Modularity conjecture for admissible affine Lie algebra modules

At least 8 years old · documented by

Let g\mathfrak g be a simple Lie algebra, with dual Coxeter number h∨h^\vee and lacety dd. Let ℓ=−h∨+ab\ell=-h^\vee+\frac{a}{b} be an admissible level, where a,ba,b are coprime positive integers, and set

q=e2πi2d(ℓ+h∨).q=e^{\frac{2\pi i}{2d(\ell+h^\vee)}}.

Let Oℓ,ord⁡\mathcal O_{\ell,\operatorname{ord}} be the braided tensor category constructed in the paper. A braided tensor category is modular when it has the required nondegenerate modular tensor-category structure. Modularity conjecture. The category Oℓ,ord⁡\mathcal O_{\ell,\operatorname{ord}} is modular except in the following cases, with n∈Z>0n\in\mathbb Z_{>0}:

  1. g∈{sl2n,so2n,e7,spn}\mathfrak g\in\{\mathfrak{sl}_{2n},\mathfrak{so}_{2n},\mathfrak e_7,\mathfrak{sp}_n\} and bb is even.
  2. g=so4n+1\mathfrak g=\mathfrak{so}_{4n+1} and b≡0(mod4)b\equiv0\pmod 4.
  3. g=so4n+3\mathfrak g=\mathfrak{so}_{4n+3} and b≡2(mod4)b\equiv2\pmod 4.

This conjecture concerns the nondegeneracy of the braided tensor categories arising from admissible affine Lie algebra modules. The paper proves it for g=sl2\mathfrak g=\mathfrak{sl}_2, while the general assertion remains open in the supplied text.
