We present an infinite set of higher equations of motion in N=2 supersymmetric Liouville field theory. They are in one to one correspondence with the degenerate representations and are enumerated in addition to the U(1) charge \omega by the…
We derive a relation between correlation functions of supergroup WZNW models and conformal field theories with extended superconformal symmetry. The supergroups considered have a bosonic subgroup of the form SL(2) x A for some Lie group A.…
Superconformal field theory with $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry in four dimensional spacetime provides a prime playground to study strongly coupled phenomena in quantum field theory. Its rigid structure ensures valuable analytic control over…
We present the basic $\mathcal{N} =1$ superconformal field theories in four-dimensional de Sitter space-time, namely the non-abelian super Yang-Mills theory and the chiral multiplet theory with gauge interactions or cubic superpotential.…
A chiral superfield strength in N=2 conformal supergravity at linearized level is obtained by acting two superspace derivatives on N=4 chiral superfield strength which can be described in terms of N=4 twistor superfields. By decomposing…
Under the assumption that degenerate fields exist, diagonal CFTs such as Liouville theory can be solved analytically using the conformal bootstrap method. Here we generalize this approach to non-diagonal CFTs, i.e. CFTs whose primary fields…
Any four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} \geqslant 2$ superconformal field theory possess a protected subsector isomorphic to a two-dimensional chiral algebra \cite{Beem:2013sza}. The goal of these lectures is to provide an introduction to the…
We calculate three- and four-point functions in super Liouville theory coupled to super Coulomb gas on world sheets with spherical topology. We first integrate over the zero mode and assume that a parameter takes an integer value. After…
We construct the second quantized action for sub-critical closed string field theory with zero cosmological constant in dimensions $ 2 \leq D < 26$, generalizing the non-polynomial closed string field theory action proposed by the author…
We construct Z_M, M= 2, 3, 4, 6 orbifold models of the N=2 superconformal field theories with central charge c=3. Then we check the description of the Z_3, Z_4 and Z_6 orbifolds by the N=2 superconformal Landau-Ginzburg models with c=3, by…
In this thesis we study two-dimensional conformal field theories with Virasoro algebra symmetry, following the conformal bootstrap approach. Under the assumption that degenerate fields exist, we provide an extension of the analytic…
Initiated by Polyakov in his 1981 seminal work, the study of two-dimensional Liouville Conformal Field Theory has drawn considerable attention over the past decades. Recent progress in the understanding of conformal geometry in dimension…
In the two-dimensional Liouville conformal field theory, correlation functions involving a degenerate field satisfy partial differential equations due to the decoupling of the null descendant field. On the other hand, the instanton…
We study several aspects of the $N=1$ super Liouville theory. We show that certain elements of the fusion matrix in the Neveu-Schwarz sector related to the structure constants according to the same rules which we observe in rational…
We solve the Riemann-Hilbert problem on the sphere topology for three singularities of finite strength and a fourth one infinitesimal, by determining perturbatively the Poincare' accessory parameters. In this way we compute the…
It is shown that certain extremal correlators in four-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories (including N=4 super-Yang-Mills as a special case) have a free-field functional form. It is further argued that the coupling constant…
It is believed that the two-dimensional massless $\mathcal{N}=2$ Wess--Zumino model becomes the $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theory (SCFT) in the infrared (IR) limit. We examine this theoretical conjecture of the Landau--Ginzburg…
We study four dimensional field theory from the low-energy effective theory of Type I, II or heterotic string theories. Chiral fermions in four dimensions are obtained by several mechanisms. Especially, the background flux is one of the…
Primary superfields for a two dimensional Euclidean superconformal field theory are constructed as sections of a sheaf over a graded Riemann sphere. The construction is then applied to the N=3 Neveu-Schwarz case. Various quantities in the…
Two different kinds of interactions between a ${Z}_{n}$-parafermionic and a Liouville field theory are considered. For generic values of $n$, the effective central charges describing the UV behavior of both models are calculated in the…
