The A-D-E classification of conformal invariant field theories in two dimensions
Description
We review the construction of the partition function on a torus for conformal invariant theories. For central charge lower than one, the condition of modular invariance on a torus determines the fields appearing in the theory. These sets of fields are in one-to-one correspondance with Lie algebras of type A, D and E. Some theories with extended symmetry are similarly classified
