  • 1. Orbifolds and cosets

Let V be a vertex algebra. G ⊂ Aut(V) a finite-dimensional, reductive group. Define orbifold VG = {v ∈ V| gv = v, ∀g ∈ G}. A ⊂ V a vertex subalgebra. Define coset Com(A, V) = {v ∈ V| [a(z), v(w)] = 0, ∀a ∈ A}. Suppose V has a nice property, such as strong finite generation, C2-cofiniteness, or rationality. Problem: Do VG and Com(A, V) inherit this property?

Thm: (Dong-Nagatomo, 1999) HZ/2Z has minimal strong generating set {ω0,0, ω0,2}, and is of type W(2, 4). For all k ≥ 2, we have a decoupling relation ω0,2k = P(ω0,0, ω0,2). Ex : ω0,4 = −2 5 : ω0,0∂2ω0,0 : +4 5 : ω0,0ω0,2 : +1 5 : ∂ω0,0∂ω0,0 : +7 5∂2ω0,2 − 7 30∂4ω0,0. Alternatively, this can be written in the form ω0,4 = −4 5(: ω0,0ω1,1 : − : ω0,1ω0,1 :) + 7 5∂2ω0,2 − 7 30∂4ω0,0. This is a quantum correction of the analogous classical relation q0,0q1,1 − q0,1q0,1.

  • 12. Deformable families

K ⊂ C a subset which is at most countable. FK the C-algebra of rational functions p(κ) q(κ), deg(p) ≤ deg(q), such that the roots of q lie in K. A deformable family B is a vertex algebra defined over FK. For k / ∈ K, ordinary vertex algebra Bk = B/(κ − k). B∞ = limκ→∞ B is a well-defined vertex algebra over C. Thm: (Creutzig-L, 2012) A strong generating set for B∞ gives rise to a strong generating set for Bk with the same cardinality, for generic values of k.
