The Critical Ising Model on a M\"obius Strip
Abstract
We study the two-dimensional critical Ising model on a M\"obius strip based on a duality relation between conformally invariant boundary conditions. By using a Majorana fermion field theory, we obtain explicit representations of crosscap states corresponding to the boundary states. We also discuss the duality structure of the partition functions.
