Let M(r) be the moduli space of rank r vector bundles with trivial determinant on a Riemann surface X . This space carries a natural line bundle, the determinant line bundle L . We describe a canonical isomorphism of the space of global…

Let $L$ be a Lie algebra of Block type over $\C$ with basis $\{L_{\alpha,i}\,|\,\alpha,i\in\Z\}$ and brackets $[L_{\alpha,i},L_{\beta,j}]=(\beta(i+1)-\alpha(j+1))L_{\alpha+\beta,i+j}$. In this paper, we shall construct a formal distribution…

We investigate a one-point restriction of conformal blocks on $(\mathbb{P}^1,\infty,1,0)$ associated with modules over a vertex operator algebra. By restricting the module attached to the point $\infty$ to its bottom degree, we obtain a new…

In this work, we study a family of vector bundles on the moduli space of curves constructed from representations of $\text{Vir}_{2k+1,2}$, a family of vertex operator algebras derived from the Virasoro Lie algebra. Using the relationship…

In this paper, we prove that nonnegative polyharmonic functions on the upper half space satisfying a conformally invariant nonlinear boundary condition have to be the "\emph{polynomials} plus \emph{bubbles}" form. The nonlinear problem is…

We give a new way to derive branching rules for the conformal embedding $$(\asl_n)_m\oplus(\asl_m)_n\subset(\asl_{nm})_1.$$ In addition, we show that the category $\Cc(\asl_n)_m^0$ of degree zero integrable highest weight…

We compute the conformal blocks associated with scalar-scalar-fermion-fermion 4-point functions in 3D CFTs. Together with the known scalar conformal blocks, our result completes the task of determining the so-called `seed blocks' in three…

We continue the work of Eriksen, Freij, and Wastlund [3], who study derangements that descend in blocks of prescribed lengths. We generalize their work to derangements that ascend in some blocks and descend in others. In particular, we…

Virasoro conformal blocks are expected to exponentiate in the limit of large central charge $c$ and large operator dimensions $h_i$, with the ratios $h_i/c$ held fixed. We prove this by employing the oscillator formulation of the Virasoro…

We introduce a large class of conformally-covariant differential operators and a crossing equation that they obey. Together, these tools dramatically simplify calculations involving operators with spin in conformal field theories. As an…

We use supershadow methods to derive new expressions for superconformal blocks in 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal field theories. We analyze the four-point function $\langle\mathcal{A}_1 \mathcal{A}_2^\dagger \mathcal{B}_1…

We study cyclic covering morphisms from $\bar{M}_{0,n}$ to moduli spaces of unpointed stable curves of positive genus or compactified moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian varieties. Our main application is a construction of new…

This paper finds for all orthogonal algebras (i.e. the B and D series) all modular invariant 1-loop partition functions at levels 1,2,3. Previously, only those at level 1 were classified. An extraordinary number of exceptionals appear at…

Conformal blocks are the building blocks for correlation functions in conformal field theories. The four-point function is the most well-studied case. We consider conformal blocks for $n$-point correlation functions. For conformal field…

We suggest a certain type of conformal $n$-point function of scalar primaries where the scalar operators share the same scaling dimension. The conformal correlation functions are obtained in momentum space, and we show that they satisfy the…

We make a very detailed analysis of the numerical properties of effective divisors whose support is contained in the exceptional locus of a birational morphism of smooth projective surfaces. As an application we extend Miyaoka's inequality…

For distinct complex numbers $z_1,...,z_{2N}$, we give a polynomial $P(y_1,...,y_{2N})$ in the variables $y_1,...,y_{2N}$, which is homogeneous of degree $N$, linear with respect to each variable, $sl_2$-invariant with respect to a natural…

We systematically classify all possible poles of superconformal blocks as a function of the scaling dimension of intermediate operators, for all superconformal algebras in dimensions three and higher. This is done by working out the…

We find a criterion for an effective divisor $D$ on a smooth surface to be left-orthogonal or strongly left-orthogonal (i.e. for the pair of line bundles $(\mathcal O,\mathcal O(D))$ to be exceptional or strong exceptional).

We describe a nef divisor $D_P$ on $\bar{M}_{0,12}$ that is not numerically equivalent to an effective sum of boundary divisors.
