Conformal off-diagonal boundary density profiles on a semi-infinite strip

arXiv:cond-mat/0107235 · doi:10.1088/0305-4470/34/38/101

Abstract

The off-diagonal profile phi(v) associated with a local operator (order parameter or energy density) close to the boundary of a semi-infinite strip with width L is obtained at criticality using conformal methods. It involves the surface exponent x_phi^s and displays a simple universal behaviour which crosses over from surface finite-size scaling when v/L is held constant to corner finite-size scaling when v/L -> 0.
