Unitarity and Ghost
  • Unitarity means  the inner product in the space of states is positive definite
  • A state with negative norm is called a ghost.
  • If a ghost is found on any level the represetation cannot occur in a unitary theory

 

 

Verma module
  • start with given c and h
  • \(M(c,h)\)
  • contains a unique maximal submodule, and its quotient is the unique (up to isomorphism) irreducible representation with highest weight

 

unitary representations
  • They are classified by c>1 and c<1 case.
    • c<1 case = discrete representations
    • Kac determinant formula

 

Discrete series unitary representations
  • c<1 case

 

\(m= 2, 3, 4.\cdots\)

\(c = 1-{6\over m(m+1)} = 0,\quad 1/2,\quad 7/10,\quad 4/5,\quad 6/7,\quad 25/28, \ldots\)

\(h_{r,s}(c) = {((m+1)r-ms)^2-1 \over 4m(m+1)}\)

\(r = 1, 2, 3,\cdots,m-1\)

\(s= 1, 2, 3,\cdots, r\)
