Let $A$ be a $K$-subalgebra of the polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$ of dimension $d$, generated by finitely many monomials of degree $r$. Then the Gauss algebra $\GG(A)$ of $A$ is generated by monomials of degree $(r-1)d$ in $S$. We…

Attached to a vector space V is a vertex algebra S(V) known as the beta-gamma system or algebra of chiral differential operators on V. It is analogous to the Weyl algebra D(V), and is related to D(V) via the Zhu functor. If G is a connected…

Galilean conformal algebra (GCA) is an Inonu-Wigner (IW) contraction of a conformal algebra, while Newton-Hooke string algebra is an IW contraction of an AdS algebra which is the isometry of an AdS space. It is shown that the GCA is a…

This article develops new techniques for understanding the relationship between the three different mathematical formulations of two-dimensional chiral conformal field theory: conformal nets (axiomatizing local observables), vertex operator…

Let $N_{k} (\g)$ be a vertex operator algebra (VOA) associated to the generalized Verma module for affine Lie algebra of type $A_{\ell -1} ^{(1)}$ or $C_{\ell} ^{(1)}$. We construct a family of ideals $J_{m,n} (\g)$ in $N_{k} (\g)$, and a…

We study the $S_3$-orbifold of a rank three Heisenberg vertex algebras in terms of generators and relations. By using invariant theory we prove that the orbifold algebra has a minimal strongly generating set of vectors whose conformal…

Assuming regularity of the fixed subalgebra, any action of a finite group $G$ on a holomorphic VOA $V$ determines a gauge anomaly $\alpha \in \mathrm{H}^3(G; \boldsymbol{\mu})$, where $\boldsymbol{\mu} \subset \mathbb{C}^\times$ is the…

We study a vertex operator algebra containing a tensor product of Ising models. It is a direct sum of code vertex operator algebra and its irreducible modules. Therefore, we classify all irreducible modules of code vertex operator algebras…

The superintegrability, wavefunctions and overlap coefficients of the Dunkl oscillator model in the plane were considered in the first part. Here finite-dimensional representations of the symmetry algebra of the system, called the…

The SW(3/2,3/2,2) superconformal algebra is a W algebra with two free parameters. It consists of 3 superconformal currents of spins 3/2, 3/2 and 2. The algebra is proved to be the symmetry algebra of the coset (su(2)+su(2)+su(2))/su(2). At…

Perturbations of $WD_n$ and $W_3$ conformal theories which generalize the $(1,2)$ perturbations of conformal minimal models are shown to be integrable by counting argument. $A_{2n-1,q}^{(2)}$ and $D_{4,q}^ {(3)}$ symmetries of corresponding…

A new N=4 superconformal algebra (SCA) is presented. Its internal affine Lie algebra is based on the seven-dimensional Lie algebra su(2)\oplus g, where g should be identified with a four-dimensional non-reductive Lie algebra. Thus, it is…

The unique off-shell fermionic gauge invariance of a vector-spinor field theory is found, and the invariant action is derived. The latter is Weyl invariant in any dimension in the massless limit, and it coincides with the singular point of…

We show that the characters of $\mathfrak{sl}_r$ versions of the $(1,p)$ singlet and the $(1,p)$ triplet VOAs arise as limits of appropriately coloured $\mathfrak{sl}_r$ Jones invariants of certain torus links.

We study a special class of holomorphic vertex operator algebras (VOAs) that we call \emph{balanced}.\ For a balanced, holomorphic VOA $V=\mathbb{C}\mathbf{1}\oplus V_1\oplus\dots$ with $c=32$ or $40$ we show that the Virasoro vectors of…
