Foliation of a space associated to vertex operator algebra

In this paper, we construct the foliation of a space associated to correlation functions of vertex operator algebras, considered on Riemann surfaces. We prove that the computation of general genus g correlation functions determines a foliation on the space associated to these correlation functions a sewn Riemann surface. Certain further applications of the definition are proposed.

The large N limit of orbifold vertex operator algebras

We investigate the large N limit of permutation orbifolds of vertex operator algebras. To this end, we introduce the notion of nested oligomorphic permutation orbifolds and discuss under which conditions their fixed point VOAs converge. We show that if this limit exists, then it has the structure of a vertex algebra. Finally, we give an example based on $$\mathrm {GL}(N,q)$$ GL ( N , q ) for which the fixed point VOA limit is also the limit of the full permutation orbifold VOA.

The spectra of finite 3-transposition groups

We calculate the spectrum of the diagram for each finite 3-transposition group. Such graphs with a given minimum eigenvalue have occurred in the context of compact Griess subalgebras of vertex operator algebras.

W algebras, cosets and VOAs for 4d $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 SCFTs from M5 branes

We identify vertex operator algebras (VOAs) of a class of Argyres-Douglas (AD) matters with two types of non-abelian flavor symmetries. They are the W algebras defined using nilpotent orbit with partition [qm, 1s]. Gauging above AD matters, we can find VOAs for more general $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 SCFTs engineered from 6d (2, 0) theories. For example, the VOA for general (AN − 1, Ak − 1) theory is found as the coset of a collection of above W algebras. Various new interesting properties of 2d VOAs such as level-rank duality, conformal embedding, collapsing levels, coset constructions for known VOAs can be derived from 4d theory.

Uprolling unrolled quantum groups

We construct families of commutative (super) algebra objects in the category of weight modules for the unrolled restricted quantum group [Formula: see text] of a simple Lie algebra [Formula: see text] at roots of unity, and study their categories of local modules. We determine their simple modules and derive conditions for these categories being finite, non-degenerate, and ribbon. Motivated by numerous examples in the [Formula: see text] case, we expect some of these categories to compare nicely to categories of modules for vertex operator algebras. We focus in particular on examples expected to correspond to the higher rank triplet vertex algebra [Formula: see text] of Feigin and Tipunin and the [Formula: see text] algebras.
