Let $A$ be a finite dimensional unital commutative associative algebra and let $B$ be a finite dimensional vertex $A$-algebroid such that its Levi factor is isomorphic to $sl_2$. Under suitable conditions, we construct an indecomposable non-simple $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebra $\overline{V_B}$ from the $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebra $V_B$ associated with the vertex $A$-algebroid $B$. We show that this indecomposable non-simple $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebra $\overline{V_B}$ is $C_2$-cofinite and has only two irreducible modules.
We study the family of vertex algebras associated with vertex algebroids, constructed by Gorbounov, Malikov, and Schechtman. As the main result, we classify all the (graded) simple modules for such vertex algebras and we show that the equivalence classes of graded simple modules one-to-one correspond to the equivalence classes of simple modules for the Lie algebroids associated with the vertex algebroids. To achieve our goal, we construct and exploit a Lie algebra from a given vertex algebroid.
We continue with [LY] to construct and classify graded simple twisted modules for the $\N$-graded vertex algebras constructed by Gorbounov, Malikov and Schechtman from vertex algebroids. Meanwhile we determine the full automorphism groups of those $\N$-graded vertex algebras in terms of the automorphism groups of the corresponding vertex algebroids.
This is the first of two papers on vertex Poisson algebras associated with Courant algebroids, and their deformations. In this work, we study relationships between vertex Poisson algebras and Courant algebroids. For any $\N$-graded vertex Poisson algebra $A=\coprod_{n\in\N} A_{(n)}$, we show that $A_{(1)}$ is a Courant $A_{(0)}$-algebroid. On the other hand, for any Courant $\mathcal{A}$-algebroid $\mathcal{B}$, we construct an $\N$-graded vertex Poisson algebra $A=\coprod_{n\in\N}A_{(n)}$ such that $A_{(0)}$ is $\mathcal{A}$ and the Courant $\mathcal{A}$-algebroid $A_{(1)}$ is isomorphic to $…
We first investigate the algebraic structure of vertex algebroids $B$ when $B$ are simple Leibniz algebras. Next, we use these vertex algebroids $B$ to construct indecomposable non-simple $C_2$-cofinite $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebras $\overline{V_B}$. In addition, we classify $\mathbb{N}$-graded irreducible $\overline{V_B}$-modules and examine conformal vectors of these $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebras $\overline{V_B}$.
A vertex-algebraic analogue of the Lie algebroid complex is constructed, which generalizes the "small" chiral de Rham complex on smooth manifolds. The notion of VSA-inductive sheaves is also introduced. This notion generalizes that of sheaves of vertex superalgebras. The complex mentioned above is constructed as a VSA-inductive sheaf. With this complex, the equivariant Lie algebroid cohomology is generalized to a vertex-algebraic analogue, which we call the chiral equivariant Lie algebroid cohomology. In fact, the notion of the equivariant Lie algebroid cohomology contains that of the equivari…
We present a classification of transitive vertex algebroids on a smooth variety X carried out in the spirit of Bressler's classification of Courant algebroids. In particular, we compute the class of the stack of transitive vertex algebroids. We define deformations of sheaves of twisted chiral differential operators introduced in \cite{AChM} and use the classification result to describe and classify such deformations. As a particular case, we obtain a localization of Wakimoto modules at non-critical level on flag manifolds.
We find a canonical quantization of Courant algebroids over Veronese rings. Part of our approach allows a semi-infinite cohomology interpretation, and the latter can be used to define sheaves of chiral differential operators on some homogeneous spaces including the space of pure spinors punctured at a point.
