Conformal Field Theory - Nikhef
www.nikhef.nl1.1.3 Conformal invariance A conformal transformation can now be de ned as a coordinate transformation which acts on the metric as a Weyl transformation. Consider a general coordinate transformation x!x0, such that x = f (x0 ). This has the following e ect on the metric g (x) !g0 (x 0) = @fˆ @x 0 @f˙ @x g ˆ˙(f(x0)) : (1.8)
