Bosonic ghosts at \(c=2\) as a logarithmic CFT (Q2255405): Difference between revisions

The paper under review studies bosonic ghost systems of central charge \(c=2\) using the formalism for logarithmic conformal field theories. The main idea behind the paper is to consider a family of parabolic Verma modules which dominate the spectrum of the theory. It this way the following results are obtained: \(S\)-transformation formulae for the highest weight characters, proof of non-negativity for coefficients in the Verlinde product rule, construction of an infinite series of modular invariant partition functions. The appendix of the paper recalls the fusion rules of the \(c=-1\) bosonic ghost system for comparison.
