Characters in Conformal Field Theories from Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz

We propose a new $q$-series formula for a character of parafermion conformal field theories associated to arbitrary non-twisted affine Lie algebra $\widehat{g}$. We show its natural origin from a thermodynamic Bethe ansatz analysis including chemical potentials.Comment: 12 pages, harvmac, 1 postscript figure file, (some confusion on PF Hilbert space was modified) HUTP-92/A06

Two-Point Functions of Coulomb Gauge Yang-Mills Theory

The functional approach to Coulomb gauge Yang-Mills theory is considered within the standard, second order, formalism. The Dyson-Schwinger equations and Slavnov-Taylor identities concerning the two-point functions are derived explicitly and one-loop perturbative results are presented.Comment: 12 pages, no figure

Diffusion and spectral dimension on Eden tree

We calculate the eigenspectrum of random walks on the Eden tree in two and three dimensions. From this, we calculate the spectral dimension $d_s$ and the walk dimension $d_w$ and test the scaling relation $d_s = 2d_f/d_w$ ($=2d/d_w$ for an Eden tree). Finite-size induced crossovers are observed, whereby the system crosses over from a short-time regime where this relation is violated (particularly in two dimensions) to a long-time regime where the behavior appears to be complicated and dependent on dimension even qualitatively.Comment: 11 pages, Plain TeX with J-Phys.sty style, HLRZ 93/9
