Abstract: For a vertex operator algebra $V$ with conformal vector $omega$, we consider a class of vertex operator subalgebras and their conformal vectors. They are called semi-conformal vertex operator subalgebras and semi-conformal vectors of $(V,omega)$, respectively, and were used to study duality theory of vertex operator algebras via coset constructions. Using these objects attached to $(V,omega)$, we shall understand the structure of the vertex operator algebra $(V,omega)$. At first, we define the set $onSc(V,omega)$ of semi-conformal vectors of $V$, then we prove that $onSc(V,omega)$ is an affine algebraic variety with a partial ordering and an involution map. Corresponding to each semi-conformal vector, there is a unique maximal semi-conformal vertex operator subalgebra containing it. The properties of these subalgebras are invariants of vertex operator algebras. As an example, we describe the corresponding varieties of semi-conformal vectors for Heisenberg vertex operator algebras. As an application, we give two characterizations of Heisenberg vertex operator algebras using the properties of these varieties.
