We prove that a Lie conformal algebra L with bounded locality function is embeddable into an associative conformal algebra A with the same bound on the locality function. If L is nilpotent, then so is A, and the nilpotency index remains the same. We also give a list of open questions concerning the embedding of Lie conformal algebras into associative conformal.
Any variety of classical algebras has a so-called conformal counterpart. For example one can consider Lie conformal or associative conformal algebras. Lie conformal algebras are closely related to vertex algebras. We define free objects in the categories of conformal and vertex algebras. In some cases we can explicitly build their Groebner bases.
In this article, we first give a short introduction to conformal algebras. Then we present three families of simple conformal algebras finite growth generated by simple Jordan algebras of types A, B, C.
In this paper, we introduce two kinds of Lie conformal algebras associated with the loop Schrödinger-Virasoro Lie algebra and the extended loop Schrödinger-Virasoro Lie algebra, respectively. The conformal derivations, the second cohomology groups of these two conformal algebras are completely determined. And nontrivial free conformal modules of rank one and Z-graded free intermediate series modules over these two conformal algebras are also classified in the present paper
Associative conformal algebras of conformal endomorphisms are of essential importance for the study of finite representations of conformal Lie algebras (Lie vertex algebras). We describe all semisimple algebras of conformal endomorphisms which have the trivial second Hochschild cohomology group with coefficients in every conformal bimodule. As a consequence, we state a complete solution of the radical splitting problem in the class of associative conformal algebras with a finite faithful representation.
In this note, we observe a relation between dialgebras (in particular, Leibniz algebras) and conformal algebras. The purpose is to show how the methods of conformal algebras help solving problems on dialgebras, and, conversely, how the ideas of dialgebras work for conformal algebras.
This note is to show the effectiveness of the notion of pseudoalgebra in the theory of conformal algebras. We adduce very simple construction of free associative conformal algebra and find its linear basis. There is no any new result but we hope that the technique could be useful for further development of the theory of conformal algebras and pseudoalgebras.
We present an approach to the computation of confluent systems of defining relations in associative conformal algebras based on the similar technique for modules over ordinary associative algebras.
The Lie conformal algebra of loop Virasoro algebra, denoted by $\mathscr{CW}$, is introduced in this paper. Explicitly, $\mathscr{CW}$ is a Lie conformal algebra with $\mathbb{C}[\partial]$-basis $\{L_i\,|\,i\in\mathbb{C}\}$ and $λ$-brackets $[L_i\, {}_λ\, L_j]=(-\partial-2λ) L_{i+j}$. Then conformal derivations of $\mathscr{CW}$ are determined. Finally, rank one conformal modules and $\mathbb{Z}$-graded free intermediate series modules over $\mathscr{CW}$ are classified.
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 $\overline{V_B}$.

Conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields in conformal field theory. On the other hand, it is an adequate tool for the study of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras satisfying the locality property. The main examples of such Lie algebras are those ``based'' on the punctured complex plane, like the Virasoro algebra and loop algebras. In the present paper we develop a cohomology theory of conformal algebras with coefficients in an arbitrary module. It possesses standard properties of cohomology theories; for example, it describes extensions and…
In this paper we use Lie conformal algebras to realize some moonshine type VOAs, whose Greiss algebras are Jordan algebras. On the other hand, we consider some free fields which realizes the corresponding simple VOAs. As an application, we can calculate the correlation functions of these VOAs in a relatively easy way.
