We extend the modular invariance property of the trace functions of vertex operator algebra on the set of irreducible modules (Zhu's theory) to the case of trace functions of intertwining operators.
In this paper, we use the twisted regular representation theory of vertex operator algebras to construct bimodules over twisted Zhu algebras, extending Haisheng Li's work in untwisted scenarios. Moreover, a conjecture of Dong and Jiang on…
We establish an isomorphism between the space of logarithmic intertwining operators among suitable generalized modules for a vertex operator algebra and the space of homomorphisms between suitable modules for a generalization of Zhu's…
The purpose of this paper is to generalize Zhu's theorem about characters of modules over a vertex operator algebra graded by integer conformal weights, to the setting of a vertex operator superalgebra graded by rational conformal weights.…
The goal of the present paper is to provide a mathematically rigorous foundation to certain aspects of rational orbifold conformal field theory, in other words the theory of rational vertex operator algebras and their automorphisms. Under a…
We summarize interactions between vertex operator algebras and number theory through the lens of Zhu theory. The paper begins by recalling basic facts on vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and modular forms, and then explains Zhu's theorem on…
By a pointed vertex operator algebra (VOA) we mean one whose modules are all simple currents (i.e. invertible), e.g. lattice VOAs. This paper systematically explores the interplay between their orbifolds and tensor category theory. We begin…
In his landmark paper, Zhu associated two associative algebras to a vertex operator algebra: what are now called Zhu's algebra and the C_2-algebra. The former has a nice interpretation in terms of the representation theory of the VOA, while…
We discuss some basic problems and conjectures in a program to construct general orbifold conformal field theories using the representation theory of vertex operator algebras. We first review a program to construct conformal field theories.…
We study the trace functions in orbiford theory for Z-graded vertex operator superalgebras and obtain a modular invariance result. More precisely, let V be a C_2-cofinite Z-graded vertex operator superalgebra and G a finite automorphism…
In this paper we show that for a large natural class of vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and their modules, the Zhu algebras and bimodules (and their $g$-twisted analogs) are Noetherian. These carry important information about the…
We study the general twisted intertwining operators (intertwining operators among twisted modules) for a vertex operator algebra $V$. We give the skew-symmetry and contragredient isomorphisms between spaces of twisted intertwining operators…
We introduce theta-functions of VOA-modules and show that the space spanned by them has a modular invariance property.
We generalize the notion of an intertwining operator to N-graded weak modules over a vertex operator algebra and study their properties. We show a formula for the dimensions of these intertwining operators in terms of modules over the Zhu…
We apply the factorization and vector bundle propositionerty of the sheaves of conformal blocks on $\overline{\mathscr{M}}_{g,n}$. defined by vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and give geometric proofs of essential results in the…
This paper is to study what we call twisted regular representations for vertex operator algebras. Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra, let $\sigma_1,\sigma_2$ be commuting finite-order automorphisms of $V$ and let…
This is the first of two papers in which we study the modular invariance of pseudotraces of logarithmic intertwining operators. We construct and study genus-one correlation functions for logarithmic intertwining operators among generalized…

We introduce intertwining operators among twisted modules or twisted intertwining operators associated to not-necessarily-commuting automorphisms of a vertex operator algebra. Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra and let $g_{1}$, $g_{2}$…
Let $V_1 \otimes V_2$ be a tensor product of VOAs. Using Zhu theory we discuss the theory of representations of V (associative algebra, modules and fusion rules). We prove that this theory is more or less the same as representation theory…
