Let g be a complex semi-simple Lie algebra and g be a semisimple subalgebra of g. Consider the branching problem of decomposing the simple g-representations V as a sum of simple grepresentations V. When g = g x g, it is the tensor product…
We study logarithmic conformal field models that extend the (p,q) Virasoro minimal models. For coprime positive integers $p$ and $q$, the model is defined as the kernel of the two minimal-model screening operators. We identify the field…
Based on symmetry principles, we derive a fusion algebra generated from repeated fusions of the irreducible modules appearing in the W-extended logarithmic minimal model WLM(p,p'). In addition to the irreducible modules themselves, closure…
The Temperley-Lieb (TL) family of algebras is well known for its role in building integrable lattice models. Even though a proof is still missing, it is agreed that these models should go to conformal field theories in the thermodynamic…
We study both bosonic and supersymmetric (p,q) minimal models coupled to Liouville theory using the ground ring and the various branes of the theory. From the FZZT brane partition function, there emerges a unified, geometric description of…
The higher fusion level logarithmic minimal models LM(P,P';n) have recently been constructed as the diagonal GKO cosets (A_1^{(1)})_k oplus (A_1^{(1)})_n / (A_1^{(1)})_{k+n} where n>0 is an integer fusion level and k=nP/(P'-P)-2 is a…
Fusion rules for Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models at fractional level can be defined in two ways, with distinct results. The Verlinde formula yields fusion coefficients that can be negative. These signs cancel in coset fusion rules, however.…
Compact matrix quantum groups are strongly determined by their intertwiner spaces, due to a result by S.L. Woronowicz. In the case of easy quantum groups, the intertwiner spaces are given by the combinatorics of partitions, see the inital…
We consider the fusion algebras arising in e.g. Wess-Zumino-Witten conformal field theories, affine Kac-Moody algebras at positive integer level, and quantum groups at roots of unity. Using properties of the modular matrix $S$, we find…
We consider the AGT correspondence in the context of the conformal field theory $M^{\, p, p^{\prime}}$ $\otimes$ $M^{H}$, where $M^{\, p, p^{\prime}}$ is the minimal model based on the Virasoro algebra $V^{\, p, p^{\prime}}$ labeled by two…
The fusion rules of conformal field theories admitting an sl^(2)-symmetry at level k=-1/2 are studied. It is shown that the fusion closes on the set of irreducible highest weight modules and their images under spectral flow, but not when…
We derive the fusion rules for a basic series of admissible representations of $\hat{sl}(3)$ at fractional level $3/p-3$. The formulae admit an interpretation in terms of the affine Weyl group introduced by Kac and Wakimoto. It replaces the…
We generalize the framework of spurion analysis to a class of selection rules arising from non-invertible fusion algebras in perturbation theory. As a first step toward systematic applications to particle physics, we analyze the near-group…
We propose a series representation for the Virasoro fusion and modular kernels at any irrational central charge. Two distinct, yet closely related formulas are needed for the cases $c\in \mathbb C \backslash (-\infty,1]$ and $c <1$. Our…
Let $\mathcal{F}_{25}$ be the family of irreducible highest weight modules for the Virasoro algebra of central charge $25$ which are not isomorphic to Verma modules. Let $L(25,0)$ be the Virasoro vertex operator algebra of central charge…
We present fermionic sum representations of the characters $\chi^{(p,p')}_{r,s}$ of the minimal $M(p,p')$ models for all relatively prime integers $p'>p$ for some allowed values of $r$ and $s$. Our starting point is binomial (q-binomial)…
The fusion of Verma modules of the osp(1|2) current algebra is studied. In the framework of an isotopic formalism, the singular vector decoupling conditions are analyzed. The fusion rules corresponding to the admissible representations of…
We finish the classification, begun in two earlier papers, of all simple fusion systems over finite nonabelian $p$-groups with an abelian subgroup of index $p$. In particular, this gives many new examples illustrating the enormous variety…
We reconsider the earlier found solutions of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov (KZ) equations describing correlators based on the admissible representations of $A_1^{(1)}$. Exploiting a symmetry of the KZ equations we show that the original…
Let $\mathcal{O}_c$ be the category of finite-length modules for the Virasoro Lie algebra at central charge $c$ whose composition factors are irreducible quotients of reducible Verma modules. For any $c\in\mathbb{C}$, this category admits…
