The logarithmic triplet theory with boundary
The boundary theory for the c=-2 triplet model is investigated in detail. In
particular, we show that there are four different boundary conditions that
preserve the triplet algebra, and check the consistency of the corresponding
boundary operators by constructing their OPE coefficients explicitly. We also
compute the correlation functions of two bulk fields in the presence of a
boundary, and verify that they are consistent with factorisation.Comment: 43 pages, LaTeX; v2: references added, typos corrected, footnote 4

W-extended Kac representations and integrable boundary conditions in the logarithmic minimal models WLM(1,p)
We construct new Yang-Baxter integrable boundary conditions in the lattice
approach to the logarithmic minimal model WLM(1,p) giving rise to reducible yet
indecomposable representations of rank 1 in the continuum scaling limit. We
interpret these W-extended Kac representations as finitely-generated W-extended
Feigin-Fuchs modules over the triplet W-algebra W(p). The W-extended fusion
rules of these representations are inferred from the recently conjectured
Virasoro fusion rules of the Kac representations in the underlying logarithmic
minimal model LM(1,p). We also introduce the modules contragredient to the
W-extended Kac modules and work out the correspondingly-extended fusion
algebra. Our results are in accordance with the Kazhdan-Lusztig dual of tensor
products of modules over the restricted quantum universal enveloping algebra
at . Finally, polynomial fusion rings
isomorphic with the various fusion algebras are determined, and the
corresponding Grothendieck ring of characters is identified.Comment: 28 page
Fusion rules and boundary conditions in the c=0 triplet model
The logarithmic triplet model W_2,3 at c=0 is studied. In particular, we
determine the fusion rules of the irreducible representations from first
principles, and show that there exists a finite set of representations,
including all irreducible representations, that closes under fusion. With the
help of these results we then investigate the possible boundary conditions of
the W_2,3 theory. Unlike the familiar Cardy case where there is a consistent
boundary condition for every representation of the chiral algebra, we find that
for W_2,3 only a subset of representations gives rise to consistent boundary
conditions. These then have boundary spectra with non-degenerate two-point
correlators.Comment: 50 pages; v2: changed formulation in section 1.2.1 and corrected
