Multiple Schramm-Loewner evolutions for coset Wess-Zumino-Witten models

Abstract

We formulate multiple Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLEs) for coset Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models. The resultant SLEs may describe the critical behavior of multiple interfaces for the 2D statistical mechanics models whose critical properties are classified by coset WZW models. The SLEs are essentially characterized by multiple Brownian motions on a Lie group manifold as well as those on the real axis. The drift terms of the Brownian motions, which come from interactions of interfaces, are explicitly determined by imposing a martingale condition on correlation functions among boundary condition changing operators. As a concrete example, we formulate multiple SLE on the $Z(n)$ parafermion model and calculate the crossing probability which is closely related to 3-SLE drift terms.
