Completely fixed point free isometry and cyclic orbifold of lattice vertex operator algebras

We continue our study of cyclic orbifolds of lattice vertex operator algebras and their full automorphism groups. We consider some special isometry $g\in O(L)$ such that $g^i$ is fixed point free on $L$ for any $1\leq i\leq |g|-1$. We show that when $L_2=\emptyset$ and $g^i$ is fixed point free on $L$ for any $1\leq i\leq |g|-1$, $V_L^{\hat{g}}$ has extra automorphisms implies either (1) the order of $g$ is a prime or (2) $L$ is isometric to the Leech lattice or some coinvariant sublattices of the Leech lattice.

Fourvolutions and automorphism groups of orbifold lattice vertex operator algebras

Let $L$ be an even positive definite lattice with no roots, i.e., $L(2)=\{x\in L\mid (x|x)=2\}=\emptyset$. Let $g\in O(L)$ be an isometry of order $4$ such that $g^2=-1$ on $L$. In this article, we determine the full automorphism group of the orbifold vertex operator algebra $V_L^{\hat{g}}$. As our main result, we show that $Aut(V_L^{\hat{g}})$ is isomorphic to $N_{Aut(V_L)}(\langle \hat{g}\rangle)/ \langle\hat{g}\rangle $ unless $L\cong \sqrt{2}E_8$ or $BW_{16}$.

$\Z_3$-orbifold construction of the Moonshine vertex operator algebra and some maximal $3$-local subgroups of the Monster

In this article, we describe some maximal $3$-local subgroups of the Monster simple group using vertex operator algebras (VOA). We first study the holomorphic vertex operator algebra obtained by applying the orbifold construction to the Leech lattice vertex operator algebra and a lift of a fixed-point free isometry of order $3$ of the Leech lattice. We also consider some of its special subVOAs and study their stabilizer subgroups using the symmetries of the subVOAs. It turns out that these stabilizer subgroups are $3$-local subgroups of its full automorphism group. As one of our main results, we show that its full automorphism group is isomorphic to the Monster simple group by using a $3$-local characterization and that the holomorphic VOA is isomorphic to the Moonshine VOA. This approach allows us to obtain relatively explicit descriptions of two maximal $3$-local subgroups of the shape $3^{1+12}.2.\Suz{:}2$ and $3^8.Ω^-(8,3).2$ in the Monster simple group.

Quantum dimensions and fusion rules of the VOA $ V^τ_{L_{C \times D}}$

In this article, we determine quantum dimensions and fusion rules for the orbifold code VOA $ V^τ_{L_{C \times D}}$. As an application, we also construct certain $3$-local subgroups inside the automorphism group of the VOA $V^\sharp$, where $V^\sharp$ is a holomorphic VOA obtained by the $\mathbb{Z}_3$-orbifold construction on the Leech lattice VOA.

Weyl groups and vertex operator algebras generated by Ising vectors satisfying $(2B,3C)$ condition

In this article, we construct explicitly certain moonshine type vertex operator algebras generated by a set of Ising vectors $I$ such that (1) for any $e\neq f\in I$, the subVOA $\mathrm{VOA}(e,f)$ generated by $e$ and $f$ is isomorphic to either $U_{2B}$ or $U_{3C}$; and (2)the subgroup generated by the corresponding Miyamoto involutions $\{τ_e|\,e\in I\}$ is isomorphic to the Weyl group of a root system of type $A_n$, $D_n$, $E_6$, $E_7$ or $E_8$. The structures of the corresponding vertex operator algebras and their Griess algebras are also studied. In particular, the central charge of these vertex operator algebras are determined.

On Majorana representations of the group $3^2{:}2$ of 3C-pure type and the corresponding vertex operator algebras

In this article, we study Griess algebras and vertex operator subalgebras generated by Ising vectors in a moonshine type VOA such that the subgroup generated by the corresponding Miyamoto involutions has the shape $3^2{:}2$ and any two Ising vectors generate a 3C subVOA $U_{3C}$. We show that such a Griess algebra is uniquely determined, up to isomorphisms. The structure of the corresponding vertex operator algebra is also discussed. In addition, we give a construction of such a VOA inside the lattice VOA $V_{E_8^3}$, which gives an explicit example for Majorana representations of the group $3^2{:}2$ of 3C-pure type.
