Logarithmic Operators in Conformal Field Theory
Conformal field theories with correlation functions which have logarithmic singularities are considered. It is shown that those singularities imply the existence of additional operators in the theory which together with ordinary primary operators form the basis of the Jordan cell for the operator L0. An example of the field theory possessing such correlation functions is given.
متن کاملTopological Disorder Operators in Three-Dimensional Conformal Field Theory
Many abelian gauge theories in three dimensions flow to interacting conformal field theories in the infrared. We define a new class of local operators in these conformal field theories which are not polynomial in the fundamental fields and create topological disorder. They can be regarded as higher-dimensional analogues of twist and windingstate operators in free 2d CFTs. We call them monopole ...
متن کاملOperads and Conformal Field Theory Lecture 1: Conformal Field Theory
Physicists have developed very advanced methods to compute such integrals. For example, the famous Feynman diagram technique allows us to compute the above integral for a rather particular function S(x), a small perturbation of a positive de nite quadratic form in R . Sometimes, elaborate techniques of physicists to compute simple things nd an amazing application to very general things in mathe...
متن کاملCircular loop operators in conformal field theories
We use the conformal group to study non-local operators in conformal field theories. A plane or a sphere (of any dimension) is mapped to itself by some subgroup of the conformal group, hence operators confined to that submanifold may be classified in representations of this subgroup. For local operators this gives the usual definition of conformal dimension and spin, but some conformal field th...
