Liouville field theory with heavy charges. I. The pseudosphere

We work out the perturbative expansion of quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere starting from the semiclassical limit of a background generated by heavy charges. By solving perturbatively the Riemann-Hilbert problem for the Poincare' accessory parameters, we give in closed form the exact Green function on the background generated by one finite charge. Such a Green function is used to compute the quantum determinants i.e. the one loop corrections to known semiclassical limits thus providing the resummation of infinite classes of standard perturbative graphs. The results obtained for the one point function are compared with the bootstrap formula while those for the two point function are compared with the existing double perturbative expansion and with a degenerate case, finding complete agreement.

Quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere with heavy charges

We develop a perturbative expansion of quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere around the background generated by heavy charges. Explicit results are presented for the one and two point functions corresponding to the summation of infinite classes of standard perturbative graphs. The results are compared to the one point function and to a special case of the two point function derived by Zamolodchikov and Zamolodchikov in the bootstrap approach, finding complete agreement. A partial summation of the conformal block is also obtained.

Standard and geometric approaches to quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere

We compare the standard and geometric approaches to quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere by performing perturbative calculations of the one and two point functions up to the third order in the coupling constant. The choice of the Hadamard regularization within the geometric approach leads to a discrepancy with the standard approach. On the other hand, we find complete agreement between the results of the standard approach and the bootstrap conjectures for the one point function and the auxiliary two point function.

The tetrahedron graph in Liouville theory on the pseudosphere

We compute analytically the tetrahedron graph in Liouville theory on the pseudosphere. The result allows to extend the check of the bootstrap formula of Zamolodchikov and Zamolodchikov to third order perturbation theory of the coefficient G3. We obtain complete agreement.
