Chris Raymond's Page

I'm currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at Université Laval working with Michael Lau. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Mathematical Sciences Institute at the Australian National University working with James Tener. I study mathematical aspects of conformal field theories by looking at vertex operator algebras using algebraic and representation-theoretic techniques. My recent work has investigated the relationship between VOAs and conformal nets as axiomatic descriptions of conformal field theory. I am also interested in the representation theory of logarithmic CFTs, particularly W-algebras, as well as the VOAs and related structures that arise in higher-dimensional quantum field theories.
