We prove a general mirror duality theorem for a subalgebra $U$ of a simple conformal vertex algebra $A$ and its commutant $V=\mathrm{Com}_A(U)$. Specifically, we assume that $A\cong\bigoplus_{i\in I} U_i\otimes V_i$ as a $U\otimes…

The Lie algebra of vector fields on $S^1$ integrates to the Lie group of diffeomorphisms of $S^1$. It is well known since the work of Segal and Neretin that there is no Lie group whose Lie algebra is the complexification of vector fields on…
A notion of generalized highest weight modules over the high rank Virasoro algebras is introduced, and a theorem, which was originally given as a conjecture by Kac over the Virasoro algebra, is generalized. Mainly, we prove that a simple…
