We find the fusion rules for the cp,1 series of logarithmic conformal field theories. This completes our attempts to generalize the concept of rationality for conformal field theories to the logarithmic case. A novelty is the appearance of negative fusion coefficients which can be understood in terms of exceptional quantum group representations. The effective fusion rules (i.e. without signs and multiplicities) resemble the BPZ fusion rules for the virtual minimal models with conformal grid given via c = c3p,3. This leads to the conjecture that (almost) all minimal models with c = cp,q, gcd (p,q) > 1, belong to the class of rational logarithmic conformal field theories.

We obtain an explicit reconstruction theorem for rational conformal field theories and other situations where we are presented with a braided or quasitensor category [Formula: see text]. It takes the form of a generalized Fourier transform. The reconstructed object turns out to be a quantum group in a generalized sense. Our results include both the Tannaka-Krein case where there is a functor [Formula: see text], and the case where there is no functor at all.

We construct knot invariants from the radical part of projective modules of the restricted quantum group [Formula: see text] at [Formula: see text], and we also show a relation between these invariants and the colored Alexander invariants. These projective modules are related to logarithmic conformal field theories.

Abstract We investigate perturbatively tractable deformations of topological defects in two-dimensional conformal field theories. We perturbatively compute the change in the g-factor, the reflectivity, and the entanglement entropy of the conformal defect at the end of these short RG flows. We also give instances of such flows in the diagonal Virasoro and Super-Virasoro Minimal Models.
