We provide a criterion for a vertex operator superalgebra homomorphism from an affine vertex algebra to another vertex superalgebra to be conformal, and an additional criterion that guarantees that this homomorphism is surjective. This…

We present a free field realisation for the vertex operator algebra associated to the genus-two, class $\mathcal{S}$ superconformal field theory of type $\mathfrak{a}_1$. The free field realisation is in the style of recent work by 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…

In this paper, we study a class of simple OZ-type vertex operator algebras $V$ generated by simple Virasoro vectors $\omega^{ij}=\omega^{ji}$, $1\leq i<j\leq n$, $n\geq 3$. We prove that $V$ is uniquely determined by its Griess algebra…

In this article we study and obtain a classification of Ising vectors in vertex operator algebras associated to binary codes and $\sqrt{2}$ times root lattices, where an Ising vector is a conformal vector with central charge 1/2 generating…

In arXiv:1811.01577 the VOAs associated to 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ class-S theories were constructed in addition to a generalization for non-simply laced Lie algebras. However, 6d (2,0) theories have an ADE classification, and therefore class-S…

We consider unitary simple vertex operator algebras whose vertex operators satisfy certain energy bounds and a strong form of locality and call them strongly local. We present a general procedure which associates to every strongly local…

We investigate an alternative approach to the correspondence of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal theories and two-dimensional vertex operator algebras, in the framework of the $\Omega$-deformation of supersymmetric gauge…

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…

In this paper we develop a formalism for working with twisted realizations of vertex and conformal algebras. As an example, we study realizations of conformal algebras by twisted formal power series. The main application of our technique is…

We show how to construct an N=1 superconformal vertex algebra (SCVA) from any Riemannian manifold. When the Riemannian manifold has special holonomy groups, we discuss the extended supersymmetry. When the manifold is complex or K\"{a}hler,…

We solve the problem of how to classify the first-order vertex-algebraic deformations for any grading-restricted vertex algebra $V$ that is freely generated by homogeneous elements of positive weights. We approach by computing the second…

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…

The leitmotif of these Notes is the idea of a vertex operator algebra (VOA) and the relationship between VOAs and elliptic functions and modular forms. This is to some extent analogous to the relationship between a finite group and its…

Let $V$ be a strongly rational vertex operator algebra, and let $g_1, g_2, g_3$ be three commuting finitely ordered automorphisms of $V$ such that $g_1g_2=g_3$ and $g_i^T=1$ for $i=1, 2, 3$ and $T\in \N$. Suppose $M^1$ is a $g_1$-twisted…

In this paper we study the VOAs generated by two Ising vectors whose inner product is 1/2^8 or 3/2^9 and determine they both have unique VOA structures.

The structure of 3C-algebra and 5A-algebra constructed by Lam-Yamada-Yamauchi is studied and the uniqueness of the vertex operator algebra structure of these two algebras is established. We also give the fusion rules for these two algebras.

We consider C-graded vertex algebras, which are vertex algebras V with a C-grading such that V is an admissible V-module generated by 'lowest weight vectors'. We show that such vertex algebras have a 'good' representation theory in the…

We construct orbifolds of holomorphic lattice Vertex Operator Algebras for non-Abelian finite automorphism groups $G$. To this end, we construct twisted modules for automorphisms $g$ together with the projective representation of the…
