Fusion Rings Related to Affine Weyl Groups
Abstract
Description
The construction of the fusion ring of a quasi-rational CFT based on $\hat{sl}(3)_k$ at generic level $k\not \in {\Bbb Q}$ is reviewed. It is a commutative ring generated by formal characters, elements in the group ring ${\Bbb Z}[\tilde{W}]$ of the extended affine Weyl group $\tilde{W}$ of $\hat{sl}(3)_k$. Some partial results towards the $\hat{sl}(4)_k$ generalisation of this character ring are presented.
