We develop the notion of a (pro-) conformal pseudo operad and apply it to the construction of the basic cohomology complex of a vertex algebra. The paper heavily uses the ideas and constructions of the work of Tamarkin [Tam02]
Structure constants of Operator Algebras for the SL(2) degenerate conformal field theories are calculated.
Let $G$ be a simple complex Lie group with Lie algebra $\mf g$ and let $\af$ be the affine Lie algebra. We use intertwining operators and Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations to construct a family of $\N$-graded vertex operator algebras…
We present a general vertex operator construction based on the Fock space for an affine Lie algebras of type $A$. This construction allows us to give a unified treatment for both the homogeneous and principle realizations of the affine Lie…
The main purpose of this paper is a mathematical construction of a non-perturbative deformation of a two-dimensional conformal field theory. We introduce a notion of a full vertex algebra which formulates a compact two-dimensional conformal…
In this article we show how to construct hierarchies of partial differential equations from the vertex operator representations of toroidal Lie algebras. In the smallest example - rank 2 toroidal cover of $sl_2$ - we obtain an extension of…
We discover a realisation of the affine Lie superalgebra sl(2|1) and of the exceptional affine superalgebra D(2|1;alpha) as vertex operator extensions of two affine sl(2) algebras with dual levels (and an auxiliary level 1 sl(2) algebra).…
The rationality and C_2-cofiniteness of the orbifold vertex operator algebra V_{L_{2}}^{A_{4}} are established and all the irreducible modules are constructed and classified. This is part of classification of rational vertex operator…
We prove an equivalence between the following notions: (i) unitary M\"obius vertex algebras, and (ii) Wightman conformal field theories on the circle (with finite-dimensional conformal weight spaces) satisfying an additional condition that…
In this exposition, I discuss several developments in the theory of vertex operator algebras, and I include motivation for the definition.
The following integrability theorem for vertex operator algebras V satisfying some finiteness conditions(C_2-cofinite and CFT-type) is proved: the vertex operator subalgebra generated by a simple Lie subalgebra {\frak g} of the weight one…
We provide a complete classification of unitary subalgebras of even rank-one lattice vertex operator algebras. As a consequence of the correspondence between vertex operator algebras and conformal nets, we also obtain a complete…
This paper is about the orbifold theory of parafermion vertex operator algebras $K(osp(1|2),k)$ associated to the affine vertex operator superalgebra $L_{\widehat{osp(1|2)}}(k,0)$ with any positive integer $k$. Among the main results, we…
Conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields in conformal field theory. On the other hand, it is an adequate tool for the study of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras satisfying the locality…
For a finitely-generated vertex operator algebra of central charge c, a locally convex topological completion is constructed. We construct on the completion a structure of an algebra over the operad of the c/2-th power of the determinant…
We develop an orbifold theory for finite, cyclic groups acting on holomorphic vertex operator algebras. Then we show that Schellekens' classification of $V_1$-structures of meromorphic conformal field theories of central charge 24 is a…
The main properties of indefinite Kac-Moody and Borcherds algebras, considered in a unified way as Lorentzian algebras, are reviewed. The connection with the conformal field theory of the vertex operator construction is discussed. By the…
We investigate vertex operator algebras $L(k,0)$ associated with modular-invariant representations for an affine Lie algebra $A_1 ^{(1)}$ , where k is 'admissible' rational number. We show that VOA $L(k,0)$ is rational in the category $\cal…
The Heisenberg Oscillator Algebra admits irreducible representations both on the ring $B$ of polynomials in infinitely many indeterminates (the {\em bosonic representation}) and on a graded-by-{\em charge} vector space, the {\em…
