In a recent work [2] with Datta, we introduced the mu vector (with respect to a given field) of simplicial complexes and used it to study tightness and lower bounds. In this paper, we modify the definition of mu vectors. With the new…
In 2003, Hikami and Kirillov uncovered an intriguing connection between torus knots $\mathcal{K}_{(P,Q)}$ and Virasoro minimal models $\mathcal{M}(P,Q)$ by relating the Kashaev invariants of the knots to the characters of the corresponding…
In Part I, we extend our analysis in [arXiv:0807.1107], and show that a mathematically conjectured geometric Langlands duality for complex surfaces in [1], and its generalizations -- which relate some cohomology of the moduli space of…
We establish an exact mapping between the multiplication table of the irreducible representations of SU(3) and the fusion algebra of the two-dimensional conformal field theory in the same universality class of 3D SU(3) gauge theory at the…
In this thesis steps are taken in the direction of formulating non-critical strings in the framework of the $G/G$ approach. A major part of the thesis is concerned with conformal field theory based on affine $SL(2)$ current algebra, in…
It is now well known that non-local observables in critical statistical lattice models, polymers and percolation for example, may be modelled in the continuum scaling limit by logarithmic conformal field theories. Fusion rules for such…
The countably infinite number of Virasoro representations of the logarithmic minimal model LM(p,p') can be reorganized into a finite number of W-representations with respect to the extended Virasoro algebra symmetry W. Using a lattice…
Some mathematical questions relating to Coset Conformal Field Theories (CFT) are considered in the framework of Algebraic Quantum Field Theory as developed previously by us. We consider the issue of fixed point resolution in the diagonal…
The Virasoro logarithmic minimal models were intensively studied by several groups over the last ten years with much attention paid to the fusion rules and the structures of the indecomposable representations that fusion generates. The…
We give three applications of general theory about braided endomorphisms from conformal inclusions developed previously by us. The first is an example of subfactors associated with conformal inclusion whose dual fusion ring is…
This paper verifies $n\times 1$ Local Converse Theorem for twisted gamma factors of irreducible cuspidal representations of ${\rm GL}_n({\mathbb F}_p)$, for $n\leq 5,$ and of irreducible generic representations, for…
We consider the planar limit of Chern-Simons theories coupled to a scalar $\phi$ in the fundamental representation of a $U(N)_k$ gauge group, at both the regular and Wilson-Fisher conformal points. These theories have one single-trace…
Functional equations, in the form of fusion hierarchies, are studied for the transfer matrices of the fused restricted $A_{n-1}^{(1)}$ lattice models of Jimbo, Miwa and Okado. Specifically, these equations are solved analytically for the…
Drinfel'd used associators to construct families of universal representations of braid groups. We consider semi-associators (i.e., we drop the pentagonal axiom and impose a normalization in degree one). We show that the process may be…
In this paper we characterize irreducible generic representations of $\SO_{2n+1}(k)$ where $k$ is a $p$-adic field) by means of twisted local gamma factors (the Local Converse Theorem). As applications, we prove that two irreducible generic…
In this note we illustrate by a few examples the general principle: interesting algebras and representations defined over Z_+ come from category theory, and are best understood when their categorical origination has been discovered. We show…
The generalization to N=1 superconformal minimal models of the relation between the modular transformation matrix and the fusion rules in rational conformal field theories, the Verlinde theorem, is shown to provide complete information…
A conformal field theory can be recovered, via the Kontsevich-Miwa transform, as a solution to the Virasoro constraints on the KP tau function. That theory, which we call KM CFT, consists of d \leq 1 matter plus a scalar and a dressing…
We construct the theory of a chiral boson with anisotropic scaling, characterized by a dynamical exponent $z$, whose action reduces to that of Floreanini and Jackiw in the isotropic case ($z=1$). The standard free boson with Lifshitz…
We use quantum invariants to define an analytic family of representations for the mapping class group of a punctured surface. The representations depend on a complex number A with |A| <= 1 and act on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space.…
