Hopf-algebra duals of logarithmic conformal field models.

Abstract: As a nonsemisimple generalization of the Kazhdan--Lusztig duality, much of the structure of logarithmic models of two-dimensional conformal field theory can be alternatively derived from their ``dual'' Hopf algebras. I will discuss the role of factorizable ribbon Hopf algebras and an important class of braided Hopf algebras in this context.
