相关论文: Modular invariants and their fusion rules
Modular invariants satisfy remarkable fusion rules. Let $Z$ be a modular invariant associated to a braided subfactor $N\subset M$. The decomposition of the non-normalized modular invariants $Z Z^{*}$ and $Z^{*}Z$ into sums of normalized…
In these lectures we explain the intimate relationship between modular invariants in conformal field theory and braided subfactors in operator algebras. A subfactor with a braiding determines a matrix $Z$ which is obtained as a coupling…
Several aspects of fusion rings and fusion rule algebras, and of their manifestations in twodimensional (conformal) field theory, are described: diagonalization and the connection with modular invariance; the presentation in terms of…
We review the framework subfactors provide for understanding modular invariants. We discuss the structure of a generalized Longo-Rehren subfactor and the relationship between the coupling matrices of such subfactors, modular invariance and…
The relations and differences between various classification problems arising in the context of local two-dimensional conformal QFT, modular invariants, and subfactors are discussed. The extent to which locality implies modular invariance,…
In this paper we further analyze modular invariants for subfactors, in particular the structure of the chiral induced systems of M-M morphisms. The relative braiding between the chiral systems restricts to a proper braiding on their…
An inclusion of II$_1$ factors $N \subset M$ with finite Jones index gives rise to a powerful set of invariants that can be approached successfully in a number of different ways. We describe Jones' pictorial description of the standard…
In this lecture we explain the intimate relationship between modular invariants in conformal field theory and braided subfactors in operator algebras. Our analysis is based on an approach to modular invariants using braided sector induction…
We study the problem of realising modular invariants by braided subfactors and the related problem of classifying nimreps. We develop the fusion rule structure of these modular invariants. This structure is useful tool in the analysis of…
New invariants for 2-dimensional cell complexes are defined, which can be interpreted as curvature bounds. These invariants are proved to be rational and computable in a companion article. This document is a survey that collects theorems…
We define and study a certain relative tensor product of subfactors over a modular tensor category. This gives a relative tensor product of two completely rational heterotic full local conformal nets with trivial superselection structures…
This paper is devoted to a discussion of specific properties of invariants in the theory of forms.
A module is called automorphism-invariant if it is invariant under any automorphism of its injective envelope. In this survey article we present the current state of art dealing with such class of modules.
The f-invariant is a higher version of the e-invariant that takes values in the divided congruences between modular forms; in the situation of a cartesian product of two framed manifolds, the f-invariant can actually be computed from the…
We discuss two simple but useful observations that allow the construction of modular forms from given ones using invariant theory. The first one deals with elliptic modular forms and their derivatives, and generalizes the Rankin-Cohen…
Nonunique factorization in commutative monoids is often studied using factorization invariants, which assign to each monoid element a quantity determined by the factorization structure. For numerical monoids (co-finite, additive submonoids…
In this paper we develop a general theory of modules which are invariant under automorphisms of their covers and envelopes. When applied to specific cases like injective envelopes, pure-injective envelopes, cotorsion envelopes, projective…
We provide a complete structure theorem for involutory matrices. This yields a new approach to principal angles between subspaces and provide a series of nice formulae for these angles.
A theorem is derived which (i) provides a new class of subfactors which may be interpreted as generalized asymptotic subfactors, and which (ii) ensures the existence of two-dimensional local quantum field theories associated with certain…
Many moduli spaces are constructed as quotients of group actions; this paper surveys the classical theory, as well as recent progress and applications. We review geometric invariant theory for reductive groups and how it is used to…
