Global gauge anomalies in coset models of conformal field theory

We study the occurrence of global gauge anomalies in the coset models of two-dimensional conformal field theory that are based on gauged WZW models. A complete classification of the non-anomalous theories for a wide family of gauged rigid adjoint or twisted-adjoint symmetries of WZW models is achieved with the help of Dynkin's classification of Lie subalgebras of simple Lie algebras.

Chern-Simons Theory on the Torus

We compute explicitly the Schrödinger picture space of states of SU(2) Chern-Simons theory on $T^2\times R$ in the presence of temporal Wilson lines. Relation with Friedan-Shenker bundle of conformal field theory and the existence of a projective flat connection on this bundle is discussed. Talk given by the first author at the XIX International Colloquium on Group Theoretical Methods in Physics, Salamanca (Spain), June 29-July 4, 1992
