On generalizations of Verlinde's formula

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

It is shown that traces of mapping classes of finite order may be expressed by Verlinde-like formulae. The 3D topological argument is explained, and the resulting trace identities for modular matrix elements are presented.
