| Title: | Recent Developments in the Study of Rational Conformal Field Theories |
| Date (JST): | Thu, Jul 28, 2016, 13:15 - 14:30 |
| Place: | Seminar Room B |
| Abstract: | I will review recent works in which modular-invariant differential equations have been used to (i) discover new candidate Rational Conformal Field Theories, (ii) propose a generalised coset construction which explains the existence of these theories, (iii)classify a family of theories having no Kac-Moody algebra. In the process, we find interesting relationships with the CFT associated to the Monster and Baby Monster Modules. |
