We study a class of solutions to the SL(2,R)_k Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation. First, logarithmic solutions which represent four-point correlation functions describing string scattering processes on three-dimensional Anti-de Sitter space…

An infinite set of operator-valued relations that hold for reducible representations of the sl(2)_k algebra is derived. These relations are analogous to those recently obtained by Zamolodchikov which involve logarithmic fields associated to…

Three explicit and equivalent representations for the monodromy of the conformal blocks in the SL(2,C)/SU(2) WZNW model are proposed in terms of the same quantity computed in Liouville field theory. We show that there are two possible…

We study four point correlation functions of the spin 1 operators in the SU(2)_0 WZNW model. The general solution which is everywhere single-valued has logarithmic terms and thus has a natural interpretation in terms of logarithmic…

It is well known that five-point function in Liouville field theory provides a representation of solutions of the SL(2,R)_k Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation at the level of four-point function. Here, we make use of such representation to…

In the spirit of the quantum Hamiltonian reduction we establish a relation between the chiral $n$-point functions, as well as the equations governing them, of the $A_1^{(1)}$ WZNW conformal theory and the corresponding Virasoro minimal…

In the SL(2) conformal field theory, we write down and analyze the analytic expression of the three-point functions of generic primary fields with definite SL(2) weights. Using these results, we discuss the operator product expansion in the…

We study the connection between Zamolodchikov operator-valued relations in Liouville field theory and in the SL(2,R)_k WZNW model. In particular, the classical relations in SL(2,R)_k can be formulated as a classical Liouville hierarchy in…

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 continue the study of the gl(1|1) Wess-Zumino-Witten model. The Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations for the one, two, three and four point functions are analyzed, for vertex operators corresponding to typical and projective representations.…

The SL(2, R) WZW model of strings on an ADS3 background is investigated in the spirit of J.Maldacena's and H.Ooguri's approach (hep-th/0001053) and (hep-th/0005183). Choosing a standard, but most general three-variable parametrization of…

We continue the study of hidden Z_2 symmetries of the four-point sl(2)_k Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation iniciated in hep-th/0508019. Here, we focus our attention on the four-point correlation function in those cases where one spectral…

We investigate the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov linear differential system. The coefficients of this system are rational functions. We prove that the solution of the KZ system is rational when $k$ is equal to two and $n$ is equal to three. While…

Correlation functions of gauged WZNW models are shown to satisfy a differential equation, which is a gauge generalization of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation.

We consider the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov system of linear differential equations. The coefficients of this system are generated by elements of the symmetric group $S_n$. We separately investigate the case $S_4$. In this case we solve the…

We review the Coulomb gas computation of three-point functions in the SL(2,R) WZNW model and obtain explicit expressions for generic states. These amplitudes have been computed in the past by this and other methods but the analytic…

We consider winding conserving four point functions in the SL(2,R) WZW model for states in arbitrary spectral flow sectors. We compute the leading order contribution to the expansion of the amplitudes in powers of the cross ratio of the…

We study the operator product expansion in the bosonic $SU(2)_0$ and SUSY $SU(2)_2$ WZNW models. We find that these OPEs contain both logarithmic operators and new conserved currents, leading to an extension of the symmetry group.

We show that the SU(2)_0 WZNW model has a hidden OSp(2|2)_{-2} symmetry. Both these theories are known to have logarithms in their correlation functions. We also show that, like OSp(2|2)_{-2}, the logarithmic structure present in the…
