For vertex operator algebra V_{\sqrt{2}A_l} associated to the even lattice \sqrt{2}A_l which is \sqrt{2} times root lattice of type A_l, it was shown by Dong-Li-Maosn-Norton that the Virasoro vector is a sum of l+1 mutually orthogonal…

We construct bundles of modules of vertex operator algebras, and prove the rigidity and vanishing theorem for the Dirac operator on loop space twisted by such bundles. This result generalizes many previous results.

Let $V$ be a $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra without nonzero elements of negative weights. We prove the conjecture that the spaces spanned by analytic extensions of pseudo-$q$-traces ($q=e^{2\pi i\tau}$) shifted by $-\frac{c}{24}$ of…

Ramanujan made many beautiful and elegant discoveries in his short life of 32 years, and one of them that has attracted the attention of several mathematicians over the years is his intriguing formula for $\zeta(2n+1)$. To be sure,…

In this article, we show that a framed vertex operator algebra V satisfying the conditions: (1) V is holomorphic (i.e., V is the only irreducible V-module); (2) V is of rank 24; and (3) V_1=0; is isomorphic to the moonshine vertex operator…

Let $G$ be a rank $n$ additive subgroup of $\bC$ and $\Vir[G]$ the corresponding Virasoro algebra of rank $n$. In the present paper, irreducible weight modules with finite dimensional weight spaces over $\Vir[G]$ are completely determined.…

In the references [HL1]--[HL5] and [H1], a theory of tensor products of modules for a vertex operator algebra is being developed. To use this theory, one first has to verify that the vertex operator algebra satisfies certain conditions. We…

We study irreducible representations for the Lie algebra of vector fields on a 2-dimensional torus constructed using the generalized Verma modules. We show that for a certain choice of parameters these representations remain irreducible…

On page 206 in his lost notebook, Ramanujan recorded an incomplete septic theta function identity. Motivated by the completion of this identity by the second author, we offer cubic and quintic analogues. Using the theory generated by these…

We prove several Ramanujan-type congruences modulo powers of $5$ for partition $k$-tuples with $5$-cores, for $k=2, 3, 4$. We also prove some new infinite families of congruences modulo powers of primes for $k$-tuples with $p$-cores, where…

In this paper, we obtain a class of Virasoro modules by taking tensor products of the irreducible Virasoro modules $\Omega(\lambda,\alpha,h)$ and $\Omega(\mu, b)$ with irreducible highest weight modules $V(\theta,h)$ or with irreducible…

We build solutions in $\mathbb{Z}[i]$ of $A^{5}+B^{5}=C^{5}\pm 1$ based on a method developed by Michael D. Hirschhorn in his article "An Amazing Identity of Ramanujan", from Mathematics Magazine, Vol. 68, No3 (June 1995).

Inspired by a famous formula of Ramanujan for odd zeta values, we prove an analogous formula involving the Hurwitz zeta function. We introduce a new integral kernel related to the Hurwitz zeta function, generalizing the integral kernel…

In this paper we prove theorems related to the Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ (type $_3F_2$) and to the Ramanujan-like series, discovered by the author, for $1/\pi^2$ (type $_5F_4$). Our developments for the cases $_3 F_2$ and $_5 F_4$…

In his deathbed letter to Hardy, Ramanujan gave a vague definition of a mock modular function: at each root of unity its asymptotics matches the one of a modular form, though a choice of the modular function depends on the root of unity.…

We generalise Euler's partition theorem involving odd parts and different parts for all moduli and provide new companions to Rogers-Ramanujan- Andrews-Gordon identities related to this theorem.

In this article we prove that for all primes $p\not=2,3$, the Ramanujan vector field has an invariant algebraic curve and then we give a moduli space interpretation of this curve in terms of Cartier operator acting on the de Rham cohomology…

Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra and G a finite automorphism group. We give a construction of intertwining operators for irreducible V^G-modules which occur as submodules of irreducible V-modules by using intertwining operators for…

The goal of this paper is to study the representation theory of a classical infinite-dimensional Lie algebra - the Lie algebra of vector fields on an N-dimensional torus for N > 1. The case N=1 gives a famous Virasoro algebra (or its…

Starting with Ramanujan's famous taxicab problem, we can study the solvability of the equations $p^n+q^n=r^n+s^n$ and, more generally, $p_1^{k_1}+\dots+p_m^{k_m}=0$ among polynomials.
