For a simple, self-dual, strong CFT-type vertex operator algebra (VOA) of central charge $c$, we describe the Virasoro $n$-point correlation function on a genus $g$ marked Riemann surface in the Schottky uniformisation. We show that this…

CFTs are naturally defined on Riemann surfaces. The rational ones can be solved using methods from algebraic geometry. One particular feature is the covariance of the partition function under the mapping class group. In genus $g=1$, this…

The study of Riemann surfaces with parametrized boundary components was initiated in conformal field theory (CFT). Motivated by general principles from Teichmueller theory, and applications to the construction of CFT from vertex operator…

One of the basic geometric objects in conformal field theory (CFT) is the the moduli space of Riemann surfaces whose $n$ boundaries are ''rigged'' with analytic parametrizations. The fundamental operation is the sewing of such surfaces…

The partition function of rational conformal field theories (CFTs) on Riemann surfaces is expected to satisfy ODEs of Gauss-Manin type. We investigate the case of hyperelliptic surfaces and derive the ODE system for the $(2,5)$ minimal…

We develop a recursive approach to computing Neveu-Schwarz conformal blocks associated with n-punctured Riemann surfaces. This work generalizes the results of [1] obtained recently for the Virasoro algebra. The method is based on the…

In the $(2,5)$ minimal model, the partition function for genus $g=2$ Riemann surfaces is given by a $5$-tuple of functions with appropriate transformation under the mapping class group. These functions generalise the two Rogers-Ramanujan…

We describe some results on moduli space of logarithmic connections equipped with framings on a $n$-pointed compact Riemann surface.

Let $(X,x_0)$ be any one--pointed compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\geq 3$. Fix two mutually coprime integers $r>1$ and $d$. Let ${\mathcal M}_X$ denote the moduli space parametrizing all logarithmic…

Projective structures on topological surfaces support the structure of 2d CFTs with a degree of technical simplification. We propose a complex analytic space $\mathcal{P}_g$ biholomorphic to $T^*_{(1,0)} \mathcal{M}_g$ as a candidate moduli…

We give upper bounds of the numbers of holomorphic sections of Veech holomorphic families of Riemann surfaces. The numbers depend only on the topological types of base Riemann surfaces and fibers. We also show a relation between types of…

We construct the foliation of aspace associated to correlation functions of vertex operator algebras on considered on Riemann surfaces. We prove that the computation of general genus $g$ correlation functions determines a foliation on the…

The goal of this paper is to develop some aspects of the deformation theory of piecewise flat structures on surfaces and use this theory to construct new geometric structures on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces.

It is a consequence of the Jacobi Inversion Theorem that a line bundle over a Riemann surface M of genus g has a meromorphic section having at most g poles, or equivalently, the divisor class of a divisor D over M contains a divisor having…

Consider, in the moduli space of Riemann surfaces of a fixed genus, the subset of surfaces with non-trivial automorphisms. Of special interest are the numerous subsets of surfaces admitting an action of a given finite group, $G$, acting…

Let $\mathcal{M}_{g,\epsilon}$ be the $\epsilon$-thick part of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_g$ of closed genus $g$ surfaces. In this article, we show that the number of balls of radius $r$ needed to cover $\mathcal{M}_{g,\epsilon}$ is…

These are notes on the theory of super Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces, aiming to collect results that are useful for a better understanding of superstring perturbation theory in the RNS formalism.
