Boundary Conformal Field Theory∗
Boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) is simply the study of conformal field theory (CFT) in domains with a boundary. It gains its significance because, in some ways, it is mathematically simpler: the algebraic and geometric structures of CFT appear in a more straightforward manner; and because it has important applications: in string theory in the physics of open strings and D-branes, and in ...
متن کاملBoundary Logarithmic Conformal Field Theory
We discuss the effect of boundaries in boundary logarithmic conformal field theory and show, with reference to both c = −2 and c = 0 models, how they produce new features even in bulk correlation functions which are not present in the corresponding models without boundaries. We discuss the modification of Cardy’s relation between boundary states and bulk quantities. PACS codes: 11.25.Hf, 11.10.Kk
متن کاملMonopole-catalysed Baryon Decay: a Boundary Conformal Field Theory Approach
Monopole-mediated baryon number violation, the Callan-Rubakov effect, is reexamined using boundary conformal field theory techniques. It is shown that the low-energy behaviour is described simply by free fermions with a conformally invariant boundary condition at the dyon location. When the number of fermion flavours is greater than two, this boundary condition is of a non-trivial type which ha...
متن کاملLogarithmic conformal field theory with boundary†
This lecture note covers topics on boundary conformal field theory, modular transformations and the Verlinde formula, and boundary logarithmic CFT. An introductory review on CFT with boundary and a discussion of its applications to logarithmic cases are given. LCFT at c = −2 is mainly discussed. This article is based on the lectures at the International Summer School on Logarithmic Conformal Fi...
متن کاملConformal Field Theory, Boundary Conditions and Applications to String Theory
This is an introduction to two-dimensional conformal field theory and its applications in string theory. Modern concepts of conformal field theory are explained, and it is outlined how they are used in recent studies of D-branes in the strong curvature regime by means of CFT on surfaces with boundary.
