Null vectors are generalized to the case of indecomposable representations which are one of the main features of logarithmic conformal field theories. This is done by developing a compact formalism with the particular advantage that the…
It is discussed how a limiting procedure of conformal field theories may result in logarithmic conformal field theories with Jordan cells of arbitrary rank. This extends our work on rank-two Jordan cells. We also consider the limits of…

We study logarithmic operators in Coulomb gas models, and show that they occur when the ``puncture'' operator of the Liouville theory is included in the model. We also consider WZNW models for $SL(2,R)$, and for SU(2) at level 0, in which…
We describe an approach to logarithmic conformal field theories as limits of sequences of ordinary conformal field theories with varying central charge c. Logarithmic behaviour arises from degeneracies in the spectrum of scaling dimensions…

We present a classical conformal field theory on an arbitrary two-dimensional spacetime background. The dynamical object is a space-filling string, and the evolution may be thought as occurring on the manifold of the conformal group. The…
General properties of perturbed conformal field theory interacting with quantized Liouville gravity are considered in the simplest case of spherical topology. We discuss both short distance and large distance asymptotic of the partition…

The decomposition of correlation functions into conformal blocks is an indispensable tool in conformal field theory. For spinning correlators, non-trivial tensor structures are needed to mediate between the conformal blocks, which are…
We consider a generalization of the two-dimensional Liouville conformal field theory to any number of even dimensions. The theories consist of a log-correlated scalar field with a background $\mathcal{Q}$-curvature charge and an exponential…
We review conformal field theory on the plane in the conformal bootstrap approach. We introduce the main ideas of the bootstrap approach to quantum field theory, and how they apply to two-dimensional theories with local conformal symmetry.…
