Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra and G a finite automorphism group of V such that V^G is regular. It is proved that every irreducible V^G-module occurs in an irreducible g-twisted V-module for some g in G. Moreover, the quantum…
In this note we show that the irreducible twisted modules of a holomorphic, $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra $V$ have $L_0$-weights at least as large as the smallest $L_0$-weight of $V$. Hence, if $V$ is of CFT-type, then the twisted…
