The radical $J(V)$ of a vertex operator algebra $V$ is defined to be the subspace of $V$ consisting of vectors $v$ such that the zero mode $o(v)=0$ on $V$ where $o(v)=v_{wt v-1}$ if $v$ is homogeneous. We establish various facts about…

The rationality of the parafermion vertex operator algebra associated to any finite dimensional simple Lie algebra and any nonnegative integer is established and the irreducible modules are determined.

We develop a theory of toroidal vertex algebras and their modules, and we give a conceptual construction of toroidal vertex algebras and their modules. As an application, we associate toroidal vertex algebras and their modules to toroidal…

For a vertex operator algebra $V$, the regular representations are related to the $A_{n}(V)$-algebras and their bimodules, and induced $V$-modules from $A_{n}(V)$-modules are defined and studied in terms of the regular representations.

We characterize vertex algebras (in a suitable sense) as algebras over a certain graded co-operad. We also discuss some examples and categorical implications of this characterization.

The leitmotif of these Notes is the idea of a vertex operator algebra (VOA) and the relationship between VOAs and elliptic functions and modular forms. This is to some extent analogous to the relationship between a finite group and its…

Unitary vertex operator algebras are introduced and studied. It is proved that most well-known rational vertex operator algebras are unitary. The classification of unitary vertex operator algebras with central charge c less than or equal to…

Vertex operator algebras are mathematically rigorous objects corresponding to chiral algebras in conformal field theory. Operads are mathematical devices to describe operations, that is, $n$-ary operations for all $n$ greater than or equal…

For a vertex operator algebra V, a V-module M and a nonnegative integer n, an A_n(V)-bimodule A_n(M) is constructed and studied. The connection between A_n(M) and intertwining operators are discussed. In the case that V is rational, A_n(M)…

In this paper, we define differential graded vertex operator algebras and the algebraic structures on the associated Zhu algebras and $C_2$-algebras. We also introduce the corresponding notions of modules, and investigate the relations…

For a simple vertex operator algebra whose Virasoro element is a sum of commutative Virasoro elements of central charge 1/2, two codes are introduced and studied. It is proved that such vertex operator algebras are rational. For lattice…

Let V be a vertex operator algebra. We construct a sequence of associative algebras A_n(V) (n=0,1,2,...) such that A_{n}(V) is a quotient of A_{n+1}(V) and a pair of functors between the category of A_n(V)-modules which are not…

Derivations play a fundamental role in the definition of vertex (operator) algebras, sometimes regarded as a generalization of differential commutative algebras. This paper studies the role played by the integral counterpart of the…

We use the Fock semicrossed product to define an operator algebra associated to a module over an integral domain. We consider the $C^*$-envelope of the semicrossed product, and then consider properties of these algebras as models for…
