Let $V_1 \otimes V_2$ be a tensor product of VOAs. Using Zhu theory we discuss the theory of representations of V (associative algebra, modules and fusion rules). We prove that this theory is more or less the same as representation theory…

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…

Given a non-semisimple automorphism $\varphi$ of a vertex algebra $V$, the fields in a $\varphi$-twisted $V$-module involve the logarithm of the formal variable, and the action of the Virasoro operator $L_0$ on such module is not…

The leitmotif of these Notes is the idea of a vertex operator algebra (VOA) and the relationship between VOAs and elliptic functions and modular forms. This is to some extent analogous to the relationship between a finite group and its…

Huang, Lepowsky and Zhang have developed a module theory for vertex operator algebras that endows suitably chosen module categories with the structure of braided monoidal categories. Included in the theory is a functor which assigns to…

We prove an associative law of the fusion products $\boxtimes$ of $C_1$-cofinite ${\mathbb N}$-gradable modules for a vertex operator algebra $V$. To be more precise, for $C_1$-cofinite ${\mathbb N}$-gradable $V$-modules $A,B,C$ and their…

In a previous paper we showed how the main theorems characterizing operator algebras and operator modules, fit neatly into the framework of the `noncommutative Shilov boundary', and more particularly via the left multiplier operator algebra…

A vertex algebra is an algebraic counterpart of a two-dimensional conformal field theory. We give a new definition of a vertex algebra which includes chiral algebras as a special case, but allows for fields which are neither meromorphic nor…

Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra and $g=\left(1\ 2\ \cdots k\right)$ be a $k$-cycle which is viewed as an automorphism of the vertex operator algebra $V^{\otimes k}$. It is proved that Dong-Li-Mason's associated associative algebra…

We solve the problem of how to classify the first-order vertex-algebraic deformations for any grading-restricted vertex algebra $V$ that is freely generated by homogeneous elements of positive weights. We approach by computing the second…

Let $V$ be a vertex algebra and $M$ a $V$-module. We define the first and second cohomology of $V$ with coefficients in $M$, and we show that the second cohomology $H^{2}(V, M)$ corresponds bijectively to the set of equivalence classes of…

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…

Let $V$ be a strongly regular vertex operator algebra. For a state $h \in V_1$ satisfying appropriate integrality conditions, we prove that the space spanned by the trace functions Tr$_Mq^{L(0)-c/24}\zeta^{h(0)} ($M$ a $V$-module) is a…

We establish a relationship between Schreiner's matrix regular operator space and Werner's (nonunital) operator system. For a matrix ordered operator space $V$ with complete norm, we show that $V$ is completely isomorphic and complete order…

Let $\mathfrak{g}_m=\mathfrak{sl}(2)\ltimes V(m)$, $m\ge 1$, where $V(m)$ is the irreducible $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$-module of dimension $m+1$ viewed as an abelian Lie algebra. It is known that the isomorphism classes of uniserial…

We study the trace functions in orbiford theory for Z-graded vertex operator superalgebras and obtain a modular invariance result. More precisely, let V be a C_2-cofinite Z-graded vertex operator superalgebra and G a finite automorphism…

In this paper we show that for a large natural class of vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and their modules, the Zhu algebras and bimodules (and their $g$-twisted analogs) are Noetherian. These carry important information about the…

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…

Given a vertex operator algebra V , one can attach a graded Poisson algebra called the C2-algebra R(V). The associate Poisson scheme provides an important invariant for V and has been studied by Arakawa as the associated variety. In this…

We define complexes of vector bundles on products of moduli spaces of framed rank r torsion-free sheaves on the complex projective plane. The top non-vanishing Chern classes of the cohomology of these complexes yield actions of the…
