The idea of locality
Victor G. Kac
This is a review of recent results on conformal (super)algebras. It may be viewed as an amplification of my Wigner medal acceptance speech (given in July 1996 in Goslar, Germany) r…
-Conformal Algebras
Maria Golenishcheva-Kutuzova, Victor Kac
-conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields with simple poles at finitely many points. We classify these algebras and their…
Formal distribution algebras and conformal algebras
Victor G. Kac
Conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion (or rather its Fourier transform) of chiral fields in a conformal field theory. This is a review of…
Extensions of conformal modules
Shun-Jen Cheng, Victor Kac, Minoru Wakimoto
In this paper we classify extensions between irreducible finite conformal modules over the Virasoro algebra, over the current algebras and over their semidirect sums.
Conformal Modules
Shun-Jen Cheng, Victor Kac
In this paper we study a class of modules over infinite-dimensional Lie (super)algebras, which we call conformal modules. In particular we classify and construct explicitly all irr…
