In this article, we describe some maximal $3$-local subgroups of the Monster simple group using vertex operator algebras (VOA). We first study the holomorphic vertex operator algebra obtained by applying the orbifold construction to the…

We define an automorphism of VOA of order 3 by using a sub VOA isomorphic to a direct sum of 3-state Potts models $L(\ff,0)$ and an its module $L(\ff,3)$. This automorphism is a 3A element of the monster simple group if $V$ is the moonshine…

We study McKay's observation on the Monster simple group, which relates the 2A-involutions of the Monster simple group to the extended E_8 diagram, using the theory of vertex operator algebras (VOAs). We first consider the sublattices L of…

In this article, we study module categries of simple current extensions of vertex operator algebras. Under certain assumptions, we show that every module for a rational vertex operator algebra be lifted to a twisted module for an extended…

We give a new construction of the moonshine VOA V^{\natural} over the real number field. We proved that V^{\natural} has a positive definite invariant bilinear form and its full automorphism group is the Monster simple group. We also…

We investigate self-dual vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and super algebras (SVOAs). Using the genus one correlation functions, it is shown that self-dual SVOAs exist only for half-integral central charges. It is described how self-dual…

We consider how a vertex operator algebra can be extended to an abelian intertwining algebra by a family of weak twisted modules which are {\em simple currents} associated with semisimple weight one primary vectors. In the case that the…

In this paper, we give decompositions of the moonshine module $V^{\natural}$ with respect to subVOAs associated to extremal Type II codes over $Z_{2k}$ for an integer $k\ge2$. Those subVOAs are isomorphic to the tensor product of 24 copies…

Given a collection of modules of a vertex algebra parametrized by an abelian group, together with one dimensional spaces of composable intertwining operators, we assign a canonical element of the cohomology of an Eilenberg-Mac Lane space.…

We discuss the classification of strongly regular vertex operator algebras (VOAs) with exactly three simple modules whose character vector satisfies a monic modular linear differential equation with irreducible monodromy. Our Main Theorem…

In this article we study a VOA with two Miyamoto involutions generating $S_3$. In \cite{M3}, Miyamoto showed that a VOA generated by two conformal vectors whose Miyamoto involutions generate an automorphism group isomorphic to $S_3$ is…

This paper is a continuation of our paper math.QA/0403010 at which several coset subalgebras of the lattice VOA $V_{\sqrt{2}E_8}$ were constructed and the relationship between such algebras with the famous McKay observation on the extended…

We construct a direct sum completion $\mathcal{C}_{\oplus}$ of a given braided monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$ which allows for the rigorous treatment of infinite order simple current extensions of vertex operator algebras as seen in…

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…

We describe the automorphism groups of all holomorphic vertex operator algebras of central charge $24$ with non-trivial weight one Lie algebras by using their constructions as simple current extensions. We also confirm a conjecture of G.…

For certain vertex operator algebras (e.g., lattice type) and given finite group of automorphisms, we prove existence of a positive definite integral form invariant under the group. Applications include an integral form in the Moonshine VOA…

It is shown that the automorphism group of the shorter Moonshine module constructed in my Ph.D. thesis (also called Baby Monster vertex operator superalgebra) is the direct product of the finite simple group known as the Baby Monster and…

In this article we prove that the full automorphism group of the baby-monster vertex operator superalgebra constructed by Hoehn is isomorphic to 2xB, where B is the baby-monster sporadic finite simple group and determine irreducible modules…

We use uniqueness of a VOA (vertex operator algebra) extension of $(V_{EE_8}^+)^3$ to a Moonshine type VOA to give a new existence proof of a finite simple group of Monster type. The proof is relatively direct. Our methods depend on VOA…

Let V be a simple VOA and consider a representation category of V that is a vertex tensor category in the sense of Huang-Lepowsky. In particular, this category is a braided tensor category. Let J be an object in this category that is a…
