The Conformal spin and statistics theorem

We prove the equality between the statistics phase and the conformal univalence for a superselection sector with finite index in Conformal Quantum Field Theory on

S^1

. A relevant point is the description of the PCT symmetry and the construction of the global conjugate charge.
