Abstract

Let be a compact, simple, simply connected Lie group. A theorem of Freed-Hopkins-Teleman identifies the level fusion ring of with the twisted equivariant -homology at level , where is the dual Coxeter number of . In this paper, we will review this result using the language of Dixmier-Douady bundles. We show that the additive generators of the group are obtained as -homology push-forwards of the fundamental classes of pre-quantized conjugacy classes in .
