abstract

The goal of this paper is to classify ``finite subgroups in U_q sl(2)'' where $q=e^{\pi\i/l}$ is a root of unity. We propose a definition of such a subgroup in terms of the category of representations of U_q sl(2); we show that this definition is a natural generalization of the notion of a subgroup in a reductive group, and that it is also related with extensions of the chiral (vertex operator) algebra corresponding to sl^(2) at level k=l-2. We show that ``finite subgroups in U_q sl(2)'' are classified by Dynkin diagrams of types A_n, D_{2n}, E_6, E_8 with Coxeter number equal to $l$, give a description of this correspondence similar to the classical McKay correspondence, and discuss relation with modular invariants in (sl(2))_k conformal field theory.

    cond-mat.str-el 2026-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A general 2+1d transition theory out of a topological phase, driven by one Abelian anyon, is constructed and shown to depend on a single integer parameter, with p=0 giving gauging.

  4. Fusion rules and rigidity for weight modules over the simple admissible affine $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ and $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal vertex operator superalgebras

    math.QA 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Rigidity of weight module categories for admissible affine sl(2) and N=2 superconformal minimal models is proved, together with the conjectured fusion product decompositions, including non-semisimple summands.

    hep-th 2022-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Higher gauging of 1-form symmetries on surfaces in 2+1d QFT yields condensation defects whose fusion rules involve 1+1d TQFTs and realizes every 0-form symmetry in TQFTs.

  6. ADE triality via (non-)invertible symmetry gauging

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Gauging a non-invertible symmetry exchanges the D7 and E6 minimal models, completing the ADE triality.

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Condensing a diagonal anyon in Virasoro TQFT factorizes wormhole partition functions and produces Liouville CFT on the two boundary surfaces.
