On conformal correlators and blocks with spinors in general dimensions

Isono, Hiroshi

Understand

We compute conformal correlation functions with spinor, tensor, and spinor-tensor primary fields in general dimensions with Euclidean and Lorentzian metrics.

The spinors are taken to be Dirac spinors, which exist for any dimensions.
For this, the embedding space formalism is employed and the polarisation spinors are introduced to simplify the computations.
Three-point functions are rewritten in terms of differential operators acting on scalar-scalar-tensor correlation functions.
