چکیده

We discuss in this paper the behaviour of minimal models of conformal theory perturbed by the operator Φ 13 at the boundary. Using the RSOS restriction of the sine-Gordon model, adapted to the boundary problem, a series of boundary flows between different set of conformally invariant boundary conditions are described. Generalizing the " staircase " phenomenon discovered by Al. Zamolodchikov, we find that an analytic continuation of the boundary sinh-Gordon model provides a flow interpolating not only between all minimal models in the bulk, but also between their possible conformal boundary conditions. In the particular case where the bulk sinh-Gordon coupling is turned to zero, we obtain a boundary roaming trajectory in the c = 1 theory, that interpolates between all the possible spin s Kondo models.

Minimal model boundary flows and c = 1 CFT

We consider perturbations of unitary minimal models by boundary fields. Initially we consider the models in the limit as c → 1 and find that the relevant boundary fields all have simple interpretations in this limit. This interpretation allows us to conjecture the IR limits of flows in the unitary minimal models generated by the fields φ rr of 'low' weight. We check this conjecture using the tr...

Boundary RG Flows of N = 2 Minimal Models

We study boundary renormalization group flows of N = 2 minimal models using Landau-Ginzburg description of B-type. A simple algebraic relation of matrices is relevant. We determine the pattern of the flows and identify the operators that generate them. As an application, we show that the charge lattice of B-branes in the level k minimal model is Zk+2. We also reproduce the fact that the charge ...

On Perturbations of Unitary Minimal Models by Boundary Condition Changing Operators

In this note we consider boundary perturbations in the A-Series unitary minimal models by φr,r+2 fields on superpositions of boundaries. In particular, we consider perturbations by boundary condition changing operators. Within conformal perturbation theory we explicitly map out the space of perturbative renormalisation group flows for the example φ13 and find that this sheds light on more gener...

A Composite Finite Difference Scheme for Subsonic Transonic Flows (RESEARCH NOTE).

This paper presents a simple and computationally-efficient algorithm for solving steady two-dimensional subsonic and transonic compressible flow over an airfoil. This work uses an interactive viscous-inviscid solution by incorporating the viscous effects in a thin shear-layer. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the Navier-Stokes equations to a parabolic set of coupled, non-linear partial diff...

Large-eddy simulation of turbulent flow over an array of wall-mounted cubes submerged in an emulated atmospheric boundary-layer

Turbulent flow over an array of wall-mounted cubic obstacles has been numerically investigated using large-eddy simulation. The simulations have been performed using high-performance computations with local cluster systems. The array of cubes are fully submerged in a simulated deep rough-wall atmospheric boundary-layer with high turbulence intensity characteristics of environmental turbulent fl...
