Boundary states for a free boson defined on finite geometries |
Langlands recently constructed the map that factorizes the partition function of a free boson on a cylinder with boundary condition given by two arbitrary functions and in the form . We rewrite in a compact form, getting rid of technical assumptions necessary in his construction. This simpler form allows us to explore the properties of the map under conformal transformation that preserve the boundary. (Joint work with Marc-André Lewis.)
