The Heisenberg Group and Conformal Field Theory
A mathematical construction of the conformal field theory (CFT) associated to a compact torus, also called the “nonlinear σ-model” or “lattice-CFT”, is given. Underlying this approach to CFT is a unitary modular functor, the construction of which follows from a “Quantization commutes with reduction”type of theorem for unitary quantizations of the moduli spaces of holomorphic torusbundles and ac...
متن کاملQuantum Group Symmetries in Conformal Field Theory
Quantum groups play the role of hidden symmetries of some two-dimensional field theories. We discuss how they appear in this role in the Wess-Zumino-Witten model of conformal field theory.
متن کاملOperads and Conformal Field Theory Lecture 1: Conformal Field Theory
Physicists have developed very advanced methods to compute such integrals. For example, the famous Feynman diagram technique allows us to compute the above integral for a rather particular function S(x), a small perturbation of a positive de nite quadratic form in R . Sometimes, elaborate techniques of physicists to compute simple things nd an amazing application to very general things in mathe...
متن کاملConformal Field Theory Techniques for Large N Group Theory
We show how to use quantum mechanics on the group manifold U(N) as a tool for problems in U(N) representation theory. The quantum mechanics reduces to free fermions on the circle, which in the large N limit become relativistic. The theory can be bosonized giving the Das-Jevicki-Sakita collective field theory. The formalism is particularly suited to problems involving tensor product multiplicity...
