Journal ArticleDOI
TFT construction of RCFT correlators I: partition functions
TL;DR: In this article, rational conformal field theory is formulated in terms of a symmetric special Frobenius algebra A and its representations, which is an algebra in the modular tensor category of Moore-Seiberg data of the underlying chiral CFT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flux stabilization of D-branes
TL;DR: In this paper, the masses, multiplicities and spectrum of small fluctuations of D-branes on group manifolds were derived from Born-Infeld action in the case of the SU(2) group manifold, and they agree with the predictions of Conformal Field Theory, to all orders in the α' expansion.

Journal ArticleDOI
Duality and defects in rational conformal field theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study topological defect lines in two-dimensional rational conformal field theory and show how the resulting onedimensional phase boundaries can be used to extract symmetries and order-disorder dualities of the CFT.
Journal ArticleDOI
TFT construction of RCFT correlators: III: simple currents
TL;DR: In this paper, simple currents are used to construct symmetric special Frobenius algebras in modular tensor categories, leading to modular invariant torus partition functions that have been studied by Kreuzer and Schellekens.
