Abstract
Quasi-primary fields with dimensions that differ at most by O(1/N) and whose other quantum numbers are all equal, are called degenerate. Mul tiplets of such fields are produced by a chain of fusion processes. Fo rcing the fusion to run through different intermediate states leads to matrices of fusion and anomalous dimension amplitudes whose simultane ous diagonalization allows to resolve the degeneracy.
