Rational vertex operator algebras from 3d supersymmetric field theories |

| 초록본문(Abstract) | I will discuss a new class of 3d topological field theories that support non-unitary rational vertex operator algebras (VOA) on their boundary. These theories are obtained by topologically twisting 3d N=4 superconformal QFTs with zero-dimensional Coulomb and Higgs branches. I will explain why they are expected to furnish rational VOAs and describe examples that give rise to Virasoro minimal models. This construction also leads to novel level-rank dualities among a certain class of rational VOAs. |
