The topics covered include:(i) the stress tensor in random systems considered as deformed pure systems; (ii) correlators of the stress tensor at a random fixed point: expectations from the replica approach and c-theorem sum rules; (iii) partition function on a torus; (iv) how the stress tensor enters into correlation functions: subtleties with Kac operators.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-11-02T11:09:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "correlation functions", "generic quenched random system", "c-theorem sum rules", "stress tensor enters", "pure systems" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2001cond.mat.11031C" } } }
