We propose exact formulas for the 2- and 3-point functions of the WZNW model on the non-compact supergroup OSP(1|2). Using the path integral approach that was recently developed in arXiv:0706.1030 we show how local correlation functions in…
Liouville, SL(2,R)/U(1) and SL(2,R)/R_+ coset structures are completely described by gauge invariant Hamiltonian reduction of the SL(2,R) WZNW theory.
The fusion products of admissible representations of the su(2) WZW model at the fractional level k=-4/3 are analysed. It is found that some fusion products define representations for which the spectrum of L_0 is not bounded from below.…
Gauged WZNW models are integrable conformal field theories. We integrate the classical \slu{} theory with periodic boundary conditions, which describes closed strings moving in a curved target-space geometry. We calculate its Poisson…
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…
It is known that Liouville theory can be represented as an SL(2,R) gauged WZW model. We study a two dimensional field theory which can be obtained by analytically continuing some of the variables in the SL(2,R) gauged WZW model. We can…
Many qualitatively new features of WZNW models associated to noncompact cosets are due to zero modes with continuous spectrum. Insight may be gained by reducing the theory to its zero-mode sector, the mini-superspace limit. This will be…
The $SL(2,\R)$ WZNW $\rightarrow$ Liouville reduction leads to a nontrivial phase space on the classical level both in $0+1$ and $1+1$ dimensions. To study the consequences in the quantum theory, the quantum mechanics of the $0+1$…
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…
he analytic formulas for structure constants of $su(2S+1)$ algebra in terms of $3jm$ and $6j$ symbols of $su(2)$ have been derived for the decomplexification of the Liouville-von Neumann equation.
We compute the gauge field functional integral giving the scalar product of the SU(2) Chern-Simons theory states on a Riemann surface of genus > 1. The result allows to express the higher genera partition functions of the SU(2) WZNW…
We provide the analytic expressions of the totally symmetric and anti-symmetric structure constants in the $\mathfrak{su}(N)$ Lie algebra. The derivation is based on a relation linking the index of a generator to the indexes of its non-null…
An analytic expression is proposed for the three-point function of the exponential fields in the Liouville field theory on a sphere. In the classical limit it coincides with what the classical Liouville theory predicts. Using this function…
The symplectic and Poisson structures of the Liouville theory are derived from the symplectic form of the SL(2,R) WZNW theory by gauge invariant Hamiltonian reduction. Causal non-equal time Poisson brackets for a Liouville field are…
Using a gauge invariant reduction we directly integrate the SL(2,R)/U(1) WZNW theory. We prove that the conserved parafermions of this theory are coset currents. Quantum mechanically, the parafermion algebra, the energy-momentum tensor, and…
In the first of this two-part series, we find `fixed point factorisation' formulas, towards an understanding of the fusion ring of WZW models. Fixed-point factorisation refers to the simplifications in the data of a CFT involving primary…
We discuss Liouville field theory in the framework of Schwinger-Dyson approach and derive a functional equation for the three-point structure constant. We argue the existence of a second Schwinger-Dyson equation on the basis of the duality…
It is proved that Liouville theory and the two dimensional SO(2,1) gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten term are on-shell equivalent. This shed light on a possible higher dimensional generalization of the former theory.
We derive a relation between correlation functions of supergroup WZNW models and conformal field theories with extended superconformal symmetry. The supergroups considered have a bosonic subgroup of the form SL(2) x A for some Lie group A.…
An approach to studying lattice gauge models in the weak coupling region is proposed. Conceptually, it is based on the crucial role of the original Z(N) symmetry and the invariant gauge group measure. As an example, we calculate an…
