, 1998
"... We review the generalization of field theory to space-time with noncommuting coordinates, starting with the basics and covering most of the active directions of research. Such theories are now known to emerge from limits of M theory and string theory, and to describe quantum Hall states. In the last ..."

Subfactors and Conformal Field Theory
, 1992
"... Abstract. We discuss relations between the combinatorial structure of subfactors, solvable lattice models, (rational) conformal field theory, and topological quantum field theory. Key words: conformal field theory, modular automorphism group, modular invariant, orbifold construction, statistical mec ..."

Boundary Conformal Field Theory ∗
, 2008
"... Boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) is simply the study of conformal field theory (CFT) in domains with a boundary. It gains its significance because, in some ways, it is mathematically simpler: the algebraic and geometric structures of CFT appear in a more straightforward manner; and because it ..."

The purpose of this paper is to investigate this space by what is known as perturbative methods. First, however, it is important to note that the moduli space itself is not yet w ..."

The Logarithmic Conformal Field Theories
, 1996
"... We study the correlation functions of logarithmic conformal field theories. First, assuming conformal invariance, we explicitly calculate two-- and three-- point functions. This calculation is done for the general case of more than one logarithmic field in a block, and more than one set of logarithm ..."

ON THE CONFORMAL FIELD THEORY
, 1997
"... We study 1+1-dimensional theories of vector and hypermultiplets with (4, 4) supersymmetry. Despite strong infrared fluctuations, these theories flow in general to distinct conformal field theories on the Coulomb and Higgs branches. In some cases there is a quantum Higgs theory even when there is no ..."

Operator Algebras and Conformal Field Theory

, 1993
"... We define and study two-dimensional, chiral conformal field theory by the methods of algebraic field theory. We start by characterizing the vacuum sectors of such theories and show that, under very general hypotheses, their algebras of local observables are isomorphic to the unique hyperfinite typ ..."
