CONFORMAL FIELD THEORIES COUPLED TO 2-D GRAVITY IN THE CONFORMAL GAUGE
Abstract
The coupling of conformal field theories to 2-d gravity may be studied in the conformal gauge. As an application, the results of Knizhnik, Polyakov and Zamolodchikov for the scaling dimensions of conformal fields are derived in a simple way. Their conjecture for the susceptibility exponent γ of strings is proven and extended to arbitrary genus surfaces. The result agrees with exact results from random lattice models.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