Herein we study conformal vectors of a Z-graded vertex algebra of (strong) CFT type. We prove that the full vertex algebra automorphism group transitively acts on the set of the conformal vectors of strong CFT type if the vertex algebra is simple. The statement is equivalent to the uniqueness of self-dual vertex operator algebra structures of a simple vertex algebra. As an application, we show that the full vertex algebra automorphism group of a simple vertex operator algebra of strong CFT type uniquely decomposes into the product of certain two subgroups and the vertex operator algebra automo…

In this note we show a close relation between the following objects: Classical Yang -- Baxter equation (CYBE), conformal algebras (also known as vertex Lie algebras), and averaging operators on Lie algebras. It turns out that the singular part of a solution of CYBE (in the operator form) on a Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ determines an averaging operator on the corresponding current conformal algebra $\mathrm{Cur} \mathfrak g$. For a finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, we describe all homogeneous averaging operators on $\mathrm{Cur}\mathfrak g$. It turns out that all these ope…
Let $R$ be a Lie conformal algebra. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the conformal derivation algebra $CDer(R)$, the conformal quasiderivation algebra $QDer(R)$ and the generalized conformal derivation algebra $GDer(R)$. The generalized conformal derivation algebra is a natural generalization of the conformal derivation algebra. Obviously, we have the following tower $CDer(R)\subseteq QDer(R)\subseteq GDer(R)\subseteq gc(R)$, where $gc(R)$ is the general Lie conformal algebra. Furthermore, we mainly research the connection of these generalized conformal derivations. Finally, the con…
Lie conformal algebras appear in the theory of vertex algebras. Their relation is similar to that of Lie algebras and their universal enveloping algebras. Associative conformal algebras play a role in conformal representation theory. We introduce the notions of conformal identity and unital associative conformal algebras and classify finitely generated simple unital associative conformal algebras of linear growth. These are precisely the complete algebras of conformal endomorphisms of finite modules.
Lie conformal algebras are useful tools for studying vertex operator algebras and their representations. In this paper, we establish close relations between Poisson conformal algebras and representations of Lie conformal algebras. We also calculate explicitly Poisson conformal brackets on the associated graded conformal algebras of universal associative conformal envelopes of Virasoro conformal algebra and Neveu--Schwartz conformal superalgebra.
Lie conformal algebras $\mathcal{W}(a,b)$ are the semi-direct sums of Virasoro Lie conformal algebra and its nontrivial conformal modules of rank one. In this paper, we first give a complete classification of all finite nontrivial irreducible conformal modules of $\mathcal{W}(a,b)$. It is shown that all such modules are of rank one. Moreover, with a similar method, all finite nontrivial irreducible conformal modules of Schrödinger-Virasoro type Lie conformal algebras $TSV(a,b)$ and $TSV(c)$ are characterized.
In this paper, we study a class of Leibniz conformal algebras called quadratic Leibniz conformal algebras. An equivalent characterization of a Leibniz conformal algebra $R=\mathbb{C}[\partial]V$ through three algebraic operations on $V$ are given. By this characterization, several constructions of quadratic Leibniz conformal algebras are presented. Moreover, one-dimensional central extensions of quadratic Leibniz conformal algebras are considered using some bilinear forms on $V$. In particular, we also study one-dimensional Leibniz central extensions of quadratic Lie conformal algebras.
We prove a finite torsion-free associative conformal algebra to have a finite faithful conformal representation. As a corollary, it is shown that one may join a conformal unit to such an algebra. Some examples are stated to demonstrate that a conformal unit can not be joined to any torsion-free associative conformal algebra. In particular, there exist associative conformal algebras of linear growth and even locally finite ones that have no finite faithful representation. We also consider the problem of existence of a finite faithful representation for a torsion-free finite Lie conformal algebr…
In this note, we introduce a class of algebras that are in some sense related to conformal algebras. This class (called TC-algebras) includes Weyl algebras and some of their (associative and Lie) subalgebras. By a conformal algebra we generally mean what is known as $H$-pseudo-algebra over the polynomial Hopf algebra $H=\Bbbk[T_1,..., T_n]$. Some recent results in structure theory of conformal algebras are applied to get a description of TC-algebras.
Conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion (or rather its Fourier transform) of chiral fields in a conformal field theory. This is a review of recent developments in the subject.
I give a short proof of the following algebraic statement: if a vertex algebra is simple, then its underlying Lie conformal algebra is either abelian, or it is an irreducible central extension of a simple Lie conformal algebra.
We classify unital associative conformal algebras of linear growth and provide new examples of such.
We prove that a finite torsion-free conformal Lie algebra with a splitting solvable radical has a finite faithful conformal representation.
