Local and Semilocal Vertex Operator Algebras
نویسنده
چکیده
We initiate a general structure theory for vertex operator algebras V . We discuss the center and the blocks of V , the Jacobson radical and solvable radical, and local vertex operator algebras. The main consequence of our structure theory is that if V satisfies some mild conditions, then it is necessarily semilocal, i.e. a direct sum of local vertex operator algebras.

Local Systems of Twisted Vertex Operators, Vertex Operator Superalgebras and Twisted Modules
We introduce the notion of “local system of ZT -twisted vertex operators” on a Z2-graded vector space M , generalizing the notion of local system of vertex operators [Li]. First, we prove that any local system of ZT -twisted vertex operators on M has a vertex superalgebra structure with an automorphism σ of order T with M as a σ-twisted module. Then we prove that for a vertex (operator) superal...

The theory of vertex (operator) algebras has developed rapidly in the last few years. These rich algebraic structures provide the proper formulation for the moonshine module construction for the Monster group ([B1-B2], [FLM1], [FLM3]) and also give a lot of new insight into the representation theory of the Virasoro algebra and affine Kac-Moody algebras (see for instance [DL3], [DMZ], [FZ], [W])...
متن کامل~-adic quantum vertex algebras and their modules
This is a paper in a series to study vertex algebra-like structures arising from various algebras including quantum affine algebras and Yangians. In this paper, we study notions of ~-adic nonlocal vertex algebra and ~-adic (weak) quantum vertex algebra, slightly generalizing Etingof-Kazhdan’s notion of quantum vertex operator algebra. For any topologically free C[[~]]-module W , we study ~-adic...
متن کاملSemi-infinite forms and topological vertex operator algebras
Semi-infinite forms on the moduli spaces of genus-zero Riemann surfaces with punctures and local coordinates are introduced. A partial operad for semi-infinite forms is constructed. Using semi-infinite forms and motivated by a partial suboperad of the partial operad for semi-infinite forms, topological vertex partial operads of type k < 0 and strong topological vertex partial operads of type k ...
متن کاملLocal Systems of Vertex Operators, Vertex Superalgebras and Modules
We give an analogue for vertex operator algebras and superalgebras of the notion of endomorphism ring of a vector space by means of a notion of “local system of vertex operators” for a (super) vector space. We first prove that any local system of vertex operators on a (super) vector space M has a natural vertex (super)algebra structure with M as a module. Then we prove that for a vertex (operat...
