چکیده
|
We study a u(n) gauged matrix quantum mechanics which, in the large n limit, is closely related to the chiral wzw conformal field theory. this manifests itself in two ways. first, we construct the left-moving kac-moody algebra from matrix degrees of freedom. secondly, we compute the partition function of the matrix model in terms of schur and kostka polynomials and show that, in the large n limit, it coincides with the partition function of the wzw model. this same matrix model was recently shown to describe non-abelian quantum hall states and the relationship to the wzw model can be understood in this framework.
