In this article we study a VOA with two Miyamoto involutions generating $S_3$. In \cite{M3}, Miyamoto showed that a VOA generated by two conformal vectors whose Miyamoto involutions generate an automorphism group isomorphic to $S_3$ is…
Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra and $g$ an automorphism of $V$ of finite order $T$. For any $m, n \in(1/T) \mathbb N$, an $A_{g,n}(V)\!-\!A_{g,m}(V)$ bimodule $A_{g,n, m}(V)=V/O_{g,n,m}(V)$ was defined by Dong and Jiang, where…
In 1993 Schellekens proved that the weight-one space $V_1$ of a strongly rational, holomorphic vertex operator algebra $V$ of central charge 24 must be one of 71 Lie algebras. During the following three decades, in a combined effort by many…
Given a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a complex number $\kappa$, let $V^{\kappa}(\mathfrak{g})$ be the associated universal affine vertex algebra. In [GK07], the authors gave a sufficient and necessary…

We formulate the general construction for singular vectors in Verma modules of the affine sl(2|1) superalgebra. We then construct sl(2|1) representations out of the fields of the non-critical N=2 string. This allows us to extend naturally…
We prove an $\text{SL}_2 (\mathbb{Z})$-invariance property of multivariable trace functions on modules for a regular VOA. Applying this result, we provide a proof of the inversion transformation formula for Siegel theta series. As another…
We review 3-transposition groups arising in vertex operator algebra theory. One can construct a commutative algebra called the Matsuo algebra out of a 3-transposition group. Some 3-transposition groups arise as automorphism groups of vertex…

Highest weight modules of the double affine Lie algebra $\widehat{\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}}_{2}$ are studied under a new triangular decomposition. Singular vectors of Verma modules are determined using a similar condition with horizontal…
In this paper, we study the structure and representation of a $6A$-algebra which is a vertex operator algebra generated by two Ising vectors $e,f$ with inner product $\left\langle e,f\right\rangle =\frac{5}{2^{10}}.$ In particular, we prove…
Given a vertex operator algebra $V$, one can construct two associative algebras, the Zhu algebra $A(V)$ and the $C_2$-algebra $R(V)$. This gives rise to two abelian categories $A(V)-\text{Mod}$ and $R(V)-\text{Mod}$, in addition to the…
Let ${\mathscr M}(p)$ $(p=2,3,\ldots)$ be the singlet vertex operator algebra and $\omega$ its conformal vector. We classify the simple weak ${\mathscr M}(p)$-modules with a non-zero element $u$ such that for some integer $s\geq 2$,…
In this paper, we determine all simple restricted modules over the mirror Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra ${\mathfrak{D}}$, and the twisted Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra $\bar\mathfrak{D}$ with nonzero level. As applications, we characterize…

We study the 2D vertex operator algebra (VOA) construction in 4D $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFT) on $S^3 \times S^1$, focusing both on old puzzles as well as new observations. The VOA lives on a two-torus…
