I show that the expectation value of the composite field $T{\bar T}$, built from the components of the energy-momentum tensor, is expressed exactly through the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor itself. The relation is derived in two-dimensional quantum field theory under broad assumptions, and does not require integrability.

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    In TTbar-deformed anomalous CFT2 the chaos bound stays saturated while butterfly velocity depends nontrivially on deformation strength and anomaly, with a Hagedorn regime where the chaotic response turns complex.

    Deformed two-point correlators in mixed TbarT/root-TbarT CFTs admit an explicit kernel representation as weighted averages of undeformed CFT correlators over conformal dimensions, with the two-point function obtained ...
