Higher-point conformal blocks in the comb channel

Abstract

Abstract We compute M -point conformal blocks with scalar external and exchange operators in the so-called comb configuration for any M in any dimension d. Our computation involves repeated use of the operator product expansion to increase the number of external fields. We check our results in several limits and compare with the expressions available in the literature when M = 5 for any d, and also when M is arbitrary while d = 1.
