The instanton sum in the partition function for D bosons on a Riemann surface of genus g, with values in a general D-dimensional torus, TD = RD/ΛD is given explicitly. When the rational metric Q of the lattice, ΛD, is the identity we get the bosonization formula of Alvarez-Gaumé et al. for SO( 2D ). If Q is orthogonal, in the bosonization formula, we get the theta function associated with the quadratic form Q, if Q is generic we get rational Conformal Field Theory. Also we look for conditions on a twisted spin bundle LE, which may ensure that our partition functions arise from some generalized bosonization formulas.

M Theory

In the first part of this paper we find supergravity solutions corresponding to branes on worldvolumes of the form Rd×Σ where Σ is a Riemann surface. These theories arise when we wrap branes on holomorphic Riemann surfaces inside K3 or CY manifolds. In some cases the theory at low energies is a conformal field theory with two less dimensions. We find some non-singular supersymmetric compactifications of M-theory down to AdS5. We also propose a criterion for permissible singularities in supergravity solutions. In the second part of this paper, which can be read independently of the first, we show that there are no non-singular Randall-Sundrum or de-Sitter compactifications for large class of gravity theories.

Wigner Transformation

AbstractWe formulate a ℤk-parafermionization/bosonization scheme for one-dimensional lattice models and field theories on a torus, starting from a generalized Jordan-Wigner transformation on a lattice, which extends the Majorana-Ising duality atk= 2. The ℤk-parafermionization enables us to investigate the critical theories of parafermionic chains whose fundamental degrees of freedom are parafermionic, and we find that their criticality cannot be described by any existing conformal field theory. The modular transformations of these parafermionic low-energy critical theories as general consistency conditions are found to be unconventional in that their partition functions on a torus transform differently from any conformal field theory whenk >2. Explicit forms of partition functions are obtained by the developed parafermionization for a large class of critical ℤk-parafermionic chains, whose operator contents are intrinsically distinct from any bosonic or fermionic model in terms of conformal spins and statistics. We also use the parafermionization to exhaust all the ℤk-parafermionic minimal models, complementing earlier works on fermionic cases.

Continuum Field

The radius dependence of partition functions is explicitly evaluated in the continuum field theory of a compactified boson, interacting with two-dimensional quantum gravity (noncritical string) on Riemann surfaces for the first few genera. The partition function for the torus is found to be a sum of terms proportional to R and 1/R. This is in agreement with the result of a discretized version (matrix models), but is quite different from the critical string. The supersymmetric case is also explicitly evaluated.

Horizon Geometry

A conformal field theory on the boundary of three-dimensional asymptotic anti-de Sitter spaces which appear as near horizon geometry of D-brane bound states is discussed. It is shown that partition functions of gravitational instantons appear as high and low temperature limits of the partition function of the conformal field theory. The result reproduces phase transition between the anti-de Sitter space and the BTZ black hole in the bulk gravity.

Higher Genus

We consider the Feigin-Fuchs-Felder formalism of the SU (2)k× SU (2)l/ SU (2)k+l coset minimal conformal field theory and extend it to higher genus. We investigate a double BRST complex with respect to two compatible BRST charges, one associated with the parafermion sector and the other associated with the minimal sector in the theory. The usual screened vertex operator is extended to the BRST-invariant screened three-string vertex. We carry out a sewing operation of these vertices and derive the BRST-invariant screened g-loop operator. The latter operator characterizes the higher genus structure of the theory. An analogous operator formalism for the topological minimal model is obtained as the limit l=0 of the coset theory. We give some calculations of correlation functions on higher genus.

Verlinde Formula

These are notes of my lectures held at the first School & Workshop on Logarithmic Conformal Field Theory and its Applications, September 2001 in Tehran, Iran. These notes cover only selected parts of the by now quite extensive knowledge on logarithmic conformal field theories. In particular, I discuss the proper generalization of null vectors towards the logarithmic case, and how these can be used to compute correlation functions. My other main topic is modular invariance, where I discuss the problem of the generalization of characters in the case of indecomposable representations, a proposal for a Verlinde formula for fusion rules and identities relating the partition functions of logarithmic conformal field theories to such of well known ordinary conformal field theories. The two main topics are complemented by some remarks on ghost systems, the Haldane-Rezayi fractional quantum Hall state, and the relation of these two to the logarithmic c=-2 theory.

Operator Construction

We propose an explicit operator construction for the algebro-geometric τ-function in terms of a bosonic conformal field theory on Riemann surfaces. As a consequence, the operator Bosonization formulae for fermionic bc systems on Riemann surfaces are deduced.
