We introduce the notion of ``local system of $\Bbb{Z}_{T}$-twisted vertex operators'' on a $\Bbb{Z}_{2}$-graded vector space $M$, generalizing the notion of local system of vertex operators [Li]. First, we prove that any local system of…

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…
