In this article we study and obtain a classification of Ising vectors in vertex operator algebras associated to binary codes and $\sqrt{2}$ times root lattices, where an Ising vector is a conformal vector with central charge 1/2 generating…

In this paper, we introduce and study new classes of sub-vertex operator algebras of the lattice vertex operator algebras (VOAs), which we call the conic, Borel, and parabolic-type subVOAs. These CFT-type VOAs, which are not necessarily…
It is proved that Zhu's algebra for vertex operator algebra associated to a positive-definite even lattice of rank one is a finite-dimensional semiprimitive quotient algebra of certain associative algebra introduced by Smith. Zhu's algebra…
We define new deformable families of vertex operator algebras $\mathfrak{A}[\mathfrak{g}, \Psi, \sigma]$ associated to a large set of S-duality operations in four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory. They are defined as algebras of…
The Heisenberg Oscillator Algebra admits irreducible representations both on the ring $B$ of polynomials in infinitely many indeterminates (the {\em bosonic representation}) and on a graded-by-{\em charge} vector space, the {\em…
A study of the gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models is given focusing on the effect of topologically non-trivial configurations of gauge fields. A correlation function is expressed as an integral over a moduli space of holomorphic bundles with…

Using the technology of harmonic analysis, we derive a crossing equation that acts only on the scalar primary operators of any two-dimensional conformal field theory with $U(1)^c$ symmetry. From this crossing equation, we derive bounds on…
We construct a flat holomorphic line bundle over a connected component of the Hurwitz space of branched coverings of the Riemann sphere. A flat holomorphic connection defining the bundle is described in terms of the invariant Wirtinger…
We study the generalization of the Willmore functional for surfaces in the three-Heisenberg group. Its construction is based on the spectral theory of the Dirac operator coming to the Weierstrass representation of surfaces (see…
We introduce theta-functions of VOA-modules and show that the space spanned by them has a modular invariance property.
Multiparametric families of hypergeometric $\tau$-functions of KP or Toda type serve as generating functions for weighted Hurwitz numbers, providing weighted enumerations of branched covers of the Riemann sphere. A graphical interpretation…
We present a series of new results we obtained recently about the intersection numbers of tautological classes on moduli spaces of curves, including a simple formula of the n-point functions for Witten's $\tau$ classes, an effective…
This is the second paper in a series to study regular representations for vertex operator algebras. In this paper, given a module $W$ for a vertex operator algebra $V$, we construct, out of the dual space $W^{*}$, a family of canonical…
We study several families of vertex operator superalgebras from a jet (super)scheme point of view. We provide new examples of vertex algebras which are "chiralizations" of their Zhu's Poisson algebras $R_V$. Our examples come from affine…
In this paper, we show that $\sigma$-involutions associated to extendable c=4/5 Virasoro vectors generate a 3-transposition group in the automorphism group of a vertex operator algebra (VOA). Several explicit examples related to lattice VOA…
Let $\zeta^*(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{+\infty}(-1)^n/n^s$ and $\tau$ the operator defined on the Frechet space of holomorphic functions in $\{s\in \mathbb C :1/2< Re \, s<1\}$ by $\tau f(s)= f(s-2i\pi/\log 2)$. We show that the Riemann Hypothesis is…
We describe a completely algebraic axiom system for intertwining operators of vertex algebra modules, using algebraic flat connections, thus formulating the concept of a {\em tree algebra}. Using the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, we…
