We study the two-dimensional critical Ising model on a M\"obius strip basedon a duality relation between conformally invariant boundary conditions. Byusing a Majorana fermion field theory, we obtain explicit representations ofcrosscap states corresponding to the boundary states. We also discuss theduality structure of the partition functions.Comment: 6 pages, ptptex, to appear in Prog. Theor. Phy
