Proposal for a CFT interpretation of Watts' differential equation for percolation
G. M. T. Watts derived that in two dimensional critical percolation the
crossing probability Pi_hv satisfies a fifth order differential equation which
includes another one of third order whose independent solutions describe the
physically relevant quantities 1, Pi_h, Pi_hv.
We will show that this differential equation can be derived from a level
three null vector condition of a rational c=-24 CFT and motivate how this
solution may be fitted into known properties of percolation.Comment: LaTeX, 20p, added references, corrected typos and additional content
