摘要
We systematically study the exclusion statistics for quasi-particles for Conformal Field Theory spectra by employing a method based on recursion relations for truncated spectra, Our examples include generalized fermions in c(CFT) < 1 unitary minimal models, Z(k) parafermions, and spinons for the su(n)(1), so(n)(1) and sp(2n)(1) Wess-Zumino-Witten models. For some of the latter examples we present explicit expressions for finitized affine characters and for the N-spinon decomposition of affine characters. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
