A NEAR HORIZON CFT DUAL FOR KERR–NEWMAN AdS

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the near horizon regime of a Kerr-Newman AdS (KNAdS) black hole, given by its two-dimensional analogue a la Robinson and Wilczek (Phys. Rev. Lett. D80, 124008 (2009)) in the appropriate limits, is asymptotically AdS2 and dual to a one-dimensional quantum conformal field theory.

The periodic sl(2|1) alternating spin chain and its continuum limit as a bulk Logarithmic Conformal Field Theory at c=0

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the periodic sl(2|1) alternating spin chain with respect to the algebra of local energy densities provided by a representation of the affine Temperley-Lieb algebra at fugacity one.

Correlation functions and momentum distribution of one-dimensional hard-core anyons in optical lattices

TL;DR: In this paper, the correlation functions in a system of one-dimensional hard-core anyons that can be experimentally realized in optical lattices were calculated using the summation of form factors and the Fredholm determinant representations for the time-, space-, and temperature-dependent Green's functions.

N=2 supersymmetric W algebras

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated extensions of the N = 2 super Virasoro algebra by one additional super primary field and its charge conjugate, using a supersymmetric covariant formalism.

A Particle Probing Thermodynamics in Three-Dimensional Black Hole

TL;DR: In this paper, a 2+1-dimensional rotating black hole is modeled as a particle absorbing a particle and the microscopic changes which the black hole undergoes are interpreted using the AdS/CFT correspondence.

Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena

TL;DR: The field of phase transitions and critical phenomena continues to be active in research, producing a steady stream of interesting and fruitful results as discussed by the authors, and the major aim of this serial is to provide review articles that can serve as standard references for research workers in the field.

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.

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.
