abstract

Quantum Field Theories (QFTs) in Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime are often strongly coupled when the radius of AdS is large, and few methods are available to study them. In this work, we develop a Hamiltonian truncation method to compute the energy spectrum of QFTs in two-dimensional AdS. The infinite volume of constant timeslices of AdS leads to divergences in the energy levels. We propose a simple prescription to obtain finite physical energies and test it with numerical diagonalization in several models: the free massive scalar field, $\phi^4$ theory, Lee-Yang and Ising field theory. Along the way, we discuss spontaneous symmetry breaking in AdS and derive a compact formula for perturbation theory in quantum mechanics at arbitrary order. Our results suggest that all conformal boundary conditions for a given theory are connected via bulk renormalization group flows in AdS.

    The authors generalize the AdS₂ flow equations for QFT data to AdS₃ and AdS₄, add crossing-based closure and Padé-accelerated sums, and verify them in free theories.

  2. Systematic Improvement of Hamiltonian Truncation Effective Theory

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    NLO matching corrections with nonlocal terms are computed for 1+1D λφ⁴ Hamiltonian truncation, and the eigenvalue error is shown to scale as 1/Emax⁴, confirming the effective theory power counting.
