Based on class-tested notes, this text offers an introduction to
Conformal Field Theory with a special emphasis on computational
techniques of relevance for String Theory. It introduces Conformal
Field Theory at a basic level, Kac-Moody algebras, one-loop
partition functions, Superconformal Field Theories, Gepner Models
and Boundary Conformal Field Theory. Eventually, the concept of
orientifold constructions is explained in detail for the example of
the bosonic string. In providing many detailed CFT calculations,
this book is ideal for students and scientists intending to become
acquainted with CFT techniques relevant for string theory but also
for students and non-specialists from related fields.
