Abstract

For a simple vertex operator algebra VV and a finite automorphism group GG of VV then VV is a direct sum of VχV^{\chi} where χ\chi are irreducible character of GG and VχV^{\chi} is the subspace of VV which GG acts according to the character χ.\chi. We prove the following: 1. Each VχV^{\chi} is nonzero. 2. VχV^{\chi} is a tensor product MχVχM_{\chi}\otimes V_{\chi} where MχM_{\chi} is an irreducible GG-module affording χ\chi and VχV_{\chi} is a VGV^G-module. If GG is solvable, VχV_{\chi} is a simple VGV^G-module and MχM_{\chi}\mapsto V_{\chi}isabijectionfromthesetofirreducible is a bijection from the set of irreducible Gmodulestothesetof(inequivalent)simple-modules to the set of (inequivalent) simple V^Gmoduleswhicharecontainedin-modules which are contained in V.$
