So I have a slight confusion about the meaning of Φ 1,3\Phi_{1,3} is problem 1 of the new homework. Is Φ 1,3\Phi_{1,3} referring to the field whose corresponding state |Φ 1,3|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle satisfies L 0|Φ 1,3=h 1,3|Φ 1,3L_0|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle=h_{1,3}|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle and L n|Φ 1,3=0L_n|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle=0 for all nn bigger than 00?

Correct.

Φ 1,3\Phi_{1,3} is the field and |Φ 1,3|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle the corresponding state, which is a Virasoro primary with a null vector at level 1×3=31\times3=3.

The problem is to find an explicit expression for that null vector (as a linear combination of L 3|Φ 1,3L_{-3}|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle, L 2L 1|Φ 1,3L_{-2}L_{-1}|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle and L 1 3|Φ 1,3L_{-1}^3|\Phi_{1,3}\rangle).
