Conformal dimension is a fundamental invariant of metric spaces, particularly suited to the study of self-similar spaces, such as spaces with an expanding self-covering (e.g. Julia sets of complex rational functions). The dynamics of these…

A fundamental theorem of Liouville asserts that positive entire harmonic functions in Euclidean spaces must be constant. A remarkable Liouville-type theorem of Caffarelli-Gidas-Spruck states that positive entire solutions of $-\Delta u=u^{…
This paper is the first of a series of works on the conformal bootstrap in Liouville conformal field theory (CFT) with boundaries. We focus here on the case of the annulus with two boundary insertions, each of which lies on the different…
We study the accessory parameter problem for four-punctured spheres from the point of view of modular forms. The value of the accessory parameter giving the uniformization is characterized as the unique zero of a system of equations. This…
The recursive relation for the 1-point conformal block on a torus is derived and used to prove the identities between conformal blocks recently conjectured by R. Poghossian. As an illustration of the efficiency of the recurrence method the…
We study the set of curvature functions which a given compact manifold with boundary can possess. First, we prove that the sign demanded by the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem is a necessary and sufficient condition for a given function to be the…
The modular matrix for the generic 1-point conformal blocks on the torus is expressed in terms of the fusion matrix for the 4-point blocks on the sphere. The modular invariance of the toric 1-point functions in the Liouville field theory…

We evaluate one-point correlation numbers on the torus in the Liouville theory coupled to the conformal matter M(2,2p+1). We find agreement with the recent results obtained in the matrix model approach.
We show that all self-adjoint extensions of semi-bounded Sturm--Liouville operators with general limit-circle endpoint(s) can be obtained via an additive singular form bounded self-adjoint perturbation of rank equal to the deficiency…
