Boundary conformal field theory is concerned with a class of 2D quantum field theories, which display a rich mathematical structure and have many applications, ranging from string theory to condensed-matter physics. This comprehensive introduction to the topic reaches from theoretical foundations to recent developments, with an emphasis on the algebraic treatment of string backgrounds.
