The structure of the parafermion vertex operator algebra associated to an integrable highest weight module for any affine Kac-Moody algebra is studied. In particular, a set of generators for this algebra has been determined.
It is proved that the parafermion vertex operator algebra associated to the irreducible highest weight module for the affine Kac-Moody algebra A_1^{(1)} of level k coincides with a certain W-algebra. In particular, a set of generators for the parafermion vertex operator algebra is determined.
In this paper, the structure of the parafermion vertex operator algebra associated to an integrable highest weight module for simple affine Lie superalgebra $osp(1|2n)$ is studied. Particularly, we determine the generators for this algebra.
In this paper, I investigate the ascending chain condition of right ideals in the case of vertex operator algebras satisfying a finiteness and/or a simplicity condition. Possible applications to the study of finiteness of orbifold VOAs is discussed.
It is proved that any vertex operator algebra for which the image of the Virasoro element in Zhus algebra is algebraic over complex numbers is finitely generated. In particular, any vertex operator algebra with a finite dimensional Zhus algebra is fi
nitely generated. As a result, any rational vertex operator algebra is finitely generated.
In this paper we study the integral form of the lattice vertex algebra $V_L$. Based on the lattice structure, we introduce and study the associated modular vertex algebras $V_p$ and the quotient algebra $overline{V}_p$ as well as their irreducible mo
dules over $mathbb Z_p$. We show that divided powers of general vertex operators preserve the integral lattice spanned by Schur functions indexed by partition-valued functions. We also show that the Garland operators, counterparts of divided powers of Heisenberg elements in affine Lie algebras, also preserve the integral form. These construe analogs of the Kostant $mathbb Z$-forms for the enveloping algebras of simple Lie algebras and the algebraic affine Lie groups in the situation of the lattice vertex algebras. We also prove that the irreducible modules (modulo Heisenberg generators of degree divisible by $p$) remain irreducible for the modular vertex algebra $overline{V}_p$.