For a given conformal algebra $C$, we write down the correspondence between identities of the coefficient algebra $\Coeff C$ and identities of $C$ itself as of pseudoalgebra. In particular, we write down the defining relations of Jordan, alternative and Mal'cev conformal algebras, and show that the analogue of Artin's Theorem does not hold for alternative conformal algebras.
Conformal Lie 2-algebras and conformal omni-Lie algebras
本文引入并研究了共形李2-代数与共形全李代数的概念，证明了共形李2-代数范畴与2项共形$L_{\infty}$-代数范畴等价，并从共形全李代数和莱布尼茨共形代数构造了共形李2-代数。
In this paper, we consider graded associative conformal algebras. The class of these objects includes pseudo-algebras over non-cocommutative Hopf algebras of regular functions on some linear algebraic groups. In particular, an associative conformal algebra which is graded by a finite group $Γ$ is a pseudo-algebra over the coordinate Hopf algebra of a linear algebraic group $G$ such that the identity component $G^0$ is the affine line and $G/G^0\simeq Γ$. A classification of simple and semisimple graded associative conformal algebras of finite type is obtained.
We describe all irreducible conformal subalgebras of Cend_N. The classification of simple and semisimple associative conformal algebras with finite faithful representation follows from this description.
We classify all finite growth representations of all infinite rank subalgebras of the Lie conformal algebra gc_1 that contain a Virasoro subalgebra.
$Γ$-conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields with simple poles at finitely many points. We classify these algebras and their representations in terms of Lie algebras and their representations with an action of the group $Γ$. To every $Γ$-conformal algebra and a character of $Γ$ we associate a Lie algebra generated by fields with the OPE with simple poles. Examples include twisted affine Kac-Moody algebras, the sin algebra (which is a ``$Γ$-conformal'' analodue of the general linear algebra) and its analogues, the algebra of pseudodifferen…
We construct the representation of Double Affine Hecke Algebra whose symmetrization gives the center of the quantum group U_q(sl(2)) and by Kazhdan--Lusztig duality the Verlinde algebra of (1,p) models of logarithmic conformal field theory.
We study the algebra of conformal endomorphisms $\Cend^{G,G}_n$ of a finitely generated free module $M_n$ over the coordinate Hopf algebra $H$ of a linear algebraic group $G$. It is shown that a conformal subalgebra of $\Cend_n$ acting irreducibly on $M_n$ generates an essential left ideal of $\Cend^{G,G}_n$ if enriched with operators of multiplication on elements of $H$. In particular, we describe such subalgebras for the case when $G$ is finite.
Let $G$ be a filtered Lie conformal algebra whose associated graded conformal algebra is isomorphic to that of general conformal algebra $gc_1$. In this paper, we prove that $G\cong gc_1$ or ${\rm gr\,}gc_1$ (the associated graded conformal algebra of $gc_1$), by making use of some results on the second cohomology groups of the conformal algebra $\fg$ with coefficients in its module $M_{b,0}$ of rank 1, where $\fg=\Vir\ltimes M_{a,0}$ is the semi-direct sum of the Virasoro conformal algebra $\Vir$ with its module $M_{a,0}$. Furthermore, we prove that ${\rm gr\,}gc_1$ does not have a nontrivial…
In this paper, we first recall the notion of (noncommutative) Poisson conformal algebras and describe some constructions of them. Then we study the formal distribution (noncommutative) Poisson algebras and coefficient (noncommutative) Poisson algebras. Next, we introduce the notion of conformal formal deformations of commutative associative conformal algebras and show that Poisson conformal algebras are the corresponding semi-classical limits. At last, we develop the cohomology theory of noncommutative Poisson conformal algebras and use this cohomology to study their deformations.
In this note we present a more detailed and explicit exposition of the definition of a conformal representation of a Leibniz algebra. Recall (arXiv:math/0611501v3) that Leibniz algebras are exactly Lie dialgebras. The idea is based on the general fact that every dialgebra that belongs to a variety $\Var $ can be embedded into a conformal algebra of the same variety. In particular, we prove that an arbitrary (finite dimensional) Leibniz algebra has a (finite) faithful conformal representation. As a corollary, we deduce the analogue of the PBW-theorem for Leibniz algebras.
