Fusion rules and rigidity for weight modules over the simple admissible affine $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ and $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal vertex operator superalgebras

We prove that the categories of weight modules over the simple $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ and $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal vertex operator algebras at fractional admissible levels and central charges are rigid (and hence the categories of weight modules are braided ribbon categories) and that the decomposition formulae of fusion products of simple projective modules conjectured by Thomas Creutzig, David Ridout and collaborators hold (including when the decomposition involves summands that are indecomposable yet not simple). In addition to solving this old open problem, we develop new techniques for the construction of intertwining operators by means of integrating screening currents over certain cycles, which are expected to be of independent interest, due to their applicability to many other algebras. In the example of $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ these new techniques allow us to give explicit formulae for a logarithmic intertwining operator from a pair of simple projective modules to the projective cover of the tensor unit, namely, the vertex operator algebra as a module over itself.

Graded pseudo-traces for strongly interlocked modules for a vertex operator algebra and applications

We define the notion of {\it strongly interlocked} for indecomposable generalized modules for a vertex operator algebra, and show that the notion of graded pseudo-trace is well defined for modules which satisfy this property in certain settings. We prove that in these settings the graded pseudo-trace is a symmetric linear operator that satisfies the logarithmic derivative property. As an application, we prove that all the indecomposable reducible generalized modules for the rank one Heisenberg (one free boson) vertex operator algebras are strongly interlocked, independent of the choice of conformal vector and have well-defined graded pseudo-traces. We also completely characterize which indecomposable reducible generalized modules for the universal Virasoro vertex operator algebras induced from the level zero Zhu algebra are strongly interlocked. In particular, we prove that the universal Virasoro vertex operator algebra with central charge $c$ has modules induced from the level zero Zhu algebra with conformal weight $h$ that are strongly interlocked if and only if either $(c,h)$ is outside the extended Kac table, or the central charge is either $c = 1$ or $25$, the conformal weight satisfies a certain property, and the level zero Zhu algebra module being induced is determined by a Jordan block of size less than a certain specified parameter. We prove that all these modules for the universal Virasoro vertex operator algebra that are strongly interlocked have well-defined graded pseudo-traces. We give several examples of graded pseudo-traces for these Heisenberg and Virasoro strongly interlocked modules.

On mode transition algebras for $\mathbb{Z}$-graded vertex algebras and applications to bosonic ghosts

We study the mode transition algebras and Zhu algebras in the setting of $\mathbb{Z}$-graded vertex algebras, with particular focus on the Weyl vertex algebra at central charge 2 (also known as bosonic ghosts or the $βγ$-system). We show that the mode transition algebras of the Weyl vertex algebra at central charge 2 admit unity elements that form a family of strong unities in the sense of Damiolini-Gibney-Krashen. The existence of unities for the mode transition algebra of the Weyl vertex algebra at central charge 2 allows us to explicitly construct all higher level Zhu algebras of the Weyl vertex algebra at central charge 2. We further analyze weak modules of the Weyl vertex algebra at central charge 2 induced from Zhu algebras, proving that every such module is already induced from the level-zero Zhu algebra. We then prove that all indecomposable reducible weight modules induced from a Zhu algebra are not weakly interlocked, and hence not strongly interlocked in the sense of Barron-Batistelli-Orosz Hunziker-Yamskulna. More generally, we show that the property of being weakly interlocked is preserved under the action of an invertible Li's $\mathbfΔ$ operator. As an application, we prove that all indecomposable reducible weight modules of the Weyl vertex algebra at central charge 2 obtained via spectral flow of Zhu-induced modules are likewise not weakly interlocked. These results clarify the role of being weakly interlocked in the modularity properties of bosonic ghost modules previously studied by Ridout-Wood and Allen-Wood.

$N=1$ super Virasoro tensor categories

We show that the category of $C_1$-cofinite modules for the universal $N=1$ super Virasoro vertex operator superalgebra $\mathcal{S}(c,0)$ at any central charge $c$ is locally finite and admits the vertex algebraic braided tensor category structure of Huang-Lepowsky-Zhang. For central charges $c^{\mathfrak{ns}}(t)=\frac{15}{2}-3(t+t^{-1})$ with $t\notin\mathbb{Q}$, we show that this tensor category is semisimple, rigid, and slightly degenerate, and we determine its fusion rules. For central charge $c^{\mathfrak{ns}}(1)=\frac{3}{2}$, we show that this tensor category is rigid and that its simple modules have the same fusion rules as $\mathrm{Rep}\,\mathfrak{osp}(1\vert 2)$, in agreement with earlier fusion rule calculations of Milas. Finally, for the remaining central charges $c^{\mathfrak{ns}}(t)$ with $t\in \mathbb{Q}^\times$, we show that the simple $\mathcal{S}(c^{\mathfrak{ns}}(t),0)$-module $\mathcal{S}_{2,2}$ of lowest conformal weight $h^{\mathfrak{ns}}_{2,2}(t)=\frac{3(t-1)^2}{8t}$ is rigid and self-dual, except possibly when $t^{\pm 1}$ is a negative integer or when $c^{\mathfrak{ns}}(t)$ is the central charge of a rational $N=1$ superconformal minimal model. As $\mathcal{S}_{2,2}$ is expected to generate the category of $C_1$-cofinite $\mathcal{S}(c^{\mathfrak{ns}}(t),0)$-modules under fusion, rigidity of $\mathcal{S}_{2,2}$ is the first key step to proving rigidity of this category for general $t\in\mathbb{Q}^\times$.

On rationality of $\mathbb{C}$-graded vertex algebras and applications to Weyl vertex algebras under conformal flow

Using the Zhu algebra for a certain category of $\mathbb{C}$-graded vertex algebras $V$, we prove that if $V$ is finitely $Ω$-generated and satisfies suitable grading conditions, then $V$ is rational, i.e. has semi-simple representation theory, with one dimensional level zero Zhu algebra. Here $Ω$ denotes the vectors in $V$ that are annihilated by lowering the real part of the grading. We apply our result to the family of rank one Weyl vertex algebras with conformal element $ω_μ$ parameterized by $μ\in \mathbb{C}$, and prove that for certain non-integer values of $μ$, these vertex algebras, which are non-integer graded, are rational, with one dimensional level zero Zhu algebra. In addition, we generalize this result to appropriate $\mathbb{C}$-graded Weyl vertex algebras of arbitrary ranks.

Tensor Categories arising from the Virasoro Algebra

We show that there is a braided tensor category structure on the category of $C_1$-cofinite modules for the (universal or simple) Virasoro vertex operator algebras of arbitrary central charge. In the generic case of central charge $c=13-6(t+t^{-1})$, with $t \notin \mathbb{Q}$, we prove semisimplicity, rigidity and non-degeneracy and also compute the fusion rules of this tensor category.

Fusion rules for the Virasoro algebra of central charge 25

Let $\mathcal{F}_{25}$ be the family of irreducible highest weight modules for the Virasoro algebra of central charge $25$ which are not isomorphic to Verma modules. Let $L(25,0)$ be the Virasoro vertex operator algebra of central charge 25. We prove that the fusion rules for the $L(25,0)$-modules in $\mathcal{F}_{25}$ are in correspondence with the tensor rules for the irreducible finite dimensional representations of $sl(2, \mathbb{C})$, extending the known correspondence between modules for the Virasoro algebras of dual central charges 1 and 25.
