Minkowskian open/closed conformal field theory possibly without vacuum: the Cardy case

For any conformal net, not necessarily rational, we construct the associated Cardy-type conformal field theory on the Minkowski spacetimes $(\mathbb R/2\pi\mathbb Z)\times\mathbb R$ for closed strings and $[0,\pi]\times\mathbb R$ for open strings within the framework of algebraic quantum field theory.

In addition to verifying some of their basic properties, we prove three forms of Haag duality for multi-double-cones and boundary intervals, interpreted respectively as the Minkowskian versions of modular invariance, the Cardy consistency condition, and the Morita equivalence of boundary field algebras.
