A two-dimensional conformal field theory is invariant under local holomorphic and antiholomorphic conformal transformations.
Two-dimensional Conformal Field Theory (2D CFT) is a branch of theoretical physics that studies two-dimensional quantum field theories that are invariant under conformal transformations. These transformations include translations, rotations, dilations (scaling), and special conformal transformations, which preserve angles but not necessarily lengths. ### Key Features of 2D CFT: 1. **Conformal Symmetry**: In two dimensions, the conformal group is infinite-dimensional.
