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 the geometry and topology of a standard moduli space of stable bundles on a Riemann surface, and use a generalization of the Verlinde formula to derive results on intersection pairings.
We present a complete study of boundary bound states and related boundary S-matrices for the sine-Gordon model with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Our approach is based partly on the bootstrap procedure, and partly on the explicit solution…
A quasi-1D superconductor with odd number of Fermi surfaces is expected to exhibit a nondegenerate Majorana bound state at the Fermi level at its boundary with an insulator (where the latter could be an actual insulator material or vacuum,…
Bound states arise in many interactions among elementary field states, and are represented by poles in the scattering matrix. The emergent nature of bound states suggests that they play a perhaps under-appreciated role in specifying the…
In this work we examine a system consisting of a confined one-dimensional arrangement of atoms that we describe by using the 2-dimensional ${\mathbb C}P^{N-1}$ model, restricted to an interval and at finite temperature. We develop a method…
Based on a recent generalization of Bloch's theorem, we present a Bloch ansatz for the Harper model with an arbitrary rational magnetic flux in various geometries, and solve the associated ansatz equations analytically. In the case of a…
We consider unitary Virasoro minimal models on the disk with Cardy boundary conditions and discuss deformations by certain relevant boundary operators, analogous to tachyon condensation in string theory. Concentrating on the least relevant…
We study a relationship between conformally invariant boundary conditions and anomalies of conformal field theories (CFTs) in 1+1 dimensions. For a given CFT with a global symmetry, we consider symmetric gapping potentials which are…
We extend the results of previous work on the vortex order parameter in systems similar to the Ginzburg-Landau description of superfluid $^3$He in the bulk B phase. Specifically, we consider vortices preserving an axial $U(1)$ symmetry. We…
Boundary conditions strongly affect the results of numerical computations for finite size inhomogeneous or incommensurate structures. We present a method which allows to deal with this problem, both for ground state and for critical…
At Bradlow's limit, the moduli space of Bogomol'nyi vortices on a compact Riemann surface of genus $g$ is determined. The K\"{a}hler form, and the volume of the moduli space is then computed. These results are compared with the…
We investigate the equilibrium and off-equilibrium behaviors of systems at thermal first-order transitions (FOTs) when the boundary conditions favor one of the two phases. As a theoretical laboratory we consider the two-dimensional Potts…
We develop a new method to compute the exact overlaps between integrable boundary states and on-shell Bethe states for integrable spin chains. Our method is based on the coordinate Bethe Ansatz and does not rely on the "rotation trick" of…
In this paper, continuing the discussion about Species Quantum Mechanics, we investigate quantum mechanics in moduli spaces using a mini-superspace approach. From this perspective, moduli-dependent functions can be viewed as operators, and…
A complete set of the Virasoro and W-constraints for the Kontsevich-Penner model, which conjecturally describes intersections on moduli spaces of open curves, was derived in our previous work. Here we show that these constraints can be…
The Bethe Ansatz equations for the one-dimensional Hubbard model are reexamined. A new procedure is introduced to properly include bound states. The corrected equations lead to new elementary excitations away from half-filling.
The $Z_2$ bosonic orbifold models with compactification radius $R^2=1/2k$ are examined in the presence of boundaries. Demanding the extended algebra characters to have definite conformal dimension and to consist of an integer sum of…
We extend ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) modulation theory to describe systems in which bulk and boundary states of topological materials coexist, with both appearing at the same energy. As an application of the formulation, we investigate…
Conformal field theories that exhibit spontaneous breaking of conformal symmetry (a moduli space of vacua) must satisfy a set of bootstrap constraints, involving the usual data (scaling dimensions and OPE coefficients) as well as new data…
