Twisted Modules over Lattice Vertex Algebras

Abstract

For any integral lattice $Q$, one can construct a vertex algebra $V_Q$ called a lattice vertex algebra. If $σ$ is an automorphism of $Q$ of finite order, it can be lifted to an automorphism of $V_Q$. In this paper we classify the irreducible $σ$-twisted $V_Q$-modules. We show that the category of $σ$-twisted $V_Q$-modules is a semisimple abelian category with finitely many isomorphism classes of simple objects.
