Implications of ANEC for SCFTs in four dimensions

Abstract We explore consequences of the Averaged Null Energy Condition (ANEC) for scaling dimensions ∆ of operators in four-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 superconformal field theories. We show that in many cases the ANEC bounds are stronger than the corresponding unitarity bounds on ∆. We anal...
