Abstract

We consider A-series modular invariant Virasoro minimal models on the upper half plane. From Lewellen's sewing constraints a necessary form of the bulk and boundary structure constants is derived. Necessary means that any solution can be brought to the given form by rescaling of the fields. All constants are expressed essentially in terms of fusing (F-) matrix elements and the normalisations are chosen such that they are real and no square roots appear. It is not shown in this paper that the given structure constants solve the sewing constraints, however random numerical tests show no contradiction and agreement of the bulk structure constants with Dotsenko and Fateev. In order to facilitate numerical calculations a recursion relation for the F-matrices is given.
