We describe a number of relationships between properties of the vacuum Verma module of a Virasoro algebra and the automorphism group of certain vertex operator algebras. These groups include the Deligne exceptional series of simple Lie…

Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra and let G be a finite automorphism group of V. In [DY], it was shown that any irreducible V-module is a completely reducible V^G-module where V^G is the G-invariant sub-vertex operator algebra of V.…

Let $V$ be a $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra without nonzero elements of negative weights. We prove the conjecture that the spaces spanned by analytic extensions of pseudo-$q$-traces ($q=e^{2\pi i\tau}$) shifted by $-\frac{c}{24}$ of…

We show interesting relations between extremal partition functions of a family of conformal field theories and dimensions of the irreducible representations of the Fischer-Griess Monster sporadic group. We argue that these relations can be…

In this paper, we study representations of the vertex operator algebra $L(k,0)$ at one-third admissible levels $k= -5/3, -4/3, -2/3$ for the affine algebra of type $G_2^{(1)}$. We first determine singular vectors and then obtain a…

The two pillars of rational conformal field theory and rational vertex operator algebras are modularity of characters on the one hand and its interpretation of modules as objects in a modular tensor category on the other one. Overarching…

$C_2$ cofiniteness and rationality of $V_{L_2}^{S_4}$ are obtained, and irreducible $V_{L_2}^{S_4}$-modules are classified. With the assumption of rationality and $C_2$ cofiniteness, irreducible $V_{L_2}^{A_5}$-modules are determined. Also,…

We show that if $T$ is a simple non-negatively graded regular vertex operator algebra with a nonsingular invariant bilinear form and $\sigma$ is a finite order automorphism of $T$, then the fixed-point vertex operator subalgebra $T^\sigma$…

In this paper we give a trace formula for Hecke operators acting on the cohomology of a Fuchsian group of finite covolume, with coefficients in a module $V$. The proof is based on constructing an operator whose trace on $V$ equals the…

This paper studies the twisted representations of vertex operator algebras. Let V be a vertex operator algebra and g an automorphism of V of finite order T. For any m,n in (1/T)Z_+, an A_{g,n}(V)-A_{g,m}(V)-bimodule A_{g,n,m}(V) is…

We study ternary monomial functions of the form $f(x)=\Tr_n(ax^d)$, where $x\in \Ff_{3^n}$ and $\Tr_n: \Ff_{3^n}\to \Ff_3$ is the absolute trace function. Using a lemma of Hou \cite{hou}, Stickelberger's theorem on Gauss sums, and certain…