In this paper, we study an impact of Leibniz algebras on the algebraic structure of $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebras. We provide easy ways to characterize indecomposable non-simple $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebras $\oplus_{n=0}^{\infty}V_{(n)}$ such that $\dim V_{(0)}\geq 2$. Also, we examine the algebraic structure of $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebras $V=\oplus_{n=0}^{\infty}V_{(n)}$ such that $\dim~V_{(0)}\geq 2$ and $V_{(1)}$ is a (semi)simple Leibniz algebra that has $sl_2$ as its Levi factor. We show that under suitable conditions this type of vertex algebra is indecomposable but …
The main goals for this paper is i) to study of an algebraic structure of $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex algebras $V_B$ associated to vertex $A$-algebroids $B$ when $B$ are cyclic non-Lie left Leibniz algebras, and ii) to explore relations between the vertex algebras $V_B$ and the rank one Heisenberg vertex operator algebra. To achieve these goals, we first classify vertex $A$-algebroids $B$ associated to given cyclic non-Lie left Leibniz algebras $B$. Next, we use the constructed vertex $A$-algebroids $B$ to create a family of indecomposable non-simple vertex algebras $V_B$. Finally, we use the a…
We study the action of the inertia operator on the motivic Hall algebra, and prove that it is diagonalizable. This leads to a filtration of the Hall algebra, whose associated graded algebra is commutative. In particular, the degree 1 subspace forms a Lie algebra, which we call the Lie algebra of virtually indecomposable elements, following Joyce. We prove that the integral of virtually indecomposable elements admits an Euler characteristic specialization. In order to take advantage of the fact that our inertia groups are unit groups in algebras, we introduce the notion of algebroid.
Assuming the existence of the L-operators, we study the Hopf algebroid structure of U_{q,p}(B_N^{(1)}). As an application, we derive the type I and II vertex operators, which intertwine the U_{q,p}(B_N^{(1)})-modules of generic level, by assuming some analytic properties of the L-operators. For the level-1 case, we construct their free field realizations and show that the results satisfy the desired commutation relations with coefficients given by the elliptic dynamical R-matrices of the B_N^{(1)} type.
A commutative associative algebra $A$ over ${\mathbb C}$ with a derivation is one of the simplest examples of a vertex algebra. However, the differences between the modules for $A$ as a vertex algebra and the modules for $A$ as an associative algebra are not well understood. In this paper, I give the classification of finite-dimensional indecomposable untwisted or twisted modules for the polynomial ring in one variable over ${\mathbb C}$ as a vertex algebra.
A general method for constructing logarithmic modules in vertex operator algebra theory is presented. By utilizing this approach, we give explicit vertex operator construction of certain indecomposable and logarithmic modules for the triplet vertex algebra W(p) and for other subalgebras of lattice vertex algebras and their N=1 super extensions. We analyze in detail indecomposable modules obtained in this way, giving further evidence for the conjectural equivalence between the category of W(p)-modules and the category of modules for the restricted quantum group $\bar{\mathcal{U}}_q(sl_2)$ at ro…
This article is the first report of an ongoing project aimed at finding a geometric interpretation of the Witten genus and other tmf classes. Section 2 reviews the sheaves of chiral differential operators (CDOs) over a complex manifold, including their construction, obstructions and relation with the Witten genus. In section 3, the structure of each sheaf of CDOs is reorganized in terms of modules over the sheaf of holomorphic functions. This invokes the notion of a differential graded vertex algebroid. The construction of sheaves of CDOs is due to Gorbounov, Malikov and Schechtman, and so is …
Introducing an H-Hopf algebroid structure into U_{q,p}(\widedhat{sl}_2), we investigate the vertex operators of the elliptic quantum group U_{q,p}(\widedhat{sl}_2) defined as intertwining operators of infinite dimensional U_{q,p}(\widedhat{sl}_2)-modules. We show that the vertex operators coincide with the previous results obtained indirectly by using the quasi-Hopf algebra B_{q,λ}(\hat{sl}_2). This shows a consistency of our H-Hopf algebroid structure even in the case with non-zero central element.
