Abstract: A seminar from the Geometric Aspects of Discrete and Ultra-discrete Integrable Systems conference in association with the Newton Institute programme: Discrete Integrable Systems

I will present a combinatorial construction of the fusion ring of csu(n)k-WZNW conformal field theory. The structure constants of this ring are known to be dimensions of moduli spaces of generalized 0-functions, the main result is that they can be expressed as matrix elements of Schur functions defined over a noncommutative alphabet. The letters in the alphabet are closely related to Kashiwara's crystal operators of the kth-symmetric tensor product of Uqcsu(n).
