Genus two partition and correlation functions for fermionic vertex operator superalgebras. I. (Q639376): Difference between revisions

This paper is a very meaningful work for string and conformal field theory. Here the authors study the genus two partition and \(n\)-point correlation functions for vertex operator superalgebras on a genus two Riemann surface formed by sewing two tori together. A closed formula is obtained for the genus two continuous orbifold partition function in terms of an infinite dimensional determinant with entries arising from torus Szegö kernels. The authors prove that the partition function is holomorphic in the sewing parameters on a given suitable domain and describe its modular properties. Using the bosonized formalism, a new genus two Jacobi product identity is described for the Riemann theta series. The authors compute and discuss the modular properties of the generating function for all \(n\)-point functions in terms of a genus two Szegö kernel determinant. The authors also show that the Virasoro vector one point function satisfies a genus two Ward identity.
