Galois groups in rational conformal field theory II. The discriminant

Abstract

We express the discriminant of the polynomial relations of the fusion ring, in any conformal field theory, as the product of the rows of the modular matrix to the power -2. The discriminant is shown to be an integer, always, which is a product of primes which divide the level. Detailed formulas for the discriminant are given for all WZW conformal field theories.Comment: 19 pages, one table. Minor typos correcte
