Logarithmic conformal field theory: beyond an introduction

T Creutzig, D Ridout - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
This article aims to review a selection of central topics and examples in logarithmic
conformal field theory. It begins with the remarkable observation of Cardy that the horizontal …

Tensor categories and the mathematics of rational and logarithmic conformal field theory

YZ Huang, J Lepowsky - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the construction of braided tensor categories and modular tensor categories from
representations of vertex operator algebras, which correspond to chiral algebras in physics …

A QFT for non-semisimple TQFT

T Creutzig, T Dimofte, N Garner, N Geer - arXiv preprint arXiv:2112.01559, 2021 - arxiv.org
We construct a family of 3d quantum field theories $\mathcal T_ {n, k}^ A $ that conjecturally
provide a physical realization--and derived generalization--of non-semisimple mathematical …

Tensor categories for vertex operator superalgebra extensions

T Creutzig, S Kanade, R McRae - arXiv preprint arXiv:1705.05017, 2017 - arxiv.org
Let $ V $ be a vertex operator algebra with a category $\mathcal {C} $ of (generalized)
modules that has vertex tensor category structure, and thus braided tensor category …

On the triplet vertex algebra W (p)

D Adamović, A Milas - Advances in Mathematics, 2008 - Elsevier
We study the triplet vertex operator algebra W (p) of central charge 1− 6 (p− 1) 2p, p⩾ 2. We
show that W (p) is C2-cofinite but irrational since it admits indecomposable and logarithmic …

On ribbon categories for singlet vertex algebras

T Creutzig, R McRae, J Yang - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2021 - Springer
We construct two non-semisimple braided ribbon tensor categories of modules for each
singlet vertex operator algebra M (p), p≥ 2. The first category consists of all finite-length M …

Logarithmic tensor category theory for generalized modules for a conformal vertex algebra, I: Introduction and strongly graded algebras and their generalized modules

YZ Huang, J Lepowsky, L Zhang - … : Proceedings of a Workshop Held at …, 2014 - Springer
This is the first part in a series of papers in which we introduce and develop a natural,
general tensor category theory for suitable module categories for a vertex (operator) …

3-manifolds and VOA characters

MCN Cheng, S Chun, B Feigin, F Ferrari… - … in Mathematical Physics, 2024 - Springer
By studying the properties of q-series Z^-invariants, we develop a dictionary between 3-
manifolds and vertex algebras. In particular, we generalize previously known entries in this …

The ABC (in any D) of Logarithmic CFT

M Hogervorst, M Paulos, A Vichi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract Logarithmic conformal field theories have a vast range of applications, from critical
percolation to systems with quenched disorder. In this paper we thoroughly examine the …

Ribbon tensor structure on the full representation categories of the singlet vertex algebras

T Creutzig, R McRae, J Yang - Advances in Mathematics, 2023 - Elsevier
We show that the category of finite-length generalized modules for the singlet vertex algebra
M (p), p∈ Z> 1, is equal to the category OM (p) of C 1-cofinite M (p)-modules, and that this …
