Description

In a recent paper http://arxiv.org/abs/1311.2237, Pierluigi Falco derived the detailed asymptotics of the correlation function of the critical Coulomb system in two dimensions at low density, as predicted by Berezinskii, Kosterlitz and Thouless. In this first of a two part lecture we will review this result and explain some key ideas in this remarkable achievement.
