T T ¯ $$ \overline{T} $$ -flow effects on torus partition functions

Abstract In this paper, we investigate the partition functions of conformal field theories (CFTs) with the T T ¯ $$ \overline{T} $$ deformation on a torus in terms of the perturbative QFT approach. In Lagrangian path integral formalism, the first- and second-order deformations to the partition funct...
