We define chiral fermions in the presence of non-trivial gravitational and gauge background fields in the framework of locally covariant field theory. This allows to straightforwardly compute the chiral anomalies on non-compact Lorentzian…
Rational chiral conformal field theories are organized according to their genus, which consists of a modular tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ and a central charge $c$. A long-term goal is to classify unitary rational conformal field theories…
We study fermionic conformal field theories on surfaces with spin structure in the presence of boundaries, defects, and interfaces. We obtain the relevant crossing relations, taking particular care with parity signs and signs arising from…
A full rational CFT, consistent on all orientable world sheets, can be constructed from the underlying chiral CFT, i.e. a vertex algebra, its representation category C, and the system of chiral blocks, once we select a symmetric special…
In this paper, we classify all finite irreducible conformal modules over a class of Lie conformal algebras $\mathcal{W}(b)$ with $b\in\mathbb{C}$ related to the Virasoro conformal algebra. Explicitly, any finite irreducible conformal module…
The fractional supersymmetry chiral algebras in two-dimensional conformal field theory are extended Virasoro algebras with fractional spin currents. We show that associativity and closure of these algebras determines their structure…
We use the isomorphism between the BMS${}_3$ and the $W(2,2)$ algebras to reconsider some generic aspects of CFTs with the BMS${}_3$ algebra defined as a chiral symmetry. For unitarity theories, it is known that the extended symmetry…
Two dimensional conformal field theories with central charge one are discussed. After a short review of theories based on one free boson, a different CFT is described, which is obtained as a limit of minimal models.
It is proved that an indecomposable Harish-Chandra module over the Virasoro algebra must be (i) a uniformly bounded module, or (ii) a module in Category $\cal O$, or (iii) a module in Category ${\cal O}^-$, or (iv) a module which contains…
We provide a complete classification of unitary subalgebras of even rank-one lattice vertex operator algebras. As a consequence of the correspondence between vertex operator algebras and conformal nets, we also obtain a complete…
Work of the last few years has shown that the key algebraic features of Logarithmic Conformal Field Theories (LCFTs) are already present in some finite lattice systems (such as the XXZ spin-1/2 chain) before the continuum limit is taken.…
We review various aspects of two dimensional conformal field theories paying close attention to the algebraic structures that intervene. We provide a compact description regarding the appearance of a chiral algebra as the symmetry algebra…
We extend Felder's construction of Fock space resolutions for the Virasoro minimal models to all irreducible modules with $c\leq 1$. In particular, we provide resolutions for the representations corresponding to the boundary and exterior of…
We show that it is possible to construct a Virasoro algebra as a central extension of the fractional Witt algebra generated by non-local operators of the form, $L_n^a\equiv\left(\frac{\partial f}{\partial z}\right)^a$ where $a\in {\mathbb…
Pairs $\aa \subset \bb$ of local quantum field theories are studied, where $\aa$ is a chiral conformal \qft and $\bb$ is a local extension, either chiral or two-dimensional. The local correlation functions of fields from $\bb$ have an…
It is shown that time-ordered correlation functions of a unitary CFT$_2$ in 2D Minkowski space admit a single-valued, conformally-invariant extension to the Lorentzian signature torus provided that the $S^1\times S^1$ spatial and temporal…
Topology concepts have significantly deepened of our understanding in recent years of the electronic properties of one-dimensional (1D) nano structures such as the graphene nanoribbons. Controlling topological electronic properties of GNRs…
We show that the category of $C_1$-cofinite modules for the universal $N=1$ super Virasoro vertex operator superalgebra $\mathcal{S}(c,0)$ at any central charge $c$ is locally finite and admits the vertex algebraic braided tensor category…
Let $G$ be an arbitrary additive subgroup of $C$ and $Vir[G]$ the corresponding generalized Virasoro algebra. In the present paper, irreducible weight modules with finite dimensional weight spaces over $Vir[G]$ are completely determined.…
Warped conformal field theories in two dimensions are exotic nonlocal, Lorentz violating field theories characterized by Virasoro-Kac-Moody symmetries and have attracted a lot of attention as candidate boundary duals to warped AdS$_3$…
