Abstract
In the coset construction, the admissible representations of Kaö-Moody algebras at fractional level give rise to nonunitary conformal field theories. We simplify the description (due to Kač and Wakimoto) of the possible highest weights of admissible representations. For every subgroup of the centre of a finite Lie algebra, we find an infinite sequence of modular invariant combinations of characters of admissible representations. Products of our invariants provide a large class of partition functions (and therefore the spectra) of nonunitary coset models. Under an assumption (proved valid for su(2) and su(3)) we give a formula for the fusion rules of untwisted affine algebras at fractional level, in terms of those at integer level and the affine outer automorphisms. We also find a more general formula expressing them in terms of the affine Weyl group and integer-level fusion rules. These formulae determine the fusion rules for nonunitary coset models. Finally, a suggestive linear relation is found between the modular 5 matrices for the fractional level algebras and those for the corresponding (nonunitary) WN minimal models.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
