Vector Bundles of Coinvariants for Admissible Affine Vertex Operator Algebras
Abstract
Simple affine vertex operator algebras Lk(g) at non-integral admissible levels k are generally neither C2-cofinite nor rational. Despite the absence of these standard finiteness conditions, we prove that the sheaf of coinvariants (and, dually, of conformal blocks) of ordinary modules in the category 𝒪k forms a vector bundle over the moduli space ℳ̅0,n of stable n-pointed genus-zero curves. The proof relies on establishing the finite-dimensionality of genus-zero coinvariants, a vanishing theorem that isolates ordinary admissible modules at the boundary, and a smoothing theorem enabled by partial strong identity elements in the mode transition algebra. Consequently, admissible affine vertex operator algebras supply a rich class of non-rational, non-C2-cofinite examples in which vector-bundle behavior is preserved for a well-behaved subcategory of modules.
