In this paper, we introduce a ``CFT factory'' : a novel algorithm of methodically generating 2D lattice models that would flow to 2D conformal fixed points in the infrared. These 2D models are realised by giving critical boundary conditions…
Using the theory of diffusion in graphs, we propose a model to study mesoscopic transport through a diffusive quantum dot. The graph consists of three quasi-1D regions: a central region describing the dot, and two identical left- and right-…
We show that one can use some renormalized coupling constants to compute the free energy and correlation functions at all critical points of the two-dimensional topological gravity in a uniform way. In particular, one can derive the…
