On the Virasoro fusion and modular kernels at any irrational central charge

We propose a series representation for the Virasoro fusion and modular kernels at any irrational central charge. Two distinct, yet closely related formulas are needed for the cases c∈ C (-∞,1] and $c <1$. We also conjecture that the formulas have a well-defined limit as the central charge approaches rational values. Our proposal for $c <1$ agrees numerically with the fusion transformation of the four-point spherical conformal blocks, whereas our proposal for c∈ C (-∞,1] agrees numerically with Ponsot and Teschner's integral formula for the fusion kernel. The case of the modular kernel is studied as a special case of the fusion kernel.
