The paper presents some new results on Z-related sets obtained by computational methods. We give a complete enumeration of all Z-related sets in $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$ for small $N$. Furthermore, we establish that there is a reasonable…
We show how the WDVV equations and the DZM system can be characterized via a background family of functions.
We investigate the constraints of crossing symmetry on CFT correlation functions. Four point conformal blocks are naturally viewed as functions on the upper-half plane, on which crossing symmetry acts by PSL(2,Z) modular transformations.…
We describe the construction of vector valued modular forms transforming under a given congruence representation of the modular group SL$(\bold Z)$ in terms of theta series. We apply this general setup to obtain closed and easily computable…
We show that crossing symmetry of four point functions in the $H_3^+$ WZNW model follows from similar properties of certain five point correlation functions in Liouville theory that have already been proven previously.
We provide a brief but self-contained review of two-dimensional conformal field theory, from the basic principles to some of the simplest models. From the representations of the Virasoro algebra on the one hand, and the state-field…
We continue our study of symplectically flat bundles. We broaden the notion of symplectically flat connections on symplectic manifolds to $\zeta$-flat connections on smooth manifolds. These connections on principal bundles can be…
Usual coset construction $\SU{k}\times\SU{l}/\SU{k+l}$ of Wess--Zumino conformal field theory is presented as a coset construction of minimal models. This new coset construction can be defined rigorously and allows one to calculate easily…
We study possible smooth deformations of Generalized Free Conformal Field Theories in arbitrary dimensions by exploiting the singularity structure of the conformal blocks dictated by the null states. We derive in this way, at the first non…
In the spirit of the quantum Hamiltonian reduction we establish a relation between the chiral $n$-point functions, as well as the equations governing them, of the $A_1^{(1)}$ WZNW conformal theory and the corresponding Virasoro minimal…
Let W be a Coxeter group. In this paper, we establish that, up to going to some finite index normal subgroup W_0 of W, any two cyclically reduced expressions of conjugate elements of W_0 only differ by a sequence of braid relations and…
By interpreting the fusion matrix as an adjacency matrix we associate a loop model to every primary operator of a generic conformal field theory. The weight of these loop models is given by the quantum dimension of the corresponding primary…
We attempt a direct derivation of a conformal field theory description of 2D quantum gravity~+~matter from the formalism of integrable hierarchies subjected to Virasoro constraints. The construction is based on a generalization of the…
This article is a sequel to hep-th/9411050, q-alg/9412017, q-alg/9503013. Given a collection of $m$ finite factorizable sheaves $\{\CX_k\}$, we construct here some perverse sheaves over configuration spaces of points on a projective line…
We propose a systematic method to extract conformal loop models for rational conformal field theories (CFT). Method is based on defining an ADE model for boundary primary operators by using the fusion matrices of these operators as…
By exploring the description of chiral blocks in terms of co-invariants, a derivation of the Verlinde formula for WZW models is obtained which is entirely based on the representation theory of affine Lie algebras. In contrast to existing…
We uncover a striking connection between conformal blocks and fractional calculus. By employing a modified form of half-derivates, we derived explicitly the exact form of the three-dimensional conformal block, expressed as the product of…
All unitary Rational Conformal Field Theories (RCFT) are conjectured to be related to unitary coset Conformal Field Theories, i.e., gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models with compact gauge groups. In this paper we use subfactor theory and…
We find a new family of non-separable coordinate transformations bringing the FRW metrics into the manifestly conformally flat form. Our results are simple and complete, while our derivation is quite explicit. We also calculate all the FRW…
In hep-th/9506151 we started a programme devoted to the systematic study of the conformal field theories derived from WZW models based on nonreductive Lie groups. In this, the second part, we continue this programme with a look at the N=1…