We show that the action of the special conformal transformations of the usual (undeformed) conformal group is the $q\to 1$ scaling limit of the braided adjoint action or $R$-commutator of $q$-Minkowski space on itself. We also describe the $q$-deformed conformal algebra in $R$-matrix form and its quasi-$*$ structure.
For a given variety Var of algebras we define the variety Var of dialgebras. This construction turns to be closely related with varieties of pseudo-algebras: every Var-dialgebra can be embedded into an appropriate pseudo-algebra of the variety Var. In particular, Leibniz algebras are exactly Lie dialgebras, and every Leibniz algebra can be embedded into current Lie conformal algebra.
In this paper, two new classes of Schrödinger-Virasoro type Lie conformal algebras TSV(a,b) and TSV(c) which are non-simple are introduced for some a, b, c\in \mathbb{C}. Moreover, central extensions, conformal derivations and free conformal modules of rank 1 of TSV(a,b) and TSV(c) are determined.
Based on any chiral vertex operator algebra satisfying a suitable finiteness condition, the semisimplicity of the zero-mode algebra as well as a regularity for induced modules, we construct conformal field theory over the projective line with the chiral vertex operator algebra as symmetries of the theory. We appropriately generalize the argument in [TUY] so that we are able to define sheaves of conformal blocks for chiral vertex operator algebras and study them in detail. We prove the factorization theorem under the fairly general conditions for chiral vertex operator algebras and the zero-mod…
We present explicit global constructions - avoiding power series - of certain chiral CFTs, including current algebras on the projective line. We outline an approach to vertex algebras, inspired by this construction. We construct natural pairings on state spaces.
The aim of this paper is to study a Lie conformal algebra of Block type. In this paper, conformal derivation, conformal module of rank 1 and low-dimensional comohology of the Lie conformal algebra of Block type are studied. Also, the vertex Poisson algebra structure associated with the Lie conformal algebra of Block type is constructed.
We investigate an analogue of the Wedderburn principal theorem for associative conformal algebras with finite faithful representations. It is shown that the radical splitting property for an algebra of this kind holds if the maximal semisimple factor of this algebra is unital, but does not hold in general.
In this paper, we introduce the notions of crossed module of associative conformal algebras, 2-term strongly homotopy associative conformal algebras, and discuss the relationship between them and the 3-th Hochschild cohomology of associative conformal algebras. We classify the non-abelian extensions by introducing the non-abelian cohomology. We show that non-abelian extensions of an associative conformal algebra can be viewed as Maurer-Cartan elements of a suitable differential graded Lie algebra, and prove that the Deligne groupoid of this differential graded Lie algebra corresponds one to on…
In this paper, simplicity of quadratic Lie conformal algebras are investigated. From the point view of the corresponding Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras, some sufficient conditions and necessary conditions to ensure simplicity of quadratic Lie conformal algebras are presented. By these observations, we present several classes of new infinite simple Lie conformal algebras. These results will be useful for classification purposes.
We present recent progress in theory of local conformal nets which is an operator algebraic approach to study chiral conformal field theory. We emphasize representation theoretic aspects and relations to theory of vertex operator algebras which gives a different and algebraic formulation of chiral conformal field theory.
