Liouville theory: an introduction to rigorous approaches

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In recent years, a surprisingly direct and simple rigorous understanding of quantum Liouville theory has developed. We aim here to make this material more accessible to physicists working on quantum field theory.
