We are concerned with a skew-symmetric singular Liouville system arising in non-relativistic Chern-Simons theory. Based on its variational structure, we establish existence and multiplicity results. Since the energy functional is…
We study integrable deformations of sine-Liouville conformal field theory. Every integrable perturbation of this model is related to the series of quantum integrals of motion (hierarchy). We construct the factorized scattering matrices for…
We revisit the problem of interactions of higher-spin fields in flat space. We argue that all no-go theorems can be avoided by the light-cone approach, which results in more interaction vertices as compared to the usual covariant…
Quantum Liouville theory is analyzed in terms of the infinite dimensional representations of $U_Qsl(2,C)$ with q a root of unity. Making full use of characteristic features of the representations, we show that vertex operators in this…
It is known that the path integral of correlators in Liouville theory reduces to a finite dimensional integral in the limit of vanishing coupling b. We take the example of four-point functions on sphere and investigate how the simple…
The purpose of this short note is to announce results that amount to a verification of the bootstrap for Liouville theory in the generic case under certain assumptions concerning existence and properties of fusion transformations. Under…
It has been suggested that one may construct a Lorentz-invariant noncommutative field theory by extending the coordinate algebra to additional, fictitious coordinates that transform nontrivially under the Lorentz group. Integration over…
For a four dimensional, unitary, diffeomorphism- and scale invariant quantum field theory without higher derivatives and a well defined scale current we argue that scale invariance implies conformal invariance. The proof relies on the…
We develop a coarse-graining procedure for two-dimensional models of fluctuating loops by mapping them to interface models. The result is an effective field theory for the scaling limit of loop models, which is found to be a Liouville…
We study semiclassical correlation functions in Liouville field theory on a two-sphere when all operators have large conformal dimensions. In the usual approach, such computation involves solving the classical Liouville equation, which is…
We propose an exact formula for three-point functions on the sphere in critical loop models with primary fields $V_{(r,s)}$ characterized by $2r$ legs and a parameter \(s\) that describes diagonal fields for $r=0$ and the momentum of legs…
We analyse the motion of a sphere that rolls without slipping on a conical surface having its axis in the direction of the constant gravitational field of the Earth. This nonholonomic system admits a solution in terms of quadratures. We…
A rigorous theory of liquid-crystal transitions is developed starting from the Liouville equation. The starting point is an all-atom description and a set of order parameter field variables that are shown to evolve slowly via Newton's…
We study several aspects of the $N=1$ super Liouville theory. We show that certain elements of the fusion matrix in the Neveu-Schwarz sector related to the structure constants according to the same rules which we observe in rational…
Building on an analogy with ordinary scalar field theories, an epsilon expansion for rank-3 tensorial group field theories with gauge invariance condition is introduced. This allows to continuously interpolate between the dimension four…
We establish a general Liouville type theorem for conformally invariant fully nonlinear equations.
In this work we construct an infinite class of four-point functions for massless higher-spin fields in flat space that are consistent with the gauge symmetry. In the Lagrangian picture, these reflect themselves in a peculiar non-local…
We prove that the $\Phi^4$ theory is trivial for any values of the bare coupling constant $\lambda$ thus extending previous results referring to very strong couplings to the full range of values for this parameter. The method is based on…
The OPE of local operators in the presence of defect lines is considered both in the rational CFT and the $c>25$ Virasoro (Liouville) theory. The duality transformation of the 4-point function with inserted defect operators is explicitly…
We prove that subharmonic functions of finite order on finite dimensional real space, bounded from above outside of some asymptotically small sets on spheres, are bounded from above everywhere. It follows that subharmonic functions of…
