Convergence conjecture for pseudo-qq-traces of products of intertwining operators

Let VV be a vertex operator algebra satisfying the conditions in the earlier conjecture on products of twisted intertwining operators, and let GG be a finite group of automorphisms of VV. For g1,g2,g3,g4Gg_{1},g_{2},g_{3},g_{4}\in G, consider the pseudo-qq-trace series of products of intertwining operators, with q=qτ=e2πiτq=q_{\tau}=e^{2\pi i\tau}. Convergence conjecture. The series is absolutely convergent in the region

1>qz1>qz2>qτ>0,1>|q_{z_{1}}|>|q_{z_{2}}|>|q_{\tau}|>0,

and analytically extends to a multivalued analytic function in the region

Im(τ)>0,z1z2+kτ+l(k,lZ).\operatorname{Im}(\tau)>0,\qquad z_{1}\ne z_{2}+k\tau+l\quad (k,l\in\mathbb{Z}).

Moreover, each singular point z1=z2+kτ+lz_{1}=z_{2}+k\tau+l is regular: every branch of the multivalued analytic function has, in a neighborhood of that point, an expansion of the form

p=0Kj=1M(z1z2+kτ+l)rj(log(z1z2+kτ+l))pfj,p(z1z2+kτ+l),\sum_{p=0}^{K}\sum_{j=1}^{M}(z_{1}-z_{2}+k\tau+l)^{r_{j}}\bigl(\log(z_{1}-z_{2}+k\tau+l)\bigr)^{p}f_{j,p}(z_{1}-z_{2}+k\tau+l),

where rjRr_{j}\in\mathbb{R} for j=1,,Mj=1,\ldots,M, and each fj,p(z)f_{j,p}(z), for j=1,,Mj=1,\ldots,M and p=0,,Kp=0,\ldots,K, is analytic on a disk containing 00. This conjecture concerns the analytic behavior of pseudo-qq-traces in orbifold conformal field theories; the source attributes it to prior work on open problems and orbifold theory, and the status is not resolved in the supplied text.
