Algebraic quantum field theory is an approach to relativistic quantum physics, notably the theory of elementary particles, which complements other modern developments in this field. It is particularly powerful for structural analysis but…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the cohomology of various algebras over an operad of moduli spaces including the cohomology of conformal field theories (CFT's) and vertex operator algebras (VOA's). This cohomology theory produces…
A new rigorous approach to conformal field theory is presented. The basic objects are families of complex-valued amplitudes, which define a meromorphic conformal field theory (or chiral algebra) and which lead naturally to the definition of…
The theory of modular deformations is generalized for the category of complex analytic polyhedra which includes germs of complex space as well as any compact complex analytic space. The objective of the theory is a construction of fine…
In these notes we explain how the CFT description of random matrix models can be used to perform actual calculations. Our basic example is the hermitian matrix model, reformulated as a conformal invariant theory of free fermions. We give an…
In two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) the building blocks are given by chiral CFTs, i.e.~CFTs on the unit circle (compactified light-ray). They are generated by quantum fields depending on one light-ray coordinate only. There are…
The study explores the conformable electromagnetic field theory. The concept of the conformable delta function is introduced. Subsequently, the conformable Maxwell's equations are derived.
The lectures provide a pedagogical introduction to the methods of CFT as applied to two-dimensional critical behaviour.
Light-cone formulation of conformal field theory in space-time of arbitrary dimension is developed. Conformal fundamental and shadow fields with arbitrary conformal dimension and arbitrary spin are studied. Representation of conformal…
We propose a fractional variant of Mellin's transform which may find an application in the Conformal Field Theory. Its advantage is the presence of an arbitrary parameter which may substantially simplify calculations and help adjusting…
This text contains over three hundred specific open questions on various topics in additive combinatorics, each placed in context by reviewing all relevant results. While the primary purpose is to provide an ample supply of problems for…
These notes offer a lightening introduction to topological quantum field theory in its functorial axiomatisation, assuming no or little prior exposure. We lay some emphasis on the connection between the path integral motivation and the…
The theory of quaternionic modular forms has been studied for decades as an example of the modular forms of many variables. The purpose of this study is to provide some congruence relations satisfied by such quaternionic modular forms.
Using Verlinde formula and the symmetry of the modular matrix we describe an algorithm to find all conformal field theories with low number of primary fields. We employ the algorithm on up to eight primary fields. Four new conformal field…
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…
We discuss some open problems in a program of constructing and studying two-dimensional conformal field theories using the representation theory of vertex operator algebras.
This book describes some computational methods to deal with modular characters of finite groups. It is the theoretical background of the MOC system of the same authors. This system was, and is still used, to compute the modular character…
Algebraic quantum field theory provides a general, mathematically precise description of the structure of quantum field theories, and then draws out consequences of this structure by means of various mathematical tools -- the theory of…
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…
Modulo the ideal generated by the derivative fields, the normal ordered product of holomorphic fields in two-dimensional conformal field theory yields a commutative and associative algebra. The zero mode algebra can be regarded as a…
