Comparison of Extensions of Unitary Vertex Operator Algebras and Conformal Nets
Abstract
Let be one of the following unitary strongly-rational VOAs: unitary WZW models, discrete series W-algebras of type ADE, even lattice VOAs, parafermion VOAs, their tensor products, and their strongly-rational cosets. Let be a (unitary) VOA extension of , described by a Q-system . We prove that is strongly local. Let be the conformal nets associated to in the sense of Carpi-Kawahigashi-Longo-Weiner (CKLW). We prove that is canonically isomorphic to the conformal net extension of defined by the Q-system . We prove that all unitary -modules are strongly integrable in the sense of Carpi-Weiner-Xu (CWX). We show that the CWX -functor from the -category of unitary -modules to the -category of finite-index -modules is naturally isomorphic to -functor defined by .
