Conformally flat factorization homology (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
This talk presents conformally flat factorization homology, introduced as a conformal Riemannian analogue of Lurie's factorization homology. Ordinary factorization homology takes a d-disk algebra as input and produces invariants of d-dimensional manifolds that are independent of the choice of metric. In contrast, conformally flat factorization homology takes as input a conformally flat d-disk algebra, which is an algebra over the operad formed by conformal open embeddings of disks, and constructs, via its left Kan extension, metric-dependent invariants of conformally flat Riemannian manifolds.

This theory provides a framework connecting representations of local conformal transformations with Riemannian geometric invariants, and describes the local structure of d-dimensional conformal field theory. The talk will also discuss concrete examples constructed using Bergman spaces and Grunsky operators in dimension two, and using unitary representations of SO+(d,1) in dimensions three and higher.

This talk is based on arXiv:2602.08729 and arXiv:2603.06491.
