Conformal field theory

1998
Abstract From a lattice model one may obtain a field theory by taking a continuum or scaling limit; letting the lattice spacing ε → 0, whilst simultaneously approaching the critical temperature. As the scale or correlation length becomes infinite one obtains a scale invariant or conformal invariant theory.

Conformal Field Theory

1995
Conformal Field Theory (CFT) became a general technique in quantum field theory and its applications. One could say, in a sense, that for the critical phenomena in 2D statistical systems, and also for the string theory, the CFT plays the role similar to that which quantum mechanics plays for atomic physics.

Conformal Field Theory

2009
Abstract In the previous chapters we have seen that, coming close to a critical point, the correlation length of a statistical system diverges and consequently there are influctuations on all possible scales. In such a regime, the properties of the statistical systems can be efficiently described by a quantum field theory.
