The Lagrangian of Quantum Chromodynamics is invariant under conformal transformations. Although this symmetry is broken by quantum corrections, it has important consequences for strong interactions at short distances and provides one with powerful tools in practical calculations. In this review we give a short exposition of the relevant ideas, techniques and applications of conformal symmetry to various problems of interest.

  1. Infinite Symmetry Algebras in Four-Dimensional Conformal Field Theories

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Universal light-ray operators from the stress tensor generate the wedge subalgebra of w_{1+∞} in generic interacting 4D CFTs, with finite one-point functions matching the full tower of soft graviton and gluon factors.

  2. Bootstrapping Pion Form Factors at Large $N$

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Bootstrap analysis of meromorphic observables in large-N QCD yields universal and SVZ-type bounds that constrain chiral Lagrangian parameters and link hadronic data to asymptotic freedom.

  3. Regge trajectories, detectors, and distributions in the critical ${\rm O}(N)$ model

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the critical O(N) model, renormalizing detector and distribution light-ray operators at leading order in 1/N yields Regge intercepts, the leading-twist splitting function, and a BFKL-type anomalous spin.

  4. Improved Standard-Model predictions for $\eta^{(\prime)}\to \ell^+ \ell^-$

    hep-ph 2025-12 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Updated SM predictions yield Br(η→e⁺e⁻)=5.37(4)(2)[4]×10⁻⁹, Br(η→μ⁺μ⁻)=4.54(4)(2)[4]×10⁻⁶, Br(η'→e⁺e⁻)=1.80(2)(3)[3]×10⁻¹⁰, and Br(η'→μ⁺μ⁻)=1.22(2)(2)[3]×10⁻⁷, with a mild 1.6σ tension in the η→μ⁺μ⁻ channel.

    hep-ph 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 1.0 of 10

    A review of energy correlators and their role in QCD, collider experiments, and formal quantum field theory.
