Expectation value of composite field $T{\bar T}$ in two-dimensional quantum field theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

I show that the expectation value of the composite field TTˉT{\bar T}, built from the components of the energy-momentum tensor, is expressed exactly through the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor itself. The relation is derived in two-dimensional quantum field theory under broad assumptions, and does not require integrability.
