The three-dimensional classical O($N$) model with a boundary has received renewed interest due to the discovery of the extraordinary-log boundary universality class for $2\leq N< N_c$. The critical value $N_c$ and the exponent of the…
Several years ago it was found that perturbation theory for two-dimensional O(N) models depends on boundary conditions even after the infinite volume limit has been taken termwise, provided $N>2$. There ensued a discussion whether the…
We consider a massive scalar field theory in anti-de Sitter space, in both minimally and non-minimally coupled cases. We introduce a relevant double-trace perturbation at the boundary, by carefully identifying the correct source and…
The use of finite entanglement scaling with matrix product states (MPS) has become a crucial tool for studying 1+1d critical lattice theories, especially those with emergent conformal symmetry. We argue that finite entanglement introduces a…
In this paper we discuss the effects of nontrivial boundary conditions or backgrounds, including non-perturbative ones, on the renormalization program for systems in two dimensions. Here we present an alternative renormalization procedure…
Thermal fluctuations of a critical system induce long-ranged Casimir forces between objects that couple to the underlying field. For two dimensional (2D) conformal field theories (CFT) we derive an exact result for the Casimir interaction…
We study overdamped stochastic dynamics confined by hard reflecting boundaries and show that the combination of boundary geometry and an anisotropic diffusion tensor generically generates directed motion. At the level of individual…

The critical 2-dimensional Ising model is studied with four types boundary conditions: free, fixed ferromagnetic, fixed antiferromagnetic, fixed double antiferromagnetic. Using Bond Propagation algorithms with surface fields, we obtained…
The bulk boundary correspondence, one of the most significant features of topological matter, theoretically connects the existence of edge modes at the boundary with topological invariants of the bulk spectral bands. However, it remains…
In this paper expressions are given for the bulk and boundary structure constants of D-series Virasoro minimal models on the upper half plane. It is the continuation of an earlier work on the A-series. The solution for the boundary theory…
We investigate $O(N)$ boundary conformal field theories (BCFTs) with boundary interactions in $d=4-\epsilon$ and $d=3-\epsilon$ employing the analytic bootstrap. By deriving universal constraints on conformal data, we show that infinitely…
Boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) is simply the study of conformal field theory (CFT) in domains with a boundary. It gains its significance because, in some ways, it is mathematically simpler: the algebraic and geometric structures of…
These lectures give an introduction to the methods of conformal field theory as applied to deriving certain results in two-dimensional critical percolation: namely the probability that there exists at least one cluster connecting two…
