In this note, we examine the gauging of the $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ permutation action on the tensor square of a modular tensor category. When $\mathcal{C}$ has no nontrivial invertible objects, we provide formulas for the fusion rules of…
We return to the fusion rules for the Drinfeld double of the duals of the generalised Taft algebras that we studied in [9]. We first correct some proofs and statements in [9] that were incorrect, using stable homomorphisms. We then complete…
We formulate a set of general rules for computing $d$-dimensional four-point global conformal blocks of operators in arbitrary Lorentz representations in the context of the embedding space operator product expansion formalism…
Fusion rules generalize groups by allowing multivalued multiplication. Groups are fusion rules of simple current index 1. We classify nilpotent (in the sense of Gelaki and Nikshych) fusion rules of simple current index 2, and characterize…
The classification of rational conformal field theories is reconsidered from the standpoint of boundary conditions. Solving Cardy's equation expressing the consistency condition on a cylinder is equivalent to finding integer valued…
We formulate a general prescription for spurion analysis in particle-physics models whose selection rules are described by commutative non-invertible fusion algebras. The construction applies to fusion algebras containing non-invertible…
"Fusion rules" are laws of multiplication among eigenspaces of an idempotent. This terminology is relatively new and is closely related to axial algebras, introduced recently by Hall, Rehren and Shpectorov. Axial algebras, in turn, are…
In rational conformal field theory, the Verlinde formula computes the fusion coefficients from the modular S-transformations of the characters of the chiral algebra's representations. Generalising this formula to logarithmic models has…
Using unitarity, analyticity and crossing symmetry, we derive universal sum rules for scattering amplitudes in theories invariant under an arbitrary symmetry group. The sum rules relate the coefficients of the energy expansion of the…
We investigate Fuchsian equations arising in the context of 2-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) and we apply the Katz theory of Fucshian rigid systems to solve some of these equations. We show that the Katz theory provides a precise…
We study the q-characters and modular data of exceptional W-algebras and give several examples and applications. We establish equality of q-characters and modular data between certain boundary W-algebras, leading in particular to a largely…
We completely determine the fusion rules for the vertex operator algebra $V_L^+$ for a rank one even lattice $L$.
We study sum rules that control the Regge limit of one-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) correlators and relate them to dual bulk scattering processes at high energies in $\mathrm{AdS}_2$. By imposing the condition that no scattering…
The concept of fusing rules for defects in a^(1)_r affine Toda field theories is introduced in the classical and quantum contexts. This idea is employed in finding a new transmission matrix for the a^(1)_3 theory which obeys the triangle…
A generalization of exterior calculus is considered by allowing the partial derivatives in the exterior derivative to assume fractional orders. That is, a fractional exterior derivative is defined. This is found to generate new vector…
We derive a set of sum rules for the light-by-light scattering and fusion: $\gamma\gamma \to all$, and verify them in lowest order QED calculations. A prominent implication of these sum rules is the superconvergence of the…
The fusion rules in $\mathrm{Rep}_f D(G)$ for a finite group $G$ can be computed in terms of character inner products. Using an explicit formula for these fusion rules, we show that $\mathrm{Rep}_f D(G)$ is multiplicity free for two…
The exact quantum $S$-matrices and conserved charges are known for affine Toda field theories(ATFTs). In this note we report on a new type of bi-linear sum rules of conserved quantities derived from these exact $S$ matrices. They exist when…
We review some results recently obtained for the conformal field theories based on the affine Lie superalgebra osp(1|2). In particular, we study the representation theory of the osp(1|2) current algebras and their character formulas. By…
We present an algorithm for an efficient calculation of the fusion rules of twisted representations of untwisted affine Lie algebras. These fusion rules appear in WZW orbifold theories and as annulus coefficients in boundary WZW theories;…
