We determine the spectrum and correlation functions of Liouville theory with a central charge less than (or equal) one. This completes the definition of Liouville theory for all complex values of the central charge. The spectrum is always…
The origin of the rather mysterious duality symmetry found in quantum Liouville theory is investigated by considering the Liouville theory as the reduction of a WZW-like theory in which the form of the potential for the Cartan field is not…
We obtain a new Liouville comparison principle for weak solutions $(u,v)$ of semilinear parabolic second-order partial differential inequalities of the form $$u_t -{\mathcal L}u- |u|^{q-1}u\geq v_t -{\mathcal L}v- |v|^{q-1}v (*)$$ in the…
We introduce and study an approximate solution of the p-Laplace equation, and a linearlization $L_{\epsilon}$ of a perturbed p-Laplace operator. By deriving an $L_{\epsilon}$-type Bochner's formula and a Kato type inequality, we prove a…
The three-point functions for minimal models coupled to gravity are derived in the operator approach to Liouville theory which is based on its $U_q(sl(2))$ quantum group structure. The result is shown to agree with matrix-model calculations…
We construct a four supercharges Liouville superconformal field theory in four dimensions. The Liouville superfield is chiral and its lowest component is a log-correlated complex scalar whose real part carries a background charge. The…
We point out that several terms in the third-order corrections to the slow-roll power spectra presented by Ballardini et al. [1] are incorrect. The authors of that work claim that their result differ from the ones originally presented by…
Liouville field theory on an unoriented surface is investigated, in particular, the one point function on a RP^2 is calculated. The constraint of the one point function is obtained by using the crossing symmetry of the two point function.…
We study quantum mechanics on a curved wire by approximating the physics around the curved region by three parameters coming from the boundary conditions given by the two interval Sturm-Liouville theory. Since the geometric potential on a…
We examine in detail nonperturbative corrections for low lying energies of a symmetric triple-well potential with non-equivalent vacua, for which there have been disagreement about asymptotic formulas and controversy over the validity of…
We evaluate the three point function for arbitrary states in bosonic minimal models on the sphere coupled to quantum gravity in two dimensions. The validity of the formal continuation in the number of Liouville screening charge insertions…
We perform a detailed study of a class of irregular correlators in Liouville Conformal Field Theory, of the related Virasoro conformal blocks with irregular singularities and of their connection formulae. Upon considering their…
We use a superoperator representation of the quantum kinetic equation to develop nonequilibrium perturbation theory for an inelastic electron current through a quantum dot. We derive a Lindblad-type kinetic equation for an embedded quantum…
An exact mapping is established between the $c\geq25$ Liouville field theory (LFT) and the Gibbs measure statistics of a thermal particle in a 2D Gaussian Free Field plus a logarithmic confining potential. The probability distribution of…
The equivalence of the noncommutative U(N) quantum field theories related by the theta-exact Seiberg-Witten maps is in this letter proven to all orders in the perturbation theory with respect to the coupling constant. We show that this…
An approximate technique for performing nonperturbative calculations in quantum SU(3) gauge theory is presented. One aspect of this nonperturbative method is the breaking down $SU(3) \to SU(2) + coset$. The procedure also uses some aspects…
N=1 super Liouville field theory is one of the simplest non-rational conformal field theories. It possesses various important extensions and interesting applications, e.g. to the AGT relation with 4D gauge theory or the construction of the…
We introduce a new condition on elliptic operators $L= {1/2}\triangle + b \cdot \nabla $ which ensures the validity of the Liouville property for bounded solutions to $Lu=0$ on $\R^d$. Such condition is sharp when $d=1$. We extend our…
We present an application of the standard Langevin dynamics to the problem of weak coupling perturbative expansions for Lattice QCD. This method can be applied to the computation of the most general observables. In this preliminary work we…
We compare the standard and geometric approaches to quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere by performing perturbative calculations of the one and two point functions up to the third order in the coupling constant. The choice of the…
