4. Introducing Conformal Field Theory The purpose of this section is to get comfortable with the basic language of two dimensional conformal field theory4 . This is a topic which has many applications outside of string theory, most notably in statistical physics where it offers a description of critical

Natural observer fields and redshift ROBERT S MACKAY COLIN ROURKE We sketch the construction of space-times with observer fields which have redshift satisfying Hubble’s law but no big bang.
