Calabi-Yau CFTs and Random Matrices (2107.11461v2)
Published 23 Jul 2021 in hep-th, math-ph, math.DG, and math.MP
Abstract: Using numerical methods for finding Ricci-flat metrics, we explore the spectrum of local operators in two-dimensional conformal field theories defined by sigma models on Calabi-Yau targets at large volume. Focusing on the examples of K3 and the quintic, we show that the spectrum, averaged over a region in complex structure moduli space, possesses the same statistical properties as the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble of random matrix theory.
