We prove the uniqueness of the simple vertex operator algebra of OZ-type generated by Ising vectors of $\sigma$-type. We also prove that the simplicity can be omitted if the Griess algebra is isomorphic to the Matsuo algebra associated with…

We classify vertex operator algebras (VOAs) of OZ-type generated by Ising vectors of $\sigma$-type. As a consequence of the classification, we also prove that such VOAs are simple, rational, $C_2$-cofinite and unitary, that is, they have…

Let $r \in \BC$ be a complex number, and $d \in \BZ_{\ge 2}$ a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. Ashihara and Miyamoto introduced a vertex operator algebra $\Vam$ of central charge $dr$, whose Griess algebra is isomorphic to the…

This paper studies the twisted representations of vertex operator algebras. Let V be a vertex operator algebra and g an automorphism of V of finite order T. For any m,n in (1/T)Z_+, an A_{g,n}(V)-A_{g,m}(V)-bimodule A_{g,n,m}(V) is…

For vertex operator algebra V_{\sqrt{2}A_l} associated to the even lattice \sqrt{2}A_l which is \sqrt{2} times root lattice of type A_l, it was shown by Dong-Li-Maosn-Norton that the Virasoro vector is a sum of l+1 mutually orthogonal…

In this article, we show that a framed vertex operator algebra V satisfying the conditions: (1) V is holomorphic (i.e., V is the only irreducible V-module); (2) V is of rank 24; and (3) V_1=0; is isomorphic to the moonshine vertex operator…

For a simple vertex operator algebra whose Virasoro element is a sum of commutative Virasoro elements of central charge 1/2, two codes are introduced and studied. It is proved that such vertex operator algebras are rational. For lattice…

The vertex operator algebra structure of a strongly regular holomorphic vertex operator algebra $V$ of central charge $24$ is proved to be uniquely determined by the Lie algebra structure of its weight one space $V_1$ if $V_1$ is a Lie…

If a vertex operator algebra $V=\oplus_{n=0}^{\infty}V_n$ satisfies $\dim V_0=1, V_1=0$, then $V_2$ has a commutative (nonassociative) algebra structure called Griess algebra. One of the typical examples of commutative (nonassociative)…
