Conformal field theory in two dimensions: This page describes a graduate course of conformel field theory (CFT), with 18 hours lectures and 18 hours tutorials. We sketch the main motivations of CFT, including its applications to statistical physics, high-energy physics, and quantum gravity. [100%] 2024-11-06 [Conformal field theory]
Rational conformal field theory: In theoretical physics, a rational conformal field theory is a special type of two-dimensional conformal field theory with a finite number of conformal primaries. In these theories, all dimensions (and the central charge) are rational numbers that can be ... (Class of conformal field theories) [100%] 2024-02-06 [Conformal field theory]
Logarithmic conformal field theory: In theoretical physics, a logarithmic conformal field theory is a conformal field theory in which the correlators of the basic fields are allowed to be logarithmic at short distance, instead of being powers of the fields' distance. Equivalently, the dilation ... (Conformal field theory with logarithmic short distance behavior) [100%] 2023-04-22 [Conformal field theory]
Boundary conformal field theory: In theoretical physics, boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) is a conformal field theory defined on a spacetime with a boundary (or boundaries). Different kinds of boundary conditions for the fields may be imposed on the fundamental fields; for example, Neumann ...

Two-dimensional conformal field theory: A two-dimensional conformal field theory is a quantum field theory on a Euclidean two-dimensional space, that is invariant under local conformal transformations. In contrast to other types of conformal field theories, two-dimensional conformal field theories have infinite ... (Conformal field theory on a 2D spacetime) [89%] 2023-03-21 [Conformal field theory]
Non-unitary conformal field theory: Unitary conformal field theories are the subject of many numerical bootstrap studies. These studies rely on the positivity of squared three-point structure constants in unitary theories. [89%] 2023-04-04 [Research] [Conformal field theory]...
Harmonic analysis and conformal field theory: The operator product expansion of conformal field theory is analogous to the product of functions over a manifold in harmonic analysis. In particular, crossing symmetry is analogous to the associativity of the product of functions over the manifold. [81%] 2023-04-14 [Research] [Conformal field theory]...
