Towards the Classification of Conformal Field Theories in Arbitrary Dimension
I identify the subclass of higher-dimensional conformal field theories that is most similar to two-dimensional conformal field theory. In this subclass the domain of validity of the recently proposed formula for the irreversibility of the renormalization-group flow is suitably enhanced. The trace anomaly is quadratic in the Ricci tensor and contains a unique central charge. This implies, in par...
متن کاملKnot invariants from rational conformal field theories
A framework for studying knot and link invariants from any rational conformal field theory is developed. In particular, minimal models, superconformal models and WN models are studied. The invariants are related to the invariants obtained from the Wess-Zumino models associated with the coset representations of these models. Possible Chern-Simons representation of these models is also indicated....
متن کاملBoundary Conditions in Rational Conformal Field Theories
We develop further the theory of Rational Conformal Field Theories (RCFTs) on a cylinder with specified boundary conditions emphasizing the role of a triplet of algebras: the Verlinde, graph fusion and Pasquier algebras. We show that solving Cardy’s equation, expressing consistency of a RCFT on a cylinder, is equivalent to finding integer valued matrix representations of the Verlinde algebra. T...
متن کاملRational Conformal Field Theories and Complex Multiplication
We study the geometric interpretation of two dimensional rational conformal field theories, corresponding to sigma models on Calabi-Yau manifolds. We perform a detailed study of RCFT’s corresponding to T 2 target and identify the Cardy branes with geometric branes. The T ’s leading to RCFT’s admit “complex multiplication” which characterizes Cardy branes as specific D0-branes. We propose a cond...
متن کاملDilogarithm Identities and Characters of Exceptional Rational Conformal Field Theories
Based on our recently published article Fermionic Expressions for the Characters of cp,1 Logarithmic Conformal Field Theories in the journal Nuclear Physics B, fermionic sum representations for the characters of the W(2, 2p−1, 2p−1, 2p−1) series of triplet algebras are obtained, providing further evidence that these logarithmic theories constitute well-defined rational conformal field theories....
