Orbifolds and cosets via invariant theory Linshaw, Andy

Description

The orbifold and coset constructions are standard ways to create new vertex algebras from old ones. It is believed that orbifolds and cosets will inherit nice properties such as strong finite generation, C_2-cofiniteness, and rationality, but few general results of this kind are known. I will discuss how these problems can be studied systematically using ideas from classical invariant theory. This is based on joint work with T. Creutzig.
