· Mod. Phys. Letters B; (United States)
A large class of 2D conformal field theories with extended Virasoro algebras related to the GKO construction on the coset SU(2) circle times SU(2)/SU(2) is introduced. Through a Feigin-Fuchs construction the Kac formula is deduced. Characters of the highest-weight irreducible representations are given in terms of the GKO decomposition branching functions. Modular invariant partition functions are constructed and an A-D-E classification based on a triple of simply-laced Lie algebras is analyzed in detail.
