We introduce the notion of a genus and its mass for vertex algebras. For lattice vertex algebras, their genera are the same as those of lattices, which plays an important role in the classification of lattices. We derive a formula relating…

Let $V$ be a simple vertex operator algebra, and $G$ a finite automorphism group of $V$ such that $V^G$ is regular. The definition of entries in $S$-matrix on $V^G$ is discussed, and then is extended. The set of $V^G$-modules can be…

Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra equipped with two commuting finite-order automorphisms $g_1$ and $g_2$, and set $g_3 = g_1 g_2$. For $k = 1, 2, 3$, let $W^k$ be a $g_k$-twisted $V$-module. Assuming that $W^1$ and $W^2$ are…
Odd, positive-definite, integral, unimodular lattices N of rank 24 were classified by Borcherds. There are 273 isometry classes of such lattices. Associated to them are vertex superalgebras $V_N$ of central charge c=24. We show that at…
