Nonassociative commutative algebras $A$ generated by idempotents $e$ whose adjoint operators ${\rm ad}_e\colon A \rightarrow A$, given by $x \mapsto xe$, are diagonalizable and have few eigenvalues are of recent interest. When certain…
Axial algebras are non-associative algebras generated by semisimple idempotents, known as axes, that all obey a fusion rule. Axial algebras were introduced by Hall, Rehren and Shpectorov as a generalisation of the axioms of Majorana theory,…
We introduce axial representations and modules over axial algebras as new tools to study axial algebras. All known interesting examples of axial algebras fall into this setting, in particular the Griess algebra whose automorphism group is…
An axial algebra over the field $\mathbb F$ is a commutative algebra generated by idempotents whose adjoint action has multiplicity-free minimal polynomial. For semisimple associative algebras this leads to sums of copies of $\mathbb F$.…
Axial algebras are a class of commutative non-associative algebras which have a natural group of automorphisms, called the Miyamoto group. The motivating example is the Griess algebra which has the Monster sporadic simple group as its…
We develop a new method for obtaining branching rules for affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras at negative integer levels. This method uses fusion rules for vertex operator algebras of affine type. We prove that an infinite family of ordinary…
Axial algebras are a class of commutative non-associative algebras generated by idempotents, called axes, with adjoint action semi-simple and satisfying a prescribed fusion law. Axial algebras were introduced by Hall, Rehren and Shpectorov…
We investigate the class of root systems R obtained by extending an irreducible root system by a torsion-free group G. In this context there is a Weyl group W and a group U with the presentation by conjugation. We show under additional…
The root systems appearing in the theory of Lie superalgebras and Nichols algebras admit a large symmetry extending properly the one coming from the Weyl group. Based on this observation we set up a general framework in which the symmetry…
This paper introduces and systematically studies Weyl-type, Witt-type, and non-associative algebras defined over expolynomial rings -- commutative rings generated by exponential functions $e^{\alpha x}$, exponentials of exponentials $e^{\pm…
The main result is that the category of ordinary modules of an affine vertex operator algebra of a simply laced Lie algebra at admissible level is rigid and thus a braided fusion category. If the level satisfies a certain coprime property…
We extend the theory of Matsuo algebras, which are certain non-associative algebras related to 3-transposition groups, to characteristic 2. Instead of idempotent elements associated to points in the corresponding Fischer space, our algebras…
After giving some definitions for vertex operator SUPERalgebras and their modules, we construct an associative algebra corresponding to any vertex operator superalgebra, such that the representations of the vertex operator algebra are in…
The initial classification of fusion rules have shown that rational conformal field theory is very limited. In this paper we study the fusion rules of extend ed current algebras. Explicit formulas are given for the S matrix and the fusion…
The problem of interpreting a set of ${\cal W}$-algebra constraints constructed in terms of an arbitrarily twisted scalar field as the recursion relations of a topological theory is addressed. In this picture, the conventional models of…
We identify the algebra of matrix elements of big projective modules in category O with the regular functions on the big Bruhat cell of G. Analogous extensions of the regular representations of the affine Lie and Virasoro algebras yield…
We use the author's combinatorial theory of full heaps (defined in math.QA/0605768) to categorify the action of a large class of Weyl groups on their root systems, and thus to give an elementary and uniform construction of a family of…
We prove that the space of intertwining operators associated with certain admissible modules over vertex operator algebras is isomorphic to a quotient of the vector space of conformal blocks on a three-pointed rational curve defined by the…
We discuss some applications of fusion rules and intertwining operators in the representation theory of cyclic orbifolds of the triplet vertex operator algebra. We prove that the classification of irreducible modules for the orbifold vertex…
In this paper we generalize cellular algebras by allowing different partial orderings relative to fixed idempotents. For these relative cellular algebras we classify and construct simple modules, and we obtain other characterizations in…
