Four-point correlation numbers in super Minimal Liouville Gravity in the Ramond sector

In this work, we continue the investigation of correlation numbers in $\mathcal{N}=1$ super Minimal Liouville Gravity (SMLG), with physical fields in the Ramond sector. Building upon our previous construction of physical operators and the evaluation of three-point correlation functions involving Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz (NS) insertions, we now turn to the analytic computation of four-point correlation numbers. This development is motivated by the framework established for the bosonic Minimal Liouville Gravity and its supersymmetric NS analog, where the integration over moduli space in correlation functions can be performed explicitly using the higher equations of motion (HEM) in Liouville theory. In particular, if one of the insertions corresponds to a degenerate field, the four-point amplitude can be expressed in terms of boundary contributions obtained from the OPE structure of logarithmic counterparts of ground ring elements. We aim to adapt and generalize this approach to the Ramond sector.Our result is a closed-form analytic expression for four-point correlation numbers involving Ramond fields.

On construction of correlation numbers in super Minimal Liouville Gravity in the Ramond sector

We study the construction of correlation numbers in super minimal Liouville gravity. In particular, we construct the fundamental physical fields in the Ramond sector and compute the three-point correlation number involving two physical fields in the Ramond sector and one in the NS sector. Furthermore, we establish the relation between Ramond physical fields and the elements of the ground ring. Using the higher equations of motion of super Liouville theory, this relation leads to a new representation of the Ramond physical fields. This formulation enables a direct analytic computation of correlation numbers involving Ramond field insertions. As an application, we demonstrate the method in the simplest case of a three-point correlation function.

On different approaches to integrable lattice models II

This paper represents a continuation of our previous work, where the Bolzmann weights (BWs) for several Interaction-Round-the Face (IRF) lattice models were computed using their relation to rational conformal field theories. Here, we focus on deriving solutions for the Boltzmann weights of the Interaction-Round the Face lattice model, specifically the unrestricted face model, based on the $\mathfrak{su}(3)_k$ affine Lie algebra. The admissibility conditions are defined by the adjoint representation. We find the BWs by determining the quantum $R$ matrix of the $U_q(\mathfrak{sl} (3))$ quantum algebra in the adjoint representation and then applying the so-called Vertex-IRF correspondence. The Vertex-IRF correspondence defines the BWs of IRF models in terms of $R$ matrix elements.

Shadow formalism for supersymmetric conformal blocks

Shadow formalism is a technique in two-dimensional CFT allowing straightforward computation of conformal blocks in the limit of infinitely large central charge. We generalize the construction of shadow operator for superconformal field theories. We demonstrate that shadow formalism yields known expressions for the large-c limit of the four-point superconformal block on a plane and of the one-point superconformal block on a torus. We also explicitly find the two-point global torus superconformal block in the necklace channel and check it against the Casimir differential equation.

On different approaches to integrable lattice models

Interaction-Round the Face (IRF) models are two-dimensional lattice models of statistical mechanics defined by an affine Lie algebra and admissibility conditions depending on a choice of representation of that affine Lie algebra. Integrable IRF models, i.e., the models the Boltzmann weights of which satisfy the quantum Yang-Baxter equation, are of particular interest. In this paper, we investigate trigonometric Boltzmann weights of integrable IRF models. By using an ansatz proposed by one of the authors in some previous works, the Boltzmann weights of the restricted IRF models based on the affine Lie algebras $\mathfrak{su}(2)_k$ and $\mathfrak{su}(3)_k$ are computed for fundamental and adjoint representations for some fixed levels $k$. New solutions for the Boltzmann weights are obtained. We also study the vertex-IRF correspondence in the context of an unrestricted IRF model based on $\mathfrak {su}(3)_k$ (for general $k$) and discuss how it can be used to find Boltzmann weights in terms of the quantum $\hat{R}$ matrix when the adjoint representation defines the admissibility conditions.

On quantum determinants in integrable quantum gravity

Einstein-Rosen waves with two polarizations are cylindrically symmetric solutions to vacuum Einstein equations. Einstein equations in this case reduce to an integrable system. In 1971, Geroch has shown that this system admits an infinite-dimensional group of symmetry transformations known as the Geroch group. The phase space of this system can be parametrized by a matrix-valued function of spectral parameter, called monodromy matrix. The latter admits the Riemann-Hilbert factorization into a pair of transition matrices, i.e. matrix-valued functions of spectral parameter such that one of them is holomorphic in the upper half-plane, and the other is holomorphic in the lower half-plane. The classical Geroch group preserves the determinants of transition and monodromy matrices by construction. The algebraic quantization of the quadratic Poisson algebra generated by transition matrices of Einstein-Rosen system was proposed by Korotkin and Samtleben in 1997. Paternain, Perasa and Reisenberger have recently suggested a quantization of the Geroch group, which can be considered as a symmetry of the quantum algebra of observables. They have shown that commutation relations involving quantum monodromy matrices are preserved by the action of the quantum Geroch group. In present paper we introduce the notion of the determinant of the quantum monodromy matrix. We derive a factorization formula expressing the quantum determinant of the monodromy matrix as a product of the quantum determinants of the transition matrices. The action of the quantum Geroch group is extended from the subalgebra generated by the monodromy matrix onto the full algebra of observables. This extension is used to prove that the quantum determinant of the quantum monodromy matrix is invariant under the action of quantum Geroch group.
