Twisted intertwining operators for finite automorphism groups

Let VV) be a simple vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: V(0)=C1V_{(0)}=\mathbb{C}\mathbf{1}, V(n)=0V_{(n)}=0 for n<0n<0, and the contragredient VV' is equivalent to VV as a VV-module; every grading-restricted generalized VV-module is completely reducible; and VV is C2C_{2}-cofinite, meaning that

dimV/C2(V)<,\dim V/C_{2}(V)<\infty,

where C2(V)C_{2}(V) is spanned by the elements Resxx2Y(u,x)v\operatorname{Res}_{x}x^{-2}Y(u,x)v for u,vVu,v\in V, and YY is the vertex operator map. Let GG be a finite group of automorphisms of VV. The twisted intertwining-operator conjecture. The twisted intertwining operators among the gg-twisted VV-modules for all gGg\in G satisfy associativity, commutativity, and modular invariance. If true, this would provide the genus-zero and genus-one parts of the chiral orbifold conformal field theory associated with (V,G)(V,G) and would give the corresponding category of twisted modules a natural GG-crossed braided tensor-category structure with additional properties. The conjecture remains unresolved in the supplied source.
