Orbifold conjecture for twisted intertwining operators

Let VV be a vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: VV is simple, 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; 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 Resxx2Y(u,x)v\operatorname{Res}_{x}x^{-2}Y(u,x)v for u,vVu,v\in V; and every grading-restricted generalized VV-module is completely reducible. Let GG be a finite group of automorphisms of VV.

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.

This is presented as a main conjecture for orbifold conformal field theory and is intended to provide the structural properties needed to construct the orbifold theory. The supplied text gives no resolution evidence.
