We begin by reviewing Zhu's theorem on modular invariance of trace functions associated to a vertex operator algebra, as well as a generalisation by the author to vertex operator superalgebras. This generalisation involves objects that we…
This article studies some features of quantum field theories with internal supersymmetry, focusing mainly on 2-dimensional non-linear sigma models which take values in a coset superspace. It is discussed how BRST operators from the target…
N=2 four dimensional gauge theories admit interesting half BPS surface operators preserving a (2,2) two dimensional SUSY algebra. Typical examples are (2,2) 2d sigma models with a flavor symmetry which is coupled to the 4d gauge fields.…
We discuss additional supersymmetries for N = (2, 2) supersymmetric non-linear sigma models described by left and right semichiral superfields.
We describe an approach to classify (meromorphic) representations of a given vertex operator algebra by calculating Zhu's algebra explicitly. We demonstrate this for FKS lattice theories and subtheories corresponding to the Z_2 reflection…
We describe $\sigma$-matching, interchangeable and, as a consequence, totally compatible structures on the strictly upper triangular matrix algebra $UT_n(K)$ for all $n\ge 3$.
We analyze several issues concerning the singular vectors of the Topological N=2 Superconformal algebra. First we investigate which types of singular vectors exist, regarding the relative U(1) charge and the BRST-invariance properties,…
The vertex operator algebras and modules associated to the highest weight modules for the Virasoro algebra over an arbitrary field F whose characteristic is not equal to 2 are studied. The irreducible modules of vertex operator algebra…
In this paper we develop a formalism for working with twisted realizations of vertex and conformal algebras. As an example, we study realizations of conformal algebras by twisted formal power series. The main application of our technique is…
There are many analogies between codes, lattices, and vertex operator algebras. For example, extremal objects are good examples of combinatorial, spherical, and conformal designs. In this study, we investigated these objects from the aspect…
In this first of two papers, we explain in detail the simplest example of a broader set of relations between apparently very different theories. Our example relates $\mathfrak{su}(2)$ $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills (SYM) to a theory we…
A $\sigma$-operator on a complexification $V_{\C}$ of an $\R$-vector space $V_{\R}$ is an operator $A \in \rm{End}_{\C} (V_{\C})$ such that $\sigma (A) = 0$ where $\sigma (z)$ denotes the Weierstrass $\sigma$-function. In this paper we…
In this work we present 3-algebraic constructions and representations for three-dimensional N = 5 supersymmetric Chern-Simons theories, and show how they relate to theories with additional supersymmetries. The N = 5 structure constants give…
Briefly: Using a novel $(1,1)$ superspace formulation of semichiral sigma models with $4D$ target space, we investigate if an extended supersymmetry in terms of semichirals is compatible with having a $4D$ target space with torsion. In more…
We construct a spectral sequence that converges to the cohomology of the chiral de Rham complex over a Calabi-Yau hypersurface and whose first term is a vertex algebra closely related to the Landau-Ginburg orbifold. As an application, we…
We generalize the Carpi-Kawahigashi-Longo-Weiner correspondence between vertex operator algebras and conformal nets to the case of vertex operator superalgebras and graded-local conformal nets by introducing the notion of strongly…
We give a review of recent works for non-associative algebras, especially Lie algebras satisfying the triality relation. They are also intimately related to S_4 (symmetric group of 4-objects) symmetry of the Lie algebras.
We study dualities in off-shell 4D N = 2 supersymmetric sigma-models, using the projective superspace approach. These include (i) duality between the real O(2n) and polar multiplets; and (ii) polar-polar duality. We demonstrate that the…
These three topics are an attempt to explicate some curiosities of the inverse problem of representation theory (i.e. having a set of operators to describe the "correct" algebraic object, which is represented by them) on simple examples…
We investigate the construction of four-family ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Pati-Salam models from Type IIA $\mathbb{T}^6/(\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_2)$ orientifold with intersecting D6-branes. Utilizing the deterministic algorithm…
