Conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion (or rather its Fourier transform) of chiral fields in a conformal field theory. This is a review of recent developments in the subject.
In this paper, we develop a cohomology theory of a left-symmetric conformal algebra and study its some applications. We define the cohomology of a left-symmetric conformal algebra, and then give an isomorphism between the cohomology spaces…
Lie conformal algebras appear in the theory of vertex algebras. Their relation is similar to that of Lie algebras and their universal enveloping algebras. Associative conformal algebras play a role in conformal representation theory. We…
$\Gamma$-conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields with simple poles at finitely many points. We classify these algebras and their representations in terms of Lie algebras and their…
All the basic cohomology groups and reduced cohomology groups of the extended Schr\"odinger-Virasoro conformal algebra with trivial coefficients are completely determined. In particular, we introduce the notion of the relative cohomology of…
The purpose of this paper is to extend the cohomology and conformal derivation theories of the classical Lie conformal algebras to Hom-Lie conformal algebras. In this paper, we develop cohomology theory of Hom-Lie conformal algebras and…
We review various aspects of two dimensional conformal field theories paying close attention to the algebraic structures that intervene. We provide a compact description regarding the appearance of a chiral algebra as the symmetry algebra…
The notion of conformal algebras was introduced by Victor G. Kac using the axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields in conformal field theory. The structure theory, representations and cohomology of Lie and…
Conformal algebras, recently introduced by Kac, encode an axiomatic description of the singular part of the operator product expansion in conformal field theory. The objective of this paper is to develop the theory of ``multi-dimensional''…
In this article, we revisit some aspects of the computation of the cohomology class of $H^2 ( \text{Witt}, \mathbb{C})$ using some methods in two-dimensional conformal field theory and conformal algebra to obtain the one-dimensional central…
By using the energy operator introduced by B. Bakalov, A. De Sole, and V.\,G. Kac, we propose an algorithm for computing the cohomology of finitely generated free Lie conformal algebras with a Virasoro element. This computational method…
We define cohomology of associative H-pseudoalgebras, and we show that it describes module extensions, abelian pseudoalgebra extensions, and pseudoalgebra first order deformations. We describe in details the same results for the special…
The notion of a Lie conformal superalgebra encodes an axiomatic descrption of singular parts of the operator product expansions of chiral fields in conformal field theory. In the paper we give a detailed proof of the classification of all…
The purpose of this paper is to extend the cohomology and conformal derivation theories of the classical Lie conformal algebras to Lie conformal superalgebras. Firstly, we construct the semidirect product of a Lie conformal superalgebra and…
We present recent progress in theory of local conformal nets which is an operator algebraic approach to study chiral conformal field theory. We emphasize representation theoretic aspects and relations to theory of vertex operator algebras…
In this paper, we consider compatible Hom-Lie algebras as a twisted version of compatible Lie algebras. Compatible Hom-Lie algebras are characterized as Maurer-Cartan elements in a suitable bidifferential graded Lie algebra. We also define…
Vertex algebras provide an axiomatic algebraic description of the operator product expansion (OPE) of chiral fields in 2-dimensional conformal field theory. Vertex Lie algebras (= Lie conformal algebras) encode the singular part of the OPE,…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the cohomology of various algebras over an operad of moduli spaces including the cohomology of conformal field theories (CFT's) and vertex operator algebras (VOA's). This cohomology theory produces…
In this paper, we compute the cohomology of the Heisenberg-Virasoro conformal algebra with coefficients in its modules, and in particular with trivial coefficients both for the basic and reduced complexes.
The role of automorphisms of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras in conformal field theory is examined. Two main types of applications are discussed; they are related to the enhancement and reduction of symmetry, respectively. The structures…
