DESCRIPTION:Co-author: David Evans (Cardiff University)<br><br>I will desc
 ribe the construction of certain preprojective algebras and their generali
 sations arising from WZW models in Conformal Field Theory. For the case of
  SU(2)\, these algebras are the preprojective algebras of ADE type. More g
 enerally\, these algebras are&nbsp\;Frobenius algebras\, and their Nakayam
 a automorphism measures how far away the algebra&nbsp\;is from being symme
 tric. I will describe how the Nakayama automorphism arises from this const
 ruction\, and&nbsp\;will describe the construction in the SO(3) case.<br>
