We study the limit of D-series minimal models when the central charge tends to a generic irrational value $c\in (-\infty, 1)$. We find that the limit theory's diagonal three-point structure constant differs from that of Liouville theory by…
In a recent paper (arXiv:0906.3219) the representation of Nekrasov partition function in terms of nontrivial two-dimensional conformal field theory has been suggested. For non-vanishing value of the deformation parameter…
We define the two-dimensional $O(n)$ conformal field theory as a theory that includes the critical dilute and dense $O(n)$ models as special cases, and depends analytically on the central charge. For generic values of $n\in\mathbb{C}$, we…
The possibility of extending the Liouville Conformal Field Theory from values of the central charge $c \geq 25$ to $c \leq 1$ has been debated for many years in condensed matter physics as well as in string theory. It was only recently…
We develop a coarse-graining procedure for two-dimensional models of fluctuating loops by mapping them to interface models. The result is an effective field theory for the scaling limit of loop models, which is found to be a Liouville…
We give a recursive method to compute the classical conformal blocks in Liouville field theory. The values of the expansion coefficients are given by an algebraic scheme which works to all orders. The algebraic expression of the intervening…
Correlation functions in Euclidean conformal field theories in four dimensions are expressed as representations of the conformal group $SL(2,\H)$, $\H$ being the field of quaternions, on the configuration space of points. The…
Conformal blocks in any number of dimensions depend on two variables z, zbar. Here we study their restrictions to the special "diagonal" kinematics z = zbar, previously found useful as a starting point for the conformal bootstrap analysis.…
We construct a set of non-rational conformal field theories that consist of deformations of Toda field theory for sl(n). Besides conformal invariance, the theories still enjoy a remnant infinite-dimensional affine symmetry. The case n=3 is…
We consider the 2D super Liouville gravity coupled to the minimal superconformal theory. We analyze the physical states in the theory and give the general form of the n-point correlation numbers on the sphere in terms of integrals over the…
Conformal blocks of Liouville theory have a Coulomb-gas representation as Dotsenko-Fateev (DF) integrals over the positions of screening charges. For q-deformed Liouville, the conformal blocks on a sphere with an arbitrary number of…
We study the correlation functions of logarithmic conformal field theories. First, assuming conformal invariance, we explicitly calculate two-- and three-- point functions. This calculation is done for the general case of more than one…
Liouville conformal field theory is a prototypical example of an exactly solvable quantum field theory, in the sense that the correlation functions in an arbitrary background can be determined exactly using only the constraints of unitarity…
A four point function of basic Neveu-Schwarz exponential fields is constructed in the N = 1 supersymmetric Liouville field theory. Although the basic NS structure constants were known previously, we present a new derivation, based on a…
A tensorial representation of $\phi^4$ field theory introduced in Phys. Rev. D. 93, 085005 (2016) is studied close to six dimensions, with an eye towards a possible realization of an interacting conformal field theory in five dimensions. We…
In this thesis we consider four dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories, in presence of line defects such as Wilson loops. In this set up, using supersymmetric localization, we compute many observables, such as the vacuum expectation…
We study conformal blocks of conformal field theories with a W3 symmetry algebra in the limit where the central charge is large. In this limit, we compute the four-point block as a special case of an sl3-invariant function. In the case when…
Conformal blocks for four point functions for fields with arbitrary spins in two dimensions are obtained by evaluating an appropriate integral. The results are just products of hypergeometric functions of the conformally invariant cross…
Liouville field theory is considered on domains with conformally invariant boundary conditions. We present an explicit expression for the three point function of boundary fields in terms of the fusion coefficients which determine the…
Classical conformal blocks naturally appear in the large central charge limit of 2D Virasoro conformal blocks. In the $AdS_{3}/CFT_{2}$ correspondence, they are related to classical bulk actions and are used to calculate entanglement…
