摘要
The critical properties of the three-state Potts model are investigated using Monte Carlo simulations. Special interest is given to the measurement of three-point correlation Functions and associated universal objects, i.e., structure constants. The results agree well with predictions coming from conformal field theory, confirming, for this example, the correctness of the Coulomb gas formalism and the bootstrap method.
