We investigate second order conformal perturbation theory for $\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifolds of conformal field theories in two dimensions. To evaluate the necessary twisted sector correlation functions and their integrals, we map them from the…
This paper proposes parametric and non-parametric hypothesis testing algorithms for detecting anisotropy -- rotational variance of the covariance function in random fields. Both algorithms are based on resampling mechanisms, which enable…
Testing the independence between random vectors is a fundamental problem in statistics. Distance correlation, a recently popular dependence measure, is universally consistent for testing independence against all distributions with finite…
We consider the two-dimensional dilute q-state Potts model on its first order phase transition surface for 0<q\leq 4. After determining the exact scattering theory which describes the scaling limit, we compute the two-kink form factors of…
We explore quantum phase transitions using two probes of quantum chaos: out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) and the $r$-parameter obtained from the level spacing statistics. In particular, we address $p$-spin models associated with…
Boundary critical phenomena are studied in the 3- State Potts model in 2 dimensions using conformal field theory, duality and renormalization group methods. A presumably complete set of boundary conditions is obtained using both fusion and…
We present a conformally invariant generalized form of the free particle action by connecting the wave and particle aspects through gravity. Conformal invariance breaking is introduced by choosing a particular configurat$ of dynamical…
Meta-conformal invariance is a novel class of dynamical symmetries, with dynamical exponent $z=1$, and distinct from the standard ortho-conformal invariance. The meta-conformal Ward identities can be directly read off from the Lie algebra…
We discuss how exact conformal invariance in the strong coupling leads naturally through AdS/CFT correspondence to a systematic expansion for the Pomeron and Odderon intercepts in power of $\lambda^{-1/2}$, with $\lambda=g^2N_c$ the 't…
Complex interactions leading to phase transitions continue to hold a due interest in the scientific community. We charactersize a phase transition in a coupled oscillators model where interactions are not local in nature. At a first order…
The aim of the paper is to present numerical results supporting the presence of conformal invariance in three dimensional statistical mechanics models at criticality and to elucidate the geometric aspects of universality. As a case study we…
The conformal algebra provides powerful constraints, which guarantee that renormalized conformally covariant operators exist in the hypothetical conformal limit of the theory, where the $\beta$-function vanishes. Thus, in this limit also…
To highlight certain similarities in combinatorial representations of several well known two-dimensional models of statistical mechanics, we introduce and study a new family of models which specializes to these cases after a proper tuning…
The methods of conformal field theory are used to obtain the series of exact solutions of the fundamental equations of the theory of turbulence. The basic conjecture, proved to be self-consistent ,is the conformal invariance of the inertial…
We consider the two dimensional $Q-$ random-cluster Potts model on the torus and at the critical point. We study the probability for two points to be connected by a cluster for general values of $Q\in [1,4]$. Using a Conformal Field Theory…
Interferometers with single particles are susceptible for dephasing perturbations from the environment, such as electromagnetic oscillations or mechanical vibrations. On the one hand, this limits sensitive quantum phase measurements as it…
We employ detailed numerical simulations to probe the mechanism of flow reversals in two-dimensional turbulent convection. We show that the reversals occur via vortex reconnection of two attracting corner rolls having same sign of…
Quantum universal invariants of a Gaussian state's covariance matrix, which can be derived from intensity correlation moments, have been adopted to characterize the entanglement properties of Gaussian states via the positive partial…
Two-dimensional systems with time-dependent controls admit a quadratic Hamiltonian modelling near potential minima. Independent, dynamical normal modes facilitate inverse Hamiltonian engineering to control the system dynamics, but some…
The problem of detecting changes in covariance for a single pair of features has been studied in some detail, but may be limited in importance or general applicability. In contrast, testing equality of covariance matrices of a {\it set} of…
