In this exposition, I discuss several developments in the theory of vertex operator algebras, and I include motivation for the definition.
In this paper we study ascending chain conditions in a free Baxter algebra by making use of explicit constructions of free Baxter algebras that were obtained recently. We investigate ascending chain conditions both for ideals and for Baxter…
We investigate the large $N$ limit of permutation orbifolds of vertex operator algebras. To this end, we introduce the notion of nested oligomorphic permutation orbifolds and discuss under which conditions their fixed point VOAs converge.…
We investigate the limit of sequences of vertex algebras. We discuss under what condition the vector space direct limit of such a sequence is again a vertex algebra. We then apply this framework to permutation orbifolds of vertex operator…
For certain vertex operator algebras (e.g., lattice type) and given finite group of automorphisms, we prove existence of a positive definite integral form invariant under the group. Applications include an integral form in the Moonshine VOA…
The mirror extensions for vertex operator algebras are studied. Two explicit examples which are not simple current extensions of some affine vertex operator algebras of type $A$ are given.
Motivated by the notion of extremal vertex operator algebras, we investigate cyclic orbifolds of vertex operator algebras coming from extremal even self-dual lattices in $d=48$ and $d=72$. In this way we construct about one hundred new…
We give a brief survey of recent work on integral forms in vertex operator algebras (VOAs).
We study the properties of shifted vertex operator algebras, which are vertex algebras derived from a given theory by shifting the conformal vector. In this way, we are able to exhibit large numbers of vertex operator algebras which are…
We construct a direct sum completion $\mathcal{C}_{\oplus}$ of a given braided monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$ which allows for the rigorous treatment of infinite order simple current extensions of vertex operator algebras as seen in…
Vertex operator algebras are mathematically rigorous objects corresponding to chiral algebras in conformal field theory. Operads are mathematical devices to describe operations, that is, $n$-ary operations for all $n$ greater than or equal…
We prove an equivalence between the following notions: (i) unitary M\"obius vertex algebras, and (ii) Wightman conformal field theories on the circle (with finite-dimensional conformal weight spaces) satisfying an additional condition that…
We consider how a vertex operator algebra can be extended to an abelian intertwining algebra by a family of weak twisted modules which are {\em simple currents} associated with semisimple weight one primary vectors. In the case that the…
Vertex operator superalgebras are studied and various results on rational Vertex operator superalgebras are obtained. In particular, the vertex operator super subalgebras generated by the weight 1/2 and weight 1 subspaces are determined. It…
We relate extensions of completely unitary VOAs and (commutative) Q-systems. As an application, we show that any unitary extension of a completely unitary VOA is completely unitary.
Let L be a rank one positive definite even lattice. We prove that a vertex operator algebra (VOA) V_L^+ satisfies the C_2 condition. Here, V_L^+ is a fixed point sub-VOA of the VOA V_L associated with the automorphism lifted from the -1…
We give a natural extension of the notion of the contragredient module for a vertex operator algebra. By using this extension we prove that for regular vertex operator algebras, Zhu's $C_{2}$-finiteness condition holds, fusion rules are…
In vertex operator algebra theories, most of the general theorems are proved under the assumptions of rationality and C_2-cofiniteness. In this paper, we obtain several general theorems without the assumption of rationality so that we can…
Certain vertex operator algebras have integral forms (integral spans of bases which are closed under the countable set of products). It is unclear when they (or integral multiples of them) are integral as lattices under the natural bilinear…
In this article, we completely determine the isomorphism classes of lattice vertex operator algebras and the vertex operator subalgebras fixed by a lift of the -1-isometry of the lattice. We also provide similar results for certain even…
