S-matrices in the holomorphic modular bootstrap approach

We numerically determine the S-matrix by using connection formulae in the modular linear differential equation (MLDE) approach to the holomorphic modular bootstrap. We then determine exact formulae using the fact that entries in the S -matrix are integer entries in a cyclotomic extension of the field of rational numbers. This provides a method that is intrinsic to the MLDE setup and does not require inputs outside this framework. The method is illustrated with a selection of examples.

Abstract

We numerically determine the S-matrix by using connection formulae in the modular linear differential equation (MLDE) approach to the holomorphic modular bootstrap. We then determine exact formulae using the fact that entries in the S -matrix are integer entries in a cyclotomic extension of the field of rational numbers. This provides a method that is intrinsic to the MLDE setup and does not require inputs outside this framework. The method is illustrated with a selection of examples.
