Codes and Vertex Operator Algebras

Framed vertex operator algebras, codes and the moonshine module

For a simple vertex operator algebra whose Virasoro element is a sum of commutative Virasoro elements of central charge 1 2 , two codes are introduced and studied. It is proved that such vertex operator algebras are rational. For lattice vertex operator algebras and related ones, decompositions into direct sums of irreducible modules for the product of the Virasoro algebras of central charge 1 ...

Vertex Operator Algebras And

Let V be a vertex operator algebra. We construct a sequence of associative algebras A n (V) (n = 0; 1; 2; :::) such that A n (V) is a quotient of A n+1 (V) and a pair of functors between the category of A n (V)-modules which are not A n?1 (V)-modules and the category of admissible V-modules. These functors exhibit a bijection between the simple modules in each category. We also show that V is r...

To Vertex Operator Algebras

In this exposition, we continue the discussions of Dong [D2] and Li [L]. We shall prove an S3-symmetry of the Jacobi identity, construct the contragredient module for a module for a vertex operator algebra and apply these to the construction of the vertex operator map for the moonshine module. We shall introduce the notions of intertwining operator, fusion rule and Verlinde algebra. We shall al...

Vertex operator algebras and operads

Vertex operator algebras are mathematically rigorous objects corresponding to chiral algebras in conformal field theory. Operads are mathematical devices to describe operations, that is, n-ary operations for all n greater than or equal to 0, not just binary products. In this paper, a reformulation of the notion of vertex operator algebra in terms of operads is presented. This reformulation show...
