Coadjoint Orbits and Conformal Field Theory
Washington Taylor
This thesis describes a new approach to conformal field theory. This approach combines the method of coadjoint orbits with resolutions and chiral vertex operators to give a constru…

Virasoro Representations on (Diff S1)/S1 Coadjoint Orbits
Washington Taylor
A new set of realizations of the Virasoro algebra on a bosonic Fock space are found by explicitly computing the Virasoro representations associated with coadjoint orbits of the for…
