In this paper we construct a class of new irreducible modules over untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebras $\widetilde{\mathfrak{g}}$, generalizing and including both highest weight modules and Whittaker modules. These modules allow us to…

We obtain the fermionic formulas for the characters of (k, r)-admissible configurations in the case of r=2 and r=3. This combinatorial object appears as a label of a basis of certain subspace $W(\Lambda)$ of level-$k$ integrable highest…

We present methods for computing the explicit decomposition of the minimal simple affine $W$-algebra $W_k(\mathfrak g, \theta)$ at a conformal level $k$ as a module for its maximal affine subalgebra $\mathcal V_k(\mathfrak g^{\natural})$. A…

This is an expository introduction to fusion rules for affine Kac-Moody algebras, with major focus on the algorithmic aspects of their computation and the relationship with tensor product decompositions. Many explicit examples are included…

For any complex simple Lie algebra, we generalize primary fileds in the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten conformal field theory with respect to the case of irregular singularities and we construct integral representations of hypergeometric…

Given a topological modular functor $\mathcal{V}$ in the sense of Walker \cite{Walker}, we construct vector bundles over $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$, whose Chern classes define semi-simple cohomological field theories. This construction…

Fusion rules for Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models at fractional level can be defined in two ways, with distinct results. The Verlinde formula yields fusion coefficients that can be negative. These signs cancel in coset fusion rules, however.…

The modular transformation properties of admissible characters of the affine superalgebra sl(2|1;C) at fractional level k=1/u-1, u=2,3,... are presented. All modular invariants for u=2 and u=3 are calculated explicitly and an A-series and…

The logarithmic minimal models are not rational but, in the W-extended picture, they resemble rational conformal field theories. We argue that the W-projective representations are fundamental building blocks in both the boundary and bulk…

Recently a remarkable map between 4-dimensional superconformal field theories and vertex algebras has been constructed \cite{BLLPRV15}. This has lead to new insights in the theory of characters of vertex algebras. In particular it was…

We construct vertex algebraic intertwining operators among certain generalized Verma modules for $\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{C})}$ and calculate the corresponding fusion rules. Additionally, we show that under some conditions these…

We revisit the study of the multiplets of the conformal algebra in any dimension. The theory of highest weight representations is reviewed in the context of the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand category of modules. The Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials…

The most basic structure of chiral conformal field theory (CFT) is the Verlinde ring. Freed-Hopkins-Teleman have expressed the Verlinde ring for the CFT's associated to loop groups, as twisted equivariant K-theory. We build on their work to…

We propose a spectrum for a class of gauged non-compact G/Ad(H) WZNW models, including spectrally flowed images of highest, lowest, and mixed extremal weight modules. These are combined into blocks whose characters, due to the Lorentzian…

For an admissible affine vertex algebra $V_k(\mathfrak{g})$ of type $A$, we describe a new family of relaxed highest weight representations of $V_k(\mathfrak{g})$. They are simple quotients of representations of the affine Kac-Moody algebra…

For the affine Lie algebra $C_2^{(1)}$ we study non-principal and non-coprincipal admissible modules of integer level and their quantum Hamiltonian reduction, and show that they have $\Gamma_0(2)$-modular invariance.

We generalize Feigin and Miwa's construction of extended vertex operator (super)algebras $A_{k}(sl(2))$ for other types of simple Lie algebras. For all the constructed extended vertex operator (super)algebras, irreducible modules are…
