Abstract

We compute the modular transformation formula of the characters for a certain family of (finitely or uncountably many) simple modules over the simple N=2\mathcal{N}=2 vertex operator superalgebra of central charge cp,p=3(12pp),c_{p,p'}=3\left(1-\frac{2p'}{p}\right), where (p,p)(p,p') is a pair of coprime positive integers such that p2p\geq2. When p=1p'=1, the formula coincides with that of the N=2\mathcal{N}=2 unitary minimal series found by F. Ravanini and S.-K. Yang. In addition, we study the properties of the corresponding "modular SS-matrix", which is no longer a matrix if p2p'\geq2.
