High Energy Theory Seminar

Special date/time and location.

The talk is in 269 Lauritsen.

The novel concept of entanglement renormalization and its corresponding tensor network
renormalization technique have been highly successful in developing a controlled real space
renormalization group (RG) scheme. In this talk, I will present an explicit analytical construction of the fixed point(FP) tensor for 2D rational CFT. We define it as a correlation function between the "boundary-changing operators" on triangles. Our construction fully captures all the real-space RG conditions. We also provide a concrete example using the Ising model to compute the scaling dimensions explicitly based on the corresponding FP tensor. Interestingly, our construction of FP tensors is closely related to a strange correlator, where the holographic picture naturally emerges.Our results also open a new door towards understanding CFT in higher dimensions.

Update: This talk will not be via Zoom.
