The d-algebra structure conjecture for translation-dilation invariant QFTs
The d-algebra structure conjecture for translation-dilation invariant QFTs
Let , let be the bundle of local fields of a quantum field theory, and let be its fiber at the origin. Let be the group of parallel translations and dilatations. A -algebra is an algebra over the chains on the little -discs operad. The -algebra structure conjecture for QFTs. For any QFT on invariant under , in particular for any conformal field theory, the tensor product
has a structure of a -algebra. The source presents this as plausible and gives no proof; it connects the conjecture to homotopy Lie algebras governing translation-invariant deformations of QFTs.
