چکیده

We present our recent studies on the dynamics of boundary N = 2 Liouville theory. We use the representation theory of N = 2 superconformal algebra and the method of modular bootstrap to derive three classes of boundary states of the N = 2 Liouville theory. Class 1 and 2 branes are analogues of ZZ and FZZT branes of N = 0, 1 Liouville theory while class 3 branes come from U(1) degrees of freedom. We compare our results with those of SL(2;R)/U(1) supercoset which is known to be T-dual to N = 2 Liouville theory and describes the geometry of 2d black hole. We find good agreements with known results in SL(2;R)/U(1) theory obtained by semi-classical analysis using DBI action. We also comment on the duality of N = 2 Liouville theory.

N = 2 Liouville Theory with Boundary

We study N = 2 Liouville theory with arbitrary central charge in the presence of boundaries. After reviewing the theory on the sphere and deriving some important structure constants, we investigate the boundary states of the theory from two approaches, one using the modular transformation property of annulus amplitudes and the other using the bootstrap of disc two-point functions containing deg...

Modular Bootstrap for Boundary N = 2 Liouville Theory

We study the boundary N = 2 Liouville theory based on the “modular bootstrap” approach. As fundamental conformal blocks we introduce the “extended characters” that are defined as the proper sums over spectral flows of irreducible characters of the N = 2 superconformal algebra (SCA) and clarify their modular transformation properties in models with rational central charges. We then try to classi...

Remarks on Liouville theory with boundary

The bootstrap for Liouville theory with conformally invariant boundary conditions will be discussed. After reviewing some results on one-and boundary two-point functions we discuss some analogue of the Cardy condition linking these data. This allows to determine the spectrum of the theory on the strip, and illustrates in what respects the bootstrap for noncompact conformal field theories with b...

On a class of systems of n Neumann two-point boundary value Sturm-Liouville type equations

Employing a three critical points theorem, we prove the existence ofmultiple solutions for a class of Neumann two-point boundary valueSturm-Liouville type equations. Using a local minimum theorem fordifferentiable functionals the existence of at least one non-trivialsolution is also ensured.
