We investigate vertex operator algebras $L(k,0)$ associated with modular-invariant representations for an affine Lie algebra $A_1 ^{(1)}$ , where k is 'admissible' rational number. We show that VOA $L(k,0)$ is rational in the category $\cal…

Lie conformal algebras appear in the theory of vertex algebras. Their relation is similar to that of Lie algebras and their universal enveloping algebras. Associative conformal algebras play a role in conformal representation theory. We…

Representations of vertex operator algebras $V$ (VOAs) have numerous applications, including the construction of sheaves of conformal blocks on moduli spaces of curves. For a $V$-module $W = \oplus W_d$, a sequence of associative algebras…

Let $V$ be a vertex operator subalgebra of $U$. Assume that $U$, $V$, and its commutant $V^c$ in $U$ are CFT-type, self-dual, and regular VOAs. Assume also that the double commutant $V^{cc}$ equals $V$. We prove that any intertwining…
