Lattice Representations of the Virasoro Algebra I : Discrete Gaussian Free Field

Clément Hongler

Most two-dimensional massless field theories carry represe ntations of the Virasoro algebra as consequences of their conformal symmetry. Recently, conformal symmetry has been rigorously established for scaling limit s of lattice models by means of discrete ...

Perturbative conformal symmetry and dilaton

Alexander Monin, Frédéric Gretsch

Spontaneous symmetry breaking with necessity leads to the presence of Goldstone field(s). In the case of scale or conformal symmetries the corresponding Goldstone mode is called the dilaton. Consistently coupling a system to the dilaton poses certain diffi ...

From Scale Invariance to Lorentz Symmetry

Sergey Sibiryakov

It is shown that a unitary translationally invariant field theory in 1 + 1 dimensions, satisfying isotropic scale invariance, standard assumptions about the spectrum of states and operators, and the requirement that signals propagate with finite velocity, ...

The local Callan-Symanzik equation: structure and applications

Riccardo Rattazzi, Boaz Keren Zur, Lorenzo Vitale, Florent Baume

The local Callan-Symanzik equation describes the response of a quantum field theory to local scale transformations in the presence of background sources. The consistency conditions associated with this anomalous equation imply non-trivial relations among t ...

Convergence of Ising Interfaces to Schramm's SLE Curves

Clément Hongler, Stanislav Smirnov

We show how to combine our earlier results to deduce strong convergence of the interfaces in the planar critical Ising model and its random-cluster representation to Schramm’s SLE curves with parameter κ = 3 and κ = 16 / 3 respectively. ...

An intercomparison of subgrid models for large-eddy simulation of katabatic flows

Fernando Porté Agel, Craig Matthew Smith

We present an intercomparison of three subgrid-scale (SGS) models for large-eddy simulation (LES) of katabatic flows. The SGS closures we study include the Smagorinsky formulation, a scale-invariant dynamic model, and a scale-dependent dynamic model. Downs ...

The alpha-theorem and the asymptotics of 4D quantum field theory

Riccardo Rattazzi

We study the possible IR and UV asymptotics of 4D Lorentz invariant unitary quantum field theory. Our main tool is a generalization of the Komargodski-Schwimmer proof for the alpha-theorem. We use this to rule out a large class of renormalization group flo ...

Spontaneously broken conformal symmetry: dealing with the trace anomaly

Alexander Monin, Roberta Armillis

The majority of renormalizable field theories possessing the scale invariance at the classical level exhibits the trace anomaly once quantum corrections are taken into account. This leads to the breaking of scale and conformal invariance. At the same time ...

Ising Interfaces and Free Boundary Conditions

Clément Hongler

The authors generalize the result of D. Chelkak et al. [C. R., Math., Acad. Sci. Paris 352, No. 2, 157{161 (2014; Zbl 06265643)] to the case when free boundary conditions enter the picture. The proof is related to the rigorous computation of a (dual) bound ...

The Energy Density in the Planar Ising Model

Clément Hongler, Stanislav Smirnov

We study the critical Ising model on the square lattice in bounded simply connected domains with + and free boundary conditions. We relate the energy density of the model to a discrete fermionic spinor and compute its scaling limit by discrete complex anal ...
