Local scale invariance, conformal invariance and dynamical scaling
Building on an analogy with conformal invariance, local scale transformations consistent with dynamical scaling are constructed. Two types of local scale invariance are found which act as dynamical space-time symmetries of certain non-local free field theories. Physical applications include uniaxial Lifshitz points and ageing in simple ferromagnets. Scale invariance is a central notion of moder...
متن کاملScale invariance implies conformal invariance for the three-dimensional Ising model.
Using the Wilson renormalization group, we show that if no integrated vector operator of scaling dimension -1 exists, then scale invariance implies conformal invariance. By using the Lebowitz inequalities, we prove that this necessary condition is fulfilled in all dimensions for the Ising universality class. This shows, in particular, that scale invariance implies conformal invariance for the t...
متن کاملChapter 18 Conformal Invariance
At the beginning of the semester we motivated our investigation of symmetries by illustrating that, given differential equations which were symmetric, the solutions had to transform into each other under the symmetries as a representation of the symmetry. The first illustrations considered Schrödinger equations with symmetric potentials, such as the electrons in the spherically symmetric potent...
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 کاملPhenomenology of local scale invariance : from conformal invariance to dynamical scaling
Statistical systems displaying a strongly anisotropic or dynamical scaling behaviour are characterized by an anisotropy exponent θ or a dynamical exponent z. For a given value of θ (or z), we construct local scale transformations, which can be viewed as scale transformations with a space-time-dependent dilatation factor. Two distinct types of local scale transformations are found. The first typ...
