Abstract
We consider the multiple edge states of the Laughlin state and the Pfaffian state. These edge states are globally constrained through the operator algebra of conformal field theory in the bulk. We analyze these constraints by introducing an expression of quantum hall state by the chiral vertex operators and obtain the multiple edge partition functions by using the Verlinde formula.
