Finite Size Corrections

We compute the boundary entropy for bond percolation on the square lattice in the presence of a boundary loop weight, and prove explicit and exact expressions on a strip and on a cylinder of size LL. For the cylinder we provide a rigorous asymptotic analysis which allows for the computation of finite-size corrections to arbitrary order. For the strip we provide exact expressions that have been verified using high-precision numerical analysis. Our rigorous and exact results corroborate an argument based on conformal field theory, in particular concerning universal logarithmic corrections for the case of the strip due to the presence of corners in the geometry. We furthermore observe a crossover at a special value of the boundary loop weight.

Abstract The Operator Product Expansion is a useful tool to represent correlation functions. In this note we extend Conformal Regge theory to provide an exact OPE representation of Lorenzian four-point correlators in conformal field theory, valid even away from Regge limit. The representation extends convergence of the OPE by rewriting it as a double integral over continuous spins and dimensions, and features a novel “Regge block”. We test the formula in the conformal fishnet theory, where exact results involving nontrivial Regge trajectories are available.

Boundary Fields

Based on the results published recently [SciPost Phys. 7, 026 (2019)], the influence of surfaces and boundary fields are calculated for the ferromagnetic anisotropic square lattice Ising model on finite lattices as well as in the finite-size scaling limit. Starting with the open cylinder, we independently apply boundary fields on both sides which can be either homogeneous or staggered, representing different combinations of boundary conditions. We confirm several predictions from scaling theory, conformal field theory and renormalisation group theory: we explicitly show that anisotropic couplings enter the scaling functions through a generalised aspect ratio, and demonstrate that open and staggered boundary conditions are asymptotically equal in the scaling regime. Furthermore, we examine the emergence of the surface tension due to one antiperiodic boundary in the system in the presence of symmetry breaking boundary fields, again for finite systems as well as in the scaling limit. Finally, we extend our results to the antiferromagnetic Ising model.

Abstract We study the random geometry approach to the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformation of 2d conformal field theory developed by Cardy and discuss its realization in a gravity dual. In this representation, the gravity dual of the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformation becomes a straightforward translation of the field theory language. Namely, the dual geometry is an ensemble of AdS3 spaces or BTZ black holes, without a finite cutoff, but instead with randomly fluctuating boundary diffeomorphisms. This reflects an increase in degrees of freedom in the renormalization group flow to the UV by the irrelevant $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ operator. We streamline the method of computation and calculate the energy spectrum and the thermal free energy in a manner that can be directly translated into the gravity dual language. We further generalize this approach to correlation functions and reproduce the all-order result with universal logarithmic corrections computed by Cardy in a different method. In contrast to earlier proposals, this version of the gravity dual of the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformation works not only for the energy spectrum and the thermal free energy but also for correlation functions.

We consider a charged black hole with a scalar field that is coupled to gravity in (2 + 1)-dimensions. We compute the logarithmic corrections to the corresponding system using two approaches. In the first method we take advantage of thermodynamic properties. In the second method we use the metric function that is suggested by conformal field theory. Finally, we compare the results of the two approaches.

Clustering Property

The M_kk models for 1D lattice fermions are characterised by {\cal N}=2 supersymmetry and by an order-kk clustering property. This paper highlights connections with quantum field theories (QFTs) in various regimes. At criticality the QFTs are minimal models of {\cal N}=2 supersymmetric conformal field theory (CFT) - we analyse finite size spectra on open chains with a variety of supersymmetry preserving boundary conditions. Specific staggering perturbations lead to a gapped regime corresponding to massive {\cal N}=2 supersymmetric QFT with Chebyshev superpotentials. At ‘extreme staggering’ we uncover a simple physical picture with degenerate supersymmetric vacua and mobile kinks. We connect this kink-picture to the Chebyshev QFTs and use it to derive novel CFT character formulas. For clarity the focus in this paper is on the simplest models, M_11, M_22 and M_33.
