Schwarzian Theory is a quantum field theory which has attracted a lot of attention in the physics literature in the context of two-dimensional quantum gravity, black holes and AdS/CFT correspondence. It is predicted to be universal and arise in many systems with emerging conformal symmetry, most notably in Sachdev--Ye--Kitaev random matrix model and Jackie--Teitelboim gravity.
In this talk we will discuss our recent progress on developing rigorous mathematical foundations of the Schwarzian Field Theory, including rigorous construction of the corresponding measure, calculation of both the partition function and a natural class of correlation functions, and a large deviation principle.
