abstract
We calculate formation probabilities of the ground state of the finite size quantum critical chains using conformal field theory (CFT) techniques. In particular, we calculate the formation probability of one interval in the finite open chain and also formation probability of two disjoint intervals in a finite periodic system. The presented formulas can be also interpreted as the Casimir energy of needles in particular geometries. We numerically check the validity of the exact CFT results in the case of the transverse field Ising chain.

Emptiness formation probability and Painlev\'e V equation in the XY spin chain
The emptiness formation probability of the XY chain, in the double-scaling limit near its critical lines, is governed by a Painleve V tau function; the result is exact at the Ising point and numerically supported elsewhere.
