Abstract

We obtain the characters for the level-two SU(2) Wess-Zumino-Witten model on the higher-genus Riemann surfaces from the Goddard-Kent-Olive coset construction using the characters for the Ising model. The two-point correlators are constructed by pinching the nonzero-homology cycle and it is easy to obtain the n-point correlators by repeating the pinching limits.
