Toda Conformal Field Theories (CFTs hereafter) are generalizations of Liouville CFT where the underlying field is no longer scalar but takes values in a finite-dimensional vector space induced by a complex simple Lie algebra. The goal of…

We explore the constraints on the spectrum of primary fields implied by modularity of the elliptic genus of N=(2,2) 2D CFT's. We show that such constraints have nontrivial implications for the existence of "extremal" N=(2,2) conformal field…
