The structure of sectors associated with Longo–Rehren inclusions II: examples

M Izumi - Reviews in Mathematical Physics, 2001 - World Scientific
As an application of the general theory established in the first part, we determine the
structure of Longo–Rehren inclusions for several systems of sectors arising from …

Modular invariance as completeness

V Benedetti, H Casini, Y Kawahigashi, R Longo… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
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 …

A mathematical theory of gapless edges of 2d topological orders. Part I

L Kong, H Zheng - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract This is the first part of a two-part work on a unified mathematical theory of gapped
and gapless edges of 2d topological orders. We analyze all the possible observables on the …

Classification of local conformal nets. Case c< 1

Y Kawahigashi, R Longo - Annals of mathematics, 2004 - JSTOR
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] Tensor categories and endomorphisms of von neumann algebras: with applications to quantum field theory

M Bischoff, Y Kawahigashi, R Longo, KH Rehren - 2015 - books.google.com
C* tensor categories are a point of contact where Operator Algebras and Quantum Field
Theory meet. They are the underlying unifying concept for homomorphisms of (properly …

Categories of quantum liquids II

L Kong, H Zheng - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2024 - Springer
We continue to develop the theory of separable higher categories, including center functors,
higher centralizers, modular extensions and group theoretical higher fusion categories …

[HTML][HTML] Gapless edges of 2d topological orders and enriched monoidal categories

L Kong, H Zheng - Nuclear Physics B, 2018 - Elsevier
In this work, we give a mathematical description of a chiral gapless edge of a 2d topological
order (without symmetry). We show that the observables on the 1+ 1D world sheet of such …

Local fields in boundary conformal QFT

R Longo, KH Rehren - Reviews in Mathematical Physics, 2004 - World Scientific
Conformal quantum field theory on the half-space x> 0 of Minkowski space-time (" boundary
CFT") is analyzed from an algebraic point of view, clarifying in particular the algebraic …

Conformal subnets and intermediate subfactors

R Longo - Communications in mathematical physics, 2003 - Springer
Given an irreducible local conformal net 𝒜 of von Neumann algebras on S 1 and a finite-
index conformal subnet ℬ⊂ 𝒜, we show that 𝒜 is completely rational iff ℬ is completely …
