Extended multiplet structure in Logarithmic Conformal Field Theories

چکیده

We use the process of quantum hamiltonian reduction of SU(2)k, at rational level k, to study explicitly the correlators of the h1,s fields in the cp,q models. We find from direct calculation of the correlators that we have the possibility of extra, chiral and non-chiral, multiplet structure in the h1,s operators beyond the ‘minimal’ sector. At the level of the vacuum null vector h1,2p−1 = (p − 1)(q − 1) we find that there can be two extra non-chiral fermionic fields. The extra indicial structure present here permeates throughout the entire theory. In particular we find we have a chiral triplet of fields at h1,4p−1 = (2p−1)(2q −1). We conjecture that this triplet algebra may produce a rational extended cp,q model. We also find a doublet of fields at h1,3p−1 = ( 3p 2 − 1)( 3q 2 − 1). These are chiral fermionic operators if p and q are not both odd and otherwise parafermionic. [email protected]

Two-Point Functions and Boundary States in Boundary Logarithmic Conformal Field Theories

Amongst conformal field theories, there exist logarithmic conformal field theories such as cp,1 models, various WZNW models, and a large variety of statistical models. It is well known that these theories generally contain a Jordan cell structure, which is a reducible but indecomposable representation. Our main aim in this thesis is to address the results and prospects of boundary logarithmic c...

Gradient Flow in Logarithmic Conformal Field Theory

We establish conditions under which the worldsheet β-functions of logarithmic conformal field theories can be derived as the gradient of some scalar function on the moduli space of running coupling constants. We derive a renormalization group invariant version of this function and relate it to the usual Zamolodchikov C-function expressed in terms of correlation functions of the worldsheet energ...

Quantum Conformal Algebras and Closed Conformal Field Theory

We investigate the quantum conformal algebras of N=2 and N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories. Phenomena occurring at strong coupling are analysed using the Nachtmann theorem and very general, model-independent, arguments. The results lead us to introduce a novel class of conformal field theories, identified by a closed quantum conformal algebra. We conjecture that they are the exact solution to t...

What the characters of irreducible subrepresentations of Jordan cells can tell us about LCFT

In this article, we review some aspects of logarithmic conformal field theories which can be inferred from the characters of irreducible submodules of indecomposable modules. We will mainly consider the W(2, 2p− 1, 2p− 1, 2p− 1) series of triplet algebras and a bit logarithmic extensions of the minimal Virasoro models. Since in all known examples of logarithmic conformal field theories the vacu...

وزنهای پوچ توان در نظریه میدانهای همدیس

  Logarithmic conformal field theory can be obtained using nilpotent weights. Using such scale transformations various properties of the theory were derived. The derivation of four point function needs a knowledge of singular vectors which is derived by including nilpotent variables into the Kac determinant. This leads to inhomogeneous hypergeometric functions. Finally we consider the theory ne...
