Stochastic processes and conformal invariance.
We discuss a one-dimensional model of a fluctuating interface with a dynamic exponent z=1. The events that occur are adsorption, which is local, and desorption which is nonlocal and may take place over regions of the order of the system size. In the thermodynamic limit, the time dependence of the system is given by characters of the c=0 logarithmic conformal field theory of percolation. This im...
متن کاملSLEκ Growth Processes and Conformal Field Theories
SLEκ stochastic processes describe growth of random curves which, in some cases, may be identified with boundaries of two dimensional critical percolating clusters. By generalizing SLEκ growths to formal Markov processes on the central extension of the 2d conformal group, we establish a connection between conformal field theories with central charges cκ = 1 2(3κ−8)( 6 κ−1) and zero modes – obse...
متن کاملConformal 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 کاملDynamics, Probability, and Conformal Invariance
The study of dynamics in the plane has recently seen a surge in interest due to three recent breakthroughs: the Sullivan-McMullen-Lyubich proof of the Feigenbaum Universality, the introduction by O. Schramm of SLE processes, and the work of S. Smirnov on percolation. The fields of Holomorphic Dynamics, SLE, and Conformal Field Theory (CFT) are now seen to be closely linked, the glue being provi...
متن کاملWeyl-Gauging and Conformal Invariance
Scale-invariant actions in arbitrary dimensions are investigated in curved space to clarify the relation between scale-, Weyland conformal invariance on the classical level. The global Weyl-group is gauged. Then the class of actions is determined for which Weyl-gauging may be replaced by a suitable coupling to the curvature (Ricci gauging). It is shown that this class is exactly the class of ac...
