An SL(2,C)-parametrized family of exactly solvable non-unitary conformal interfaces is constructed on the lattice in unitary CFTs via analytic continuation, leading to a non-unitary Cardy condition and logarithmic entanglement with generally complex effective central charge.

abstract
For the case of the SU(2) WZW model at level one, the boundary states that only preserve the conformal symmetry are analysed. Under the assumption that the usual Cardy boundary states as well as their marginal deformations are consistent, the most general conformal boundary states are determined. They are found to be parametrised by group elements in SL(2,C).
