative corrections to the energy eigenstates in AdS spacetimes.

  1. OPE = QNM

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.5 of 10

    OPE and QNM representations of the mixed retarded correlator overlap in complex time, giving an explicit map, sum rules, and new QNM asymptotics for large-N thermal CFTs.

  2. Bouncing singularities and thermal correlators on line defects

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Retarded correlators of displacement operators on line defects in holographic thermal CFTs exhibit bouncing singularities that match between interior-sensitive WKB and boundary-only OPE analyses.

  3. Heavy-Heavy-Light Asymptotics from Thermal Correlators

    hep-th 2025-06 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    The authors derive and test systematic large-dimension asymptotics for heavy-heavy-light OPE coefficients in 3D CFTs from thermal one-point functions on S1 x S2.

  4. Thermal field theory correlators in the large-$N$ limit and the spectral duality relation

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The spectral duality relation, previously found for 3d CFTs and 4d black holes, is shown to hold for meromorphic thermal two-point correlators in any dimension and for correlators related by double-trace deformations,...
