Note on searching for critical lattice models as entropy critical points from strange correlator

Anran Jin, Ling-Yan Hung

An entropy function is proposed in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 131, 251602] as a way to detect criticality even when the system size is small. In this note we apply this strategy in the sear…

Deriving the non-perturbative gravitational dual of quantum Liouville theory from BCFT operator algebra

Lin Chen, Ling-Yan Hung, Yikun Jiang +1

We demonstrate that, by utilizing the boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) operator algebra of the Liouville CFT, one can express its path-integral on any Riemann surface as a th…

It from ETH: Multi-interval Entanglement and Replica Wormholes from Large- BCFT Ensemble

Hao Geng, Ling-Yan Hung, Yikun Jiang

We provide a derivation of the Ryu-Takayanagi (RT) formula in 3D gravity for generic boundary subregion--including RT surface phase transitions--directly from the dual two-dimensio…

A 2D-CFT Factory: Critical Lattice Models from Competing Anyon Condensation Processes in SymTO/SymTFT

Ling-Yan Hung, Kaixin Ji, Ce Shen +2

In this paper, we introduce a ``CFT factory'' : a novel algorithm of methodically generating 2D lattice models that would flow to 2D conformal fixed points in the infrared. These 2…

Universal Structures and Emergent Geometry from Large- BCFT Ensemble

Ling-Yan Hung, Yikun Jiang, Bing-Xin Lao

In this paper, we study the ensemble average of boundary CFT (BCFT) data consistent with the bootstrap equations. We apply the results to computing ensemble average of copies of mu…

QG from SymQRG: AdS/CFT Correspondence as Topological Symmetry-Preserving Quantum RG Flow

Ning Bao, Ling-Yan Hung, Yikun Jiang +1

By analyzing non-perturbative RG flows that explicitly preserve given topological symmetries, we show that each of their coarse-graining steps can be expressed as a quantum path in…
