Abstract

We use recent results of Rolen, Zwegers, and the first author to study characters of irreducible (highest weight) modules for the vertex operator algebra Lsl(Λ0)L_{\frak{sl}_\ell}(-\Lambda_0). We establish asymptotic behaviors of characters for the (ordinary) irreducible Lsl(Λ0)L_{\frak{sl}_\ell}(-\Lambda_0)-modules. As a consequence we prove that their quantum dimensions are one, as predicted by representation theory. We also establish a full asymptotic expansion of irreducible characters for sl3\frak{sl}_3. Finally, we determine a decomposition formula for the full characters in terms of unary theta and false theta functions which allows us to study their modular properties.