We classify certain non-linear Lie conformal algebras with three generators, which can be viewed as deformations of the current Lie conformal algebra of sl_2. In doing so we discover an interesting 1-parameter family of non-linear Lie conformal algebras R_{-1}^d and the corresponding freely generated vertex algebras V_{-1}^d, which includes for d=1 the affine vertex algebra of sl_2 at the critical level k=-2. We construct free-field realizations of the algebras V_{-1}^d extending the Wakimoto realization of the affine vertex algebra of sl_2 at the critical level, and we compute their Zhu algeb…
A quadratic Lie conformal algebra corresponds to a Hamiltonian pair in \cite{GD}, which plays fundamental roles in completely integrable systems. Moreover, it also corresponds to certain compatible pairs of a Lie algebra and a Novikov algebra which was called Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebra by Xu in \cite{X1}. In this paper, central extensions and conformal derivations of quadratic Lie conformal algebras are studied in terms of Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. It is shown that central extensions and conformal derivations of a quadratic Lie conformal algebra are related with some bilinear forms and some…
This paper is a continuation to understand Heisenberg vertex algebras in terms of moduli spaces of their conformal structures. We study the moduli space of the conformal structures on a Heisenberg vertex algebra that have the standard fixed conformal gradation. As we know in Proposition 3.1 in Sect.3, conformal vectors of the Heisenberg vertex algebra $V_{\hatη}(1,0)$ that have the standard fixed conformal gradation is parameterized by a complex vector $h$ of its weight-one subspace. First, we classify all such conformal structures of the Heisenberg vertex algebra $V_{\hatη}(1,0)$ by describin…
We describe the construction of the genus-zero parts of conformal field theories in the sense of G. Segal from representations of vertex operator algebras satisfying certain conditions. The construction is divided into four steps and each step gives a mathematical structure of independent interest. These mathematical structures are intertwining operator algebras, genus-zero modular functors, genus-zero holomorphic weakly conformal field theories, and genus-zero conformal field theories.
It is known that there are 48 Virasoro algebras acting on the monster conformal field theory. We call conformal field theories with such a property, which are not necessarily chiral, code conformal field theories. In this paper, we introduce a notion of a framed algebra, which is a finite-dimensional non-associative algebra, and showed that the category of framed algebras and the category of code conformal field theories are equivalent. We have also constructed a new family of integrable conformal field theories using this equivalence. These conformal field theories are expected to be useful f…
We classify all the Heisenberg and conformal vectors and determine the full automorphism group of the free bosonic vertex algebra without gradation. To describe it we introduce a notion of inner automorphisms of a vertex algebra.
The conformal extension of the BMS$_{3}$ algebra is constructed. Apart from an infinite number of 'superdilatations,' in order to incorporate 'superspecial conformal transformations,' the commutator of the latter with supertranslations strictly requires the presence of nonlinear terms in the remaining generators. The algebra appears to be very rigid, in the sense that its central extensions as well as the nonlinear terms coefficients become determined by the central charge of the Virasoro subalgebra. The wedge algebra corresponds to the conformal group in three spacetime dimensions $SO(3,2)$, …
We find a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the tensor product of modules over a Lie conformal algebra. We provide two algebraic constructions of the tensor product. We show the relation between tensor product and conformal linear maps. We prove commutativity of the tensor product.
We give a general criterion for conformal embeddings of vertex operator algebras associated to affine Lie algebras at arbitrary levels. Using that criterion, we construct new conformal embeddings at admissible rational and negative integer levels. In particular, we construct all remaining conformal embeddings associated to automorphisms of Dynkin diagrams of simple Lie algebras. The semisimplicity of the corresponding decompositions is obtained by using the concept of fusion rules for vertex operator algebras.
In this paper, we construct a bialgebra theory for associative conformal algebras, namely antisymmetric infinitesimal conformal bialgebras. On the one hand, it is an attempt to give conformal structures for antisymmetric infinitesimal bialgebras. On the other hand, under certain conditions, such structures are equivalent to double constructions of Frobenius conformal algebras, which are associative conformal algebras that are decomposed into the direct sum of another associative conformal algebra and its conformal dual as $\mathbb{C}[\partial]$-modules such that both of them are subalgebras an…
Classical invariants for representations of one Lie group can often be related to invariants of some other Lie group. Physics suggests that the right objects to consider for these questions are certain refinements of classical invariants known as conformal blocks. Conformal blocks appear in algebraic geometry as spaces of global sections of line bundles on the moduli stack of parabolic bundles on a smooth curve. Rank-level duality connects a conformal block associated to one Lie algebra to a conformal block for a different Lie algebra. In this paper we prove a rank-level duality for type so(2r…
We discuss some basic problems and conjectures in a program to construct general orbifold conformal field theories using the representation theory of vertex operator algebras. We first review a program to construct conformal field theories. We also clarify some misunderstandings on vertex operator algebras, modular functors and intertwining operator algebras. Then we discuss some basic open problems and conjectures in mathematical orbifold conformal field theory. Generalized twisted modules and their variants, their constructions and some existence results are reviewed. Twisted intertwining op…
