Classification of chiral fermionic CFTs of central charge $\le$ 16

We classify two-dimensional purely chiral unitary conformal field theories which are defined on two-dimensional surfaces equipped with spin structure and have central charge less than or equal to 16 16 , and discuss their duality webs. This result can be used to confirm that the list of non-supersym...

Zusammenfassung:We classify two-dimensional purely chiral unitary conformal field theories which are defined on two-dimensional surfaces equipped with spin structure and have central charge less than or equal to 16 16 , and discuss their duality webs. This result can be used to confirm that the list of non-supersymmetric ten-dimensional heterotic string theories found in the late 1980s is complete and does not miss any exotic example.
