    This is a geometrical study of two dimensional field theoretical models with fields taking their values in a Lie group (Wess-Zumino-Witten models). The authors extend their previous study in the case of SU(2) or SO(3) to an arbitrary simple group and give an explicit construction of highest weight states and modular invariant partition functions on tori.
