We investigate orbifold constructions of conformal field theories from lattices by no-fixed-point automorphisms (NFPA's) $Z_p$ for $p$ prime, $p>2$, concentrating on the case $p=3$. Explicit expressions are given for most of the relevant…
An account is given of the structure and representations of chiral bosonic meromorphic conformal field theories (CFT's), and, in particular, the conditions under which such a CFT may be extended by a representation to form a new theory.…
Recent work on the classification of conformal field theories with one primary field (the identity operator) is reviewed. The classification of such theories is an essential step in the program of classification of all rational conformal…
We show that there is a set of transformations that relates all of the 24 dimensional even self-dual (Niemeier) lattices, and also leads to non-lattice objects that however cannot be interpreted as a basis for the construction of…
We consider chiral fermionic conformal field theories (CFTs) constructed from lattices and investigate their orbifolds under reflection and shift $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetries. For lattices based on binary error-correcting codes, we show the…
We study error correcting codes that construct the Narain lattices of heterotic strings as code lattices. We identify, in both $E_8\times E_8$ and Spin$(32)/Z_2$ heterotic strings, a pair of a binary code and a set of the corresponding…
We discuss questions arising from the recent work of Schellekens, and also from an earlier paper by Schellekens and Yankielowicz. We summarise Schellekens' results, and proceed to discuss the uniqueness of the c=24 self-dual conformal field…
We discuss geometric aspects of orbifold conformal field theories in the moduli space of N=(4,4) superconformal field theories with central charge c=6. Part of this note consists of a summary of our earlier results on the location of these…
In this paper we propose a general ternary construction of lattices from three rows and ternary codes. Most laminated lattices and Kappa lattices in ${\bf R}^n$, $n\leq 24$ can be recovered from our tenary construction naturally. This…
The goal of these lectures is to present an informal but precise introduction to a body of concepts and methods of interest in number theory and string theory revolving around modular forms and their generalizations. Modular invariance lies…
The Landau-Ginzburg/Conformal Field Theory correspondence predicts tensor equivalences between categories of matrix factorisations of certain polynomials and categories associated to the $N=2$ supersymmetric conformal field theories. We…
By considering constraints on the dimensions of the Lie algebra corresponding to the weight one states of Z_2 and Z_3 orbifold models arising from imposing the appropriate modular properties on the graded characters of the automorphisms on…
Umbral moonshine connects the symmetry groups of the 23 Niemeier lattices with 23 sets of distinguished mock modular forms. The 23 cases of umbral moonshine have a uniform relation to symmetries of $K3$ string theories. Moreover, a…
We give new results on the structure and representations of the three lattices $\mathbf{\Lambda }_{\mathrm{k}},\mathbf{\Lambda }_{\mathrm{k}\mathcal{C}},\mathbf{\Lambda }_{\mathrm{k}}^{\ast }$ relevant to code CFTs realizing Narain…
We complete the building-up construction for self-dual codes by resolving the open cases over $GF(q)$ with $q \equiv 3 \pmod 4$, and over $\Z_{p^m}$ and Galois rings $\GR(p^m,r)$ with an odd prime $p$ satisfying $p \equiv 3 \pmod 4$ with…
We construct and fully characterize a scalar boundary conformal field theory on a triangulated Riemann surface. The results are analyzed from a string theory perspective as tools to deal with open/closed string dualities.
We construct Narain conformal field theories (CFTs) from quantum subsystem codes, a more comprehensive class of quantum error-correcting codes than quantum stabilizer codes, for qudit systems of prime dimensions. The resulting code CFTs…
This is the second paper in a series of papers aimed at providing a geometric construction of modular functors and topological quantum field theories from conformal field theory building on the constructions in [TUY] and [KNTY]. We give a…
We review the construction of braided tensor categories and modular tensor categories from representations of vertex operator algebras, which correspond to chiral algebras in physics. The extensive and general theory underlying this…
We analyze the general class of supersymmetry preserving orbifolds of strong/weak Type IIA/heterotic dual pairs in six dimensions and below. A unified treatment is given by considering compactification to two spacetime dimensions and…
