Some aspects of conformal field theory over Riemann surfaces are examined. We study, in particular, on simple systems (b-c systems) the relation between representations of the Virasoro and the KN algebras.

Abstract

Some aspects of conformal field theory over Riemann surfaces are examined. We study, in particular, on simple systems (b-c systems) the relation between representations of the Virasoro and the KN algebras. KN algebra representations decompose into an infinite sum of the Virasoro algebra representations. We argue that the KN algebra representations are the right tool in order to classify conformal field theories over higher genus Riemann surfaces.
