Title:On certain vertex operator algebras associated to Jordan algebras

Time: Fri, May.25, 2018 , PM:2:30-3:30.

Location: Room 4318, Building No.4, Wushan Campus

Abstract:

    In this talk we discuss some VOAs (vertex operator algebras), whose Greiss algebras are Hermitian Jordan algebras. Some earlier constructions were given by Lam, Ashihara, and Miyamoto, and we construct some more examples. We analyze their structures and study their simplicities. If time permits, we also discuss the simple quotientsand character formulas of these VOAs.
