    I am after the relation between Z kZ_k parafermions and SU(2)SU(2)-Chern-Simons/WZW theory.

    The article

    gives the identification

    Z kSU(2) k, Z_k \leftrightarrow SU(2)_k \,,

    i.e. that Z kZ_k parafermions are essentially described by SU(2)SU(2) conformal blocks at level kk.

    But it seems to me that (in their section 2) the authors are neglecting the Chern-Simons level renormalization. Including this would instead seem to give

    Z k+2SU(2) k. Z_{k\color{blue}+2} \leftrightarrow SU(2)_k \,.

    Is this discussed anywhere?

    have added these tow references, provividing an integrable model for N\mathbb{Z}_N parafermion anyons:

    the second of these refers to topologically ordered ground states as the “modern day philosopher’s stone”.

    This strikes me as an interesting association, so I have added mentioning of this phrase at topological order (here)
