Finite Size Scaling and Conformal Curves
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this letter we investigate the finite size scaling effect on SLE(κ, ρ) and boundary conformal field theories and find the effect of fixing some boundary conditions on the free energy per length of SLE(κ, ρ). As an application, we will derive the entanglement entropy of quantum systems in critical regime in presence of boundary operators.

Finite-size Corrections for Integrable Systems and Conformal Properties of Six-vertex Models
Statistical systems at second-order phase-transition points should exhibit conformal invariance at long distances. Their conformal properties can be analysed by investigating finite-size scaling behaviour. For integrable lattice models in two dimensions, methods are proposed to calculate, from the Bethe ansatz solution, the conformal anomaly c and all scaling dimensions. As an application resul...
متن کاملStatistics of harmonic measure and winding of critical curves from conformal field theory
Fractal geometry of random curves appearing in the scaling limit of critical two-dimensional statistical systems is characterized by their harmonic measure and winding angle. The former is the measure of the jaggedness of the curves while the latter quantifies their tendency to form logarithmic spirals. We show how these characteristics are related to local operators of conformal field theory a...
متن کاملDroplet shapes on structured substrates and conformal invariance
We consider the finite-size scaling of equilibrium droplet shapes for fluid adsorption (at bulk two-phase coexistence) on heterogeneous substrates and also in wedge geometries in which only a finite domain Λ A of the substrate is completely wet. For three-dimensional systems with short-ranged forces we use renormalization group ideas to establish that both the shape of the droplet height and th...
متن کاملConformal off-diagonal boundary density profiles on a semi-infinite strip
The off-diagonal profile φ od (v) associated with a local operator φ̂(v) (order parameter or energy density) close to the boundary of a semi-infinite strip with width L is obtained at criticality using conformal methods. It involves the surface exponent x φ and displays a simple universal behaviour which crosses over from surface finite-size scaling when v/L is held constant to corner finite-siz...
متن کاملUniversal amplitude-exponent relation for the Ising model on sphere-like lattices
– Conformal field theory predicts finite-size scaling amplitudes of correlation lengths universally related to critical exponents on sphere-like, semi-finite systems S×R of arbitrary dimensionality d. Numerical studies have up to now been unable to validate this result due to the intricacies of lattice discretisation of such curved spaces. We present a cluster-update Monte Carlo study of the Is...
