We introduce two $K$-theories, one for vector bundles whose fibers are modules of vertex operator algebras, another for vector bundles whose fibers are modules of associative algebras. We verify the cohomological properties of these…
Recently (hep-th/9307183) we showed that for the case of the WZW- and the minimal models fusion can be understood as a certain ring-like tensor product of the symmetry algebra. In this paper we generalize this analysis to arbitrary chiral…
An algebraic representation of the Turing machines is given, where the configurations of Turing machines are represented by 4 order tensors, and the transition functions by 8 order tensors. Two types of tensor product are defined, one is to…
We study simple current extensions of tensor products of two vertex operator algebras satisfying certain conditions. We establish the relationship between the fusion rule for the simple current extension and the fusion rule for a tensor…
In this paper we first determine all irreducible representations of a wedge product of two table algebras in terms of the irreducible representations of two factors involved. Then we give some necessary and sufficient conditions for a table…
We describe a completely algebraic axiom system for intertwining operators of vertex algebra modules, using algebraic flat connections, thus formulating the concept of a {\em tree algebra}. Using the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, we…
These are the lecture notes for a course taught at Tsinghua University in the spring of 2022. In these notes, we develop the basic theory of vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and their conformal blocks using complex-analytic methods. In…
We investigate the structure of representations of the (positive half of the) Virasoro algebra and situations in which they decompose as a tensor product of Lie algebra representations. As an illustration, we apply these results to the…
Motivated by the study of indecomposable, nonsimple modules for a vertex operator algebra $V$, we study the relationship between various types of $V$-modules and modules for the higher level Zhu algebras for $V$, denoted $A_n(V)$, for $n…
In this paper I consider the polymorpism of representations of universal algebra and tensor product of representations of universal algebra.
The purpose of this note is to demonstrate the advantages of Y.-Z.~Huang's definition of the Zhu algebra (Comm.\ Contemp.\ Math., 7 (2005), no.~5, 649--706) for an arbitrary vertex algebra, not necessarily equipped with a Hamiltonian…
In this paper we define a quantum version of the ``fusion'' tensor product of two representations of an affine Kac-Moody algebra.It is replaced by what we call fusion action of the category of finite-dimensional representations of quantum…
We relate extensions of completely unitary VOAs and (commutative) Q-systems. As an application, we show that any unitary extension of a completely unitary VOA is completely unitary.
This is the second half of a two-part series studying tensor categories of unitary vertex operator algebras from a unitary point of view.
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…
We give some general results about the generators and relations for the higher level Zhu algebras for a vertex operator algebra. In particular, for any element $u$ in a vertex operator algebra $V$, such that $u$ has weight greater than or…
In this paper we study a series of vertex operator algebras of integer level associated to the affine Lie algebra $A_{\ell}^{(1)}$. These vertex operator algebras are constructed by using the explicit construction of certain singular…
We study the tensor product of an associative and a nonassociative cyclic algebra. The condition for the tensor product to be a division algebra equals the classical one for the tensor product of two associative cyclic algebras by Albert or…
Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra satisfying suitable conditions such that in particular its module category has a natural vertex tensor category structure, and consequently, a natural braided tensor category structure. We prove that the…
We investigate associative quotients of vertex algebras. We also give a short construction of the Zhu algebra, and a proof of its associativity using elliptic functions.
