We study cohomology groups of the Lie algebra of vector fields on the complex line, $W_1$, with values in the tensor fields in several variables. From a generalization by Scheja of the second Riemann (Hartogs) continuation theorem, we…

Multiple zeta values arise as special values of polylogarithms defined on Riemann surfaces of various genera. Building on the vast knowledge for classical and elliptic multiple zeta values, we explore a canonical extension of the formalism…

We continue the study of the gl(1|1) Wess-Zumino-Witten model. The Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations for the one, two, three and four point functions are analyzed, for vertex operators corresponding to typical and projective representations.…

Let $V$ be one of the following unitary strongly-rational VOAs: unitary WZW models, discrete series W-algebras of type ADE, even lattice VOAs, parafermion VOAs, their tensor products, and their strongly-rational cosets. Let $U$ be a…

We consider the extension of the Heisenberg vertex operator algebra by all its irreducible modules. We give an elementary construction for the intertwining vertex operators and show that they satisfy a complex parametrized generalized…

The representation theory of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras has grown tremendously since their independent introduction by Robert V. Moody and Victor G. Kac in 1968. Inspired by mathematical structures found by theoretical physicists, and by…

We build a bridge between two algebraic structures in SCFT: a VOA in the Schur sector of 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories and an associative algebra in the Higgs sector of 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$. The natural setting is a 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFT…

Within the framework of the discrete Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten theory we analyze the structure of vertex operators on a lattice. In particular, the lattice analogues of operator product expansions and braid relations are discussed. As the…

We construct a cubic cut-and-join operator description for the partition function of the Chekhov-Eynard-Orantin topological recursion for a local spectral curve with simple ramification points. In particular, this class contains partition…

We investigate the physical interpretation of the Riemann zeta function as a FZZT brane partition function associated with a matrix/gravity correspondence. The Hilbert-Polya operator in this interpretation is the master matrix of the large…

Using the Zhu algebra for a certain category of $\mathbb{C}$-graded vertex algebras $V$, we prove that if $V$ is finitely $\Omega$-generated and satisfies suitable grading conditions, then $V$ is rational, i.e. has semi-simple…

We study the Higgs branch and associated vertex operator algebra (VOA) of 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) from the geometric engineering of IIB superstring on canonical threefold singularities. For terminal…

We give a differentially closed description of the uniformizing representation to the analytical apparatus on Riemann surfaces and orbifolds of finite analytic type. Apart from well-known automorphic functions and Abelian differentials it…

The purpose of this note is to demonstrate the advantages of Y.-Z.~Huang's definition of the Zhu algebra (Comm.\ Contemp.\ Math., 7 (2005), no.~5, 649--706) for an arbitrary vertex algebra, not necessarily equipped with a Hamiltonian…

We construct vertex operator representations for the full (N+1)-toroidal Lie algebra g. We associate with g a toroidal vertex operator algebra, which is a tensor product of an affine VOA, a sub-VOA of a hyperbolic lattice VOA, affine sl(N)…

We formulate two-dimensional $N=(2,2)$ supersymmetric conformal field theories in terms of unitary full vertex operator superalgebras and develop their cohomology theory. Cohomology rings, Hodge numbers, and the Witten index of a unitary…

This paper is part of an ongoing series of works on the study of foliations on algebraic varieties via derived algebraic geometry. We focus here on the specific case of globally defined vector fields and the global behaviour of their…

For a vertex operator algebra $V$ with conformal vector $\omega$, we consider a class of vertex operator subalgebras and their conformal vectors. They are called semi-conformal vertex operator subalgebras and semi-conformal vectors of…

We study theta functions of a Riemann surface of genus g from the view point of tau function of a hierarchy of soliton equations. We study two kinds of series expansions. One is the Taylor expansion at any point of the theta divisor. We…
