Operator algebras and conformal field theory
F Gabbiani, J Fröhlich - Communications in mathematical physics, 1993 - Springer
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 …

Modular invariance as completeness
We review the physical meaning of modular invariance for unitary conformal quantum field
theories in d= 2. For quantum field theory models, while T invariance is necessary for …

Superselection sectors with braid group statistics and exchange algebras II: Geometric aspects and conformal covariance
The general theory of superselection sectors is shown to provide almost all the structure
observed in two-dimensional conformal field theories. Its application to two-dimensional …

Classification of local conformal nets. Case c< 1
We completely classify diffeomorphism covariant local nets of von Neumann algebras on the
circle with central charge c less than 1. The irreducible ones are in bijective correspondence …

[BOOK][B] From vertex operator algebras to conformal nets and back
We consider unitary simple vertex operator algebras whose vertex operators satisfy certain
energy bounds and a strong form of locality and call them strongly local. We present a …

Quantum energy inequalities in two-dimensional conformal field theory
CJ Fewster, S Hollands - Reviews in Mathematical Physics, 2005 - World Scientific
Quantum energy inequalities (QEIs) are state-independent lower bounds on weighted
averages of the stress-energy tensor, and have been established for several free quantum …
