Representation theory of diagram algebras and logarithmic conformal field theory (2012–2015)

Abstract:
Generalized models of polymers and percolation are notoriously difficult to handle mathematically, but can be described and solved using diagram algebras and logarithmic conformal field theory. Potential applications include polymer-like materials, filtering of drinking water, spatial spread of epidemics and bushfires, and tertiary recovery of oil.
