Genus Two Partition and Correlation Functions for Fermionic Vertex Operator Superalgebras I
(2010)
We define the partition and $n$-point correlation functions for a vertex operator superalgebra on a genus two Riemann surface formed by sewing two tori together. For the free fermion vertex operator superalgebra we obtain ...
A Generalized Vertex Operator Algebra for Heisenberg Intertwiners
(2011)
We consider the extension of the Heisenberg vertex operator algebra by all its irreducible modules. We give an elementary construction for the intertwining vertex operators and show that they satisfy a complex parametrized ...
Free Bosonic Vertex Operator Algebras on Genus Two Riemann Surfaces II
(2011)
We continue our program to define and study $n$-point correlation functions for a vertex operator algebra $V$ on a higher genus compact Riemann surface obtained by sewing surfaces of lower genus. Here we consider Riemann ...
Virasoro Correlation Functions for Vertex Operator Algebras
(2011)
We consider all genus zero and genus one correlation functions for the Virasoro vacuum descendants of a vertex operator algebra. These are described in terms of explicit generating functions that can be combinatorially ...
Generalised Moonshine and Abelian Orbifold Constructions
(1994)
We consider the application of Abelian orbifold constructions in Meromorphic Conformal Field Theory (MCFT) towards an understanding of various aspects of Monstrous Moonshine and Generalised Moonshine. We review some of the ...
Exceptional Vertex Operator Algebras and the Virasoro Algebra
(2008)
We consider exceptional vertex operator algebras for which particular Casimir vectors constructed from the primary vectors of lowest conformal weight are Virasoro descendants of the vacuum. We discuss constraints on these ...
Free Bosonic Vertex Operator Algebras on Genus Two Riemann Surfaces I
(2009)
We define the partition and $n$-point functions for a vertex operator algebra on a genus two Riemann surface formed by sewing two tori together. We obtain closed formulas for the genus two partition function for the ...
Vertex Operators and Modular Forms
(2009)
The leitmotif of these Notes is the idea of a vertex operator algebra (VOA) and the relationship between VOAs and elliptic functions and modular forms. This is to some extent analogous to the relationship between a finite ...
The Szegö Kernel on a Sewn Riemann Surface
(2010)
We describe the Szegö kernel on a higher genus Riemann surface in terms of Szegö kernel data coming from lower genus surfaces via two explicit sewing procedures where either two Riemann surfaces are sewn together or a ...
Monstrous and Generalized Moonshine and Permutation Orbifolds
(2008)
We consider the application of permutation orbifold constructions towards a new possible understanding of the genus zero property in Monstrous and Generalized Moonshine. We describe a theory of twisted Hecke operators in ...
