Quantum Riemannian limit conjecture for collapsing CFTs
Quantum Riemannian limit conjecture for collapsing CFTs
Consider the collapsing family of unitary conformal field theories described above, with the minimal eigenvalue of the non-negative operator . Rescale by . A quantum Riemannian -space is the noncommutative geometric limit object defined in the source, and denotes the stated curvature-dimension inequality for its limiting operator. Quantum Riemannian limit conjecture. After this rescaling, there is a limit of the unitary CFTs in the sense of the source's topology, which is a quantum Riemannian -space, such that the limiting operator obtained from satisfies . This conjecture predicts that collapsed CFTs admit noncommutative Riemannian limits with non-negative Ricci curvature in the curvature-dimension sense; the source gives no resolution.
