Higher genus affine algebras of Krichever - Novikov type

Abstract

For higher genus multi-point current algebras of Krichever-Novikov type associated to a finite-dimensional Lie algebra, local Lie algebra two-cocycles are studied. They yield as central extensions almost-graded higher genus affine Lie algebras. In case that the Lie algebra is reductive a complete classification is given. For a simple Lie algebra, like in the classical situation, there is up to equivalence and rescaling only one non-trivial almost-graded central extension. The classification is extended to the algebras of meromorphic differential operators of order less or equal one on the currents algebra.

Graded Necklace Lie Bialgebras and Batalin-Vilkovisky Formalism

An involutive Lie bialgebra induces a Batalin-Vilkovisky operator on its exterior algebra. We introduce a graded generalization of the necklace Lie bialgebra, which depends on a choice of a quiver $Q$. We relate the resulting Batalin-Vilkovisky structure to the Batalin-Vilkovisky structure coming from a degree $-1$ symplectic form on a suitably defined representation variety of the quiver $Q$. The morphism intertwining these Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras will be given by a twisted trace, recovering the usual (super)trace and the odd trace.

Freeness and divisibility for right $H$-simple left $H$-comodule algebras over a pointed Hopf algebra $H$

Let $H$ be a pointed Hopf algebra and let $A$ be a right $H$-simple left $H$-comodule algebra. We show that every relative $(H,A)$-Hopf module is free as an $A$-module and that this freeness characterizes the class of pointed Hopf algebras. We give a criterion for the category of relative $(H,A)$-Hopf modules to be semisimple. We also show that $A$ can be embedded into a left $H$-comodule algebra of a specific form when $H$ and $A$ are $\mathbb{N}_0$-graded. As a consequence, we prove that if $H$ is finite-dimensional and $A^{\mathrm{co} H}=\Bbbk$, then $A$ is finite-dimensional and $\dim A$ divides $\dim H$.

$C_2$-Cofiniteness and Rationality of the Icosahedral Orbifold $V_{L_2}^{A_5}$

Let $L_2=\mathbb{Z}α$ be the rank-one root lattice with $(α,α)=2$, and let $A_5$ act on the lattice vertex operator algebra $V_{L_2}$ through an icosahedral subgroup of $\operatorname{Aut}(V_{L_2})\cong PSL_2(\mathbb{C})$. We prove that the fixed-point vertex operator algebra $V_{L_2}^{A_5}$ is strongly rational.
