We present the theory of a two-dimensional conformal scalar field using path integral techniques. We derive the conformal anomaly using an adaptation of the method of Fujikawa, and compare the result with a derivation based on a Pauli-Villars measure, where the anomaly is shifted from the path integral measure to the energy-momentum trace. In the path integral approach the energy-momentum is a ...

The critical behaviour of anisotropic Heisenberg models with two kinds of antiferromagnetically exchange-coupled centers are studied numerically by using finite-size calculations and conformal invariance. These models exhibit the interesting property of ferrimagnetism instead of antiferromagnetism. Most of our results are centered in the mixed Heisenberg chain where we have at even (odd) sites ...

Unsupervised domain adaptation for object detectors addresses the problem of improving cross-domain robustness detection from label-rich to label-poor domains, which has been explored in many studies. However, one important issue terms when apply algorithm geospatial not fully considered literature. In this paper, we tackle detecting moment or change-point images changes based on conformal test...

It is proved that in the Voronoi model for percolation in dimension 2 and 3, the crossing probabilities are asymptotically invariant under conformal change of metric. To deene Voronoi percolation on a manifold M , you need a measure , and a Riemannian metric ds. Points are scattered according to a Poisson point process on (M;), with some density. Each cell in the Voronoi tessellation determined...

Let J be the Julia set of a conformal dynamics f . Provided that f is polynomial-like we prove that the harmonic measure on J is mutually absolutely continuous with the measure of maximal entropy if and only if f is conformally equivalent to a polynomial. This is no longer true for generalized polynomial-like maps. But for such dynamics the coincidence of classes of these two measures turns out...

We intend to clarify the interplay between boundary terms and conformal transformations in scalar-tensor theories of gravity. We first consider the action for pure gravity in five dimensions and show that, on compactifing a la Kaluza-Klein to four dimensions, one obtains the correct boundary terms in the Jordan (or String) Frame form of the Brans-Dicke action. Further, we analyze how the bounda...

We use gauge-gravity duality to model the crossover from a conformal critical point to a confining Fermi liquid, driven by a change in fermion density. The short-distance conformal physics is represented by an anti-de Sitter geometry, which terminates into a confining state along the emergent spatial direction. The Luttinger relation, relating the area enclosed by the Fermi surfaces to the ferm...
