New constructions in local quantum physics

Abstract

Among several ideas which arose as consequences of modular localization there are two proposals which promise to be important for the classification and construction of QFTs. One is based on the observation that wedge-localized algebras may have particle-like generators with simple properties and the second one uses the structural simplification of wedge algebras in the holographic lightfront projection. Factorizable d = 1+1 models permit us to analyse the interplay between particle-like aspects and chiral field properties of lightfront holography.
