By way of intersection theory on $\bar M_{g,n}$, we show that geometric interpretations for conformal blocks, as sections of ample line bundles over projective varieties, do not have to hold at points on the boundary. We show such a…
We introduce a full set of rules to directly express all $M$-point conformal blocks in one- and two-dimensional conformal field theories, irrespective of the topology. The $M$-point conformal blocks are power series expansion in some…
New identities and congruences involving the ranks and cranks of partitions are proved. The proof depends on a new partial differential equation connecting their generating functions.
Using equivariant localization formulas we give a formula for conformal blocks at level one on the sphere as suitable polynomials. Using this presentation we give a generating set in the space of conformal blocks at any level if the marked…
We derive a formula for the Chern classes of the bundles of conformal blocks on \bar{M}_{0,n} associated to simple finite dimensional Lie algebras and explore its consequences in more detail for sl_2 and in general for level 1. We also give…

The divisor theory for graphs is compared to the theory of linear series on curves through the correspondence associating a curve to its dual graph. An algebro-geometric interpretation of the combinatorial rank is proposed, and proved in…

Duality relations for the correlation functions of $n$ sites on the boundary of a planar lattice are derived for the $(N_{\alpha}, N_{\beta})$ model of Domany and Riedel for $n=2,3$. Our result holds for arbitrary lattices which can have…
Here we consider higher Chern classes of vector bundles of conformal blocks on $\overline{\operatorname{M}}_{0,n}$, giving explicit formulas for them, and extending various results that hold for first Chern classes to them. We use these…
The aim of this paper is to study a Lie conformal algebra of Block type. In this paper, conformal derivation, conformal module of rank 1 and low-dimensional comohology of the Lie conformal algebra of Block type are studied. Also, the vertex…
We study the blocks for Ariki-Koike algebras using a general notion of core for $l$-partitions. We interpret the action of the affine symmetric group on the blocks in the context of level rank duality and study the orbits under this action.
Rational conformal field theories produce a tower of finite-dimensional representations of surface mapping class groups, acting on the conformal blocks of the theory. We review this formalism. We show that many recent mathematical…
For any simple Lie algebra, a positive integer, and tuple of compatible weights, the conformal blocks bundle is a globally generated vector bundle on the moduli space of pointed rational curves. We classify all $S_n$-invariant vector…
Conformal blocks are the building blocks for correlation functions in conformal field theories. The four-point function is the most well-studied case. We consider conformal blocks for $n$-point correlation functions. For conformal field…

Motivated by (and using tools from) communication complexity, we investigate the relationship between the following two ranks of a $0$-$1$ matrix: its nonnegative rank and its binary rank (the $\log$ of the latter being the unambiguous…
