The tadpole cancellation in the unoriented Liouville theory is discussed. Using two different methods -- the free field method and the boundary-crosscap state method, we derive one-loop divergences. Both methods require two D1-branes with…
We study a generalized functional related to the pullback metrics (3). We derive the first variation formula which yield stationary maps. We introduce the stress-energy tensor which is naturally linked to conservation law and yield…
We extend the previous treatment of Liouville theory on the torus, to the general case in which the distribution of charges is not necessarily symmetric. This requires the concept of Fuchsian differential equation on Riemann surfaces. We…

In this note we provide a gentle introduction to the concepts and intuition behind the recent breakthrough results on the mathematically rigorous construction of a non-trivial 2D conformal field theory, namely the so-called Liouville…
Liouville conformal field theory is a prototypical example of an exactly solvable quantum field theory, in the sense that the correlation functions in an arbitrary background can be determined exactly using only the constraints of unitarity…
Liouville conformal field theory (LCFT) is considered on a simply connected domain with boundary, specializing to the case where the Liouville potential is integrated only over the boundary of the domain. We work in the probabilistic…

We work out the perturbative expansion of quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere starting from the semiclassical limit of a background generated by heavy charges. By solving perturbatively the Riemann-Hilbert problem for the Poincare'…
We prove a Liouville theorem for the plurisubharmonic functions on complete Kaelher manifolds. As the applications, we prove a splitting theorem for complete Kaehler manifolds with nonnegative biscetional curvature in terms of the linear…
A Liouville function is a complex analytic function H with a Taylor series \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} x^n/a_n such the a_n's form a ``very fast growing'' sequence of integers. In this paper we exhibit the complete first-order theory of the complex…
The study of the packing of a length of wire in a two dimensional domain is done using techniques of conformal maps. The resulting scaling properties are derived through the Coulomb gas formalism of Conformal Field Theories. An analogy is…

In this paper, we consider the smooth map from a Riemannian manifold to the standard Euclidean space and the p-Ginzburg-Landau energy. Under suitable curvature conditions on the domain manifold, some Liouville type theorems are established…

In this paper, inverse spectral problems for Sturm-Liouville operators on a tree (a graph without cycles) are studied. We show that if the potential on an edge is known a priori, then b - 1 spectral sets uniquely determine the potential…