Motivated by the study of indecomposable, nonsimple modules for a vertex operator algebra $V$, we study the relationship between various types of $V$-modules and modules for the higher level Zhu algebras for $V$, denoted $A_n(V)$, for $n \in \mathbb{N}$, first introduced by Dong, Li, and Mason in 1998. We resolve some issues that arise in a few theorems previously presented when these algebras were first introduced, and give examples illustrating the need for certain modifications of the statements of those theorems. We establish that whether or not $A_{n-1}(V)$ is isomorphic to a direct summa…
We define a quasiclassical limit of the Lian-Zuckerman homotopy BV algebra (quasiclassical LZ algebra) on the subcomplex, corresponding to "light modes", i.e. the elements of zero conformal weight, of the semi-infinite (BRST) cohomology complex of the Virasoro algebra associated with vertex operator algebra (VOA) with a formal parameter. We also construct a certain deformation of the BRST differential parametrized by a constant two-component tensor, such that it leads to the deformation of the $A_{\infty}$-subalgebra of the quasiclassical LZ algebra. Altogether this gives a functor the categor…
Let $G$ be a simple complex Lie group with Lie algebra $\mf g$ and let $\af$ be the affine Lie algebra. We use intertwining operators and Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations to construct a family of $\N$-graded vertex operator algebras associated to $\mf g$. They are $\af \oplus \af$-modules of dual levels $k, \bar k \notin \Q$ in the sense that $k + \bar k = -2 h^\vee$ where $h^\vee$ is the dual Coxeter number of $\mf g$. Its conformal weight 0 component is the algebra of regular functions on $G$. This family of vertex operator algebras were previously studied by Arkhipov-Gaitsgory and Gorbounov…
This is the first in a series of papers where we study logarithmic intertwining operators for various vertex subalgebras of Heisenberg vertex operator algebras. In this paper we examine logarithmic intertwining operators associated with rank one Heisenberg vertex operator algebra $M(1)_a$, of central charge $1-12a^2$. We classify these operators in terms of {\em depth} and provide explicit constructions in all cases. Furthermore, for $a=0$ we focus on the vertex operator subalgebra L(1,0) of $M(1)_0$ and obtain logarithmic intertwining operators among indecomposable Virasoro algebra modules. I…
Let $V$ be a simple vertex operator algebra containing a rank $n$ Heisenberg vertex algebra $H$ and let $C=\text{Com}\left( {H}, {V}\right)$ be the coset of ${H}$ in ${V}$. Assuming that the representation categories of interest are vertex tensor categories in the sense of Huang, Lepowsky and Zhang, a Schur-Weyl type duality for both simple and indecomposable but reducible modules is proven. Families of vertex algebra extensions of ${C}$ are found and every simple ${C}$-module is shown to be contained in at least one ${V}$-module. A corollary of this is that if ${V}$ is rational and $C_2$-cofi…
We study the triplet vertex operator algebra $\mathcal{W}(p)$ of central charge $1-\frac{6(p-1)^2}{p}$, $p \geq 2$. We show that $\trip$ is $C_2$-cofinite but irrational since it admits indecomposable and logarithmic modules. Furthermore, we prove that $\trip$ is of finite-representation type and we provide an explicit construction and classification of all irreducible $\mathcal{W}(p)$-modules and describe block decomposition of the category of ordinary $\trip$-modules. All this is done through an extensive use of Zhu's associative algebra together with explicit methods based on vertex operato…
The abelian and monoidal structure of the category of smooth weight modules over a non-integrable affine vertex algebra of rank greater than one is an interesting, difficult and essentially wide open problem. Even conjectures are lacking. This work details and tests such a conjecture for $L_{-\frac{3}{2}}(\mathfrak{sl}_3)$ via a logarithmic Kazhdan-Lusztig correspondence. We first investigate the representation theory of $\overline{U}^H_i(\mathfrak{sl}_3)$, the unrolled restricted quantum group of $\mathfrak{sl}_3$ at fourth root of unity. In particular, we analyse its finite-dimensional weigh…
The subject of our study is the Kazhdan-Lusztig (KL) equivalence in the context of a one-parameter family of logarithmic CFTs based on Virasoro symmetry with the (1,p) central charge. All finite-dimensional indecomposable modules of the KL-dual quantum group - the "full" Lusztig quantum sl(2) at the root of unity - are explicitly described. These are exhausted by projective modules and four series of modules that have a functorial correspondence with any quotient or a submodule of Feigin-Fuchs modules over the Virasoro algebra. Our main result includes calculation of tensor products of any pai…
The rank 1 bosonic ghost vertex algebra, also known as the $βγ$ ghosts, symplectic bosons or Weyl vertex algebra, is a simple example of a conformal field theory which is neither rational, nor $C_2$-cofinite. We identify a module category, denoted category $\mathscr{F}$, which satisfies three necessary conditions coming from conformal field theory considerations: closure under restricted duals, closure under fusion and closure under the action of the modular group on characters. We prove the second of these conditions, with the other two already being known. Further, we show that category $\ma…
