The two-dimensional $Q$-state Potts model with real couplings has a first-order transition for $Q>4$. We study a loop-model realization in which $Q$ is a continuous parameter. This model allows for the collision of a critical and a…
We show that the conformally invariant boundary conditions for the three-state Potts model are exhausted by the eight known solutions. Their structure is seen to be similar to the one in a free field theory that leads to the existence of…
