Description

Book Synopsis
Gives an exposition of the relations among the following three topics: monoidal tensor categories (such as a category of representations of a quantum group), 3-dimensional topological quantum field theory, and 2-dimensional modular functors (which naturally arise in 2-dimensional conformal field theory).

Table of Contents
Introduction Braided tensor categories Ribbon categories Modular tensor categories 3-dimensional topological quantum field theory Modular functor Moduli spaces and complex modular functor Wess-Zumino-Witten model Bibliography Index Index of notation.
