An L-function Approach to 2D CFT
Eric Perlmutter, IPhT-Saclay, Paris,

We construct L-functions for general modular-invariant 2D CFTs, providing a new analytic language for studying high-energy spectra and their resolution. We apply this approach to the modular bootstrap at large central charge, and to questions of chaos and spectral rigidity in 2D CFT.

The talk is in 469 Lauritsen.
