The decomposition of correlation functions into conformal blocks is an indispensable tool in conformal field theory. For spinning correlators, non-trivial tensor structures are needed to mediate between the conformal blocks, which are…

False theta functions closely resemble ordinary theta functions, however they do not have the modular transformation properties that theta functions have. In this paper, we find modular completions for false theta functions, which among…

In this paper we use automorph class theory formalism to construct a lifting of similitudes of quadratic Z-modules of arbitrary ternary nondegenerate quadratic forms to morphisms between certain subrings of associated Clifford algebras. The…

We derive the modular S and T matrices that generate the modular transformations on the characters of two dimensional Carrollian and warped CFT algebras. We verify that they satisfy some of their defining properties.

We prove that the span of normalized characters of subprincipal admissible modules over an affine Lie algebra of subprincipal admissible level $k$ is $SL_2(\mathbf{Z})$-invariant and find the explicit modular transformation formula.

Rational CFT's are classified by an integer $\ell$, the number of zeroes of the Wronskian of their characters in moduli space. For $\ell=0$ they satisfy non-singular modular-invariant differential equations, while for $\ell>0$ the…

We define graded hyper-algebras of vector-valued Siegel modular forms, which allow us to study tensor products of the latter. We also define vector-valued Hecke operators for Siegel modular forms at all places of ${\mathbb Q}$, acting on…

We give closed formulas for all vectors of the canonical basis of a level 2 irreducible integrable representation of $U_v(sl_\infty)$. These formulas coincide at v=1 with Lusztig's formulas for the constructible characters of the…

We demonstrate that topological defects in a rational conformal field theory can be described by a classifying algebra for defects - a finite-dimensional semisimple unital commutative associative algebra whose irreducible representations…

For the algebraic group $SL_{l+1}(\mathbb{C})$ we describe a system of positive roots associated to conjugacy classes in its Weyl group. Using this we explicitly describe the algebra of regular functions on certain transverse slices to…

We extend our previous work arXiv:1012.5721 [hep-th] on the non-compact N=2 SCFT_2 defined as the supersymmetric SL(2,R)/U(1)-gauged WZW model. Starting from path-integral calculations of torus partition functions of both the axial-type…

We show that the normalized supercharacters of principal admissible modules, associated to each integrable atypical module over the affine Lie superalgebra $\widehat{sl}_{2|1}$ can be modified, using Zwegers' real analytic corrections, to…

We consider C-graded vertex algebras, which are vertex algebras V with a C-grading such that V is an admissible V-module generated by 'lowest weight vectors'. We show that such vertex algebras have a 'good' representation theory in the…

We study relationships between spinor representations of certain Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras of differential operators on the circle and values of $\zeta$--functions at the negative integers. By using formal calculus techniques we…

For any natural number $\ell $ and any prime $p\equiv 1 \pmod{4}$ not dividing $\ell $ there is a Hermitian modular form of arbitrary genus $n$ over $L:=\Q [\sqrt{-\ell}]$ that is congruent to 1 modulo $p$ which is a Hermitian theta series…

For a complex simple Lie algebra of type A_l,B_l,C_l or D_l, given a family of elements f_\lambda\ in commutative ring Z[\Lambda], we show that f_\lambda\ is just the formal character of the Weyl module V(\lambda) if f_\lambda\ satisfy…

A concise review of the notions of elliptic functions, modular forms, and theta-functions is provided, devoting most of the paper to applications to Conformal Field Theory (CFT), introduced within the axiomatic framework of quantum field…

Let $\mathfrak{o}$ be a complete discrete valuation ring with finide residue field $\mathsf{k}$ of odd characteristic, and let $\mathbf{G}$ be a symplectic or special orthogonal group scheme over $\mathfrak{o}$. For any $\ell\in\mathbb{N}$…

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…

Let $\f$ be a primitive, cuspidal Hilbert modular form of parallel weight. We investigate the Rankin convolution $L$-values $L(\f,\g,s)$, where $\g$ is a theta-lift modular form corresponding to a finite-order character. We prove weak forms…
