They are dimension tables in a star schema data mart that adhere to a common structure, and therefore allow queries to be executed across star schemas. For example, the Calendar dimension is commonly needed in most data marts. By making this Calendar dimension adhere to a single structure, regardless of what data mart it is used in your organization, you can query by date/time from one data mart to another to another.

Conformed dimentions are dimensions which are common to the cubes.(cubes are the schemas contains facts and dimension tables) 
 
Consider Cube-1 contains F1,D1,D2,D3 and Cube-2 contains F2,D1,D2,D4 are the Facts and Dimensions  
here D1,D2 are the Conformed Dimensions

A conformed dimension is a set of data attributes that have been physically
implemented in multiple database tables using the same structure, attributes,
domain values, definitions and concepts in each implementation.

Unlike in operational systems where data redundancy is normally avoided, data
replication is expected in the Data Warehouse world. To provide fast access and
intuitive "drill down" capabilities of data originating from multiple
operational systems, it is often necessary to replicate dimensional data in Data
Warehouses and in Data Marts.

Un-conformed dimensions imply the existence of logical and/or physical
inconsistencies that should be avoided.
