Description

We generalize the idea of 1307.6856 to build conformal blocks of a generic CFT (in dimension d>2) using a recurrence relation, idea which has roots in a paper by Zamolodchikov (1984) originally applied to Virasoro blocks in 2 dimensions. Generalizing this construction we are able to find a recurrence relation to build conformal blocks associated to the four point function of vector operators.
