Bosonic ghostbusting: the bosonic ghost vertex algebra admits a logarithmic module category with rigid fusion

R Allen, S Wood - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2022 - Springer
The rank 1 bosonic ghost vertex algebra, also known as the β γ ghosts, symplectic bosons or
Weyl vertex algebra, is a simple example of a conformal field theory which is neither rational …

Twisted vertex algebras, bicharacter construction and boson-fermion correspondences

II Anguelova - Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2013 - pubs.aip.org
The boson-fermion correspondences are an important phenomena on the intersection of

Free field realisation of boundary vertex algebras for Abelian gauge theories in three dimensions

C Beem, AEV Ferrari - arXiv preprint arXiv:2304.11055, 2023 - arxiv.org
We study the boundary vertex algebras of $ A $-twisted $\mathcal {N}= 4$ Abelian gauge
theories in three dimensions. These are identified with the BRST quotient (semi-infinite …

Ghost systems: a vertex algebra point of view

W Eholzer, L Feher, A Honecker - Nuclear Physics B, 1998 - Elsevier
Fermionic and bosonic ghost systems are defined each in terms of a single vertex algebra
which admits a one-parameter family of conformal structures. The observation that these …

algebra, algebra, and Friedan–Martinec–Shenker bosonization

W Wang - Communications in mathematical physics, 1998 - Springer
We show that the vertex algebra with central charge− 1 is isomorphic to a tensor product of
the simple algebra with central charge− 2 and a Heisenberg vertex algebra generated by a …

Braided Tensor Categories Related to Vertex Algebras

J Auger, T Creutzig, S Kanade, M Rupert - … in Mathematical Physics, 2020 - Springer
The B _ p B p-algebras are a family of vertex operator algebras parameterized by p ∈ Z _ ≥
2 p∈ Z≥ 2. They are important examples of logarithmic CFTs and appear as chiral algebras …

The tensor structure on the representation category of the triplet algebra

We study the braided monoidal structure that the fusion product induces on the Abelian
category $\mathcal {W} _p $-mod, the category of representations of the triplet W-algebra …

Twisted logarithmic modules of vertex algebras

B Bakalov - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2016 - Springer
Motivated by logarithmic conformal field theory and Gromov–Witten theory, we introduce a
notion of a twisted module of a vertex algebra under an arbitrary (not necessarily …

Duality structures for module categories of vertex operator algebras and the Feigin Fuchs boson

R Allen, S Lentner, C Schweigert, S Wood - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2021 - arxiv.org

that endows suitably chosen module categories with the structure of braided monoidal …

Lagrangian approach to sheaves of vertex algebras

F Malikov - Communications in mathematical physics, 2008 - Springer
We explain how sheaves of vertex algebras are related to mathematical structures encoded
by a class of Lagrangians. The exposition is focused on two examples: the WZW model and …
