Conformal blocks, Verlinde formula and diagram automorphisms
  The Verlinde formula computes the dimension of conformal blocks associated to simple Lie algebras and stable pointed curves. If a simply-laced simple Lie algebra admits a nontrivial diagram automorphism, then this automorphism acts on the space of conformal blocks naturally. We prove an analogue of Verlinde formula for the trace of the diagram automorphism on the space of conformal blocks. Along the way, we get an analogue of Kac-Walton formula for the trace of the diagram automorphism. We also get a twining type formula between the conformal blocks for the pair $(sl(2n+1),sp(2n))$.
