We study the minimal models associated to $\mathfrak{osp}(1 \vert 2)$, otherwise known as the fractional-level Wess-Zumino-Witten models of $\mathfrak{osp}(1 \vert 2)$. Since these minimal models are extensions of the tensor product of…

We generalize Feigin and Miwa's construction of extended vertex operator (super)algebras $A_{k}(sl(2))$ for other types of simple Lie algebras. For all the constructed extended vertex operator (super)algebras, irreducible modules are…

We give a general criterion for conformal embeddings of vertex operator algebras associated to affine Lie algebras at arbitrary levels. Using that criterion, we construct new conformal embeddings at admissible rational and negative integer…

We find that multiple vertex algebras can arise from a single 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theory (SCFT). The connection is given by the BPS monodromy operator $M$, which is a wall-crossing invariant quantity that captures the…

The minimal model $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ vertex operator superalgebras are the simple quotients of affine vertex operator superalgebras constructed from the affine Lie super algebra $\widehat{\mathfrak{osp}}(1|2)$ at certain rational values…

For a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we use the vertex tensor category theory of Huang and Lepowsky to identify the category of standard modules for the affine Lie algebra $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$ at a fixed level…

We determine when the irreducible modules $L(c_{p, q}, h_{m, n})$ over the simple Virasoro vertex algebras $\operatorname{Vir}_{p, q}$, where $p, q \ge 2$ are relatively prime with $0 < m < p$ and $0 < n < q$, are classically free. It turns…

The Bershadsky-Polyakov algebras are the original examples of nonregular W-algebras, obtained from the affine vertex operator algebras associated with $\mathfrak{sl}_3$ by quantum hamiltonian reduction. In [arXiv:2007.03917], we explored…

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…

We consider exceptional vertex operator algebras for which particular Casimir vectors constructed from the primary vectors of lowest conformal weight are Virasoro descendants of the vacuum. We discuss constraints on these theories that…

This paper consists of two parts: (1) Using a Z[1/2]-form of Virasoro vertex operator algebra L(1/2,0) with central charge 1/2, we obtain a modular vertex operator algebra over any field F of finite characteristic different from 2. We…

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…

We use the newly developed technique of inverse quantum hamiltonian reduction to investigate the representation theory of the simple affine vertex algebra $\mathsf{A}_{2}(\mathsf{u},2)$ associated to $\mathfrak{sl}_{3}$ at level $\mathsf{k}…

We will partially classify spaces of characters of vertex operator algebras $V$ with central charges 8 and 16, such that the spaces of characters is 3-dimensional and the characters forms a basis of the solution space of a third order monic…

The admissible modules for $\hat{sl}_2$ are studied from the point of view of vertex operator algebra. If $l$ is rational such that $l+2={p\over q}$ for some coprime positive integers $p\ge 2$ and $q$, Kac and Wakimoto found finitely many…

Some identities between unitary minimal Virasoro characters at levels 3, 4 and 5 are shown to arise as a consequence of relations between Artin L-functions of different quadratic fields. The definitions and concepts of number theory…

Let $V$ be an $\mathbb{N}$-graded, simple, self-contragredient, $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra. We show that if the $S$-transformation of the character of $V$ is a linear combination of characters of $V$-modules, then the category…

We study the representation theory of non-admissible simple affine vertex algebra $L_{-5/2} (sl(4))$. We determine an explicit formula for the singular vector of conformal weight four in the universal affine vertex algebra $V^{-5/2}…

We discover a large class of simple affine vertex algebras $V_{k} (\mathfrak g)$, associated to basic Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak g$ at non-admissible collapsing levels $k$, having exactly one irreducible $\mathfrak g$-locally finite…

We study the representations of some simple affine vertex algebras at non-admissible level arising from rank one 4D SCFTs. In particular, we classify the irreducible highest weight modules of $L_{-2}(G_2)$ and $L_{-2}(B_3)$. It is known by…
