Crystal melting and wall crossing phenomena
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the role of the statistical mechanical model of crystal melting in counting BPS states and show that smooth geometry of the Calabi-Yau manifold emerges in the thermodynamic limit of the crystal, giving an important clue as such to the geometry at the Planck scale.

Entropy of a generic null surface from its associated Virasoro algebra
TL;DR: In this paper, a general class of null surfaces, all of which possess a Virasoro algebra and a central charge, leading to an entropy density which is just (1/4).

Asymptotic dynamics of three-dimensional gravity
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the result of Coussaert-Henneaux-van Driel showing that the asymptotic dynamics of $(2+1)$-dimensional gravity with negative cosmological constant is described at the classical level by Liouville theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical exponents of the degenerate Hubbard model
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the critical behavior of the SU(N) generalization of the one-dimensional Hubbard model with arbitrary degeneracy N. The critical exponents depend on the system parameters through an N*N dressed charge matrix implying the relevance of the interaction of charge and spin-density waves.

Quantum bounds for gravitational de sitter entropy and the cardy-verlinde formula
TL;DR: In this article, different types of quantum corrections to the Cardy-Verlinde entropy formula in a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe and in an (anti)-de Sitter space are analyzed.

Infinite Conformal Symmetry in Two-Dimensional Quantum Field Theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an investigation of the massless, two-dimentional, interacting field theories and their invariance under an infinite-dimensional group of conformal transformations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Heterotic String
TL;DR: A new type of superstring theory is constructed as a chiral combination of the closed D=26 bosonic and D=10 fermionic strings, which is supersymmetric, Lorentz invariant, and free of tachyons.

Finite size scaling analysis of Ising model block distribution functions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the distribution function P L ( s ) of the local order parameters in finite blocks of linear dimension L for Ising lattices of dimension d = 2,3 and 4.

Conformal invariance, the central charge, and universal finite-size amplitudes at criticality.
TL;DR: It is shown that for conformally invariant two-dimensional systems, the amplitude of the finite-size corrections to the free energy of an infinitely long strip of width L at criticality is linearly related to the conformal anomaly number c, for various boundary conditions.
