We implement a version of conformal field theory in a doubly connected domain to connect it to the theory of annulus SLE of various types, including the standard annulus SLE, the reversible annulus SLE, and the annulus SLE with several force points. This implementation considers the statistical fields generated under the OPE multiplication by the Gaussian free field and its central/background charge modifications with a weighted combination of Dirichlet and excursion-reflected boundary conditions. We derive the Eguchi-Ooguri version of Wards equations and Belavin-Polyakov-Zamolodchikov equations for those statistical fields and use them to show that the correlations of fields in the OPE family under the insertion of the one-leg operators are martingale-observables for variants of annulus SLEs. We find Coulomb gas (Dotsenko-Fateev integral) solutions to the parabolic partial differential equations for partition functions of conformal field theory for the reversible annulus SLE.

We give a direct probabilistic construction for correlation functions in a logarithmic conformal field theory (log-CFT) of central charge $-2$. Specifically, we show that scaling limits of Peano curves in the uniform spanning tree in topological polygons with general boundary conditions are given by certain variants of the SLE$_kappa$ with $kappa=8$. We also prove that the associated crossing probabilities have conformally invariant scaling limits, given by ratios of explicit SLE$_8$ partition functions. These partition functions are interpreted as correlation functions in a log-CFT. Remarkably, it is clear from our results that this theory is not a minimal model and exhibits logarithmic phenomena --- indeed, the limit functions have logarithmic asymptotic behavior, that we calculate explicitly. General fusion rules for them could be inferred from the explicit formulas.
For every ADE Dynkin diagram, we give a realization, in terms of usual fusion algebras (graph algebras), of the algebra of quantum symmetries described by the associated Ocneanu graph. We give explicitly, in each case, the list of the corresponding twisted partition functions
It was realized recently that the chordal, radial and dipolar SLEs are special cases of a general slit holomorphic stochastic flow. We characterize those slit holomorphic stochastic flows which generate level lines of the Gaussian free field. In particular, we describe the modifications of the Gaussian free field (GFF) corresponding to the chordal and dipolar SLE with drifts. Finally, we develop a version of conformal field theory based on the background charge and Dirichlet boundary condition modifications of GFF and present martingale-observables for these types of SLEs.
We propose a new axiom system for unitary quantum field theories on curved space-time backgrounds, by postulating that the partition function and the correlators extend analytically to a certain domain of complex-valued metrics. Ordinary Riemannian metrics are contained in the allowable domain, while Lorentzian metrics lie on its boundary.
We study a nonlinear stochastic heat equation forced by a space-time white noise on closed surfaces, with nonlinearity $e^{beta u}$. This equation corresponds to the stochastic quantization of the Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) measure. (i) We first revisit the construction of the LQG measure in Liouville conformal field theory (LCFT) in the $L^2$ regime $0<beta<sqrt{2}$. This uniformizes in this regime the approaches of David-Kupiainen-Rhodes-Vargas (2016), David-Rhodes-Vargas (2016) and Guillarmou-Rhodes-Vargas (2019) which treated the case of a closed surface with genus 0, 1 and $> 1$ respectively. Moreover, our argument shows that this measure is independent of the approximation procedure for a large class of smooth approximations. (ii) We prove almost sure global well-posedness of the parabolic stochastic dynamics, and invariance of the measure under this stochastic flow. In particular, our results improve previous results obtained by Garban (2020) in the cases of the sphere and the torus with their canonical metric, and are new in the case of closed surfaces with higher genus.
