SLE(kappa,rho) and Conformal Field Theory
John Cardy
SLE(kappa,rho) is a generalisation of Schramm-Loewner evolution which describes planar curves which are statistically self-similar but not conformally invariant in the strict sense…
Boundary Conformal Field Theory
John Cardy
Boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) is simply the study of conformal field theory (CFT) in domains with a boundary. It gains its significance because, in some ways, it is mathem…
Network Models in Class C on Arbitrary Graphs
John Cardy
We consider network models of quantum localisation in which a particle with a two-component wave function propagates through the nodes and along the edges of an arbitrary directed…
Entanglement Entropy and Quantum Field Theory
Pasquale Calabrese, John Cardy
We carry out a systematic study of entanglement entropy in relativistic quantum field theory. This is defined as the von Neumann entropy S_A=-Tr rho_A log rho_A corresponding to th…
