There are 10 generalized Kac-Moody algebras whose denominator identities are completely reflective automorphic products of singular weight on lattices of squarefree level. Under the assumption that the meromorphic vertex operator algebra of…

We introduce an affinization of the quantum Kac-Moody algebra associated to a symmetric generalized Cartan matrix. Based on the affinization, we construct a representation of the quantum Kac-Moody algebra by vertex operators from bosonic…

Starting from Borcherds' fake monster Lie algebra we construct a sequence of six generalized Kac-Moody algebras whose denominator formulas, root systems and all root multiplicities can be described explicitly. The root systems decompose…

In this thesis we develop an orbifold theory for a finite, cyclic group $G$ acting on a suitably regular, holomorphic vertex operator algebra $V$. To this end we describe the fusion algebra of the fixed-point vertex operator subalgebra…

Borcherds-Kac-Moody algebras generalise finite-dimensional, simple Lie algebras. Scheithauer showed that there are exactly ten Borcherds-Kac-Moody algebras whose denominator identities are completely reflective automorphic products of…

We provide evidence for the existence of a family of generalized Kac-Moody(GKM) superalgebras, G_N, whose Weyl-Kac-Borcherds denominator formula gives rise to a genus-two modular form at level N, Delta_{k/2}(Z), for (N,k)=(1,10), (2,6),…

In this paper, we calculate the dimension of root spaces $\mathfrak{g}_{\lambda}$ of a special type rank $3$ Kac-Moody algebras $\mathfrak{g}$. We first introduce a special type of elements in $\mathfrak{g}$, which we call elements in…

We provide a rigorous mathematical foundation to the study of strongly rational, holomorphic vertex operator algebras V of central charge c = 8, 16 and 24 initiated by Schellekens. If c = 8 or 16 we show that V is isomorphic to a lattice…

We use a Z_2-orbifold of the vertex operator algebra associated to the Niemeier lattice with root lattice A_3^8 and the no-ghost theorem of string theory to construct a generalized Kac-Moody algebra. Borcherds' theory of automorphic…

We associate with a generalised deep hole of the Leech lattice vertex operator algebra a generalised hole diagram. We show that this Dynkin diagram determines the generalised deep hole up to conjugacy and that there are exactly 70 such…

This article is devoted to the analysis of the gauge-fixed BRST cohomology complex for a matrix model endowed with a $U(2)$-gauge symmetry. After a brief introduction on the BV construction and the gauge-fixing procedure in the setting of…

Odd, positive-definite, integral, unimodular lattices N of rank 24 were classified by Borcherds. There are 273 isometry classes of such lattices. Associated to them are vertex superalgebras $V_N$ of central charge c=24. We show that at…

We present a variant of the Theory of Lorentzian (i. e. with a hyperbolic generalized Cartan matrix) Kac-Moody algebras recently developed by V. A. Gritsenko and the author. It is closely related with and strongly uses results of R.…

We prove a dimension formula for the weight-1 subspace of a vertex operator algebra $V^{\operatorname{orb}(g)}$ obtained by orbifolding a strongly rational, holomorphic vertex operator algebra $V$ of central charge 24 with a finite-order…

We construct a generalised notion of Kac-Moody algebras using smooth maps from the non-compact manifolds ${\cal M}=$SL$(2,\mathbb R)$ and ${\cal M}=$ SL$(2,\mathbb R)/U(1)$ to a finite-dimensional simple Lie group $G$. This construction is…

We construct explicitly a Kac-Moody algebra associated to SL$(2, \mathbb R)$ in two different but equivalent ways: either by identifying a Hilbert basis of $L^2($SL$(2, \mathbb R))$ or by the Plancherel Theorem. Central extensions and…

We investigate some of the motivations and consequences of the conjecture that the Kac-Moody algebra E11 is the symmetry algebra of M-theory, and we develop methods to aid the further investigation of this idea. The definitions required to…

This article is a continuation of our work on the classification of holomorphic framed vertex operator algebras of central charge 24. We show that a holomorphic framed VOA of central charge 24 is uniquely determined by the Lie algebra…

Using free field representation of quantum affine algebra $U_q(\widehat{sl_2})$, we investigate the structure of the Fock modules over $U_q(\widehat{sl_2})$. The analisys is based on a $q$-analog of the BRST formalism given by Bernard and…

We present a classification of the hyperbolic Kac-Moody (HKM) superalgebras. The HKM superalgebras of rank larger or equal than 3 are finite in number (213) and limited in rank (6). The Dynkin-Kac diagrams and the corresponding simple root…
