Applications of Lie (super)algebras to physics, etc. (17B81) Infinite-dimensional groups and algebras motivated by physics, including Virasoro, Kac-Moody, (W)-algebras and other current algebras and their representations (81R10) Two-dimensional field theories, conformal field theories, etc. in quantum mechanics (81T40)
[For the entire collection see Zbl 0727.00018.] Two theorems are proven concerning the chiral algebras of two-dimensional conformal field theories. The first theorem gives an explicit description of the Lie algebra of chiral fields in terms of structure constants which depend on the fields, not on their Fourier coefficients. Then, in order to obtain an algebraic structure with a finite number of generators the modified notion of the normal product is introduced which is obtained from the standard one by projecting onto the non-derivative fields. The second theorem gives a formula for the new normal product in terms of the standard one.
