Constraints on the CFT three point functions

We discuss methods to analytically obtain constraints on the OPE coefficients of an arbitrary CFT (in d>3 dimensions). One of them is the positivity of the energy flux; another one involves deep inelastic scattering thought experiments. We derive bounds on the OPE coefficients of various operator using both methods. We discuss under which conditions the constraints derived are equivalent .
