 uville conformal field theory: equivalence between the path integral and t
 he bootstrap construction</a>\nby Vincent Vargas (Ecole Normale Supérieur
 e) as part of Analysis\, Quantum Fields\, and Probability\n\n\nAbstract\nL
 iouville conformal field theory (LCFT) is a family of Conformal field theo
 ries which arise in a wide variety of contexts in the physics and the prob
 abilistic literature: SUSY Yang-Mills\, the scaling limit of large planar 
 maps\, etc... There are two main and seemingly unrelated approaches to LCF
 T in the physics literature: one in the Feynman path integral formulation 
 and one in the conformal bootstrap approach. Recently\, we constructed rig
 orously LCFT in the Feynman path integral formulation via probability theo
 ry (and more specifically the Gaussian Free Field). In this talk\, I will 
 present recent work which shows that both approaches (probabilistic constr
 uction of the Feynman path integral and conformal bootstrap) are in fact i
 dentical. A key ingredient in our work is the analysis of an infinite dime
 nsional semigroup\, the so-called Liouville semigroup. Based on a series o
 f joint works with C. Guillarmou\, F. David\, A. Kupiainen and R. Rhodes.\
