Review text

The author extends the orbifolds theory on modular transformations of twisted characters and on the connection of the fusion algebra of integrable representations of affine Lie algebras with that of finite groups, developed by \textit{V. G. Kac} and \textit{I. T. Todorov} [Commun. Math. Phys. 190, 57-111 (1997; Zbl 0904.17021)], to the characters of principal admissible representations of affine Lie algebras. Already for the simplest case of \(\hat{sl}(2,{\mathbb C})\) the appearance of non-symmetric transformation matrices and associated fusion algebras is observed. To handle them the author extends \textit{G. Lusztig}'s theory of ``fusion datum with a non-symmetric transformation matrix [see Duke Math. J. 73, 227-241 (1994; Zbl 0815.20031] to a more general situation. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0941.00016].
