Geometric modular action for disjoint intervals and boundary conformal field theory — Roberto Longo1, •Pierre Martinetti2, and Karl-Henning Rehren2 — 1Università di Roma "Tor Vergata" — 2Universität Göttingen & Courant Centre
In suitable states, the modular group of local algebras associated with unions of disjoint intervals in chiral conformal quantum field theory acts geometrically. We translate this result into the setting of boundary conformal quantum field theory and interpret it as a relation between temperature and acceleration.
