Virasoro Algebra, Dedekind η-function and Specialized Macdonald’s Identities
نویسنده
چکیده
We motivate and prove a series of identities which form a generalization of the Euler’s pentagonal number theorem, and are closely related to specialized Macdonald’s identities for powers of the Dedekind η–function. More precisely, we show that what we call “denominator formula” for the Virasoro algebra has “higher analogue” for all cs,t-minimal models. We obtain one identity per series which is in agreement with features of conformal field theory such as fusion and modular invariance that require all the irreducible modules of the series. In particular, in the case of c2,2k+1–minimal models we give a new proof of a family of specialized Macdonald’s identities associated with twisted affine Lie algebras of type A (2) 2k , k ≥ 2 (i.e., BCk-affine root system) which involve (2k − k)-th powers of the Dedekind η-function. Our paper is in many ways a continuation of math.QA/0309201.

A New Class of Theta Function Identities in Two Variables
We describe a new series of identities, which hold for certain general theta series, in two completely independent variables. We provide explicit examples of these identities involving the Dedekind eta function, Jacobi theta functions, and various theta functions of Ramanujan. Introduction Let z ∈ H = {x+ yi : x, y ∈ R, y > 0} and for each x ∈ R set q = exp(2πixz) and e(x) = exp(2πix). The Dede...
متن کاملAn Algorithm to Prove Algebraic Relations Involving Eta Quotients
In this paper we present an algorithm which can prove algebraic relations involving η-quotients, where η is the Dedekind eta function. 1. The Problem Let N be a positive integer throughout this paper. We denote by R(N) the set of integer sequences r = (rδ)δ|N indexed by the positive divisors δ of N ; r̃ = (r̃δ)δ|N is defined by r̃δ := rN/δ. For r ∈ R(N) we define an associated η-quotient as f(r)(τ...
متن کاملLie triple derivation algebra of Virasoro-like algebra
Let $mathfrak{L}$ be the Virasoro-like algebra and $mathfrak{g}$ itsderived algebra, respectively. We investigate the structure of the Lie triplederivation algebra of $mathfrak{L}$ and $mathfrak{g}$. We provethat they are both isomorphic to $mathfrak{L}$, which provides twoexamples of invariance under triple derivation.
متن کاملNew Jacobi-like Identities for Zk Parafermion Characters
We state and prove various new identities involving the ZK parafermion characters (or level-K string functions) cn for the cases K = 4, K = 8, and K = 16. These identities fall into three classes: identities in the first class are generalizations of the famous Jacobi θ-function identity (which is the K = 2 special case), identities in another class relate the level K > 2 characters to the Dedek...
