Research exposition (monographs, survey articles) pertaining to nonassociative rings and algebras (17-02) Virasoro and related algebras (17B68) Vertex operators; vertex operator algebras and related structures (17B69) Global differential geometry of Hermitian and Kählerian manifolds (53C55) Exotic index theories on manifolds (58J22) Infinite-dimensional groups and algebras motivated by physics, including Virasoro, Kac-Moody, (W)-algebras and other current algebras and their representations (81R10) Two-dimensional field theories, conformal field theories, etc. in quantum mechanics (81T40)
This monograph deals with two aspects of the theory of elliptic genus: its topological aspect involving elliptic functions, and its representation theoretic aspect involving vertex operator super-algebras. For the second aspect, elliptic genera are shown to have the structure of modules over certain vertex operator super-algebras. The vertex operators corresponding to parallel tensor fields on closed Riemannian spin Kähler manifolds such as Riemannian tensors and Kähler forms are shown to give rise to Virasoro algebras and affine Lie algebras. This monograph is mainly intended for topologists and it includes accounts on topics outside of topology such as vertex operator algebras.
