Conformal Invariance and Integrable Theories
Integrable theories on the lattice having zero energy gap exhibit conformal invariance for long distances. It is shown here how to extract its conformal properties (central charge e and scaling dimensions) from the Bethe ansatz equations. The methods here exposed are applied to the six-vertex model and to the critical Potts model.
متن کاملChiral Compactifications of 6D Conformal Theories
We construct chiral N = 1 gauge theories in 4D by compactifying the 6D BlumIntriligator (1, 0) theories of 5-branes at Ak singularities on T 2 with a nontrivial bundle of the global U(1) symmetry of these theories. [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]
متن کاملChiral Deformations of Conformal Field Theories
We study general perturbations of two-dimensional conformal field theories by holomorphic fields. It is shown that the genus one partition function is controlled by a contact term (pre-Lie) algebra given in terms of the operator product expansion. These models have applications to vertex operator algebras, two-dimensional QCD, topological strings, holomorphic anomaly equations and modular prope...
متن کاملConformal Edge Currents in Chern-simons Theories
We develop elementary canonical methods for the quantization of abelian and nonabelian Chern-Simons actions using well known ideas in gauge theories and quantum gravity. Our approach does not involve choice of gauge or clever manipulations of functional integrals. When the spatial slice is a disc, it yields Witten’s edge states carrying a representation of the Kac-Moody algebra. The canonical e...
متن کاملChiral scale and conformal invariance in 2D quantum field theory.
It is well known that a local, unitary Poincaré-invariant 2D quantum field theory with a global scaling symmetry and a discrete non-negative spectrum of scaling dimensions necessarily has both a left and a right local conformal symmetry. In this Letter, we consider a chiral situation beginning with only a left global scaling symmetry and do not assume Lorentz invariance. We find that a left con...
