Abstract Based on the spectrum identified in our earlier work [1], we numerically solve the bootstrap to determine four-point correlation functions of the geometrical connectivities in the Q-state Potts model. Crucial in our approach is the existence of “interchiral conformal blocks”, which arise from the degeneracy of fields with conformal weight hr,1, with r ∈ ℕ*, and are related to the underlying presence of the “interchiral algebra” introduced in [2]. We also find evidence for the existence of “renormalized” recursions, replacing those that follow from the degeneracy of the field $$ {\Phi}_{12}^D $$ Φ 12 D in Liouville theory, and obtain the first few such recursions in closed form. This hints at the possibility of the full analytical determination of correlation functions in this model.

We construct exact many-body eigenstates of both energy and angular momentum for the N-anyon problem in an external magnetic field. We show that such states span the full ground state eigenspace and arise as correlation functions of Fubini-Veneziano vertex operators of string theory.

We review the physical properties of random surfaces from the view point of the continuum Liouville theory. We shall summarize physical motivations of this subject and the field-theoretic treatment of the random surfaces. In the case of subcritical strings propagating in less than two dimensions, a complete understanding has been obtained recently through matrix models. We discuss the Liouville theory understanding of these results by studying the correlation functions. We also discuss promising avenues of further investigations such as black holes in 2-dimensional gravity and 3- and 4-dimensional string theory which may be relevant to Ising 3 and QCD 4.

We reconsider the construction of exponential fields in the quantized Liouville theory. It is based on a free-field construction of a continuous family or chiral vertex operators. We derive the fusion and braid relations of the chiral vertex operators. This allows us to simplify the verification of locality and crossing symmetry of the exponential fields considerably. The calculation of the matrix elements of the exponential fields leads to a constructive derivation of the formula proposed by Dorn/Otto and the brothers Zamolodchikov.

We continue the study of quantum Liouville theory through Polyakov’s functional integral,1,2 started in Ref. 3. We derive the perturbation expansion for Schwinger’s generating functional for connected multi-point correlation functions involving stress-energy tensor, give the “dynamical” proof of the Virasoro symmetry of the theory and compute the value of the central charge, confirming previous calculation in Ref. 3. We show that conformal Ward identities for these correlation functions contain such basic facts from Kähler geometry of moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces, as relation between accessory parameters for the Fuchsian uniformization, Liouville action and Eichler integrals, Kähler potential for the Weil-Petersson metric, and local index theorem. These results affirm the fundamental role that universal Ward identities for the generating functional play in Friedan-Shenker modular geometry.4
